Lu Zhao's subordinates put down their notebooks and drew short knives from their waists.
The cold glint made Amy tremble.
"Mr. Su, be careful, they have knives..."
Su Yang glanced coldly at the men and threw Lu Zhao several meters away, where he crashed into the wall.
In pain, Lu Zhao roared in anger, "Go!"
Ma Biao grabbed a stool and charged, swinging it down towards Su Yang's head.
The others, from different directions, simultaneously drew their knives and lunged at Su Yang.
Su Yang stood calmly, showing no intention of making a move.
"You're asking for death!"
Ma Biao and the others were even more enraged; Su Yang's attitude was infuriating.
Just as Ma Biao and the others were about to strike, an explosion sounded from outside, and the door was smashed through by something.
The sudden change startled Ma Biao and the others, who turned to look.
At first glance, it was an arm the size of a water bucket that had smashed through the door.
Yuan Kui, three meters tall, lowered his head and walked in, looking down at Ma Biao and the others from above.
Then, he knelt on one knee, resting his arm on the ground.
"Boss, I'm late."
"It's nothing, I just wanted to play a game with them! How did you find me?"
Although Ma Biao had confiscated Su Yang's phone, he had other electronic devices. If he wished, he could have notified Yuan Kui and the others long ago.
Yuan Kui shifted aside, and Shen Qiu and the others followed, entering and bowing.
"Boss, Secretary Zhao notified us, saying you were in trouble."
It turned out to be Zhao Xiaolu's arrangement.
Su Yang nodded, instantly deducing that Dong Yongsheng had discovered the abnormality and subsequently notified Zhao Xiaolu.
Zhao Xiaolu then contacted Yuan Kui and the other four to rescue Su Yang.
"Since that's the case, then you guys handle it!"
Su Yang stepped back a few paces and untied Amy.
Yuan Kui extended a hand, and though his movement seemed slow, it made Ma Biao and the others' scalps tingle.
Ma Biao had no time to evade before Yuan Kui grabbed him by the neck.
"Cough cough... mmmph... Let, let me go..."
Yuan Kui lost interest. Dealing with Ma Biao was less challenging than a B-class prisoner in Songhai Prison.
"Boss, how should we handle these small fries?"
Su Yang pondered. He wasn't interested in the fate of Ma Biao and the others, but he was very curious to meet the young master of the Tang family from Qingcheng, the owner of the Harmony cruise ship.
"Just don't kill them. Ask them where the owner of the cruise ship is now?"
"Understood, I'll take them down first!"
Yuan Kui grabbed Ma Biao and Lu Zhao with his left and right hands respectively. The two had no ability to resist.
Even with all their strength, they could only tickle Yuan Kui.
...
After everyone had left, Su Yang slowly sat down.
He poured out the old tea leaves and brewed a new pot, savoring it carefully.
Amy, who had only just realized what had happened, rubbed her numb wrists. "Mr. Su, is that big gorilla your subordinate?"
"Big gorilla? That's quite a vivid comparison!"
Su Yang chuckled wryly, wondering what Yuan Kui would think if he heard that.
"Mr. Su, since you could get out of the ropes, why didn't you leave earlier?"
Amy was like a curious baby, her mind full of questions.
"Because I was bored. The place I want to go takes three days to reach, so I had to find some entertainment, didn't I?"
Amy shook her head. "I really don't understand the fun of you big tycoons. It's too dangerous!"
Amy rubbed the red marks on her hands, still recovering from the ordeal.
After a while.
Shen Qiu, the relatively short poison master, came to report.
"Boss, they've confessed. The young master of the Tang family will board the ship tomorrow at noon, accompanied by over a dozen bodyguards, as well as some young masters and ladies from Qingcheng."
Su Yang's interest was piqued. He put down his teacup. "Did you find out anything else? What about the money?"
"Reporting to the boss, the one hundred billion you transferred from Yalian Bank was moved several times and finally landed in an account in Sang Country. We have no right to recover that money."
"Sang Country? Why is it these little Japanese again?"
Su Yang rubbed his head. Ma Biao and Lu Zhao often kidnapped guests on cruise ships, so they had to transfer the money multiple times.
But Su Yang hadn't expected the money to end up in Sang Country.
The intricacies of this were becoming increasingly complex.
"Continue the interrogation. We must find out the connection between the people on the Harmony and Sang Country."
"Yes, boss."
Shen Qiu acknowledged the order and turned to leave the lounge.
Su Yang tapped the table. One hundred billion was a small sum to him.
If the money had been transferred to someone's account in Long Country, he might have tolerated it.
But if people from Sang Country got the money, he couldn't stand it.
"Harmony, Qingcheng Tang family, Sang Country. Are these three connected? What is their relationship?"
Su Yang stood up and spun the globe on his desk.
According to the map, the distance from Qingcheng to Sang Country was not short. At the speed of a cruise ship, it would take at least three days to reach Sang Country.
"Mr. Su, what are you muttering to yourself about?"
Amy stretched her small head, scrutinizing Su Yang intently.
Whether from the side or the front, she felt her idol had not disappointed her; he was handsome, even more so than rumored.
"Nothing!"
Su Yang slowly sat down and raised his cup to continue drinking tea.
"By the way, Amy, are you a local from Qingcheng?"
"Yes and no. My hometown is a remote village in Qingcheng, not in the bustling city."
"Then have you heard of the powers in Qingcheng, such as the Tang family?"
In Su Yang's memory, the original owner had never been to Qingcheng, so he knew nothing about the Tang family.
Amy scratched her head. "I only know that Qingcheng is very large. There are eight great families: Tang, Song, Liu, Lin, Yang, Xu, An, and Wang, with the Tang family at the head.
Among the direct descendants of the Tang family, there are over a dozen young masters, each a legendary figure. I only saw the Third Young Master once from afar, and that was last year."
Su Yang was surprised. He hadn't expected Qingcheng to be so complex, with eight great families.
And the Tang family was the leader.
Qingcheng's economy ranked among the top five largest cities in Long Country. It had the widest land area, with numerous family powers, making it a complex and intricate place.
Su Yang became increasingly excited because he couldn't wait to witness the young talents of Qingcheng.
Recalling Shen Qiu's words, the young master of the Tang family would board the ship tomorrow at noon, along with the young masters and ladies from various families in Qingcheng.
It was hard to believe that these people would gather without any ulterior motives.
Su Yang's eyes darted. "Amy, don't tell anyone about what happened today, understand?"
Amy didn't understand his plan, only knowing that the Western restaurant would surely be in chaos.
"Mr. Su, you arrested Ma Biao. If the owner of the Western restaurant comes, what should I do?"
"Just say that Ma Biao decided to retire and left overnight. I believe your boss won't make things difficult for you."
"Alright, I'll go back and keep an eye on things. If you need any help, just ask."
Amy didn't think too much about it and hurried back to the Western restaurant to receive guests.
Su Yang narrowed his eyes. He had deliberately instructed Amy so that no one would know he was Su Yang from Songhai, wanting to avoid exposing his identity prematurely.
"Young master of the Tang family, Sang Country? This is interesting!"
