Chapter 270: Wu Chengde's Invitation

It was unclear how much time had passed, but the roar of a car engine was getting closer and closer. Xia Yu and Li Wuming were leaning against the wall, their guns loaded, constantly alert to their surroundings.

At that moment, Li Wuming, squinting as he observed, suddenly said, "Boss, it's our car."

Xia Yu raised an eyebrow and was about to speak when he heard Li Qian's scream.

He immediately stepped out and saw Yan Shining getting out of the car and Li Qian, who had opened the door but was pale-faced due to the corpses scattered on the ground.

"Qianqian, don't look!"

Xia Yu glanced at the car belonging to Wu Hongyi and then shifted his gaze back to Li Qian, saying.

"Xia Yu, I'm so scared. I'm just glad you're okay!"

Li Qian sobbed as she threw herself into Xia Yu's arms. Xia Yu quickly patted her back to comfort her.

"Alright, alright, I'm fine. Don't worry!"

"Xia Yu, as long as you're okay, what exactly happened?"

After Wu Hongyi got out of the car, he quickly walked up to Xia Yu, looked at the police officers lying in pools of blood, and furrowed his brows anxiously as he asked.

"You need to get out of London immediately. If you're discovered to have killed so many police officers, you will definitely be in danger!"

Wu Hongyi said with a serious expression.

Xia Yu did not respond but carefully scrutinized Wu Hongyi. When Wu Hongyi was puzzled by Xia Yu's gaze, Xia Yu shook his head and said, "They're not police officers; they're fake!"

Wu Hongyi's eyes widened in surprise. He couldn't believe what Xia Yu had just said. Despite feeling nauseous, he squatted next to a corpse and checked the man's armband. His brows furrowed and then relaxed.

"There's no identification number. The clothes are fake. They're indeed fake police officers. But the fact that they had guns is troublesome."

"Xia Yu, did you provoke someone?"

Wu Hongyi asked with concern.

"Come with me!"

Xia Yu said with a deadpan expression. After finishing, he turned around and grabbed Li Qian's hand, heading inside.

Wu Hongyi sensed something was off about Xia Yu's attitude. He didn't think much of it, assuming Xia Yu was still upset from the night's events and hadn't recovered.

But when Wu Hongyi followed Xia Yu inside and saw the people who had already passed away on the ground, his expression changed, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "How could it be Liu Yue Song?"

"Take a look at this!"

Xia Yu tossed the document bag he had found from Liu Yue Song to Wu Hongyi.

Wu Hongyi, confused, took the document bag and opened it. Upon seeing its contents, his face darkened to an extreme degree.

In the end, he looked at Xia Yu with a guilty expression and said, "Xia Yu, I'm sorry. A traitor has emerged in my family, and they did such a thing…"

As he spoke halfway, Wu Hongyi couldn't continue, and his guilt towards Xia Yu grew stronger.

With his intelligence, upon seeing Liu Yue Song and the stock transfer documents inside the bag, he understood everything.

It must have been his cousin Wu Honglin who did this, trying to seek wealth and kill.

But Wu Honglin probably didn't expect Xia Yu, though seemingly alone, to be a formidable opponent. So many people were taken down by just two individuals.

Fortunately, Xia Yu was safe and sound, otherwise, Wu Hongyi would have felt deeply ashamed to face Xia Yu. He truly considered Xia Yu his confidant!

He was also the only confidant he had since childhood!

Xia Yu had some doubts after questioning Liu Yue Song earlier, but now, seeing Wu Hongyi's reaction, Xia Yu was convinced that Wu Hongyi had nothing to do with this incident.

Since that was the case, Xia Yu didn't blame Wu Hongyi. Moreover, Wu Hongyi had risked his life to come here so late, which showed some level of sincerity.

There was still a question: Was this really Wu Honglin's personal scheme, or was it a decision made by the Wu family?

This would be addressed later; just thinking about it wasn't enough. Observation was needed!

"Let's clean this up first!"

Xia Yu said, glancing around.

Then, except for Li Qian who remained in the car, everyone helped to sort out the situation, stuffing all the bodies into the car. Yan Shining then drove the car to a nearby cliff by the seaside, and after getting out, he started the car and drove the vehicle full of corpses into the sea.

