Chapter 273 - 274: Miao Qingqing’s Status
Jin Long was indeed very annoyed and quite angry. He had been dominating the area for so long, and truly, no one had ever dared to provoke him like this. Not only had someone beaten up his men, but they had also extorted ten million from him. That was simply unbearable.
It was not easy to find Song Xiaodong from the photo, as not many people knew him, but finding Miao Xuanxuan was much easier. Miao Qingqing was quite famous throughout the entire city.
At just twenty-four, she was already the president of a company worth over two billion and was so beautiful—how could she not attract attention? Miao Qingqing was even privately called the most man-crazing woman in the entirety of Tiannan City.
Thus, Miao Xuanxuan’s photo was quickly identified as Miao Qingqing.
Qian Zizai frowned and said, "So it’s that woman. No wonder that guy was so confident."
"What of it? Even if the Miao family’s company is huge, if they cross me, I won’t make it easy for them. I’ll arrange for her to be kidnapped right away," Jin Long said through gritted teeth.
Qian Zizai shook his head and said, "Brother Long, if she was just wealthy, that would be one thing, but her social status is there. If we touch her, the societal impact will be huge. Those of us in this line of work are, after all, supposed to stay in the shadows. We can be covered by officials on the surface, but if we target Miao Qingqing, the whole of Tiannan City would be shaken. I’m afraid we couldn’t bear the consequences."
People like Jin Long who mixed in the underworld could not afford to provoke government action. Usually, as long as they did not go overboard and were involved in some beneficial deals, everyone turned a blind eye. But if they truly angered those above, and those officials decided to crack down, even if their power was immense, they could not stand against the government; the only outcome would be a dead end.
In the eyes of city leaders, a positive star enterprise was far more important than someone like Jin Long.
Jin Long understood all this, but he found the indignity hard to swallow and said, "So what, I just swallow this loss?"
