"Bai Yifan?" Qin Dalei frowned and said, "Isn't he just Vice Secretary Bai's son?"

"Yes!" The man in the suit nodded, saying, "It's precisely because of his important identity that we can exploit it to our advantage."

"Uh-huh." Qin Dalei took a drag on his cigarette and said, "We still need to see what comes of Xiao Jun's effort though."

"Yes!" Upon hearing this, the man in the suit immediately nodded.

However, the news from Xiao Hei was a disappointment to Qin Dalei.

"Big brother, Xiao Jun is dead." Xiao Hei's voice came through the receiver.

"Alright, I know!" It was expected, yet unexpected. Qin Dalei's voice sounded incredibly calm.

The conversation was brief and to the point.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dalei fell silent for a moment. Then, turning to the man in the suit beside him, he said, "It seems, it's time to consider your proposal."

"Mr. Qin, I can help you get in touch with Bai Yifan!" the man in the suit said eagerly.

"Mhmm." Qin Dalei nodded and said, "Then I'll leave this matter in your hands."

"Yes, Mr. Qin!" The man in the suit immediately nodded again.

Another attack plan had failed, and Qin Dalei was annoyed, even angry. He had not expected Lin Chuan, that guy, to escape from right under his gun time and again, which infuriated Qin Dalei.

...

Despite having been attacked, Lin Chuan didn't take it to heart at all. If it were anyone else, they probably would have found a place to hide by now. Who else but Lin Chuan would continue to stay at Changlin Factory, and even boldly wander out every day?

However, the following days seemed uneventful.

Lin Chuan moved back and forth normally between the City Committee, the transportation market, and the Changlin Factory.

Meanwhile, Qin Dalei's men went to the Extraordinary Bar.

Outside the Extraordinary Bar, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly came to a stop. Then, a man in a black suit wearing gold-rimmed glasses got out of the car. A black-clad bodyguard hurriedly opened the door for the man, who stepped out and walked towards the bar.

The waiter at the door immediately realized this man had an extraordinary background.

"Good evening, sir!" the waiter hurried forward to greet him.

"I am looking for your boss, Bai Yifan!" the man in the suit demanded.

"Ah?" The waiter was taken aback.

"Bai Yifan!" the man in the suit repeated.

"Yes, yes!" The waiter nodded hastily and said, "Mr. Bai is inside right now. However, may I ask what business you have with Mr. Bai?"

The man in the suit simply pushed past the waiter and, accompanied by two bodyguards, strode directly inside. The waiter wanted to stop them but was powerless; the mere presence of the two bodyguards was enough to make his legs go weak. He could only watch helplessly as the group swaggered inside.

Bai Yifan was drinking sullenly alone inside.

These few days, Bai Yifan had repeatedly visited the City Committee looking for Tang Yumeng, hoping to win her back and wishing she would change her mind, wishing she would return to his side. Unfortunately, every conversation ended without bearing any fruit, and sometimes they even quarreled and parted on bad terms. Because of this, Tang Yumeng saw him less and less frequently. She used to meet him occasionally, but in the past month, Tang Yumeng hadn't sought him out once, leaving Bai Yifan deeply heartbroken.

"Mr. Bai, drinking alone?" The man in the black suit walked in leisurely.

"Who are you?" Bai Yifan looked up at him.

"Heh, it doesn't matter who I am." The man in the black suit sat down in front of Bai Yifan and then smiled, "What you need to understand is that right now, only my boss and I can help you!"

"Who the hell are you, and who's your boss?" Bai Yifan looked at him, bewildered.

"My boss is Qin Dalei!" the man in the suit said, proud.

"Qin Dalei?!" Bai Yifan perked up upon hearing this, quickly sitting upright and saying, "Qin Dalei is back in Jiangbei City?"

"It's been a week's news," said the man in the suit with a smile. "It seems Mr. Bai doesn't pay much attention to these matters, huh?"

"Indeed." Bai Yifan nodded eagerly, "I had no idea Mr. Qin had returned to Jiangbei City. It seems I must pay him a visit soon."

"Haha, forget it about visiting," the man in the suit laughed heartily. "Mr. Qin heard that Mr. Bai is having some troubles, so he specifically sent me to visit you. I hope I haven't disturbed Mr. Bai's rest."

"Not at all!" Bai Yifan shook his head hurriedly. "I'm idle to the core; it's my great honor to receive attention from Mr. Qin."

The man in the suit took a seat opposite Bai Yifan and then smiled, "I hear Mr. Bai dearly adores Secretary Tang. Is it true?"

"This..." Bai Yifan was slightly embarrassed, and he said with a bitter smile, "The lover has affection, but the beloved is heartless."

"Haha..." Once the man in the suit heard this, he burst into laughter, "Mr. Bai, you really shouldn't look down on yourself like that. Whether it's your education, background, or wealth, you've left countless people in the dust. I just don't understand, why does Secretary Tang specifically dislike you?"

