Age: My Small World

The room was a complete mess, with clothes scattered everywhere.

With a slightly rosy complexion, Xu Shanshan leaned lightly against his shoulder, a hint of a smile on her face.

"How did you get here so quickly? I just sent you a telegram two days ago."

"Hehe, I was so worried when I received your letter, so I had to come and check on you as soon as possible. Luckily, you're alright."

Yang Jun wouldn't tell the truth; he only said the good things.

"I don't believe you."

Xu Shanshan didn't believe in these things, but she couldn't resist the sweet words, which made her eyes radiate tenderness.

"By the way, Lei Guan probably won't give up on Junlang Group either, so you should be prepared."

"Don't worry, I knew that guy wouldn't let my company off the hook."

"Hehe, who can blame us for Junlang Group being so outstanding now? Their clothing is not only sold throughout Hong Kong, but has even been exported to other countries. Everyone is envious of your business."

Yang Jun, however, did not take it seriously.

Who says clothes are the most profitable item?
In reality, the real money was made by shipping tycoons who owned docks and ships. For example, a certain richest man decades later started his business with shipping and gradually expanded into many other industries.

To be honest, compared to the businesses of the real big shots, clothing stores are just small fry.

Just take the Xu family for example; the revenue they can generate from real estate and docks far exceeds that of clothing stores.

"Are you alright here? Why would Lei Guan suddenly be interested in the Xu family?"

Besides Junlang Group, Lei Guan is also preparing to take over the Xu family.

This wasn't just wishful thinking on his part. Now that he was in his position, he had many powerful figures behind him who could support him. Many high-ranking officials had also benefited greatly from Lei Guan and were naturally willing to help him.

The Xu family is an unattainable force in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of those foreigners, they are insignificant. Perhaps in their view, these people are just gloves they have trained, and it would be easy to discard them.

Of course, the Xu family and their ilk are not to be underestimated. While Lei Guan's ability to bribe a group of people in a short period of time is impressive, what about the Xu family? They have been in Hong Kong for decades and have powerful backers as well.

That's why Lei Guan has been hesitant to make a move; the two sides are now just one step away from a direct confrontation.

However, given the Xu family's current situation, there is no way to stop Lei Guan anymore. After all, he has gathered all the gangs together, and even the Xu family's business at the docks is now severely affected.

"It's that old codger Du Zhong who actually colluded with Lei Guan, targeting my Xu family. The two of them just want to wipe the Xu family out of everything."

"Hehe, it seems that Du Zhong thinks he can run rampant just because he has a chief detective's son-in-law. He's not afraid of raising a tiger that will eventually become a threat. Lei Guan is not really going to be his scapegoat."

Yang Jun thought about Lei Guan's appearance in his memory. He always seemed to be humble under Lei Bao's care. Just from this, Yang Jun knew that this guy was not stupid. Moreover, under his management, Hong Kong City has completely taken on a different look.

It can be said that Lei Guan is exactly the type of person who eats people without spitting out the bones.

"It's unlikely that he's raising a tiger to cause trouble, but I heard that Lei Guan treats his wife very well and dotes on her. He seems to be a pure-hearted man."

Yang Jun scoffed, "Do you think Lei Guan, who can turn Hong Kong upside down and is now taking action against two major groups, is someone who can be swayed by emotions?"

Women are sometimes too emotional, so they tend to overlook some people's fundamental issues.

Yang Jun, however, understood that Lei Guan was likely a man of feeling, but one who was never swayed by emotions. Otherwise, he wouldn't have pushed his uncle to the position of leader of the Loyalty Hall, ultimately indirectly forcing Lei Bao to his death. Xu Shanshan raised an eyebrow: "So, according to you, Lei Guan might not only be after our Xu family and your Junlang Group, but also the Du family?"

"I'm just guessing, but things should change in a few days anyway."

It seems that Yang Jun will be sending Lei Guan and Dong Xing's group to hell in just a few days, starting tomorrow night.

The next day.

Before Yang Jun could even make a move, he heard a piece of news on the news.

"Mr. Du accidentally fell into the swimming pool and drowned? That's such an exaggerated story, does anyone believe it?"

Du Zhong's death was too sudden, especially at this critical juncture.

The key issue is that although Du Zhong has a son, his son is only three or four years old. If they were to wait for him to grow up and take over the Du family's assets, the Du family would have already fallen apart.

So the news spread that Du Zhong's eldest daughter, Du Mingyu, was the one who ultimately took over the Du family business.

What difference is there between the Du family being in the hands of Du Mingyu and the Du family being in the hands of Lei Guan?

Yang Jun was having a hearty lunch by the roadside when he heard the news.

He had absolutely no self-control in the port city. He always ate the best and most delicious food in large quantities, which led many restaurants to call him a big eater. One restaurant even wanted to launch a big eater competition centered around him to generate advertising revenue, but he refused to participate, even with the prize money.

"Boss, is it packed up yet?"

Not only did Yang Jun plan to eat some himself, but he also intended to bring some back for the girls to try.
"Okay, I'll pay here."

After paying, Yang Jun walked out with a nonchalant air.

When they reached a secluded spot, they would casually put the food into their little world and then head in one direction.

The Du family—no, they should now be called the Lei family.

In the mourning hall, which was already draped in white mourning clothes, a young girl and a toddler were kneeling in front of a portrait, kowtowing to the guests who had come to offer incense.

Next to him was Lei Guan, dressed in a black suit.

Unlike Yang Jun's initial impression of him as a refined and cultured man, Lei Guan now resembled an eagle, his eyes constantly sharp as he watched his surroundings, seemingly searching for an escape route at any moment.

By the time Yang Jun arrived at the mourning hall, most of the people had already arrived, including many prominent figures.

Xu Shanshan, who had just parted ways that morning, also appeared at the scene with an elderly man with gray hair. Beside the elderly man was a group of close security guards, who was obviously Xu Youzhi, the current head of the Xu family.

Xu Youzhi is nearing sixty, but he is in good spirits and seems to be able to live to eighty with ease.

His purpose in coming here was to discuss the matter between the Xu family and Lei Guan with Lei Guan. Of course, it would be best if they could resolve it peacefully.

Unfortunately, when Yang Jun saw the table overturned, he knew the talks had fallen through.

He wasn't surprised, after all, Lei Guan's arrogant demeanor was already evident, and his uncompromising nature was to be unyielding.

Xu Youzhi left with a livid face. (End of Chapter)
