Chapter 338: You Still Dare To Go Against That Person?

The Dickens family has now changed their head, and were reshuffling their own family members, and didn’t have any time nor energy to bother about the Qing triad. In the eyes of all the other gangs, the Bai gang was on the verge of collapse.

However, the members of the Bai gang didn’t seem to care about it at all, still going about their routines leisurely, as though nothing was wrong.

Were they out of their minds? Did they really not care about what was happening right now?

“Gang leader, look at those members of the Bai gang. They’re just so… relaxed. Could it be that they have some really powerful big boss behind them?” A member from one of the gangs that had cooperated with the Bai gang previously couldn’t help but ask hesitantly, seeing the Bai gang members being so easy-going.

“Who doesn’t know that the Bai gang people have gone off their rockers? They’ve gone nuts, have you also been affected and gone nuts? The Bai gang is about to be taken over by the Qing triad, if they had any powerful big bosses behind them, they would have already played that card by now. Why would they wait till the last minute, and still not bring out anything?” The gang leader laughed contemptuously.

The man who just spoke felt a little uneasy inside, but then he said, “Your words are right, but look at the Dickens family, as well as their coup. Didn’t everyone say Klaus was crazy at that time too? But look now, Klaus wasn’t crazy, he launched his counterattack and now he’s head of the Dickens family.”

The gang leader waved his hand dismissively when he heard that. “It’s impossible, absolutely impossible! I’m telling you, the Qing triad is already prepared to take out the Bai gang tonight. I know that members of the Bai gang are really strong, but don’t forget that the Dickens family is backing the Qing triad. Just wait, once the Dickens family gets back on their feet, the lands will once again belong to the Qing triad.”

With the way the gang leader was talking, everyone around him was convinced.

That’s right, there was still the Dickens family’s existence to consider.

It wasn’t just the gangs who thought this way, even the people on the streets were of the same mind. Whenever any one of them bumped into members of the Bai gang, they turned and walked the other direction, afraid to be mixed up with them.

But as soon as they said that, someone suddenly came from outside to report. “B-Boss, Dickens… Klaus from the Dickens family has gone to the Bai gang!”

“He went to the Bai gang?” The gang leader’s eyes lit up. “Maybe he’s gone to get rid of the Bai gang for the Qing triad? Come on, let’s go see the show!”

He stood up after saying that, looking excited to head over to the Bai gang.

“No, he’s gone to give gifts to the Bai gang!” The person finished reporting in one breath, an expression that looked close to tears on his face.

The gang leader’s smile froze on his face, and he turned around, looking at the man. “What? Sending gifts to the Bai gang? Are you sure you didn’t see wrongly?”

“How could I? If you go out and ask now, everyone around knows about it.” The young man had tears streaming down his face now. “This is not even the biggest thing, Klaus even wants to name the Bai gang leader a bro, and they look so close to each other.”

“What?!” The gang leader’s eyes were not the only ones that widened, even those other members of the gang who were present also had wide eyes, disbelief in all of them.

Forget about the gifts for now, but to even call him a brother?! Oh god, was Klaus looking for death?! A politician openly calling a gang leader brother, wasn’t he afraid of getting pulled off his high horse?!

Since ancient times, law-abiding people and gangsters have always been incompatible with each other. Klaus’ attitude and actions were confusing everyone, was he really not afraid at all?

It wasn’t only the gang leader having these thoughts, everyone present gathered here was also of the same mind. The world had gone crazy!

Was Klaus intending to ruin the entire Dickens family? Would he not regret this decision in the future?!

But!

They didn’t expect to hear a more shocking thing!

Not even ten minutes after Klaus had entered the Bai gang area, another group of people came bearing big gifts. The person was a familiar face that always appeared on the news, a member of the Standing Committee!

Take note, the Standing Committee of the United States!

After a member of the Standing Committee, there shouldn’t be anyone else more shocking would appear, right?

Wrong!

Group after group appeared, Standing Committee, Chairman, governor!

Everyone was going nuts as they watched all these people come and go, tense and stiff. Why did all these people who they only usually saw on TV appear here suddenly? And they were all acting so courteous and polite to the members of the Bai gang?!

Everyone could feel that something wasn’t right here!

Something was really wrong!

The most taboo thing for politicians was to get involved with gangsters, but now, all of them came bearing gifts for the Bai gang in broad daylight?! And they didn’t seem afraid of people finding out?

You have to understand, even when Claude was helping the Qing triad, he did it in secret and only behind the scenes, not daring to show his face for fear that the public would find out. Even the people gathered here only knew that the Qing triad had the Dicken family’s backing when they caught sight of the Qing triad leader and Claude walking together by chance.

