230: Chapter 230: The Allegiance of the Ouyang Family 230: Chapter 230: The Allegiance of the Ouyang Family Xiang Yu had slapped that judge four times, and everyone was somewhat puzzled as to what kind of grudge Xiang Yu had against the judge in front of him.
Two armed police stood by, intending to let Xiang Yu go, but Xiang Yu was being too arrogant, making it difficult for them.
Just as they were about to step forward to seize Xiang Yu, he pushed the man aside and said, “You’re Zhang Xin, right?
It was you who sold Judge Pan’s information to the bad guys, and they even transferred 500,000 to your bank card, asking you to persuade old Pan.
Moreover, they promised that after this matter, you’d take old Pan’s place.”
Xiang Yu’s words stunned everyone present, and they all had one question on their minds: Who exactly was this young man, and how did he know so much?
Zhang Xin was the first to react, then jumped up and pointed at Xiang Yu, shouting, “You’re talking nonsense, you’re framing me.
Old Pan, don’t believe him; he’s just here to sow discord.
You two, hurry up and arrest him; this man is here to cause trouble today.”
Zhang Xin was completely panicked.
Although what Xiang Yu had said was not entirely true, he had indeed accepted 300,000 from Ouyang Ke and had betrayed old Pan.
Because the other party had promised that they would make old Pan step down after this affair.
The people around didn’t speak, just watched Zhang Xin with a somewhat cold demeanor.
“Old Pan, you must believe me.
We have been friends for twenty years; can’t you see past his few words?” Zhang Xin pleaded desperately.
But the more desperate he became, the more people believed what Xiang Yu had said was true.
After slapping him a few times, Xiang Yu no longer paid attention to him and then walked up to old Pan with a serious expression, “Your family is safe now, but let me warn you, you must be fair and just in handling cases in the future.
If I ever find out you’ve been unfair, I will never let you go.”
Having said that, Xiang Yu no longer paid attention to the others and turned to leave, leaving a crowd standing there, dumbfounded.
As for people like Zhang Xin, Xiang Yu couldn’t care less about them; he was just a small-time crook.
Now that he had exposed Zhang Xin’s true nature, old Pan would definitely not let him off.
Tie Zhuzi and Ouyang Xiu followed Xiang Yu and left together.
Tie Zhuzi couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Yu, how did you know about the judge’s situation?”
“Guessed it,” Xiang Yu smiled, then got into the car.
The group was headed towards the headquarters of the Ouyang Family Company.
Now that Ouyang Ke was finished, it was time for Ouyang Xiu to take back everything that belonged to him.
As they were halfway there, they just happened to see that the police had already blocked the road ahead.
In the middle of the road ahead was an armored vehicle, and in that vehicle was Ouyang Ke.
But by now, Ouyang Ke was lying in the back of the vehicle, his head had been shot through, blood streaming down, clearly he had died not long ago.
Seeing this, Ouyang Xiu was shocked.
Ouyang Ke had already been sentenced to death, he hadn’t expected him to die right here.
He turned to look at Xiang Yu, wanting to ask something, but seeing Xiang Yu’s composed face, as if not bothered by the event, he chose to remain silent.
“Ouyang Ke was sentenced to death, that’s true, but with a two-year suspension.
This suspension means he wouldn’t die, and in time, with a few maneuvers, he could be out in a few years, only to come out and cause more harm.
It’s better to let him die here,” Xiang Yu said calmly.
“Brother Yu is right, it should be this way,” Tie Zhuzi chimed in quickly.
Tie Zhuzi had been following Xiang Yu the longest.
He was certain that this was a job done by Xiao Xuan at Xiang Yu’s behest, and the fact that Xiao Xuan hadn’t shown up today further proved the point.
Tie Zhuzi didn’t say much, just felt incredibly pleased inside, almost bursting into song.
He held back this impulse, fearing that singing might be too much for Xiang Yu and the others.
However, Ouyang Xiu wasn’t particularly happy; after all, Ouyang Ke was his uncle.
If possible, he truly wished Ouyang Ke would spend his life in prison.
But he knew that what Xiang Yu had said was true.
With Ouyang Ke’s influence, if he didn’t die, he would soon be out of prison and be a huge problem once again.
Xiang Yu and the others arrived at the Ouyang Family’s headquarters, which used to be managed by Ouyang Ke.
Stepping into this place again, Ouyang Xiu felt a surge of emotions.
They brought their lawyer with them, so the process wasn’t too complicated.
From that moment, Ouyang Xiu had officially taken over the Ouyang Family.
Sitting in his office, Ouyang Xiu felt somewhat uneasy.
“Yu, why don’t you manage this with me?
Without you, I feel uneasy,” Ouyang Xiu said with an awkward smile.
After all, he had previously been nothing but a frivolous heir with little experience in managing a company.
Suddenly being put in charge of a large company and family, he was nervous and unsure of what to do.
“Why are you acting like a woman, acting all hesitant at your age?” Tie Zhuzi laughed heartily.
“Ouyang Xiu, you’re the boss now.
You have to believe in yourself, believe in your abilities.
I can’t always stand by your side to help you.
But I think there’s someone who can,” Xiang Yu said, finishing with a smile.
“Who?” Ouyang Xiu asked excitedly, knowing that anyone Xiang Yu recommended would be exceptional.
Tie Zhuzi also looked at Xiang Yu with some confusion, harboring a slight worry that Xiang Yu might ask him to stay and follow Ouyang Xiu, something he would definitely not agree to.
“Zhang Hongbo,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.
Both Ouyang Xiu and Tie Zhuzi smiled when they heard the name Zhang Hongbo.
It had to be said that although Zhang was young, he was cunning and articulate.
Having him by Ouyang Xiu’s side would indeed be helpful.
“This kid is quite lecherous and seems to have a keen sense of money.
You talk to him yourself,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.
Ouyang Xiu already had a plan in mind.
To keep Zhang, he would have to exploit his weaknesses, and the points Xiang Yu mentioned were precisely Zhang’s fatal flaws.
Ouyang was confident he could win Zhang over.
After discussing this, Ouyang Xiu suddenly became serious, “Yu, we had an agreement.
I promised to give you half of the Ouyang Family’s property, and I keep my word.
In fact, I want to transfer all the assets to your name.
They should belong to you.”
Ouyang Xiu’s sincerity was apparent, with no pretense.
It was clear that after everything that had happened, he viewed money much less significantly.
“Of course, I’ll still take my share,” Xiang Yu said and then coughed, “Just that piece of land.
Tie Zhuzi was drinking water and nearly choked.
He had thought Xiang Yu would graciously say a few polite words and then refuse, but to his surprise, today’s Yu was quite ungenerous, which made him somewhat puzzled.
“No problem,” Ouyang Xiu laughed.
For Xiang Yu to ask for that piece of land, Ouyang Xiu was pleased because he felt indebted to Xiang Yu.
To be able to give him what he wanted made him feel honored, and with Xiang Yu’s direct request, he treated him as a brother…
