Chapter 414 [Consecutive Moves] (1)
Hearing this, Chen Haodong had fully understood the reason. Bai Yunfei's current dilemma was caused by Luo Lie and his wife. Luo Lie's previous departure was more like a shrinking hand before punching, and a brief retreat backward was to hit the opponent more powerfully and effectively. As Luo Lie said, he would not let any opponent who had hurt his family.
After Luo Lie's return, he bought all the properties of Zhang Lingkong with decisiveness within three days. This proves that Luo Lie has to make a difference when he returns this time. Taking action on Zhang Lingkong's property first means that he and Bai Yunfei's joint efforts to manage for many days have completely failed. On the surface, Luo Lie took advantage, but from another perspective, it can be understood as his revenge on some form of revenge against them.
Bai Yunfei's foundation was brought to prison by Luo Lie, which made Chen Haodong feel inexplicably crisis.
Liang Qijun said: "Bai Yunfei conveyed the message through a lawyer, and hoped that you could meet him."
Chen Haodong shook his head and said, "Why should I go to see him? It seems that he and I don't have this kind of friendship."
The news Bai Yunfei received from the lawyer was not optimistic. He wanted to meet Chen Haodong, but Chen Haodong obviously had no intention of meeting him, and he deliberately put aside his relationship with him. Bai Yunfei can do only actively prepare to respond. Luo Lie's visit finally gave him a chance to face it directly.
Luo Lie brought a box of cigarettes to Bai Yunfei. Bai Yunfei took the cigarette handed by Luo Lie, lit it on the flame of the lighter in Luo Lie's hand, and smoked a sip of the cigarette hard. He didn't shave for two days, making him look much older. Bai Yunfei looked at Luo Lie through the smoke in front of him. Although he was close, he still couldn't see his appearance clearly.
Luo Liedao: "Is it still a habit to live?"
Bai Yunfei knew that Luo Lie was not caring about him. The answer he hoped to get should be that he was in pain, tossing and turning, unable to sleep all night. Bai Yunfei smiled and said, "It's not the first time he's in jail."
Luo Liedao: "It must be the last time."
Bai Yunfei looked at him and said, "Do you think I can't get out this time?"
Luo Lie said: "A person's greed often destroys himself. Mr. Bai still did not get a real lesson after experiencing the ups and downs of Tianjin."
Bai Yunfei thought about it carefully and replied: "I understood some things at that time and looked up many things, but money and power quickly lost them again. Perhaps it was because of the painful experience of Tianjin that I became worried about gains and losses, and I was more afraid of losing than others."
Luo Lie said: "Some things do not belong to you, so why are you afraid of losing them?"
Bai Yunfei said: "You mean Mu Sanshou's industry?"
Luo Lie didn't say anything.
Bai Yunfei said: "You should be clear that Mu Sanshou did not die at my hands, and those properties were also given to me by him for free."
Luo Lie said: "It's a pity that you have neither witness nor evidence."
Bai Yunfei said: "Luo Lie, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be even more cruel than me."
Luo Lie said: "For so many years, Mr. Bai and I have been in peace. I really don't understand why Mr. Bai had to make such a wrong move."
Bai Yunfei sighed and whispered: "People will inevitably make mistakes. I thought this could be done without anyone noticing."
Luo Lie said: "You should know that there is one thing I will never tolerate."
Bai Yunfei said: "Even if you can take away my property, do you think you can control those people?"
Luo Lie said: "I don't plan to care about anyone. Many people are interested in Mu Sanshou's industry. In fact, the fundamental reason why you fell into this situation this time is that you have received the focus of the concession. They will not allow a Chinese to have such a great power."
Bai Yunfei knew that Luo Lie was all about the truth. His power continued to grow, which would make the people in power in the concession feel uneasy. They did not want to continue to grow, and Luo Lie gave them an opportunity to deal with themselves.
Bai Yunfei said: "Do you think I will fail and never turn over?"
Luo Lie said: "You have no chance."
Bai Yunfei said: "What?"
Luo Lie said: "Except for you staying in prison forever, if you go out, you will definitely die on the streets."
Bai Yunfei clenched his fists, and he realized a reality. In the eyes of outsiders, the fact that he killed Mu Sanshou and occupied Mu Sanshou's property had become a fact. In the past, his subordinates might have all turned against each other and raised the banner of revenge for Mu Sanshou.
Bai Yunfei said: "Tell me and Ye Qinghong, I'm sorry."
Luo Lie stood up and walked outside. When he came to the door, he whispered: "Apology is useless for what happened."
When Luo Lie returned home, he found that Cheng Yufei was waiting for him. Cheng Yufei and Ye Qinghong had been chatting for a while. Ye Qinghong smiled and said, "Why are you back? Miss Cheng has been waiting for you for a long time."
Cheng Yufei smiled and said, "I should blame me for coming here uninvited."
Ye Qinghong said: "Since you are here, stay here for lunch, I'll ask Ma Wu to prepare." She got up to prepare.
Cheng Yufei said: "No, I'll leave after I finish speaking."
