[Volume 2: Youthful Battles] Chapter 20: Reversal
Xie Wendong sneered and said, "I'm waiting for that day. But now your son is in my hands. If you want to save him, come to the North Hotel alone. We're all in the underworld. If you call the police, you don't need me to tell you the consequences, right!"
Taking a breath, Xie Wendong instructed, "Remember, come alone. Your son... will bleed to death in thirty-seven minutes! It's up to you whether to come or not!"
After that, without waiting for Li Shiming to speak, Xie Wendong hung up the phone and sneered at Li Feng, "Your life is in your father's hands. If you're not important to your father, then today is your death day!"
After that, Xie Wendong ignored Li Feng and walked out of the room. He said to Jiang Sen behind him, "Lao Sen, send someone to monitor the movements of the Qing Gang. Although Li Feng is in our hands, we can't be careless! Li Shiming is not simple. He might play some tricks!"
Jiang Sen said, "En! Don't worry, Brother Dong. I've already arranged people. Any move by Li Shiming is under our control!"
Xie Wendong smiled with satisfaction. Having a helper like Jiang Sen was definitely a great thing in life. He would do what you could think of before you even asked. Xie Wendong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good job. I didn't misjudge you. It was really right to keep you and Liu Bo back then. Haha!" Jiang Sen felt a bit embarrassed when Xie Wendong said this and lowered his head shyly.
Li Shiming was heartbroken when he learned that Li Feng was in Xie Wendong's hands. Most importantly, he had just learned the news that Gao Zhen had been rescued by Xie Wendong. Gao Zhen would never let Li Feng go. Worrying about his son's safety, Li Shiming hurriedly took his trusted subordinates and rushed to the North Hotel. On the way, he told his subordinates that everyone should stay near the hotel. No matter what happened inside, they should all rush in together after ten minutes and not let anyone go.
Li Shiming rushed to the North Hotel at the fastest speed. More than a hundred of his subordinates were lying in ambush nearby. Everyone was armed with guns, waiting for the time to rush in. Li Shiming stood at the door, took a deep breath, and walked in with big steps. When he entered the lobby, a person came over, looked at Li Shiming, and said, "Brother Dong has been waiting for you for a long time. Please go upstairs!"
Li Shiming snorted, touched his wrist, and followed the person upstairs. When they reached the third floor, the person led Li Shiming to the door of a meeting room, motioned for him to spread his arms, and then carefully searched him all over. Two pistols were found. The person smiled, pointed at the door, and said, "You can go in now!"
Li Shiming hesitated for a moment, but still pushed the door open and walked in. It was very large inside. In the middle, there was a conference table nearly ten meters long. Xie Wendong was sitting in the middle, and Gao Zhen was sitting next to him. There were more than a dozen people behind them.
"Li Shiming is really something. He really came. Haha!" Xie Wendong looked at him and laughed.
Li Shiming shouted loudly, "Xie Wendong, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Where is my son? I want to see him!"
Xie Wendong said, "No problem. I'm a man of my word. Since you're here, I'll naturally release the person!" As he spoke, he said to the people behind him, "Send two people to bring Li Feng here. Hurry up. Don't keep our guest waiting anxiously!" Two people behind him agreed and ran out quickly.
After seeing the two people go out, Li Shiming looked at Xie Wendong and asked coldly, "I'm here. Just tell me what you want!"
Xie Wendong smiled and said, "I don't have anything to 'draw a line' with you. You'd better ask Brother Gao first!" Xie Wendong pointed at Gao Zhen. Gao Zhen stood up and walked towards Li Shiming, saying coldly, "Li Shiming, you're an elder of the gang. You're already second only to one person. I've treated you well. Why did you want to harm me?"
Li Shiming sneered and said, "You? Don't you ask yourself if you're worthy of being the leader of the gang!"