It took a long time to clean up the traces. Only after making a large detour did they finally head back home.

Fortunately, Liu Yue Song and the others had chosen a remote place for their burial, considering the sound of gunfire, so it wasn't heard by anyone, which was a small blessing in misfortune.

Otherwise, if a nosy British farmer had called the police, it would have been too late by the time real officers arrived.

After returning, Wu Hongyi had no mood to go home. Instead, he stayed at Xia Yu's house and talked about some internal matters of the Wu family, including his relationship with Wu Honglin and the inheritance disputes within the family.

During Wu Hongyi's explanation, Xia Yu listened quietly.

In fact, when Xia Yu was interrogating Liu Yue Song, Liu Yue Song had already mentioned the reason for targeting Xia Yu, which involved Wu Honglin's attempt to suppress Wu Hongyi and eliminate his external supporters.

At that time, Liu Yue Song's explanation was unclear, and due to the lack of knowledge about the internal situation of the Wu family, the scattered information could not be logically connected.

Now, after hearing Wu Hongyi's account, Xia Yu had a clear concept and judgment.

In addition to having a grudge with Wu Honglin, Xia Yu might indeed be a threat to him, which led to the current situation.

"Xia Yu, don't worry. I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"

Wu Hongyi gritted his teeth and said, his eyes filled with determination.

Wu Hongyi was genuinely angry!

Since his father's accidental death, he had been subjected to covert suppression. As he grew older, the intensity of the pressure increased, but he endured it silently, not wanting to compete.

Unexpectedly, now that he wanted to make a move, Wu Honglin acted ruthlessly and even involved his friends. Such a merciless approach made him feel cold and extremely angry!

Even a cornered rabbit will bite!

Unable to endure, he chose to fight back!

Since Wu Honglin was determined to be aggressive, he would fight for the position of family head. Even if Wu Honglin's father held a large portion of the power now, he would still fight for it! For the sake of his pride and a better future!

"Hongyi, you are you, and he is he. There's no need for you to be like this."

Xia Yu said淡淡地.

Wu Hongyi showed a trace of gratitude and then stood up, saying, "Xia Yu, I'll head back first. If there's anything, come find me directly!"

"Alright, it's late now. Be careful on your way back!"

Xia Yu nodded and said politely.

Then Wu Hongyi left Xia Yu's house. After he left, Yan Shining closed the door, and everyone gathered around Xia Yu.

"Boss, the danger is still present, and we've killed people. If we're wanted by the British police, it will be troublesome!"

Yan Shining said with a serious expression.

"Xia Yu, why don't we hurry back to Xiangjiang? It's too unsafe here."

Li Qian tugged at Xia Yu's sleeve, looking at him with concern.

Xia Yu fell silent, deep in thought.

What Yan Shining could think of, Xia Yu naturally thought of as well. The best solution was to leave immediately, fly back to Xiangjiang, and be on his own turf. Even if the British police discovered the issue, he would have more ways to deal with it.

Moreover, he had to return quickly because, from Liu Yue Song's words tonight, he learned that they had not only Plan A and Plan B but also a more vicious Plan C.

If Plans A and B failed, Charles from Yihe would have people kidnap Xia Yu's family to force Xia Yu to surrender.

Now that Plans A and B had failed, if Wu Honglin and Charles knew, Plan C might be activated, so Xia Yu's family was already in danger.

As soon as he returned, Xia Yu immediately called Xiangjiang to arrange for the strict protection of his family's safety. He also contacted Li Chunqiu, who reassured him, and Xia Yu felt slightly relieved.

But being away from Xiangjiang still made Xia Yu uneasy!

The best plan was to return immediately and take control personally!

However, although Wu Honglin and Charles' people had been taken down, making them suffer a setback, the two main culprits, Wu Honglin and Charles, couldn't be simply let go!

Xia Yu's style was not to let grievances go unpunished!

It's a pity that the current situation was out of his control. Between ensuring his own safety and that of his family and seeking revenge immediately, which should he choose?

After a moment of hesitation, Xia Yu decisively chose the former!

He immediately instructed Yan Shining and Li Qian to prepare for the flight, ready to return to Xiangjiang as soon as possible.
