It seems that with this sentence added, the persuasiveness is enhanced. Of course, with this sentence, listeners are more convinced of the truth of the matter.

Fang Yuan stood by the bar, leaning in to listen to the other party's narrative, her lips always revealing an unintentional smile.

After listening, Fang Yuan turned and walked to a quieter spot. Then she took out a compact mobile phone from between her breasts. The mobile phone was merely a tool for communication for Fang Yuan; if she wanted to go online, she would use a tablet.

After the call was made, a man's voice came from the other end: "Miss Fang, calling me so late, what do you need?"

"Mr. Bai, our plan can be implemented soon," Fang Yuan said with a smile.

"Is that so?" Bai Yifan was startled, fell silent for a moment, then said: "Okay, just be careful not to expose yourself, otherwise, it would be a big trouble."

"Don't worry." Fang Yuan nodded.

After hanging up, Fang Yuan stuffed the mobile phone back between her breasts.

Fang Yuan's beauty in the bar was like a blooming blue enchantress. Dressed in a long blue gown, the hem of her dress swept the floor, with sparkling diamonds on her chest shining even brighter under the lights, absolutely dazzling.

However, the gown only reached up to her chest, exposing almost everything above it, those enticing shoulders, and her breasts that could not be fully covered, almost becoming the target of curious peeping by men inside the bar. But, Fang Yuan did not mind. A beautiful woman is meant to attract the attention of men, right? The reason why she could attract so many men's eyes was entirely because of her charm. Since it proved that she had charm, why should she be angry instead of being happy?

Fang Yuan held a glass of red wine in her left hand and slowly walked towards the bar.

The men who were still chatting vigorously seemed to be discussing who exactly Lin Chuan was.

Overnight, Lin Chuan became famous, Haiqing Pool became famous.

It was also because of the fight this night that Lin Chuan's position in the east district of the city was firmly established, and Haiqing Pool was recognized in the east district. Since Lin Chuan stormed into Qinghua Pool, the Northeast Tiger showed no reaction, but seemed very calm. Everyone thought the Northeast Tiger would be building up his power, but unexpectedly, the next day, the Northeast Tiger stated that he allowed Haiqing Pool to exist in the east district.

The words of the Northeast Tiger caused a sensation throughout Jiangbei City. Because it was indirectly admitting Lin Chuan and Zhou Kai's team's position in the east district. It also indirectly acknowledged that Lin Chuan is the third significant figure in the east district.

Once the bold statement from the Northeast Tiger came out, it immediately worried Feng Taibao.

Eight Horses Tea House.

In Feng Taibao's private tea room, a number of people gathered, surrounded by smoke. Behind Feng Taibao, Feidao stood with a huge knife on his back, like a War God. After losing in the earlier sparring with Lin Chuan, Feidao went back to his master to rigorously train his knife skills for several months. Feeling significantly improved, he returned to Jiangbei City, back to Feng Taibao's side to continue to support him earnestly.

The tea room was crowded.

"You must have heard the recent rumors," Feng Taibao glanced at the people, then said: "What do you think we should do?"

"Mr. Hu, do you think the Northeast Tiger has teamed up with Lin Chuan?" Long Wu hurriedly said: "Otherwise, how could Lin Chuan be recognized by the Northeast Tiger with his power? It's unlikely, so there's only this possibility."

"I also suspect that," a man in black clothes said.

Feng Taibao laughed and said: "It should be unlikely, knowing the Northeast Tiger as I do, he wouldn't proactively team up with Lin Chuan."

"Then…" Long Wu awkwardly asked: "What's going on?"

"The most likely possibility is that the Northeast Tiger was frightened by Lin Chuan," Feng Taibao coldly laughed: "He could only seek a compromise without damaging his own image. Therefore, he could only acknowledge the existence of Haiqing Pool. This way, not only can it make him seem magnanimous, but it also makes people feel like Lin Chuan might have teamed up with him."

"No way?" Long Wu was startled, and said: "The Northeast Tiger has so much power, and he also has so many experts under him, Lin Chuan alone couldn't handle him."

"Initially, I thought the same," Feng Taibao laughed and said: "But now, it's different."

"Mr. Hu, what ... exactly is going on?" Long Wu asked confusedly.

"After Feidao came back, I finally understood," Feng Taibao looked at Feidao, who seemed somewhat astounded, and continued: "I acknowledge Lin Chuan is a formidable character, this is undoubted. It's said Lin Chuan can fight a hundred alone, so perhaps he posed some sort of threat to the Northeast Tiger in Qinghua Pool. Which is why the Northeast Tiger might be wary of him."

"I see," Long Wu suddenly realized.

A muscular man in the room asked: "Since Lin Chuan caught the Northeast Tiger, why didn't he kill him?"

