Having made up his mind, Ye Fan picked up the list and knocked on the door of the interrogation room.
Outside the door, an enforcement team member had already arrived and opened the room. Seeing Ye Fan smiling, he nodded respectfully. After Ye Fan walked out, the team member slowly walked in.
“Why let him go and not me?”
Seeing that the enforcement team member let Ye Fan leave without a word, while they wanted to interrogate him, it was clearly double standards.
The enforcer looked at Feng Xiao and coldly snorted, “He’s the captain of the enforcement team, what are you? Moreover, he’s the victim. You brought people to cause trouble at Xiao Ran Pavilion, and you still want to leave? Be honest and explain your situation, or you’ll regret it.”
The enforcer, regardless of whether Feng Xiao was the young master of the Feng family, spoke angrily with a cold face.
Upon hearing the enforcer’s words, Feng Xiao’s face immediately filled with anger, but he was helpless against the enforcer.
At this moment, his situation was inferior, so he could only endure all of this silently.
Seeing that Feng Xiao was no longer arrogant, the enforcer snorted with satisfaction, then sat down and began the interrogation.
Feng Xiao never dreamed that he would be treated like this one day.
However, for Ye Fan, who had already left, all of this was no longer important. Feng Xiao brought it all upon himself and had no one else to blame.
Seeing Ye Fan walk in with a joyful expression, Lü Liang immediately burst into laughter.
“Seeing you gloating like this, you must have gained something, right?”
Shrugging his shoulders, Ye Fan smiled and said, “I went to so much trouble. If I didn’t gain anything, wouldn’t it be a wasted trip?”
He placed the list in his hand in front of Lü Liang.
“This is what Feng Xiao confessed. Those loyal to Feng Ting in the Feng family. Brother Lü, help me investigate these people and see what kind of people they are usually like?”
Ye Fan naturally didn’t fully trust Feng Xiao’s words, so he still wanted to investigate to be at ease.
Lü Liang was stunned for a moment, took the list, and immediately gasped.
“What’s wrong?”
Ye Fan asked in confusion.
“Brother Ye, the people on this list involve more than half of the core members of the Feng family. If all these people are related to Feng Ting, then Feng Ting shouldn’t have just ended up like this, right?”
Lü Liang frowned, filled with confusion.
Ye Fan was slightly taken aback, not expecting that so many core members of the Feng family were involved in this list.
Just as Lü Liang said, if these people were truly friendly with Feng Ting, Feng Ting would have replaced Feng Xiao long ago. Why would he have to suffer such grievances in the Feng family?
This didn’t make sense, either rationally or emotionally.
But if these people were unrelated to Feng Ting, why would Feng Xiao target them?
This list was the Feng family personnel that Feng Xiao wanted to eliminate using Ye Fan’s hand.
If they were on good terms with him, he naturally wouldn’t have written them down.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Fan felt that it was best to investigate first. No matter what tricks Feng Xiao was playing, he had to rely on his own judgment.
“Brother Lü, let’s investigate first. I also want to see what tricks Feng Xiao is up to.”
Seeing Ye Fan’s insistence, Lü Liang nodded, “Alright, I’ll arrange for someone to investigate immediately.”
Using the identity of an enforcer to investigate would naturally be twice as effective, so Ye Fan didn’t need to worry about these matters.
After leaving the enforcement team, the sun was bright outside, but Ye Fan’s mood was very heavy.
Although he had successfully targeted Feng Xiao this time, Ye Fan knew very well that the real battle had just begun.
Ye Fan gave a bitter smile. He originally thought that with Elder Lei, the vice president of the Antique Association, he would be able to develop steadily in Jiangnan City without encountering any trouble, but it seemed he had thought too much.
Jiangnan City, with its hidden dragons and crouching tigers, was far from as simple as he imagined.
Even though he had successfully drawn the major families into the fray, it was still not easy to reap the benefits of being a fisherman.
Just as Ye Fan was contemplating his next move, a BMW car sped over and stopped in front of him.
The speed was too fast. If he hadn’t recognized it as a Wang family car, Ye Fan might have suspected that they were trying to murder him.
“Young Master Wang? Why are you here?”
Seeing Wang Feng get out of the car, Ye Fan asked with a frown.
The Wang family and he were on the same boat, prospering together and suffering together, their fates intertwined.
“Brother Ye, I received news this morning that that scoundrel Feng Xiao actually dared to lead people to attack Xiao Ran Pavilion. Fortunately, Brother Ye is unharmed, otherwise, I would personally finish off that scoundrel.”
Wang Feng gritted his teeth. Ye Fan was now the hope for the Wang family’s rise.
If anything happened to Ye Fan, the Wang family would fall into an abyss of eternal damnation.
They were already in a desperate situation with the Feng family. Although the Heavenly King’s Mansion had not blamed the Wang family recently, they had implicitly or explicitly expressed their dissatisfaction with the Wang family.
If they lost Ye Fan, the Wang family would be trapped in a situation where they faced enemies on all sides, and their status in Jiangnan City would plummet. At that time, not only would the Heavenly King’s Mansion not help them, but they would also help the Feng family to fan the flames.
Therefore, the Wang family would spare no effort to ensure Ye Fan’s safety.
Seeing the worry on Wang Feng’s face, Ye Fan stepped forward with a smile.
“A mere Feng Xiao can’t do anything to me. Thank you for your concern, Young Master Wang.”
Although there was a relationship of interest between them, the Wang family genuinely cared about him, which made Ye Fan feel very comfortable.
Wang Feng quickly waved his hand, “Brother Ye is a distinguished guest of my Wang family. If something happens, the Wang family will naturally not stand by and do nothing. However, Wang Feng is here not only to check if Brother Ye is safe but also for another matter.”
Saying that, he took out an invitation from his chest.
The invitation was adorned with golden characters, as if it were gilded with gold powder.
Seeing the invitation, Ye Fan was slightly stunned. The Wang family had really made a grand gesture, even using gold powder for their invitations. It seemed that the event they were holding must be extremely important.
Taking the invitation, Ye Fan did not open it. “Young Master Wang, I haven’t heard of any recent events that the Wang family is holding. This invitation…”
Wang Feng smiled, quickly looked around, and lowered his voice to explain.
“Someone from Hangcheng is coming tonight, and they have a very good relationship with my Wang family, so the Wang family is specially holding a banquet.”
Then, he leaned closer to Ye Fan’s ear, “Brother Ye, the people who are coming this time are from the Gu family. I believe Brother Ye knows about the Gu family’s situation. Therefore, the Gu family’s visit this time is to select treasure hunters. In the entire Jiangnan City, only Brother Ye is the most popular choice. Therefore, Brother Ye must show his skills tonight.”
Wang Feng took two steps back, his smile deepening.
Ye Fan suddenly understood. No wonder the Wang family was holding a banquet; it was clearly providing an opportunity for him.
