Chapter 26: Chapter 26: The Weather is Getting Cold, the Lu Family Can Go Bankrupt Now Chapter 26: Chapter 26: The Weather is Getting Cold, the Lu Family Can Go Bankrupt Now In the surveillance, every move inside private room number eight could be seen clearly.
As the owner of X Bar, Qingwu had initially reserved a special room for herself that could monitor all the private rooms!
Only she had the access to this room!
The surveillance had been personally modified by her to see every detail in the corners.
The actions of the Drug King and Tarzan were all within the monitoring range.
Pei Jue frowned slightly, pointing at the box of US Dollars in Tarzan’s hand on the screen, “They actually plan to trade here?”
“It seems so.”
“Let’s call the police, if they successfully trade, who knows how many families will suffer.”
Qingwu nodded, “I’ve already called the police. This video is directly shared with the international anti-drug police.”
Pei Jue was slightly surprised.
“You have contacts with the international anti-drug police?”
“About three years ago, I dealt with them while on a job in Myanmar North.”
Pei Jue’s pupils slightly contracted; three years ago, he was also in Myanmar North!
“Did you save someone in Myanmar North?”
“I saved many people.”
Qingwu’s brows furrowed slightly, her glass-like eyes shining brightly in the dark, instantly reminding Pei Jue of the time three years ago when a masked girl reached out to him as he nearly fell off a cliff!
That girl also had such eyes!
So it was her!
Qingwu looked at the surveillance, her gaze falling on Shen Boyi in the corner downstairs.
Why was Big Brother here?
She looked at Pei Jue, “Let’s split up, you go to the third floor, there’s another group of traffickers meeting there, I’ll go downstairs for a look.”
Pei Jue grabbed Qingwu’s wrist, his handsome face filled with concern, “Be careful, I’ll take you home later.”
“Alright.”
…
In the card seat, Shen Boyi and the man in a suit sitting opposite were having a lively conversation, toasting each other.
Qingwu squeezed through the crowd and found Ye Zhi dancing, “There are a few bombs on the second floor, send someone to defuse them.”
“Hey hey hey, Boss! You’re everywhere… ah, I’ve just danced for five minutes, and now I have to defuse bombs, can’t catch a break!”
“Stop talking, get to defusing, I’ll give you half an hour.”
As High Tower’s second-in-command, Ye Zhi’s bomb-defusal skills were among the best in the international mercenary corps. Except for being severely beaten by Qingwu a few years ago, he completely admitted defeat and had no rivals.
“Half an hour, you underestimate me.”
“There are twenty-three.”
Ye Zhi: !!!
This was insane! If so many bombs caused a chain reaction, let alone the bar, half the district would be razed!
Giving him only half an hour to defuse twenty-three bombs was too heartless!
“If you don’t finish, I’ll dock a year’s salary.”
A year!
Indeed, all bosses were damn capitalists!
Ye Zhi was furious but dared not speak!
Shen Boyi’s voice sounded behind Qingwu.
“Xiaowu? What are you doing here?”
“Big Brother.”
Shen Boyi pulled Qingwu outside, protecting her from being bumped by random people, meticulously leading her to the card seat.
“Let me introduce you, this is my younger sister, Qingwu. Xiaowu, this is Mr. Mo.”
While introducing, Shen Boyi personally washed a glass, wiping it clean, then poured a cup of juice for Qingwu.
“Why didn’t you tell Big Brother you were coming here?”
“Just here to have fun.”
Lu Mingchuan’s annoying face flashed through Shen Boyi’s mind. He frowned and asked, “Are you alone?”
“I have a friend, he’s upstairs.”
Being upstairs meant not meeting with Lu Mingchuan as planned, and Shen Boyi breathed a sigh of relief.
“Xiaowu, it’s not that Big Brother doesn’t want you to go out, but people outside are really dangerous. Next time, let Big Brother know in advance, and if necessary, take a brother with you. Never go out alone!”
Qingwu: “…”
She really wanted to tell Big Brother that she was eighteen, not eight.
But seeing Shen Boyi’s worried and pained face, and his almost tangible concern, Qingwu felt warmth in her heart.
“Okay, I’ll listen to Big Brother.”
Mr. Mo, who was being ignored, was extremely surprised to see Shen Boyi like this.
