Young Master Fang's wrist had been severed by Ye Qing because of Wang Tiezhu, so his first target for revenge was Wang Tiezhu. However, since Wang Tiezhu was in the hospital and protected by the Zhao family, Fang Cai couldn't directly attack him, so he thought of this malicious method to target Wang Tiezhu's family members.

When Young Master Fang dealt with Wang Lili, it was precisely when Ye Qing had fallen out with the Lin family. They originally thought Ye Qing was utterly finished, so they brazenly did such things to her, even going far enough to take numerous nude photos of Wang Lili to tarnish her reputation later, also to infuriate Wang Tiezhu.

But what they could have never imagined was that in just four short days, Ye Qing had turned defeat into victory. Not only had he caught the international thief He Ziqiang, but he had also reconciled with the Lin family and even garnered the support of the Lin and Zhao families.

What was more critical was that in just a few days, he had acquired the Fierce Tiger Gang's eleven most profitable venues, emerging as one of the few big bosses in Shenchuan City and even daring to challenge the likes of Li Wenyuan and the Shangguans. This was completely beyond their imagination.

Moreover, precisely when Ye Qing was in high spirits, he also learned about what happened to Wang Lili. Recalling how Ye Qing had stormed into the Lin Family Courtyard in a rage, the five of them couldn't help but tremble with fear. Ye Qing, usually unassuming and inconspicuous, was a force to be reckoned with once he lost his temper—he was unstoppable.

If he dared to storm into the Lin family—Shenchuan City's largest family—was there anything he wouldn't dare to do?

The five could not even dare to imagine what would happen if Ye Qing thoroughly investigated this matter. If he traced it back to them, would Ye Qing let them off?

The faces of the five turned deathly pale, especially Young Master Fang, who knew full well how vicious Ye Qing could be. The scars on his wrist had just formed; he certainly didn't dare to suffer more injuries.

"Mom, the deed ... the deed is already done, and there's no use talking about it now. Don't be angry anymore. We were prepared for this," Young Master Fang swallowed his saliva and said, "We gave Jia Zhengze a large sum of money, he surely won't betray us. Besides, our plan was flawless. Ye Qing might not even realize it was our doing, might think it was just an accident."

"An accident?" Luo Caiyun glared at Young Master Fang with disapproval, "Do you think your execution was flawless? Ye Qing is far smarter than you. He already sensed something was off about this incident. Otherwise, why would he send people to capture Jia Zhengze? Do you think Jia Zhengze won't betray you? Do you not know Ye Qing's methods?

You think Jia Zhengze isn't afraid of dying?"

In great alarm, Ding Shaoyan asked in a firm voice, "Auntie, has Jia Zhengze ratted us out?"

Luo Caiyun glanced at Ding Shaoyan, scanned the five of them, and said sternly, "Thankfully I've known about this from the start. After Ye Qing rescued Wang Lili this afternoon, I started cleaning up your mess. Jia Zhengze... He won't ever be able to speak again!"

The five were initially startled, then quickly understood the implication behind Luo Caiyun's words.

"Mom, you could have said so earlier, scared me there!" Young Master Fang patted his chest, approached Luo Caiyun, and affectionately clung to her arm, "Mom, I knew you cared for me the most. So, has Jia Zhengze been deep-sixed?"

"What do you think?" Luo Caiyun glared at him, but after all, he was her son, and she just couldn't stay mad at him.

"Mom, I trust how you handle things!" Young Master Fang chuckled and said, "Mom, don't worry, I won't make such rookie mistakes again. Let's just consider this incident a lesson."

"A lesson?" Luo Caiyun said coldly, "With the way you guys handle things, you're bound to eat more of these lessons. Do you think just because Jia Zhengze is dead, it's all settled? Jia Zhengze was very close to Da Hong. It's very likely he might have told Da Hong about this."

A cold gleam flashed in Ding Shaoyan's eyes as he said sternly, "Auntie, I'll send someone to deal with Da Hong right away!"

"By the time you deal with it, it'll be too late." Luo Caiyun said, "Da Hong has already been killed by a car accident, and furthermore, Wang Lili committed suicide by jumping off a building. With this matter having reached this point apart from the five of you, there's no one else who knows anything anymore!"

Ding Shaoyan and the others exchanged glances. Luo Caiyun might have put it lightly, but they knew well that Da Hong getting killed in a car accident and Wang Lili's suicide were definitely no mere coincidences. Thus said, Luo Caiyun had managed, in such a short span, to eliminate Jia Zhengze, Da Hong, and Wang Lili—erasing all leads.

Even if Ye Qing wanted to investigate, he had no clue where to start.

"Mom, you really do think of everything!" Young Master Fang exclaimed joyously, "So you're saying, Ye Qing is dead in the water regarding tracing this back to us?"

