The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

"Ding Xin?"

Jiang Hengzhe's expression didn't change much, but he asked, "Who is he? Why did Ding Qing approach him?"

"He is a close relative of Ding Qing and is now the leader of the Lutheran Faction in Jialifeng Cave."

Jiang Hengzhe curled his lip and cursed, "Damn it, another troublesome black bastard."

Upon hearing this, Li Zicheng appeared somewhat uneasy.

Kang Hyung-cheol noticed this scene, patted Lee Ja-sung on the shoulder, and comforted him, "Don't get too involved. You're different from them. You're an undercover agent. You're one of us."

Li Zicheng nodded, then said excitedly, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Hengzhe interrupted him again: "You just said that Ding Qing is raising money everywhere, and it's a lot of money. What does he want to do with that money?"

Li Zicheng paused for a moment, then frowned and said uncertainly, "I'm not quite sure either. Maybe it's meant to be used to win over some people..."

"Who are you trying to win over? Do you have a plan?" Kang Hyung-cheol asked again.

"No, this is just a guess, but none of that matters. Right now..." Li Zicheng's tone sounded somewhat urgent.

"Zicheng, the more important it is to remain calm when facing major events, the more you need to stay composed. As you said, this internal strife might result in bloodshed, but that's only a possibility. And even if we can catch them in the act, so what?"

"Isn't it normal for gangsters to fight their way to the top? Even if they're caught, how long will they be sentenced? What's the point if they can't be completely eradicated?"

Kang Hyung-cheol's series of questions left Lee Ja-sung speechless.

He stared at Li Zicheng and said softly, "The most important thing now is that you must take this opportunity to keep a close eye on where that money is going. I suspect it may be related to the protective umbrella behind the Peking University faction."

Ding Qing is, after all, a veteran of the Peking University faction. If he can take over directly this time, it would be a good thing. You are his best brother. He is the number one, and you are the number two.

From now on, you'll have more opportunities to contact the protectors behind the major Peking University factions. Catching them is the key to solving the problem. Understand?

Li Zicheng remained silent for a few seconds, his expression revealing a hint of resentment.

He took two deep breaths, trying to suppress his emotions: "Section Chief Jiang, I really can't take it anymore. If I can't go back this time, will I really have another chance next time?"

"Just help Ding Qing get promoted. Don't think too much. He's come this far. Now he's just one step away from success."

After Jiang Hengzhe finished speaking, he stood up and left a final sentence at the door: "As long as you can catch the big fish behind the North Gate Sect, you can come back, I promise!"

Chapter 62 I believe you

a few days later.

The usually bustling Garry Peak Boxing Gym had a slightly unusual atmosphere today, simply because a group of uninvited guests had arrived.

Inside the office, Ding Xin leaned back in his executive chair as always.

He casually propped his feet up on the desk, fiddling with a metal lighter in his hand, and stared blankly at the coffee table not far away, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Wu Xiuyan sat gracefully on one side of the coffee table.

Today she was wearing a pair of loose black culottes, paired with a loose white chiffon shirt, and shiny black high-heeled shoes.

She styled her hair into a bun, her shapely body enveloped in soft clothing, exuding an intellectual allure.

A slightly greasy-looking man sat opposite her.

With his legs crossed and swinging back and forth, he looked like a carefree hoodlum. He was none other than Ding Qing, a minor leader of the Northern Sect.

He kept glancing between Wu Xiuyan and Ding Xin, his eyes darting around...

Li Zicheng squatted down next to Ding Qing, busy with his work.

At this moment, they are opening the six large boxes placed on the ground one by one and checking the banknotes inside.

Today, Ding Xin took the initiative to invite Ding Qing over, and the money in the box was the 30 billion yuan in cash that Ding Xin promised to give to Ding Qing.

Because of the large amount of money involved, and also for the sake of transportation safety, Ding Qing brought quite a few people with him this time.

His men are all waiting outside his office, which has caused the unusual situation at the boxing gym training area outside.

As for why Wu Xiuyan is here too.

Ironically, after deducting necessary expenses, Ding Xin had less than 7 million yuan in cash left after these two months.

