276: Chapter 271 Chai Cai Takes Action 276: Chapter 271 Chai Cai Takes Action The next day, a news report came out.
A runaway train on People’s Avenue had struck a pedestrian, causing severe injuries that necessitated hospitalization.
Ye Tian was oblivious to all of this.
Meanwhile, in the glittering Golden Splendor, the most luxurious entertainment club in Jiangcheng City.
Three voluptuous women were writhing their bodies in a private room, their seductive figures accentuated by the flickering lights and the sultry music playing in the background, making them all the more alluring.
Chai Cai was sitting back with his legs crossed, a cigar in his mouth, comfortably enjoying the sight of the hot dance.
He had been staying at the Golden Splendor for several days now, treating the gold-mine of vice as his home, splurging a six-figure sum every day, thoroughly indulging himself.
As for Wang Qingshan, he didn’t dare to even let out a peep.
He knew the extent of Chai Cai’s power—too frightening for him to provoke.
“Inviting the god is easy, sending him off is hard, alas!” Wang Qingshan sighed.
Fortunately, he had already notified his father, who lived in the provincial capital, begging the old man to intervene, to restrain Chai Cai a bit, kill that bastard Ye Tian as soon as possible, and then have Chai Cai return to the provincial capital.
The deity-like Chai Cai was becoming too much for Wang Qingshan to handle.
He estimated that the call should be coming soon.
Before the phone rang, all Wang Qingshan could do was to wait laboriously.
He certainly didn’t have the guts to instruct Chai Cai on what to do.
Sure enough, Chai Cai’s phone suddenly rang.
Wang Qingshan’s eyes lit up, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Chai Cai frowned, looked at the caller ID, and realized he had to take the call—it was from the provincial city.
“Hello, this is Chai Cai,” he said with apparent impatience.
Wang Qingshan quickly signaled the DJ to stop.
The booming sound system was instantly silenced, and the noise disturbance ceased, significantly improving his mood.
He hurried over to observe Chai Cai and the phone call.
An elderly voice came through the phone.
Chai Cai recognized it—it was Wang Qingshan’s father, Wang Yuetao, a venerable figure of the Wang Family in the provincial city, with considerable clout in the family.
Chai Cai couldn’t simply ignore his words.
In an old but authoritative tone, Wang Yuetao said, “Young people like to have fun, I can understand that.
But you’ve had your fun these past few days.
It’s time to get down to business, and remember, do it cleanly.”
His tone left no room for doubt.
After saying this, he hung up the phone without giving Chai Cai the chance to agree or object—he had to follow the orders obediently.
Chai Cai frowned, put down his phone, and stood up.
“Impressive, you’ve learned to snitch, even went to the old man,” Chai Cai sneered, fixing his gaze on Wang Qingshan.
Wang Qingshan looked embarrassed and dared not speak.
Facing absolute power, even though Wang Qingshan was a member of the Wang Family and had the backing of old Wang Yuetao, he didn’t dare to slight Chai Cai in the slightest.
Chai Cai snorted, “Find out where Ye Tian is hiding.
I’ll make my move today and kill him.
Remember to buy me a train ticket for this afternoon; once it’s done, I’ll head back to the provincial city.”
After saying these words, he left the room.
It was unclear whether it was intentional or accidental, but Chai Cai’s shoulder bumped into Wang Qingshan, who immediately winced in pain, muffling a groan, but dared not react.
He could only swallow his pride.
“Damn it, hurry up and find Ye Tian’s whereabouts.
Send this plague god away as soon as possible!” Wang Qingshan immediately ordered.
“Yes, boss!” The subordinate in white nodded in agreement.
The days since Chai Cai had arrived in Jiangcheng had been very distressful for the Boss.
His men in white knew that the Boss had been swallowing his pride, and now, they were all anxious to finally send this calamity packing.
Soon, the subordinates in white tracked down Ye Tian.
For Wang Qingshan, who dominated much of Jiangcheng’s underground world, this was not a difficult task.
“Boss, Ye Tian is now in the First Hospital.
Should we notify Mr.
Chai Cai and take him out now?” the subordinate in white asked respectfully.
Wang Qingshan immediately nodded, “That’s right.”
The subordinate in white stepped out of the room to inform Chai Cai.
Wang Qingshan turned to another subordinate in white, “Is the public welfare project done?
Has the Brilliant Subsidiary Company taken it over entirely?
How are the handover arrangements coming along?”
The other subordinate in white, who wore gold-rimmed glasses and appeared polished—likely a clerk or an adviser, acting as the general manager of the Brilliant Company—answered the question.
“Boss, you can rest easy.
A portion of the project has already been contracted out.
We don’t need to do anything, just count the money,” replied the manager in white.
Wang Qingshan was elated, “Well done.”
Then he solemnly reminded him, “Keep this matter confidential.
Not even the old man can know, and definitely not anyone from the government.
Do you understand?”
“You can count on me, I understand,” the manager in white nodded.
Technically, such public welfare projects are not allowed to be subcontracted; if found out, Wang Qingshan would face serious consequences.
Turns out, the person who had snatched Yun Xinyan’s public welfare project was none other than Wang Yuetao.
And Wang Qingshan was the chairman of the Brilliant Company’s branch in Jiangcheng City, fully in charge of the entire public welfare project.
To earn more money and avoid troubles, Wang Qingshan opted for subcontracting the project.
With the advice of the white-clothed manager, he divided the project into three parts and subcontracted it to six medium and small companies.
Without doing anything, he was able to earn a hefty commission.
Preliminary estimates put the sum at 300 million yuan.
As for the quality of the work and the safety index, those were not Qingshan’s concerns.
He couldn’t care less about the lives of the common people, especially since the work had already been outsourced.
