It wasn't just for Jiang Zhi Shu, but rather for his entire plan.

If he were to give up this chance, it would mean the Jiang Family would be able to rise up from this fall and he wouldn't have a chance to strike them again. After all, after suffering this one loss, their defenses would be much stronger this time.

​​

With the amount of resources the Jiang Family had, it was not something that Lin Fan could match with his newly built organization.

While Lin Fan was confident in taking care of them by himself, that was only because of how arrogant the Jiang Family had been.

Before this, they had been lax with their guard since they never expected anyone to actually target them. This was the lull that came with a false sense of security from a long period of peace.

But now that they had been alerted, they would definitely prepare all their defenses.

The only reason Lin Fan could still attack the wedding was because the time was too short, so the Jiang Family couldn't prepare anything special, so it was still in line with what Lin Fan could deal with.

But after this wedding, if the Jiang Family were given time to prepare, they would be able to prepare something that would definitely be a problem for Lin Fan.

So in the end, Lin Fan had no choice but to make a move at this wedding.

Still, what surprised him the most was why the Jiang Family had suddenly become smart enough to make this move. Before this, all they did was blunder around, not understanding what was going on as they sent useless people to deal with Lin Fan's attacks.

This was clearly a sign and it was a sign that Lin Fan didn't want to accept.

First, it meant that there was now someone capable who was running the Jiang Family. This would have meant that it would be much harder to deal with them in the future, but it seemed like this person wanted to end it all in one move with Lin Fan's side, so that wasn't a problem.

The problem was the second thing that this meant.

The second thing was that this person who was now in charge of the Jiang Family suspected that it was Jiang Zhi Shu who was causing these problems for the Jiang Family.

All these plans were specifically targeted at Jiang Zhi Shu, or rather Yuan Xiang Qin who was his weak spot.

Lin Fan didn't have a problem controlling Jiang Zhi Shu now, but if Yuan Xiang Qin was ever involved, Jiang Zhi Shu would almost always lose control. Yuan Xiang Qin was the one heart demon that Jiang Zhi Shu could never get over.

The Jiang Family would certainly make other countermeasures to deal with them and it was more than likely they would involve Yuan Xiang Qin.

Lin Fan could feel a headache filling his head as he thought this over since he knew that this situation was definitely hard to deal with.

It would be best if the second case wasn't real, but he would still have to come up with plans just in case.

But right at this moment, Lin Fan couldn't do a single thing since he was still taking care of his shop and could not leave at the moment.

Qiang You didn't say anything else to Lin Fan on this matter and discussed a few random topics before leaving the store with Qiang Ben.

Time passed slowly as Lin Fan waited for the shop to close so he could go do what he needed to do.

Finally, when the shop's closing finally came, Lin Fan didn't head back to his residence as normal and stayed in the shop a bit longer before sneaking out the back. With his shadow and spatial laws, it was easy for him to move around unnoticed.

He eventually came to another street that was just as bad as the street he had picked to set his shop up on, but there was something familiar about this street. This street was the site of the first business of the Jiang Family that they had attacked.

Lin Fan went into the bar that had been operated by the gang under the Jiang Family and behind the counter was someone he was very familiar with. It was one of the two lieutenants who had been with Jiang Zhi Shu since the beginning.

Lin Fan's subordinates had taken over this bar as their hideout after the first day because there was no place safer than right under the enemy's nose.

The lieutenant had a trace of surprise in his eyes when he saw Lin Fan, but then he returned to tending to the customers like before. But when Lin Fan came up to the counter, he casually lifted up the way into the back for Lin Fan and Lin Fan went into the back room before anyone even noticed what had happened.

In the back room, there were pieces of broken furniture all over and several people who were surrounding a single chair with a person tied up in it.

When Lin Fan came in, all these people revealed looks of relief.

Lin Fan just gave a nod and waved his hand, dismissing them. All of these people gave Lin Fan a bow before heading into another room.

The person who was tied up in the chair was no one other than Jiang Zhi Shu.

In the afternoon, he had called Lin Fan countless times after he had heard the Jiang Family's announcement. Even after receiving the message from Lin Fan to wait, he still couldn't sit still and wanted to charge right to Lin Fan's store.

Of course, the others knew that they couldn't let him do that, so they had all worked together to stop him which had resulted in the scene that Lin Fan saw when he came in.

Jiang Zhi Shu immediately looked up when he heard the footsteps entering the room and seeing Lin Fan, he immediately opened his mouth to shout, but Lin Fan didn't give him a chance as he used spatial laws to cut off the sound from exiting his mouth.

Jiang Zhi Shu saw that he made no sound at all and struggled to get out of the chair, but Lin Fan didn't give him that chance as he immediately restrained him with his power. Lin Fan then walked over to Jiang Zhi Shu and stuffed a cloth into his mouth to gag him.

Once that was all done, Lin Fan pulled another chair over to sit down in front of Jiang Zhi Shu and said with a calm look, "I'll remove the gag if you promise to not make any sound and talk normally, we have a lot to discuss."

Jiang Zhi Shu looked into Lin Fan's eyes and then he took a deep breath before revealing a determined look and giving a nod.

Lin Fan took out the cloth and seeing that Jiang Zhi Shu didn't say a thing, he said, "Good, now that you're calm, let's talk. I know what you want to do, but we still have a week before this happens and we need to make plans, or do you plan on just sending yourself to die?"

Jiang Zhi Shu suddenly became depressed when he heard this. He didn't refute it because he knew that Lin Fan was right, but he also didn't want to accept it since it meant that he was powerless.

Jiang Zhi Shu after a long pause then said, "Alright, boss, what do we do then?"

Lin Fan nodded before saying, "Well, the plan for now is…"

…

After a long talk, they finally finished planning out their move over the next week. There was no doubt that the wedding next week would be the main event, but there were still plenty of things to take care of before then.

Lin Fan naturally didn't have time to stay here and Jiang Zhi Shu had just received the answer he wanted, so he was filled with energy to go out and do what he needed to do.

But before Lin Fan did leave, he didn't forget to take out a batch of cookies from his watch's storage space which he threw over to Jiang Zhi Shu while saying, "Here, these are for you. Eat these and calm down."

Jiang Zhi Shu was surprised that Lin Fan would suddenly give him cookies, but he still accepted them without another word.

Lin Fan gave a nod and said, "Next time, don't lose control and call me at work."

Then without another word, he walked out.

Jiang Zhi Shu was completely confused, but he didn't have time to think about this. He would only learn the meaning of this later tonight when he finally had time to eat those cookies.

Those cookies didn't come from a store, but rather they were made by Angela.

It was a very strange thing since Angela had slowly become good at cooking, but when it came to making sweets, she never made any improvement.

The only word to describe it was "destructive".

It seemed like for things that required precision, Angela wasn't able to follow the instructions.

And that was the reason why Lin Fan had given these cookies to Jiang Zhi Shu.

Lin Fan didn't show this to others, but to the people he was close with, he did have a petty side.

He was annoyed with how Jiang Zhi Shu had acted this afternoon, so he gave him these cookies as a sort of revenge.

Of course, he knew that Jiang Zhi Shu would share these cookies with his other subordinates.

However, the only thing he could do was offer them a prayer.
