A matter of old friendship.
Hearing this word, a hint of shame flashed across Jiang Tao's face. He slowly put down the teapot in his hand and sat on the sofa, looking into Lin Xiao's eyes: "I'm sorry, Lin Xiao. Back then, apart from you, I couldn't save anyone else."
Back then, when the three great families made a move against the Lin family, he was powerless. He was the general manager of the leading enterprise in Sha City, but his influence in Sha City was not as important as it is now. The three great families had been planning for a long time, and all he could do then was to send Lin Xiao away from Sha City.
Rao Yilong also helped back then, but they were both unable to help the rest of the Lin family.
Last year, when he was traveling abroad, he was detained by foreign forces. At that time, Lin Xiao appeared out of nowhere and rescued him. It was only then that he realized that the sole heir of the Lin family, who had left back then, had now grown into a colossal figure. Kuai Shu Ge.
Rao Yilong had no interaction with Lin Xiao, he merely heard about the deeds of the Northern Xinjiang Dragon King.
"Uncle Jiang, it's not your fault."
Lin Xiao shook his head: "I came to see you two today for a simple reason. From now on, for all your collaborations with the Luo family, you must ask Luo Qinghan to be the general person in charge. Also, I would trouble you two to apply some pressure."
"Understood."
Jiang Tao and Rao Yilong were well-informed. They knew about what happened at the Luo family wedding yesterday. Lin Xiao's intentions were now very clear: to marginalize the rest of the Luo family members through bloodless means.
"Also, the industries of those three great families will be temporarily managed by you two... I will hand them over to Qinghan when the time is right." Lin Xiao pondered, and then began to size up Rao Yilong.
Noticing Lin Xiao's scrutiny, Rao Yilong showed an awkward smile.
He didn't know much about the Northern Xinjiang Dragon King, but he had heard that the Northern Xinjiang Dragon King had the blood of tens of thousands of people on his hands. He had seen the pictures of Lin Xiao's methods yesterday and wondered why those pictures weren't censored by the chat apps.
They were too bloody, too violent.
He was different from Jiang Tao. He had only played a supporting role back then and hidden some information. Unlike Jiang Tao, who had worked tirelessly and was an old family friend of the Lin family, he was terrified of doing anything wrong. What if he angered Lin Xiao? He would end up like that Zhou Yuan and fellow.
Lin Xiao continued to observe Rao Yilong.
Sweat dripped down Rao Yilong's forehead, and his flabby flesh couldn't help but tremble.
"Mr. Rao, don't you think you're too fat?" Lin Xiao sized Rao Yilong up and gestured with his hand: "Your weight must be over two hundred and fifty pounds, right?"
"Yes... two hundred and fifty-one." If anyone had joked about his weight before, he would have lost his temper. In the past, only Jiang Tao dared to mention his weight. However, Lin Xiao's sudden mention of his weight, he dared not conceal it.
"Here, Mr. Rao, lie down on this sofa." Lin Xiao said, touching Rao Yilong's shoulder with his finger.
Rao Yilong's vision blurred, and his body was already lying on the sofa.
Then, Lin Xiao's voice rang out: "Mr. Rao, I'm really a little worried about you. Let me help you adjust your body first, lest you get too fat and die."
