Chapter 1342: Default is Acceptance

you think we should ally with"The white wolf didn't notice the thoughts swirling in Bai Xueshan's mind at that moment, and continued talking with gusto: "An enemy of my enemy is my friend! The Xia fa...By default is to admit, looking at Jiang Xue's lost and dejected appearance, Ye Fan took him into his arms in one fell swoop. His powerful arms tightly embraced Jiang Xue, saying word by word: "Don't be afraid, no one can force you to do what you don't want to do."

Jiang Xue stared at Ye Fan in astonishment. The only man who had stirred ripples in the tide of her life now wore an expression of such intense focus, his voice so firm when he spoke these words. And all this, he did for her.

Jiang Xue suddenly felt a wave of emotion, so touched that she almost cried. Her nose tingled, and she leaned against Ye Fan's shoulder, her body trembling uncontrollably. Tears flowed silently down her cheeks.

Ye Fan gently stroked Jiang Xue's beautiful hair, allowing her to cry on his shoulder. Ye Fan didn't try to comfort her intentionally; he knew Jiang Xue must have suffered too much grievance. Don't look at her seemingly carefree and boisterous exterior, like a clumsy fool.

But such women, often have hearts richer and more fragile than anyone else. It's just that they won't cry in front of people, always finding a quiet corner to silently shed tears.

And now, after Ye Fan said those words, she could no longer control her emotions. The pain that had accumulated over many days was suddenly released, and tears flowed like an unstoppable dam, instantly wetting Ye Fan's clothes.

Ye Fan felt the hot, scalding tears. He couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy, but he couldn't let Jiang Xue cry any longer, so he changed the subject and said, "This marriage between the Jiang family and the Guo family was your grandfather's idea, wasn't it"

If I'm not mistaken, since Jiang Xue's father passed away, the old master now runs the Jiang household.

"No, Grandpa actually opposes it," Jiang Xue shook her head. "But the family meeting decided so, all the other grandfathers and uncles agreed unanimously. For the prosperity of the Jiang family, Grandpa couldn't do anything about it."

Ye Fan suddenly understood, this was probably another trap set by those who squeezed out Jiang's family against Jiang Xue, and the purpose was naturally to drive Jiang Xue away.

She was just too young and naive, unable to see the situation clearly. Or perhaps, Jiang Xue was simply blinded by her own position.

For the sake of his family's prosperity, Ye Fan let out a cold snort. Such lofty and grand excuses were nothing but that—excuses that had left Jiang Xue, the little miss, helpless and forced to run away from home.

"Snow, rest assured. With me here, you will definitely not marry that Guo Xusheng. And the Jiang family will never fall."

Ye Fan was incredibly determined and steadfast.

Jiang Xue nodded heavily, though she didn't know what Ye Fan could do to make her this way. But at this moment, in Ye Fan's embrace, feeling the strength of his arms, everything felt so real, making Jiang Xue linger. She was deeply immersed in it, unable to extricate herself.

For Ye Fan's words, she chose to believe unconditionally.

Ye Fan remained silent. The plane had already entered the airspace of Guangdong province. It wouldn't be long before it reached the airport. Then, it would be time for him to make his move.

Ye Fan didn't tell Jiang Xue that if Guo Zisheng died, he wouldn't be entangled with her anymore. And if the Guo family were to perish from then on, after the Jiang family devoured the Guo family's power, would the Jiang family still need to form alliances with other families

Of course, these are things that can't be told to Jiang Xue, after all, she is such a pure girl.

Inside a luxurious villa of the Guo family, a stern-faced middle-aged man sat majestically at the head of the hall, while a scarred man sat beside him on his left.

The man was probably in his forties, with a bright red scar running from his left eyebrow to the corner of his right mouth. His appearance was terrifying and chilling, and the others around him also had menacing looks on their faces.

The man with the scar, whose name was Dao Ye, was the boss of the Dàdāo Gang in Guangdong Province.

