At this moment, the trader who narrowly escaped disaster due to his health, saw his compatriots being killed by those people on his way back, and quickly turned to flee. He felt lucky, lucky to be very familiar with this area, so he hid in a safe place before they could discover him. He watched helplessly as his compatriots were tortured and killed by those people. This man did not know that their manipulation of the Shanghai stock market had failed. He thought that these people, afraid they would spread the word, wanted to kill them to silence them. After adjusting his mindset, he only dared to come out from hiding after those people all left. He didn’t dare stay there any longer and hurriedly turned around and ran away. Not knowing how far he had run, he stopped, gasping for breath. From this deal, he had earned a lot from a mysterious man, enough to last him half a lifetime. So, he had a bold decision in his heart—to leave Shanghai. After confirming that the surroundings were safe, he walked leisurely on the street, thinking about where to hide. Suddenly, the sound of a fight came from a small alley not far ahead, scaring him so much he shivered, wanting to turn and run. But as soon as he turned around, he saw an unexpected guest standing behind him. The person standing behind him was Huo Tianqian’s trusted subordinate, Ah Hu. He had come over specifically because he heard there was fighting on their territory, not expecting to meet an old friend here. "Yo, isn’t this Ah Peng? What brings you here with nothing better to do?" Ah Hu and Ah Peng had known each other since childhood and had even been neighbors for many years, but their relationship was always fraught, and they couldn’t stand each other. Ah Peng looked coldly at Ah Hu. Ever since Ah Hu started following Master Huo, he had become even more arrogant in front of him, and even his family began comparing him to Ah Hu. He had been holding this resentment in his heart for a long time. Ah Peng felt a sense of pride for the big things he had done recently. He raised his chin and looked at Ah Hu with arrogance, "Brother, considering our many years of friendship, I’m here to tell you that I’ve recently made a lot of money, done a big business." Ah Hu glared at him, "Who’s your brother? Speak politely!" However, Ah Hu was curious because Ah Peng had been mediocre all his life and had never done well in several jobs even President Gong wasn’t impressed by, and had even been fired by the boss several times. And now he says he’s made a lot of money? "Ha, are you bragging? What big thing can you do? What big money can you make?" Ah Peng knew Ah Hu wouldn’t believe him. He snorted lightly, arrogantly raising his chin, "Do you know how the recent financial crisis in Shanghai was monopolized?" Ah Hu was taken aback. Recently, many corporations in Shanghai had been paralyzed, some even declaring bankruptcy, and even their business had become bleak. "What do you mean? Do you know something?" Ah Hu looked at Ah Peng’s confident demeanor, feeling a hint of suspicion. "Not only do I know, but I’m also one of the traders." Ah Peng spoke with great pride, slightly raising his chin with eyes full of disdain, "Do you know how much money I made from this? This amount! You might not see this much money in your lifetime!" Ah Peng extended two fingers towards Ah Hu, his tone filled with ridicule and arrogance, "Two million, a whole two million. Even if you worked for Master Huo your entire life, you wouldn’t make this much!" Ah Hu squinted at Ah Peng. He knew Ah Peng had been timid and weak since childhood, unable to accomplish big things, but there was one thing—his proficiency in computers and the stock market. Previously, due to a lack of money, he had rarely ventured into the stock market, and with his family’s control, he couldn’t access it. "Are you saying that this turmoil involved some of your manipulation?" The mastermind certainly couldn’t be him, as this was not a minor issue and required a great deal of manpower and resources. Ah Hu looked at him curiously, "Ah Peng, is everything you’re saying true?" Ah Peng nodded, "How could it be fake? I knew you wouldn’t believe it. In your eyes, you think I’m good for nothing. Now that I’m making more money than you, aren’t you feeling uncomfortable?" Ah Hu wasn’t clear on the exact situation of the financial crisis in Shanghai, but he knew that if Ah Peng was involved, his situation wouldn’t be optimistic. "Ah Peng, having done such a big thing, are you sure you’re safe?" Ah Hu suddenly asked. Ah Peng was stunned and then relaxed a bit, "Ah Hu, what do you know? The bosses above can’t trace us, how could they possibly trace me?" Moreover, all the other traders have already been killed, leaving only him. As long as he doesn’t speak, no one will know! "Ah Peng, you know what you’re doing is illegal, right?" Worry flashed in Ah Hu’s eyes but was perceived as an insult by Ah Peng. "What nonsense are you spouting? Do you have proof?" Ah Peng suddenly became anxious, "If you don’t have proof, don’t make reckless claims!" "Hey! Watch your mouth!" A subordinate standing next to Ah Hu suddenly said, "You just told Brother Hu personally, now you want to renege?" Ah Peng glared at him, "It’s not your place to speak! Shut up!" Now, even his words carried strength, all because he had made a fortune, making him feel emboldened instantly. "Ah Peng, I know what you’re thinking, but if this thing comes back to you, you’re going to jail! Have you thought about your mother, about your grandmother?" "I don’t need you to come here and preach to me! I don’t need your false kindness! They don’t care about my life or death!" Ah Peng became agitated, snorting angrily, "I don’t need your pretentiousness, and I don’t need you to mind my business! Don’t forget, we’re enemies! We’ve been enemies since childhood!" Content orıginally comes from 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵 Ah Hu sighed helplessly, "Ah Peng, although we’ve been rivals since childhood, we still have some sentiment between us. Besides, the little quarrels between us were just child’s play in the eyes of the family." "What nonsense are you talking?" Ah Peng glared at him, enraged, "There’s no sentiment between us! No brotherly sentiment!"
