After the call connected, Jiang Chen explained Lin Wan’s brother’s situation to Zhang Long.

As soon as Zhang Long heard, his voice on the phone changed.

”This... Mr. Jiang, it’s not that I don’t want to help, although I’m doing okay in Jinhai, I don’t have the power to call all the shots. In the past few years, a newcomer named Tu Jiuyi has emerged, a real tough character across the river—everyone calls him Xue Tu. His methods are ruthless.

I thought we could keep to our own turfs, but who knew he would even plot against me. The Blood Rhino Horn gift he sent me last time was a threat to my life, completely aimed at taking my place!”

”And the place you mentioned belongs to Xue Tu. If I don’t plead for mercy it’s still fine, but if I do, the matter could become even more troublesome!”

Listening to Zhang Long’s apologetic voice coming from the loudspeaker of the phone, Lin Wan and Ye Jingyi’s expressions changed.

Lin Wan was close to tears, ”What do we do now?”

Jiang Chen hung up the call, saying softly, ”What else can we do? We go directly to the casino!”

Tears rolled down Lin Wan’s face as she felt a wave of despair, ”Go directly to the casino? But I don’t have that much money!”

Ye Jingyi comforted Lin Wan for a bit then turned to Jiang Chen, ”Stop staring blankly, think of something fast.”

”Didn’t I tell you? Go directly to the casino!” Jiang Chen spoke again, ”If you don’t have money, does that mean you won’t save your brother? Let’s first go and see what’s happening, talk to them, maybe there will be a way out?”

Ye Jingyi thought for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Wan, ”Jiang Chen is right, let’s go have a look.”

Lin Wan had lost her wits and nodded in response, ”That’s the only option we have!”

The three left the café, with Ye Jingyi driving Jiang Chen and herself towards the outskirts where the casino was located, inside a nightclub.

It was an urgent situation. The car sped along the road as Ye Jingyi drove and comforted Lin Wan, while Jiang Chen watched the scenery outside the window.

”Careful.” Jiang Chen casually looked around and suddenly saw an oncoming Mercedes driving straight toward their car, quickly shouting a warning.

”Bang—Screech!”

Ye Jingyi quickly turned the steering wheel, but the car still collided slightly with the oncoming vehicle, and she stomped on the brakes immediately.

”What’s wrong with you? Can’t you drive?” The driver’s side door of the Mercedes opened, and a young man got out and started cursing at Ye Jingyi’s car, ”Are you blind or what? Couldn’t you see my car coming?”

Ye Jingyi and the others got out of the car, checked the scratches, and fortunately, it was just the paint that got scraped off, no serious damage.

”Wow, it’s a beauty behind the wheel.” The youth brightened upon seeing Ye Jingyi, ”Beauty, since you’ve hit my car, what are you going to do about it? Pay me?”

Ye Jingyi’s brows furrowed, ”You were driving in the wrong direction, and you’re saying I hit your car? You should be paying me!”

”Pay you?” The young man glared, pointing at Ye Jingyi’s car, ”Where is your car even damaged? It’s just a bit of paint gone, right? Look at my car, the headlight is broken, so you should be the one to pay.”

”Are you even reasonable?” Lin Wan shouted angrily, already in a bad mood, and now having to deal with someone like this really set her off.

The youth raised his head arrogantly, ”Reasonable? My word is reason.”

”You...” Lin Wan was lightly fuming, her chest heaving violently with anger.

Jiang Chen’s face darkened as he shouted at the brash young man, ”Quit being arrogant here, pay up quickly.”

Ye Jingyi reached out to hold back Jiang Chen and Lin Wan, speaking softly, ”Forget it, don’t stoop to his level, let’s go. We’ve still got issues to resolve.”

Jiang Chen and Lin Wan thought about it and agreed, preparing to leave.

”Wait!” The young man saw the three were leaving and stepped forward to block Ye Jingyi. He reached out toward Ye Jingyi’s face, ”If you’re not paying up, then we can settle it another way. I don’t mind!”

”Bang—”

Jiang Chen’s expression turned cold, and he kicked out, sending the young man flying backward onto the hood of the Mercedes.

”You dare to lay a hand on my wife, are you tired of living?” said Jiang Chen with a cold voice, moving forward to grab the young man and landing a heavy punch on his face, ”Apologize and pay up now.”

”Kid, do you know who I am? Believe it or not, I can have people come and kill you!” The young man struggled furiously, shouting arrogantly.

Jiang Chen’s gaze turned icy as he looked at the young man, ”I don’t know if you can have someone come and kill me, but if you don’t apologize and pay up now, I’ll let you know what death feels like immediately!”

”I... Ah!”

The young man was about to put on a tough front when Jiang Chen twisted his hand, making him cry out in pain.

”I’ll pay, I’ll pay up!” Unable to free himself and realizing he was no match for Jiang Chen, the young man quickly cowed and took out a stack of cash from his pocket, handing it over to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen took the money without counting it and landed another punch, ”Is paying up enough? Apologize!”

”Yes, yes, yes.”

The young man didn’t dare argue, immediately getting up and bowing his head to apologize to Ye Jingyi and Lin Wan, ”I’m sorry, it was my fault for driving on the wrong side of the road. I’m sorry, very sorry.”

Jiang Chen handed the money to Ye Jingyi, seeking her opinion with a look.

Ye Jingyi hesitated for a moment, took the money, and said in a soft voice, ”Let him go.”

”Get lost!”

Jiang Chen pushed the young man, sending him tumbling down from the hood of the car.

Falling to the ground, the young man glared fiercely at Jiang Chen, got into his car, fired it up, rolled down the window, and cursed out loud, ”Kid, you damn wait for it, I’ll make sure you’re dead!”

Jiang Chen lifted his foot as if to go after him, but the young man quickly pressed down on the gas pedal and sped away.

Watching the man drive off, Ye Jingyi frowned and complained to Jiang Chen, ”Jiang Chen, can’t you be a little less violent?”

In a hurry, Lin Wan said, ”Exactly, you know my brother is in danger right now, why are you wasting time here? Let’s go.”

Jiang Chen ignored Lin Wan and turned to Ye Jingyi with an apologetic grin, ”Heh, it won’t happen again, I’ll change next time.”

Ye Jingyi gave Jiang Chen a blank look and said irritably, ”Alright, let’s go.”

”Okay.”

Jiang Chen nodded in response, and the three got back into the car and continued driving towards the outskirts.

”Jiang Chen, I’m telling you, you can’t be this violent at the casino. My brother is still in their hands; what if they hurt him?!” Lin Wan reminded him anxiously as soon as they got in the car.

Jiang Chen nodded, ”Alright, you call the shots, no violence.”

”Just remember that!” Ye Jingyi glared at Jiang Chen and continued driving toward the outskirts.

No violence? Are you sure you can solve the problem without violence in that kind of place? Do you think you’re going to a debate competition where you can get by with just talking?

Jiang Chen curled his lip and silently shook his head with a sigh.
