Yang Yan smiled and nodded:

"Hmm! I know, and I have a pretty good relationship with someone in their family."

Mr. Situ looked at Yang Yan with some surprise, then nodded:

"Young man, you're not simple! Even know someone from the Rothschild family. But this place is different from those guys outside!"

The elder sneered as he spoke.

Seeing the elder looking ready for a big fight, Yang Yan was also a bit stunned.

What the hell is going on!

Yang Yan wailed inwardly, then walked straight in.

"Uncle, that guy is already here. Later, you can't let him leave alive!"

Inside the Hall, Wang Hao said seriously to a middle-aged man.

"Xiao Hao, you should know how much risk Uncle is taking by helping you this time, right?"

"I imagine you know the rules of Hongmen. If people find out Uncle helped you with this, you might end up at the bottom of the sea!"

"At that time, not even your father could save you."

The middle-aged man looked seriously at Wang Hao and said earnestly.

Wang Hao put on a smiling face:

"Hehe! Uncle, you're joking. You are the Hall Master here, and you make the calls."

"Besides, if I don't say, you don't say, who else will know but heaven and earth?"

The middle-aged man slowly stood up and waved his hand lightly:

"Alright then! I won't say much more. Because of your father's relationship with me, I'll help you one more time."

"But you must remember, no one can know about this, not even your father."

At last, the middle-aged man appeared exceptionally serious, and his voice took on a sinister tone.

Wang Hao quickly patted his chest to assure:

"Don't worry, Uncle. I only want those two women, as for the rest, I know nothing of it."

"Alright, let's go! Let Uncle see what kind of vixen has you so bewitched."

With that, the middle-aged man walked out.

Just as Yang Yan and the others were continuously glancing around, a middle-aged man walked in with someone.

"So it's you, kid? Daring to strong-arm on Hongmen's turf? Are you so bold you've lost your mind? Don't you know the rules?"

He immediately scolded Yang Yan upon entering.

"Oh?"

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Yang Yan looked at him puzzled, not understanding what he meant.

"Wei Family's boy, do you know what you're doing now?"

Just as the middle-aged man was about to say something more, Mr. Situ suddenly spoke up.

Because the old man was sitting in a relatively secluded spot, the middle-aged man hadn't noticed him.

"Mr. Situ, you… why are you here too?"

The man, seeing the elder, asked with some surprise.

Bang!

Mr. Situ slapped the table and sternly shouted:

"Why am I here? If I didn't come, how would I know this is how you guys usually behave?"

"Handling matters without discernment, ruining Hongmen's reputation."

Han Ruyu couldn't help but look at old Mr. Situ in fear, curiously asking:

"Yang Yan, who exactly is this old man? How come he can scold the person in charge here at Hongmen like a subordinate!"

Yang Yan smiled and shook his head:

"Not sure. Hongmen is so vast, with too many people involved. Not to mention, Hongmen's members alone number at least two hundred thousand."

"This Hall is just the tip of the iceberg in Hongmen. As for this elder, he's probably a senior figure in Hongmen!"

In fact, Yang Yan had somewhat guessed old Mr. Situ's identity.

In the United States' Hongmen, someone with such high prestige who's also named Situ—his identity was quite obvious.

"Mr. Situ, this wasn't me acting recklessly. It's the complainant who came directly to us. Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought this guy over here!"

The middle-aged man remained calm, smiling as he explained slowly.

"Complainant? What complainant?"

Mr. Situ raised his eyebrows, looking at the middle-aged man intensely, coldly laughing as he spoke.

"That person is the complainant. He says this gentleman forcibly bought his raw stone at the exhibition."

The middle-aged man specifically pointed at the boss who sold the raw stone standing behind.

"You, I vaguely remember you. Weren't you the one who sold that stone to this young man earlier?"

The elder had been reprimanding the middle-aged man, not having looked at the person accompanying him.

Now, taking a closer look at this fellow, he immediately recognized the man.

"You have a good memory, elder!"

The raw stone boss quickly gave a thumbs-up, flattering before he spoke again:

"That's right, I was the original owner of that stone."

Although unclear of the elder's precise identity in front of him, he was very sure the other's status was not simple.

Otherwise, as the person responsible for the Hongmen United States branch, the middle-aged man couldn't still maintain a respectful attitude under the elder's scolding.

"Hehe! Wei Ying, what on earth is happening here? Don't play any tricks before me, the elder! My eyes are still sharp!"

"I might as well tell you straightforwardly, I was present the entire time when this young man bought the stone today."

"As for the truth of this matter, I, the old man, am clearly aware."

Mr. Situ meaningfully stared at the middle-aged man he referred to as the Wei Family boy, coldly laughing as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Wei Ying couldn't help but furrow his brows.

In fact, this was a straightforward incident.

Just bring Yang Yan to the Hall, and what to say was up to him.

As for other matters, they were unimportant.

But now, the sudden emergence of an elder made things difficult for him.

Others might not know the elder's identity, but he did, clearly aware!

This senior was quite prestigious around Chinatown.

Even within Hongmen, he had close ties with many big figures!

"Mr. Situ, this is not for us to decide. Since the complainant has already come to us, I naturally cannot ignore it."

"Details of the matter should be asked about from the two parties involved! Also, this is Hongmen's issue, elder, you should perhaps refrain from getting involved!"

Though still maintaining a smiling face, Wei Ying's words contained underlying meanings.

Mr. Situ was also infuriated by Wei Ying, he simply sat down and said:

"Hehe! The Wei Family boy has really grown bold, not even taking me, the elder, into account."

"Fine! I'll see how you handle this today. Just consider it an educational experience."
