The next morning, nine assassins gathered at the Zheng Family.

Zheng Gaoxuan was quite pleased, feeling that the money was well spent and worth the value.

"Butler, take these nine experts to a guest room to rest first. Tonight we'll take action."

"Yes, master."

The butler led the nine out of the main hall and to the backyard.

Zheng Tianyu was quite excited, "Dad, with these nine assassins, we no longer have to fear the Sea Dragon King!"

"Taking out Chen Xuan will be a piece of cake!"

Zheng Gaoxuan, with a calm demeanor, said coldly, "Do not be complacent! We still need to plan thoroughly to ensure nothing goes wrong."

"This afternoon, you meet with Chen Xuan and Su Dahai on behalf of the Zheng Family, pretending to make peace with them."

"I'll have people take Lin Wanxi while we're at it! Tonight's plan to kill Chen Xuan will surely be successful!"

Although Zheng Tianyu felt somewhat reluctant, he also thought it was the best arrangement, "Alright, I'll follow father's plan."

That afternoon, Zheng Tianyu went to New Moon Company.

Upon seeing Chen Xuan, he assumed a friendly posture, "Mr. Chen, apologies for yesterday's offenses."

"My father sent me today to represent the Zheng Family in offering our apologies to you. I've booked a private room and specially invite you to have a chat and fully resolve the conflict."

Oh?

Chen Xuan gave a playful smile, "Am I the only one invited?"

"The Sea Dragon King will also be present." Zheng Tianyu said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, please don't overthink. The Zheng Family just wants to show our sincerity; it's better to make peace than enmity, hahaha."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Alright, I'll give your Zheng Family this face and come over in a bit."

"Very well, then I'll head over first and await your presence," Zheng Tianyu bowed and exited the office.

With a contemptuous sneer, he left New Moon Company.

Lin Wanxi was in a daze, "What kind of trick is the Zheng Family playing out of the blue? Do you think they plan to harm you secretly?"

Chen Xuan dismissed it with a laugh, "No matter what motives they have, even if it's a Hongmen Banquet, I'm not afraid at all!"

Just then, Su Dahai called, "Son-in-law, I just got an invitation from Zheng Tianyu to a banquet for you and me. What do you think about this?"

"We'll just go to the banquet and see if the Zheng Family dares to play any tricks," Chen Xuan answered softly.

Su Dahai laughed heartily, "Great, just as I thought! I bet the Zheng Family won't dare to play tricks!"

"Let's meet later; I'm heading over now."

"Alright." Chen Xuan hung up the phone and looked at Lin Wanxi, "Stay at the company and wait for me to come back. You don't need to worry about me."

Lin Wanxi nodded, not saying much.

After Chen Xuan left, Lin Wanxi's eyes showed uncertainty. The phone call from Su Dahai had disturbed her thoughts.

After thinking for a while, she decided to talk to Su Linlang face to face.

She then dialed Su Linlang's phone number, "Hello, Ms. Su, this is Lin Wanxi."

"Do you have time now? I'd like to talk to you alone."

"Sure, I've always wanted to meet with Ms. Lin, but just never found the right opportunity."

Su Linlang agreed without hesitation, "Let's find a place to meet."

After agreeing on a meeting place, Lin Wanxi got up and left the office.

The two met in a park near Zhonghai University.

"Ms. Lin, I've always wanted to apologize to you in person, but don't dare to expect your forgiveness."

"But I can state clearly that I have no intention of competing for Chen Xuan with you, so please rest assured."

Su Linlang spoke first, humbling herself as if she was the one at fault.

Instead, it made Lin Wanxi at a loss for words, smiling bitterly, "Ms. Su, there's no need to apologize to me, it's not your fault."

"I want to know what your plan is now? Are you still going to continue with Chen Xuan?"

Su Linlang shook her head, "I don't know, to be honest, I don't want to lose Chen Xuan, but I also don't want to damage the relationship between you two, so... I'm very conflicted."

"Ms. Lin, whether you believe it or not, I've told Chen Xuan more than once that I completely respect his choice."

"If he chooses to leave me and go back to you, I will not complain at all."

Lin Wanxi smiled wryly, "You also know Chen Xuan is a responsible man, he won't just abandon you."

"Ms. Su, I hope you will willingly give up on Chen Xuan, can you?"

Su Linlang sighed helplessly, "I'm sorry Ms. Lin, I tried before but ultimately failed."

"I really can't let him go, nor can I persuade myself to. Unless Chen Xuan decides to leave me, then I will truly give up and sincerely wish you two the best."

For a moment, Lin Wanxi was speechless, unsure of what to say.

The two fell into a moment of silence.

Just then, the accompanying servant suddenly burst out, "Ms. Lin, come with us!"

"Take both together!"

Lin Wanxi and Su Linlang's expressions changed dramatically, they had no power to resist and were forcibly taken into a car.

At that moment.

Zheng Tianyu received a call informing him that they had successfully captured Lin Wanxi.

He hadn't expected it to go so smoothly, thinking he would have to wait until nightfall to act.

Now, there's no need to act along with Chen Xuan and Su Dahai any longer.

Zheng Tianyu's eyes darted, "Why not take this opportunity to quietly eliminate both of them!"

"Tonight, destroy the Sea Dragon Gang in one fell swoop, and eliminate future troubles once and for all!"

With a secret smile, he mixed the prepared poison into the drinks.

Colorless, tasteless, it couldn't be distinguished with the naked eye.

Everything was ready, and Zheng Tianyu returned to the dining table to personally pour drinks for the two.

"Mr. Chen, Dragon Lord, I toast to you both."

Zheng Tianyu raised his glass to show his respect...
