"Don't hit me! I was wrong! Brother Tian, stop hitting me!" Lei Qing shielded his head and fled in panic while everyone stared at me.
"Damn it, I only treated Miao Xiaoli like a younger sister, and you wanted to push her on me as a concubine? Is that how you treat your cousin?" I pointed furiously at Lei Qing.
"I never said that! It was the brothers under me spouting nonsense!" Lei Qing was scared witless, but he still steeled himself and came over.
"Don't say things like that again. Now tell me what's really going on." I was speechless with Lei Qing. He wasn't part of the Arcane Sect, but our relationship was pretty good, almost as close as Zhao He's and mine.
Miao Xiaoli saw me beating up her older cousin and flushed slightly. She said nothing, but inwardly she was quite convinced by me. She knew I had become a household name in the county's Arcane Sect circles, and even the head of the Li Family now had to guard the spirit tablet on my behalf.
"It's like this. A while back, didn't we help Wang Dong smuggle goods? Later, after the Wang Family collapsed, I borrowed your influence, and all the shares ended up in my hands. I made a huge sum of money. I've also made arrangements for the casino business and am preparing to take over the operation. Once I have a little more money, I'm planning to open hotels and nightclubs. But Brother Tian, you know my foundation is weak and I don't have much clout. I feel uncertain about doing all this. Later on, I'd like you to come and keep the place under control whenever you're free. You'll get a big share of the profits too." Lei Qing explained it
