439: Jiang family
“You wouldn’t like this type, would you?”
“How should I put it… While he’s not the type we usually like in our circle, and he clearly looks like a straight man, for a straight man to be so handsome and refined, I’m genuinely interested in getting to know him.”
“You.”
Jiang Kexin sighed lightly, looking helpless with Xia Ming.
“Sister Kexin, you’re not jealous, are you?”
“Me? Jealous?”
Jiang Kexin raised an eyebrow. Originally, she didn’t feel anything, but after Xia Ming said that, a strange feeling still arose within her.
“Alright, I admit I am indeed interested in Xiao Yun. If you were a beauty so stunning that gods and men alike would be enraged, and you dared to set your sights on Xiao Yun, I would definitely find a way to secretly eliminate you.”
“Sister Kexin is so cruel…”
“But luckily you’re a man, and you yourself said Xiao Yun is a straight man and wouldn’t like you. So, congratulations on saving your life.”
Jiang Kexin’s eyes crinkled in a smile, yet she spoke chilling words.
At this moment, watching their interaction, Li Wenzhe, who was beside them, also felt a shiver and dared not say a word.
However, when Xiao Yun was mentioned, the strong hatred in his eyes was still hard to conceal.
“Damn Xiao Yun… to plot against me!”
Just then.
Li Wenzhe’s hatred for Xiao Yun at this moment was not like the petty squabbles before, but rather like a deep-seated blood feud.
Because.
Just before, Xiao Yun had made a bet with him.
Li Wenzhe remembered the content of the bet very clearly. Xiao Yun had boasted that he would land a fighter jet weighing dozens of tons on the roof of his house. If he could do it, Li Wenzhe would have to find a way to help him deal with that helicopter.
At the time, Li Wenzhe thought it was just a joke.
However, he never expected that this guy actually had a helicopter! And it was a special type of fighter jet from a restricted area, a blue eagle helicopter!
And this guy could actually, without anyone knowing, land this helicopter on the roof of his house!
WTF!
When Li Wenzhe received the call from his father, he was utterly collapse.
If he lost the bet and didn’t follow through with the terms, he wouldn’t be able to face Xiao Yun ever again!
This was something he could not accept.
Fortunately, the old man Li Lei knew some people on the southeastern border who had a way to successfully sell this helicopter, it would just take a bit longer.
At that time, Li Wenzhe naively thought that his grandfather, along with his father, would help him resolve all difficulties and obstacles, just like every other time he had caused trouble before.
However, later events proved Li Wenzhe wrong.
And, he was terribly wrong!
The transaction of the blue eagle helicopter was originally a secret operation of the Li family, with his father, Li Chenshu, going to negotiate.
The Li family had clearly already established connections with various leaders and obtained a stack of permits. They had even artificially created a common disguise for the exterior of the blue eagle helicopter, all for the purpose of transporting this special helicopter abroad.
However, just three days ago.
Li Chenshu had already finalized the deal abroad and was preparing to transport the helicopter as planned when their home was heavily surrounded!
Li Wenzhe didn't know the origin of these people. They first accurately investigated the Li family's private transaction of the blue eagle helicopter, then dealt with all the large and small personnel who had worked for the Li family in this matter, and finally successfully confiscated the blue eagle helicopter.
And that wasn't all.
These leaders, whose origins were unknown, also uncovered a series of illegal and irregular activities of the Li family in Haibei City and began to file cases for gradual investigation.
In an instant, the Li family underwent earth-shattering changes!
First, various signed contract projects were breached, then the Jiang family, who had always been their closest allies, issued a statement severing ties with the Li family. Following that, the Li family was jointly attacked by several other major families in Haibei City.
Leijian Group, which had once wielded immense power in Haibei City, became a rat that everyone wanted to beat overnight!
Li Wenzhe didn't understand why this was happening at the time; he couldn't comprehend why the Li family had undergone such a drastic change.
Clearly, other leaders had investigated Haibei City before, but at that time, they were all happily dining, drinking, and chatting with his grandfather, Li Lei.
How did everyone's attitude towards the Li family completely change ever since the blue eagle helicopter incident began?
And although Li Wenzhe couldn't see clearly, as the head of Leijian Group, the old man Li Lei saw it very clearly.
At that time, he only said one thing to Li Wenzhe: “Be careful of the person who sent the blue eagle helicopter!”
And from Li Wenzhe’s perspective, his grandfather meant to be careful of Xiao Yun.
But, in his eyes, Xiao Yun was just a GTI newcomer with a little bit of strength in the restricted area, right?
Could it be that this series of events was all caused by Xiao Yun’s planning?
Then Xiao Yun’s ability is too terrifying!
During this period, everyone in the Li family spent each day in trepidation.
Fortunately, the old man Li Lei seemed to know that he had committed many evils in his youth. When the final judgment arrived, his emotions were quite calm and peaceful.
Perhaps he had lived to this age, and had lived enough. Anyway, he had earned so much money over the years, and it wasn't a loss to be brought down now.
Otherwise, Li Wenzhe would have died of guilt!
And amidst this massive upheaval, there was a group of people in the Li family who remained calm.
That was Jiang Kexin’s family.
Although the Jiang family was intermarried with the Li family, the two families actually had no real relationship, but rather handled their own affairs separately.
And when the Li family fell into decline, the Jiang family chose to remain aloof and observe, which was in line with everyone's expectations.
After all, unlike the Li family, the Jiang family was a family from Jinghai City. Although they were not the top family in Jinghai City, their influence was considerable.
Not to mention, it’s better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. As a family from Jinghai City, the Jiang family’s power and foundation were probably thousands of times greater than that of the Li family.
“Li Wenzhe, still holding a grudge against Xiao Yun?”
It seemed as if she could read his thoughts from his expression, Jiang Kexin said with a faint smile.
“He is about to make my family fall apart, how can I not hate him?”
“Oh? Those two sentences were very cultured, not like something you would say.”
“Hmph, just something I saw in a TV show…”
“However, do you really think all of this was caused by Xiao Yun?”
