133: Private clubs, colluding with each other

If this company became his own, then as one falls and the other rises, even the top brass of the Dragon Kingdom would have to give him some face.

Ahem, but for now, that's just wishful thinking.

A person shouldn't get lost in unrealistic fantasies.

He checked the system upgrade progress bar.

It should be a matter of within a week to reach the next level.

Once he reached the next level, he would have new character unlock slots.

The only characters who hadn't reached full stars yet were Pan Yuyao and Sasha.

While waiting for the upgrade, he needed to seize the opportunity and get their star levels maxed out sooner.

With this anticipation.

Zhang Yu yawned.

The day ended perfectly.

Time to sleep.

Noticing the light in the second-floor bedroom turn off.

Xiong Tingting, who was on the first floor, finally felt relieved.

Only when he was asleep did she feel the unease in her heart diminish significantly.

There was no other reason.

Who could handle Zhang Yu?

She looked at the empty living room.

She suddenly thought of Lu Hanxiao, Pan Yuyao, and the others.

Could it be?

A thought crossed her mind, and she recalled their usual way of interacting.

She suddenly realized that the three of them...

Were probably also...

Just as she was thinking this.

Her phone suddenly rang.

It gave her a start.

She glanced at the caller ID and answered the call.

"Hello, Tingting, what are you doing?"

"I'm getting ready to sleep. Dad, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Xiong Tingting asked.

"I heard you're no longer a Flight Attendant and have transferred to a bank?"

Xiong Tingting didn't know how her dad found out.

However, she didn't know how to hide it, so she had to nod and say, "Yes. But I haven't started yet; I'm still waiting for the notification."

"It's a good thing if the contract is signed. Why didn't you tell the family about such great news?"

"I..."

She hadn't figured out how to explain it yet.

Her dad continued: "I called to tell you to come home tomorrow. You haven't been home in a long time. Everyone at home is waiting for you to have dinner together!"

"Got it!"

Xiong Tingting hung up the phone.

Her fingers trembled slightly, somewhat out of control.

...

"Bang!"

A teacup was smashed onto the floor, shattering into pieces.

In a private club.

In a large private room, several people were sitting.

"Is this person in the video Zhang Yu?"

A burly man with a full beard looked at the video on his phone.

On the screen, it was the scene where his own men were subdued by Zhang Yu and taken away by the police.

"It's infuriating! We were almost there, yet we lost at his hands!"

The Bearded Man looked at the bag on the floor.

He wished he could reach into the video and grab the bag.

That bag contained a set of blueprints he desperately wanted.

To get these blueprints.

They had made a meticulous plan.

They had simulated various scenarios.

They took the risk to strike and had even arranged for a pickup in the Urban Village.

But he hadn't expected.

Everything was under control, but he hadn't accounted for someone named Zhang Yu suddenly dropping from the sky.

"It's not just your people."

Opposite him sat an old man around 60 years old, with a 200-pound man standing next to him.

It was Ma Weiguo and his trusted subordinate.

"My people have also clashed with his several times recently, and we've suffered significant losses."

"Furthermore, Wu Zhengliang's second son died after falling off a cliff while racing against him. Oh, my poor, short-lived disciple."

Ma Weiguo squeezed out a few tears as he said this.

"No, this Zhang Yu must have powerful forces behind him!"

The Bearded Man said.

"Otherwise, Master Ma, you wouldn't have hit a wall repeatedly."

"Indeed."

Ma Weiguo nodded.

"I've also found some information. Every time they strike, it's people from Xinyi Group. I suspect he has high authority within Xinyi Group, but I don't know exactly what level."

"Xinyi Group?"

The Bearded Man raised an eyebrow.

"I've dealt with Xinyi before. If that's the only force he has, then I'm not afraid."

"However, Zhang Yu is closely related to Old Master Xiao, and the old man supports him quite heavily."

"Old Master Xiao? He's just an old man in retirement."

The Bearded Man laughed.

"My godfather is an active-duty big shot. A level higher than Wu Zhengliang."

"Then I really didn't choose the wrong person!"

Ma Weiguo stood up, speaking excitedly.

"Zhang Yu is our common enemy. We must join forces and eliminate him."

"Correct."

The Bearded Man nodded.

"I've never suffered such a huge setback. I must get revenge for this."

He clenched his fists.

Then he looked at Ma Weiguo again.

"Master Ma, your influence is far inferior to mine. You can join forces with me, but what's in it for me?"

The Bearded Man, although angry.

Was not a brainless person and wouldn't do things without benefits.

"Since I'm here, I naturally came with sincerity."

Ma Weiguo smiled and waved his hand.

The 200-pound strongman next to him walked over with a tablet.

"You can take a look first."

The Bearded Man saw photos of several beautiful women on the tablet.

He flipped through a few pages, each one drool-worthy.

"I never expected the Dragon Kingdom to have such stunning women. Master Ma, what's their background?"

"These are all women who are close to Zhang Yu. According to my investigation, each of them has had experiences of being alone with him."

Ma Weiguo smiled.

"I wonder which one you have your eye on, sir. I'll bring her over tomorrow."

"I think they all look good."

The Bearded Man laughed.

"Sir, handling them all at once might be a bit difficult and could easily expose us."

Ma Weiguo laughed.

"So, let's not be too hasty. Once Zhang Yu is taken care of, the rest will be easy to catch."

"Then tell me, which one is suitable?"

"I've also investigated, and these are the main ones currently in Jiangcheng."

Ma Weiguo pointed to some of the photos.

"If we're talking about the smallest background and the easiest to handle, it would be her."

"Good, good, good. That's great!"

The Bearded Man saw the person in this photo.

His eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands.

All of them were top-tier beauties, anyone would do.

He was even more motivated for what was to come.

"Then, Master Ma, I want to see this person tomorrow. Can you do it?"

He was testing Master Ma's sincerity and ability.

If he couldn't even handle this, there would be no need for cooperation.

"Rest assured, I will definitely bring her to you tomorrow."

Ma Weiguo guaranteed.

"Then... shall we have a pleasant cooperation?"

"Pleasant cooperation!"

The Bearded Man picked up a wine glass.

Ma Weiguo also raised a wine glass, "Pleasant cooperation!"
