Chapter 162
“Hit them! Beat them up first.” Li Fei instructed after everyone was brought in.
“Ah!”
“Ahh!!”
Following Li Fei’s command, these punks immediately started screaming in agony.
Moreover, Li Fei’s men went all out, hanging these people up and beating them; it was truly gruesome.
“Enough!” Seeing that it was about right, Li Fei signaled to stop.
“Speak up, where did you hide the jadeite you stole?” At the same time, Li Fei walked in front of these punks and asked coldly.
“Huh? Jadeite?” Hearing Li Fei’s words, these punks looked confused.
“Playing dumb? Are you looking to die?” Furious at their response, Li Fei bellowed, “I’ll ask one more time, you robbed xx Transport Company of a batch of jadeite worth over six billion, where did you put it?”
“Boss, we’re innocent, we just took some scrap stones and dumped them at XX warehouse.” Hearing Li Fei’s words, the punks were almost in tears, regretting their decisions.
If they had known such a powerful figure was involved, they wouldn’t have dared to rob.
Now they were caught without any jadeite to show for it, feeling utterly cursed.
“Do you think I’m an idiot? Is your skin itching? Beat them.” Seeing them not speaking honestly, Li Fei shouted an order.
Under his command, his men continued to lash out, and the punks howled in pain once more.
“Boss, we’re innocent, the stuff is at XX warehouse, go check if you don’t believe us!” The leading punk cried out, desperate.
“Go check it out!” Hearing his words, Li Fei instructed.
After some time, Li Fei’s men returned with a report: “Boss, we checked, there’s nothing there.”
Actually, the place had long been discovered by the transport king’s people. Seeing only boxes and scrap stones, they assumed the punks had taken the jadeite and left the junk behind, so they cleared it out.
“Dare to mess with me? I’ll beat you to death.” Hearing his crew’s report, Li Fei became even more furious.
Under Li Fei’s signal, his men intensified the torture.
…
Meanwhile, the transport king obtained news of the robbers’ capture.
Upon hearing Li Fei and the Hong Family had joined forces and caught the robbers in just over an hour, he realized Fengxue Jewelry Company was no pushover; there must be terrifying figures behind them.
However, he felt somewhat relieved that the robbers were caught, thinking they might recover the jadeite.
“Quick, I need to see Li Fei.” He ordered his crew, then directly went to find Li Fei to assess the situation.
He was looking to gauge the situation and curry favor with Li Fei, knowing that ultimately it was his fault, and he needed Fengxue Jewelry’s forgiveness.
Whatever conditions they had, he was ready to discuss.
…
Li Fei was still fuming when his men came in and reported: “The transport king wants to see you.”
“A useless failure, lost Mr. Ye’s goods and still has the nerve to show up?” After grumbling, Li Fei instructed, “Bring him in.”
Soon after, his men returned with the transport king.
“Mr. Li, thank you for helping me catch the robbers, I’m extremely grateful.” Upon entering the interrogation room, the transport king expressed his flattery.
“Hmph!” Li Fei snorted displeasedly, “You lost Mr. Ye’s goods, you’re doomed.”
“Ah?” The transport king inwardly panicked at Li Fei’s words.
Realizing the situation, the transport king hurriedly asked, “Didn’t you catch the robbers? Didn’t they say where the jadeite is?”
“They’re keeping their mouths shut, couldn’t get anything out of them.” Li Fei answered with irritation.
“I’ll try!” Seeing an opportunity arise with the robbers not talking, the transport king volunteered and approached the punks.
Glaring at the punks, the transport king was livid: “You bastards dare to mess with my stuff, you must be tired of living. I’ll make you see my wrath.”
But no matter how the transport king torture them, the punks couldn’t say anything useful.
Inside, they felt the most wronged. They truly hadn’t seen the jadeite, so what could they say? They deeply regretted their choices.
…
By the time Ye Feng arrived, the robbers were already on the brink of death.
“Mr. Ye!” Seeing Ye Feng, Li Fei immediately approached him and greeted respectfully.
“Is this… the legendary Mr. Ye? The legendary Young Grandmaster?” Seeing Ye Feng, the transport king was shocked and quickly went up to flatter respectfully: “Mr. Ye, sorry for making you come here.”
“You lost my goods, what do you propose?” Ye Feng looked at the transport king and asked with a smile.
“Ah? Those are your goods?” Hearing Ye Feng, the transport king jumped up, knowing it was trouble.
“Compensate, transport king.” Li Fei turned and mocked.
“I’ll compensate!” the transport king chuckled bitterly, quickly agreeing.
Facing a heavyweight like Ye Feng, could he not compensate?
Even compensating the original price would be a loss for Ye Feng’s jewelry company.
Precisely aware of this, he felt anxious.
If Ye Feng was agreeable, he might just pay the original price; if he wasn’t, things could get complicated.
“You and these folks together compensate me sixty-eight billion, I won’t ask for more.” Seeing the transport king agree, Ye Feng signaled.
“Sure, I’ll definitely compensate.” Although the transport king’s heart was bleeding, he had to comply.
“Alright, I’ll leave these people to you,” Ye Feng said once the transport king agreed, and left.
Ye Feng wasn’t worried about this guy reneging, unless he had a death wish.
“Hurry and prepare the money, you’re lucky Mr. Ye is easy-going, or you’d be in trouble.” After Ye Feng left, Li Fei warned before following him out.
“Take these people away.” Though they hadn’t found out the jadeite’s whereabouts, the transport king wasn’t content, wanting to get the info to minimize losses.
That night, Ye Feng stayed in Xiyun, planning to fly back the next morning.
At that time, Ye Feng could not only get over sixty billion but also bring the jadeite back for Liu Xue, feeling content.
…
Meanwhile, Liu Xue had just returned home and discovered a group of uninvited guests.
Indeed, upon arriving home, Liu Xue found Mrs. Liu Sr. with all the Liu Family members there.
Before Liu Xue entered, her family was chatting and laughing with them, seemingly having a lively conversation.
The Liu Family had come to ask Liu Xue to return, and it seemed Liu Xue’s family had already been persuaded….
