"You have three minutes to make the call."

Jiang Cheng spoke coldly, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

He came to see Li Yuncong to find out who his powerful backer was.

Lin Wenxuan or Lin Ziyuan?

Seeing this, Li Yuncong, who had been untied, did not dare to delay and shakily dialed a phone number.

Soon, a drunken voice rang out, "Hiccup~ Yun Cong, wh... what's wrong?"

"Godfather, please save me! Someone is trying to cripple me!"

Li Yuncong held the phone in both hands, his body trembling like a leaf, and hurriedly spoke.

"How dare you! Who would dare touch my son, Jin Buhuan?!"

A voice filled with dissatisfaction and anger rang out, interspersed with melodious singing.

For a moment, everyone in the private room looked at each other in bewilderment.

Immediately afterwards, Jin Buhuan's voice, strained by fat compressing her vocal cords, rang out again.

"Don't worry, Yun Cong. Your godfather is backed by Young Master Wenxuan, the heir to the Capital Lin Family!"

"Let that person answer the phone."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuncong breathed a sigh of relief, and his momentum returned.

But remembering the two slaps he had just received, he didn't dare to provoke her and handed his phone to Jiang Cheng.

"Hehe~ Your godfather cares about you quite a bit; he even answers your calls while he's exercising."

Jiang Cheng glanced at it with a mocking expression.

While holding Li Yuncong's phone, he made a call using his own phone.

A few seconds later, a young man's hearty laughter rang out.

"Brother Jiang, what brings you here to call me?"

Lin Wenxuan's tone was full of surprise.

"What the hell, Brother Jiang? I'm your Grandpa Jin!"

Across two screens, Jin Buhuan cursed angrily.

"Stop trying to get close to me. If you know what's good for you, release Yun Cong and then obediently kowtow a few times."

After finishing speaking in one breath, Jin Buhuan heard a delicate, complaining voice beside her and immediately hung up the phone.

Finally, only one sentence was heard intermittently.

"Sweetie, today I'll show you what it means to still be as sharp as ever!"

Li Yuncong's lips twitched, and he immediately winced in pain.

At this moment, Lin Wenxuan also realized what was happening.

He said in a deep voice, "Who are you? How come you have Brother Jiang's phone?"

"Brother Lin, it's like this..."

Jiang Cheng began to explain calmly.

After a moment of silence, Lin Wenxuan smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, rest assured, I will give you an explanation for this matter."

"It's alright, we're friends, Brother Lin, you're being too polite."

Since Lin Wenxuan had shown goodwill and made his stance clear, Jiang Cheng was happy to accept it.

To be honest, he had a good impression of Lin Wenxuan and didn't harbor any deep hatred towards him.

I'd still be happy to make a friend!

"Haha~ Brother Jiang is right."

Lin Wenxuan said with a smile, "Next time we come to Capital, we must get together properly."

We chatted briefly for a few minutes before ending the call.

Jiang Cheng glanced at Li Yuncong, who was staring wide-eyed and frozen in place, and remained indifferent.

That idiot is such a waste of his time!

He had assumed this guy's backer was the Lin Family, but it turned out he was the backer's backer.

If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered coming.

At this moment, Li Yuncong stared at Jiang Cheng in disbelief, his eyes filled with fear.

Brother Lin, Capital.

These two words were like sharp needles piercing his heart, giving rise to a guess he didn't want to admit.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

They must share the same surname; it's just a coincidence.

Li Yuncong silently comforted himself, but his tightly clenched hands still revealed the tension and restlessness in his heart.

Just then, a phone rang urgently.

As soon as Jiang Cheng answered the call, Jin Buhuan's pleading voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

Their previous arrogance was completely gone, replaced by intense panic and fear.

"Young Master Jiang, I'm nothing but a fart. Please, have mercy on me!"

"That little beast from the Li Family deserved what he got for offending you."

After stammering through his long speech, Jin Buhuan kowtowed several more times.

It's over!

Li Yuncong collapsed to the ground like a wilted eggplant.

Zhao Hu, standing to the side, belatedly realized what was happening.

Recalling the phone call from earlier, she looked at Jiang Cheng with even greater respect, even a hint of fear.

He never expected that Jiang Cheng could actually become sworn brothers with the young master of the Capital Lin Family.

We must cling to this powerful figure tightly!

Jiang Cheng ignored the shock of the crowd.

She merely glanced coldly at Li Yuncong before hanging up the phone.

"What are you waiting for? Make your move!"

Zhao Hu cautiously began, "Young Master Jiang, is it your life or...?"

"A person should be honest. So, according to your previous conditions, we'll break three of your legs."

After saying that, Jiang Cheng turned and left.

Zhao Hu winked at Xiong Er and jogged after Jiang Cheng.

A moment later, a heart-wrenching wail came from the private room and lingered for a long time.

Outside the hotel, Zhao Hu respectfully took out the card.

"Young Master Jiang, there are 20 million here. It was given to me by that kid."

"You can keep it yourself."

Jiang Cheng glanced at it casually and then looked away.

"I've always been very generous to my own people."

"But... I don't like my subordinates playing tricks on me, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hu froze, feeling as if he were about to stop breathing.

He quickly replied, "I understand, I understand."

Only after Jiang Cheng's car disappeared from sight did she nervously wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.

Meanwhile, at the Capital Lin Family.

Lin Wenxuan sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, swirling the wine glass in his hand.

His gaze fell heavily on the Stubbly Man standing before him, and he gave a curt order.

"The Li Family Jinling, you know what to do, right?"

"Yes, young master."

The Stubbly Man nodded.

"And that Jin Buhuan, the Lin Family can help him rise to power, but they can also bring him down."

Lin Wenxuan took a small sip of red wine and slowly began to speak.

"Let's get this done together."

Upon receiving the order, the Stubbly Man dared not delay and quickly left the room.

Lin Wenxuan calmly looked out the window, elegantly raised his wine glass, and slowly smiled.

A few minutes later, the Stubbly Man returned.

His face still showed shock, and he swallowed hard.

"Young Master, the Li Family is gone."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wenxuan looked slightly surprised, as if he had thought of something.

He asked calmly, "Was it made by the Qin Family?"

The Stubbly Man shook his head. "No."

If it's not the Qin Family, then who else could it be?

There are very few people in the entire Dragon Country who have the ability to handle all this so quickly.

Lin Wenxuan frowned.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Jiang Cheng and show his friendly attitude.

Someone actually acted faster than him?

Who is it?

"The official Ancient Martial Artist organization, Qing Long."

The Stubbly Man lowered his head and uttered a sentence.

Time seemed to have been paused, and even Lin Wenxuan's face was full of surprise and astonishment.

After a long silence, he slowly said, "You can go out now."

"Yes."

Only after the Stubbly Man left did Lin Wenxuan gradually regain his composure.

He chuckled softly, his eyes filled with excitement.

It could get a half-step Gang Jin figure from Ancient Martial Artist organization to take action.

Jiang Cheng, I'm becoming more and more interested in you!
