Chapter 270 Warning!
Jiangcheng stared blankly as Ye Longchen departed.
He sighed, this guy was truly ruthless, but he also had his own principles.
This time, he must have anticipated something...
Escorting the Gene Potion away, if he really got ambushed by Chu Junlin and Ye Wujie and the others, the outcome could likely be a narrow escape from death, yet he still resolutely chose to face the danger.
Perhaps, as he had said himself, he had waited too long for this day of revenge...
How could he forget the hatred for his mother's murder?
In the afternoon, Shen Tianrong also made a call, inquiring when Jiangcheng would set off.
Jiangcheng replied saying tonight.
"Alright, then I'll have Yuerong pack up and get ready to leave." Even knowing a storm was coming, Shen Tianrong remained calm and composed.
Jinling.
Chu Family.
Ye Wujie and Chu Junlin sat in the Chu Family's hall, both holding a wine glass.
A man in black walked in, knelt on one knee. "Mr. Ye! The message has come through, Ye Longchen and his party, they're setting off tonight!" Continue reading at empire
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Ye Wujie's eyes revealed a hint of icy murderous intent, "My dear brother, it's been a long time... It seems that tonight, we brothers will meet again."
"Send the order down, prepare immediately to intercept them on their way!" Ye Wujie waved his hand.
"Yes..." The man in black quickly retreated.
Chu Junlin furrowed his brows, "This Ye Longchen, to announce his move so high-profile, could it be a ruse?"
Ye Wujie let out a cold laugh, arrogantly saying, "I know my brother too well; the more he acts this way, the more it shows his confidence, and the more confident he is, the easier it is for him to capsize in the gutter!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Ten years have passed, and he's still the same as before."
"Despite him being quite formidable now, compared to me, he's still lacking a lot."
"Don't worry, today I have laid out a net of heaven and earth; even if he wants to escape, he won't be able to!"
Seeing Ye Wujie so confident, Chu Junlin didn't know what to say.
Just then, he received a phone call too.
"Mr. Chu, during this time, we've been secretly monitoring Jiangcheng and the others, and today we've noticed that his movements are unusual, as if he's planning to go to Jinling with Zhao Yuefei."
"Hm?!" Chu Junlin narrowed his eyes, "Explain in detail."
The man on the other end reported everything he had discovered truthfully.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Junlin took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Ye, I've just received information that Jiangcheng and Zhao Yuefei might also leave the city today."
Ye Wujie swirled his wine glass, "You mean..."
"Could it be that Ye Longchen's high-profile declaration is actually a diversion? To have those two carry the Gene Potion out of the city? I think it's possible!"
Ye Wujie let out a cold laugh, "You still don't understand him well enough."
"This brother of mine is cold by nature; I fear that Jiangcheng and Zhao Yuefei are nothing more than his pawns. Such an important item, he wouldn't trust anyone else to handle it."
"He deliberately let Jiangcheng and Zhao Yuefei leave the city to attract our attention."
"Once we fall for it, then he can personally deliver the Gene Potion to the Martial Arts Department."
Chu Junlin furrowed his brows, feeling that Ye Wujie was too arrogant.
Seeing Chu's odd expression, Ye Wujie huffed lightly, "How about this, you go intercept Jiangcheng and the others, and I'll deal with Ye Longchen? We split our forces, neither one of us will delay the other, and it just so happens, we can also settle our grudges, killing two birds with one stone!"
"This..." Chu Junlin hesitated for a moment, "Is that all right?"
Ye Wujie sneered, "What's wrong with it? Little brother, today I will let you see what real strategic planning is! I'll make you submit wholeheartedly! If you don't believe me, let's make a bet, who will end up with the Gene Potion?"
Seeing Ye Wujie's unyielding expression, Chu Junlin broke out in a cold sweat and chuckled nervously, "When it comes to schemes, depth, means, and strength, big brother is far above me, how could I dare to bet against you? That would be a sure loss for me, wouldn't it?"
Hearing this, an arrogant expression appeared on Ye Wujie's face.
"However, since the big brother has already said so, then tonight we shall split our forces and each settle our respective scores."
"Good!" Ye Wujie nodded.
Luo Qingyi, sitting beside them, heard their conversation and couldn't help but smile slightly, "Then, who should I go with?"
"Junior sister, I alone am enough to deal with Ye Longchen," Ye Wujie said indifferently. "You go with Chu. That way, we can avoid Chu accidentally letting the others escape."
Hearing the mockery in Ye Wujie's words, Chu Junlin could only laugh awkwardly in response.
At nightfall.
In Jiangcheng, a car rushed out of the underground garage of Zhao Corporation.
The car was quite ordinary.
Just a domestically produced car worth about a hundred thousand.
Zhao Yuefei was driving, her expression grave, while Jiangcheng had disguised himself simply and sat in the back seat, resting with his eyes closed.
He had a premonition that the battle tonight was inevitable!
Soon, they reached the outskirts of Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng stopped the car, this was the place he had agreed on with Shen Tianrong.
Seven or eight minutes later, Shen Yuerong and Steward Xiao also drove to the location.
"Let's go! What are you dawdling for?" Yuerong said with an irritated expression.
Steward Xiao said calmly, "Mr. Qin, I know I'm here on a mission this time. The item in the car is extremely important to our Martial Arts Department. Elder Shen entrusted it to you and had me accompany you to Jiangcheng, hoping you would follow my arrangements on the road, and preferably not create any complications!"
Jiangcheng smiled faintly, his gaze slightly stern, "I understand all that, but there's no need for such a stern warning, Steward Xiao. We are in a cooperative relationship, not a superior-subordinate one! I hope Steward Xiao can be more courteous in his speech, as I don't like being talked to in that tone."
What do you think?
