Chapter 2776 Investigating Qi Yaqiu's Death

“You should be worried about yourself,” Yang Yuxin continued.

"What do I have to worry about?"

"Yang Guoqiang knew Yang Zhihao wasn't very bright, so why did he entrust the entire underground force to him? And how was the not-so-bright Yang Zhihao able to control such a large underground force?"

"The most important thing in the underworld is loyalty, and the only thing Yang Zhihao can be proud of is loyalty."

"He is a very loyal person, but also a vengeful and vindictive person. You shut down his place and arrested his brothers this time, so he hates you to death."

"Why did he threaten the police? It was out of revenge. If Yang Zhijie hadn't stopped him at the beginning, he wouldn't have threatened them; he would have killed them directly."

“Now that he knows you were behind all of this, knowing him as I do, he will definitely find a way to get revenge on you.”

"Of course, Yang Guoqiang must have guessed this as well, so he specially called Yang Zhihao back today and told him about the consequences of messing with you, giving him a heads-up."

"With Yang Guoqiang's orders, Yang Zhihao certainly won't dare to do anything to you for the time being, but he's not quite right in the head, and nobody knows when he might do something incomprehensible, so you have to be careful."

"Compared to Yang Zhihao, the real danger is Yang Zhijie. On the surface, Yang Zhijie seems much more peaceful than Yang Zhihao, but he is the real insidious villain, more ruthless and more vengeful than anyone else."

"Ever since you came to Shazhou, he has been targeting you and trying every means to frame you. Of course, he does this for the sake of Lixin Group, but it is certain that it is also because he hates you and wants to kill you."

"You've made him suffer such a huge loss again, and he's lost to you once more. He must hate you even more and want to kill you even more."

“Yang Zhihao is an idiot who only does stupid things, but Yang Zhijie is different; he plays dirty tricks, so you must be careful.”

“Qi Yaqiu was killed because Yang Zhijie instigated Yang Zhihao to do it,” Yang Yuxin said.

Yang Yuxin said all this to remind Qin Feng to be careful, because she felt that Qin Feng had been recklessly provoking the Yang family recently, and she was very worried about him.

"How much do you know about Qi Yaqiu's death?" Qin Feng asked Yang Yuxin seriously.

Yang Yuxin didn't expect Qin Feng to ask this question. She said she just wanted to get Qin Feng's attention, but she didn't expect Qin Feng to be interested in Qi Yaqiu's death.

Yang Yuxin smiled at Qin Feng but did not say anything.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Qin Feng asked.

"Are you investigating Qi Yaqiu's death? Or to put it more directly, is investigating the real cause of Qi Yaqiu's death a task given to you by the capital?" Yang Yuxin asked Qin Feng in return.

Qin Feng was surprised that Yang Yuxin was so smart that she could even guess this.

"Regardless of whether it's a task assigned to me from above, I must find out the cause of Qi Yaqiu's death." Qin Feng avoided Yang Yuxin's question.

Yang Yuxin smiled and said, "What I can tell you is that Qi Yaqiu was killed by Yang Zhihao's men. It was probably Yang Zhijie who instigated that brainless idiot Yang Zhihao."

“It’s not a secret in the Yang family, but it’s just talk. I have no evidence, and I can’t possibly have any,” Yang Yuxin said.

"Are you saying that Yang Guoqiang was unaware of the killing of Qi Yaqiu?" Qin Feng asked.

"I can give you a definite answer to this. Yang Guoqiang really didn't know about this. He only found out after Yang Zhihao sent someone to kill Qi Yaqiu. He was so angry that he immediately had Yang Zhihao locked up in the underground storage room of the Yang family's old house, which was actually a dungeon."

"After locking up Yang Zhihao, Yang Guoqiang immediately silenced everyone who knew about or was involved in the incident, and then made a phone call to that person in the province."

"Shortly after making the call, he took me and Yin Da to Xidu. In order to settle this matter and save Yang Zhihao, Yang Guoqiang acted like a complete lackey in Xidu for several days and even gave away one-fifth of his family fortune before the matter was finally settled."

"Yang Guoqiang released Yang Zhihao from the dungeon after returning from Xidu. I remember Yang Guoqiang saying something to Yang Zhihao at the time: he said that if the Yang family were ever wiped out, it would all be because of the stupid thing Yang Zhihao did this time."

"With Yang Guoqiang's intelligence, there's no way he would do something as stupid as killing the mayor. If he wants to deal with Qi Yaqiu, he has plenty of ways."

"Don't even mention Yang Guoqiang, Yang Zhijie alone could make you suffer, let alone Qi Yaqiu, who is even more straightforward than you?"

"So I can tell you with certainty that killing Qi Yaqiu has nothing to do with Yang Guoqiang, nor was it Yang Guoqiang's wish. The real culprit is actually Yang Zhijie, who ordered Yang Zhihao to do it. As for why he wanted to kill Qi Yaqiu, I don't know," Yang Yuxin said.

Qin Feng looked at Yang Yuxin and could tell that she definitely knew more about the specifics of Qi Yaqiu's death, but since she wouldn't say anything, Qin Feng couldn't ask any further questions.

Just then, Yang Yuxin's phone rang.

Yang Yuxin glanced at it, then waved her phone at Qin Feng. The screen displayed the name Yang Zhijie.

"The phone's ringing, it's definitely someone yelling at me." Yang Yuxin laughed as she answered the call, put it on speakerphone, and placed the phone on the table.

"Speak, what is it?" Yang Yuxin asked.

"Yang Yuxin, what exactly did you and that bastard Qin Feng talk about?" Yang Zhijie asked angrily.

"What exactly happened?" Yang Yuxin asked knowingly.

"Didn't you tell me they were just going through the motions? Why did they bring so many people? And the news media too? What exactly is he trying to do?" Yang Zhijie roared on the phone.

“Such a big thing as investigating your Lixin Hotel, they should definitely publicize it, right? Leaders, you know, they all care about their image and their achievements, it’s understandable,” Yang Yuxin said.

"Does he care about his reputation, but doesn't our Yang family care about ours? If this gets out, what will the people of Shazhou think of us? Yang Yuxin, tell him right now that not a single word about the Cha Lixin Hotel incident is to be reported." Yang Zhijie shouted.

"Is face more important or life?" Yang Yuxin replied calmly.

"Fine, let's just leave it at that. But tell me, why is he still demanding that Lixin Hotel suspend operations for rectification and be fined 500,000 yuan?"

"I already gave him a huge favor by agreeing to let him in to investigate. What does he mean by pulling this stunt now? Does he really think our Yang family is easy to bully?"

"Yang Yuxin, how did you talk to him?"

"Tell Qin Feng that I can't accept the suspension of business for rectification and the fine. Letting him in for investigation is the biggest concession I can make. If he still doesn't know what's good for him, then don't blame me for being impolite." Yang Zhijie's words were very cold, showing that Qin Feng's actions today were indeed unbearable for him.
