Chapter 222: Chapter 222: A Monstrous Disaster
At that moment, Chen Man Ni had finally calmed down. Chen Wenxiong, his face grim, couldn’t help but ask:
"Mr. Qin, who exactly is behind all this?"
His face was filled with rage. Never before had anyone dared to touch Chen Man Ni right under his nose.
After this incident, Chen Wenxiong realized that if he didn’t show some backbone and resolve, any random nobody would dare to step on the Chen Family.
He decided it was time to use thunderous methods to intimidate everyone, making them think twice before trying to harm his precious daughter.
Qin Tuo, however, slowly shook his head and forced a smile.
"Mr. Chen, the matter is already over."
But Chen Wenxiong stood his ground.
"Mr. Qin, please tell me. No matter who the opponent is, I will risk the entire Chen Family fortune to ensure they die a miserable death."
Qin Tuo understood Chen Wenxiong’s feelings completely, but he still said:
"Don’t worry, I’ll handle this myself."
Qin Tuo knew perfectly well that even if Chen Wenxiong took action, it would be difficult for him to resolve the matter.
Besides, Qin Tuo already had a plan.
After spending half the day at the Chen Family’s home, Qin Tuo first made sure Chen Man Ni was settled and comfortable.
As he turned to leave, his gaze turned ice-cold!
Qin Tuo was about to begin his campaign of revenge. He would not let the people who secretly harmed Chen Man Ni get away with it!
"Hello, Celestial King..."
Long Wu’s heart leaped with joy when he answered Qin Tuo’s call.
After Qin Tuo went to the warehouse, Long Wu had been on edge, anxiously waiting for his call.
Now, Long Wu knew that Qin Tuo was finally safe and sound, and a huge weight was lifted from his shoulders.
Qin Tuo’s voice came slowly through the phone.
"Long Wu, I have an order for you. Within three days, use any means necessary to drive every single member of the Zhao Family out of Ming City, never to return!"
Long Wu was startled. He knew this meant the Zhao Family would be completely erased from Ming City from now on.
But when Long Wu recalled Qin Tuo’s earlier fury, he couldn’t help but suggest something.
"Celestial King, would you like this subordinate to secretly take care of the entire Zhao family...?"
However, Qin Tuo shook his head and said casually:
"No need. They’re just a bunch of pawns. Killing them would only dirty my hands. Just drive them out!"
Hearing this, Long Wu replied without hesitation:
"Yes, Celestial King! You can count on me!"
After settling these matters, Qin Tuo went straight to the Xu Family’s residence.
At the Xu residence, Xu Chao was sitting on the sofa, drinking tea with one leg crossed over the other.
He appeared relaxed, but internally, he was extremely puzzled.
’Hmm, something’s not right. Why has it been so many days? And there’s still no news from Jiang Liang?’
The longer he waited, the more worried Xu Chao became.
According to the plan, Jiang Liang should have succeeded by now.
But here he was at home, and he hadn’t received a single piece of news!
Just then, the door opened, and Xu Zhigang hurried home.
His wife, Wei Xiaolan, immediately came over, took Xu Zhigang’s coat, and asked with concern about his work.
"Ugh, don’t ask. Something big just happened. My head is about to explode!"
Xu Zhigang suddenly shook his head, his face a picture of helplessness.
Wei Xiaolan asked curiously:
"Oh? What happened? What’s troubling you so much?"
After sitting down, Xu Zhigang sighed in resignation and said:
"It’s like this... Zhao Peng, the son of the Zhao Family, was murdered. He was found dead in a suburban warehouse!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Xu Chao, who was on the nearby sofa, felt his heart clench violently.
He immediately had a bad feeling, and his heart sank to the pit of his stomach.
Wei Xiaolan was also stunned, speechless for a long moment.
"The Zhao Family’s son died so mysteriously? Who would be so bold?"
Hearing Wei Xiaolan’s question, Xu Zhigang couldn’t help but shake his head and snort coldly.
"That’s nothing! It’s not just him. That kid from the Provincial City Jiang Family also had his arm broken and was hospitalized. I have no idea who’s behind it, but they’re outrageously bold!"
Xu Zhigang knew full well how powerful the Jiang Family was. He couldn’t imagine who in Ming City would dare to be so ruthless to Jiang Liang.
CRASH!
On the sofa, Xu Chao’s face was a mask of shock. The teacup in his hand had slipped from his grasp, shattering on the floor.
Xu Zhigang immediately frowned and shot him a harsh glare.
"You useless thing! Just looking at you irritates me!"
Xu Chao scrambled to pick up the broken pieces from the floor.
But Wei Xiaolan asked with concern:
"Son, what’s wrong? What are you thinking about?"
She knew that her son, Xu Chao, had been cooped up at home for some time, not stepping out the door. She was worried that if this continued, he might develop some kind of psychological problem.
But Xu Chao quickly shook his head and said, flustered:
"Mom, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me!"
From the side, Xu Zhigang said irritably:
"Why are you worried about him? It’s best if he just stays home every day and doesn’t go out making trouble for me!"
Xu Zhigang thought about how, just a few days ago, he had gone to great lengths to speak with Qin Tuo and finally put the trouble Xu Chao had caused behind them.
Now, he just hoped that Xu Chao wouldn’t cause him any more trouble.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. Wei Xiaolan opened it, looking puzzled, only to see Qin Tuo standing on the threshold.
"Ah, it’s Mr. Qin!"
Wei Xiaolan’s voice gave even Xu Zhigang a slight start.
Beside them, Xu Chao’s face instantly turned deathly pale, as if he realized something!
Xu Zhigang hurried over to greet him politely.
"Mr. Qin, what brings you here in person? Is something the matter?"
Qin Tuo said nothing, simply striding into the house.
This scene left both Xu Zhigang and his wife looking utterly astonished, their minds racing with speculation.
Qin Tuo’s face was murderous as he stared coldly at Xu Chao inside the room.
At that sight, Xu Chao was so terrified that he collapsed to the floor, trembling uncontrollably!
Seeing this, Xu Zhigang also suddenly understood something, and his expression darkened slightly.
Qin Tuo’s voice was hoarse as he asked slowly:
"Xu Chao, was it you who called Jiang Liang to Ming City to kidnap Chen Man Ni?"
As these words fell, Xu Chao’s own eyes widened in shock.
He thought he must have misheard.
Meanwhile, the couple beside him, Xu Zhigang and Wei Xiaolan, were completely thunderstruck!
Their eyes were wide as saucers. They never, ever would have imagined... this was truly their worst fears coming to life.
Their good-for-nothing son had actually caused such a monumental disaster!