He also asked Huang Chunzhi to transfer another 10 million in cash, bringing the total to 30 billion, which is still far from 3 billion.

Having no other choice, he tried mentioning it to Wu Xiuyan.

Unexpectedly, this woman was truly righteous. She didn't even ask Ding Xin what he needed the money for, but only asked him if he was in a hurry.

After receiving Ding Xin's affirmative reply, he began to allocate funds from various venues.

Adding her own savings, she managed to scrape together 20 billion yuan in just a few days and sent it to Ding Xin in batches.

Knowing that the last batch of money would arrive today, Ding Xin contacted Ding Qing in advance to come and collect it.

However, he did not expect that Wu Xiuyan would bring the money in person this time, which resulted in her and Ding Qing having this unexpected encounter.

Snapped!

Li Zicheng closed the last box and nodded to Ding Qing.

Ding Qing immediately grinned, gave him a thumbs up, and exclaimed, "Hey, brother, awesome!"

He was indeed somewhat surprised, as 30 billion was no small sum.

He guessed that even if Ding Xin could raise the money, it would be a struggle, and it would be quite good if he could raise it within a month, considering how long Ding Xin had been in business.

Unexpectedly, Ding Xin had already prepared the money in just a few days. This young man is truly unfathomable.

Ding Xin snapped out of his daze, stood up, and threw the lighter in his hand onto the table.

He strolled over and sat down next to Wu Xiuyan, habitually putting his arm around her shoulder.

Looking at Ding Qing with a half-smile, he said, "If I didn't have some ability, how could I have the opportunity to cooperate with Brother Ding Qing, right?"

The sudden attack made Wu Xiuyan stiffen for a moment. She rolled her eyes at Ding Xin reproachfully, and then snuggled into his arms.

"Haha, of course, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared."

Ding Qing gave the two of them a knowing look, then changed the subject and said with a smile, "It seems this must be your sister-in-law. May I ask how to address her?"

The woman in front of him looked somewhat familiar, if he wasn't mistaken...

Wu Xiuyan smiled slightly, about to speak, but Ding Xin answered first:

"President Wu Xiuyan, my partner, owns a few small venues in Jiangnan. Brother Ding Qing, you can visit them when you have time. I'll have her make the arrangements for you."

When Wu Xiuyan saw Ding Xin speak, she chose to remain silent, only looking thoughtfully at Ding Qing opposite her.

She knew Ding Qing.

Although many people in her line of work have never seen her in person, they still collect photos and information about those people they can't afford to offend.

That's why she's now a little curious about the relationship between Ding Xin and Ding Qing.

On the surface, the two seem to be collaborating on something.

As for what kind of cooperation? She couldn't tell for the time being.

While she was lost in thought, Ding Qing and Ding Xin were constantly joking with each other.

The main topic still revolved around this President Wu. It's no wonder Ding Qing was abrupt; he was just really curious.

After Ding Xin's introduction, he also confirmed the true identity of this President Wu, who was none other than Wu Xiuyan, the queen of the Jiangnan brothel industry.

He silently gave Ding Xin a thumbs up in his heart.

For no other reason than that Ding Xin just admitted that 20 billion of these funds were borrowed from President Wu, and interest-free!

Looking at it this way, it's clear that my little brother is just a freeloader.

Damn, I'm so envious...

"By the way, how's your progress?"

Ding Xin took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and Wu Xiuyan obediently lit it for him.

"Not bad. With this money in hand, many plans can officially begin."

Ding Qing looked very excited and said, "We can officially begin in no more than a month!"

Ding Xin slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and suggested, "The sooner the better. The longer it drags on, the more likely unexpected problems will arise..."

Whatever Ding Qing intended to do with the money, it was impossible for word to get out.

In the eyes of those with ulterior motives, this could easily lead to trouble.

Ding Qing nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

His younger brother was right. He had received information that his actions in the last few days had already attracted the attention of certain people.

It seems we really need to hurry!

"By the way, shall I write you an IOU for this money?"

Ding Qing suddenly spoke up: "Consider it an extra layer of insurance for you."

"Need not."

Ding Xin waved his hand dismissively and said casually, "I believe you!"

His attitude highlights trust.
