CHAPTER 479: CHAPTER 479 INSIST ON BELIEVING
"Oh, what tasks? Just give me the order, Old Master."
"That would be drinking and chatting, and besides, it’s been so many years since I last saw Li Fu. Tonight, I will have a good time catching up with him."
"Haha, Old Master, I thought you were going to say something else. Alright, no problem, I will definitely keep you company all the way tonight. By the way, if there’s something to do tomorrow, we probably can’t drink too much tonight, can we?"
"Grandpa, your health isn’t that good now, so I suggest you’d better not drink. We could just drink tea instead of alcohol while chatting here, isn’t that also quite nice?"
"No, no, no, when old friends meet, we must drink to our heart’s content. If we only drink tea, how can we express this sense of excitement? So, tonight, we must drink, and we can’t stop until we’re thoroughly merry."
"Grandpa, what about tomorrow’s business? Once Yang Da arrives, he will definitely try to trouble me as soon as possible. If we all get drunk, what should we do then?"
"Don’t worry, it’s the same. He isn’t foolish. After he arrives in Sea City tomorrow, he will definitely try to probe our strength, so he is unlikely to act rashly."
"Are you saying he won’t act so quickly?"
"I believe Yang Da should know that I have come to Sea City. After my arrival here, whether I will reveal my secret weapon or not, he needs to probe into that. Don’t forget, aside from his Scorpion Gang, my U12 is also unmatched in this world."
"Alright, since the elder has spoken so, then I think there should be no problem. Ye Chen, what about you? Do you want to join us?"
"Hehe, I’ll pass. I just fought them today, so my body feels a bit weak now. I’m thinking of taking a good rest."
"Fine, Brother Ye Chen, if you need to rest, I can arrange a room for you next door, and you can stay here tonight. We can keep an eye on these people’s movements anytime."
"But, Old Master, there’s something I’m not sure if I should mention?"
When Ye Chen got to this point, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and so he raised his head and spoke.
"Oh? What is it? Just say it."
"Our ultimate goal is to get that Jade Ring, and if we get it, can we not turn a big issue into a small one, and a small issue into nothing?"
"What do you mean? Are you saying that if they hand over the Jade Ring, this terrible fight won’t happen anymore?"
"Exactly, I think it could be as simple as that, and for such a simple matter, we don’t necessarily have to complicate it, do we?"
"No, you are wrong. Let me tell you, Ye Chen, it’s not just about the Jade Ring anymore. Although Yang Wenyu set his sights on something from our Guo Family, and when he grabbed the Jade Ring this time, indeed he didn’t expect who the real owner behind the Jade Ring was, but now that I have come to Sea City as well, we must resolve the grudges from the past 10 years."
"Grudges? What grudges?"
"That’s another matter, and it’s an issue between Yang Da and me; you don’t need to worry so much. But I’m very certain that he was the one who pulled some strings back then."
As Guo Tao mentioned this, those around quieted down, especially Guo Hongyu.
"Grandfather, haven’t I told you? We’ve already investigated it, and there were no clues found at all. Why are you so adamant that it’s related to them?"
"I tell you, there is an 80% chance that they did it. If it wasn’t them, then why would they have left Sea City so quickly after it happened? There must be a reason."
"Grandfather, even if he wanted to leave, there could be other personal reasons. Why do you necessarily have to link it to my father’s car accident?"
"Hongyu, I know what you’re thinking and the grandfather understands that you have a kind heart, but in this business world and in these times, if you’re too kind-hearted, you will suffer a great loss. Do you understand?"
"Grandfather, but if they haven’t done it, why should we force this blame onto them?"
"I tell you, to keep a secret, one must not do it themselves. I’ve contended with these people for so many years, so I understand his ways very well. Hence, I’m also very clear about the critical interests involved in this incident."
"Alright, Grandfather, since you’re so convinced after all these years, I guess what I say won’t change much. If you think so, then there’s nothing I can do to help."
"That’s enough, it’s an issue between him and me, so you don’t need to worry too much. Also, don’t underestimate your grandfather’s power. Although I’m old and can’t move around much anymore, don’t forget, Yang Da is about the same age as me."
Hearing this, Ye Chen gradually understood that this was probably just a clash between the older generation, but in the course of this clash, was there any harm to the innocent? And how many people would get involved in this? For him, that was a pressing concern.
"Since you haven’t seen each other for such a long time, there must be a lot to talk about. Brother Ye Chen and I don’t have much to say here; we’re just going to get in your way. How about this, Brother Ye Chen, the two of us can go to the next room and rest up well."
"Alright, no problem."
Ye Chen nodded lightly upon hearing this, as he could see that although he might be able to find out some things here, these matters might not have a direct connection to him.
But what about Guo Hongyu? It seemed like he really was as kind-hearted as Guo Tao said. If that was the case, could he learn what had actually happened between the two big families from Guo Hongyu’s mouth?
Even though Ye Chen was unclear about what he could do even if he knew about these affairs, he felt it was essential to understand them.
