Jiang Cheng frowned. After a moment, he muttered in a low voice: "Although I heard that Harris and the Purton Family have joined forces to deal with Barter and began to infiltrate France, I didn't expect it to have reached this level. Could it be that Barter just sat back and did nothing? This place isn't far from his mansion. "
His eyes swept across everyone's face. Jiang Cheng was extremely confused about this point.
"Manage?" Looking at Jiang Cheng, Zhuge Liuyun bitterly smiled and gently shook his head: "They are now shrinking their defensive line, basically only protecting the important industries and people. As for other places, how can they spare the energy? There's no hope to count on Pallard's side. Fortunately, they also shielded Huaxing Group from the wind and rain. Otherwise, I don't know what would happen to France's Huaxing Group. Maybe it would have already been destroyed by Harris' traitorous organization."
Jiang Cheng pursed his lips and frowned. After a moment, his eyes swept across everyone's face and asked: "What else do you know? About the three families? About the fight between us. "
"This, I don't know much." Zhuge Liuyun said with some embarrassment.
"Actually, most of what we know are just guesses. If Brother Cheng wants to know the inside story, you'll have to ask Barter. Now that our Rising Dragon Gang is on his side, I don't think he'll keep this information from us. After all, the Pallard Family and the other two Families are only in a state of war. They must've planted spies among each other," said Wang Jie.
"Yes, Cheng Ge, instead of listening to our speculations, it's better to go to the Pallard Family himself. Not to mention, not long ago, Barter sent a letter to the Lung Hing Society, asking Cheng Ge to immediately meet him once he returns. He has urgent matters to discuss with you."
Jiang Cheng heavily nodded. He originally planned to meet Barter, but he first returned to the Lung Hing Society to inquire about the situation because he wasn't sure of Barter's current whereabouts.
"Alright, I'll go meet Barter immediately. Otherwise, I won't be able to feel at ease. Where is he living now? Is it still the villa in the suburbs? "Jiang Cheng asked.
Zhuge Liuyun seemed to have been prepared. He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Cheng, saying, "It's not there anymore. The villa in the suburbs is not suitable for security. This is a letter sent by someone before. There's a detailed address on it."
After receiving the letter, Jiang Cheng carefully read it. After a while, he nodded and stood up, "I'm going to see Barter. It has been nearly half a month since Pelia was kidnapped. I'm also very worried about her situation. I can't stay here any longer."
After waving goodbye to everyone, Jiang Cheng walked out of the Lung Hing Jeet Kune Do Hall and went outside to find a brother from the Lung Hing Society. He got the car key from him and drove alone to Barter's current location.
Barter had now moved out of the villa in the suburbs of the 17th district and was currently living in the 3rd district of Paris. That was the residence of the truly rich. The security there was extremely tight. As long as it was handled well, it was indeed a very suitable hiding place. According to the letter, Alice and Chen Yiting were also living there.
After driving for half an hour, Jiang Cheng entered the 3rd district of Paris. As soon as he entered, he saw people monitoring the intersection. Although he didn't know if they were sent by Barter, it was enough to prove that the security here was tight. It could be called the tortoise shell of the rich.
After entering the 3rd district, he continued to drive forward according to the simple map drawn in the letter. The further he went, the more spacious and remote it became. Soon, he arrived at the location of a farm manor. At the gate of the farm manor, Jiang Cheng was stopped. After showing his identity, he was allowed to enter.
After driving into the farm manor, Jiang Cheng felt how huge it was. After driving for more than 3 minutes, he finally arrived at the main house in the center of the manor. Barter was leading a group of people to wait there. Impressively, Alice and Chen Yiting were among them.
As soon as Jiang Cheng got out of the car, Alice ran over and threw herself into his arms. This scene made Mino, who also wanted to run over, stop. Her face turned slightly ugly.
"Brother Jiang Cheng, you're finally here. Hee, hee hee ~ ~" Alice hugged Jiang Cheng's waist and rubbed her face on his chest. She looked like she was hugging a plush doll and didn't want to let go.
Of course, Jiang Cheng also missed Alice. These days, Alice's figure had wandered in his mind countless times. At this moment, with such a close contact, his heart suddenly trembled. He also wanted to hug her and do some happy reunion after a long time. But when he was about to act, he found a fiery gaze piercing towards him. He immediately looked up and smiled bitterly.
