75: Chapter 75 Have you had enough? Lin Zhe's words settle everything!

Old Master Shen stood up from his grandmaster chair and walked over to Qin Tianming.

"If the authorities want to investigate, even without concrete evidence, they will turn the Qin Family upside down! You took people to Changsheng Real Estate; did the security guards downstairs not see you? Did the nearby surveillance cameras not record you? Do you think you can wipe everything clean?"

Old Master Shen tapped his cane against the floor. "Once the authorities start digging along the line of the Qin Family, and if it happens to implicate the 'Extraordinary Club' or even involve Mr.…"

Old Master Shen paused deliberately.

The veins on the back of Qin Tianming's hand twitched, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

The anonymous text message he had received earlier at Changsheng Real Estate immediately flashed in his mind.

The sender not only knew his actions like the back of their hand but had specifically warned him, "Do not leave any loose ends."

Could it be that Mr. was already dissatisfied with him back then and had sent someone to warn him?

If that were the case, wouldn't he be walking right into a trap by swaggering in to submit the mission with Chu Shaojie now?

"You are inviting disaster upon yourself and implicating Mr. Can Qin Zhenhua afford to bear this sin! Can your Qin Family afford it!" Old Master Shen's voice was as loud as a bell, making the main hall hum.

Qin Tianming's legs went stiff, and he uncrossed them.

The old fox was not exaggerating.

What Mr. wanted was a clean result, not a mountain of trouble.

"Then, according to Old Master Shen, are we not submitting this mission at all?" Qin Tianming asked, suppressing his anger and gritting his teeth.

"The mission must be submitted, of course." Old Master Shen sat back down in his grandmaster chair. "However, it cannot be submitted by your Qin Family."

Shen Nianwei took over the conversation: "The Qin Family has already shouldered the blame for the destruction of the Chu Family. To go and hand over the person now would draw too much attention. It is better for our Shen Family to submit this mission. We captured the person; our track record is clean, and we didn't alert anyone."

Qin Tianming stood up abruptly: "So the Qin Family puts in the effort and takes the heat, and your Shen Family gets a year of life for free? How can there be such a good deal in this world!"

"Who said you were doing it for nothing?" Old Master Shen picked up his teacup. "Go call your father and explain the current situation clearly. Tell him the Shen Family is shielding the Qin Family from this risk. In the book of merits, there will naturally be a prominent entry for the Qin Family. When it comes to Mr., he knows exactly who put in the effort, and he will never treat you unfairly."

Dozens of Qin Family bodyguards were still waiting for his order; as long as he gave the nod, these men would immediately rush forward to snatch the person.

If it really came down to a fight, Qin Tianming was confident he could snatch the person away.

But he didn't dare.

Every word of what Old Master Shen had just said struck his fatal weakness.

Chairman Chu Changfeng died too suddenly; no matter how clean the cleanup was, it was still a homicide case.

The police would definitely intervene with a large-scale investigation tomorrow, and since Changsheng Real Estate was a massive enterprise worth billions, this matter could not be suppressed.

At this critical juncture, if the authorities' gaze were to follow the Qin Family and lead to Yunding Mansion...

Just thinking about that consequence made cold sweat run down Qin Tianming's back.

If he angered Mr., let alone getting a reward, the one year of life his father had just renewed might be wiped out by tomorrow.

"Old Master Shen, you sure know how to calculate." Qin Tianming unclenched his fist, his palm covered in sweat. "My Qin Family went to great lengths to drive Chairman Chu Changfeng into a dead end, only to end up being a stepping stone for your Shen Family?"

Old Master Shen put down his teacup.

"Tianming, don't put it that way. We are all working for Mr., and there is only one ultimate goal, which is to get things done beautifully." Old Master Shen's tone was calm. "The trouble you currently have hasn't been cleaned up yet. If I take this person, it will be good for you, for me, and for Mr."

Shen Nianwei took a step forward.

"President Qin, now is not the time to fight over this. You should hurry back and clean up the mess you left behind. Although that bodyguard went to turn himself in, who can guarantee he won't talk nonsense once he's inside? You need to seal his lips tight." Shen Nianwei reminded him.

Qin Tianming turned to look at Shen Nianwei.

He knew very well that continuing this standoff was pointless.

"Fine." Qin Tianming pointed at Chu Shaojie on the ground. "You Shen Family can take him. But I'll say this upfront: if Mr. asks about the destruction of the Chu Family, you had better report the truth. If you dare to swallow the credit for my Qin Family, I will fight you to the death and make sure the Shen Family doesn't have an easy time either!"

Old Master Shen chuckled twice.

"The Shen Family is not so greedy for this bit of credit. What belongs to whom will remain so."

Yunding Mansion, second-floor study.

Zhou Ye sat in front of the computer, listening to the surveillance audio.

The sound was recorded from the mobile phone Shen Nianwei had placed on the coffee table.

With Zhou Ye's abilities, any mobile phone could become his bot, allowing him to monitor the surrounding sounds.

"Boss, these two argued for a long time and finally reached a consensus." Zhou Ye smiled. "I thought they were really going to have a fight in the Shen Family's courtyard."

"They won't fight." Lin Zhe leaned back on the sofa. "Their fear of the unknown is far greater than their greed for credit; they would never dare to act recklessly."

"But watching them pass the buck is annoying." Zhou Ye turned his chair. "Do you want me to use the AI from those overseas accounts to give them a nudge in the channel?"

Lin Zhe did not respond, his gaze sweeping over Chu Shaojie, who was still struggling on the screen.

The goal had been achieved; Changsheng Real Estate was falling apart, Chairman Chu Changfeng had jumped to his death, and Chu Shaojie had been captured alive.

There was no need to waste any more time watching the Qin and Shen Families play palace intrigue.

"No need for AI. I will give the order directly." Lin Zhe took out his phone, opened the management backend of the Extraordinary Club, and tapped rapidly on the virtual keyboard.

Shen Family main hall.

Qin Tianming was preparing to turn and leave with his men to return to Changsheng Real Estate and deal with the remaining trouble.

Suddenly.

Ding.

A crisp sound.

Old Master Shen's phone rang.

It was a specially processed sound effect; every time this sound was heard, it meant a message with the highest authority had been issued by the Extraordinary Club.

Old Master Shen snatched the phone from the coffee table.

Shen Nianwei and Qin Tianming did not have the club app on their phones and could not receive the message, so they hurried over, and all three looked at the screen.

On the blood-red app interface, a dark gold pinned dialog box popped up.

"Have you had enough."

Only four characters, no punctuation.

Looking at these four characters, Qin Tianming felt his scalp tingle, his legs went weak, and he almost lost his balance, quickly grabbing the armrest of the chair next to him.

Old Master Shen's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the phone on the floor.

Immediately after, another message popped up on the screen.

"Shen Changshan, hand the person over to Qin Tianming."

"Qin Zhenhua, take the person to a secret location."

The messages stopped there, with no further follow-up, but they had already completely set the tone for this incident.

This mission was completed by the Qin Family!
