Hearing Zhong Jialiang's words, Xiao Bing was a little surprised at first, and then he smiled. The matter between him and the Wei Family had now spread throughout Huaxia, so it was not surprising that Zhong Jialiang knew about it.
Xiao Bing looked at Zhong Jialiang with some disappointment and asked with a smile, "Is this what you want to tell me?"
"Of course not. If that's all, then I would be making fun of Brother Bing. I don't have the guts to do that."
Zhong Jialiang's words made Xiao Bing feel strange. Could it be that this man really knew some inside information that he did not know? But how could a nobody like him know about the Wei Family's actions? Zhong Jialiang did have some power on the dock, but for Xiao Bing and the Wei Family, he was really just a nobody.
Zhong Jialiang knew what Xiao Bing was thinking, so he explained, "Brother Bing, according to my status, I really don't have the right to contact a big shot like Wei Tongtian, let alone get information about them. But it happens that my father-in-law and I are both in charge of Jiang City, which is relatively useful to them. Wei Tongtian secretly colluded with my father-in-law and gave him a lot of gold bars. He asked my father-in-law to invite you to a birthday party at home three days later. At the party, he would get you drunk and then install a time bomb in your car. When you are on your way home, he will blow you up with the time bomb. "
A cold light flashed in Xiao Bing's eyes. He whistled and said, "What a vicious plan."
Zhong Jialiang continued, "The Wei Family has already sent a group of masters. They are all the most elite masters of the Wei Family. It is said that they are led by the top master of the Wei Family, Wei Changzhi. If the bomb doesn't kill you, it will definitely injure you. These people have already been lying in ambush on your way home, where the bomb will detonate. If you are not dead, they will swarm up and kill you."
Xiao Bing nodded and said, "This is really linked. The Wei Family's plan is really profound. But how did you know about this? Why did you tell me? "
Zhong Jialiang said, "Logically speaking, even my father-in-law wouldn't tell me about such a big thing. However, the entire Jiang City is under your control. I believe that the Wei Family has your intelligence network all over Jiang City. So even if they really kill you, it won't be easy for them to escape from Jiang City. The land route will be blocked by you, and the same goes for the water route. However, they thought that I've been running the dock for so many years, and I've also done the smuggling business in my early years. I've also helped people smuggle across the border, so I'm experienced in this aspect. That's why they told me about this plan. They're going to find a way to send them out of Jiang City by boat."
"I see." Xiao Bing sighed with emotion. "It seems that the Wei Family also has a master. Otherwise, they wouldn't know this seemingly impeccable secret. But I'm curious. Your father-in-law should know that I'm not easy to offend. Why did he agree to cooperate with the Wei Family to harm me? And why did you betray your father-in-law? I'm afraid it won't do you any good, will it? "
Zhong Jialiang said, "My father-in-law wants money. I don't know how much he has embezzled these years. Now the country's new leaders have come to power, and they are cracking down on corruption. My father-in-law knows that he won't be free for long, so he wants to make a few big deals, and then find a way to go abroad in two years. Then he will never come back. And this time, the Wei Family happened to offer a big price. As for my betrayal of my father-in-law … "
A bone-deep hatred flashed in Zhong Jialiang's eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "That old bastard broke us up and forced me to marry his daughter. He made it so that I can't be with the person I truly love. More importantly, he asked me to marry his daughter, but he just doesn't like me. It's just because of what his daughter likes, so he satisfied his daughter. All these years, although I've relied on his power to get where I am today, I haven't been living well at all. I've been living like a dog in front of the father and daughter! "
Xiao Bing could see the deep resentment in Zhong Jialiang's eyes. He could not help but sigh and said, "That's why it is said that a melon that is forced is not sweet. What's more, you are not the melon that they want. So even if you are sweet, you are bitter and ugly in the eyes of others. Don't worry. This time, those people from the Wei Family will not have a good ending. What's more, it's time for your father-in-law to fall. "
Zhong Jialiang breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he betrayed his father-in-law. If his father-in-law did not fall, he was afraid that he would be in a panic all day long.
Xiao Bing continued, "Although you told me this information with a purpose, you have made a contribution after all. After the matter with the Wei Family is settled, you can continue to do your business. You don't need to worry about the underground forces. I will support you."
Zhong Jialiang bowed to Xiao Bing and said, "Thank you, Brother Bing."
"Well, go back. I didn't hear anything just now, and you didn't tell me anything."
Zhong Jialiang agreed and left quickly.