Mino's gaze towards him was burning with fire. There was even a trace of murderous intent in it. Her face was extremely ugly.
"Ahem …" Jiang Cheng coughed awkwardly. He almost forgot himself. He touched Alice's little head and said, "Alice, let go of me. I have important things to discuss this time."
Feeling Jiang Cheng's serious words, Alice reluctantly let go. She frowned slightly and seemed to be extremely unwilling.
Jiang Cheng smiled awkwardly. He walked to Mino and gave Mino a strong hug. He hugged her waist tightly in his arms. Their bodies were close together. He kissed her face several times and secretly made two movements of eating her tofu with his hands. Only then did Mino smile again.
Mino pretended to kiss Jiang Cheng while tilting her head to show off to Alice. It was as if she was saying, "See? This man is mine. Don't even think about snatching him from me!"
Alice was biting her lips. Her breathing became rapid. She stood in the same place and stomped her feet. She didn't know what to do. She looked so wronged that tears were about to fall down.
Seeing his daughter being bullied like this, Barter's face became ugly. He stepped forward and coughed heavily, interrupting the love between Jiang Cheng and Chen Yiting. He said in a low voice, "Jiang Cheng, you didn't come here to talk about love, did you?"
Jiang Cheng naturally heard Barter's dissatisfaction. He turned around and looked at Alice who was pouting angrily. She was so wronged that she was about to cry. Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly in his heart. It was better to have only one woman. If there were too many, it would be easy to get jealous. It was extremely difficult to resolve the conflict between them. If he had the energy to do so, he might as well think about other things.
"Ahem …" Jiang Cheng awkwardly coughed twice. He let go of Mino and looked at Barter. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "Of course not. But I don't think it's convenient to talk about it here."
Barter understood and nodded. He turned around and waved to an old housekeeper in his 60s. The housekeeper immediately came over. Barter whispered something in his ear. The housekeeper kept nodding and then brought Chen Yiting and Alice to a room in the distance.
Mino was an adult. She naturally knew that there were many things that weren't convenient for them to listen. So she obediently nodded and followed the old housekeeper.
Alice, on the other hand, was a bit troublesome. She stubbornly protested and seemed like she would not leave even if she had to die. This really made the old butler helpless. He didn't dare to use any forceful methods to take her away. Otherwise, she would cry and faint in front of him. This situation had happened several times in the past, and every time, it made Barter furious. After all, Alice was his sweetheart.
"Master …" The old housekeeper turned around and looked at Barter for help.
Barter was also helpless. He wasn't good at dealing with this kind of Alice. He would listen to her every time. But this time, it wasn't convenient for her to know what they were going to talk about. After thinking for a while, he lovingly squatted down and waved to Alice. "Alice, come here."
Alice's eyes lit up. She thought that her father had agreed like before. She trotted to Barter's side and smiled as she hugged him.
"Alice, be obedient. No one likes disobedient people." Barter gently caressed Alice's little face and said.
"Ah, wh, why!?" Alice's face was full of confusion.
Barter chuckled and whispered a few words in Alice's ear. He also pointed at Chen Yiting in the distance. Alice's pretty face became a little red. She secretly looked at Jiang Cheng and nodded. Then, she walked towards the old housekeeper. She seemed to agree to leave, but when she left, she still looked back reluctantly.
With a smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, Jiang Cheng quietly watched all this. With his extraordinary hearing, of course, he could clearly hear what Barter whispered to Alice. It was probably, "People always like girls who are understanding and obedient. No one will like a girl like you, except for Dad. You see, that woman is very obedient and so on."
After listening to these words, Alice also secretly looked at Jiang Cheng's reaction. Then, she nodded and walked over. She behaved like a cute and pitiful white rabbit.
Alice was born to be cute, and she was even better at acting cute. Anyone who came into contact with her couldn't help but want to protect and possess her. How could such a cute and holy girl fall into the hands of others?
When Alice and Chen Yiting both left and walked towards a house in the distance, Barter's face became serious. He looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "Come with me, I have something to ask of you." Then, he walked towards the manor.
Jiang Cheng knew that they had entered the main topic. He also nodded with a serious face and followed Barter inside.