"Hmph, who would dare to make a move?" Feng Taibao scoffed: "Who is the Northeast Tiger? He's a representative of the Jiangbei City CPPCC, one of the top ten outstanding entrepreneurs awarded by Jiangbei City government, an outstanding philanthropist. Touching him would be inviting trouble."

"Hmm," Long Wu nodded, said: "The Northeast Tiger has wide influence, and also has many statuses and auras. Killing him would be tantamount to seeking death."

"Big Brother, what should we do?" the burly man anxiously asked. "Why not we crush Lin Chuan? How can there be a third person claiming territory in the eastern part of the city? This is simply an insult to you!"

"No!" Feng Taibao sneered, "We really can't act rashly on this."

"Boss Feng, Lin Chuan is too much, it's only normal to suppress him a bit," Long Wu hurriedly said. "At least we need to take back our transportation market, right?"

Long Wu was very upset. Since the transportation market slice was snatched away, he could only shrink back to the vegetable market, quarreling daily with those vegetable vendors, which was truly infuriating. He had never been interested in the vegetable market before, but since the transportation market was lost, he had no choice but to pick up this tasteless bone to gnaw on. He had never given up on the transportation market.

Feng Taibao smiled and said, "No."

"Then..." Everyone stretched their necks, all waiting for Feng Taibao's next words.

"We should act like the Northeast Tiger, publicly acknowledging Lin Chuan's status in the eastern district, as well as recognizing the existence of Haiqing Pool," Feng Taibao said with a cold smile. "Additionally, I've decided to openly visit Lin Chuan at Haiqing Pool."

"Ah?!" Everyone was dumbfounded.

If they could accept the first and second proposals, the third one was absolutely unacceptable to them. After all, as Thirteen Grand Protectors, they had been famous in Jiangbei City for a long time. Even if Lin Chuan was the third wheel in the eastern district, he was just an upstart. How could they let a senior visit an up-and-comer?

"Boss Feng, that's not okay, it would be demeaning for you," Long Wu urgently advised. "If you want to meet Lin Chuan, just send someone to inform him."

"Big Brother, this really shouldn't be done!" the burly man urgently said.

The group in the tea house tried to dissuade him.

At that moment, Feng Taibao spoke up, "You're thinking too much."

"Big Brother, what do you mean?" the group curiously asked.

"Isn't Northeast Tiger wanting to recognize Lin Chuan's status?" Feng Taibao's lips curled slightly as he said, "He just wants to embarrass me, hoping I'd eliminate Lin Chuan on my own. Hmph, I won't fall for that. I'll give Lin Chuan a favor by returning this hot potato to Northeast Tiger, let him worry about it."

Long Wu's eyes spun around, and he suddenly understood, saying, "I get it now, this move is called a counter-intelligence plan."

"Wrong," Feng Taibao laughed, "This is called going with the flow. Understand?"

"Yes, yes!" Long Wu nodded.

......

After a fierce battle at Tsinghua Pool, quite a few of the brothers were sent to the hospital. For a while, the People's Hospital was overwhelmed, with several needing urgent surgeries, either for broken arms or legs, all requiring steel plate implants and casts. The operating room at People's Hospital was packed, overflowing to the Second People's Hospital of Jiangbei City...

After cleaning, the deep red bloodstains were still visible in the hall of Tsinghua Pool.

Northeast Tiger, dressed in a white coat, sat in the office on the fifth floor.

The room was filled with smoke as Northeast Tiger sat on the sofa, surrounded by a circle of underlings, over ten of them. Half of them were injured, but fortunately, there were no serious issues.

Northeast Tiger glanced at them and said, "You all have worked hard in this battle."

The ten-plus people all bowed their heads.

"Mr. Hu, we... we weren't effective in killing the enemy," the leading burly man awkwardly said. "It's our incompetence."

"No, you were already very impressive," Northeast Tiger said with a bitter smile, "It's just that Lin Chuan is too tough to deal with. It seems that a direct assault is ineffective."

"Mr. Hu, even if we can't beat Lin Chuan, there's no need to acknowledge his status in the eastern district," the burly man beside him said through gritted teeth. "Isn't this just causing trouble for ourselves? It'll be hard to deal with Lin Chuan later. After all, you acknowledged him."

"Hehe," Northeast Tiger laughed, "You think it's that simple?"

"Then... what does Mr. Hu mean?" the burly man asked.

"Don't worry, even if I don't make a move, someone else will," Northeast Tiger said with a grin.

The burly man furrowed his brows, saying, "Who?"

"Thirteen Grand Protectors. Boss Feng!" Northeast Tiger chuckled. "I think, right now, the person most afraid of seeing this situation is probably Feng Taibao. He's probably gathering his forces for a meeting right now, perhaps discussing how to take down Lin Chuan first."
