The Dragon City.

In the phone call, An Qiqi only said that she wanted Su Tianyu to meet Tan Mingzhao. Su Tianyu pressed for a reason, but An Qiqi refused to say, only telling him that he would know when he arrived. Unable to resist An Qiqi, Su Tianyu had no choice but to bring his men to the hotel as agreed.

An Qiqi was standing right at the front entrance. Seeing Su Tianyu get out of the car, she immediately went to greet him.

"I was worried you wouldn't come!" An Qiqi said with a smile. "Let's go, he's already here."

Su Tianyu looked at An Qiqi and frowned, asking, "Tell me the truth… What exactly do you want to talk about by arranging this meeting between me and Tan Mingzhao?"

"You're so smart, can't you guess?" An Qiqi chuckled, not answering directly, but replying nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Su Tianyu sighed helplessly and asked, "You're not really planning to have him join the Huatong Society, are you?"

An Qiqi waved her hand. "Oh! He won't really join either! To put it bluntly, everyone is just taking advantage of each other."

Su Tianyu looked at her with his hands behind his back. "You've been out of sight these past few days, just secretly working on this?"

"Since we've temporarily fallen out with the Huagong Society, we have to find a way to fill the gap they left, and the Tan family is the most suitable," An Qiqi said softly. "Our own Huatong Society will be established sooner or later. Since we're going to do it, we must gather the momentum of the sea and sky, and do whatever is beneficial to us. Don't be so confrontational with him later. The Tan family needs Lao Li's support now, right? And we also need the Tan family to join us to further expand our influence! With the Tan family, it represents a close military and political relationship in The Dragon City, although this is temporary."

Saying this, An Qiqi looked at Su Tianyu and asked softly, "When you go in later, don't look too awkward, and don't be too aggressive, okay?"

Since An Qiqi had said so, Su Tianyu had no choice but to nod. "You're more patient than me now."

"Hehe." An Qiqi smiled indifferently.

The two went upstairs and entered the private room.

As soon as he pushed open the door of the private room, Su Tianyu saw Tan Mingzhao sitting at the table. He sat upright in his chair, smoking a cigarette. After seeing Su Tianyu, he didn't say anything, just nodded at him expressionlessly.

Seeing Tan Mingzhao's cowardly appearance, Su Tianyu didn't want to talk either. He directly pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Tan Mingzhao. The two of them sat there silently, like duds, without saying a word.

An Qiqi glanced at the two of them. To ease the awkward atmosphere, she took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle, filled their glasses, and then raised her own glass, saying to the two of them, "You two are both influential figures in The Dragon City! One is Mayor Li's right-hand man, and the other is Commander Tan's son. I'm really honored to be able to invite both of you as guests today. Come on, I'll toast you both."

An Qiqi knew about the previous conflicts between Lao Li's team and the Tan family, but the situation in The Dragon City was different now. She didn't expect the two families to reconcile as before, which wasn't realistic. All she could do was try to make them look harmonious and use each other's energy to jointly resist stronger pressure.

Tan Hengqiang had already been put in a position where he had to run for the Deputy Commander of the Chinese Legion, and he needed some support from the administrative department of The Dragon City, while Su Tianyu wanted to establish the Huagong Society and could also take advantage of the other party.

Therefore, An Qiqi's original intention was also to invisibly provide Su Tianyu with strength, which the latter understood in his heart.

An Qiqi took the initiative to mediate, and the two took the opportunity to step down, raising their glasses and clinking them lightly.

The three of them took a small sip of wine and put down their glasses.

Tan Mingzhao was the first to speak. "It's not a big problem for us to have our political and business people join you. It's just that we're expressing our support for Chinese social organizations. We can do it, but in return, Mayor Li has to give us some support."

Tan Mingzhao was very direct, and Su Tianyu didn't beat around the bush either, frowning and asking, "What kind of support do you want?"

"Strengthen close ties," Tan Mingzhao said openly. "Talk about the issue of the garrison in public, express support, and have a strong sense of interaction."

"Hehe, how do you want to talk about it?" Su Tianyu smiled upon hearing this. "Talk about how the border of The Dragon City is in chaos under Commander Tan's rule? And how the Mexican government army is about to go to war?"

An Qiqi almost spat out the wine she had just drunk. She hurriedly glared at Su Tianyu.

"If you don't want to talk, then I'll leave," Tan Mingzhao said, making a gesture to get up.

Su Tianyu laughed and pulled Tan Mingzhao back, saying, "Brother Tan, don't be excited, sit down, sit down!"

Tan Mingzhao looked at Su Tianyu's sly face, speechless.

"Just kidding, Brother Tan…" Su Tianyu picked up the wine bottle and personally filled Tan Mingzhao's glass, saying at the same time, "Actually, I sincerely hope you can join…"

An Qiqi, who was sitting next to him, knew immediately that Su Tianyu was up to no good when she heard this.

…

Saint Paul City, Huagong Society Action Team Hall.

Wang An, Wang Xiao, and a group of their men were sitting in the hall, discussing the plan to assassinate Yi Sheng.

After talking for about two hours, Wang Xiao waved his hand and said to his team members, "You guys discuss the specific action plan and send someone to Huafu in advance to scout it out."

The crowd nodded, while Wang Xiao pulled his younger brother Wang An aside to smoke.

He took out a cigarette case, took out two cigarettes, and handed one to Wang An.

"Damn it… this Wu Boxin, he's acting a bit strange today!" Wang Xiao complained casually as he lit a cigarette. "Doesn't he dislike being radical? Why is he taking the lead this time and suggesting that we deal with Yi Sheng?"

"Who knows?" Wang An shook his head. "I don't understand what he's trying to do. Maybe he's already reached an agreement with Lao Huo."

The two looked at each other, fell silent, and lowered their heads to smoke.

"Alright." After finishing a cigarette, Wang Xiao threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stomped it out, and at the same time instructed his younger brother, "Yi Sheng is not a simple person. His position is so important now, the Central Bureau's protection of him must be unprecedented. You have to be careful."

"Don't worry, bro," Wang An nodded. "I will make full preparations before taking action."

As the two were talking, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Su Tiannan walked in.

"Sorry, I'm late," Su Tiannan greeted Wang An and Wang Xiao. "I contacted a few informants, which took some time."

"It's okay," Wang An threw down his cigarette butt and walked towards Su Tiannan, smiling at the same time, "Little Su, this time we'll have to rely on you for the peripheral intelligence."

"You're too kind," Su Tiannan said quickly. "This is all I should do!"

The three of them smiled at each other, and then Wang An said, "Get ready, we'll set off for District One the day after tomorrow."

Su Tiannan nodded, his right eyelid twitching wildly.
