The man with the hooked nose also said, "Xiao Chao, we understand your feelings, but please try to understand us too, okay? Ever since Wu Jindao decided to break ties with the Feng Family, haven't we been living in constant fear every day? Afraid that they might destroy our base or something might happen to our families! If we don't leave ourselves a way out, what about our family's safety?"

"Exactly, things have escalated to this point, who wouldn't be scared? Just a few days ago, my daughter suddenly went missing, it almost gave me a heart attack! Luckily nothing happened in the end, but if something had gone wrong and she fell into the hands of those beasts, would my beautiful daughter still have had a future? Wouldn't she be ruined?"

The man with a fat head and big ears said worriedly, with a face full of concern.

Jiang Jinchao furrowed his brows, glanced around at the three people in front, and spoke in a deep voice, "Everyone, I understand these worries you have, but don't always think in a pessimistic direction! Think about it, has Boss Wu ever done anything to wrong the brothers over the years? Since he decided to break ties with the Feng Family, he must have something to rely on, he's not the type to just smash eggs against stones, so please have some confidence and give Boss Wu some time to solve the problem..."

However, before he could finish, they heard the doorbell of the room ring; someone had come.

Jiang Jinchao stopped talking, furrowed his brows slightly, and gave a wink to the crew-cut man next to him, who immediately got up to open the door.

Opening the door, he saw a subordinate in a vest standing outside, revealing a hint of displeasure on his face, and said, "What's going on, didn't I tell you not to bother us unless it's something important?"

The young man in the vest immediately said, "Brother Hui, Boss Wu is here, he's already at the door!"

What? Wu Jindao is here?

Upon hearing this, the crew-cut man's expression changed suddenly, and before he could react further, there came a rush of footsteps from the corridor.

Thud, thud, thud.

The sound quickly approached, and they saw Wu Jindao and his group, led by Right Protector Fan Yi, striding aggressively in this direction!

The crew-cut man didn't have time to think much. He quickly put on a smile and warmly greeted them, speaking loudly, "Brother Wu, what brings you here?"

"Where's Jiang Jinchao? I have something to discuss with him!"

Wu Jindao gave him a casual glance, then looked away and headed straight for the room.

"Brother Chao is inside, please come in, Brother Wu."

Upon hearing this, the crew-cut man's heart tightened as he pointed to the room ahead. Yet his gaze glimpsed at the people behind Wu Jindao, with a growing sense of foreboding—it felt like something big might happen tonight!

Meanwhile, inside the room, Jiang Jinchao and others, having heard the crew-cut man's call, knew that Wu Jindao had arrived, and they quickly got up to greet him.

As soon as he saw Wu Jindao, he immediately lowered his head, his cheeks showing a touch of apology, and said, "Brother Wu, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were here, so I didn't come down to greet you. Please don't blame me."

Wu Jindao stared at him fixedly and then raised his hand without warning, delivering a fierce slap.

Smack!

The crisp sound echoed in the room, and a bright red handprint appeared on Jiang Jinchao's face.

Bang, Wu Jindao raised his foot again, kicked Jiang Jinchao in the stomach, sending him flying three meters to the floor.

Thud, thud, thud!

As Wu Jindao made his move, the group following him burst into the room from the outside, surrounding the entire living room. Two brawny men immediately came to Jiang Jinchao's side, grabbed him off the ground, pinned his arms on each side, and then pressed him down to kneel, rendering him completely immobile.

This sudden turn of events and swift actions shocked the other three present, all of their expressions changing dramatically.

"Brother Wu, what are you doing? Why hit A-Chao?"

"Yeah, Brother Wu, what did Brother Chao do wrong that you hit him right away?"

"Brother Wu, what A-Chao said was true, he really didn't know you were coming! Otherwise, we would have certainly come down to welcome you!"

The three spoke up one after another, showing their dissatisfaction, but in their hearts, there was an underlying panic! Because the situation had escalated beyond their expectations.

"Wu... Brother Wu, I'm really sorry! Next time you come, I'll definitely come down to welcome you in person; I truly realize my mistake this time!"

Jiang Jinchao gasped, then immediately lowered his head and apologized to Wu Jindao.

"Heh, you ignorant bunch, do you think Brother Wu hit Jiang Jinchao just because he didn't come down to greet him?"

Fan Yi looked around with a mocking expression before fixing his gaze on Jiang Jinchao, looking down at him from a higher vantage point.

"Especially you, Jiang Laoer, you should be the one who knows best why Brother Wu is hitting you!"

"Fan Yi, what do you mean by that?" Jiang Jinchao looked coldly at Fan Yi, asking in a deep voice.

"What, still pretending with me? Don't you have a clue?" Fan Yi sneered with a face full of schadenfreude.

Jiang Jinchao turned his head back to Wu Jindao, his eyes filled with bewilderment, asking, "Brother Wu, what did I do wrong? I have always been conscientious in the Golden Saber Society, never showing a single moment of slack, yet you treat me like this?"

"A-Chao, for the sake of old times, if you're willing to confess your mistake voluntarily, maybe I'll spare your life! But at this point, are you still going to pretend you don't know and won't repent?"

Wu Jindao coldly stared at him, asking in a calm voice.

"Brother Wu, I really don't understand what you're talking about? How am I unrepentant, what mistake have I made?" Jiang Jinchao asked excitedly.

"Hmph! Jiang Laoer, are you still trying to play the good guy here? Since you don't understand, let me help you recall it! Last time Brother Wu was twice ambushed, wasn't it because you colluded with the Feng Family and the Zhan Family, wasn't it your good deed? Traitor, and you still claim you're being wronged!"

Fan Yi shouted sternly, questioning.

At these words, Jiang Jinchao showed an expression of disbelief, a strong anger rising in his heart. He glared coldly at Fan Yi and shouted angrily, "Fan, don't fabricate facts and throw mud on me! I've always been loyal to Brother Wu, how could I possibly collude with the Feng Family and the Zhan Family to assassinate Brother Wu!"

"Heh, you still pretend at this point? Do you think you can escape what you've done? I wonder how long you can keep pretending!"

Fan Yi said with a face full of ridicule.

"Fan Yi, don't act all smug here and falsely accuse me! Brother Wu, I really had nothing to do with it, I've been utterly loyal to you, never having the slightest intention to harm you! The assassination the last time could not possibly have been my doing, please believe me, and don't listen to the words of petty people!"

Jiang Jinchao hurriedly turned his head, emphatically speaking to Wu Jindao.