Gao Zhen didn't speak and stared at Li Shiming. Li Shiming continued, "You became the leader before you even grew up! Tell me, what achievements has the Qing Gang had under your leadership in recent years? Now that it has finally developed a bit, you've gotten close to Xie Wendong and become brothers with him. Sooner or later, he'll annex the Qing Gang, and you still think he's a good person! Gao Zhen, let me tell you, you don't have the courage or the mind to be the leader. If the Qing Gang is still led by you, the day of its destruction is not far away. I know you've treated me well, so I didn't kill you!"
Gao Zhen listened quietly until Li Shiming finished speaking, and then said angrily, "Yes! Maybe I don't have the ability to be a good leader, but does that mean you can be the leader? If you want to be the leader of the Qing Gang, you can organize all the elders to impeach me. What kind of despicable means is it to do this to me?! The Qing Gang will be destroyed even faster if it's led by you!"
Li Shiming laughed heartily, "Today, if it weren't for what happened to Li Feng, I would have already destroyed the Wendong Society. It's just that heaven doesn't bless me!"
Li Shiming pointed at Xie Wendong and said harshly, "Xie Wendong, you're really smart! Gao Zhen is a fool, but I'm not. You getting close to the Qing Gang isn't just for your own development, is it? As long as I'm alive, don't even think about touching the Qing Gang!"
Xie Wendong's heart moved secretly. His face was gloomy as he stared at Li Shiming and said, "Li Shiming, I'll tell you today. I have no intention of touching the Qing Gang, let alone annexing it. As long as Brother Gao is here, the Wendong Society will always be the Qing Gang's ally!"
"Haha!" Li Shiming laughed, "You can only say such things to a fool like Gao Zhen. Do you think others can't see your wolfish ambitions?!"
Xie Wendong snorted and turned his head, no longer speaking. But in his heart, he secretly thought that Li Shiming was really not simple! In fact, Xie Wendong wasn't without thoughts of annexing the Qing Gang when Gao Zhen was off guard against him. It's just that there was never an opportunity. First, he had to deal with the Tiger Gang, and then the Brotherhood Alliance. By the time everything was finally cleared up, the city government had a major reshuffle.
Xie Wendong had asked himself several times. If there was really an opportunity to annex the Qing Gang, would he give it up because of his friendship with Gao Zhen? But every time the answer that flashed through his mind was no, never give up! Although he knew that doing so was wrong.
What is justice? No one can say clearly. Today, you may think something is wrong and not do it. Maybe when you look back later, it will be the right thing to do. By then, there will be no chance to regret, and no one will thank you or sympathize with you. For development, if you still want to be strong, you must give up some things, that is, conscience and so-called justice!
Gao Zhen sneered and said, "Li Shiming, don't try to sow discord between me and Wendong. I believe in my vision and Wendong's character! Only a small person like you will be on guard against others all the time and everywhere!"
Li Shiming gritted his teeth in anger when he heard this. Looking at Gao Zhen standing up for Xie Wendong, he really wanted to go up and give Gao Zhen a good beating.
At this moment, Li Feng was dragged in by two people. After entering the room, the two people threw Li Feng on the ground and walked to Xie Wendong's side to whisper, "Brother Dong, Li Feng is dead!" Xie Wendong nodded expressionlessly. Even if Li Feng wasn't dead, he wouldn't be released alive because he had dared to be rude to Gao Huiyu, which Xie Wendong couldn't tolerate now.
When Li Shiming saw his son being thrown on the ground, he rushed over quickly. Li Feng was pale and lying motionless on the ground. Li Shiming suddenly had a bad premonition. His trembling hand touched Li Feng's nose, but he didn't feel a trace of warmth. Li Shiming didn't give up and touched Li Feng's neck again. There was no pulse.
Li Shiming had no tears. He hugged Li Feng tightly in his arms. The pain of losing a son in old age was beyond what an ordinary person could bear, especially since Li Shiming only had this one son. After about five minutes, Li Shiming let out a loud "Ao" and burst into tears. His hand still held Li Feng's body tightly.
