Gao Wu: I'll enjoy the benefits, but you'll bear the side effects.

In that room where the atmosphere was tense and hostile.

Xu Wenfeng's face was full of anger, veins bulging on his forehead, and his eyes revealed an undeniable determination.

The gist is simple: the person must be handed over, or he'll really turn on them.

At that point, no matter who comes here to persuade us, it will be of no use.

Xu Wenfeng was like a volcano about to erupt, especially after seeing Gao Jie walking over with unhurried steps.

The anger that had been suppressed in his heart suddenly erupted like a volcano, making him appear even more furious.

Suddenly, he raised his arm with a fierce gesture, pointing it directly at Gao Jie's nose.

His arm trembled slightly with uncontrollable anger, as if the rage was spreading along his arm to his fingertips, and he couldn't wait to teach Gao Jie a lesson.

"I've already said everything I needed to say, why are you still doing this? Hand over my daughter now! Hand her over before I kill you!"

He roared at the top of his lungs, his voice like rolling thunder, instantly echoing throughout the room and reverberating in every corner, carrying an almost out-of-control roar.

It was filled with anger, anxiety, and a strong sense of threat, as if it wanted to break free of the room's constraints and intimidate everyone.

"I don't want to talk to you about any of this bullshit about feelings right now. All I want is my daughter. I don't want to think about anything else. I hope you won't push your luck."

He continued to roar, veins bulging on his forehead, his eyes wide open, filled with rage as he stared intently at Gao Jie.

He looked as if he would pounce on the other party and fight them to the death if they said just one more unpleasant word.

Sister Wen sat there calmly, knowing exactly what was going on.

Xu Wenfeng's visit this time was clearly intentional, meant to cause trouble.

His daughter is missing, what does that have to do with him?

Besides, that bastard Hou Youcai almost killed me back then, but this Xu Wenfeng acted like nothing happened and didn't even say a word of justice.

Now look what's happened! Their daughter is missing, and only now do they think to come here to look for her. It's probably too late. Why didn't they do this earlier?

Thinking of this, Sister Wen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a slightly mocking sneer, and her eyes also showed a hint of disdain as she coldly said.

"My men here really don't know anything about this matter. If Commander Xu doesn't believe me, you can have your men search everywhere. If they find out we've hidden your daughter, you can do whatever you want with us. How about that?"

She spoke slowly and deliberately, her tone carrying an unquestionable composure, as if she had complete confidence in the matter.

After speaking, she paused, narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of warning in her gaze, and raised her voice.

"But I have to be upfront. If you don't discover that we're hiding your daughter here, don't blame us if we turn on you. Commander Xu, what do you think?"

As she spoke, Sister Wen crossed her arms over her chest, her expression serious and indifferent. She stared straight at Xu Wenfeng, showing no sign of backing down despite his anger.

These words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly making Xu Wenfeng's face turn ugly. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something in rebuttal, but for a moment he couldn't find the right words.

He really didn't expect that this woman, who might not have been particularly noticeable in his eyes, would dare to so openly oppose him, which added to his anger.

Enraged, Xu Wenfeng gripped the table tightly with both hands, slowly lowering his body until it was very low, but his eyes remained fixed on Sister Wen.

His eyes seemed to have X-ray vision, as if he wanted to see through Sister Wen's thoughts and ideas.

I wanted to find a clue in her expression to see if she was lying and if she really had nothing to do with her daughter's disappearance.

"I'm warning you, don't speak so confidently. Nobody knows what the situation is right now, and my daughter is missing. I won't let this go so easily. Do you understand?"

His voice was deep and intimidating, like muffled thunder rolling in your ears, each word striking the air heavily, making your heart tighten involuntarily.

"I don't care who has ulterior motives towards my daughter, and I don't care who dares to do such a thing. I only have one thing on my mind: you must resolve my daughter's problem and bring her back to me. As for all that other nonsense, it's none of my business, and I don't want to waste my time on it. Besides, there's an acquaintance of my daughter here, and he hasn't said a word for a while. Don't you want to ask him carefully what he's done?"

As Xu Wenfeng spoke, he glanced in the direction of Gao Jie out of the corner of his eye. The meaning behind his words was quite clear: he was implying that Gao Jie and his daughter were involved in the disappearance.

Sister Wen understood that Xu Wenfeng's words were loaded with meaning. After hearing this, she slowly turned her head and looked at Gao Jie, who was standing to the side.

His eyes held a hint of inquiry, as if he were asking Gao Jie what was going on, or as if he was waiting to see how Gao Jie would handle the situation.

"They've been naming us directly and indirectly, aren't they? Why don't you step forward and say something?"

Sister Wen spoke to Gao Jie, her tone carrying a hint of urging and curiosity, wanting to know how Gao Jie would respond to Xu Wenfeng's aggressive questioning.

Gao Jie stood there quietly, his posture as upright as a pine tree, yet he exuded a cold indifference that kept people at a distance.

He frowned slightly, his eyes filled with disdain and annoyance, and looked coldly at Xu Wenfeng, uttering just a simple sentence.

"Your daughter is missing, why are you contacting us?"

