Chapter 856: No More Me
Suizi thought long and hard, there were many paths to take, but the only one that could satisfy both sides was to have Fourth Master acknowledge Jinnan as his sworn sister.
"Jinnan was almost made a Second-Road Marshal, and although she’s not highly regarded by Yu Youchan, everyone on the street knows who she is. Dad has now completely washed his hands of the underworld affairs, and getting involved again, both morally and logically, would be inappropriate."
Suizi had to oversee the whole situation, thinking more about every aspect.
The kidnapping of Old Master Hu seemed suspicious no matter how one looked at it.
If this was just a dispute over territory on the streets, kidnapping the head of the family wouldn’t make much sense, and it would be more straightforward to just kill the hostages.
It seemed more like someone was setting a trap to lure out Fourth Master.
Fourth Master’s current identity was that of a mine owner and a consultant for a state-owned foreign mining company, a status that was not suitable for getting involved in underworld affairs.
"You suspect—" Yu Jingting narrowed his eyes, realizing his wife had come to the same conclusion as him.
Suizi nodded.
"This matter is not that simple, it’s targeted at Dad, and I believe Dad must understand this too, it’s just...."
Suizi firmly believed that her father-in-law’s astuteness exceeded hers. The crafty and calculating Fourth Master surely wasn’t oblivious to these matters.
