The middle-aged man’s expression changed, and his eyes were filled with coldness. “It’s been so many years. Who visited him?”
The lean man hesitated for a few seconds, but still said respectfully, “According to the information from the guards, it’s Ye Chen.”
The moment the middle-aged man heard Ye Chen’s name, a hint of shock appeared on his calm face.
This name seemed to have awakened a memory that he had been keeping inside him for many years and despised.
“Ye Chen? Could it be that bastard from River City? That bastard didn’t die?”
The lean man nodded.
“I realized that it was the same name, so 1 investigated. It really was the Ye family’s piece of trash who fell into East Coin Lake! Not only did he not die, but he also became the number one martial arts expert in River City. He killed Yuan Jingfu, who was ranked in the top 4.00 of Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings!”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he was not surprised. Instead, he sneered, “It looks like this bastard has obtained some kind of opportunity, but so what? He’ll only taint the Jiang family’s bloodline!”
The lean man glanced at Mr. Jiang and asked, “Should we send someone to kill Ye Chen?”
The middle-aged man shook his head.
“There’s no need to kill him. This bastard is dispensable to us. I reckon that this guy won’t live long in Jiangnan Province… Just keep an eye on him.”
“Yes, Mr. Jiang!”
The lean man then left, leaving the middle-aged man in the room. The middle-aged man looked in the direction of Jiangnan Province through the window and said indifferently, “I thought you were dead, but you stayed alive like a cockroach. Interesting, really interesting. However, with your limited strength, you now want to investigate the incident back then? A mere ant wants to shake a giant tree? Simply delusional!”
Ye Chen returned to the villa and found that the living room lights were still on, and he could hear the sound of the television.
He opened the door and soon saw the two young ladies sleeping on the sofa.
Apart from Sun Yi, Xia Ruoxue had also arrived at the villa. It felt just like old times in River City.
There were still dishes wrapped in plastic wrap on the table, which the two girls had probably kept for him.
Seeing this, Ye Chen’s heart softened.
Xia Ruoxue’s long eyelashes trembled slightly. She then realized something and opened her eyes abruptly. When she saw Ye Chen standing not far away, she nudged Sun Yi awake angrily.
“Little Yi, that bastard is back! After all that work we spent cooking for him, he didn’t even answer his phone, and now has the gall to show up late at night! Come, come, come, it’s payback time!”
Sun Yi woke up as well. She smiled and went to the table to get some food. “I’ll heat it up. Ye Chen, you’re getting bolder and bolder. Ruoxue is very angry.”
Ye Chen was about to speak when Xia Ruoxue spoke up, “Forget it. I’ll forgive you this once on account of you saving my grandmother. Hurry up and eat. Look at how skinny you are. You must be starving. Sun Yi and I prepared a lot of food to celebrate our housewarming tonight, but we didn’t expect you to be so uncooperative.”
Ye Chen rubbed his nose and smiled. “I was delayed by some matters. Have you been waiting for me?”
Of course, Xia Ruoxue would not admit it.
“Hmph! As if we’d do that for you Little Yi and I just watched a movie and fell asleep. Let’s eat..”
The atmosphere in the villa was very warm, but outside, a storm was brewing.
At this moment, in a brightly-lit building, an emergency meeting had been convened, and many important figures were in attendance.
The atmosphere here was extremely heavy, and no one dared to look at Tang Ao.
They knew how much he doted on his son, and did not want to trigger unnecessary conflict.
Tang Ao’s expression was livid. Although he did not say anything, his anger filled the entire place!
Not long after, Tang Ao opened his mouth and roared, “I’m sure that you all are aware that my son was killed tonight!”
He slammed his fist on the marble table in front of him, turning it into powder!
He then looked around with an ashen face. “I called for this emergency meeting today with only one request! To use everyone’s information network and channels to help me find the murderer! 1 want to torture him to death with my own hands!”
He pressed a button, and a photo appeared on the big screen behind him.
On it was a rather blurry image of the back of a young man wearing a cap!
However, he could vaguely see that the young man was carrying a bundle in his right hand!
Tang Ao was sure that it was his son’s head!
After the incident, he checked all the surveillance cameras, but they had all been erased in advance!
The only clue was this photo that was accidentally taken by someone who was taking pictures of the nearby scenery.
Tang Ao pointed at the photo and said, “1 want you to help me find this man! Capture anyone who looks similar, or even wears similar attire!”
“Bring anyone without a proper alibi who even remotely resembles this person!”
“I, Tang Ao, would rather kill a thousand innocent people than let the right one go!”
Hearing this, the experts below the stage were all stunned.
Tang Ao was too crazy!
“Also, since this person could kill Tang Haichen so easily, it’s very likely that he’s on Huaxia’s grandmaster rankings! I will have my revenge no matter what background this person has or what rank he is!”
Xia Hongye listened to Tang Ao’s roars, but his eyes were fixed on the photo.
The back of the man in the photo was so familiar!
Be it the figure or posture, it was all too familiar.
His mind worked quickly. Suddenly, a cold and arrogant face appeared in his mind!
Ye Chen!