His tone was as calm as if he were stating something trivial, yet it carried an invisible sense of defiance, as if he didn't take Xu Wenfeng's anger and questioning seriously at all.

His eyes held a hint of disdain and mockery.

"Your daughter is missing. You should be looking for her, not causing trouble here. We have nothing to do with each other anymore. Mr. Xu, you should reflect on what you've done. If you hadn't forced your daughter to marry, do you think this would have happened?"

Xu Wenfeng hadn't thought anything was wrong at first, but after hearing those words, he was suddenly jolted, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He was certain that Gao Jie knew where his daughter was.

He couldn't help but frown, his eyes filled with scrutiny and suspicion.

"Gao Jie, we've gotten to know each other quite well, so I hope you won't make things look bad."

His tone carried a hint of suppressed anger and a subtle threat.

"I'll say it again, please release my daughter. We can talk things out in the future, but if you don't, you're challenging my authority, and I will absolutely not let you off the hook then. Do you understand?"

Gao Jie's lips curled up slightly, with a hint of barely perceptible sneer, and he simply nodded.

That nod seemed like a silent response to Xu Wenfeng, yet it also seemed to conceal a deeper secret and disdain.

"I understand, but we don't mean to challenge your authority. I'm just telling you that I don't care how you handle this matter; do whatever you want, I don't care!"

Gao Jie stood with his arms crossed, his posture upright, his eyes revealing a fearless and unruly spirit, his aura seemingly capable of igniting the surrounding air.

Xu Wenfeng was completely stunned by Gao Jie's imposing aura. He stood there, his eyes filled with confusion and panic. At this moment, his mind was like a jumbled mess, with all sorts of thoughts intertwined, and he had no idea what to say.

He felt a strong sense of collapse wash over him like a tidal wave, and most importantly, he had promised the Qin family.

The wedding date has been set, the engagement has been made, but now the person is nowhere to be found. If Qin Hailong finds out, that guy will definitely think that I went back on my word. With Qin Hailong's ruthless methods and vengeful nature, he will definitely not let me off the hook at that time.

Xu Wenfeng seemed to already see his miserable end at Qin Hailong's hands, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily.

Thinking of this, Xu Wenfeng became even more distraught. His face turned deathly pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. If things really came to this, he was afraid he would die a terrible death.

He remained silent for a long time, as the situation was far more complicated than he had imagined. He felt as if he were trapped in a huge quagmire, and the more he struggled, the deeper he sank.

Seeing his expression, Gao Jie frowned slightly, a complex look flashing in his eyes. He then softly reminded him, "I hope you think carefully about what you've done that you shouldn't have done, and also consider your daughter. It's not fair that she has to face everything at such a young age."

His voice carried a barely perceptible hint of concern. "No matter what you think, the situation is what it is. Don't force people to do things they shouldn't. And what would you do if you did it?"

Xu Wenfeng remained silent, standing like a statue, while Sister Wen waved her hand impatiently, signaling Gao Jie to stop talking.

"Some people just can't understand what you're saying, because those people aren't even human. Mr. Xu, we've already said what needed to be said, so please don't push your luck any further."

Sister Wen stood up, her eyes exuding authority. "We do not welcome you here. We hope you will stay away from here. Otherwise, if Mr. Qin finds out, he will definitely be furious. Do you understand?"

She took two steps forward, closer to Xu Wenfeng, and said in a more forceful tone, "Please go far away, away from here, away from everything here."

Sister Wen put her hands on her hips, tilted her head slightly, and said, "I, Wen, have been on this street for decades. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you, if anyone comes here to cause trouble, I can give the order and everyone on this street can surround this place. Then neither you nor your men will be able to escape."

Her eyes held a hint of pride and confidence. "You can think what I'm saying is exaggerated, or you can think what I'm saying is a lie. It doesn't matter. You can just try it."

Sister Wen's eyes sharpened. "In short, if you're planning to take this to the extreme, then I won't hesitate to fight you to the very end!"

These words completely shattered Xu Wenfeng. His body seemed to lose its support, and he swayed slightly. He realized that things were now completely out of his control, probably beyond his imagination.

But now, this is a very critical problem; it's incredibly complicated to consider right now...

Xu Wenfeng weighed the situation in his mind. He knew he couldn't confront Awen head-on, since Awen's influence in the area was not to be underestimated. If a conflict broke out, he might not be able to escape unscathed, and he would also offend the Qin family, which would be utterly disastrous.

So Xu Wenfeng stopped talking nonsense. He glared at Sister Wen fiercely, his gaze seemingly able to pierce through her, and then uttered a sentence.

"Wen Ningmei, don't think that using the Qin family to vent your anger will work. Just you wait, one day I'll come and settle accounts with you."

His voice was filled with resentment and unwillingness, "That day may not be long, I will not let you go."

Xu Wenfeng gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words, each one carrying a strong sense of threat.

Xu Wenfeng turned around, his gaze piercing as he looked at Gao Jie, and said coldly, "And you bastard, how many things have you done? Do you think you can get away with this? You wait! I will find out everything you've done, and then you'll be prepared to face my wrath."

His hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force. He looked like an enraged beast, suppressing his anger for the time being, but the power that could erupt at any moment sent chills down one's spine.
