The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

Her message was clear.

Need help? Sure!

I'll definitely help if I can!

But you can't bring up past favors; what was owed has already been repaid.

In reality, it's hard to say who benefits more from this cooperation!

After spending a lot of time with Ding Xin, she also picked up a bit of his temperament.

She probably wouldn't have spoken like that in the past.

But now, she instinctively retorted.

"Of course, I know very well that this time, I'm only asking for your help as a friend..."

Du Yuanfeng spoke with a smile, seemingly unconcerned about the barbed words from Wu Xiuyan.

Please forgive me...

Wu Xiuyan realized that she had been too direct, so she nodded slightly as a way of expressing her apology.

He said, "If there's anything I can do to help, please feel free to speak up, Chairman..."

"Then I'll just say it directly..."

Du Yuanfeng smiled and said slowly, "Xiuyan, as you know, this old man is getting old and has no children. I just want to earn some money for my retirement. My previous businesses suffered considerable losses because of the trouble caused by those two Yang brothers..."

If Ding Xin were here, he would definitely slap him across the face.

Let's get straight to the point, why are we going off on such a tangent?

But Wu Xiuyan isn't Ding Xin; she certainly doesn't lack patience...

Time passed by minute by minute.

Gradually, she understood what Du Yuanfeng meant.

simply put...

He wanted Wu Xiuyan to secretly help him launder money through the channels of the Jinmen Group.

In fact, under normal circumstances, Wu Xiuyan's help would not be needed, as Kinmen Group itself has money laundering business.

It's just a normal connection; we can all work together!

But what Yuanfeng wanted was different...

He didn't want to cooperate with the Kinmen Group; rather, he wanted to use the Kinmen Group's channels to develop his own money laundering business...

This is what is known as "using someone else's resources to achieve one's own goals".

This kind of betrayal...

......

Chapter 309 Tell the truth

"Mayor, it's not that I don't want to help you..."

Wu Xiuyan frowned, trying her best to express her refusal in a tactful tone: "At Jinmen Group, I'm only responsible for the operation of the film and television company, so please forgive me for being unable to help..."

"Hehe, don't underestimate yourself. Isn't it easier to operate a film and television company?"

Du Yuanfeng chuckled, and before Wu Xiuyan could reply, he said meaningfully, "Xiuyan, speaking of which, I'm probably the person in this world who understands you the most, right?"

Hear the words.

Wu Xiuyan's eyes twitched slightly, and she fell silent.

She realized that Du Yuanfeng, having failed to appeal to her gratitude, was trying a different approach to pressure her, which led to this mistake...

Du Yuanfeng knows Wu Xiuyan's biggest secret.

Therefore, he is naturally the person who understands her best in the world.

That's why...

Wu Xiuyan will only be here today.

She said nothing.

But Du Yuanfeng didn't stop there; he continued speaking at a leisurely pace...

"Xiuyan, you haven't forgotten your hatred, have you?"

I know you're living a comfortable life right now, and it feels good to have someone sheltering you from the storm...

Ding Xin, that kid, does have some ability...

To be honest, your choice of sword and shield is really quite appropriate..."

Speaking of which.

Du Yuanfeng paused for a moment, then threw out a few more questions: "But have you ever thought about this? If this kid knew what you were really like, would he still treat you like this?"

And if I'm not mistaken, you probably haven't told him who your enemy is yet, right?

Think about it carefully. If this kid knew that your enemy was a minister or prosecutor, would he still treat you this well?

Or rather, would he offend such a powerful person for your sake?

Du Yuanfeng speaks very slowly.

A confident and assured demeanor...

But the more Wu Xiuyan listened, the stranger her expression became...

Although Du Yuanfeng's words make a lot of sense.

But that's relative to ordinary people. If we apply that to Ding Xin...

Gradually...

An image involuntarily flashed into Wu Xiuyan's mind...

Our Uncle Ding sat calmly on the sofa, legs crossed, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his face arrogant and unrestrained: "What kind of bullshit minister or prosecutor? Do you think I'm afraid of him? I'm Ding Xin, the man of integrity!"

have to say.

Du Yuanfeng's relentless questioning did not confuse Wu Xiuyan; instead, it made her even more clear-headed.

I've also started trying to sort out some information that I might have overlooked before.

Yes!

All along...

Wu Xiuyan did not tell Ding Xin who her enemy was.

First, she felt the time wasn't right yet.

Secondly, she was indeed a little worried.

But now, she feels like she might be overthinking things.

Who is Ding Xin?

Since she met him, he has always been a domineering man who thinks he is the most important person in the world.

Ministers, prosecutors, and stuff like that...

In Ding Xin's eyes, they were probably no different from clay chickens and earthenware dogs...

Think of this...

Wu Xiuyan felt inexplicably at ease.

She was confident that she couldn't have misjudged Ding Xin.

Even the most rational woman may have a sentimental side. At least in Wu Xiuyan's eyes at this moment, as long as Ding Xin stood by her side, there was nothing to be afraid of.

"President, I understand what you mean..."

Wu Xiuyan took a deep breath, pretending to suppress her anger, and said, "Please understand one thing: I am a businesswoman now, and I don't like businesses that lose money. If you want to do business with me, please offer something that can make me profitable, instead of using threats."

Having regained her composure, Wu Xiuyan has once again embraced her strong, independent woman persona.

She began to tentatively try to get as much information as possible from Du Yuanfeng.

Based on her understanding of Du Yuanfeng.

Since he used threats, there must be some compelling reason for him to do so.

Only by understanding the reasons can we devise targeted countermeasures.

After all, it's not time for her to reveal her identity yet.

Ding Xin probably doesn't care.

However, this doesn't mean that others don't care.

If everyone knew that she had a blood feud with a minister or prosecutor, everything she had built up could vanish in an instant.

This is not alarmist.
