While out picking up trash, I was forcefully pushed around by a beautiful female CEO.

"Even you understand this principle, do you think Qin Xiao doesn't?"

Luo Shihai glanced at Luo Bin, and he was quite pleased that his son had thought of this.

"So what's with this whole mess the Qin family's making?"

Luo Bin was even more confused.

"That's why I said things aren't that simple! After Su Tianyang was arrested, Qin Xiao still had time to go to Zhang Hao's bar, which means that the Qin family doesn't currently plan any major follow-up actions against the Su family. After all, Su Tianyang is now the deputy director of our Minghai City government, and it's not so easy to move him. Moreover, the Su family also has the support of the capital city. If the Qin family wants to bring down the Su family overnight, that's wishful thinking."

Luo Shihai frowned and said.

"What's the point? So it's just to lock Su Tianyang up for a few days? Is this some kind of child's game?"

Luo Bin became more and more confused as he listened.

"The Qin family's true purpose is still unclear, but it seems that Qin Xiao accidentally killed Su Mingxuan, and then, to prevent Su Tianyang from causing trouble impulsively, they found a pretext to lock him up and calm him down. As for why the Qin family helped the Meng family..."

Luo Shihai thought for a moment and said, "Actually, it's quite simple. The Su family has been trying to win over the forces in Minghai City recently. That girl from the Meng family unilaterally broke off the marriage with the Su family, which is equivalent to dragging the Meng family into the opposition of the Su family. Since they are the opposition of the Su family, the Qin family naturally has to make some overtures. After all, the Qin family understands the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"You mean, the Qin family is standing up for the Meng family to show outsiders their stance? To send a signal that they're not afraid of the Su family?"

Luo Bin realized what was happening and said.

"Yes, that should be the case! If the Qin family doesn't take a tougher stance, who will be willing to align themselves with them when trying to win people over in the future? Once all the forces in Minghai City are aligned with the Su family, the Qin family's doomsday will be upon them."

As Luo Shihai spoke, his gaze fell on Luo Bin's legs: "This time, you guys are just unlucky. The Qin family wanted to establish their authority and make a statement, and our Luo family and the Su family are in the same boat. We ran into Qin Xiao's gun. It's already good enough that you were allowed to come back."

"grass!"

Luo Bin gritted his teeth in hatred and said with extreme resentment, "Then what do we do? Are we just going to let this go like this? My legs were just broken by that bastard Qin Xiao for nothing?"

"Of course we can't just let it go like this!"

Luo Shihai said coldly.

"Dad, you already have a plan?"

Upon hearing Luo Shihai's words, Luo Bin immediately perked up.

"Hmm! Qin Xiao's mother, Yu Xiuqin, isn't she planning to develop a business district in Minghai? Hmph, if this woman really succeeds, the Qin family will have another achievement, and their foundation in Minghai City will be even more solid. The more so, the harder it will be to bring down the Qin family."

Luo Shihai nodded.

"Dad, are you trying to ruin this whole thing?"

Luo Bin frowned upon hearing this, then said with a puzzled look, "But if a ring-shaped commercial district were really built in Minghai City, it would also benefit our Luo family's Yongheng Real Estate!"

"I didn't say the business district was bad. What I meant was that this business district is viable, but we can't let Yu Xiuqin make it happen."

Luo Shihai glanced at Luo Bin and said in a deep voice.

"what?"

Luo Bin didn't quite understand.

"Bin'er, where does our Luo family's stake lie now?"

Luo Shihai showed enough patience with his son at this moment.

"It must be the Su family. Our fate is intertwined with theirs; we share both prosperity and ruin..."

Luo Bin answered without hesitation, but the next moment he suddenly realized what he meant and looked at Luo Shihai: "Dad, you mean to sabotage this whole thing first, and then let Su Tianyang make it happen?"

