Chapter 2108 The Legacy of Mengde

In a secluded courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing, although it was late at night, a light was still on in one of the pavilions.

This is Hayato Tsunekawa's secret hideout. Under normal circumstances, no one except his closest confidants can enter.

But at this moment, in the attic, Hengchuan Daishi was sitting opposite him, looking somewhat anxious and worried.

"Hayato-kun, Uncle Thirteen has been arrested, what should we do?"

Hengchuan Dashi asked, sounding somewhat flustered.

Hayato Tsunekawa's face was grim, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as he stared at Daishi Tsunekawa and said, "Are you worried that Uncle Thirteen will sell you out?"

Cold sweat beaded on Hengchuan Daishi's temples, his face ashen. He said, "Hayato-kun, you should know the hatred the Chinese people have for us Japanese. Besides, we've been illegally mining rare earth right under their noses this time. They're bound to be furious. Uncle Thirteen... I'm afraid he can't hold out..."

Hayato Tsunekawa slowly withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I've already made arrangements for you. I'll send you away from China and back to the U.S. first thing tomorrow morning."

Taishi Tsunekawa was taken aback, then seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank you, Hayato-kun. I will definitely explain this to my father when I get back..."

Hayato Tsunekawa waved his hand impatiently and said, "You don't need to defend me. Just tell the truth. This accident was indeed caused by something."

Taishi Tsunekawa's eyes flashed, and he asked with some suspicion, "Hayato-kun already knows why things were exposed?"

Hayato Tsunekawa snorted and said, "Besides Pi Yangyang, there won't be anyone else."

"Pi Yangyang?" Hengchuan Dashi looked blank. "You mean Pi Yangyang, the chairman of the Huaxia Yan Group?"

A sharp glint flashed in Tsunekawa Hayato's eyes as he said in a low voice, "It's him! According to the intelligence I have, he has gone to the back mountain of Shiramura multiple times and delivered some soil to the testing institute..."

Hengchuan Daishi slammed his hand on the table in a fit of excitement and said angrily, "It's him again! Guanghua-jun died because of him! I never thought that this time it would be because of him that we would fail at the last minute."

"Hayato-kun, this man has always been the mortal enemy of our Hengchuan family. Father wishes he could tear him to pieces. Since you're in China, why don't you get rid of him?"

Hayato Tsunekawa's expression hardened. "You think I don't want to? I've fought him many times. He looks harmless, but he's actually a martial arts master! If I hadn't been lucky, I would have died at his hands back in the Snow Mountain Secret Realm."

"He's that good?" Hengchuan Daishi said in astonishment.

"You've heard about the desert base, haven't you? In all the years the base has been established, he and his companions are the only people who have ever come close to the base and survived!"

"Hayato Tsunekawa said through gritted teeth."

"I know that. The base even triggered the mechs back then, but they still managed to escape!"

Hengchuan Daishi nodded and said.

Hayato Tsunekawa breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is China. If I launch a large-scale manhunt, what do you think the chances of success are?"

Hengchuan Daishi hesitated for a moment, then said helplessly, "Then we can only watch him continue to oppose us?"

Hayato Tsunekawa smiled coldly, "We can only wait for the right opportunity. He will eventually make a mistake, and only then can we launch a fatal blow and succeed in one fell swoop."

Taishi Tsunekawa's eyes flashed, a cold glint appearing on his face. He slowly said, "Hayato-kun, I've heard that this man's wife is very beautiful... Is that true?"

Hayato Tsunekawa's brow twitched, and two cold glints flashed in his eyes as he stared intently at Daishi Tsunekawa, asking in a deep voice, "What... what do you mean?"

“Hayato-kun, everyone has a weakness!” Taishi Tsunekawa said sinisterly. “I think his wife might be his weakness. As long as we…”

"Shut up!"

Before Taishi Tsunekawa could finish speaking, Hayato Tsunekawa shouted, interrupting him.

Taishi Tsunekawa was startled and looked at Hayato Tsunekawa, whose face was full of anger, with disbelief. He asked in confusion, "Why are you angry, Hayato-kun?"

Hayato Tsunekawa stared intently at him and said, enunciating each word clearly, "I am in charge of affairs in China. I have a plan for everything. Without my orders, no one can touch anyone close to Pi Yangyang, especially his wife!"

