"Since the older brother says this Shen Qiang isn't simple, just get rid of him!" The boss of Dinghao's eyes were fierce.

Pei Zhengyi's father immediately panicked, "What about my son? I need to bail him out! I don't care what you think, if my son goes in, I'll kill your entire family!"

"Stop arguing!" the older brother sitting on the sofa said in a deep voice, "The needs of you two don't conflict much."

Hearing this, the two became silent.

The older brother continued, "Here's the plan, Xiao Zhang wants to kill that Shen Qiang, Xiao Pei wants to save his son. The key issue lies with Shen Bian and Shen Qiang. Since they are feigning to provoke you, you should set a trap. Host a dinner."

Dinghao's boss was stunned, "Old brother, what do you mean?"

The older brother smiled and said, "Tonight, invite the two of them out, set an ambush, not too many people, just a few, arm yourselves, and directly capture them. You just need those videos. If they hand them over, you either kill them or let them roll."

"What if he doesn't hand them over?" Pei Zhengyi's father asked anxiously.

The older brother smiled, "Then you just concede. Xiao Zhang can simply give Dinghao to him. That Shen surnamed can be ruthless and cunning, but he has to keep some credibility as a part of Jianghu. If he takes over Dinghao and still doesn't let Xiao Pei go, then he's asking for death."

"Bro, what are you saying? Give Dinghao to him? Even if it kills me, I'll never give Dinghao to Shen Qiang." Dinghao's boss panicked.

The older brother frowned and said, "Don't be so jumpy. Who doesn't know about your rift with the Datong River? If you hadn't smashed their place first, would they have come after you? Besides, you know in your heart how much that rotten hotel makes in a year."

"After taking out the shares for others, it still makes several million a year." Dinghao's boss frowned.

The older brother laughed, "What percentage of all your business does it make up? Does it even reach ten percent?"

"It's not about how much money I make, I just can't swallow this insult." Dinghao's boss said.

The older brother took a deep breath, slightly furrowed his brow, and said, "You're also nearing fifty, can't you see the bigger picture? First off, don't be fooled by Shen Qiang's youth, he is definitely a tough one. If you don't want to give Dinghao to him, the conflict between you will just deepen, and you'll have to invest all your energy into it. It's just a few million annually, so what if you give it to him?"

Dinghao's boss became agitated, "Bro, if Shen Qiang were willing to buy at market price, I'd be more than happy to get rid of it, and save myself the trouble. But now, Shen Qiang has already said that for my Dinghao, he will only pay one dollar, which is worth several hundred million..."

The older brother frowned, "So, I support you in killing him, act quickly, the faster, the better. Because Shen Qiang wants Dinghao, and you refuse to give it, now the restaurant is still theirs. Continuing like this, your energy will be greatly drained by him. And with Shen Qiang being young, he could battle you for twenty years, and he'd only be in his forties. Twenty years later, you'll be nearly seventy, what will you have to fight him with?"

"So just be decisive, set a trap tonight, try if you can kill him. If you can, that's great. If not, don't act like someone drowning with gold, better drop the gold and swim ashore than drown with it."

"As for the loss of Dinghao, if you really can't let it go, let Xiao Pei compensate you a bit, I'll add a little more, and loss in other areas, you work on your truly profitable businesses well, and you'll be back on your feet in three or two years."

"You're not young anymore, don't fixate on that money. If Shen Qiang keeps dragging you into daily schemes and strife, you'll be frustrated and upset at the hotel, and if you aren't meticulous in other businesses, you don't need Shen Qiang to beat you, others will kick you out of the market."

Hearing this, Dinghao's boss kept trembling his leg, which lasted about half a minute, and then he said, "Fine, if Shen Qiang and Shen Bian can't be dealt with tonight, I'll admit defeat first thing tomorrow morning."

"That's right, those who aim for great things must act decisively, it's not worth exhausting yourself over a small business."

...

By late afternoon around four o'clock, Shen Qiang received a call from Zhi Bianyi.

"Dinghao's Mr. Zhang said he wants to have a private talk with us tonight, to discuss Dinghao. He said to bail out Pei Zhengyi, he's willing to pay any price."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed as he waved to indicate to Xiu Ju to stop fooling around and said, "In business, the biggest taboo is showing your hand to others. Manager Zhang is an old fox; he knows this well. Although I admit that your scheme of sowing discord might be somewhat effective, Manager Zhang isn't going to simply hand over Dinghao on account of that. If he were that easy to handle, you wouldn't need to bother with him, so this must definitely be a setup."

Bianyi laughed, "I knew you would see through it. So, what do we do now? Should we go or not?"

Shen Qiang laughed, "Are you joking? Schemes and plots are the magical treasure in winning when strength is equal, but when the strength is unequal, they're just a joke. So, we agree to meet him tonight."

Bianyi said, "You're really not worried about him setting you up?"

Shen Qiang laughed, "If it were you setting me up, I would be extra cautious, but if it's just them, I have nothing to worry about."

Ending the call.

While playing cards, Shen Qiang, whose face was covered in sticky notes, looked at Lan Yong with an air of surprise and said, "Brother Qiang, what's up? That Pei guy still isn't convinced, is he? Damn, with just those guys, a hundred of them wouldn't be enough for me to beat."

"Lan Yong," Lan Yong's girlfriend said with a frown, annoyed, "You promised, no fighting or killing."

Lan Yong was embarrassed.

Just then, Shen Qiang laughed, "No need for fighting or killing, it's just some business negotiation. Shen Bian and I will go tonight; you guys do what you need to do."

"Brother Qiang, let Lan Yong and I come with you," Wu Zhaoyang said.

Shen Qiang laughed, "You two, your task tonight is to spend quality time with your girlfriends. Don't worry, if anything serious comes up, I'll give you a call."

Upon hearing this, Lan Yong burst into laughter and returned to his card game, while Wu Zhaoyang, seemingly contemplative, quietly nudged his girlfriend, who, after a moment of surprise, then said, "Brother Qiang, I've been with Zhaoyang for a long time. Let him go with you, just in case you need someone to run errands for you."

Xiu Ju chuckled and, leaning close to Shen Qiang, teasingly said, "That won't do, if he comes along, I won't have a chance to get cozy with Brother Qiang."

Upon hearing this.

Everyone burst into laughter.

At nine in the evening, Bianyi drove to pick up Shen Qiang and Xiu Ju.

The three of them drove out of the city and reached an overpass in the suburbs.

From a distance, they could see a high-end black sedan and a black van parked under the bridge, with Bianyi parking the car to the side.

Shen Qiang and Bianyi got out of the car, walking towards the sedan.

As they reached the car door.

The car window rolled down, revealing not the face of Dinghao's Manager Zhang, but three dark muzzles of guns.

Almost simultaneously.

The door of the van opened, and three men, also holding guns, jumped out.

Amid the sound of guns being cocked, a man's voice coldly said, "I know you guys are tough, but no one is faster than a bullet, so raise your hands up nice and easy, otherwise I'll blow your head off."
