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

Upon hearing the words "Northern Shan State," everyone paused for a moment before realizing that these were Zuo Min's people.

Suddenly it dawned on him that Chen Hui had taken over the Butcher's territory and become the Butcher. It was all Zuo Min's arrangement, and Zuo Min was supporting him from behind.

No wonder he rose to prominence overnight.

Many people were puzzled as to why Zuo Min would support him. After all, Chen Hui was only in his early twenties, just a young man. Wasn't she worried at all that he would mess things up?

Sun Haiyang knew some inside information, but he never expected that Zuo Min wanted to support Chen Hui as her spokesperson.

Chen Hui glanced at the three of them, his harmless smile still on his lips, and slowly said while holding Xu Qingyan's soft little hand.

"Now it's just the three of you. Are you willing to work with me, or do you choose to go it alone and leave, like Zheng Kai did back then?"

"I don't like to force others, so you should never force yourselves either."

Upon hearing this, the three of them trembled, their eyes filled with apprehension.

Is this what you call not liking to force others?

The three of them knew perfectly well what had happened to Zheng Kai. It was said that his whole family had disappeared, but in reality, they had all died at the hands of Chen Hui.

It's clearly a blatant threat; do they have a choice?

After a moment of silence, Sun Haiyang spoke first.

"Brother Hui, I'm willing to work for you!"

Chen Hui looked at him with a smile.

"Old Sun, are you telling the truth? I just said I don't like to force people!"

"Not at all, not at all!"

Chen Hui then looked at the other two.

"What about you? Will you work for me, or do you want to go it alone?"

The other two, whose status in the butcher gang was somewhat lower than that of Sun Haiyang and Lu Wei, exchanged a glance and nodded when they saw that Sun Haiyang had agreed.

"Brother Hui, we'll work for you too!"

With Zuo Min backing them up, how could they dare to disagree?

Lu Wei and Ma Kui are examples of this. They were the Butcher's absolute confidants back then, but now only Sun Haiyang remains. They are considered rising stars, and the Butcher's old forces have been completely wiped out.

"Okay, you two go back first. I'll contact you if I need anything."

"Okay, Brother Hui!"

The two dared not show any dissatisfaction and turned to leave the office.

Sun Haiyang's eyes flickered a few times before he tentatively asked.

"Brother Hui, what about Ma Kui and Lu Wei...?"

Chen Hui looked at him.

"You don't need to worry about their affairs. Zuo Min wants to see both of them; do you want to see Zuo Min too?"

Sun Haiyang quickly shook his head; he didn't want to see Zuo Min.

Chen Hui now represents Zuo Min in Yangcheng. Ma Kui and Lu Wei took him to see Zuo Min, and the outcome was predictable.

Is Zuo Min so easy to meet?

A chill ran down his spine. Luckily, when he was bailed out of the police station, he knew it was Zuo Min's arrangement. Otherwise, he might have been just like Ma Kui and Lu Wei, resentful of Chen Hui.

Seeing his expression, Chen Hui revealed a satisfied look and said meaningfully.

"Old Sun, one should be grateful. Zuo Min said he hates ungrateful people. You were the one he got out of the police station."

Upon hearing this, Sun Haiyang was stunned for a moment, his body trembled slightly, and he quickly replied.

"Brother Hui, I understand. I am definitely not the kind of ungrateful person."

"That's good. Old Sun, of the old guys from back then, only you and I are left. Keep up the good work, and I promise you won't be treated unfairly!"

"Don't worry, Brother Hui, I'll do whatever you ask me to do from now on!"

Chen Hui nodded.

"Okay, then you go back first and keep a close eye on the place for the next few days."

"Okay, Brother Hui, I'll head back now."

Sun Haiyang showed him exceptional respect at this moment, bowing slightly before leaving the office.

Once only Chen Hui and Xu Qingyan remained in the office, her expression changed slightly, and she turned to the side and asked quietly.

"Will Peng Ying kill them? Should you stop her?"

Chen Hui shook his head and said quietly.

"I can't interfere with how Peng Ying deals with the two of them. It would arouse suspicion. Do you really think I'm some kind of big shot? I'm just a puppet now, to put it bluntly, a dog. I may look glamorous, but I can't have my own thoughts."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan rolled her eyes. What kind of talk was this? He was describing himself as a dog. If he was a dog, then what was she?

However, she also understood that what Chen Hui said was true, and everything had to be done according to Zuo Min's wishes.

Peng Yingming is nominally one of his men, but in reality, he is Zuo Min's man. He cannot interfere in these matters.

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly felt something sliding on her thigh. She stood up abruptly and stared at Chen Hui with a look of shame and indignation.

"You scoundrel! There's nobody around, and you're still trying to take advantage of me."

Chen Hui looked completely innocent, on the verge of tears.

"Big sister, please don't wrong me! I didn't even lift a finger!"

Xu Qingyan's beautiful eyes widened as she glared angrily.

"Who are you calling 'big sister'? You didn't move, so what was that thing just now?"

"No, that's an instinctive reaction, okay? I'm not a eunuch, it's a man's instinctive reaction."

"It would be abnormal if I didn't react at all, given that such a beautiful woman like you has been sitting on my lap for so long. Besides, that would be disrespectful to you!"

Xu Qingyan was stunned for a moment when she heard this. She subconsciously looked at a certain part of his body, and then suddenly realized something. Her pretty face turned red with embarrassment and anger.

"You scoundrel!"

She wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground and stormed out of the office.

"How am I being considered a hooligan?"

Chen Hui looked helpless.

As soon as Xu Qingyan left, Peng Ying walked in, looking puzzled.

"Brother Hui, what's wrong with your wife? Did you two have a fight?"

"Women, it's normal to have a few bad days."

"oh!"

Chen Hui looked at him.

"What did you do to Ma Kui and Lu Wei?"

"They've been sent over. Zuo Min gave the order that anyone who dares to object should be sent directly over."

"Oh, it seems those two aren't coming back."

"That's hard to say. No one can predict what Zuo Min does."

"By the way, Brother Hui, Zuo Min said he found out about your wife's situation and specially sent you a surprise."

"What surprise?"

"I don't know either. You'll find out when we get back to the villa tonight."

Zuo Min, that old fox, is giving me a surprise? What kind of surprise? As long as it's not a shock, that's fine. I shrug my shoulders, not wanting to dwell on it.

"By the way, Lao Peng, go tell Sun Haiyang later to spread the word in the underworld that the Yangcheng flour market is mine. From now on, no matter how much or how little they need, they have to buy from me!"

Peng Ying nodded.

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."

Sending Peng Ying to handle it was also to give Sun Haiyang another warning.