Hengchuan Daishi glanced at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms displayed not far away and said in surprise, "Hayato-kun, you...you don't actually like his wife, do you?"

He knew very well that Cao Mengde in the book was Tsunekawa Hayato's idol.

Therefore, in many ways, he deliberately imitated this powerful figure in Chinese history, especially his peculiar fetish of liking married women.

When Tsunekawa Hayato took Takeuchi Kanako from Tsunekawa Toshihiko, it caused quite a stir in the Tsunekawa family.

Some people believe that Hayato Tsunegawa's actions were insubordinate and went too far.

The elders in the family even demanded that Toshihiko Tsunekawa revoke Hayato Tsunekawa's right to inherit the family business and recall him.

However, Toshihiko Tsunekawa's wife, Misa Miyazaki, stood up and firmly supported Hayato Tsunekawa in taking Kanako Takeuchi away.

Although the Tsunekawa family is a super family in Japan, the Miyazaki family is no less powerful than the Tsunekawa family; they just have different focuses in terms of industry.

The two families have always complemented each other, which is why they have been able to wield such influence in Japan and have a place on Wall Street.

Miyazaki Misa is also known for her jealousy; countless women have died at her hands.

If she discovers that Hengchuan Junyan is keeping a woman, she will stop at nothing to kill that woman.

Kanako Takeyu was originally studying in the United States and interned at the Lockheed Martin Foundation. She caught the eye of Toshihiko Tsunekawa, who then transferred her to his side.

This time, Toshihiko Tsunekawa took excellent care of Kanako Takeu.

Although Miyazaki Misa was aware of the relationship between the two, Tsunekawa Toshihiko was very discreet, and Miyazaki Misa was never able to obtain any evidence, so she had no opportunity to take action.

Originally, she had already transferred top assassins from the Miyazaki family some time ago, intending to kill Takeyu Kanako.

Unexpectedly, Tsunekawa Hayato actually took Takeuchi Kanako away.

Therefore, she felt that since Tsunekawa Hayato had unintentionally done her a great favor, how could she possibly ask Tsunekawa Toshihiko to transfer Tsunekawa Hayato back?

Some members of the Hengchuan family felt that this matter was a disgrace to the family, but because Miyazaki Misa was there, they could only let it go.

Hearing Taishi's question, Hayato looked at him coldly and said, "Taishi-kun, remember this: Pi Yangyang is our enemy, that's true. But his wife and family have no hatred towards us."

"We are both men. The wronged should have their culprits, and the debtors should be held accountable. If we want revenge, we should fight Pi Yangyang to the death in a fair and square fight! What kind of man would bring trouble upon his wife and children?"

These high-sounding words made Taishi Tsunekawa look guilty, and he lowered his head and said, "Hayato-kun is right! I misspoke, I'm sorry."

However, deep within his eyes, there was a clear hint of ruthlessness and resentment.

Only a fool would believe that one's wife and children should not be implicated in misfortune!

However, his expression conveyed a sense of being taught a lesson, and even guilt, which was very evident.

…………

Two days later, Pi Yangyang was indeed invited by a high-ranking official to attend a banquet and give an exclusive interview to reporters.

Although he was extremely unwilling, it was an invitation from higher-ups, so he couldn't refuse.

Fortunately, Guo Weiguo and Professor Xu also received invitations, and the three of them went together, which saved me from feeling awkward at the time.

It was Pi Yangyang's first time visiting a banquet hall in Beijing used to receive foreign guests. Besides feeling nervous, he was also a little excited.

This is a place that many people would never dare to dream of in their entire lives, but he entered it.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall, dozens of reporters, carrying cameras and microphones, surrounded them.

Fortunately, Su Xueqing and Lan Bowen gave him emergency training in the past two days, which made him much more relaxed when facing a group of reporters.

After giving random interviews to reporters and then participating in an exclusive interview with national television, the banquet officially began.

Senior leaders looked at Pi Yangyang with great appreciation, showering him with praise such as "young and promising, a role model for youth."

This high-ranking leader even said that if the Yan Group encountered any difficulties, they could come to him, and he would do his best to help solve them.

They also inquired with great interest about the main industries and products of the Yan Group.

They were even more impressed when they learned that the Yan Group was currently focused on pharmaceuticals and that its products had already entered the markets of South Korea and Japan.

Throughout the banquet, Pi Yangyang was showered with compliments. He didn't drink much, but he was already feeling a bit dizzy.
