1202: Chapter 1203: You Assassinate, I Protect!

Huang An naturally wouldn’t take Huang Sihai’s warning to heart.

A bastard and a bitch, what kind of waves could they possibly stir?

With a bounty of this scale, not to mention that bastard, even Huang Sihai is certainly doomed.

After Jiang Wudao posted the bounty information on the Jianghu forum, he couldn’t wait to find Jiang Meng.

He wanted to show Jiang Meng just how fearsome a person her husband, Xiao Chen, had offended.

This might be the best opportunity for Jiang Meng to divorce Xiao Chen.

As long as Jiang Meng divorces Xiao Chen, he would have a way to take over Xinmeng Group.

Jiang Wudao was a very ambitious man; he wouldn’t be content being a dog for the Huang Family his whole life.

He wanted to become the master of this world.

“What are you doing here again?”

Seeing Jiang Wudao, Jiang Meng’s mood soured immediately.

This was her own uncle, after all, yet he spared no effort in bullying her and her mother, and even wanted to kill her grandfather.

“Heh, I’m your uncle, can’t I come to see my niece?

Must you treat me like an enemy?”

Jiang Wudao said with a smile.

Stop being hypocritical, just spit it out if you have something to say.

Jiang Wudao laughed and said, “Since that’s the case, then let me show you something!”

He knew that Jiang Meng definitely wouldn’t pay attention to the Jianghu forum, so he opened his phone and then pulled up the forum.

Xiao Chen’s bounty was still there, already having received countless likes.

“See that?

A 10 billion bounty!

Someone wants your husband Xiao Chen dead!”

Jiang Wudao said with a laugh.

What!

Jiang Meng was completely stunned; someone was actually willing to spend 10 billion to kill her husband!

“Don’t be so surprised.

Your husband Xiao Chen isn’t much of a big shot, he’s just that slut Huang Ningxia’s son.

Therefore, the Huang Family does not want him to live.”

Jiang Wudao said with a smile: “Now you understand, right?

You’ve offended someone extremely dreadful.

Hurry up and divorce Xiao Chen.

Otherwise, not only will he die, but he will definitely drag you down with him.”

Jiang Meng remained silent, thoroughly shocked.

Eventually, she calmed down.

Looking at Jiang Wudao, she said, “A 10 billion bounty on my husband, huh?

Heh, let’s try it, and see who has more money.”

“What are you going to do?”

Jiang Wudao was dumbfounded.

He thought Jiang Meng would be in utter disarray, that she would want to cut ties with Xiao Chen.

But he was wrong.

He didn’t understand the feelings Jiang Meng had for Xiao Chen at all.

“Ren Jing, are you familiar with this forum?”

Jiang Meng called over Ren Jing and asked.

“I’m familiar.”

Ren Jing nodded.

“Good.

Now, issue a bounty: whoever can protect my husband and ensure he doesn’t die, I’ll give them 20 billion!”

Ren Jing clenched her teeth and said.

For Xinmeng Group, which had developed to this point, 20 billion was nothing.

“Yes!”

Ren Jing nodded and immediately started posting the bounty.

And the funds were also entrusted to Jianghu Teahouse.

“You’re crazy, you’re really crazy, you’re giving so much to a mere taxi driver.

Would your mother agree?

Would the people of Xinmeng Group agree?”

Jiang Wudao was close to exploding with anger.

Jiang Meng’s method was crazy, but very effective.

To kill Xiao Chen would bring in 10 billion, but to protect Xiao Chen one could get 20 billion.

Anyone could see which was more worthwhile.

So, suddenly many of those who had taken on the assassination task switched to taking on the protection contract.

Not just Jiang Wudao was infuriated, but Huang An was livid as well.

A plan that had been going so smoothly had somehow turned out like this; it was just too bizarre.

“Raise the stakes, increase it to 30 billion!”

Huang An issued the command from his residence.

As a result, he found that as long as he raised the bounty, the other party would surely increase theirs too, and by a hundred billion each time.

When Huang An raised the bounty to a hundred billion that year, the other party also increased it to a hundred and ten billion.

Huang An nearly cried.

A hundred billion was astronomical even for Zhou Group – after all, that much cash flow couldn’t be gathered quickly.

“Older An, we can’t raise it anymore.”

Zhou Shangren personally intervened to stop it.

A hundred billion was enough, there would certainly be those willing to take it.

Only then did Huang An give up in frustration.

Thus, the bounty on Xiao Chen’s head reached a record-breaking hundred billion.

No one could have anticipated this.

But many people sensed subtle messages from this.

That Xiao Chen was no simple character.

Those wanting to kill him and those wanting to protect him were both not to be trifled with.

So, quite a few gave up.

Money is important, but without life, it’s worthless.

Of course, there were still those with guts, just a lot fewer.

Almost ninety-nine percent fewer.

Nonetheless, nearly thousands of people still gathered in Xiongcheng City, some to protect Xiao Chen.

Others came to assassinate Xiao Chen.

“Jiang Meng, you’re ruthless, but it’s futile.

I guarantee Xiao Chen won’t see tomorrow’s sun.”

Jiang Wudao was shocked by Jiang Meng’s madness.

He finally understood something: it was simply impossible to separate Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen through divorce.

Instead of wasting time, he might as well wait for Xiao Chen to be taken out.

“Care to bet?”

Jiang Meng looked at Jiang Wudao and spoke coldly.

“Heh, bet?

If Xiao Chen isn’t dead by tomorrow, I’ll roll back to prison myself.”

Jiang Wudao sneered with confidence.

He firmly believed Xiao Chen would die.

After all, it’s easier to assassinate someone than to protect them.

“Fine, you said it.”

Jiang Meng spoke, “Ren Jing, see our guest out.”

After sending Jiang Wudao away, Jiang Meng hurriedly returned to the neighborhood to find Xiao Chen and relayed the situation.

“So, the bounty to protect me came from you, my wife?”

Xiao Chen bitterly smiled and said, “Wife, I really appreciate you doing this for me, but it’s unnecessary.

No one can kill me.”

“Husband, don’t be careless.”

Jiang Meng advised.

“I know, but wife, rest assured.

Since those people came to Xiongcheng City, I’ve known.

I’ve monitored the appearance, residence, and identity of each one through Sky Net.”

Xiao Chen held Jiang Meng’s hand, “Plus, if there’s any danger, I’ll run.

I won’t just wait for death.”

Of course, those were just words to comfort Jiang Meng.

How could he possibly run?

His strongest defense was not someone else, but himself.

Jiang Meng felt somewhat relieved.

That evening, Xiao Chen and Jiang Meng sat there having dinner, with Jiang Meng wearing a worried expression, while Xiao Chen acted as though nothing concerned him.

At Zhou Family’s estate in Xiongcheng City.

Huang An, Jiang Wudao, and others were all gathered there.

Huang An was the overall commander for this operation.

Jiang Wudao was the vanguard.

“Older An, although Jiang Meng has created trouble and reduced our numbers, there are still over twelve hundred people who have taken our offer, which could even reach up to eighteen hundred eventually.”

Jiang Wudao spoke coldly, “The temptation of a hundred billion is really great.

Xiao Chen can’t escape this time.”

“Of course.

Assassinating someone is much easier than protecting someone.

To protect a person, at least twice the number of people is needed.

But the other side only has about fifteen hundred people, still fewer than us, so the assassination is bound to succeed.

It’s an absolute guarantee.”

Huang An was extremely confident.
