The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official-Chapter 669: Black Widow’s Threat
Chapter 669: Chapter 669: Black Widow’s Threat
"Black Widow Wei Manman? Why is there suddenly talk of the Avengers?"
Lin Fan, holding the phone, leaning back in his chair with his legs propped on the table, maintained a light tone while smiling.
"Don’t spout nonsense, that’s a nickname some rich kids from the Provincial City gave her. Despite being only twenty-five, she’s already the president of a major conglomerate in the Southern region. She handles things efficiently and ruthlessly. She specifically flew back from another province just for Wei Pengcheng’s affair."
As Wei Family’s daughter-in-law, Chu Shiyuan naturally knew many secrets.
"I don’t get it. If the Wei family doesn’t have connections in the provincial government, how come a female president who flew in from another province is involved?"
At that moment, Ren Tian’ai was gently massaging Lin Fan’s shoulders, the comfortable sensation making him close his eyes involuntarily. He had to admit that the magic of those ten fingers was rather impressive.
"Just because someone has connections in the provincial government doesn’t mean they have to work there. Any network established by a family is quite intricate, and not all offspring will stay within the system. Choices like banking and the arts are popular, and as for doing business, every family will have someone engaged in it. Otherwise, just relying on salaries, how could they improve their living standards? Wei Manman is an example of the Wei family in business, and her influence over these years has been considerable."
Chu Shiyuan briefly explained, "Since Wei Pengcheng’s matter involves the core interests of the Wei family, they naturally needed to actively avoid suspicion to prevent falling into disrepute. That’s why they urgently called Wei Manman back from another province. As a businesswoman, she can involve herself in Wei Pengcheng’s case without having to avoid these issues. The bodyguards she brought with her are said to be practitioners from the Southern regions."
"Alright, it really is a game of power. One group handles relationships, another takes care of making money, always monopolizing the middle class. That’s why they say social class is rigid; it really does exist."
Lin Fan took a cigarette offered by Ren Tian’ai and took a deep drag. This matter was more complex than he had originally prepared for.
After all, he had only anticipated Wei Family’s arrival, but considering their positions within the system, he didn’t expect them to act rashly. But now they’ve brought relationships from another province, which means they could act without any scruples.
"Now is not the time to discuss the issue of social class. We’re talking about Wei Manman. She’s heartless. Back in the day in the Provincial City, she ended the careers of two men. Even though the situation was suppressed, she had to flee far away. Her coming back to target you is lethal, so you better find a place to hide until she leaves. Then you can come back."
Chu Shiyuan instructed anxiously.
"Okay, I got it. I’ll be careful. There’s another call coming in; I have to hang up now."
Seeing that Qiu Qingyi was calling, Lin Fan had to hang up on Chu Shiyuan first.
"Are you still in Red Flag County?"
Just as the call connected, Qiu Qingyi immediately asked.
"Yes, are you here to tell me that Wei Manman is causing me trouble too?"
Lin Fan took a drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled.
"It looks like you’ve got quite the information network in the Provincial City, getting news so quickly!"
Qiu Qingyi felt relieved upon hearing this, "Since you know Wei Manman is after you, then you should know to avoid her sharp edge. I heard she brought over a dozen tough bodyguards with her. Just lay low for a while."
"Don’t forget, I’m the Deputy County Magistrate. Why should I have to flee from my own territory? Moreover, her brother going to jail is none of my business. I haven’t even settled the score for him injuring me."
Lin Fan exhaled smoke; listening to this conversation was infuriating.
"Stop pretending. If he hadn’t beaten you up, would there be subsequent issues? We’re all smart here. Let’s skip the nonsense. According to the information I have, you’re not out of this mess. This time, Wei Pengcheng’s matter is pretty serious, no less than a life sentence. It’s not just him suffering; the Wei family has taken a hit, especially since it happened in Red Flag County. Without regaining their face, how can they continue to operate in the Provincial City!"
Qiu Qingyi cut straight to the point about Wei Pengcheng’s situation. Lin Fan could only laugh wryly upon hearing it.
"Alright, I got it. I have another call, I have to hang up now!"
After hanging up on Qiu Qingyi, Lin Fan took a call from Su Yufei, who naturally represented Boss Qi’s interests as well.
As soon as the call connected, Lin Fan cut her off, "Are you also going to tell me Wei Manman is here and that I should run as far and fast as I can?"
"You already know!"
Su Yufei expressed surprise, "Your mother already told you not to go to Red Flag County, but you not only went there, you also stirred up such a big mess. Now is not the time to be stubborn; quickly come back to Jiangning City. As long as you leave Red Flag County, let the Wei Family show off a bit, and this will soon blow over. Then we can plan for the long term."
"Okay, I got it. I’m hanging up now!"
Lin Fan promptly ended the call, then leaned back in his chair while Ren Tian’ai watched him, "Then you should hurry up and leave!"
"Why should I?"
