Jiang Yuanmao's face was no longer livid, but a little purple.
He would never have dreamed that a good birthday party would turn into this situation.
The shady things he had done before were not only uncovered one by one and put in front of everyone, but some of them were not closely related to him, or the dirty information they knew had been disclosed in advance. The guy who went out even started to make up random stories about his misdeeds in order to get away.
The stories became more and more outrageous. Things like Jiang Huishou and his eldest daughter-in-law picking up ashes came up. Jiang Yuanmao was so angry that he almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage and died on the spot.
He stared with red eyes, trying to find the person who spread the rumor. However, after looking around, he saw that all his former friends were now scrambling to say bad things about him. He was afraid that if he didn't behave actively, he would be the one facing him. That Feng Jiulang will attack them.
Jiang Yuanmao suddenly realized that there was no point in finding the person he was looking for, because the people in front of him clearly looked alike.
And his heart became colder and colder.
It's not because he has a clear understanding of human relationships. In fact, after so many years of ups and downs in the business world, how could he not know that the people who come to celebrate his birthday tonight are almost all people who are in favor of others?
These people can come to greet him when he is standing on the top of the mountain, and they can also step on him when he falls to the bottom.
Therefore, Jiang Yuanmao's cold heart was not because of these people's betrayal of him, but because he realized that even if he could survive tonight, he would never be able to sit down at the head of the chamber of commerce again.
Not only that, most of the connections and connections he had worked so hard to accumulate over decades were no longer useful, and these people had turned from his friends into his enemies.
If he wants to make a comeback in the future, these people will not only not support him, but will also try their best to stop him because they are worried about the retaliation that will follow. Therefore, the best result for him is to sell off his property, leave Kyoto forever, and find a place that no one knows about. A place to spend your remaining years.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuanmao couldn't help but look up and glance at Gu Caiwei, who had been silent during this period of time, just like a pure spectator, watching with cold eyes.
Jiang Yuanmao couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity in his heart. He originally wanted to make this woman a target tonight, and use the power of the Qianyuan Chamber of Commerce to drive her out of the capital and complete King Yun's explanation, but he did not expect that the two of them would end up in the wrong place. But they all changed inexplicably.
Jiang Yuanmao withdrew his gaze from Gu Caiwei and turned to Lu Jing beside her.
The latter seemed to be a little distracted at the moment. He didn't listen to the shouts of the guests anymore, and just carelessly stroked the black cat in his arms.
Jiang Yuanmao moved his lips and said in an almost hoarse voice, "You...who are you...?"
Although the restaurant was very noisy at this time, Lu Jing still heard Jiang Yuanmao's words and shook his head.
"I don't belong to anyone. I'm different from you. I don't have to take orders from anyone."
"You lied... I have no grievances against you... If you weren't instigated by others, why did you have to let me... be ruined?!" Jiang Yuanmao almost squeezed out these words through his teeth.
"To correct you, it's not me who ruined your reputation, but the things you did that ruined your reputation," Lu Jing said seriously, "As for me, just think of me as... your heavenly punishment."
After Lu Jing said the last words, he felt that the second time was a bit overwhelming, but in fact, his words were not meant for Jiang Yuanmao, but for the man on the roof.
The purpose was to distance himself from Gu Caiwei. As Jiang Yuanmao said, there must be a reason why he made this place such a mess.
Since he couldn't say anything for Gu Caiwei's sake, Lu Jing had no choice but to take the road of acting for Tian Xingdao and make a temporary guest appearance as the Lintian Mansion's Batman.
The look on Jiang Yuanmao's face was still doubtful, but before he spoke again, a voice came from his ear, "That's enough, shut up."
Before he finished speaking, a large hole was made on the roof with a scabbard, and then a muscular figure wearing a Pegasus suit, with his hair tied around his waist, and black boots jumped out of the big hole.
When they saw that person, some of the guests in the restaurant immediately burst into tears as if they were seeing a savior, and some even couldn't help but cheer.
This is because - the experts from the Imperial City Division have finally arrived.
But when they saw the master's appearance clearly, the people who had cheered before gradually stopped talking.
Because the visitor is actually a woman, and she doesn't look too old, but she looks like she is in her early twenties. Her eyes are as crescent-shaped, making people wonder if she got in through some back door. Imperial City Division.
However, the Crescent Moon girl showed no fear when facing Lu Jing. She raised her waist badge and said, "Imperial City Detective Si Qiyun is here. This farce of your Excellency should end."