"How would I know?" Bai Yifan said helplessly, "She, on the other hand, likes a bumpkin!"

"Haha, Secretary Tang really has no taste, huh?" The man in the suit laughed.

"By the way, after all this time chatting, I still don't know your esteemed name!" Bai Yifan quickly asked.

"My surname is Liu, just call me Old Liu," the man replied.

"Alright," Bai Yifan nodded, "You said Mr. Qin wants to help me, what does he plan to do?"

"By getting rid of Lin Chuan, this foe of yours, then there won't be any other man in this world more suitable for Secretary Tang than you." Old Liu's mouth curled into a strange smile. Bai Yifan, hearing this, was immediately overjoyed, "You guys can really get rid of Lin Chuan?"

"Of course!" Old Liu nodded, "There are always more solutions than problems."

"Oh? What method do you plan to use to get rid of Lin Chuan?" Bai Yifan asked with hidden glee, "Assassination? Hiring an assassin? Or simply sending someone to his door to eliminate him?"

"Hehe, it's none of those," Old Liu shook his head, "Our method is actually very simple, just letting you personally get rid of Lin Chuan!"

"Hiss..."

Bai Yifan was immediately shocked, "Don't scare me, you have no idea how formidable Lin Chuan is. I'm no match for him."

"A bright spear is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to defend against." Old Liu looked seriously at Bai Yifan, then took out a transparent plastic bag from his pocket and said, "This is a poison that can cause someone's internal organs to fail in one minute, leading to death. Just secretly add it to Lin Chuan's drink, and he'll be dead on the spot. I believe you'll find a way!"

Looking at the poison Old Liu placed on the table, Bai Yifan suddenly went dumbfounded.

"This..." Bai Yifan was stunned for a moment.

"This stuff is colorless and tasteless," Old Liu's mouth curled into a strange smile, "No one will notice, and even if they do, it will be too late by then. Leave the rest to us, the Qin Gang. Absolutely no one will dare to trouble you!"

Bai Yifan hesitated for a long time before finally nodding in agreement.

At this moment, the only thought in Bai Yifan's mind was to get rid of Lin Chuan, then he could have Tang Yumeng. He had always believed that Lin Chuan was the only obstacle between himself and Tang Yumeng. Once Lin Chuan was removed, Tang Yumeng would be within his reach, and no one could ever separate them.

"Very good," Old Liu nodded, "As long as you get rid of Lin Chuan, then Tang Yumeng will be yours."

"Okay," Bai Yifan nodded, clenching the transparent bag of poison in his hand.

"It's all up to you now," Old Liu patted Bai Yifan on the shoulder and said, "Whether you can get rid of Lin Chuan, it's entirely up to you."

After saying that, Old Liu left the Extraordinary Bar with his people, leaving Bai Yifan alone in the private room.

He stared at the colorless and tasteless poison in his hand, a hint of confusion appeared in his eyes. When it was actually time to kill, he hesitated. After all, he had never done such a thing before. However, remembering the way Lin Chuan had once smugly embraced Tang Yumeng in front of him, even kissing her without any scruples, a nameless rage surged within Bai Yifan. He decided to go through with killing Lin Chuan, wishing he could slay him immediately.

Bang!

Bai Yifan slammed his hand down on the table.

"Lin Chuan, I must kill you!" Bai Yifan gritted his teeth and said.

......

The next morning.

Lin Chuan went to Tang Yumeng's office early in the morning.

Tang Yumeng had just arrived not long ago and was organizing her desk. Lin Chuan tiptoed in, suddenly embraced Tang Yumeng from behind, and gave her a fierce, passionate kiss. Tang Yumeng's whole body went limp from Lin Chuan's kiss. Nonetheless, she reciprocated Lin Chuan's kiss with equal passion as they kissed intensely.

At that time, Bai Yifan walked in from outside.

"You two!" Bai Yifan was immediately filled with rage.

This abrupt voice made Lin Chuan and Tang Yumeng stop their intense kissing immediately.

Both turned their heads and saw Bai Yifan standing at the door with an angry expression. Tang Yumeng looked at Bai Yifan with astonishment, while Lin Chuan appeared indifferent, as if he found nothing particularly remarkable about the situation.

"You!" Bai Yifan bit his teeth.

"Bai Yifan, how could you just barge into my office without knocking!" Tang Yumeng angrily asked.

"If I had knocked, how would I have caught you two, a lecherous couple, having an affair here?" Bai Yifan's tone was very unfriendly. This remark completely enraged Tang Yumeng, her face turned a mixture of pale and flushed.

"Bai Yifan, what do you mean?" Tang Yumeng asked harshly, "Lin Chuan and I have an upright boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, how did it become an affair in your mouth? I think you're the one who really can't say anything good."
