The Lady of the Prestigious Family is a Big Boss-Chapter 809: Astounding Lack of Intelligence (3)
Capturing his surprise, Ye Jiuliang played with the silver mask in his hand, speaking softly, "Don’t try to establish connections here. You collaborated with Hunter to switch K organization’s goods, rest assured, you won’t escape either."
Li Jingjie turned pale, suddenly regretting his cooperation with Hunter.
"You say you’re with the K organization. What proof do you have?" At this point, Hunter held on to a shred of hope, casting calculating glances at Ye Jiuliang and his companion, his mind churning.
"Besides, the leader of the K organization is called Chu Chen, a man; everyone knows this."
"Who told you the K organization only has one leader?" Gu Xinuo sneered disdainfully, pulling out a White Jade Token from his pocket, "You should recognize this, right?"
Hunter was left speechless, his last strand of hope extinguished.
The exclusive token of the K organization, impossible to counterfeit.
Their information network managed to trace the switch of their goods so quickly.
Sensing Hunter’s inevitable downfall, Li Jingjie pleaded immediately, "This matter has nothing to do with me, he incited me to do it. I meant no offense to the K organization, I beg you, let me go."
"In the future, if the K organization has any need for me, I will serve diligently."
"Li Jingjie." Sophia looked incredulously at the man eager to sever ties with her and her father, disappointment etched across her features.
"You heartless guy, have you forgotten who helped you? Now you abandon us without a thought."
Li Jingjie turned a deaf ear, continuously bowing to Ye Jiuliang, "I truly meant no offense, I won’t dare again, please spare me."
Suddenly recalling something, he hurriedly added, "The president of MK Group is my fifth uncle, taking his position into account, I beg you to spare me."
"MK Group?" Gu Xinuo chuckled meaningfully, turning to Ye Jiuliang, "Do you recognize it?"
Ye Jiuliang shot her a glance and replied, "Don’t recognize it."
Trying to use her family’s name, it would be strange to let him off.
"Li Jingjie, you bastard." Hunter shouted angrily, grabbing the fruit knife on the table and pressing it against Li Jingjie’s throat, "You didn’t say this when you took benefits from me, now you dare to turn against me."
Li Jingjie froze, cast a sidelong glance at Hunter, "You didn’t tell me clearly about K organization’s background, that’s why I was tricked into doing your bidding, now that things have gone wrong, it’s naturally all your fault."
As he spoke, he stepped back and tried to snatch the fruit knife from his hand.
But Hunter, despite being older, had a skillset he couldn’t match, being someone who practiced free combat regularly, striking with ferocious swiftness.
The sharp tip of the knife pierced into Li Jingjie’s chest, splattering his face with bright red blood.
"You..."
Li Jingjie’s eyes widened with disbelief, his remaining pallor drained entirely.
"This is the price of betraying me." Hunter smiled cruelly, pulling out the fruit knife.
Sophia stood dumbfounded, watching Li Jingjie collapse before her, her face turning pale with fear.
Ye Jiuliang watched the fallen Li Jingjie with a calm gaze, neither happy nor angry.
Although the old man had exiled him along with Li Jingxuan and her mother abroad, he was given his due; just the wealth alone could ensure a life of luxury. Ending up like this, he could only blame his own greed.
"I am willing to offer all my wealth as an apology to K organization, as long as you spare me." Hunter looked at Ye Jiuliang and her companion, starting to negotiate.
Gu Xinuo asked with interest, "What if we don’t agree?"
"With no retreat left, we’ll perish together." Hunter roared angrily.
"Perish together, are you worthy?" Ye Jiuliang sneered coldly, flicking his fingers, a silver needle sliced through the air and embedded in Hunter’s shoulder.
Hunter felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, casting a fierce gaze at Ye Jiuliang, "What did you do to me?"
"Since you’re so interested in our K organization, I’ll fulfill your wish. Relax, I don’t intend to take your life now, when you wake up, you’ll get to enjoy the sights of our K organization." Ye Jiuliang stood up, dusting off his clothes gracefully.
Hunter’s eyes widened, just about to speak, his eyelids fell involuntarily shut.
His body slumped, crashing to the ground unconscious.
"Daddy." Sophia scrambled to Hunter’s side, pushing him with both hands.
"Wake up, quickly."
She glared at Ye Jiuliang and her companion, her teeth clenched, "You hideous monsters, what did you do to my daddy? Can K organization just act so unreasonably?"
Gu Xinuo looked at her as if she were an idiot.
They were the ones who swapped their goods first, yet she dared to claim they were justified?
Was she touched in the head or had impressively low intelligence?
There should be limits to being thick-skinned, hers was almost as thick as a latrine wall.
Any thought of letting her go was completely eradicated, Gu Xinuo spoke softly, "Don’t worry, we won’t separate you two."
With her temperament, freeing her would eventually cause problems, better to take her along.
Sophia’s heart sank, "What do you mean?"
"Just that we’ll take you along to appreciate the views of K organization."
With these words, Gu Xinuo turned her hand into a blade, striking unexpectedly at the back of her neck.
Sophia’s body went limp, collapsing into unconsciousness.
Ye Jiuliang walked to the door, opened it, outside stood two guards clad in black.
"Master Jiu."
"Take them away." Ye Jiuliang instructed calmly.
"Yes."
"Anuo, let’s go."
"Coming."
Gu Xinuo withdrew his hand and walked swiftly over.
The two of them left the bar quietly, as if they had never been there.
Returning to the car, Gu Xinuo asked, "Where to now?"
"Hungry, let’s grab a late-night snack." Ye Jiuliang replied, removing the mask from his face.
At that moment, the phone rang inside the cabin.
Throwing the mask aside, she rummaged for the phone, glanced at the note, and couldn’t help but smile.
Gu Xinuo caught the caller display, teasing, "Checking up on you."
Ye Jiuliang shushed him, gave him a look, then answered the call, "Still awake?"
The deep and magnetic voice of the man reached her ears, softening her heart.
"I slept too long in the afternoon, now I can’t fall asleep."
