20 years of restarting life

Chapter 3595 Zhang Shun
The cabin door opened, and Zhao Chang'an was the first to step out and stand on the shuttle bus.

The sky was blue, the clouds were white, and the sun was shining brightly; it was neither cold nor warm.

This is his third time setting foot on the land of Xingcheng.

The first time was when he met Qiu Jinhui and obtained the evidence from Xia Wenyang. At that time, time was of the essence, and Sui Yong helped coordinate a small regional propeller plane.

Having met Zhang Shun and obtained the necessary evidence, he also took advantage of Qiu Jinhui, a 39-year-old woman who, while not particularly beautiful, was still plump and charming, thus giving Xia Wenyang and Zeng Chunming a cuckold's horns.

In this regard, Zhao Chang'an secretly felt that his revenge was quite successful, but it was a pity about Qiao Qinqin, who was nowhere to be found by that old swindler.

Qiao Qinqin is prettier and takes better care of herself. Her fair and delicate skin makes her more feminine than Qiu Jinhui. However, no one is as beautiful as the wildflower, and women are always considered better when they are someone else's wife, so Xia Wenyang set his sights on her.

As a result, his wife, whom he thought was a sure thing, ran off with an old swindler because of love. Not only was he cheated on, but the tens of millions of yuan he had painstakingly acquired in Xingcheng were also swindled away.

The second time was when Qu Zhou set up a company to operate the 'Millennium' game and wanted to cooperate with One Nano to form a joint venture. Then he encountered Bai Yide, a lunatic, and got a severe beating, which he still remembers vividly.

Zhao Chang'an could see from afar that five black business sedans were parked at the edge of the airport, and a group of people were standing there. Except for a man and a woman, the rest were all wearing indigo suits.

The man was also wearing a suit, but it was a two-tone suit with red and blue accents. His hair was dyed red and styled with mousse, making it look like a rooster's comb.

Zhao Chang'an's sharp gaze fell upon Zhang Shun's face.

Standing next to him was a woman wearing a white lace-trimmed dress, with long, flowing hair. She was very beautiful, with light makeup, and exuded a pure and innocent charm.

At this moment, Zhang Shun, with his rooster-comb haircut, took the hand of the innocent-looking woman with one hand. Her sleeveless dress made her hand appear very white and slender. He first pointed in this direction with his other hand, tilting his head and smiling as he spoke to her. Then, the hand he was pointing with turned into a vigorous wave towards Zhao Chang'an.

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Chang'an and Zhang Shun had not seen each other for more than a year.

Seeing his good brother finally emerge from the nightmare of Zhu Ling, no longer a playboy chasing after prostitutes, but seriously dating a woman, Zhao Chang'an felt very happy for Zhang Shun.

Zhao Chang'an easily spotted Xia Wenzhuo in the crowd. She was wearing an indigo suit and trousers, and her long hair had been cut into a short bob, giving her a more androgynous look. Although she was still a stunningly beautiful woman, she now possessed a touch of heroic spirit.

Moreover, the women standing next to her, Ji Bingyan, Yue Xinyue, and Wei Xuena, who originally all had long hair, now all had short hair like Xia Wenzhuo, making them look capable.

Zhao Chang'an also knew the deeper reason: when Xia Wenzhuo and his group first arrived in Xingcheng, things didn't go so smoothly. Although they never flaunted their wealth and tried to keep a low profile, the first people to notice them when they first arrived were definitely the street urchins, swindlers, thieves, and other shady characters in the area where they were staying.

These people swarmed in like flies and leeches, especially Xia Wenzhuo's beauty, and the other women were also quite beautiful, which made those lecherous men drool and want to experience the exotic atmosphere.

For this reason, Zhang Shun led a group of people to sweep through several blocks. This was partly due to Bai Feifei's influence, which allowed him to enter that underground circle. He then gradually gained a foothold through his bravery and ruthlessness. This time, it was thanks to Xia Wenzhuo's financial resources that Zhang Shun was able to gather such a large group of street thugs.

They'd provide meat to eat, medical care and a hefty bonus for injuries, a large reward and a promise of a job for life for those disabled, and a substantial death benefit in addition to a guaranteed old age and funeral arrangements for their parents. Their wives and children would receive monthly payments, with the wife receiving payments for life as long as she didn't remarry, and the children supported until they graduated from university or turned 23. Even street thugs who were beaten up and taken to the hospital would receive money for treatment and hush money.

Under the combined influence of money and pressure, Zhang Shun was transformed into a rising star in Xingcheng's underground scene in just one year.

This was also due to the White Dragon King's influence, and Zhang Shun's consistently measured actions. He only engaged in double-crossing, and after doing so, he avoided gambling, prostitution, and drugs, which were essentially untouchable. At most, he would smuggle some precious timber and jade from Malaysia and other northern countries. With no conflict of interest, both the legitimate and criminal sides welcomed the rise of his underground force.

This is also backed by substantial financial resources; otherwise, Zhang Shun would never have been able to stand up to the challenge.

Xia Wenzhuo also changed his previous sweet image in China, dressing in a more androgynous style, and even requiring the women under his command to do the same.

After all, in a foreign country, there are always some lecherous people who are used to being arrogant and unconvinced, so it is necessary to try to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After descending the steps of the shuttle bus, the group was guided by airport staff who were waiting nearby to the airport parking lot.

Zhao Chang'an said to Qiao Hang beside him, "You're free to do whatever you want these next two days, but be careful. Although the security here is okay, it's nothing compared to what's happening back home."

"It's already agreed that we'll be doing this as a group, just visiting a few tourist attractions."

Qiao Hang nodded and said, "I heard that you got into a fight last time you came here and suffered quite a loss?"

"I encountered a lunatic."

Zhao Chang'an still felt pain all over his body after hearing this. It was a pity that he was not strong enough, otherwise he really wanted to beat Bai Yide to a pulp.

"Then be careful. The itinerary arranged in Europe is all on schedule."

Zhao Chang'an nodded, understanding what Qiao Hang meant. If he didn't show up at the agreed time and claimed he had been beaten up while sparring with someone, or had a bruised and swollen face, then there was basically no point in negotiating the business.

As they were talking, they had already reached the parking lot. Zhang Shun had already spread his arms wide in an exaggerated way towards Zhao Chang'an, as if he wanted to hug him.

"Who is this? Is it Brother Chicken?"

Zhao Chang'an was joking.

“Rich Zhao, Chicken is bald. How long has it been since you last watched a movie? You can’t even remember that?”

Zhang Shun scorned Zhao Chang'an's shallowness, and then the two brothers hugged each other tightly.

As for this brother, Zhao Chang'an could only say he was a good brother. In his previous life, he had been a scoundrel and ended up in the Peach Blossom River. In this life, he jumped in as well, but the flapping of the butterfly's wings allowed Zhang Shun to luckily find a boat.