But now, all of the politicians were bringing gifts for the Bai gang, and being so polite. God, what the h*ll was this Bai gang?!

The stream of politicians continued endlessly, all the way into the night.

Once they left, only did the other gang members finally come back to themselves. The entire afternoon, they had sat outside the doors of the Bai gang, watching dumbfounded as politicians who often appeared on national TV come and go. They were stunned speechless.

After that, they were immediately thrown into an inexplicable panic!

Why was it that so many politicians had come to the Bai gang, so easily showing their faces as though they didn’t care? It looks like the Bai gang wasn’t as simple as they thought!

But if that was the case, then why was the Bai gang being pressured by the Qing triad to this extent? They obviously had a lot of power, so why didn’t they show their hands in the first place, and let the Qing triad bully them like this?

Those gangs who had broken off relationships with the Bai gang were now filled with regret and horror, especially the gang that mocked the Bai gang often. The leader’s face was already paled as paper.

“Big brother, does the Bai gang leader have some time? I have something I would like to talk to him about.” The gang members that were gathered outside the Bai gang gates cautiously asked the two guards who were there.

One of the guards shook his head. “Our gang leader has important things to do right now.”

Those usually proud and arrogant gang leaders were acting all careful with the guards outside the door, and they didn’t say anything against getting rejected that way. They smiled instead. “Ah, I see. Then I’ll come back another time.”

As soon as those gang leaders turned around, the smile slid off their faces, and they sobered up. The bitterness grew on their faces and in their hearts.

Who would have known that a small gang like the Bai gang would one day be like this? With all the support of the politicians, who would dare to go against them? At this rate, the powers among the American gangs would be reshuffled.

Those who didn’t know what was going on, were surprised to see the polite attitudes that those gang leaders were showing the guards of the Bai gang.

The guards standing outside the Bai gang didn’t really feel anything at this, because they had been numb the entire afternoon. Compared to the other guests that they had received this afternoon, these little gang leaders were nothing!

One of the guards leaned against the door, a deep sigh from the bottom of his heart coming out from his mouth. “Those gang leaders all had their noses in the air when they looked at us just a few days ago. Look at them now, being all polite and nice to us now.”

“Isn’t it obviously because they saw the stream of politicians before this.” The other guard was still in a daze. “I’m still in disbelief now. Why do you think those politicians, who are usually only seen on TV, appear here suddenly? Aren’t they afraid of being caught on photos by those reporters?”

Wasn’t it bad for their image if they were?

“Do you know why they came here?” The guard leaning on the door said, his voice low. “Of course it’s to see Miss Gu.”

That’s right, it’s because of Gu Xiqiao! Because Gu Xiqiao was here in the Bai gang today!

All the politicians wanted to meet Gu Xiqiao, but was she someone who you could meet, just because you wanted to? Klaus’ mouth was so zipped so tightly you couldn’t even pry it out of him no matter how hard you tried.

Then today, they suddenly got news that Klaus had gone to see that person!

Though it was a gathering place for gangsters, these politicians didn’t care one bit, all because they wanted to see that person.

That one was a real god, being able to rub shoulders and shine her shoes was worth everything they had to do.

Some people had a hopeful attitude when they came. Look at Klaus, who was originally just an ordinary heir, or rather an heir that had been beaten to the ground by Claude. But, because of that person, Klaus had done the impossible and turned the tables around. Not only did he do that, launching a counterattack and taking it back, he had also become a very good leader. He was completely different from the old him! No one would believe that it wasn’t because of that person.

And that’s why those people came with a hopeful attitude to meet Gu Xiqiao. What if they caught that person’s eye? What if she liked them? What if they got on her bad side? Who knows what would happen?

There were also some who had offended Gu Xiqiao without knowing previously. In the beginning when they had no way to meet her, they were worried inside every day, afraid that one day they would be the next one to be sent to the National Security Bureau, that wouldn’t be fun at all.

When they knew that Klaus was going to see that person, they immediately followed after him. After inquiring and finding out that that person liked Chinese antiques and whatnot, they went around looking for these things one by one.

In that instant, the entire America’s stock of Chinese antiques were cleared out!

***

Inside the Bai gang, a group of people was in a similar state as the guard standing outside.

Klaus was still inside the house, and he looked at Gu Xiqiao. “Miss Gu, are there any other instructions you want us to carry out? Or do you want me to just get some people to round up the Qing triad?”

