At the same time, in Jiangdu City, deep inside a luxurious club.

The lights were dim and mysterious, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.

"Crack! Crack!"

The subtle sound of the lighter was particularly harsh in the silent space.

On the sofa, a handsome man sat upright. He was wearing a black coat with a high-end and shiny texture, and his deep eyes were palpitating.

Behind him, a row of black-clad thugs stood neatly. They were wearing neat suits, sunglasses, expressionless, and straight backs.

In front of the man, a middle-aged man was kneeling on the ground. His clothes were stained with blood, and there were traces of being beaten on his face.

He trembled and begged in a leaky voice: "Master An... Master An, please raise your hands and let me go."

"I was really careless for a moment and accidentally leaked the news of the operation."

"I didn't know that the Lin family would take the opportunity to attack us, Master An!"

The man's teeth were leaking, and his voice was a little slurred. His eyes were full of fear, as if Master An in front of him was a monster.

"Crack!"

An Mingjie continued to play with the lighter in his hand, looking at the man indifferently.

"Old Chen, you are also an old man of the An family. I want to believe you when something like this happens."

"Well, even if you accidentally leaked our information, we lost more than 20 brothers this time. How do we account for it?!"

"How do I explain to their families?!"

"If Li Cai hadn't discovered something wrong in time, maybe even I would have fallen into the trap of the Lin family!"

"Tell me, how do we account for this?!"

An Mingjie's voice was neither high nor low, but like a sharp sword, pressing step by step, piercing deep into Old Chen's heart.

Every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Old Chen's heart, making him unable to escape or resist.

A crisp "click" sounded, and a dagger flashing with cold light was thrown in front of Old Chen.

An Mingjie's eyes were as cold as ice, without the slightest warmth, and he stared at Old Chen quietly.

Old Chen stared at the dagger, took a deep breath, and after a long time, closed his eyes as if accepting his fate.

"Please, Master An, for the sake of my hard work for the An family for so many years, please let my family live!"

"This time I am sorry to the An family, I will die to apologize!"

After saying that, he picked up the dagger on the ground with trembling hands and was about to wipe it on his neck.

However, at the moment when the dagger was about to touch his skin, a figure instantly appeared beside him and held his hand tightly.

"Li Cai... Brother Cai?"

Old Chen saw the person clearly, it was the number one fighter of the An family, Li Cai.

It is rumored that he has superb fighting skills and knows some traditional martial arts. He has an extremely important position in the An family.

Li Cai's contribution is a big part of the reason why the An family can have the influence it has today.

But why did he stop me from committing suicide?

"Okay, Old Chen."

An Mingjie stood up and smiled.

"Just to see if you really betrayed the An family."

"I checked the leak of the news. It is true that the Lin family is very clever and hard to guard against."

"But we need to test you here. Now it seems that you are still a member of the An family, so we have no reason to let you die."

"The An family never attacks their family members!"

Old Chen's eyes were filled with tears when he heard this.

The An family is still the An family he is familiar with.

Among the three major underworld families in Jiangdu City, only the An family has truly kept its word in terms of loyalty and righteousness.

"As long as you join the An family, you are a family member!"

"The An family will never point its gun at its family members!"

This was the slogan when the An family was first established, and it is also an important foundation for the establishment of the An family to this day.

Therefore, compared with other families, the members of the An family get along better and are more united.

"Old Chen, go to the hospital for treatment later. Sorry, I was a little cruel this time."

An Mingjie walked to Old Chen, squatted down and helped him up.

Tears flashed in Lao Chen's eyes, and he said in a choked voice: "It's okay, Mr. An, I understand. This time it was my fault and brought trouble to the An family."

No matter which family the news leaked, it would definitely be a situation where no one in the family would survive.

But in the An family, he could survive!

After Lao Chen left, An Mingjie turned around and quickly and orderly directed everyone present to clean up the scene.

The bloodstains and scattered items on the floor were picked up and wiped one by one until they were restored to their original neatness.

Li Cai quietly walked to An Mingjie's side. He also lit a cigarette, and a faint smoke lingered between the two.

The two walked to the window side by side, looked at the night outside the window, and began to talk in a low voice.

"What are you going to do about the Lin family?" Li Cai asked.

"Lin Hui, that bastard, cheated me this time, and I must retaliate."

"But we are fighting with the Lin family like this, aren't we afraid that the Feng family will take advantage?"

An Mingjie frowned when he heard this.

"The three major underworld families in Jiangdu City, my An family, the Lin family and the Feng family, are now just marginal families."

"And the only two families that really have the chance to become the leading family are ours and the Feng family."

"The Lin family's foundation is still a little lacking, it's really not worth it for us to fight with him."

An Mingjie put his hands on the window and tapped gently, as if he was thinking.

After a long time, he spoke.

"So, in a month, the three major families will compete for the opportunity to be promoted to the leading family. When that time comes, we will retaliate."

"During this period, stay quiet for a while. I will go back and ask my father what he thinks."

"You should also take this time to clean up our area. Don't leave any of the little bugs from the Lin family and the Feng family."

Li Cai nodded. He often does this kind of cleaning and is very good at it.

Just then, the phone rang and An Mingjie frowned.

Who calls his private number at this time?

He took it out and looked at it. His face changed and he quickly answered it.

"Hello? Teacher Zhang?"

"Yes, I am An Rou's brother An Mingjie. Did something happen to that little girl at school?"

"Um... what?!"

An Mingjie's eyes widened. His sister was confessed in front of the whole class?

Which bastard who didn't care about his life?

An Mingjie's eyes were suddenly filled with murderous intent.

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, I know about this matter. I will handle it. Don't worry."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Zhang. Please take care of An Rou at school."

After hanging up the phone, An Mingjie's whole atmosphere became a little colder.

"Old Li, put aside the cleaning work for now and find someone for me!"

"Who?"

"Su Jiang, An Rou's classmate."

"Do you want him dead or alive?"

"Leave him alive and bring him to me."

"Okay."

Li agreed. It was just a student, which was a waste of talent for him.
