"If Master Jia could serve as a protector for our Liu Family, we would indeed have a guardian deity," Liu Toukang thought for a moment, feeling that Jiang Chen's strength might not truly match up to Jia Xingliang, which gave him a bit more confidence.
"Day after tomorrow, Master Jia will be competing against a Feng Shui Master from Southeast Asia. He will invite some people to watch, and we should go see it. I've heard that Master Jia's Feng Shui skills have reached an extraordinary level," Han Baiying said.
"That would be best. If I can witness Master Jia's Feng Shui prowess firsthand, I should be able to determine who is stronger between Master Jia and Mr. Jiang. If Master Jia is indeed stronger than Mr. Jiang, then I won't have to fear him anymore," Liu Toukang replied.
Jiang Chen and Ding Yan returned to the hotel and quickly washed up before going to bed. However, that night, many found it hard to sleep.
The Liu Family, Li Xiyun, the Bride's Mother, as well as Zhao Hun from Aodao and Ding Yan's Father, Ding Shaowen, were all restless. As wealthy individuals from Aodao, they naturally came to congratulate the Liu Family on their joyous occasion. Earlier in the crowd, they had witnessed Jiang Chen's impressive demeanor and had quietly shrunk back.
Especially when they saw Lin Shuang, the Underground Boss from Hong Kong Island, treating Jiang Chen with respect; this made Zhao Hun feel uneasy. Yet he remained undeterred and hurriedly called Master Wu after returning to the hotel.
On that day in Aodao, Jiang Chen had injured both Zhao Hun and Master Wu in the hotel. Master Wu was a disciple of Elder Liang, a Martial Arts Grandmaster from Hong Kong Island. He had been brooding over that humiliation and was eager for revenge. Upon hearing that Jiang Chen was in Hong Kong Island, he was overjoyed.
"President Zhao, it seems like a heavenly opportunity has presented itself! That kid truly is reckless; he dares to come to Hong Kong Island," Master Wu exclaimed on the other end of the line upon learning of Jiang Chen's presence.
"So when can we ask Elder Liang to take action?" Zhao Hun cautiously inquired. He had great confidence in Master Wu's master, believing that if Elder Liang intervened, he could certainly teach Jiang Chen a lesson.
"My master has been feeling unwell these past few days; it's just a minor injury and he'll recover soon. For now, keep an eye on that kid and don’t let him leave Hong Kong Island. I’ll speak to my master about it tomorrow," Master Wu replied.
"However, Master Wu, that kid knows Lin Shuang from the Azure Green Society and has ties with the Liu Family," Zhao Hun expressed his concerns.
"Enough! This is our martial arts matter; outsiders have no right to interfere. Just wait; once I report to my master, it will be the end for that kid," Master Wu interrupted angrily.
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Hun smirked coldly, feeling confident in Master Wu's words. What he didn't know was that Elder Liang had nearly died at Jiang Chen's hands just days prior. Last time, Jiang Chen had merely thrown him out of a window; if he dared to provoke Jiang Chen again this time, he would meet a far worse fate. Moreover, Zhao Hun himself would also face dire consequences—no one would come to his aid, even though he was currently married to Ding Yan's mother.
That night felt both long and short.
Jiang Chen slept soundly.
The next day, Liu Toukang sent a car to the hotel to pick up Jiang Chen for a visit to his company. This was something Jiang Chen had requested before leaving the night prior; Liu Toukang dared not refuse and obediently sent a car. Jiang Chen went alone.
The Zijin Building is located in the bustling area of Hong Kong Island and is entirely owned by the Liu Family; it serves as the headquarters for their enterprises.
