Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law-Chapter 1233: Disaster Strikes So Quickly!

"Ai Sichun, watch your words! My granddaughter, Baili Xi's granddaughter, is not yours to insult!"

Baili Xi heard Ai Sichun's rude remarks and said indifferently.

"Am I wrong? Baili Xi, you old backstabber, you think the Lin Family is easy to bully, that I'm easy to bully as the Lin Family's soon-to-be Family Head's Wife?! Let me tell you, if a hair on my son's head is harmed in Jiangdong, I'll hold you accountable!!"

Ai Sichun continued to curse, her tone filled with threat, but just then, Lin Liansheng snatched the phone away and coldly said, "Baili Xi, other matters aside, where is my son now? I want you to find him immediately and ensure his safety!"

At this point, he finally began to believe that his son might really have encountered trouble in Jiangdong. His son had suffered a great humiliation without returning home, and now he was completely out of contact. Could it be...?

"I'm sorry to say, in my long life, no one has ever ordered me to do anything! Your son left on his own; he is an adult and should be responsible for his own actions."

"You!!"

Lin Liansheng was suddenly furious as well, not expecting Baili Xi to show him such disrespect, and said menacingly, "Fine, fine, fine! Baili Xi, remember this, you and my Lin Family's grudge is settled! No matter where my son is, I will restore his honor. Just you wait!"

"I'll be waiting anytime!"

Baili Xi finished disdainfully and directly hung up the phone.

Lin Liansheng and Ai Sichun trembled with rage on the bed!

"That old thing must have taken the wrong medicine, right? How dare he talk to you like that? Is the Baili Family just asking to be wiped out in Jiangdong?"

Ai Sichun said through gritted teeth.

But Lin Liansheng just sat there, his face dark, without saying anything.

He had just lost his temper and said harsh words to Baili Xi.

In reality, no one knew better than him the cost of truly going to war with the Baili Family!

Even if the Lin Family is a Capital City family and holds a higher status than the Baili Family, so what? The Baili Family is deeply rooted in Jiangdong Province—no pushovers.

A strong dragon cannot crush a local serpent. Even if the Baili Family were truly injured, the Lin Family would also suffer greatly, let alone the fact that Lin Liansheng is not yet the Family Head and cannot make such a big decision.

"Just shut up for a moment and let me think!"

With a deeply conflicted heart, Lin Liansheng reached for a box of cigarettes from the bedside, lit one, and exhaled smoke, saying, "The most urgent matter now is not fighting with that old man, but finding Xiao Kai first!"

"Yes, our son's safety is the most important. I called him earlier, but the line was always busy. I'm really worried about our precious son..." Ai Sichun said anxiously.

Feeling even more annoyed, Lin Liansheng said nothing, dressed quickly, and walked out of the bedroom.

"Ao Zhong!"

"Young Master, I'm here!"

No sooner had the words fallen than a cold presence appeared right in front of Lin Liansheng from the shadows outside the villa, like a ghost!

"Take some people to Jiangdong, and no matter what means you have to use, find out Xiao Kai's whereabouts for me and bring him back as quickly as possible, without fail!" Lin Liansheng ordered.

"Understood!"

The figure named Ao Zhong turned without a word and disappeared into the darkness.

"Baili Xi, you better pray that nothing's wrong with my son; otherwise, the day I ascend as the Lin Family Master will be the day your Baili Family is erased from Jiangdong!"

Lin Liansheng looked towards Jiangdong, his gaze filled with malice and coldness!

...

Baili Family's Mountain Manor.

After Baili Xi hung up the phone, he also had no intention of sleeping.

He had made his stance clear, but the fact that Lin Zekai, that troublesome man, still hadn't returned to the Capital was beyond his expectations.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Bai Touying's voice came through: "Old Master, have you rested?"

"Come in!"

Baili Xi's heart sank immediately!

He had a stronger and stronger sense of foreboding because Bai Touying knew his schedule, and would never disturb him at night unless it was an urgent matter.

And ever since the Baili Family had secured its position as number one in Jiangdong, there hadn't been an "urgent matter" for years!

"Old Master, there's an urgent situation I must report to you; it is of grave importance..."

Bai Touying came in, his expression unprecedentedly serious.

"Is it related to Lin Zekai?" Baili Xi asked calmly.

Bai Touying was taken aback: "Old Master, you know?"

"What's the situation, tell me!" Baili Xi frowned.

"Here's the situation: we just received a notification that a male corpse was found in the supreme suite 1808 of the Wilson Hotel not long ago. It has been confirmed as Lin Zekai! His death was horrific, his body mangled and unrecognizable. Who knows what he went through?" Bai Touying said solemnly.

"He really is dead!"

Baili Xi was extremely surprised, no wonder Lin Liansheng and his wife called in the middle of the night, did they catch wind of this too?

However, they likely hadn't received the full bad news, otherwise, they wouldn't just inquire but directly accuse!

At this moment, Baili Xi felt an even heavier weight in his heart!

Though he was prepared for the consequences, he didn't expect disaster to strike so quickly!

Nobody understood better than him the dire consequences of Lin Zekai's death in Jiangdong; even if the Baili Family hadn't done it, they couldn't escape the fallout.

"Who did it?" Baili Xi asked coldly.

"Unknown! The perpetrator is not an ordinary person!"

Bai Touying shook his head: "None of Wilson's surveillance captured anything, and even the cameras in the corridor outside the suite were destroyed by an unknown force—it was clearly the work of a Martial Artist! The provincial action department has already been alarmed, and it's likely soon to reach the Lin Family in the Capital City."

"Things have already started to stir over there," Baili Xi sneered, "but they probably still don't know the full story about Lin Zekai's incident; otherwise, they wouldn't have just called to ask me."

Bai Touying's expression was quite heavy: "Old Master, what do you think we should do? Lin Zekai died in Jiangdong, and after being rejected by the Baili Family, he was brutally murdered—it's like mud falling into one's pants: dirty and unavoidable! We must come up with a response to face the Lin Family's wrath."

"I've certainly thought of a response plan. The Baili Family has been too comfortable for so many years; it's time for some turmoil, otherwise, the young people's bones in the family will rust."

Baili Xi sneered: "But now I'm just curious if it was that Jiang kid who did it. He should have this kind of skill, and he even eloped with my precious granddaughter!"

"Impossible!"

Bai Touying immediately denied it: "According to your instructions, I had people secretly watch that kid and confirmed he took Miss back to Binhai; it couldn't have been him! Besides, since he already took Miss, there's no need for him to attack a defeated suitor, unless—"

Saying this, Bai Touying's expression changed instantly, as if he had thought of something!
