"Li Yinlan, have you really seen through it?"
Pei Feng suddenly stood up and slowly walked towards her.
"There is an old saying that I believe you also know – weeds that are not cut by the roots will grow again when the spring breeze blows. Tell me … knowing this, why did I still let you stay? Why did I agree to leave your 10 people behind so that you can rebuild Jiangnan's Li family in the future? "
"Right now I am somewhat uncertain. I don't know if this decision of mine is right or wrong. Why don't you tell me, this decision of mine … is it right or wrong? "
With his hands behind his back, Pei Feng walked very slowly, one step at a time. His voice was unhurried, without a trace of killing intent.
He lowered his eyes and didn't look at Li Yinlan, his expression indifferent.
But even like this, Li Yinlan's face was completely drained of blood, deathly white like paper. Her entire body began to tremble like a sieve.
Fine beads of sweat … appeared on her forehead, temples, and even her palms were all soaked. It was all sweat!
Every step was like stepping on her heart. Every word was like the sharpest of thorns, deeply piercing into her heart.
Pei Feng slowly raised her head as she approached Zhang Xuan.
Their eyes met, close at hand. Pei Feng stared at her without blinking. His silver pupils revealed … an astonishingly icy coldness and a deep, unfathomable killing intent that caused one to tremble.
"Is it right, or is it wrong?"
It wasn't the truth, but it was better than the truth.
An invisible pressure close at hand, a voice that caused one to suffocate …
At this moment, Li Yinlan's mind collapsed. She completely surrendered!
With a 'peng' sound, she directly kneeled on the ground and replied in a low voice, "Yes … Mr Pei, your decision … is right!"
The hall was deathly silent. Wei Donglai and the others watched from the side. No one dared to make a sound, each of their expressions stern.
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of slow footsteps and Pei Feng's cold voice rang out at the same time, "This is the second time you've challenged my bottom line, Li Yinlan. There's an old saying that goes, 'one or two is no more than three'. If you do it again, only death will be waiting for you. Take care. "
"Also, you'd better believe it. Even without you and Nie Canghai, I can still turn the Immortal Realm upside down on my own. I can still slaughter my way out of the Solar Domain!"
As the sound of Pei Feng's voice faded, his voice reverberated in the air. He had already walked out of the courtyard and was heading towards the red maple forest.
Li Yinlan was still kneeling, panting softly, not daring to move an inch.
Her clothes … were already drenched in sweat.
"Li Yinlan, the decision made by Mr. Pei … is absolutely unquestionable. I advise you to settle the matters of the Li Family as soon as possible, take your 10 people and leave the Li Family to settle down."
Liu Chaozong said in a low voice.
Although Li Yinlan was the deputy head of Pei Meng in name, in reality, everyone in Pei Meng knew that she hadn't truly gained Pei Feng's trust. She … was still only one of Pei Feng's fiends.
"Vice Alliance Master Li, listen to my advice. Seize the Li Family's economic power and do it cleanly. Don't leave any hidden dangers behind. This is what you should be doing right now. As for the other things … it's best if you don't get involved. Otherwise, if you're the slightest bit careless, you'll end up burning yourself."
"When it's time to make a decision, make a decision. Don't get yourself into trouble. Pei Meng was founded to deal with the Li Family of Jiangnan and the Pei Family of the imperial capital. This is a fact that no one can change. You can only choose to accept it. "
Wei Donglai and Xiao Changqing spoke up as well.
They didn't have a deep friendship with Li Yinlan, but they didn't want to see internal strife in Pei Meng.
In reality, these elders of Pei Meng all understood that as long as they didn't go against Pei Feng's wishes, didn't touch his bottom line, and treated Kerou well, then everything was negotiable. Pei Feng would never mistreat them.
The benefits that could be obtained in Pei Meng … were things that no family or sect in China could obtain!
After a long time, Li Yinlan slowly stood up and turned to walk out the door. "Thank you, everyone … please help me tell Mr. Pei that I'm going back to the Li Family. Within seven days, I'll definitely settle all the matters of the Li Family!"
…
Late at night, five days later, at the Li Family Courtyard in Nantong City, Jiangbei.
The meeting hall was brightly lit. It was filled with people, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
"Dad! Are you going to do something about this or not?! "
A middle-aged woman dressed in luxurious clothes, a pretty face, and a cold look in her eyes screamed. "What is Li Longxing and his family trying to do? While our Li Family is in danger, they're colluding with outsiders to buy a large amount of shares in secret!
Now, more than 60% of the shares of Spring Brook, Hall of Spring and Autumn, and Shenghui Real Estate Limited have been snatched by them! If this isn't a traitor, then what is?! "
Another bald-headed middle-aged man with a gloomy face said coldly, "Li Longxing and Zhang Jinrong have disappeared from this world. No one can contact them. Their daughter, Li Yinlan, is also missing. She can't get through to their cell phone. She won't answer our calls, and she won't even reply to our WeChat messages! Dad, say something. How should we deal with this?! "
As soon as the bald-headed middle-aged man finished speaking, all the direct descendants of the Li Family jumped out one by one. All of them were furious and exasperated.
"F * ck them!"
The ashen-faced Li Jiahang also jumped out and cursed, "This crisis of our Li Family's properties is premeditated! Li Longxing and his family must have been plotting for a long time. They want to collude with outsiders to seize power and occupy our properties!
"Especially that rotten bitch, Li Yinlan! She knows that the Li Family's heirloom is only passed down to males and not females. She's been coveting our Spring Brook for a long time! Don't let me catch her. If I do, I'll slap that rotten bitch to death! "
Amidst the condemnation, angry roars and curses, there was also a different voice.
"Maybe Li Longxing and his family are doing this … to protect our Li Family's properties."
"Yeah, as long as the properties are still in our hands, it won't be a big problem."
"This time, we're being suppressed by so many partners maliciously and spreading rumors. It must be premeditated! Now isn't the time for us to fight among ourselves. The most important thing is to solve the current crisis of our Li Family! "
"Who did this? Their methods are too despicable and shameless! "
…
In a dense forest thousands of meters away from the Li Family's compound.
Li Yinlan quietly listened to everything that was going on in the meeting hall.
After listening for a while, her face became colder and colder. The curses and insults directed at her and her parents … were getting more and more unpleasant and vicious. Many people were already cursing her family to die a horrible death!
