Wei Zijun quickly responded, "Thatâs only proper, Mengxin. Donât overwork yourself."
"I know." Su Mengxin smiled and then left the cafe.
On the third day, Su Mengxin represented everyone and signed a wager agreement with Wei Zijun, Meng Qianjun, and Gu Yanan. Additionally, several respected elders from the major clans were invited to witness the agreement, ensuring that no one could default on their promise. Now, no one dared claim supremacy in Huaxia and disregard other families; violating such an agreement would make them adversaries of all major clans, which even powerful clans like the Su, Wei, Meng, and Gu families could not afford.
After signing the agreement, Old Master Su immediately called Su Mengxin, expressing his frustration, "Mengxin, how could you be so reckless? Do you realize what this agreement means?"
Su Mengxin replied calmly, "Grandfather, I know."
"You still signed it?"
"I had no choice. At this time, our familyâs support is limited. I can only rely on ourselves to ensure the Li familyâs survival."
Old Master Su fell silent, sighed, and said, "Mengxin, itâs not that Grandfather doesnât want to interfere, but since Yifei is gone, we really shouldnât confront the Three Great Clans head-on. Thereâs nothing to be gained from it."
"I understand, Grandfather, but I have my convictions. Besides, even if I fail, it doesnât seem like there will be any harm. At worst, Iâll join Wei Zijun, and that will align the Su family with the Meng family, bringing benefits to the Su family."
Old Master Su sighed again, "We do not wish to ally with the Meng family. There are things you do not know, Mengxin. Well, since youâve decided, I trust you, but you must prioritize your safety above all."
"I will." Su Mengxin hung up the call.
At this time, Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling faced similar circumstances. Their families were also pressuring them, but they supported the wager agreement because the Wei, Gu, and Meng families were more powerful than theirs. Although Li Yifei was also strong, he represented an individualâs strength, not that of a large clan. The benefits they could derive were brought by the Su family.
Without Li Yifei to maintain their ties, their closeness with the Su family significantly lessened, and joining one of the Three Great Clans would undoubtedly be more advantageous than disadvantageous for them.
Xiao Lingâer and Zheng Yuling deeply resented their familyâs machinations. Even if Li Yifei were truly in trouble, they did not want to be manipulated by their families. Preferring independence like Ning Xinâer and Meng Xiaofei, and knowing Li Yifei was unharmed but not yet back, they felt secure and outright refused their familiesâ demands. This also helped them see their family matters more clearly.
Ten days passed quickly, and under the joint suppression by Meng Qianjun, Gu Yanan, and Wei Zijun, Li Yifeiâs enterprises were nearly collapsing. However, Li familyâs last stronghold, their garden estate, still stood. Meng Qianjun and others knew that only by seizing this garden could they truly ruin all of Li Yifeiâs business ventures and win the wager.
Meanwhile, Brother Huâs business was being devoured by Meng Qianjun. Previously, with Li Yifei around, various aspects of Mile City took care of them, but now they not only lacked this care but were also being suppressed, making Brother Hu truly miserable.
Holding out to the end, with only two businesses left, Brother Hu would face only a dead end if he continued to resist and thus reluctantly gave up, being absorbed by Meng Qianjun.
At this time, Xu Yingying and the others had moved into the new garden. Although it wasnât fully finalized, this garden represented the foundation of the Li family. As long as the Li familyâs garden existed, it signified the persistence of the Li family. All people responsible for security there were strong, not typical underworld figures, and couldnât easily be swayed by Meng Qianjun or others. At least for now, their loyalty to the Li family ensured everyoneâs safety.
For Meng Qianjun and his allies to take this garden, they couldnât simply suppress it as they did with other Li companies. They had to truly own it, meaning they needed to eliminate those loyal to Li Yifei.
This also meant they had to resort
