Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

There is a hotel in downtown Baghdad called the Olive Tree Hotel, a newly opened five-star hotel.

at this time,

Liu Chuanren sat in the top-floor presidential suite, leisurely sipping red wine while making a phone call.

Then Liu Chuanren said, "Old man, don't worry. I have already given Deng Zhi an ultimatum. General Mohank is also putting pressure on Deng Zhi. Unless Deng Zhi doesn't want the many properties in Iraq, he has to agree to my demands. He either has to hand over the 'Sky Arbiter System' to me or sell me all the properties in Iraq at a 30% discount. No matter what he chooses, I will make a profit."

"Hahaha, Deng Zhi is at his wit's end."

"If nothing unexpected happens, then the accident has already occurred."

On the other end of the phone was Liu Shiyuan, the head of the Liu family.

Then Liu Shiyuan said, "Chuanren, you mustn't do anything rash. Although the Deng family's influence is not as great as before, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Moreover, the Deng family has a large group of partners around them, all of whom are old men who went to the battlefield with Old Master Deng and have a life-and-death relationship with him. Especially that old bastard Xiao Huai'an, he is definitely the most ruthless person in the capital. Back then, he attacked me with a single word. If Old Master Deng hadn't intervened in time, I'm afraid my old life would have been broken long ago."

Liu Chuanren took a sip of red wine, a playful smile playing on his lips, and said, "Old man, don't worry. Times have changed. Now, neither Deng Zhi nor Xiao Zhan, nor the forces behind them, can compare to me, Liu."

Liu Shiyuan: "Chuanren, be careful in everything you do and never be careless. You can't let your guard down until you're 100% sure of success. Remember, either don't make a move, or if you do, make sure it kills him. If you can't kill someone like Deng Zhi, he'll retaliate. That's a cardinal sin in warfare."

"There's a saying that the most skilled hunter often appears in the form of the prey. Chuanren, think carefully about what I'm saying."

"Beep beep beep".

Just then, the cell phone on the coffee table rang. Seeing that it was General Mohank, Liu Chuanren stood up from the sofa, downed his glass of red wine in one gulp, and said confidently, "Grandpa, I understand. Just wait for my good news!"

"General Mohank called; there must be good news."

at the same time,

Another five-star hotel in Baghdad.

Xiao Zhan sat opposite Deng Zhi and Deng Ying, a cigarette dangling from his lips, looking like a thug. He grinned and said, "Deng Ying, I understand what you're saying, but reality isn't a movie. Heroes often end in tragedy. To prevent the Deng and Xiao families from being attacked from above, we must retaliate, and do it thoroughly. You need to understand that if we don't kill him, he'll kill us. On the way back just now, your older brother was almost killed by the mercenaries hired by Liu Chuanren. Liu Zhihong and another person died in battle. This is bloody slaughter!"

Deng Ying already knew that her elder brother had been ambushed halfway there...

Deng Ying frowned and said worriedly, "But once we retaliate, neither side will have any room for maneuver. Moreover, this is Iraq, and our main forces are not here. Liu Chuanren has General Mohankde helping him. As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. What can we use to fight against them now?"

"Cough cough."

Deng Zhi coughed twice, stood up, and walked to the window. Gazing at the night view of Baghdad, he frowned and said, "My original plan was to hold more than twenty cooperation talks with the Baghdad municipal government, but they have all been forced to be canceled because of Liu Chuanren. These changes all reveal one thing: after failing to stop us in Syria, Liu Chuanren will go all out against us in Baghdad. Now, from high-end economic and trade exchanges to the most ordinary restaurants and supermarkets, everything is silently telling the same story. The once warm atmosphere between us and Baghdad is rapidly cooling down, and the root of all this is the Liu family."

"In fact, every choice we make, every experience we have in dealing with things, ultimately contributes to the true temperature of the tide of the times. The captain of the ship is always the first to feel the change in the water temperature. Sometimes, knowing how to go with the flow in the face of the great waves of history requires more courage and wisdom than going against the current."

Although Deng Zhi's words were quite philosophical...

But their stance remained resolute. Without killing Liu Chuanren, it was impossible to turn the tide in Baghdad. Only by eliminating him, by forcefully tearing open a gap, could they find a path to light out of their predicament…

Deng Ying fell silent. She wasn't the decision-maker, but she was worried that if the Deng family and the Liu family were to fight each other, the result would be mutual destruction. She feared that if the two families fought, a third party would benefit.

Xiao Zhan threw his cigarette butt into the ashtray and said, "It's impossible to retract the order now. If nothing unexpected happens, Liu Chuanren should be in trouble."

Deng Zhi glanced at the time and said calmly, "The domestic authorities should begin taking action. The Liu family will cease to exist before dawn."

Deng Ying, unaware that Deng Zhi had already instructed his people back home to launch an operation against the Liu family, exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this, "Who can touch Old Master Liu? Brother, please don't act rashly!"

Deng Zhi glanced at Deng Ying and said, "Don't worry, I have dirt on Old Master Liu and the Liu family, whether they're in government or business. They just don't know it. I haven't let a word out all these years, just waiting for this day to come, because I know the Deng family and the Liu family will have a showdown sooner or later!"

Xiao Zhan was shocked to hear Deng Zhi speak like that. It seemed that Deng Zhi was even more cunning and treacherous than he had imagined. He had long since grasped the Liu family's weakness. The sad thing was that the Liu family was unaware of this. Otherwise, Liu Chuanren would not have been so arrogant and domineering.

It seems I need to be more careful in the future.

at this time,

In the hotel, Liu Chuanren put down the phone, no longer looking as radiant as before, but rather quite dejected and uneasy.

General Mohank told him that his attack on Deng Zhi by a squad of ten mercenaries he had hired for ten million dollars had failed and was instead wiped out by Xiao Zhan.

"Thud!"

Liu Chuanren lit a cigar, took several deep drags, and inhaled the thick smoke into his lungs. The lungs contain numerous alveoli with a large surface area and abundant capillaries. Nicotine diffuses directly into the bloodstream through the alveolar walls; studies have found that nicotine can reach the brain in as little as 7 seconds. Liu Chuanren wanted to make his brain clear and alert.

Liu Chuanren raised his head, his two cold glints filled with murderous intent, and called out in a deep voice, "Guards!"

"What are your orders, young master?"

A middle-aged man pushed open the door and came in, asking respectfully.

Liu Chuanren: "Continue to issue bounties on the dark web. This time, add Xiao Zhan and increase the bounty to 50 million. Pay half upfront, and the remaining amount upon completion of the mission with the heads of the two targets."

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said cautiously, "Young Master, the old master said we can't touch Xiao Zhan."

Liu Chuanren rolled his eyes and roared, "Xiao Zhan has already broken ties with my Liu family and completely sided with Deng Zhi. We can only kill them both. That's fine too. As long as Deng Zhi and Xiao Zhan are dead, all the wealthy and noble families in the capital will become my Liu family's vassals."

The middle-aged man's eyes flickered a few times, hesitating to speak, then cupped his hands and said, "I'll make the arrangements right away."

Just as the middle-aged man turned to leave, Liu Chuanren called out, "Wait a minute."

The man stopped and looked at Liu Chuanren.

Liu Chuanren grinned and said, "Go and call Shirley over."

Man: "It's the young master."

A short while later.

Shirley, dressed very lightly, entered the room and said in a sweet voice, "Young Master Liu, what brings you here so late?"

Liu Chuanren's lecherous eyes lingered on the deep, white cleavage between Shirley's breasts. He licked his thick lips and bluntly said, "I'm going to fuck you!"
