Seeing Ye Tianfan just leave like that, although Qin Ruomeng was burning with anger, she had no way to handle him. She could only sigh deeply, slowly sit down on the chair, and then look at Ji Liancheng, asking, "Ji Liancheng, do you have any strategies to deal with this situation?"

At this moment, Ji Liancheng's face darkened, his brows furrowed tightly, and he whispered, "There is a strategy, but it's too risky. Because as far as I know, with the current power of the Long Family, wanting to completely occupy the Qin Family's market in Lingbei District of Jiangzhou City overnight is absolutely impossible!"

Lingbei District, as the largest goods distribution center in Jiangzhou City, offers a range of products that include steel, vegetables, daily commodities, and antique trade. Not only is it one of the Qin Family's crucial economic sources, but it also boasts three extremely important docks and harbors providing convenience for the Qin Family's import and export trade!

At this moment, Qin Ruomeng's face also turned very unsightly. Ji Liancheng was right, Lingbei District, after the Qin Family's sixty years of dedicated management, had deep-rooted influence, so much so that even the Long Family couldn't wholly sever the Qin Family's business network in Lingbei District.

Yet, Long Yuqing managed to do just that! And she did it overnight, uprooting the Qin Family's entire business network in Lingbei District with precision and swiftness, leaving Qin Ruomeng with virtually no time to react!

At this moment, a trace of astonishment flashed in Qin Ruomeng's beautiful eyes, she looked at Ji Liancheng and asked, "Could it be Fang Zaitian?"

Ji Liancheng nodded, then shook his head, speaking gravely, "To eliminate the Qin Family's influence in Lingbei District overnight, the Long Family can't do it, and neither can Fang Zaitian—but the two of them together! That is possible!"

With these words, Ji Liancheng furrowed his brows and said in a deep voice, "If that's really the case, then this matter is very tricky! This Fang Zaitian is not simple!"

"Fang Zaitian?"

Mentioning Fang Zaitian, Qin Ruomeng's face was immediately covered with frost. Elder Qin had personally visited Hong Kong several times to invite him, but wasn't able to bring Fang Zaitian over, indicating how arrogant Fang Zaitian was. But now, why did he suddenly come to the mainland to help Long Yuqing?

Just when Qin Ruomeng was puzzled, Long Yuqing's figure appeared in the villa at No. 16 Peony Street. When Ye Tianfan just pushed the door open, he saw Long Yuqing sitting on the sofa watching TV, which made him furrow his brows involuntarily.

"Back?"

Seeing Ye Tianfan return, Long Yuqing put down the remote control in her hand, stood up, and like a wife married for many years, softly walked over to Ye Tianfan, gently helped him take off his coat, and hung it on the coat rack before saying, "Went to Qin Group, didn't you?"

Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow, his eyes fixed on Long Yuqing, and said, "Miss Long, your move was brilliant, even got me involved."

Long Yuqing's face was full of a tender smile, and she said, "Really?"

"Isn't it?" As soon as the words were out, Ye Tianfan sat down on the sofa with an obviously displeased expression. He didn't want to get involved in the business battle between the two families, but he didn't expect to get shot unwittingly.

Seeing Ye Tianfan's expression, Long Yuqing's eyebrows also slightly knitted, she walked towards Ye Tianfan with a face full of apology and said, "If I say I didn't set you up, would you believe me?"

"What do you think?" A sharp glint quickly flashed in Ye Tianfan's eyes. Long Yuqing made her move suddenly, and timed it so perfectly, not only upsetting Qin Ruomeng but also sweeping through Lingbei District with swift tactics overnight. If she said it was a coincidence, Ye Tianfan wouldn't believe it at all!

"The struggle for Lingbei District this time was Mr. Fang's idea. He made the first move, and only after that did I follow!"

Long Yuqing was also quite bitter about this; Ye Tianfan had expressed his unwillingness to get involved in the business battle between the two families, giving Long Yuqing a peace of mind. Why would she still provoke Ye Tianfan?

If this Lingbei matter was truly led by Long Yuqing, she would never choose to make her move last night! Even though doing so could shatter Qin Ruomeng's resolve, it also inevitably ensnared Ye Tianfan. If Ye Tianfan got involved in the business war between the two families because of this, it would mean shooting herself in the foot!

Ye Tianfan's demeanor suddenly darkened, and he said coldly, "Was it Fang Zaitian? Was it him who decided to strike unexpectedly last night?"

At this moment, a hint of chill had flashed in Ye Tianfan's eyes. If that were true, then the eyes and ears in Qin Ruomeng's villa were not planted by Long Yuqing, but by Fang Zaitian!

Long Yuqing nodded and said, "If I had known acting last night would implicate you, I would surely have picked a different time."

Ye Tianfan squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Long Yuqing, and said in a deep voice, "Really? You would let go of such a good opportunity? Crushing Qin Ruomeng's resolve in one fell swoop, leaving her unable to react, Lingbei District's market would be completely in your hands."

This statement from Ye Tianfan made Long Yuqing shake her head repeatedly, she said, "What's the point of breaking Qin Ruomeng's resolve? The truly formidable character of the Qin Family is not her, it's Qin Wujue!"

Thinking of Elder Qin's eyes, deep like a dried-up well, Ye Tianfan's heart trembled slightly. Long Yuqing was right, the truly formidable character of the Qin Family was Elder Qin, not Qin Ruomeng!

Silence.

Both Long Yuqing and Ye Tianfan fell into silence. After quite a while, Ye Tianfan furrowed his brows, looked at Long Yuqing, and said in a deep voice, "You need to be cautious of this person, Fang Zaitian! I sense that he harbors great ambition. I don't know what method you used to bring him from Hong Kong, but I feel this is someone beyond your control! Once the Qin Family is taken down, perhaps it'll be your turn to contend against Fang Zaitian."

Confronted with Ye Tianfan's warning, Long Yuqing's expression slightly changed, then she spoke out, "Don't worry, if I can bring him here, I can hold him firmly! I have leverage over him!"

This statement from Long Yuqing surprised Ye Tianfan a bit. Fang Zaitian, such a cunning and treacherous person, and she managed to have leverage on him?

Though surprised, seeing the confidence on Long Yuqing's face, it didn't seem like she was just making things up.

"What leverage?"

Long Yuqing gave a mysterious smile and said, "Did you know Fang Zaitian wasn't originally from Hong Kong? He used to live in the mainland and he has a wife and child."

"What?"

Ye Tianfan couldn't help but exclaim. It was known that Fang Zaitian managed to become a dominant figure in Hong Kong because he managed to marry the daughter of Hong Kong's richest man, climbing each step to his current position as a boss in Hong Kong.

But who would have thought Fang Zaitian actually had a wife and child in the mainland?

"You use that to blackmail him? To get him to come to the mainland to help you?" Ye Tianfan asked.

Long Yuqing shook her head, gave a light smile, and said, "Of course not! Though Fang Zaitian married the daughter of Hong Kong's richest man to reach this point, since he established himself as the boss in Hong Kong, he already holds absolute power! Such news wouldn't pose any threat to him!"