A decisive oil tycoon in the business world, a negotiation expert for contracts worth hundreds of millions, turned out to be like this in front of his sister?
“It’s getting late, Big Brother will take you back.”
“No need, I’ve arranged it with a friend, he’ll take me home.”
Shen Boyi nodded, reaching out to ruffle Qingwu’s hair.
Qingwu’s peripheral gaze caught sight of a few plainclothes officers, and she gave Shen Boyi a sweet smile, “Big Brother, my friend is here, I’m leaving.”
Shen Boyi felt uneasy but didn’t want to meddle too much and make Qingwu unhappy, so he just gave her a ton of reminders, watching her meet up with a few people in the crowd.
Mr. Mo’s glasses were about to fall off!
Shen Boyi turned around, the warmth on his face disappearing, replaced by a touch of coldness.
“Mr. Mo, about the Lu Family in Ning City that we mentioned earlier, I want them bankrupt within a month. Preferably make it big, I want everyone to know about their bankruptcy.”
The Lu Family in Ning City was a minor family in the eyes of the Shen Family, not worthy of Shen Boyi’s personal attention.
Shen Boyi approached him only because of the tens of thousands of marketing accounts he had.
The Lu Family was really lucky, a bankruptcy could still make Shen Boyi care.
“Rest assured, President Shen.”
…
The international police stood in front of Qingwu, speaking respectfully, “The organization received the video you sent. We can definitely capture the Drug King and Tarzan this time!”
Thanks to Qingwu’s help, many anti-drug operations had been conducted smoothly!
Qingwu received a message from Ye Zhi that all the bombs had been successfully defused.
She nodded to the officers and sent a message to Ye Zhi.
“Announce that X will cease operations tonight, except for private room number nine on the fourth floor. Clear the venue without regard to losses.”
“Yes!”
All the speakers in X Bar began announcing the clearing out!
“Why is it closing so early today?”
“Let’s go, let’s go. You forgot that the last time the place was cleared, some people caused trouble, and their families all went bankrupt?”
X Bar had its own special security department, with over a hundred burly men standing at the entrance, faces darkened as they escorted guests out.
Shen Boyi’s car was parked outside; he didn’t see Qingwu even after waiting for a long time.
Mr. Mo reassured him, “President Shen, Ms. Shen should have left with a friend. I just saw all the internal guests leave.”
Shen Boyi was extremely anxious!
He called Qingwu over ten times, but she didn’t answer!
Just when he couldn’t hold back any longer and was about to rush in to find her, Qingwu’s call came in.
“Big Brother, I didn’t hear the phone ring earlier. I’m on my way home, see you at home.”
“Good, as long as you’re okay, Big Brother’s heading home too!”
…
Pei Jue’s car entered the main road of the second ring road in Beijing, merging into the traffic stream.
He glimpsed at Qingwu’s face out of the corner of his eye, the light falling on her gentle, beautiful face, like a serene beauty in a painting under the lamp.
“Tired? You can take a nap, I’ll wake you up in a while.”
His voice was remarkably gentle, with some blood droplets on his cuffs blending with the dazzling ruby cufflinks, intertwining ruthlessness and tenderness on him, as if angels and demons were whispering together!
Pei Jue took a bag from the seat behind and handed it to Qingwu.
The bag contained some fruit milk and cake brought out from the bar.
The action tonight was quite extensive, something he hadn’t considered in advance—whether Qingwu had eaten. Seeing her face a little pale might have been low blood sugar.
He blamed himself for not arranging everything in advance.
Qingwu looked at the bag placed on her lap, “…”
He still had quite a bit of blood on him, imagining the crisis earlier, yet at such a time, he still remembered to bring her something to eat?!
Qingwu suddenly felt a bit emotional about what kind of perverse opponent she had met.
Perhaps, also a friend…
Pei Jue watched her nibble on the cake, her fair side profile slightly pouting, flawless skin glistening and smooth, as cute as a little hamster.
“Qingwu, do you know the Pei Family in Beijing?”
“Do you have a task?”
Pei Jue touched his nose and coughed lightly.
“Sort of.”
Qingwu shook her head, “I don’t know, nor do I care. I’m not interested in aristocratic families.”
Her wish had always been to live peacefully and stably, without any intention to poke around those top aristocratic families.
This led to her only finding out the Shen Family was one of the three major aristocratic families in Beijing after she returned.