"Hehe, that's right! If the Su family ultimately facilitates this, then Su Tianyang will have more merit to back him up. Moreover, think about it, once the business circle is established, countless forces, large and small, will be involved in its chain of interests. And the one who facilitates the business circle is essentially the one who holds the power over these forces! If this woman from the Qin family succeeds, how much support will the Qin family gain for no reason?"

Luo Shihai spoke.

"Does Su Tianyang know about this?"

Luo Bin wasn't stupid; he quickly realized the importance of this matter.

"Of course I know! But even if Su Tianyang knows now, there's nothing he can do, since he's already been imprisoned by Qin Xiao on charges of instructing his son to hire Chuanwu to kill someone."

Luo Shihai looked solemn.

"Damn it, no wonder Qin Xiao wanted to arrest Su Tianyang at this time; so that's what he was up to."

Luo Bin naturally connected the two matters and said resentfully, "If we lock Su Tianyang up, no one will be able to trip up Yu Xiuqin when she's running her business."

"So, this kid from the Qin family is very cunning, and we must not underestimate him. To be honest, we should blame that idiot Su Mingxuan for his stupidity, which gave the Qin family the opportunity. It's no big deal that he died; it's not a pity for an idiot to die. But he ruined the whole scheme that his father, Su Tianyang, had been planning for so long. That's what's most hateful."

Luo Shihai snorted and said, his words also serving as a warning to his son, Luo Bin.

"But Dad, what method do you plan to use to ruin this?"

Luo Bin understood the warning in Luo Shihai's words, so he remained silent and changed the subject.

"You don't need to worry about that!"

Luo Shihai glanced at his son.

"Alright, but Yu Xiuqin is the head of Minghai's investment promotion department. Is it appropriate for Su Tianyang to take that position?"

Luo Bin nodded.

"What's inappropriate about it? A deputy director of the municipal government has accomplished what a minister of investment promotion couldn't. What's the point of having her as the minister of investment promotion? It only makes Yu Xiuqin look useless! The power behind the Su family can use this as an excuse to remove Yu Xiuqin from her position with just a word."

Luo Shihai snorted lightly, then said with a serious expression, "Now that Su Tianyang is locked up, he can't do these things, so I'll have to find a way. With me taking the lead, and with the Feng, Wu, Pang, Fang families, and others who were with you yesterday also stepping forward, it won't be difficult to delay things in the business district. Moreover, I heard that a deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Commerce is going to take this opportunity to come to Minghai for research and inspection."

"What? People from the General Administration of Trade and Economic Cooperation are coming? Holy crap, Dad, what's going on with Minghai? Why are they starting to send big shots to this small place?"

Luo Bin was also shocked when he heard this, as the General Administration of Trade and Economic Cooperation was a very powerful and influential organization.

"How would I know? But one thing is certain: if the people at the General Administration of Trade and Economic Cooperation witness Yu Xiuqin successfully complete the Huancheng business district project, then Yu Xiuqin's contribution will be immense, making it even more difficult to bring down the Qin family."

Luo Shihai said with a grim expression.

"That's right! We absolutely cannot let Yu Xiuqin turn this business district into a success."

Luo Bin realized the seriousness of the situation and said with some resentment, "Although we put the debt on Qin Xiao's mother's head, it's still a bit of a pity that we didn't make that bastard Qin Xiao suffer a little..."

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that. We don't need to do anything. Someone will take care of Qin Xiao."

Luo Shihai smiled.

"Who else could it be? The Su family is definitely too busy to deal with this right now, Dad, stop keeping me in suspense."

Upon hearing this, Luo Bin immediately asked impatiently.

"Have you forgotten the martial arts school behind Chen Zongwen?"

Luo Shihai sneered, "Chen Zongwen was a disciple of a reclusive martial arts family. His opening of a martial arts school in Minghai City was actually a way for his family to make money. Now that Chen Zongwen has been killed by Qin Xiao, do you think those reclusive martial arts families will sit idly by? These reclusive martial artists don't care about worldly laws and regulations!"
