Chapter 769 Breakthrough Point
Wu Hongwei quickly shook his head.
“Then my son…”
“If children commit mistakes, it is the fault of their parents. Mr Wu, bring your son back and teach
him properly. If you don’t watch him carefully, someone else will.” Song Xiaoyu spoke like he was
teaching his grandson a lesson. “If you don’t let him experience some pain in life, he will never
learn.”
He then waved his hands. Wu Hongwei clasped his hands together politely and left to prepare all
the things that Song Xiaoyu asked for.
After Wu Hongwei left, Song Xiaoyu immediately put the book in his hand down and walked briskly
to the garden at the back.
Jiang Ning was seated in front of the pond with a fishing rod in his hand. He looked at all the fish
swimming around in the pond, but not a single one came to bite his empty hook.
“Mr Jiang,” Song Xiaoyu smiled as he took some fish bait and threw it towards the section of the
pond where Jiang Ning sat. “Without any bait, these fish won’t come over.”
The fish bait hit the water with a splash and all the fish swam over from all parts of the pond. They
gathered to fight for the bait and made a lot of water splash out of the pond.
Jiang Ning looked up at him.
“Looks like you’ve gotten yourself some fish bait.”
“There’s a breakthrough point,” replied Song Xiaoyu. “The Wu family has come knocking on my
door.”
“Going by what you’ve said before, we must go through Linglong Group to find the person hiding
behind all of this. Everything in the north has some connection to Linglong Group.”
“As long as we tip the balance within Linglong Group, then anyone who is affected won’t be able to
hide himself anymore.”
Jiang Ning nodded. “I didn’t expect you to be so smart. You’re almost as good as Yuming.”
“Thank you for the compliment,” Song Xiaoyu clasped his hands together politely. “I will see to this
matter personally and I will sort out the entire network within Linglong Group as soon as possible.”
“Good.” Jiang Ning got up. “I came today to talk to you about something else.”
“There’s a problem with the Chang family.”
Jiang Ning’s expression was rather stern and Song Xiaoyu immediately understood how important
this matter was.
“The Chang family?” he frowned slightly.
“The first tier family? The head of the family is Chang Zaiyuan?”
“What, is there another Chang family in the north?”
Jiang Ning got Brother Gou to follow his attacker that night, and that man found his way back to the
Chang house. Judging from the reaction of the family, this man was highly ranked in the family.
Someone so important had to be fairly influential in the north. But it seemed like even Jiang Ning
didn’t have any information on him.
“The Chang family isn’t really very famous in the north and they keep a low profile. But I’ve heard
that they are very capable.”noveldrama
Song Xiaoyu had investigated all the powerful families of the north, especially some of the first tier
families.
But in the past, he didn’t have access to much information and wasn’t able to find out a lot. But he
did have some basic information on hand.
“The head of the Chang family, Chang Zaiyuan, has two more younger brothers. Number 2, Chang
Zaifeng, has been missing for years and apparently nobody has seen him for more than ten years
now.
Number 3, Chang Zaishan, is obsessed with martial arts…”
Before he could finish his own sentence, his expression changed as he looked in shock and
disbelief at Jiang Ning.
Song Xiaoyu had just received a piece of news that was highly classified. Chang Zaishan had died.
This news was not made public, so after Song Xiaoyu heard about it, he didn’t think too much about
it. But after hearing Jiang Ning mention the Chang family, his heart nearly stopped.
“Mr Jiang, this Chang Zaishan…”
“I killed him,” Jiang Ning didn’t bother hiding this fact at all. “Of course, it’s because he tried to kill
me first but he wasn’t powerful enough to do so.”
Song Xiaoyu gulped.
That man was obsessed with martial arts and had reached an incredibly high level of skill. Among
all the known highly skilled fighters, he was definitely one of the top ten.
But Jiang Ning said he wasn’t powerful enough?
Sometimes Jiang Ning said the scariest shit.
Song Xiaoyu paled a little. It wasn’t because he was scared, but because he was so stunned.
He hadn’t thought much about it when he learnt that Chang Zaishan had died. But the moment he
found out that Chang Zaishan had been killed by Jiang Ning, he suddenly felt numb all over.
He was really glad that he had made the right choice. Otherwise the Song family would be wiped
out by now.
“Mr Jiang, you want me to check on this Chang family?” Song Xiaoyu didn’t ask further. He knew
what questions he should ask and what was just for him to hear.
Not just the Chang family. I want to know
everything about all the first tier families in the north. I’ll give you one week to do this. Is that enough
time?”
