The Huang family's biggest trump card: a vice-national level official.

Just as Huang Lin thought the other party had been tipped off by the Li family to give him a beating...

The person suddenly handed the coffee in their hand to him and said nonchalantly, "Your father has already been notified about the situation here. During this time, you just need to keep your mouth shut. I'll handle everything else."

Hearing this, Huang Lin, who had just lowered his head, snapped it up. Looking at the person before him with a hint of surprise, he asked curiously, "Who are you?"

Seeing his expression, the person smiled and asked back, "Who do you think I am?"

After saying that, they gave Huang Lin a meaningful smile and turned to leave.

Watching the person's departing back, Huang Lin's mind couldn't help but start racing.

The person was clearly helping him. Could it be someone his father found?

But that shouldn't be right. He had just been brought back to the station; how could it be so fast? Besides, he didn't think his family had any connections in Hong Kong Island.

Then there was only one answer: the person was one of Wang Shaojun's people.

Thinking this, he felt even more at ease. This way, he didn't have to worry about the Li family making a move on him inside, and he could take a good rest here.

After all, beating someone up just now had indeed been a bit tiring. He crossed his legs and picked up the coffee to take a sip.

Meanwhile!

The Li Family Courtyard!

Upon learning that his son had been beaten and hospitalized, Li Weijiang was fuming with rage. Everyone in Hong Kong Island knew he only had this one son and doted on him immensely. Now that he had actually been beaten into the hospital, it was as if they didn't respect Li Weijiang at all.

As the Vice Chairman of the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission, he felt it necessary to let the perpetrator know the consequences of offending the Li family.

Of course, as a family spanning both the political and business worlds, he naturally wasn't the only one in politics. He was the second oldest in the Li family; he had an older brother above him, and two younger brothers and a younger sister below him.

His eldest brother was in business, his third younger brother was the Director of Operations for the Hong Kong Police Force, and his fourth younger brother and fifth younger sister did not hold positions in Hong Kong Island. The former was a Company Commander in the Northern Military Region, while the latter was a Deputy Municipal Party Secretary in Nanzhao.

Most importantly, the Li family patriarch was the previous Commissioner of Police. Although he had been deceased for many years, the Li family's status in Hong Kong Island was still something few could shake.

With this kind of strength, it was no exaggeration to say that as long as Li Yangqing didn't court death, he could practically walk sideways in Hong Kong Island.

Yet now he had been beaten into the hospital. From this, one could see how furious Li Weijiang was upon hearing the news.

When he understood the full cause and effect of the incident, his expression became even more unsightly.

The other party had actually opened fire and injured someone. This shocked him greatly, and at the same time, he was very perplexed. He knew of the Shanghai Huang Family; Huang Xiao had even called him before.

He hadn't expected this to involve them again, and they even carried weapons. Their courage was far too great.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but mutter, "Utterly lawless. I gave your Huang Family some face last time, but don't think I'm afraid of you. This is Hong Kong Island, not a place where you can run wild."

After saying that, he picked up the phone and called the police station where Huang Lin was being held. To his complete surprise, after the chief there realized who he was, he bluntly said: "You have no right to interfere."

This infuriated Li Weijiang. Fine, you say I have no right to interfere? Then I'll have someone who does have the right call you.

Just as Li Weijiang was calling his brother, the Director of Operations, the Shanghai Huang Family!

After Huang Xiao learned of the events in Hong Kong Island, he didn't dare hesitate for a moment. He immediately picked up his phone and, after searching for a while, finally found a number he rarely dialed.

With a tap, he dialed the number. Soon, the call was connected.

An elderly voice came from the other end of the line. "Little Huang, it's so late. Why are you calling me?"

"I'm sorry, Elder Zhang, for disturbing your rest. It's truly an urgent situation. I'm afraid if I wait any longer, I'll be a white-haired man burying a black-haired one."

The old man on the other end of the phone fell silent for a few seconds before continuing, "What do you mean by that? What happened to that boy Huang Lin?"

"It's like this..."

Huang Xiao briefly recounted the events, exaggerating where necessary, and didn't forget to mention the corrupt things the Li family had done.

He had evidence in his hands anyway. When the time came to submit it to the higher-ups, no matter how much power the Li family had in Hong Kong Island, they would be stripped of everything.

By then, dealing with them would be a piece of cake.

After Elder Zhang finished listening to what he said, his breathing quickened, clearly incensed.

"Outrageous! To think such things are happening. Huang Xiao, is everything you just said true? After all, the Li family has many connections. If it's true, some people over there will need to be replaced."

The other party's form of address had even changed, showing how seriously he took the matter.

"Elder Zhang, even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare joke with you about this! I have evidence. I'll take a few photos for you first, and tomorrow morning I'll have someone deliver the items to you in Kyoto."

"Good. If it's truly as you say, the Li family... Hmph! Fine, I'll send word over to Hong Kong Island."

Hearing this, Huang Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Alright, Elder Zhang. Sorry to trouble you. I won't disturb your rest then. I'll bring Xiao Lin to visit you in a few days."

Once the other party hung up, Huang Xiao's whole body relaxed. He reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Talking to that person was truly high-pressure.

Speaking of Elder Zhang, his background was immense.

He was able to speak with him entirely because of the Huang Family patriarch. When the patriarch was young, he had saved the life of Elder Zhang's son.

At that time, to repay the favor, Elder Zhang wanted to promote him, but the old man politely declined.

The reason was simple: once accepted, the debt between the Huang Family and the Zhang family would be settled. The old man knew very well that for a high-ranking figure like him, if you have value, you might receive cultivation through this relationship. But he knew his own limitations.

He simply didn't have that kind of ability. Moreover, Elder Zhang hadn't reached his current level back then. In that case, it was better to leave it for future generations; perhaps it could play a greater role.

With this, the Huang Family had confidence. Huang Xiao had always kept this as his greatest trump card.

Fortunately, there had never been a need to use it, but this time, he used it without hesitation.

Not for any other reason, but because of the Wang family. He considered himself a keen judge of character, yet on Wang Shaojun, he saw only layers of mist and couldn't see through him at all.

It was a feeling of being able to see him, but not being able to reach out and touch him.

He had never encountered such a person before. So this time, he was gambling—even gambling with the fate of the Huang Family.

He only hoped Wang Shaojun wouldn't disappoint him; otherwise, his loss would be immense.

After all, the person he just spoke with was at the Sub-national Level!