After Zhong Jialiang left, Xiao Bing first called Poisonous Fox and made an appointment to meet in Xiao Mansion. Then he took a taxi and went back to Xiao Mansion. He talked with Poisonous Fox in the room for the whole morning and did not come out until lunch time.
When he came out of the room, Xiao Bing looked in high spirits, while Poisonous Fox was as gloomy as ever. There was no change in him.
After lunch, Xiao Bing left Xiao Mansion and returned to the hospital. In the afternoon, he accompanied Yezi and in the evening, he continued to keep watch in the mourning hall. Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
It was already the third night of the last night. It was still early and it was just past eight o 'clock in the evening. Xiao Bing sat with the nine men of sacrifice. Xiao Bing listened to the stories of the nine men before they were taken to prison. After a few days of getting along with him, the nine men were in awe of Xiao Bing from the bottom of their hearts. They even talked about things that they were unwilling to mention in the past to Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing occasionally interjected and expressed his own thoughts. While these people were talking, suddenly a car drove to the outside of the mourning hall.
No. 1 stood up and said, "It's so late. Why is there someone here?"
Outside the mourning hall, two masters of Xiao Mansion who were responsible for protecting Yezi came down first. Then Yezi came out of the car. Xiao Bing was shocked when he saw Yezi. He hurried out and said with some blame, "Yezi, what are you doing here so late at night?"
The injury on Yezi's shoulder had not yet recovered. She did not dare to move her entire arm. It was reasonable to say that she could not leave the hospital at will, in case of wind or infection. She insisted on attending the funeral on the third tomorrow. Xiao Bing did not stop her because he did not want her to have any regrets. But he did not expect that she would come the night before the funeral.
Not only Xiao Bing was surprised, but the other nine men were also surprised. No. 1 said respectfully, "Miss Ye, you are injured. You'd better go back early."
Ye Xiaoxi smiled sweetly and said, "I will stay with you tonight."
The nine men of sacrifice were all in disbelief. Even Xiao Bing was stunned for a moment. Seeing Ye Xiaoxi walking toward the mourning hall, the nine men of sacrifice knelt on one knee together and said loudly, "Miss Ye, please go back!"
Ye Xiaoxi stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at the nine of them. Number One said solemnly, "Miss Ye, we heard from the master that you're going to attend the funeral tomorrow. Number Three's spirit in heaven must be extremely grateful. You don't have to stay here to guard the coffin at night. This is not a place you should be. You're unwell and you're a noble lady …"
Ye Xiaoxi said firmly, "You don't have to persuade me. I'm not a noble. I know you treat Brother Bing as your master and me as your hostess. You respect me and are even willing to give up your lives for me. But I'm human, and so are you. In my eyes, there is no difference between you and me. "
"You all think that I'm the daughter of a wealthy family, that I'm the daughter of a wealthy family, but in my eyes, my status isn't any higher than yours. On the contrary, Number Three saved me, using his life in exchange for mine. This is what I owe him, and I will never be able to repay him in this lifetime. "
No. 1 said firmly, "No matter which one of us died for you and our master, it is what we should do. This is what we owe our master. You don't owe us anything, and you will repay him."
"That is you, not Number Three!" Ye Xiaoxi's tone suddenly became stern. Usually, Ye Xiaoxi was always kind to people and always looked sweet or playful. But at this moment, she suddenly revealed a kind of seriousness and domineeringness, which made the nine men of sacrifice palpitate. Ye Xiaoxi's eyes were red.
Ye Xiaoxi's eyes were red. She said loudly, "It's Number Three who died. None of you have the right to say whether his death was worth it or not. None of you have the right to say whether I should keep watch for Number Three. He was not only Brother Bing's brother, but also a human being. As long as he is a human being, he has the right to live according to his wishes … Not to mention you, even Xiao Bing doesn't have the right to say that Number Three's death was worth it.
"He died to save me, so I must feel guilty and grateful. That's all!"
The ten of them were dumbfounded. Then, their eyes turned red. Then, they kowtowed heavily on the ground. With such a master and such a sister-in-law, even if they were to go through water and tread on fire, what more could they ask for?
Xiao Bing sighed and said, "Since Yezi said so, I have no right to stop her. Let her stay with us tonight. Otherwise, I am afraid that she will not be able to rest in peace for the rest of her life."
Ye Xiaoxi walked in and knelt in front of the body. She said with tears in her eyes, "Number Three, I owe you this kneel!"
