Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Setting Out with Just Cause

Chen Ziyang was truly enraged this time!

He had already provided Shen Minghai with the clues on Qiao Xiongtai.

According to Qiao Fei’s description, the Shen Family was powerful enough in He County to handle someone like Qiao Xiongtai within a week, at most.

Chen Ziyang pretended to have a conflict with He Yongsheng, all to confuse Qiao Xiongtai and buy himself a week’s time.

But now, not only had Qiao Xiongtai not been targeted by the Shen Family, but he also managed to have spare time to hire an assassin to deal with him?

Even threatening his own woman!

How could Chen Ziyang not be angry?

Shen Minghai paused for a moment, and his tone slightly changed, "President Chen, we are indeed still looking into this matter."

"What are you looking into? I can tell you right now, Qiao Xiongtai is the mastermind behind all this!"

Chen Ziyang said gravely, "Your cheap brother and his mother are the ones who laid the poison! Is that clear enough for you?"

Shen Minghai pondered for a moment.

"President Chen, if it’s just about punishing that mother and son, I don’t need any evidence! But dealing with Qiao Xiongtai... it’s not that simple."

Chen Ziyang narrowed his eyes.

He understood.

Though Qiao Fei had some dealings with the upper echelons in He County, her knowledge was limited.

The Shen Family was strong, but not as invincible as she imagined.

Qiao Xiongtai might not be as influential as Shen Wanlin, but he was much tougher than Qiao Fei thought!

The three powerhouses, standing side by side, would certainly not have a gulf-like disparity.

"So, you can’t touch Qiao Xiongtai because you can’t find any evidence?"

Chen Ziyang spoke in a deep voice, "If I’m not wrong, you not only can’t find any evidence but you don’t even have a clue, right?"

Shen Minghai fell silent.

Indeed, Qiao Xiongtai had been too cautious with this matter.

Not giving them a single mistake to catch.

And from Qiao Xiongtai’s perspective, the only person who knew about Hundred Flowers and Grasses was Chen Ziyang.

With so much potential for things to go wrong over time, just killing Chen Ziyang would leave the Shen Family without any options.

"I understand now, I’ll deal with Qiao Xiongtai myself!"

Originally, Chen Ziyang hadn’t wanted to take direct action against Qiao Xiongtai.

A proverbial hundred-footed beast does not fall easily in death.

Someone of that caliber, if not thoroughly stripped of all his power, could well leave behind lingering problems.

But now that the other party had threatened someone close to him, Chen Ziyang didn’t need to have so many concerns anymore!

Just get it done!

"Ziyang, it’s better to think this through for the long term! Qiao Xiongtai has considerable influence in He County, and he also has some connections in the city. Taking action against him rashly could lead to big trouble for you!"

Shen Minghai hadn’t expected Chen Ziyang to be so resolute in wanting to deal with the matter personally.

Chen Ziyang snorted coldly, "I’m already in trouble! They’re already looking for assassins from outside!"

"What?!"

Shen Minghai was shocked, "He hired an assassin?"

"Enough, this is my own business, it has nothing to do with you!"

Saying this, Chen Ziyang was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait a moment..."

After a long pause, an elderly voice suddenly came through from the other end of the line.

Shen Wanlin.

"Chen, don’t rush off! Listen to what this old man has to say, okay?"

Shen Wanlin was with Shen Minghai.

Seeing how agitated Chen Ziyang was, Shen Wanlin also grew anxious.

On one hand, he always felt like he owed Chen Ziyang a favor, and now that Chen Ziyang was implicated because of his family’s issues, the old man felt rather guilty.

More importantly, if Chen Ziyang confronted Qiao Xiongtai, regardless of success, it would mark the end of the relationship with the Shen Family.

And what about Shen Jiayi?

It’s not easy to find such an outstanding young man!

Shen Wanlin wouldn’t let this relationship end here!

"Elder, you speak, I’m listening!"

Chen Ziyang’s tone softened slightly but remained cool.

"In fact, I do have a way to legitimately deal with Qiao Xiongtai."

Shen Wanlin’s voice lowered, "Chen, the Shen Family may have some status in He County, but at our level, every action must be justified. I hope you can understand that."

Chen Ziyang’s anger subsided a bit.

"Understood."

"Good, I knew you were reasonable, Chen."

Shen Wanlin spoke leisurely, "So, this time Qiao Xiongtai hiring an assassin against you might just be the reason we need to move against him!"

Chen Ziyang was taken aback.

Shen Wanlin laughed suddenly.

"As long as you’re part of the Shen Family, if he dares to touch you, I can destroy him!"
