Chapter 427: Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty-Two: Got Smashed
In the headquarters of the Qinghai Gang, the members of the Yuan Gang surrounded the place completely, leaving no gaps. Yuan Hai sat expressionlessly on the sofa in the hall, watching Liu Kai smoking.
Liu Kai took a drag on his cigarette calmly and exhaled lightly. Li Lin, the second-in-command of the Qinghai Gang, brought a group of people to the headquarters. When he saw the members of the Yuan Gang, his eyes narrowed. He slapped a member of the Yuan Gang standing in front of him to the ground, "Get out!"
"Boss!" Li Lin glared as he led his men to Liu Kai and then looked at Yuan Hai, half-squinting his eyes. "Yuan Hai, do you know what you’re doing right now?!"
"Doing what?" Yuan Hai coldly snorted with a smile, "Isn’t it obvious? The Qinghai Gang’s position in Qing City’s underground scene has been stable for several years. Now, I’m just helping the Qinghai Gang to rise in rank."
Li Lin sneered, "Everyone knows about your ambitious schemes, Yuan Hai. Helping us? More like helping yourself."
"Brother Li, you shouldn’t say that," Yuan Hai quickly waved his hand and then gave a sinister smile, "Once the Qinghai Gang belongs to the Yuan Gang, helping me will be helping you too, won’t it?"
"You!"
"Lin."
Liu Kai spoke to stop Li Lin’s words, looking calmly at Yuan Hai, "Boss Yuan, coming so recklessly to our Qinghai Gang’s turf, aren’t you afraid of losing everything, failing to take us down, but handing over your Yuan Gang to others?"
"Oh?" Yuan Hai laughed arrogantly at Liu Kai’s words, "Now, the Yuan Gang has nearly double the members of the Qinghai Gang. You are now like fish in a barrel, birds in the forest, unable to escape!"
As he spoke, Yuan Hai squinted his eyes, "So, Boss Liu, while I’m in a good mood, why don’t you just surrender the Qinghai Gang to our Yuan Gang? Otherwise, once we start fighting, I’m afraid..."
Yuan Hai leaned forward, speaking slowly, "There will be deaths."
"Hmph, didn’t expect Boss Yuan to be so formidable," Li Lin tried hard to suppress his anger, "Yuan Hai, don’t forget, when the Yuan Gang was on the brink of collapse, who knelt at our gang’s door, begging for a way to survive!"
"If it wasn’t for Brother Liu’s kindness, who knows where you would be now, Yuan Hai!"
Yuan Hai angered by Li Lin’s words, slammed the table, "Don’t bring up the past! Don’t think I don’t know you helped me just for amusement! Otherwise, why didn’t you let me join the Qinghai Gang?"
Li Lin found Yuan Hai’s words laughable, "Yuan Hai, you know the rules to join the Qinghai Gang. First, you must avoid three things, but you violated them all!"
"Second, aside from spilling the blood of enemies, no other blood can be shed! But you, no enemy’s blood was spilled, yet you stained innocent blood everywhere."
"Moreover, your ambition is too great. You said you wanted to stay in the Qinghai Gang, but deep down, who knows what you’re plotting? For someone like you, it’s already good enough for us to protect you from being killed, yet you want to join the gang? Delusional!"
Li Lin’s words stripped Yuan Hai of his dignity, exposing the truth that even Yuan Hai’s plan to cozy up to Liu Kai and seize control was revealed. For a moment, Yuan Hai’s face turned livid.
After Li Lin finished speaking, Liu Kai looked at Yuan Hai, "Boss Yuan is young and wants to rise to power, we old folks have no objections."
"The Qinghai Gang has a long history in Qing City’s underground scene. Moreover, our Qinghai Gang is known for not competing, only protecting those in need and rejecting unreasonable troublemakers. That’s our constant rule."
"But now, Boss Yuan wants to change our Qinghai Gang, to make it something other than the Qinghai Gang," Liu Kai sneered, "That’s impossible!"
Yuan Hai abruptly stood up, "Liu Kai, don’t be shameless! Pretending to be tough! Guys, get him..."
At that moment, a person ran to Yuan Hai, "Boss, bad news! Three out of our five bars have been taken over, the remaining two involved in drugs have been shut down by the police!"
Soon, another person ran in, "Boss, our headquarters has been smashed, and everyone inside has been tied up!"
Yuan Hai suddenly raised his head to look at Liu Kai, "It’s you!"
Liu Kai shook his head slowly, "I told you, there are ambitious young men, not just you."
"Boss Liu, don’t compare me to such people, it disgusts me." A cold voice echoed as a group suddenly rushed into the hall, surrounding the Yuan Gang members.
A youth stepped out from the crowd; his golden half-mask glowed menacingly under the lights.