At this moment, the door to the private room opened, and the white-clothed man who went to notify Chai Cai came back, saying, “Chai Cai has already gotten into the car.
Does the big boss want to go and see?”
“Of course, I want to go.
I have to see that bastard get killed with my own eyes, to avenge my Qian’er!” Qingshan said ominously.
When it came to avenging the death of Ye Tian, Qingshan paid extra attention.
The vengeance for his killed son, he would never forget.
Today, Ye Tian must die; he had waited for this moment for a long time.
“Call the driver over, I want to go to the First Hospital myself,” Qingshan ordered.
Immediately, Qingshan left with his white-clothed subordinate in a Bentley, heading straight for the First Hospital in the XC District.
Meanwhile, the assassin Chai Cai was also sitting inside the Bentley, looking arrogant and repeatedly urging Qingshan’s men to buy tickets.
He planned to kill Ye Tian and then leave Jiang City immediately, returning to the province.
“Mr.
Chai Cai seems very confident; I admire that,” Qingshan said from inside the Bentley.
“In my eyes, Ye Tian is nothing but a fart,” Chai Cai said with complete disdain, not taking Ye Tian seriously at all.
Qingshan quickly reminded, “Mr.
Chai Cai must not underestimate the enemy.
To my knowledge, Ye Tian is quite capable.
Many masters have been defeated by his hands.”
Chai Cai snorted coldly, “Those losers can be considered masters?
Stop joking.
In a bit, when you see Ye Tian, I will show you with my abilities what a real master is!”
Qingshan stopped the pointless chatter.
Chai Cai’s strength was formidable, one of the strongest he had seen.
Killing Ye Tian should be practically certain.
“How much longer until we reach the First Hospital?” Qingshan asked the driver.
“Ten minutes,” the driver responded.
…
At this very moment, Ye Tian, who was inside the First Hospital, was handling the discharge procedures for Wang Ke’er, completely unaware of the imminent threat of a powerful enemy like Chai Cai.
The discharge procedures were not complicated and soon concluded.
Ye Tian, holding the discharge notice and grinning, walked up to Wang Ke’er’s side: “Officer Peace, you’re finally being discharged.
Any thoughts?
Share with me.”
Still dressed in a blue and white striped patient gown, Wang Ke’er put her right hand on her hip, pointing towards the door, and said, “My thought is that you get out.
This lady needs to change clothes.”
Her police uniform was laid out beside the bed.
Suddenly, Ye Tian’s eyes lit up: “Changing clothes?
I’m all for it.
Do you need help with that?
I love helping out with such tasks, come on, let me help you with your pants first.”
“Get out!
Pervert!” Wang Ke’er scolded, and even made a gesture of holding a gun, aiming at Ye Tian’s forehead, and mimicked gun sounds, “biubiubiu, you’re already dead!”
“Your aim is so accurate; plotting to murder your own husband.
I’m dead, I’m really dead,” Ye Tian pretended to die and took the opportunity to lean on Wang Ke’er, his body rubbing against her chest, clearly taking advantage.
Wang Ke’er was both irritated and amused.
The two bantered and frolicked until Wang Ke’er finally managed to drive Ye Tian out of the room, and she changed back into her police uniform – a garment she had dearly missed wearing over the past few days.
Ye Tian pushed the door open and stepped back in, chuckling, “My goodness, you finished changing so quickly?
I haven’t had my fill of the view.
No, no, you have to change again; I didn’t see your ‘essentials.’
“See your big head, ghost!” Wang Ke’er put on her police cap, her appearance smart and impressive.
“Let’s go, the team leader is out of the hospital now.
You have to treat me to a meal.”
Ye Tian, walking side by side with her, laughed heartily, “Having a meal with a beautiful policewoman is something I can’t ask for enough.
How about we have seafood?
I’ve heard oysters can enhance sexual function; we could try it tonight.”
“If you dare take advantage of me again, do you believe I’ll shoot you?” Wang Ke’er said angrily.
Ye Tian shrugged, “Shoot me?
What law have I broken, to treat your lifesaver like this?
No wonder you have such a small chest; this is the blatant retribution, hahaha.”
“Bastard, who’s small?
Clarify that!” Wang Ke’er fumed, stamping her foot.
Today, her sister Wang Bingbing was busy and hence couldn’t come to pick her up from the hospital.
Ye Tian, the idler with nothing to do, had come to collect her.
Ye Tian ran outside, laughing, while Wang Ke’er chased after him furiously, looking just like a couple in love.
Neither of them noticed that a luxurious Bentley was parked across the street from the hospital.
The car window slowly descended, revealing a defiant face.
Chai Cai snorted, “Is that man Ye Tian?”
Qingshan’s eyes brimmed with hatred as he said sternly, “That’s him.
Kill him, and I’ll give you an extra million!”
“Very well,” Chai Cai said with a satisfied smile, nodding.
Without any more words, Chai Cai, chewing on a toothpick, pushed open the car door and headed towards the hospital entrance, his eyes fixed on Ye Tian.
From the latter’s actions, he could already determine that the man was no master, seeming more like a playboy.
Qingshan’s information was incorrect, but that made things easier, less trouble when killing.
Chai Cai crossed the road, closing in on Ye Tian.
Only now did he clearly see that there was a policewoman behind Ye Tian, and moreover, he recognized her.
The two of them were laughing and chatting – obviously acquainted with each other.
If he struck at Ye Tian now, he would inevitably involve the policewoman.
He frowned at the thought, but then considering the Wang Family’s power and influence, killing a policewoman wasn’t much of an issue.
“The little officer has woken up; she’s lucky!” Spitting out the toothpick, a flash of coldness in his eyes, Chai Cai charged straight toward Ye Tian.