“No need.” Gu Xiqiao opened another box, revealing a piece of sheep-fat white jade which was in a good condition. The color and luster of the jade was smooth and shiny, which matched her slender white fingers.

Klaus thought about it, then realized that, that’s right, if he were to wipe out the Qing triad just like that, where was the fun in that?

He was still in shock about what had just happened. Those politicians actually came here, and this had never happened in the history of America,, right? That was the instant that Klaus realized how much influence Gu Xiqiao held in the political circles of America.

Now that the day was getting late, Klaus thought a bit more before saying, “Then, I’ll leave and head back first.”

The Bai gang leader stood up immediately to send him off. Though shocked at the start, the Bai gang leader was able to calmly treat Klaus now, and he sent him off politely..

“Bai gang leader, if you have any problems, just come to me in the future. Miss Gu’s business is my business.” Klaus told the Bai gang leader before he left, and he also added, “Don’t need to be so reserved with me, we’re brothers after all.”

If it were in the past, what politician would say these words to a gang leader? Law abiding people and gangsters have always been incompatible with each other since ancient times after all.

The Bai gang leader was already indifferent to his, feeling like nothing else could shock him anymore. He replied calmly, “Thank you, Lord Klaus.”

Klaus patted his shoulder, then turned around and left.

After seeing him off, the Bai gang leader returned to the gang. Then, just like all the other members in the gang, he looked at Gu Xiqiao with admiration on his face.

“Boss, you said there were more shocking things, but this shock has already stunned me to the point I’m speechless.” A young man that seemed to be in a daze said. He had seen so many public figures that frequently appeared on the news, and more importantly, there was also a person from the Supervision Department that had come. The moment they saw him, the underlings of the Bai gang subconsciously felt that he was here to arrest them all.

But they didn’t expect that all these people had come here bearing gifts instead!

The leader of the Bai gang smiled, and he looked at the young man, his tone proud as he said, “Did you see that, Klaus from the Dickens family respects Miss Gu so much. I’ve already prepared you mentally. For all those important people to come to the Bai gang, only Miss Gu would be able to do that.”

The other members of the Bai gang didn’t doubt his words for a second, and believed it with all their hearts. They also had a new understanding of Gu Xiqiao.

In their hearts, Gu Xiqiao was already a godlike figure, there was nothing in the world that she wasn’t able to do!

“Bai Gang Leader, who is that man beside Miss Gu?” The young man couldn’t help but ask after seeing Gu Xiqiao leaving with Jiang Shuxuan at her side.

“I don’t know.” The Bai gang leader shook his head. “However, did you hear what Klaus called him? Young Master Jiang. He shouldn’t be any ordinary commoner. How could any ordinary person stand beside Miss Gu?”

“Then, who do you think is the greater one between the two?” The young man suddenly thought of this question. He felt that Jiang Shuxuan hadn’t seemed like anything special, apart from the fact that he was a little cold.

The Bai gang leader was silent for a while, before shaking his head again. “I don’t know either.”

The young man suddenly said on a whim, “Do you think he’s just a pretty face for display on her arms?”

It wasn’t like there was anyone greater than Miss Gu in this world anyway, was what the young man thought inside.

News of what happened at the Bai gang had already reached the Qing triad, and the Qing triad, who had been calmed all the way, finally couldn’t sit still anymore.

Especially Gu Xijin. She got someone to stop the member of the Supervision Department that had dropped by the Bai gang that afternoon, and pulled out a USB. “This is a recording of you visiting the Bai gang, if I were to release it, it’ll be a massive backlash for you.”

“A recording?” The member of the Supervision Department raised an eyebrow as he stopped in his tracks.

“Yes, as long as you help me get rid of the Bai gang, I’ll return this to you.” Gu Xijin said, a sinister smile on her face.

Hearing Gu Xijin’s words, the man looked at her as though she was the biggest fool on Earth, and then turned around to leave, not bothered to entertain her any further.

“Aren’t you afraid of this getting exposed?!” Gu Xijin didn’t expect that there was not a hint of fear or panic on the man’s face, and her heart sank.

“Oh, just do that if you want.” The member of the Supervision Department said, waving his hand dismissively. So what if that video got out? That person had stirred up the entire political world of America, and no one had done anything to her. Didn’t that mean that this matter no longer required any more explanation?

And yet, you still want to talk about exposing this? Even if it were released, do you think any reporters would dare to write and publish it?

Thinking about this, the man gave a backward glance at Gu Xijin. With just a video recording, such a mild method, and you still dare to go against that person?
