That old woman up north hasn't sent a single text message in six months.

They had just taken over as the leader of Lungmen when they issued a statement condemning it.

Looking back now, the real enemy of the Reunion Movement is not in Lungmen, nor in Ursus, but in the Reunion Movement's headquarters.

It was within the leadership of the Reunion Movement, headed by Talulah.

At the same time.

Jiu gently knocked on the door of Luo Chen's study, then pushed it open and entered, holding her phone in her hand, her face showing a hint of worry that she could not hide.

She walked to Luo Chen's desk, put down her phone, and looked at Luo Chen with a hint of helplessness in her voice.

"Luo Chen, the team we contacted yesterday was supposed to come here for training today, but they just called to say they have an emergency and can't make it."

Jiu frowned and spoke slightly quickly.

Luo Chen nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"It's normal that they didn't come to our side after being misled by the leaders of the Reunion Movement. If I were in their shoes, I wouldn't come either."

Hearing Luo Chen speak up for someone else in such a calm and unhurried tone...

Nine parted her red lips almost without hesitation:

"Listen to what you're saying!"

"We just integrated more than 500 people and are gradually expanding the team. Now this has suddenly disrupted everything, and all our previous meetings and promotional efforts have been for nothing."

"Don't worry, they'll regret it, because I don't like people who don't keep their promises."

Seeing Luo Chen smile, Jiu's previously anxious heart calmed down.

She rushed to find Luo Chen, wanting to see this very scene.

Whenever Luo Chen grins, it means someone is about to suffer.

When others suffer misfortune, it means that their current problems are no longer problems.

Strangeness!

Why does this statement make them sound like bad guys?

Why am I hoping Luo Chen will torment others?

I've been spending too much time with Luo Chen, will I be corrupted too?

Nine felt lost.

While Jiu lowered her head to contemplate life, Luo Chen was not confused.

What should you do if you encounter a situation where the name doesn't match the reality?

One is to legitimize, the other is to solidify the facts.

All I need to do is hold the power of Lungmen's chief and control all of Lungmen's Reunion Movement.

So no matter what the old woman in the north says, he is still the Lungmen Chief of the Reunion Movement.

If Luo Chen wasn't mistaken, there was someone else facing the same difficulties as him.

Luo Chen picked up the phone and skillfully dialed a number.

Almost the instant the call was dialed, a clear and pleasant voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hey? Brother Chen!" The voice was as melodious as a mountain stream and as crisp and cool as autumn wind sweeping through fallen leaves.

The sudden female voice made Jiu, who had been lost in thought and doubting her conscience, abruptly raise her head, her eyes filled with surprise and curiosity.

Jiu's gaze quickly shifted from Luo Chen's face to the phone, and a hint of doubt arose in her heart.

Although Luo Chen has many friends, he also occasionally assigns tasks to his "subordinates" in the Lungmen Guard Department.

But this was the first time she had ever heard a female friend call him "Brother Chen" so intimately.

"Xia! It's been several days since we last talked. I wanted to ask how you've been."

Luo Chen didn't seem to notice Jiu's unusual behavior.

He continued his conversation with Lin Yuxia on the other end of the phone.

Jiu quietly pricked up her ears and moved closer to Luo Chen, trying to glean some clues from their conversation.

"What's wrong? You sound unhappy?"

"Yes, Brother Chen, I feel like I... need your guidance."

Chapter 131 It doesn't matter, Brother Chen will take care of it.

Guide?

Is this guidance legitimate?

Nine's pupils widened instantly, and he couldn't help but take another step forward.

That small step led to her committing a foul.

Charging someone with the ball is shameful both on and off the field.

Not to mention that this is a conversation between the two leaders of the two major criminal gangs in Lungmen, and such rule violations naturally cannot continue.

Luo Chen felt a soft touch on his shoulder and glanced at Jiu with displeasure:

Why did you molest me?

"I molested you?"

Luo Chen looked away from his phone and said:

"Xia, there are many things that can't be explained over the phone, and walls can hear us. We need to meet in person. Give me your address, and I'll come to you."

Okay, see you later.

