Chapter 1497: Cutting Off the Source
Upon hearing Chai Ganglie’s arrangement, the elders who had followed him for years immediately understood his intention.
Eliminate the problem at its source!
He actually plans to secretly contact the unpopular children of Baili Xi and personally incite them to overthrow the Baili Family together!
The saying goes, an open attack is easier to avoid, but a hidden one is hard to guard against. His smile hides a knife; this is definitely scheming enough that Baili Xi would never dream of Chai Ganglie making a move on his children to deal with him!
In history, those who accomplish great things are always ruthless and use harsh means!
Chai Ganglie has been wanting to expand the Chai Family’s influence outward for a long time!
Over the years, the Chai Family has dominated Jiangzhong, but it no longer satisfies his swelling ambitions!
However, giants in other provinces are not easy beats either, whether it be acting rashly or having no legitimate reason.
Finally, he’s found an opportunity to make a move against Jiangdong!
"Xiao Rong, did you hear that? Hurry and follow your grandpa’s instructions! Do you remember that Baili Li’s phone number? Call her quickly!" Fu Dafen, upon hearing her father-in-law’s words, promptly turned and urged her son.
"That b***h, she screwed me over so badly. I would recognize her even if she turned to dust; of course, I remember the phone number!"
Chai Rong gritted his teeth.
His fall to this state was ultimately due to Baili Li, and now his vital part was injured by Jiang Feng. But he swore that once he recovered, he would torment Baili Li to the brink of death, then discard her into the cheapest brothel in Jiangzhong as a prostitute!
"Alright, here’s my phone. Call her quickly!" Fu Dafen hurriedly took out her phone and handed it to her son.
Chai Rong wasted no words, sitting on the ground, dialing Baili Li’s number.
Once connected, a rather pleasant and elegant female voice came through: "Hello, who is this?"
"Baili Li, do you still remember me?!" Chai Rong asked with a forced smile.
Baili Li was instantly shocked, taking quite a while to react: "Rong... Brother Rong? Is it Brother Rong?!"
She could hardly believe her ears!
After the incident that day, Chai Rong, in a fit of rage, kicked her aside impatiently. She even thought Chai Rong would never contact or want her again!
For this, she lamented for a long time, increasingly hating Jiang Feng to the core!
Unexpectedly, Chai Rong actually reached out to her again now!
"Good that you can still recognize my voice, proving my kindness wasn’t in vain!" Chai Rong sneered.
"Brother Rong, how could you say that? Even if I forgot everyone else in the world, I wouldn’t forget you! That day..." Baili Li hurriedly tried to butter him up, wanting to explain.
"Let’s not talk about that day!"
Chai Rong interrupted: "I thought it over carefully; you’re not to blame for that day. I was just too angry, and I was harsh towards you. Don’t take it to heart."
Baili Li was overwhelmed, almost moved to tears, and spoke emotionally: "Brother Rong, how could you apologize to me? Clearly, it is the Baili Family that wronged you. My grandpa is too unkind, only ever seeing Jiang Feng and Baili Xiyue, never valuing me at all; otherwise, how could he involve you too..."
"Enough!"
Chai Rong impatiently: "Now, there’s something I want to understand; your grandpa is focused only on Jiang Feng, ignoring your dad or uncle, right? Have they been neglected for a long time?"
"Ah, Brother Rong, how did you know?" Baili Li was startled.
Her parents and uncle and aunt were not just neglected by Baili Xi for a long time; they were about to be treated as outsiders.
It’s as if Jiang Feng is the biological one, while they are merely parasites of the family!
For this, her father Baili Long recently has even been secretly contacting Third Brother Baili Bo to plot a power seizure together, but it’s all just brewing now.
Chai Rong’s sudden mention of her father Baili Long truly startled her!
"Here’s the thing, I also observed your parents carefully the other day, finding that they seem to have some discontent with their current position in the Baili Family. So, give me their contact information, and I’ll talk to them." Chai Rong sneered.
"Brother Rong, isn’t that improper? What do you want to say? I could pass the message for you..." Baili Li didn’t quite understand why Chai Rong suddenly wanted to contact her parents, and what was there to talk about?
"I told you to give it to me, so just give it! Stop nagging!" Chai Rong’s true nature revealed: "Quickly! Don’t irritate me!"
"Ah, okay..."
Baili Li wouldn’t dare waste more words and quickly sent her father’s phone number over.
Finally, she sweetly said over the phone: "Brother Rong, I’m glad you don’t hold a grudge; I’m truly moved~ When you have time to come to Jiangdong again, I will definitely compensate you well, letting you regain your lost manhood capabilities..."
"Got it!"
Chai Rong hung up disgustedly; that vile woman really was shameless!
But admittedly, Baili Li’s last seductive remark did stir his desires somewhat.
It felt as if the abilities he had lost were gradually reawakening.
"Grandpa, this is Baili Li’s dad, Baili Long’s number!"
Chai Rong passed the phone to his mother, then Fu Dafen handed the phone to Chai Ganglie.
Chai Ganglie glanced at the number, sneering, then stood up and walked to the back, turning his back on the clansmen, and started contacting Baili Long.
Due to the distance, no one could hear clearly what he was saying, but Baili Long’s initial shock and disbelief quickly turned to delighted surprise!
Inside, he kept nodding and agreeing: "Yes! What you said makes sense... I’ll follow your advice! Yes, my brother and I are willing to cooperate with you... There’s indeed favoritism... Great! We look forward to your arrival!... It’s such an honor... You’re truly heaven-sent help!"
After finishing the call, Chai Ganglie hung up, walked back, and tossed the phone to Fu Dafen.
"Grandpa, what did you say to Baili Long?" Chai Rong asked curiously.
"You’ll know very soon." Chai Ganglie kept it a secret, calmly saying: "Alright, head back to your place and rest. I’ll have the family doctor take good care of you. You’re young; this injury shouldn’t be an issue, and once recovered, I’ll personally take you to reclaim your lost dignity!"
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Chai Rong eagerly climbed up after hearing, then, under his mother Fu Dafen’s concerned support, stumbled step by step out of the assembly hall.
"Baili Xi, you brought this upon yourself, don’t blame me!"
Chai Ganglie’s gaze fixed on the direction of Jiangdong outside, sneering, his face ghoulish, he ominously said!
