In the black luxury car, Bai Long slowly started the engine, casually pressed a switch, and the armrest refrigerator in the back seat slowly opened.
"Mr. Lin, do you prefer red wine or cigars?"
Bai Long asked casually.
Lin Beichen looked at the night scene outside the window, his expression calm.
"Mr. Lin, after you finish this glass of wine, I will take you to the airport. Whether you go back to the Imperial Capital or abroad, just don’t stay in Huadu anymore."
Bai Long saw Lin Beichen remain silent and shook his head indifferently.
"I know you are a friend of the young master and want to support him in developing in the South, but you’re thinking too simply. The power dynamics between the North and the South have had rules for a thousand years—each side stays out of the other’s way.
The young master is still young and agreed to you without knowing the severity after you encouraged him. But he doesn’t know that the Southern Power has not truly stepped in yet. Once they are angered, they will thunder down with a decisive strike.
At that time, the young master will be hurt, and you will be instantly annihilated. While things are peaceful now, I’m sending you out to enjoy yourself. The Southern Power is not something you can provoke."
Bai Long drove the car near a night park and slowly stepped on the brake.
Throughout the journey, it was just him talking, and Lin Beichen hadn’t responded once.
Bai Long frowned, patience almost gone.
He certainly didn’t want to kill Lin Beichen but also needed a clear answer from him.
First talk, then action?
Finally finished with the polite words, ready to make a move?
Lin Beichen found it amusing, saying lightly:
"We are all people of Dragon Country. Wouldn’t it be good for the North and South to develop together?"
"Telling me is useless. The person who decides the Southern attitude is not me, but Xu Jiangyan."
Bai Long said coldly.
"Others might think that over sixty percent of entertainment venues in Huadu are mine and call me the Entertainment King of Huadu, but this is just a facade. Every year, I have to surrender more than half of the profits as protection money, and the one who collects this money is Xu Jiangyan."
Lin Beichen was slightly surprised, not expecting such insider information.
At the bar, he had heard many legends about Bai Long and thought he’d already entered the Southern circle, but it turned out to be just a facade.
The North and South should indeed develop together, but the specific distribution of interests is another matter.
The division of interests and different stances on major and minor issues vary.
Being in this world, not everything can be clearly explained.
"I heard from the young master that you’re quite good at fighting and that you have a knack for business?"
Bai Long said coldly, his eyes glinting with a trace of chill. Suddenly, he slapped the steering wheel, revealing a ferocious expression.
"But so what if you’re good at fighting? This is the age of hot weapons. If someone wants to kill you, they don’t need to face you directly! They can shoot from one or two kilometers away. Can you block that? You’re too naive. Please don’t get my young master killed!"
"A loyal dog indeed. But hasn’t Bai Yunfei told you about my identity?"
Lin Beichen watched Bai Long’s performance indifferently.
"You!"
Bai Long grit his teeth, his eyes wide with anger.
Just for what Lin Beichen said, he had dozens of ways to kill Lin Beichen.
If it weren’t for the young master valuing this person, he wouldn’t have come tonight at all.
In outsiders’ eyes, he’s a Southern underground boss, but in the real circles, he’s just a dog making money for others.
Lin Beichen made things clear, but saying it so directly pricked his heart.
"For you coming to see me tonight, it shows you are indeed loyal to the Bai Family. But even so, you still need to face the consequences."
Lin Beichen gave a faint smile, his face suddenly turning cold, and slapped the car door.
The thick explosion-proof car door immediately collapsed, bending into a mass of scrap metal.
Bai Long looked at Lin Beichen in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock.
The young master said Lin Beichen could fight, but he only thought it to be some scattered martial arts. Unexpectedly, this person had such terrifying brute strength.
Lin Beichen stepped out of the car, came to the driver’s door, and looked down at Bai Long.
A cold sweat dripped from Bai Long’s forehead.
"I don’t care what grievances and grudges there are between the North and South. Since you can enter the Southern circle, go tell them this.
The benefits they deserve, I won’t take a cent less. But if they dare to provoke me and hinder my work, I’ll make them realize just how powerless humans can sometimes be!"
Crazy!
This guy is simply crazy.
Bai Long looked at Lin Beichen in disbelief. How dare this guy say such things?
On others’ turf eating meat, you have to look at others’ faces. Thousands of years, everyone has been like this. Why is this brat so arrogant?
"I thought you knew what rules are, but unexpected, you’re just an ignorant idiot."
Bai Long snorted coldly, started the car, and casually closed the door.
"For the sake of you being friends with the young master, I won’t trouble you this time. Next time we meet, you’d better have your will written."
After saying that, the black luxury car sped off into the distance, disappearing without a trace.
As the car passed the corner of the park, it stopped, and a woman in a black trench coat got on.
Perhaps thinking Lin Beichen couldn’t see her anymore, as soon as she got in the car, Bai Long pressed her down on the seat.
Soon, ambiguous sounds filled the car.
"Bai Yunfei’s subordinate is quite lively."
Lin Beichen shook his head in a peculiar manner and turned to walk into the park.
The night was like water. The night park had a unique flavor, but few paid attention to it.
Bai Long’s warning, Lin Beichen didn’t care at all.