Gao Zhen felt sorry when he saw this. Although he hated Li Shiming, he still felt a bit of sympathy for him when he saw such a scene. Xie Wendong supported his chin with his hand and quietly waited for Li Shiming to finish crying. Just now, in his heart, he had already sentenced Li Shiming to death. It wasn't because he rebelled, but because he was too smart. If he really became the leader of the Qing Gang in the future, he would definitely be a strong enemy.
After a long time, Li Shiming slowly put Li Feng down. His movements were very slow, as if Li Feng was asleep and he was afraid of waking him up. Standing up, Li Shiming stared at Xie Wendong and gritted his teeth, "Xie Wendong, what grudge do I have against you? Why did you kill my son? You have to pay with your life today!"
Xie Wendong said in a deep voice, "Your son deserved to die! Do you know why? Because he dared to touch Gao Huiyu. Just for this reason, he can die ten thousand times!" Looking at Li Shiming's pale face due to excessive grief, Xie Wendong sneered and said, "Pay with my life? Haha, I don't know why you can say such things. But one thing I can tell you is that you must die today!"
"Haha!" Li Shiming laughed wildly, pointed at Xie Wendong, and shouted frantically, "I die? If I die, you won't live either. No one here can leave today. You all have to die and be buried with my son!"
Xie Wendong said, "Are you still counting on your subordinates? Stop dreaming. If it's still in time now, maybe you can see them being taken away by the police if you lean out of the window."
Li Shiming opened his mouth in surprise and walked towards the window in disbelief. He opened the curtain and looked down. Sure enough, there were police lights flashing outside. Dozens of police cars were parked nearby. By the light, he could vaguely see the police arresting people and putting them in the cars. Li Shiming turned around and looked at Xie Wendong. If looks could kill, Xie Wendong might be torn to pieces by Li Shiming's gaze.
Xie Wendong smiled and said, "I know you're very surprised. Why are there police here? Your every move is under my control. Even the content of your conversations with your subordinates is clear to me. Do you think I don't know that you've ambushed your subordinates nearby? I called the police. They will 'entertain' your subordinates well. Don't worry. I don't think anyone will escape!"
Li Shiming let out a long sigh, "Xie Wendong, you're really smart! I lost..."
Xie Wendong smiled triumphantly, stood up, and said, "Li Shiming, you're still sensible. With your mind, you should be able to guess what I'll do to you!" Looking at Gao Zhen next to him, he took a breath and said, "You despicable villain. Brother Gao treated you so well, yet you still plotted against him. A person like you can't be left alive!" After that, he made a gesture to his subordinates behind him.
Li Shiming wasn't a fool. He knew that Xie Wendong had murderous intentions. He hardened his heart and decided that even if he died, he wouldn't let Xie Wendong live. Thinking of this, he waved his arm, and a palm-sized gun fell from his wrist. He pointed it at Xie Wendong and shouted loudly, "Don't move, or I'll kill Xie Wendong first!"
Everyone was shocked, including Xie Wendong. No one expected Li Shiming to have this move. The people of the Wendong Society didn't dare to take another step forward and moved their hands towards their lower backs one after another. Li Shiming sneered and said, "You'd better not draw your guns, or I'll definitely make Xie Wendong die first!"
Li Shiming's words stunned everyone. Then he waved his hand at Xie Wendong and said, "Xie Wendong, come over here slowly! Better not play any tricks!"
Xie Wendong laughed instead. He sat down, picked up a cigarette, and slowly smoked it, completely ignoring the existence of Li Shiming with a gun. His calm and leisurely appearance made everyone in the conference room secretly give a thumbs up.
Li Shiming's heart turned cold. He had lost. He knew that he didn't have Xie Wendong's courage. That couldn't be faked. The aura of a king exuded from Xie Wendong was overwhelming. Xie Wendong said faintly, "Li Shiming, don't make unnecessary resistance. A man should be able to accept defeat. Since you joined this game, you should have considered the consequences!"