Luo Lie sat down opposite Cheng Yufei: "What's wrong with Miss Cheng looking for me?"
Cheng Yufei said: "Have you seen sparrows?"
Luo Lie shook his head: "I haven't contacted her since I came back."
Cheng Yufei said: "That's it." Her expression seemed a little disappointed.
Luo Lie said: "Did she have any trouble?"
Cheng Yufei said: "She disappeared suddenly. I couldn't contact her no matter how hard it was. And the servants in her family said that she did not leave any explanation when she went out this time."
Luo Lie frowned and said, "When did it happen?"
"It's been two days, more than forty-eight hours."
Luo Lie said: "Do you doubt anything?"
Cheng Yufei said: "I hope she is fine. I went to find her a few days ago. At that time, I met Zheng Wanren, the eldest elder of the thief, where did she meet her."
Luo Lie said: "She has always had a good relationship with the thief. Maybe you should go to Chen Haodong to ask."
Cheng Yufei said: "A lot of things have happened recently, and I am worried about her safety."
Luo Liedao: "Have you called the police?"
Cheng Yufei said: "No, the police station will not be interested in a possible disappearance case. There are too many things they have to deal with every day."
Luo Lie said: "Let's do it. I happened to make an appointment with Chen Haodong in the afternoon. I'll go and ask him."
Cheng Yufei said, "I hope he can know some news." After saying that, she said, "I heard that Bai Yunfei's arrest was related to you?"
Luo Lie said: "I am just a witness."
Cheng Yufei whispered: "Did he plan the assassination outside a French restaurant?"
Luo Lie said: "I don't know, but this time Qinghong believes that she should stand up for Mr. Mu's death and should give her godfather justice."
Cheng Yufei looked at Luo Lie. Although Luo Lie refused to admit it, she still insisted that Bai Yunfei's trouble was caused by the previous assassination. His actions finally angered Luo Lie. Luo Lie and his wife, who had an indifferent attitude towards Bai Yunfei taking over Mu Sanshou's property, took action, and put Bai Yunfei to death as soon as they took action.
Cheng Yufei did not sympathize with Bai Yunfei. He was considered dead because of what Bai Yunfei did in the French Concession. If Ye Qinghong was assassinated, it would be natural for him to deal with him.
Cheng Yufei said: "Bai Yunfei has been operating in Huangpu for many years and still has a very huge force. If you decide to testify, you should be more careful."
Luo Lie said: "I will be careful."
Cheng Yufei said: "I heard that you are a thief now?"
Luo Lie smiled and said, "There are all kinds of rumors."
It is not a rumor that Luo Lie joined the thief sect. Not only did Fu Bo accept him as a closed disciple, he also officially recommended Luo Lie to become the leader of the thief sect. While Luo Lie returned to Huangpu, Fu Bo traveled around the country to contact the various branches of the thief sect, informed the leaders of various places of the local officials of this decision, and informed everyone that Luo Lie had received an iron warrant, which means that Luo Lie had become the leader of the sect with just a legitimate reputation.
Chen Haodong was also in extreme panic, but the news that Luo Lie received the iron warrant was not confirmed. He believed that this was probably the news that Uncle Fu deliberately spread, to confuse people's hearts and divide the thief inside the sect. Luo Lie and Chen Haodong took the initiative to propose this meeting, and Chen Haodong also believed that it was time to showdown with Luo Lie.
Luo Lie came on time, and Chen Haodong was waiting for him in his office. Luo Lie did not come alone this time. There were two accountants and a lawyer accompanying him. Chen Haodong did not know the identity of the entourage. He thought Luo Lie was worried that he would attack him, so he brought his bodyguard and deliberately sarcastic: "It is said that Mr. Luo is extremely brave. It's just like this when he sees him today. You shouldn't worry that I will be unfavorable to you, right? This is the public concession, and I have always been a law-abiding citizen."
Luo Lie shook his head and said, "I'm not worried, but I don't know if Mr. Chen is a law-abiding citizen." He introduced his identity as his entourage to Chen Haodong.
Chen Haodong was stunned when he heard this and asked, "What do you mean? What does it mean to bring an accountant and a lawyer to our company?"
Luo Lie signaled them to go out and wait first. When only he and Chen Haodong were left in the office, he said: "Mr. Chen, I believe you have heard of Uncle Fu's acceptance of me as his disciple."
"It's his freedom to accept who he is an apprentice, what does it have to do with me?"
Luo Liedao: "Actually, there is still some connection. Uncle Fu believes that I am the most suitable candidate for the sect leader, so he has officially recommended me to be the sect leader."
"What qualifications do you have to be the leader of the sect?" Chen Haodong sneered: "Apart from an old and confused master, what does it have to do with our sect stealing?"
Luo Lie said: "I think so too, but Uncle Fu is my master, and I am a formal member of the thief. According to the rules of this sect, any disciple of the sect has the qualifications to become the sect leader. What's more, I am recommended by Uncle Fu, the respected elder. Although you are the son of the former sect leader, why are you unable to become the sect leader yet?"