Listening to Luo Chen's conversation with the woman on the phone.

Jiu felt that her blood pressure was high.

What does "walls have ears" mean?

Aren't we one big family?

How did answering a phone call turn me into someone's eavesdropper?

However, Luo Chen didn't explain to her. He picked up his coat from the hanger and went to find the woman on the phone.

"Luo Chen!"

As Luo Chen passed by her, Jiu suddenly grabbed his arm.

Luo Chen turned around.

Jiu stared wide-eyed, veins bulging on his forehead.

Who is this person?

"My apprentice."

"Your apprentice? Is your apprentice even respectable?"

"Nine, you've been meddling a bit too much lately."

Luo Chen looked at Jiu, then suddenly grinned. "According to the TV dramas Ghost Sis watches, you wouldn't happen to have a crush on me, would you?"

Upon hearing this teasing remark, the veins on Jiu's forehead immediately bulged into a # shape.

Clenching his fist, he was about to give Luo Chen a good beating for his arrogant attitude.

But Luo Chen spoke up again at this moment:

"Some people resort to violence when they want to avoid their true feelings. You really do have a crush on me, don't you?"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, Jiu's clenched fist was caught in a dilemma: whether to strike or let go.

The attack confirmed Luo Chen's words.

Given Luo Chen's personality and temperament, he would definitely spread this rumor throughout the entire Reunion Movement within a day.

Instead of hitting it.

Luo Chen's attitude is making my blood pressure so high.

Finally, the veins on Jiu's forehead bulged and subsided twice.

She chose to use passive-aggressive tactics.

"Hmph! I apologize for interrupting your conversation with your little apprentice. I'm leaving, alright?"

With a bang, Jiu slammed the door shut and left first, leaving Bi Luo Chen behind.

Evening.

A nightclub on a main commercial street in the Lower City.

Inside the nightclub, the lighting was dim and hazy, and the air was filled with the mingled scents of alcohol and perfume.

In the dance floor, the lights flickered to the rhythm of the music, and people danced or embraced, releasing their pent-up emotions.

However, amidst this joyful atmosphere, one corner felt unusually tense.

The two groups stood on opposite sides, their eyes sharp as ice blades, staring at each other.

A tense atmosphere hung in the air, as if an unpredictable conflict could erupt at any moment.

In this tense situation, a table remained as quiet as an isolated island.

At the table, a burly, resolute-looking young man from Ursus was sitting with his legs crossed, talking to Lin Yuxia, who was sitting opposite him.

His eyes revealed a hint of dissatisfaction and mockery, and his tone carried a touch of provocation.

"Young Miss, these rules you've set are really giving me a headache."

He shook his head as he spoke, as if he couldn't understand Lin Yuxia's decision:

"If you don't let us do prostitution, then the brothers will starve. In this world, how can we support this whole family without some quick way to make money?"

Lin Yuxia's attention wasn't entirely focused on the other person's provocative words; she was more concerned about how the other person addressed her.

She frowned slightly, her tone revealing an undeniable authority, and coldly corrected the other person:

"Jonathan, what did you call me?"

The young man from Ursus seemed startled by Lin Yuxia's sudden stern tone; he paused for a moment.

But he quickly regained his previous expression.

Now that the Rat King is old, he stays at home all day and never shows his face.

The Rat King's daughter is a rebellious young lady.

In this situation, it's hard to say who will have the final say in the future of the Lower City.

A few days ago, he swore allegiance to an elder who was still under the Rat King's command.

The other party said that the Rat King is now isolating himself at home every day, and probably has no interest in getting involved in the affairs of the underworld.

In other words, they can now take advantage of this window of opportunity to absorb other gangs.

Then, on the day the Rat King dies of old age, this naive and innocent second-generation heir will be sidelined.

So the Lower City would actually belong to them.

"Young Miss! You're not really thinking of starting some new alliance, are you?"

"Everyone plays with you only because of the Rat King."

"If you've had your fun, come back. You're still our young lady, aren't you?"

Lin Yuxia's brows were furrowed, and her voice was unusually cold:

"So, you're saying you're also leaving my alliance?"
