"There’s news you might not know yet. Tang Yushen was suddenly released from prison upon completion of his term,"
Tang Yuchen was stunned. He narrowed his eyes and asked uncertainly, "What did you say?"
"Tang Yushen was released from prison. He was freed yesterday, and I only received the news today."
A person sentenced to life imprisonment was suddenly released—how could that be possible.
But he knew Liang Xiao wouldn’t lie to him. That man had indeed been released.
"What exactly happened?" Tang Yuchen asked coldly.
Liang Xiao indifferently replied, "It is said that he showed good behavior and even helped the police dismantle some criminal groups by turning in his crimes. Also, many of the offenses he committed have been overturned over these ten years, so he was released early."
There’s no doubt that someone was secretly helping him from the outside, and those people must be the confidants he had who weren’t uncovered back then.
Aside from his confidants, no one would help him.
Because helping him was to stand against Tang Yuchen himself.
"I understand," the man responded with a depth in his eyes and a hint of chill in his tone, "Even if he is released, he won’t be able to stir up any trouble."
Today’s him was no longer the Tang Yuchen of the past.
Tang Yushen’s release changes nothing; he was still an underling who had been defeated.
"But you should still be cautious of him. He’s not an easy person to deal with."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Yuchen leaned against the leather swivel chair, his dark eyes flashing with a cold gleam—or perhaps a trace of murderous intent.
His eyes shifted slightly as he dialed his subordinate’s number, instructing him to check on Tang Yushen’s whereabouts.
’Sea Emperor’ is an entertainment venue not much different from ’Ming Dian.’
However, most of those who frequent Sea Emperor are from the underworld.
In the dimly lit and noisy private room, decadence pervaded.
The door to the private room was pushed open, and the noisy atmosphere immediately fell silent.
Tang Yuchen walked in leisurely holding an opened bottle of wine in one hand and a wine glass in the other.
The group inside immediately became alert, watching him intently, ready to pounce at any movement he made.
Only Tang Yushen, sitting at the center, remained composed. He curled his lips and said calmly, "Oh, isn’t this the current CEO of Tang’s, my younger brother Tang Yuchen? What brings you here today?"
Tang Yuchen walked up to him with a smile and sat down next to him.
He lifted his legs and casually threw them onto the coffee table, lounging back with ease.
"What else could it be but the news of your early release? I’ve come to congratulate you. So, aren’t you going to welcome me?" he said lazily, looking sideways at the man beside him, his tone laced with disdainful scorn.
A sharp look crossed Tang Yushen’s eyes, but he smiled and nodded, "Of course, you’re welcome."
Tang Yuchen poured a glass of wine into his cup, smiling, "This is a red wine I’ve cherished for ten years, opened especially for you. You’ve been in prison for a decade, you probably haven’t had any wine, right? Look, as soon as I heard you were out, I brought the good wine over for you to drink. How about it, would you like to try it?"
Tang Yushen stared at the wine in the cup but did not reach for it.
The atmosphere in the private room suddenly became heavy and stifling, as if any small movement could trigger an explosion.
Tang Yuchen watched him, waiting for his response.
The smile on Tang Yushen’s lips slowly faded, his gaze turning cold and piercing. Naturally cautious and suspicious, he dared not drink the wine Tang Yuchen offered.
Tang Yuchen maintained a playful smile, watching his reaction intently.
