Chapter 683: Chapter 721: Oblivious to DeathBrother Hu took a deep breath in secret, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and pretended to shake his hand, saying, "Damn, I just accidentally burned my finger with the cigarette butt, that hurt like hell."
Sun Dongran rolled his eyes and said, "I thought something had happened to you, you really scared me to death."
Brother Hu chuckled and said, "Itâs nothing, go on."
"Okay!" Sun Dongran, this guy, is just a hedonistic son of rich parents with no real schemes in mind. Brother Huâs act didnât make him sense anything amiss, and he continued, "That guy works at Dreamfly Company, now as a manager of the security department."
Brother Hu asked with a grin, "Just a manager of the security department, his woman canât be much of a big shot, can she?"
"Youâre wrong there," Sun Dongran grew even angrier as he spoke, "That guyâs wife is Xu Yingying, the general manager of Dreamfly Company. The thing that pisses me off the most is that I have been pursuing Xu Yingying for a long time, but not only did she reject me, she even married some lousy security guard. Could it be that Iâm worse than a damned security guard?"
At that moment, Brother Hu was a hundred percent certain that the Li Yifei mentioned by Sun Dongran was indeed the Li Yifei he had been worried about. Heizi offended Li Yifei and was immediately arrested, and it was a sure thing that he was done for. Now he was afraid that Li Yifei might come looking for trouble with him, and he was actively provoking Li Yifei, wasnât that seeking death?
However, he couldnât afford to offend Sun Dongran right now. If he said he couldnât provoke this Li Yifei, then Sun Dongran would probably cut off many business deals with him, which would be a considerable loss for him.
For a moment, Brother Hu truly felt like a guy who had married a formidable wife with an equally tough mother at home. Every time the mother-in-law and the wife quarreled, he was the one caught in the middle, feeling frustrated.
"Hey, Brother Hu, what are you thinking about? Did you hear what I said?" Sun Dongran poked Brother Hu, frowning.
"Heard it, heard it," Brother Hu laughed, took a deep breath, and said, "I was just wondering, Young Master Sun, have you looked into this Li Yifei thoroughly?"
"What for? Just a lousy security guard, and youâre asking me to investigate?" Sun Dongran looked puzzledly at Brother Hu, feeling like he was being overly cautious.
Brother Hu cleared his throat lightly and said, "Young Master Sun, this Li Yifei youâre talking about, Iâve seen him before. A few days ago, he had dinner in my restaurant and got into a conflict with a cousin of Heiziâs, then Heizi brought a bunch of people, but they still didnât manage to do anything to Li Yifei. More than ten people went down, all beaten by Li Yifei."
Sun Dongranâs eyes widened, "Just him alone?"
"Not alone, he had some accomplices, but... thatâs not the most important part. Young Master Sun, you should know what kind of person Heizi is. Do you think he would let it go so easily after losing face?"
"Wasnât Heizi arrested? Otherwise, he wouldâve killed him. This guy really had dumb luck. But no, this time he messed with me, and he wonât be so lucky. Iâll make sure he dies a horrible death," Sun Dongran sneered.
Huzi turned dark and patiently said, "Young Master Sun, donât you think this whole thing is very suspicious? Heizi had just had a conflict with him, and then gets arrested. I highly suspect it has something to do with him."
Sun Dongranâs eyes widened as he stared straight at Brother Hu. After a long while, he slapped Brother Hu on the shoulder forcefully and burst into great laughter, leaning back and forth as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Brother Hu furrowed his brows but didnât stop Sun Dongran. A blockhead like him probably wouldnât easily make too many connections, let alone consider that there are people in this world who might not show off, but are actually really capable.
After wiping away his tears, Sun Dongran finally managed to stop laughing, and after patting Brother Hu on the shoulder a few more times, he said, "Brother Hu... you really have quite the imagination. Are you saying that police station is owned by Li Yifei? And he can imprison anyone he wishes? Itâs definitely just a coincidence. If Li Yifei really had that kind of power, would his wife let him be just a manager at her companyâs security department?"
The only doubt lingering in Brother Huâs heart was about the position Li Yifei currently held. He had seen unassuming types before. Some very influential people actually donât act as though the world doesnât know how powerful they are. Instead, they hide their true identity, not wanting to be disturbed by others. But as far as he investigated, Li Yifei, after retiring from the military, hadnât really made a big splash in Mile City. Being a small manager was the biggest title he had, which didnât seem like playing it cool but really being just that.
"Also, think about it, why do so few people know that Li Yifei is Xu Yingyingâs husband? The reason is simple: because sheâs a company president, and Li Yifei is just a manager of the security department. It must be her doing behind the scenes. Otherwise, heâs just a lowly security guard, and in no way do they match in any aspect. Although I donât know how they got together, what Iâm sure of is that Xu Yingying doesnât want outsiders to know her husband is Li Yifei because she herself thinks Li Yifei would embarrass her."
