You were put undercover, and you've risen to become the boss.

Chapter 152 Knowing When to Advance and When to Retreat

Wu Zhensheng was truly enraged.

He had publicly announced the military discipline; if his soldiers were to disrupt the proceedings and use their positions to extort money, wouldn't that create chaos?

Of course, if he were to cause trouble at someone else's place and get some money from the owner for cigarettes, that wouldn't be a big deal; they'd just turn a blind eye.

But Zhao Liancheng actually caused trouble at Bailu's place.

This was a gift he gave to Chen Hui on behalf of Ding Tai. Just two days after he gave away the casino, it was smashed up by his allies.

If Ding Tai found out, wouldn't he suspect that he was behind it all?

Moreover, this was a gift sent on behalf of Ding Tai, which was a slap in the face to Ding Tai, and also a slap in the face to him.

Zhao Liancheng said, his voice trembling with tears.

"Commander, I...I didn't mean to! Bai Le detained my brother, that's why I went over there! Commander, please spare my life!"

"Your brother?"

Chen Hui pointed to Zhao Lianjun outside.

"Commander Wu, he's Company Commander Zhao's younger brother. He's the one who caused trouble at my casino and demanded compensation from me!"

Wu Zhensheng's sharp gaze instantly fell on Zhao Lianjun.

"Come in!"

Upon learning Wu Zhensheng's identity, Zhao Lianjun was already terrified, his face turning pale and his legs going weak. He had just stepped onto the stairs when he couldn't stand up and knelt down on the ground.

"Commander Wu, spare my life! I...!"

A fierce glint flashed in Wu Zhensheng's eyes as he stared intently at him.

"You two brothers have some nerve, causing trouble at the Paramount. You're really something!"

"Someone come here!"

Wu Zhensheng shouted angrily, and two guards outside the door immediately stepped forward.

"Take both of them out of here and shoot them!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lianjun and Zhao Liancheng panicked instantly, terrified out of their wits, and immediately kowtowed on the ground, begging for mercy.

"Commander, spare my life!"

"Spare me, Commander!"

Wu Zhensheng gave the two men a cold glare and then looked at the two guards beside him.

"Didn't you hear me? What are you all standing there for? Drag him out and shoot him!"

Two guards immediately went up and began to drag the Zhao brothers.

"Commander, spare my life!"

"Commander Wu!"

Chen Hui then stepped forward and blocked the two brothers.

Wu Zhensheng frowned and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Ahui, what do you mean by this?"

Chen Hui said seriously.

"Commander Wu, although the Zhao brothers made a mistake, I think there must be more to the story. Perhaps they were manipulated. I think we should get to the bottom of this before making any further decisions. Otherwise, wouldn't we be letting the person behind this get away with it? This person should be the one punished the most!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lianjun and Zhao Liancheng were stunned for a moment. Without thinking, Zhao Lianjun blurted out the answer immediately.

"Commander Wu, I was indeed misled. It was all Zhu Qiang's doing. It was Zhu Qiang who sent me to cause trouble in Bailu!"

Wu Zhensheng squinted, staring at the two of them.

"Zhu Qiang? Who is Zhu Qiang? Explain yourself!"

"Zhu Qiang is a thug on Bailu Street. He owns a bar and has a group of men under him. I usually have a good relationship with him, and my brother knows him too."

"He found me today, gave me some money, and told me to go to Baccarat and gamble. After I lose all the money, I should cause trouble for the casino, claiming they cheated and demanding compensation. He said the new owner of Baccarat doesn't have much power, and I've offended him. He asked me to do this for him, and promised to give me more money after it's done. He also said he'd tell my brother...!"

"Commander Wu, it was all him who misled me, it was all this Zhu Qiang's fault!"

"Please forgive me this once, I promise I'll never do it again!"

Wu Zhensheng ignored his words and looked at Chen Hui beside him.

"Ahui, do you have a conflict with this Zhu Qiang?"

Chen Hui nodded.

"Commander Wu, it's really not a big deal. This Zhu Qiang used to collect protection money in Bailu. After I took over, he also came to collect protection money. I couldn't stand it and crippled his men. He said he would shut down my casino. I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect him to be serious!"

Wu Zhensheng's face darkened, and he snorted coldly.

"Hmph, a thug collecting protection money. He probably doesn't even know who Aimo belongs to. This Aimo belongs to my allied forces, not some thug!"

He stared at the guard beside him with a gloomy face.

"Tell Yang Yujiang to take his men over there now and arrest Zhu Qiang!"

"Yes, Commander!"

"etc!"

The guard had just taken a step when Wu Zhensheng called him back again.

"No need to bring him here. Tell Yang Yujiang that after he's caught, take him to the street and shoot him there. Let others see, so they won't cause trouble under my nose!"

"Also, take these two off!"

"Commander, spare my life!"

········

Chen Hui frowned slightly and stepped forward.

"Commander Wu!"

"Ah Hui, is there anything else you want to say?"

"Commander Wu, leave Zhu Qiang to me. This whole thing started because of me and him, and it almost caused me to misunderstand you, Commander Wu. I want to get my revenge too."

"As for the Zhao brothers, I don't think they deserve to die. To be honest, they were just used. My casino didn't suffer any losses. I hope Commander Wu will let them go. I think Company Commander Zhao will learn from this experience!"

"Besides, Company Commander Zhao has served as company commander for so long, and to lose his life over such a trivial matter would not be good for your reputation, Commander Wu!"

Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Wu Zhensheng's eyes, and his gaze toward Chen Hui changed, revealing a great deal of appreciation.

Zhao Liancheng was, after all, one of his allies. It was such a pity that he lost his life over this matter. But Chen Hui was Ding Tai's benefactor, and there were some things he had to do.

If Chen Hui pleads for Zhao Liancheng, that's the best outcome. After all, he's Ding Tai's benefactor, and Ding Tai won't say anything.

He knows when to advance and when to retreat, and he handles everything very well; he is definitely a talented person.

Wu Zhensheng looked at Zhao Liancheng with a disappointed expression and kicked him.

"Since Ah Hui has pleaded for you, we'll let this matter go this time and spare your life. But if you do it again, I'll personally execute you!"

Upon hearing this, the Zhao brothers felt as if they had been granted a pardon and immediately kowtowed.

"Thank you, Commander!"

"Thank you, Commander Wu, for sparing my life!"

"I'll never do it again!"

"Ah Hui pleaded for you, don't thank me, get up!"

The two stood up and bowed deeply to Chen Hui in thanks.

"Thank you so much, Boss Chen!"

"Company Commander Zhao, you're too kind. You were victims too. Next time you come to Bailu, I'll treat you well!"

"Okay, I'll definitely come and support you!"

"Hopefully, Company Commander Zhao won't sabotage my operation next time!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Liancheng felt embarrassed and somewhat ashamed.

"Absolutely not!"