To the right of the imposing man stood a middle-aged scholar in a Confucian robe. The man appeared rather thin and wore a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles. However, through those thick lenses, one could clearly see the flashes of cold ruthlessness in his eyes.

How many people were deceived by his gentle and refined appearance In fact, he was a ruthless character deep down. When it came to killing, he would never bat an eyelid, and his methods were even crueler than that of the knife-wielding boss from across town.

This man was called Nan Gong Xiao, with the nickname "Smiling Tiger," because when he assassinated people, he usually laughed. The more wildly he laughed, the more it proved his determination to kill was stronger.

"Nan Gong Xiao, the fierce tiger of the Northeast Table Gang, you came to Hong Kong this time to find me. What's the matter" The imposing middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

This imposing man is Guo Tianxing, the current head of the Guo family. The Dajiang Gang is the property of the Guo family, and the Knife Lord is actually a subordinate of Guo Tianxing, who has been following him for over twenty years.

Today, this person known as the Smiling Tiger found Dao Ye and said he had a big deal to discuss, seeking cooperation. He wanted to meet Dao Ye in person, so Dao Ye brought the Smiling Tiger to the most secluded part of Guo's house.

Guo Tianxing, while sipping his tea, carefully observed Nan Gongxiao. He noticed that the man had a restrained aura and sharp eyes, clearly a formidable individual. Someone like him dared to enter Guo You alone, indicating he was fearless and likely had some hidden ace up his sleeve.

Therefore, Guo Tianxing immediately dismissed the idea of ordering his men to arrest this person.

Nangong Xiao smiled faintly, calmly saying: “Let’s not beat around the bush. The Qing Gang wants to meddle in Hong Kong's underground world, so I came to pay my respects to Mr. Guo beforehand.”

What does it mean

Just now, Nangong Xiao smiled at himself. He didn't know if this counted as Nangong Xiao turning murderous towards himself.

Gu Tianxing's eyes gleamed. Could it be that Nan Gongxiao was challenging him A strong dragon wouldn't bully a local snake, and this local snake wouldn't necessarily lose to the Qing Gang. If Nan Gongxiao truly didn't know better, then he would absolutely not back down.

Nan Gong laughed and said, "Master Guo, don't misunderstand me. I came here with sincerity. Let me be direct: the Qing Gang and the Big Knife Gang are cooperating to eliminate all other forces in Guangdong Province. Then we'll split the territory evenly. How about it"

Guo Tianxing frowned and said coldly, "Why should I believe you" The fact that he could know the mastermind behind the Dajiang Gang was himself showed that Nangong Xiao's strength was extraordinary.

Of course, we'll show Master Guo the sincerity and strength of our Qing Gang. The head of Ma Ge, the leader of the Three Dragons Gang in Kowloon, will serve as a gift from the Qing Gang to the Guo family. What do you think" Nangong smiled with a radiant smile.

"You have already beheaded Ma Zhentian," Guo Tianxing said calmly.

The Tri-pronged Gang was a thorn in their own side. It wasn't that the Tri-pronged Gang was particularly formidable, but rather because it was actually a Lin family enterprise.

Although the Lin family appears to be operating on the surface level, they have recently established their own underground power network in order to prevent the Guo family's influence from growing too large. The San Cha Gang is one of the Lin family's businesses in Kowloon.

Although the number of people wasn't large and the scale wasn't huge, Guo Family could handle it in a matter of minutes. However, this would mean that Guo Family would completely sever ties with Lin Family on the surface.

The Guo family hasn't reached the point of severing ties with the Lin family directly yet, so they have been putting it off until now.

Now hearing Nan Gong smile say this, Guo Tian Sheng couldn't help but feel a jump in his heart, what is the Qiu Qing Gang trying to do

Could he possibly want to go against the Lin family Or did he have his eyes on some kind of resource they possessed But how could the Green Gang be so confident in being able to defeat the Lin family in an open confrontationwas probably not feasible. He had a lot of things to do now, and he wouldn't be in Beijing for a while.Ye Fan said, "I'm currentlystationed here and can't return to base for now. I'll come back after...
