Chapter 830: Chapter 829: The Zhang Family’s Foundation

Zhang Xiaoshan followed Jiang Man to the city government compound, outside a standalone three-story building.

Jiang Hanwen was already waiting at the door.

Along with Jiang Hanwen was Jiang Qi.

Today, Jiang Qi was also dressed casually, in light blue pencil pants and a light yellow sweater, looking quite charming.

She and her sister Jiang Man had two completely different styles, each attractive in its own way; if combined, it would be wonderful.

"Mayor Jiang, thank you for rescuing me."

"But for you to personally come and get me, I’m flattered."

As soon as Zhang Xiaoshan got out of the car, he started making polite conversation.

After all, Jiang Hanwen was the leader of a city with over three million people.

Jiang Hanwen said with a chuckle.

"There’s no mayor here, just an old father. Hehe, Little Shan, consider yourself at home here, don’t be too formal."

There was some implication in his words, clearly, he already knew about Zhang Xiaoshan’s relationship with Jiang Man.

Jiang Man’s cheeks turned red.

"Dad, it’s windy outside, let’s talk inside."

"Alright, alright, let’s talk inside."

The four of them went back into the room.

"Dad, should I go to the kitchen and help Auntie with the cooking?"

Feeling a bit embarrassed to face Zhang Xiaoshan after selling him out last time, Jiang Qi found an excuse to slip away.

Jiang Man, Jiang Hanwen, and Zhang Xiaoshan headed to the study.

The three sat down.

Jiang Hanwen got straight to the point.

"Little Shan, you’re my savior, so I’ll speak frankly to you."

"Actually, your arrest this time wasn’t an accident; someone was behind it."

"Someone was pulling strings?"

Zhang Xiaoshan had already suspected this because Baldy Liu’s subordinates wouldn’t betray him for no reason.

Someone must have bought them off.

"Do you know who it is?"

"The Zhang family."

"The Zhang family?"

"Zhang Jian’s Zhang family?"

"Correct."

Jiang Hanwen confirmed.

"On the surface, it looks like they wanted to catch you, but actually they were targeting me."

"You are my savior and have a romantic relationship with Little Man, so the Zhang family has already considered you to be on my side."

"You know, I’m an outsider in this position, while the Zhang family is a local power. Their family’s hotel and entertainment businesses are mixed with a lot of shady dealings, which I’ve cracked down on multiple times, making them very hostile towards me."

"Especially a few days ago, when that video of Zhang Jian was exposed. The Zhang family thinks I orchestrated it, but my status is protected by the authorities, so they don’t dare to touch me for now. They want to start with you instead."

"I see!"

Zhang Xiaoshan finally understood what was going on.

He didn’t doubt Jiang Hanwen’s source of information, given Jiang’s status, obtaining some intel was no difficult task—it’s possible that Jiang Hanwen even has informants within the Zhang family.

"Uncle Jiang, rest assured, I will definitely handle the Zhang family’s schemes later."

Jiang Hanwen remained serious.

"What I’m worried about is not the Zhang family plotting against you, but assassination, Little Shan. You know about Martial Artists, right?"

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded.

"So, you mean the Zhang family has Martial Artists?"

"Correct."

Jiang Hanwen explained.

"The old family head of the Zhang family, Zhang Xiong, was once renowned as the top expert in Yang City, formidable in strength. If he acts personally, it’ll be quite troublesome."

"Oh?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was slightly surprised, but only slightly.

"Uncle Jiang, Sister Man, don’t worry, even if the Zhang family really tries an assassination, they won’t be a match for me; I have plenty of backup."

Jiang Man still worriedly said.

"Little Shan, I know you’re quite skilled, but the Zhang family is not to be underestimated. Each generation of them is more despicable than the last, I’m afraid you’ll be in danger."

"Dad, why don’t you assign a few guards to Little Shan?"

"I think that’s a good idea." Jiang Hanwen nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan knew he couldn’t keep pretending, or Jiang Man certainly wouldn’t be at ease.

After a moment of hesitation, Zhang Xiaoshan decided to come clean and said.

"Uncle Jiang, Sister Man, actually my abilities far exceed the Zhang family’s, and if it really comes to an underground power struggle, the Zhang family won’t be a match for me."

"Oh?"

The two looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, clearly suspicious.

Jiang Man felt more like Zhang Xiaoshan was just trying to find an excuse to comfort her.

Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled bitterly and asked.

"Uncle Jiang, Sister Man, have you ever heard of the recently risen White Dragon Association?"

Jiang Hanwen nodded.

"Of course I’ve heard of it. This force emerged suddenly and is quite formidable. I’ve tried cleaning up the Sanhe Gang multiple times, but because of that super expert Yang Qing, it hasn’t happened."

"I’ve heard the leader of the White Dragon Association easily killed Yang Qing, truly terrifying."

"So, Little Shan, do you have connections with the White Dragon Association? If so, and you can get them involved, the Zhang family definitely won’t dare to touch you." Jiang Man said.

Zhang Xiaoshan chuckled.

"Actually, I’m the leader of the White Dragon Association."

"What?"

Those words stunned Jiang Hanwen and Jiang Man.
