The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign

Chapter 575 - 563: Crazy Plan!

A plan?

Listening to Bao Qiudong’s urgent question, Chen Tiansheng licked his lips. He walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down. Below, a young man with Southeast Asian features was being dragged from the arena by several staff members. Clearly, his life had been snuffed out.

"An underground death match?" Chen Tiansheng asked, frowning at the scene below before answering Bao Qiudong’s question.

"Yes. They all sign a death waiver before getting in the ring. I never force anyone. The black guy was a recent find; the odds on him were one to 1.2. The man from Thailand has won eighteen straight matches here, so his odds were one to 0.8. There were about ten million bet on the Thai fighter for this match. All told, this fight earned me around three million," Bao Qiudong said. He wasn’t rushing Chen Tiansheng for an answer; he knew that if he was meant to know, Chen Tiansheng would eventually tell him.

"You’re telling me an eighteen-match winning streak only earned you three million?" Chen Tiansheng asked, somewhat astonished.

"There’s nothing to be done about it. First, these are sensitive times, so we can’t afford to make a big splash. That means the real high rollers don’t show up. These nouveau riche might act all high and mighty in Macau, but when they come here, they’re just looking for novelty and a visual thrill. Getting them to place heavy bets is difficult. Still, after deducting the winner’s prize money, a net profit of three million isn’t bad," Bao Qiudong explained.

"True enough." Chen Tiansheng nodded, then turned his gaze from the window back to Bao Qiudong. "Right, what were you asking me just now?"

"What is your plan?" Bao Qiudong reiterated.

"Heh heh..." Chen Tiansheng licked his lips, a malevolent smile spreading across his face. "Doesn’t Qin Fan have a girlfriend? We’ll start with her. What if his agent and his precious little girlfriend were to get together? Tsk, tsk. Young Master Bao, can you picture that scene? I just wonder if she’s been deflowered yet. If she hasn’t, this could get very interesting! In that case, do you think Qin Fan would go insane?"

Hearing Chen Tiansheng reveal this wicked plan, Bao Qiudong shuddered, his mind plunging into a vast, empty void.

Using Qin Fan’s girlfriend and Chang Yuanyi as the main characters in this scheme? Has he gone mad? If things really escalate to that point, who could possibly withstand Qin Fan’s wrath? Who?

"Do you have any idea what would happen if this gets out?" Bao Qiudong’s voice trembled.

"What would happen? Do you think Qin Fan will find out it was us? No! As brilliant as he is, he couldn’t have bugged this place. If you don’t say anything and I don’t say anything, how will he know? I’m not just going to execute the plan; I’m going to direct the whole show. Just imagine: the video of them gets out. Do you think Qin Fan will kill Chang Yuanyi? If he does, heh, that’s when the fun begins! Let Jinling descend into chaos! The more the better! Hahaha!" Chen Tiansheng concluded with a mad laugh.

He was certain that if the script unfolded according to his design, Qin Fan would absolutely kill Chang Yuanyi. In fact, driven mad, he might even initiate a large-scale massacre. He had studied the relationship between Qin Fan and Jiang Yino, so he knew exactly how much she meant to him.

GULP! GULP!

As Chen Tiansheng spoke, Bao Qiudong’s face turned deathly pale, and he swallowed hard. At the same time, a faint tremor of excitement ran across his pallid features. He hated Qin Fan, and he desperately wanted to see Chang Yuanyi crushed into the dust.

If Chen Tiansheng’s insane plan became a reality, wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone for him?

However, before he could respond, Chen Tiansheng continued, "But, Young Master Bao, I’ll need a little help from you with this plan."

Bao Qiudong had thought he would simply be a spectator, but Chen Tiansheng’s words shattered that notion. "Impossible!" he cried out, his voice trembling but resolute.

Yes, impossible! He could be a spectator, watching his enemies tear each other apart like dogs, but he would absolutely not get involved, nor did he dare to. The slightest misstep could expose everything, and the consequences were a price he could not afford to pay. He had understood that from the very beginning. To avoid causing trouble for his grandfather, he was content to let Chen Tiansheng do as he pleased, so long as he didn’t target Qin Fan. Not only would Bao Qiudong stay silent, he would happily watch the show. But being dragged into the muck himself? That was absolutely out of the question.

"Are you scared shitless by Qin Fan?" Chen Tiansheng asked, a sinister smirk playing on his lips.

"Yes, I’m scared shitless!" Bao Qiudong admitted without a shred of shame. "This has nothing to do with me. I can’t afford to provoke him, at least not right now."

"Will you at least let me finish?" Chen Tiansheng sighed helplessly, shaking his head.

"It doesn’t matter what you say, I won’t play any role in this! That’s my bottom line!" Bao Qiudong insisted, shaking his head vigorously.

"All I’m asking is for you to find a couple of guys to help me kidnap Qin Fan’s girlfriend. Is that so difficult? Do you think finding two random guys is going to expose you, Young Master Bao? Besides, rest assured, I’ll kill them afterward to tie up loose ends. I’ve been away from Jinling for years; finding people on my own is both risky and unreliable.

"What’s the matter, Young Master Bao? Can’t you handle a trivial matter like this? If you ask me, you’re completely useless. Terrified by Qin Fan. You’re doomed to spend the rest of your life right here, guarding these underground death matches.

"Fine, if that’s how it is, I won’t force you. I’ll figure something else out. I’m leaving," Chen Tiansheng said with a sneer of contempt.

Shaking his head, he turned and strode casually toward the door.

Useless? Was he really that scared of Qin Fan? Was this all his life would ever amount to?

Chen Tiansheng’s words echoed in Bao Qiudong’s mind like a curse. He began to struggle. It had to be said, Chen Tiansheng’s goading had struck a raw nerve. While Bao Qiudong was indeed paranoid and jumpy, he couldn’t stand being spoken to like that. Wavering in hesitation, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Wait!"

"Hmm?" Chen Tiansheng paused and turned back, not missing the opportunity to needle him further. "Decided to finally man up and show a sliver of courage? It’s still pathetic, but at least it’s more than a woman might have."

"Is it really just about finding two people? And you’ll really kill them afterward to cover our tracks? I can erase my involvement through a thousand twists and turns, but I don’t want to take any risks. I don’t want to leave a single trace behind. They must be silenced!" Bao Qiudong said, his face quivering with a crazed intensity.

"Of course," Chen Tiansheng laughed. "Is killing a couple of people a big deal to me? They’re just thugs. I would have silenced them even if you hadn’t asked."

"Fine!" Bao Qiudong gritted his teeth. "I’ll contact you."

"That’s more like it. They are your enemies, after all. If you don’t put in a little effort, the thrill of revenge won’t be as sweet. Relax. From this moment on, I won’t meet with you again. I’ll make sure you can stay safely out of it. Apart from the person who picked me up from the airport, no one knows I was here or that I met you."

With that, Chen Tiansheng turned his back on Bao Qiudong and walked away with decisive strides. A chilling, sinister smile crept across his face.

To plunge Jinling into total chaos, how could one Chang Yuanyi ever be enough?

"Wait!" Bao Qiudong called out again to Chen Tiansheng’s back.

"Speak!" Chen Tiansheng snapped, his back still turned, his voice thick with irritation.

"Can I know who the ’boss’ you mentioned is?" Bao Qiudong asked, swallowing hard.

The only answer he received was the sight of Chen Tiansheng continuing to walk away without breaking his stride.

He wasn’t qualified to know.
