After Butler Lu left, Elder Master Jiang turned his head back and fixed his stare on Gong Jianqiang, who met Grandpa Ye's gaze with an unwavering smile.
"It seems you have decided to get involved in the inevitable turmoil of my Jiang Family," Elder Master Jiang said gravely.
"Yes," Gong Jianqiang said with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid that your boat will capsize, bringing catastrophe to your Gong Family?" Elder Master Jiang's expression solidified.
Gong Jianqiang's expression became serious as well: "Naturally, I am afraid. But I have faith in your abilities, Elder Master, and in your determination to fight for your grandson. Besides... I have been observing Jiang Chen for a while now, and I think he is much stronger than you were at his age."
"Oh?"
Elder Master Jiang's expression went from shock to great delight!
...
Meanwhile, in another courtyard of the Jiang Family Courtyard.
A middle-aged man stared at the computer screen displaying the Jinhai City wanted notice for Jiang Chen. His expression was grim as he muttered to himself, "It's him! He's the one I've been looking for! He really does look a lot like that guy!"
Pulling out his phone, the middle-aged man dialed a number.
"Family Head, what are your orders?" As the call connected, a respectful voice came through the handset.
"Chen Long, that bastard is in Jinhai City! Send someone to kill him immediately!" The middle-aged man spoke coldly.
After hanging up, the middle-aged man looked at the computer screen again, then suddenly swung his arm and "bang," the whole computer screen shattered.
...
The next day, Gong Lin brought Ye Yùwǎn to the police station and went straight to the chief of police.
In the chief's office, Gong Lin handed over Ye Yùwǎn's phone to the chief: "Chief, there is a recording here, please listen to it."
The chief played the recording and immediately frowned deeply.
"Chief, I can also testify," Ye Yùwǎn said urgently, "Jiang Chen is innocent, he was framed!"
The chief shook his head gently, "Your testimony and this recording at most can only prove that you weren't kidnapped by Jiang Chen, but his resisting arrest and assaulting Sun Jiayu are facts; we cannot release him."
"He did that because he was rushing to save Ye Jingyi; Sun Jiayu is the main culprit behind the kidnappings of Ye Yùwǎn and Ye Jingyi," Gong Lin hurried to explain.
The chief looked at Gong Lin and asked softly, "What about Ye Jingyi? Why didn't she come?"
"Ye Jingyi... she is still in a coma," Gong Lin said quietly, shaking her head. "She can't come!"
The chief shook his head again, "Ye Jingyi is still in a coma; there's no direct evidence. Besides, you know how powerful the Sun Family is in Jinhai; we are under a lot of pressure too!"
"Pressure? I'm afraid if you insist on holding Jiang Chen, your pressure will only increase," Gong Lin said coldly.
The chief frowned at Gong Lin, displeased, "Miss, are you trying to intimidate me?"
"I'm not intimidating you; I'm just telling it like it is," Gong Lin stated flatly.
"Hmph!" The chief snorted coldly, looking at Gong Lin sarcastically, "In Jinhai, who could possibly exert more pressure on me than the Sun Family?"
Suddenly, a muffled sound was heard as the door to the chief's office was pushed open forcefully, and a group of people barged in.
The leader was a man over fifty, dressed plainly, but with an imposing demeanor.
"Who is this?" The chief frowned and demanded loudly at the newcomers.
"Lu Yongnian of the Jiang Family of Jincheng," Butler Lu announced his identity.
Jiang Family of Jincheng?! The chief was startled, his heart trembled violently, and he was dumbfounded.
Why had this colossal family come to his humble police station office?
Without daring to think further, the chief quickly said with utmost respect, "Good day, sir. May I ask what brings you here?"
Butler Lu said resolutely, "Release Jiang Chen!"
"Jiang Chen?!" The chief was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Why?"
Butler Lu held his head high, and in a firm and cold voice, he said word by word, "Because Jiang Chen is one of our Jiang Family."
Thump!
The chief collapsed into his chair, staring blankly at Butler Lu as cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Oh my god, people from the Jiang Family?!
I actually had someone from the Jiang Family arrested!
Do I have a death wish?
Ye Yùwǎn looked at Butler Lu with a face full of shock.
Jiang Chen... when did he become a member of the Jiang Family of Jincheng? Is he... that formidable?
Meanwhile, Gong Lin was slightly surprised for a moment, and finally understood why her father valued Jiang Chen so much. She looked at the chief with the corner of her mouth curling into a faint smile.
Feeling Gong Lin's smile, the chief inwardly laughed bitterly,
Dammit, this pressure... it's too much!
An hour later, Jiang Chen walked out from the detention area.
Gong Lin was eagerly waiting at the door of the detention area. Seeing Jiang Chen come out, she rushed over and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you!" Jiang Chen gently embraced Gong Lin, thanked her, looked around, and asked with confusion, "Did Zhang Long come?"
Gong Lin let go of Jiang Chen and nodded gently, "They're over there."
Saying this, she gestured with a backward wave of her hand.
Jiang Chen looked in that direction.
Outside the detention area, seven domineering vehicles lined up in a row, quietly waiting there, unbridledly radiating their irresistible metallic dominance.
"Mr. Jiang, we've come to pick you up."
Zhang Long got out of the leading car, dressed in black, bowed respectfully to Jiang Chen, and opened the car door.
Jiang Chen approached him and asked indifferently, "Where is Sun Zhengfeng?"
"At the Sun family's villa."
Jiang Chen turned to Gong Lin, "Gong Lin, you go back first. I've got some things to take care of."
"Okay!" Gong Lin knew what Jiang Chen was going to do and nodded gently, "Be careful!"
"Don't worry!"
Jiang Chen turned around and waved his hand,
"Let's go."
...
At the Sun family's villa, in the living room.
The members of the Sun Family were discussing how to deal with the Ye Family, with Sun Jialin sitting there frowning, silent.
Among the crowd were Jiang Chen's ex-wife, Li Liyun, and former mother-in-law, Xu Yan.
The two women learned from the arrest warrant that Jiang Chen had offended the Sun Family and hurried over to ally with the Sun Family against Jiang Chen.
When Sun Zhengfeng heard that Li Liyun was Jiang Chen's ex-wife, he also welcomed them.
At this moment, Xu Yan looked at Sun Zhengfeng with a flattering gaze: "Family Head Sun, you really have a way! That loser Jiang Chen was already unreasonable when he was with our family, and we could do nothing about him. Now it's great, he's going to rot in jail!"
Sun Zhengfeng snorted coldly and waved his hand, "Humph! Dealing with such a loser is nothing."
Li Liyun's face was grim as she said, "What are you planning to do with the Ye Family, Family Head Sun? Count us in. That loser Jiang Chen became a live-in son-in-law at the Ye Family, and we couldn't deal with him—we had to bear it. Now that we have the chance, we want to get even!"
Sun Zhengfeng glanced at Li Liyun and her mother, his eyes showing a malevolent glint, "I can take you with me, but..."
Li Liyun and her mother took the hint, stood up, and sat beside Sun Zhengfeng, one on each side.
Li Liyun and Xu Yan wrapped Sun Zhengfeng's arm and rubbed it against their chest, "Family Head Sun, as long as you can help us get revenge, you can do whatever you want."
The men of the Sun Family all showed looks of understanding.
Sun Jialin gave Li Liyun a glance, his expression odd, thinking to himself: Was Jiang Chen blind when he chose such rubbish to be his wife?
Still, he laughed heartily, "Rest assured, Jiang Chen and the Ye Family are done for this time!"
