Chapter 156: The Butterfly'S Wings, Fanning A World-Changing Tornado
“What… what did you say?!”
Chi Song's eyes immediately turned bloodshot. He was constantly suppressing his rage, his voice growing hoarse.
It was unclear whether his anger stemmed from the news itself or was directed at Si Chen.
However, there was no hint of fear in Si Chen's voice. “I said, Chi Xiaocheng is dead.”
“Bang—!”
As soon as the words fell, Chi Song, who had fully registered them, suddenly exerted force. With a tremendous grip, he crushed the phone in his hand!
The screen and internal glass shards dug into his palm, but Chi Song didn't relax his grip in the slightest.
He merely turned, calling out to Liang Hei and the other henchmen, “Get in the car, we're going back!”
Liang Hei, holding a disheveled bodyguard in a suit with one hand, asked in surprise, “Boss, why are we going back now? What about these Ye family people?”
Chi Song turned, frowning deeply. “Did you find out what they were up to?”
“We found out. The new batch of crystal meth circulating in Litchi City recently? It was indeed those bastards from the Ye family who produced it. Ye Liang has gone completely mad for money!”
“In that case, throw all these people into the river. Then tell the brothers to return immediately, there's an urgent matter!”
Whether the news Si Chen brought was true or false, even if it was a case of crying wolf, he had to return to Jiuzhou City!
Gripping the steering wheel with one hand, Chi Song drifted despite the icy roads, quickly returning to the gang's base.
Brother Long seemed to have received some news, as he was already waiting there. “You're back? Someone named Si Chen called me, telling you not to be so impulsive.”
Chi Song paused, startled, his expression softening considerably. “My apologies.”
Brother Long handed the phone to Chi Song. “You talk to him.”
Taking the call, Si Chen's voice remained calm and rational. “Chi Song, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. If reason abandons you, you won't even have a chance for revenge.”
Chi Song unconsciously tightened his grip on Brother Long's phone again.
But he still let out a long breath.
As a villain who survived 200 chapters in the original story, he wasn't the kind of hot-headed, mindless character who'd lose all reason.
Forcing down his emotions, Chi Song said to Si Chen, “Please explain the full story, and the current situation.”
Si Chen replied, “This morning, a sniper fired a shot at Su Tao. Chi Xiaocheng saved Su Tao but was hit herself. She's currently in surgery, and we just got word that the doctors have done everything they can.”
“Su Tao collapsed at the hospital, her condition is currently unknown. The sniper was hit by a car and died while trying to escape, but I still managed to follow the clues and find the mastermind.”
“Who is it!” Chi Song's voice suddenly rose, making Brother Long glance over.
Si Chen calmly uttered two words: “Ye Liang.”
Ye Liang again!
Chi Song's fury continued to mount.
The chaos in Litchi City this time, with the surge in crystal meth, was all due to Ye Liang's faction.
Si Chen said, “I can't handle Ye Liang alone. His influence in Jiuzhou City is too strong. I need you to bring your people back to help me, and also to help Chi Xiaocheng and Su Tao.”
“Alright! I'll bring my people back!”
Chi Song agreed without hesitation, but just as he nodded, Brother Long took the phone from him.
“Piney said don't rush, even a stubborn mind needs to turn a bit, you know?”
Brother Long took the call from Si Chen and said coolly, “I haven't heard of someone like you being around my little sister. Young Master Si, you want to use our influence to take down Ye Liang, right? Trying to get something for nothing?”
Si Chen's voice paused, clearly not expecting Chi Song to have someone like Brother Long by his side.
He slowly chuckled, “That's right, that's one of my intentions. But I truly wasn't lying about avenging Chi Xiaocheng. Both Su Tao and that little one are quite important to me.”
Brother Long said, “We can bring our people back, but whatever territory we take in Jiuzhou City will be split fifty-fifty.”
Si Chen: “No problem. The Jiuzhou University plot is all yours. I'll also step in to handle anything on the legitimate side of things that I can. I want Ye Liang dead!”
He, of course, loathed Ye Liang. His investment in Chi Xiaocheng had been a path steadily broadening.
He was just waiting for Chi Xiaocheng to win over Su Tao, and then for Su Tao's War God father to return.
Then he'd sit in his rocking chair, enjoying the sweet ‘shipping’ of Su Tao and Chi Xiaocheng, watching their twisted, dramatic antics, all while waiting for the War God father to arrive and secure a victory for them all.
To live an easy and pleasant life of revenge.
But who would have thought that Ye Liang, that bastard, would flip the table, even sending a sniper for an outright kill!
Now look what happened. With Chi Xiaocheng dead, all of Si Chen's investments went down the drain.
Damn it, the four characters “Never Love Tao” are practically emblazoned in gold on my back!
Ye Liang, you deserve to die!
The call quickly concluded as the details were revealed.
Chi Song's face was grim. Though he hadn't investigated, he mostly believed Si Chen's words.
He definitely had to go back, but...
Chi Song looked at Brother Long, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Brother Long chuckled softly, running a hand over his freshly shaven, shiny bald head – a look he'd adopted after a blade had grazed his scalp, making his hair look ugly. “Piney, I'll go with you too.”
Chi Song was startled. “Brother Long, how can that be? You still need to hold down the fort here!”
“Don't be so naive.” Brother Long's eyes also grew cold. “The Ye family has been causing trouble in Litchi City for months this time, costing me so many brothers.”
“Now they think they can just run?” Brother Long slammed his palm on the table. “I still need to avenge my brothers! If we're doing this, let's do it big. We'll march straight to their main stronghold in Jiuzhou City!”
Brother Long reached out and powerfully punched Chi Song's chest. “When the time comes, leave Ye Liang's people to me, your brother. All you need to do is find that bastard, and personally put a bullet in him, to avenge our little sister!”
The last time they spoke on the phone, Chi Xiaocheng had sweetly called him “Brother Long.”
For that one “Brother,” he was absolutely going to help!
Brother Long patted Chi Song's shoulder again and walked out of the room. “Notify the brothers, we're about to pull off a big job!”
Chi Song took a deep breath, slowly clenching his fists, his eyes turning terrifying and cold. “Ye Liang, you were lucky last time in the snow. This time, I will absolutely not let you go!”
If Su Tao knew the original plot, if Chi Xiaocheng's consciousness was still clear, then they would realize that nothing seemed to have changed.
Chi Xiaocheng had tried her best to interfere with the plot, to change the tragic ending of the original story and find love for herself.
But despite much effort, the plot was still proceeding along the original timeline.
She turned against Ye Liang, became his enemy, and then died.
Chi Song, with Brother Long's forces, was about to launch a furious counterattack!
And this specific point in the original story was no different from the present, both occurring after New Year's Day but before Lunar New Year's Eve.
But this time, it was different.
Everyone was on her side!
Suddenly, Jiuzhou City was swept up in turmoil.
Meanwhile, Su Tao, who had collapsed and fainted, unable to accept reality, and had been lying in a hospital bed for a day and a night, finally stirred awake.
