Chapter 3980: Chapter 3980: Furious—Offending a Big Shot for Nothing

"I wasn’t..." Vancouver was about to argue.

Old Xue interrupted him: "If you had investigated a little, you would have known Qiao Nian’s relationship with these two families. I told you it was she who refused to release the person, then you should have done a proper check. I didn’t expect you hadn’t even checked, nor did you discuss it with me before running off to randomly look for people."

Vancouver realized that the other party was blaming him for the unnecessary 800 million, and felt a mix of emotions, as if a gas cylinder had been kicked over. Many times he wanted to turn against the other party but was apprehensive of the reclusive family’s power, and he forcibly suppressed the anger that nearly choked him. He said in a flat tone: "Since everyone has their faults here, I won’t ask for the things you promised me before. Let this matter end here, and I won’t be involved in what happens next!"

He regretted it deeply.

Was nearly furious.

The reclusive family had dug a big pit for him, not only did he foolishly jump in, but he also voluntarily made the pit larger.

Now, he didn’t gain any benefits and had offended the Red Alliance in the illegal zone and the big boss behind it.

Every time Vancouver thought of this, he struggled to breathe, his face turned grim, and not waiting for Old Xue to speak, he abruptly hung up the phone, threw his mobile on the leather seat, and collapsed back into his seat.

The driver was waiting at the red light ahead, hearing the heated words and sudden hang-up from Vancouver in the back, he cautiously minimized his presence.

"Sir, are we going back to the hotel?"

In the back, Vancouver ruffled his hair, looked up, his eyes bloodshot. Compared to Beijing, he seemed much dejected: "Yes, let’s go back."

"Alright." The driver dared not say much.

Vancouver painfully closed his eyes, his mind a jumbled mess, unable to organize his thoughts, but he still knew one thing clearly — he had offended a big boss in the illegal zone!

Vancouver suddenly realized, and anxiously started finding connections, like ants on a hot pan, attempting to contact someone he knew in the illegal zone, and further attempt to reach Qiao Nian to apologize.

The progress wasn’t smooth.

He could only contact minor figures in the illegal zone, unable to reach any major players.

And even if he found a few major figures in the illegal zone who could speak, besides Lu Zhi, no one could actually get in touch with Zhui Guang.

He couldn’t even speak to them, let alone ask them to plead on his behalf.

Vancouver frantically sought out a bunch of people, with no good result. He couldn’t even get Qiao Nian’s phone number, let alone the face-to-face apology he intended.

Vancouver returned to his hotel room and still tried to mobilize all his connections to contact Qiao Nian, but each attempt ended with no response...

**

Ye Wangchuan hadn’t woken up from his coma even by the third day.

It was a full two days later than what Bi Yiyuan and Qiao Nian had expected.

During this time, Qin Si contacted Beijing and informed Old Master Ye about Ye Wangchuan’s condition.

Old Master Ye was quite alarmed and immediately contacted Qiao Nian to prepare himself to fly over to the illegal zone. But due to his special status which made it difficult for him to come, Master Nie and others talked him out of it, so Ye Lan brought Ye Qichen over instead.

On the day Ye Lan arrived, Qiao Nian arranged for their accommodation and then took them to the hospital.

Ye Lan saw Ye Wangchuan and also found Yu Yan to ask about Ye Wangchuan’s physical condition. Learning that Ye Wangchuan was only in a coma and hadn’t woken up, she wasn’t as worried.

She patted the girl’s shoulder and offered, "I’ll call Dad, so he doesn’t worry alone at home."

Qiao Nian, wearing a hoodie, nodded lazily with exhaustion: "Okay."

Ye Lan couldn’t help but notice the dark circles under her eyes, a sign of not resting well, and felt both heartache and concern. In the end, she didn’t say anything more to add to Qiao Nian’s burden and went aside to call Old Master Ye at home to relay the news.