Sun Dongranâs analysis seemed quite reasonable, but Brother Hu, relying on years of experience, still felt that it wasnât so simple. He said, "So what youâre implying is that this Li Yifei is just a nobody?"
Sun Dongran immediately slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "He is indeed a nobody, just good at fighting. Damn it, if it werenât for that, I could easily send a few guys to finish him off. Would I even need Brother Hu to take action?"
"Alright, then Iâll look into it further. Young Master Sunx, itâs not that I donât trust you, but you know the situation in the city is quite tense now. The crackdown on organized crime is very severe, so if we want to deal with someone, we need to be watertight. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, it will be very difficult for us to clean up the mess."
Sun Dongran, though somewhat dissatisfied with Brother Huâs caution, still needed Brother Huâs men to take care of Li Yifei. At this point, he couldnât push too hard and simply responded, "Alright then, Iâll await the good news from Brother Hu."
Brother Hu laughed heartily and said, "Young Master Sunx, donât you trust me? When have I ever failed to handle a matter youâve entrusted to me?"
Satisfied, Sun Dongran nodded and said, "Then Iâll take my leave. The last kidnapping really scared the crap out of me. Tonight, I need to find a couple of girls to have some fun and shake off the bad luck."
After seeing Sun Dongran off, Brother Hu sat down and thought it over carefully, feeling that the situation was still very dangerous. He had dealt with Li Yifei a few times and, with his influence, it shouldnât be too difficult to deal with him. But he always found Li Yifei too dangerous, which is why he had been putting the matter on hold.
Pulling out his phone, Brother Hu dialed a number. Once the call connected, he said, "Little Tang, look into Li Yifei for me again. I want details about everything he has been up to in Mile City, the more detailed, the better. And quickly."
Li Yifei had no idea that Sun Dongran was still looking for trouble with him. For such a spoiled young master, Li Yifei didnât take him seriously, but when it came to handling such situations, he was deft. As long as these pampered young masters didnât come looking for him, he preferred to ignore them. But should they go too far, Li Yifei had plenty of ways to deal with them.
Today, he was helping Ning Xinâer move, joined by Xu Shanshan, who was currently assuming the identity of his wife, Xu Yingying.
The place Xu Shanshan was moving to was not the same villa she had stayed in previously. It was located in the same community as Li Yifei, though not in the same building block. Moving for her was simply bringing some clothes Ning Xinâer had brought over, as well as accompanying Ning Xinâer to buy some necessary daily necessities. The house was fully furnished; the original owner hadnât moved in yet, but due to some issues, they had to sell it, which worked out perfectly for Ning Xinâerâs purchase.
"Yingying, as the boss of a company, you have so much to do. You really donât need to help with my move, do you?" Ning Xinâer was displeased with Xu Shanshan being there, even though she saw her as Xu Yingying, and couldnât help but speak her mind.
Imitating her sisterâs manner of speaking, Xu Shanshan replied, "How could I not? Arenât you Yifeiâs biological mother? Now that youâre living here, if I donât offer my help, how could I justify it?"
Xu Shanshan had previously imitated Xu Yingying so well that even Li Yifei had difficulty telling the difference, let alone Ning Xinâer, who couldnât tell at all at the moment.
Ning Xinâer added, "Whatâs there to justify? Itâs only a few things; Yifei and I will sort it out quickly. You should go back to the company."
"Why are you so eager to get rid of me? Donât tell me you want to do something with Yifei?" Unlike Xu Yingying, who was more reserved in her speech, Xu Shanshan was blunt in her accusation.
Glancing at Li Yifei, Ning Xinâer said with a smile, "What, are you worried?"
"What do I have to worry about? Iâm just afraid youâll be taken advantage of again. Yifei, this guy, heâs not so honest lately. If something happens between you two and then you canât be together anymore, wouldnât that be another hurt to you?"
With a smile blooming on her face, Ning Xinâer said, "What disadvantage is there? Yifei and I have been there before â where do you think our daughter came from? Besides, itâs not like you can stop it."
Xu Shanshan smiled sweetly and said, "Look at you, making it sound so trivial. Iâm not that petty. Heâs my husband, after all. If he takes advantage, itâs no different from taking advantage with me, right? Come on, letâs get moving, or Yifei will be done with school soon."
Ning Xinâer shot Xu Shanshan a glance and said, "All you do is talk. Have you even lifted a finger to help?"
At that moment, Li Yifei was at a loss for words. Xu Shanshan hadnât really helped at all besides bickering with Ning Xinâer. But he certainly didnât want to point that out â looking for trouble was the last thing he wanted. The present Xu Shanshan was even more vigilant over him than Xu Yingying.