Luo Caiyun coldly responded, "As long as the five of you don't speak of this matter, Ye Qing can't trace it back to you!"

"Mom, how could we possibly spill the beans ourselves!" Young Master Fang looked at the other four and said, "From now on, we'll bury this incident deep inside and won't speak of it to anyone. Even in his dreams, Ye Qing wouldn't imagine that we were behind this."

Ding Shaoyan sneered, "Ye Qing is probably going crazy as we speak!"

"Exactly, exactly, Ye Qing is probably dying of anger by now!" Young Master Fang said excitedly, "Damn, I really wish I could see that bastard's furious face. Do you think he might just faint from rage?"

"Enough!" Luo Caiyun helplessly waved her hand. She had said so much just to impress upon these five the seriousness of the situation. Yet, the outcome was completely contrary to what she had expected—these five simply didn't take the matter seriously at all.

"All five of you be careful; Ye isn't a good person. If he goes mad, he is capable of doing anything. If he finds out about this matter, none of you will have an easy time!" Luo Caiyun spoke in a severe tone, "I know each of your families has its background and connections, but what you did this time is truly shameful. If word of this reaches your families, who knows what the consequences will be!"

As Luo Caiyun spoke, she glanced at Young Master Fang and said in a heavy voice, "If your dad finds out about this, I bet he wouldn't need Ye to lay a hand on you; your dad would beat you to death himself!"

Young Master Fang's face changed, and he said in a low voice, "Don't bring him up, he never treated me like a son. Last time when someone slit my wrist, he even went to apologize to them and had no intention of avenging me. Sometimes I even wonder if I'm really his biological son!"

"Slap!" Luo Caiyun slapped Young Master Fang across the face and scolded, "Watch your language!"

Young Master Ding and the other three couldn't help but snicker. By saying this, wasn't Young Master Fang implying that his mother, Luo Caiyun, had been unfaithful? This guy really had no filter when he spoke.

Young Master Fang realized he had misspoken and quickly corrected himself, "Mom, that's not what I meant, don't be mad. I... I just think dad is too cruel to me; what kind of father treats his son like that?"

Luo Caiyun didn't say a word, she too felt that Fang Cailiang was too strict with his son. In her heart, if her son did something wrong, it was better to educate him gradually. But first, she needed to protect her son, only then would there be a chance to continue his education.

Just like with this incident, the first thing she had done was to try eliminating all the evidence to protect her son, rather than scold him first.

Luo Caiyun said in a stern voice, "I won't say more, but be careful, and make sure this doesn't get out. Otherwise, none of you will have an easy time, understand?"

"Aunt, rest assured, we will definitely keep it a secret!" said Young Master Ding.

"That's best!" Luo Caiyun stood up, glanced at Young Master Fang and said sternly, "If you don't want your dad to scold you, you'd better go home early. Staying out all night, how can he not scold you?"

"Alright, mom, I get it, I'll go home early tonight!" Young Master Fang half-heartedly ushered Luo Caiyun out the door, closed it, turned to the four and spread his arms excitedly, "Guys, we're off the hook!"

Young Master Ding and the others were also delighted. If Luo Caiyun hadn't smoothed everything over, they would really have been in big trouble.

Luo Caiyun didn't linger there and left the building directly. Shortly after her departure, a man walked into Shangguan Qing's office on the top floor.

"Second Gang Leader, there is a video here you need to see," said the man.

"What video?" Shangguan Qing asked impatiently but still opened his laptop and played the video.

The video displayed the room where Young Master Fang and his friends were. This private club, owned by the Tianqing Gang, had extremely hidden pinhole cameras installed in every room to secretly film some VIPs for future leverage. The cameras were so cleverly hidden that even a professional with lots of experience would find them hard to locate, as they were embedded within the walls.

In the footage, Young Master Fang and the others in the room were engaged in indecent activities with some girls. Shangguan Qing watched for a while and said, "What's so interesting about this? Let me know when Fang Cailiang does something like this in the room, then show it to me!"

Young Master Fang was just a child; Fang Cailiang was the one who controlled Fang Corporation, and catching him in a compromising position would indeed be valuable.

The man laughed and said, "Second Gang Leader, hold on, just keep watching."

Shangguan Qing, trying to stay patient, continued watching. After a while, his expression grew more solemn because Luo Caiyun had entered the room and was discussing Wang Lili's matter with Young Master Fang and others.

After watching the entire video, Shangguan Qing immediately sat up straight and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"

"I've already called and asked our brothers, and I've learned about the situation," said the man.

The man slowly recounted the matter involving Wang Lili. Shangguan Qing, being a shrewd person, immediately understood what had happened.

"This Luo Caiyun really is ruthless, a woman able to do such crazy things!" Shangguan Qing slowly furrowed his brow, looking at the screen showing Young Master Ding, Young Master Fang, and others, wondering what was really going on.
