Lin Changfeng managed a smile that did not reach his eyes, a chilling glint flickering within those pupils that unnerved anyone who caught it!

This was already the second time Dongfang Shu subtly helped Xiao Jiu, advising him not to be impulsive.

This woman was truly no simple character.

Moreover, by the look of her, she seemed to have completely aligned herself with Ye Xunhuan; otherwise, why would Dongfang Shu risk offending the Lin family by continually helping Xiao Jiu?

If Lin Zhennan were dead, Dongfang Shu’s actions could be understood—after all, Lin Zhennan was the anchor of the Lin family.

As long as Lin Zhennan was alive, everyone had to show some respect!

But now, Dongfang Shu was not showing any respect at all.

Once Xiao Jiu calmed down, he looked at Lin Changfeng and said, "Lin Changfeng, how I handle things is none of your concern; you should worry about yourself!"

"Just wait until Auntie Rumeng arrives; you better be careful here or you might catch a slap!" Xiao Jiu said coldly, "You probably know Auntie Rumeng’s temper even better than I do, right?"

Lin Changfeng’s face changed slightly: "Are you trying to scare me?"

"I wouldn’t dare scare you!" Xiao Jiu spoke indifferently, "At most, I’ll just have my brothers be a little more careful when driving; if they see you, they’ll maybe just bump into you!"

"If someone dies, my brothers go in, and I’ll take care of their moms!"

"You..."

"Lin Changfeng, this is Jiangzhong City, not the capital. Here, I, Feng Xingjiu, call the shots!" Xiao Jiu’s aura suddenly shifted, imposing like a monarch: "I don’t care what you can do in the capital, but here, you’d better behave!"

"These days, people can choke to death on water; accidents can easily happen when driving a car!"

Lin Changfeng’s complexion began to flicker, unsteady and uncertain.

"Feng Xingjiu, do you think I, Lin Changfeng, am easily frightened?"

"I don’t have time to scare you!"

As he said this, Xiao Jiu drew out his cell phone with no intention of hiding it from the public, dialed Ma Yingjun’s number, and turned on the speakerphone for all to hear.

The call was answered in an instant.

"Brother Xiao Jiu, how is Brother Ye..."

"Xiao Ma, I’ll send you a photo later. Spread it among the brothers. If they see this guy on the street, create an accident scene. Whoever gets rid of him, I’ll give thirty million!" Xiao Jiu glanced at Lin Changfeng and said forcefully, "They might die in the process, but tell the successful brother not to worry—their mothers will be my mothers, and if they have kids, I’ll take care of them!"

"Alright, I’ll distribute the photo to the brothers once I receive it!"

Following that, Xiao Jiu hung up the phone.

After ending the call, Xiao Jiu turned on his phone’s camera and said to Lin Changfeng, "Come on, Uncle Lin Changfeng, give us a smile..."

At this moment, Lin Changfeng’s complexion turned utterly grim as if it could drip water!

Xiao Jiu was unmistakably threatening him, not taking him seriously at all.

"Feng Xingjiu, let’s see how long you can be so smug!"

As his words fell, Lin Changfeng snorted coldly and turned to leave the place.

"Drive carefully, yeah?" Xiao Jiu reminded him in a tone that was exaggeratedly friendly.

Meanwhile, Dongfang Shu covered her mouth and giggled lightly.

This Xiao Jiu sure changed quickly; no wonder he could become the big boss of Jiangzhong City’s underworld in just a few months!

After Lin Changfeng left, Dongfang Shu said to Xiaojiu, "Xiaojiu, I have some other business to attend to, so I won’t disturb Xunhuan resting. If he wakes up, please tell me right away!"

"Mhm!" Xiaojiu nodded, and with a look of gratitude, he said to Dongfang Shu, "Miss Dongfang, thank you for today. If it hadn’t been for you..."

"It’s nothing!" Dongfang Shu replied indifferently, "Alright, I’m leaving now!"

After that, Dongfang Shu left the place, taking Meng Qi with her.

Once Dongfang Shu was gone, Yan Qingdi sighed softly and said, "Feng Shao, you’ve really offended Lin Changfeng to death this time!"

"I’m afraid he won’t let you off easily!"

"As if he would let me off if I hadn’t offended him!"

"Alright, I won’t stay any longer either, but let me say this before I go: be careful. Lin Changfeng’s visit today was definitely not that simple!" Yan Qingdi said seriously, "You’d better protect Ye Shao properly. Of course, it would be even better if you could reach out to the Qin family. It’s not safe here!"

After saying that, Yan Qingdi glanced around the hospital ward.

Then, without staying any longer, Yan Qingdi turned and left the place.

Not long after Yan Qingdi had left, Ye Xunhuan climbed straight up from the bed: "Damn, I would have suffocated if they hadn’t left!"

If Yan Qingdi and Dongfang Shu were here at this moment, and saw what was happening in front of them, they would probably be so surprised that they couldn’t close their mouths!

Seeing Ye Xunhuan getting up from the bed, Xiaojiu chuckled, "Brother Xunhuan, how was my acting?"

"Not that great!" Ye Xunhuan quipped, "If it weren’t for Miss Dongfang, you would have definitely bungled it for me!"

"Xiaojiu, you still need to temper your composure. You should at least be able to keep your composure even if Mount Tai were about to collapse, right?"

"You think you could keep your composure if Mount Tai collapsed?"

"Talking back to me now..."

"Brother Xunhuan, it was really tough for me. I just wanted to kill all of the Lin family. Being able to perform to this extent was really not easy..."

Ye Xunhuan sighed softly.

He knew Xiaojiu was telling the truth. After all, his girlfriend was killed by Lin Qingyun. If it weren’t for the Lin family’s involvement, Lin Qingyun would have died many years ago!

Moreover, the Lin family had also managed to get Xiaojiu kicked out of his own house by his father. That grudge had always been pent up in Xiaojiu’s heart!

"Overall though, not bad. But I didn’t expect Dongfang Shu would actually help us!" Ye Xunhuan took out the cigarettes hidden beneath his pillow and lit one for himself, taking a light drag.

"I didn’t expect it either. Brother Xunhuan, what do you think she wants to do?"

"Don’t know!" Ye Xunhuan shook his head, "But she is definitely not helping us for nothing. There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world!"

"True!" Xiaojiu agreed, then changed the subject, "Brother Xunhuan, what do you think about Lin Changfeng suddenly coming to Jiangzhong City? And what was his visit to the hospital for?"

"What do you think it meant?"

"He definitely wanted to see if you were really injured or just pretending!" Xiaojiu said with a serious face.

"Anything else?"

"Could it be that Lin Zhennan sent him to investigate?" Xiaojiu speculated thoughtfully, "They might want to probe first, then make a move in the shadows to make you die faster?"

Ye Xunhuan laughed, clearly pleased, "Get ready. Lin Zhennan will definitely not be able to stay put. When he comes, then I can be discharged from the hospital!"

What Ye Xunhuan was waiting for was Lin Zhennan. If Lin Zhennan showed up, killing him would mean everything would be settled.
