“What’s wrong?! That’s my question for you!” Huang Fahong's furious bellow echoed through the phone, audible to all who were listening.
No question about it, if Huang Fahong stood before Gui Ya right then, he'd be hocking a loogie right in his face!
“Let me ask you, what exactly went down earlier? Who did you manage to piss off?”
“Why has the provincial office announced they're heading straight to Coastal City to probe my brother-in-law and the whole Public Works team?!”
“My brother-in-law, along with everyone else tied to the Huang family in the department, they've all been locked down and face an impending probe!”
“I…” Gui Ya felt utterly bewildered. “I haven't done a thing. I was simply back in my hometown, gearing up to handle some clueless newbie tycoon?”
He glanced over at Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao. “These two just placed a call outward. Boss Huang, it seems your brother-in-law and his crew stirred up some unrelated mess, doesn't it?”
“Nonsense!” Huang Fahong cut off Gui Ya mid-sentence with a sharp rebuke!
“My brother-in-law went out of his way to relay a message through a contact, insisting he hasn't stepped out of line at all lately!”
“Moreover, this probe hit swift and hard, skipping all standard protocols entirely. It's clearly a backlash from crossing someone way above their pay grade!”
“Among the Huang family crew, you're the sole one stirring up chaos out there moments ago! Spill every detail to me about your actions and who you ticked off! Omit even a syllable, and I'll flay you myself!”
A chill ran through Gui Ya as he recounted the full sequence of events to Huang Fahong.
Once Huang Fahong absorbed the tale, a hint of doubt crept into his voice.
“A pair of out-of-town rich upstarts?”
“They couldn't possibly wield that kind of influence, could they?”
“Exactly…” Gui Ya refused to accept that Zhuang Xiaoqiao's call packed such punch. He appeared deeply wronged. “Probably your brother-in-law crossed paths with the wrong individual by mistake.”
“I'll ring up my superior and check if there's any intel to uncover!” Huang Fahong abruptly ended the call.
Gui Ya exhaled in relief.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao exchanged knowing grins.
“I've often heard tales of fools meeting their end through sheer idiocy, yet I dismissed them. Witnessing it firsthand today proves those stories hold water.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao shook her head after her chuckle.
“That's how certain folks operate—they cling to their preferred delusions. The plain facts might stare them down, yet they opt to shut their eyes tight!” Ye Feng remarked with a faint smile.
“What are you implying?” Gui Ya struggled to accept it. “Are you saying the probe into Coastal City's department truly stemmed from that single call?”
“Impossible!” The instant those words left his mouth, the bald guy—previously smacked aside by Ye Feng—jumped in first. “To spur the province into rapid action, confining key figures in the city department, not even the heavyweight backing Boss Huang could pull that off! A couple of visiting rich nobodies… no way they possess that clout!”
“They're obviously bluffing to scare us off!”
“Brother Ya, once our crew shows up, we gotta give them a proper thrashing!”
Gui Ya opened his mouth to respond when his phone buzzed once more.
As the line clicked open, Huang Fahong's enraged outburst blasted through. “Gui Ya, you worthless scum, what sort of monster have you gone and riled up!?”
“Moments ago, the top brass supporting me got hauled in too!”
“He dispatched a messenger with word that you're the one who doomed him!”
“Did you hold back crucial details earlier? Come clean about everything involving those two outsiders you crossed!”
“I…” Gui Ya's frame shook uncontrollably.
Nearby, a thug covered in scars—wincing in agony with a fiendish glare—froze like he'd been zapped by thunder. Terror filled his gaze as he stared at Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao.
“Even the high-ranking provincial figure shielding Boss Huang got nabbed in a flash… This has rattled the truly elite circles?!”
