The numbers on the red light were decreasing one by one, quickly entering the countdown.
Lin Mengyan looked through the window at the old bicycle parked in front of the crosswalk, and mainly at the person on it. She thought she was mistaken, but after carefully looking once more, she confirmed that her eyes hadn’t deceived her.
From his back, she could affirm he was indeed that guy.
That guy who once stirred up waves in Moon City time and again.
It’s been a long time since she saw him, having heard he went to Tianjing. But now, it was clear he had returned, though she hadn’t expected to see him under such circumstances.
Unfortunately, only she could see him, while he was looking at the red light and didn’t see her. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by NoveI[F]ire.net
Lin Mengyan was an extremely calm woman. When she saw Fang Yi, her heart fluttered for a brief moment, and memories of their past times together flashed through her mind. But she quickly quelled that slight flutter in her heart and calmed herself.
Hearing the suit-clad man’s question, Lin Mengyan slightly parted her red lips and said indifferently, "There are no issues."
Having said this, Lin Mengyan shifted her gaze to another place.
The red light’s numbers disappeared, the green light started, pedestrians crossed, and vehicles could pass through.
Fang Yi rode his old bicycle across the crosswalk, and the car Lin Mengyan was in also started, quickly surpassing the bicycle and leaving Fang Yi far behind.
Lin Mengyan returned to her usual self, took out her phone, opened the contacts, and scrolled to a name, but she soon put the phone away again.
"Miss Lin, we’ll be reaching Purple Vine Bay soon," the suit-clad man in the front passenger seat said.
"Director Zhu has already arrived there."
"Director Zhu is thoughtful," Lin Mengyan said indifferently.
The suit-clad man smiled slightly and said, "I think Director Zhu will surely give you a big surprise, Miss Lin."
Lin Mengyan’s expression was neither happy nor sad. Her beautiful face was indifferent, and she didn’t speak further.
Seeing Lin Mengyan fall silent, the suit-clad man refrained from continuing the conversation and remained quiet.
Just like that, the black Kia continued towards the Purple Vine Bay restaurant.
Fang Yi was still leisurely riding his old bicycle.
He didn’t call Meng Wei and the others; Fang Yi wanted to launch a surprise attack to understand the situation of the Dragon Soul Alliance.
Nowadays, the Dragon Soul Alliance’s headquarters was actually within the company Fang Yi established, much like Bai Jingjing’s White Tiger Alliance in the past. To launder her reputation, she also set up a shell company.
However, the company Fang Yi established wasn’t just a shell but was meant for fencing.
Originally, Fang Yi created the company to legitimize the money under his name, paying whatever taxes necessary. Later, he and Shen Binan discovered a gold mine in that abandoned amusement park. Although it was unclear how much could be mined and for how long, it was at least a windfall of unexpected wealth.
Because of this, Fang Yi sent Yang Dingfeng and Su Ge’er to Lank City to set up a factory, transforming the gold into other shapes, like jewelry and artifacts, and then legally transporting them inland. His company and Shen Binan’s Longtu Group sold them, thus laundering the funds.
Fang Yi united the four major alliances in Moon City into the Dragon Soul Alliance, establishing its headquarters there. Zhou Peilan managed the finances and related matters.
Thus, Fang Yi wanted to go there for a surprise attack. It’s not that he didn’t trust Zhou Peilan; he just didn’t trust others.
