20: Xiao Chen was so angry that he vomited blood and teased Xiao Yi
"This is collusion between officials and businessmen!"
Xiao Chen was filled with rage, his eyes wide, teeth gritted, and a faint flush appeared on his dark face. He was angry to the point of death!
This world is truly dark...
He had no power or influence; did that mean he should just let this bastard Jiang Che bully him?
"Please watch your language..."
"Otherwise, the body camera is going to run out of battery again!"
A police officer behind Wang Mu said coldly, brandishing the electric baton in his hand as a warning.
They had seen plenty of troublemakers like Xiao Chen and naturally had a set of methods to deal with them.
"Verbal abuse of a public official is an additional crime!"
Another police officer chimed in at the right moment.
This one sentence instantly silenced Xiao Chen, even though he was so angry internally he wanted to vomit blood.
But the situation was against him, and despite his raging fury, he had to endure it.
He had already experienced the 100,000-volt baton once and did not want to try it again.
"I want to request legal counsel!"
Taking a deep breath to suppress his inner rage, Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.
Are you kidding me? Expecting him to pay Jiang Che one billion in medical expenses?
How is that possible!
Even if he threw that one billion into the water, he would never give it to this bastard Jiang Che.
By now, Xiao Chen had completely realized that this was clearly a trap set by that bastard Jiang Che, with the sole purpose of getting him in here.
Xiao Chen refused to believe it; he didn't believe those lawyers couldn't find a way to get him out of here.
As long as the money was enough, there were plenty of people willing to do it.
"Of course, that is your right..."
After returning to Qingteng Mountain Villa and just parking the car, a series of System notifications rang in Jiang Che's mind.
After being sent in this time, Xiao Chen had contributed a full 30,000 emotion points to Jiang Che.
It was evident just how furious this guy was right now.
Facing the sky-high compensation of one billion, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't give in easily, but Jiang Che was not panicked at all; he had plenty of ways to make Xiao Chen comply obediently.
Swindling the one billion RMB from Xiao Chen's hands was just the first step of the plan.
Once Xiao Chen came out of the station, the real show would just be beginning.
"I'm 50,000 emotion points away from a ten-pull; I need to keep working hard..."
Checking his gains for the day, Jiang Che nodded with satisfaction, his mood excellent.
Taking out his phone, he dialed his grandfather's number directly.
Since their last parting at the Jiang Family, the old man had returned to the Imperial Capital due to urgent business.
Now that there was something he needed the old man's help with, Jiang Che naturally wouldn't be polite.
After a series of busy signals, the call was quickly answered, and a voice full of vigor came through.
"Hello?"
"Grandson, how do you have time to call Grandpa?"
"Spit it out!"
"Your grandpa is busy right now!"
Jiang Jianguo spoke in a boisterous manner, not being polite to Jiang Che at all.
Jiang Che was already accustomed to this. Knowing the old man's time was precious, he didn't dawdle and directly stated his thoughts.
"Grandpa, how much influence does our Family have overseas?"
As the premier financial conglomerate in Jiuzhou Country, Xingqiong Group had set up many branches all over the world, a fact Jiang Che naturally knew.
But he was somewhat unaware of how much influence the Jiang Family actually had overseas.
"Why are you asking this?"
The other end of the line was silent for a moment, then Jiang Jianguo's somewhat hesitant voice came through.
"It's nothing, just that a guy named Xiao Chen provoked me..."
"He is the leader of a group in Africa called the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group..."
"Your grandson wants to borrow the Family's power to eliminate this Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, which is why I'm asking."
Jiang Che didn't hide anything and laid out all of the messy things Xiao Chen had done abroad.
The Blood Wolf Mercenary Group committed all kinds of evil in Africa; the mercenaries inside were all desperadoes from various countries, definitely not good birds.
Jiang Che would not have the slightest psychological burden in killing these people.
"Although the Jiang Family's influence overseas is not as strong as in Jiuzhou Country, it's still no problem to crush a small mercenary group."
"For this matter, just wait for my news!"
"Anything else? If not, I'm hanging up..."
"Oh, right, Grandpa, remember to send me a copy of Xiao Chen's file."
"Got it, I'll have someone send it to you..."
Jiang Jianguo acknowledged, then hung up the phone directly.
"Xiao Chen, oh Xiao Chen, are you ready to welcome the big gift I've prepared for you?"
Jiang Che let out a sinister chuckle in his heart and then called Qiang Zi to give him a few instructions.
"Tonight, after Xiao Chen goes in, remember to arrange a few Great Masters with superb sword skills for him, and let him experience the feeling of being taken on head-on!"
"Don't worry, Young Master, I will definitely give Xiao Chen an unforgettable night!"
After finishing the arrangements, Jiang Che headed straight towards the villa.
He didn't see Xiao Yi in the living room or bedroom, and after asking a maid, he learned that the Little Loli was Cultivating in the back garden. Jiang Che didn't hesitate and quickly arrived in the garden.
The sun was setting, the dusk was late, and the afterglow of the setting sun poured down, illuminating the earth and casting layers of halos, mottled and dotted.
Xiao Yi was dressed in a purple long dress, her dark hair fluttering in the wind, her expression cold as she meticulously Cultivating the various footwork principles of Treading Snow Without a Trace.
In the setting sun, Xiao Yi's beautiful figure was like a dancing butterfly; her movements were smooth and flowing, done in one go, extremely graceful, making it a delight to watch.
Jiang Che did not make a sound to disturb her, just watching quietly.
After finishing her Cultivation, Xiao Yi stopped her movements and, upon glancing back inadvertently, discovered Jiang Che's presence.
A trace of an inexplicable look flashed in the eyes of the purple-clad Little Loli as she walked with small steps to Jiang Che's side.
Even if her personality was cold, she was still a human being.
After what happened last night, Xiao Yi had developed an inexplicable sense of attachment to Jiang Che.
"How is your Cultivation going? Is it smooth?"
Xiao Yi shook her head gently; Treading Snow Without a Trace, as a top-tier lightness skill, was obviously not something that could be easily mastered overnight.
Even though she was gifted, after Cultivating for an afternoon, she had only grasped some basics and hadn't even reached the introductory Realm.
"Cultivation is not something that happens overnight; you must pay attention to balancing work and rest..."
[Xiao Yi's heart ripples, emotion points +3344...]
Listening to the System notification ringing in his mind, Jiang Che smiled lightly.
Teasing this cold and aloof emotionless girl always brought Jiang Che a lot of pleasure and felt very fun.
"It's getting late, let's go back and eat..."