Lu nodded and said, "Yeah, I happened to be a little tired from playing and was ready to leave."
Qi Yun shook his head, "You can't leave."
"Why?"
"Someone just reported the case, saying that you secretly broke into Jiang Hui's birthday party, defeated a group of escorts he hired, and an incense owner from the Changle Gang, and then detained a group of guests in the restaurant, violating the general rules. Chen Lu, I want to invite you to visit the Imperial City Division."
"Master Qi has been here for a while. Didn't you hear how everyone was talking about Jiang Huishou? He left such a bad guy without arrest, but came to embarrass me who has done nothing. Don't you think there is no distinction between priority and priority? ?"
"One code is the same. Our Imperial City Division specializes in dealing with people in the martial arts world, while ordinary people are generally handed over to Dali Temple or Lintian Mansion Yamen for trial."
Qi Yun paused for a moment before adding, "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to report the dirty things Jiang Huishou has done to the governor, but if you want to, you still have to go back to the Imperial City with me." Don’t worry, it’s not a big deal, and we won’t make things difficult for you.”
"What if I don't go?" Lu Jing sighed.
Qi Yun didn't seem surprised by this. He blinked and said seriously, "No, you will definitely go."
After she said this, Lu Jing suddenly felt a sense of crisis that he had not seen for a long time.
This sense of crisis does not come from Qi Yun, but from the long street outside the window.
Lu Jing didn't hesitate and immediately jumped through the window to escape. But as soon as he took his front foot forward, a fist flew out from behind him.
That punch didn't look fancy, and it wasn't very fast, but because of the perfect timing, Lu Jing couldn't avoid it.
So Lu Jing turned around and also punched.
The next moment, the two fists collided together, and there was no earth-shaking sound. On the contrary, it was very quiet.
It's similar to the sound of fallen leaves falling from the sky to the ground.
But only the two people who punched knew about the huge waves hidden underneath.
It was also the first time that Lu Jing met someone whose inner strength was half as powerful as his own, and the other person's inner energy was continuous and full of vitality.
A name immediately appeared in Lu Jing's mind.
So he couldn't help but start to feel itchy.
This guy felt like he was more suitable to use up his internal energy than Yan Yun, but Lu Jing immediately had to press down on this very tempting idea.
No, he was still carrying Feng Jiulang's ID. If he really had a fight with the guy in front of him, it would probably take only a few moves for the opponent to see through his true identity.
We can only do it again next time, Lu Jing thought regretfully, not willing to fight, he suddenly used his internal strength to the extreme, shook the opponent's fist away, and at the same time, he also used the force to fly to the roof, and disappeared under the eaves with the black cat. back.
The man who was fighting with Lu Jing also stopped his hand when he saw this. After landing, he just stood there and did not take any further steps to pursue him.
Qi Yun also jumped down from the restaurant at this time, and first raised his hands to the man, "Gang Leader Li, how could he escape?"
"That guy is also top-notch," the man shrugged, "You know, light kung fu is not my strong point."
"Gang Leader Li, you are too humble." Qi Yun smiled bitterly. She was a little dissatisfied with the man's obviously perfunctory explanation, but there was nothing she could do about it. This man was just a master she invited to help her. She could not command him like she commanded her subordinates. .
Moreover, no one in this world can command and touch him.
Because he is Li Bufan, the leader of the Changle Gang, the number one gang in the world. He was already one of the top masters in the world as early as sixteen years ago.
Li Bufan said to Qi Yun, "Qi Ganban doesn't have to be so serious about everything. That Feng Jiulang just fought off the group of bodyguards and the incense master in my gang who attacked him, and he didn't hurt anyone again after that. Why do we have to catch him?”
Qi Yun sighed, "Gang Leader Li, there are many first-rate masters in the world. Suddenly someone who has never heard of him appeared in Kyoto. How could the Imperial City Secretary not care about such a thing? We have no intention of doing anything to him." , I just want to ask about his origin and purpose."
"Didn't you hear the purpose? Didn't he call himself Heavenly Punishment?"
Qi Yun was speechless, "He is a punishment from heaven, so what do our Imperial City Department and Dali Temple mean to us?"
"Well... no matter what, it's always a good thing that he behaves decently."
"That's not certain. I see that he is arrogant and unscrupulous in his actions. There is no guarantee that he will not cause any trouble in the future. Forget it, he has already run away. We can only talk about it next time." Qi Although Yun was a little unwilling, he could only say helplessly.
