right""Brother Qiao, it sounds like you're just making things up. I didn't even know this brother-in-law of yours before coming here; how can you say that I provoked him" Ye Shaojie replied calmly."Bi...Chapter 1160: Yin Xiaqi

If it turned out that Xia Tian could have saved someone but chose not to, and if others found out about this in the future, no one would likely be willing to help Xia Tian again. This wouldn't just apply to the Chang family; even Bai Xiaolei might think his big brother unreliable.

Considering the private relationship between the Chu and Chang families, actually Chu Yao didn’t wish for Chang Donglin to come to harm either. Therefore, deep down, she still hoped that Xia Tian would treat Chang Donglin’s injuries. After all, in her view, although Xia Tian's plan was important, there wouldn't be much loss to him if the plan couldn't be carried out as intended. But if he didn’t save Chang Donglin, Chang Donglin might die.

At this moment, Xia Tian said, “There’s no need for me to treat him anymore.”

"Why" Chu Yao was taken aback.

"The surgery has already been done." Xia Tian pointed at the resuscitation room. "They’re going to come out shortly."

Chu Yao couldn't help but look toward the resuscitation room, and so did everyone else. However, they found that the door of the resuscitation room was still closed, and the indicator light for surgery remained on.

Just as they thought that summer might be making excuses for not treating Chang Donglin, the indicator light suddenly went out and then a doctor walked out.

"Doctor, how is it" The one who approached first wasn't Chang Xiaobao or Chang Rong; it was actually those two police officers. It seemed that the police were more concerned about this matter.

"Don't worry, the patient has been taken off life support. However, he's quite old and his health isn't good. He lost a lot of blood just now, so his body is still weak. Complete recovery will take some time." The doctor briefly explained the situation, bringing relief to everyone present. That Chang Donglin was still alive was good news for everyone.

Chang Donglin was soon wheeled out of the emergency room by a nurse. Although Chang Donglin had been taken off life support, he was still unconscious now. A few minutes later, Chang Donglin was admitted to an intensive care unit, with Chang Xiaolan, Chang Xiaoping, and a nurse staying inside to take care of him. Meanwhile, Chang Xiaobao, Summer, and the rest were all standing in the corridor.

"Brother, there's something fishy about Old Master Chang being stabbed." Bai Xiaolei spoke while glancing at the two police officers not far away; one of them was on a phone call, probably reporting back on what was happening here.

"What's wrong" Summer asked.

"I had someone investigate. The person who wanted to kill Old Master Chang indeed has grudges against the Chang family. His father used to be under Old Master Chang and later did something extreme, which led to him being personally sent by Old Master Chang to jail where he eventually died. On the surface, it makes sense for him to seek revenge on Old Master Chang." Bai Xiaolei said softly: "However, the timing was too coincidental. I suspect that this is a planned assassination. So I thoroughly investigated the people who were there at the time and found issues with both the police officer escorting Old Master Chang to the restroom and the other one who arrested the murderer."

"Are those two dumb cops also from the Cheng family" Xia Tian asked, knowing that the police's actions were manipulated by the Chengs, he naturally assumed that the assassination attempt on Chang Donglin was also orchestrated by them.

"It’s not the Cheng family," Bai Xiaolei shook his head. "Big Brother, at first I thought it was done by the Cheng family too, but after investigating carefully, I found out those two police officers are actually from the Chang family."

"What" A voice of surprise came from beside them, spoken by Chang Xiao Bao. "Brother Bai, what do you mean Those two cops belong to our Chang family"

"Little Brother Chang, we're all in this business and know each other very well. We always have a few informants at the police station. Your Chang family has been operating for so many years; naturally, you’ve also placed some people there." Bai Xiaolei smiled calmly. "In fact, if you investigate yourself, you can find out that those two policemen are indeed from your Chang family, to be more specific, they're under Bian Yunxian."

"Uncle Bian How is this possible" Chang Xiao Bao looked incredulous.

"Little Brother Chang, if you don't believe it, you can check yourself. Proving this isn’t difficult," said Bai Xiaolei unhurriedly.

"Brother Bai, I'm not disbelieving, but... I just can't imagine Uncle Bian would do something like that..." Chang Xiao Bao's face was visibly displeased. As Bai Xiaolei had mentioned, verifying this wasn’t hard, so he knew Bai Xiaolei wouldn't deliberately deceive him; the truth was simply too hard for him to accept.

"Little Black, are you saying that the guy named Bian Yunxia wants to get rid of Old Chang" Xia Tian asked from beside them at this moment.

"I'm not sure about this," Bai Xiaole said softly: "Bian Yunxia has always been one of Old Master Chang's most capable subordinates, a heavyweight figure in the underworld. If he wants to break free from the Chang family's control and start his own operation, then Old Master Chang would undoubtedly be his biggest obstacle."

Chang Xiaobao's expression was uncertain for quite some time before turning towards Chang Rong and asking softly: "Uncle Rong, you should know something about Uncle Bian's movements, right"

Chang Rong also looked rather displeased. After a moment of silence, he replied softly: "Actually, the old man was always the most loyal subordinate to Uncle Lin before. Everyone, including myself, thought that the old man would be the best successor for Uncle Lin after you got injured."

"I've heard about this too," Bai Xiaole added in, "which is why we investigated Bian Yunxia more thoroughly and knew that those two policemen today were his men."

Chang Rong nodded then continued: "Actually, Uncle Lin has been spending most of his time helping you find doctors since your injury. He's no longer involved in the gang’s affairs as much anymore and he started to consciously transfer some power to the old man. After all, Uncle Lin is getting older and will eventually retire, while the old man has always treated you well, so Uncle Lin believed that the old man would take good care of you in the future. However, no one expected things to change."

Turning his head to look at Xia Tian, Chang Rong continued: "The appearance of Divine Doctor Xia gave Uncle Lin hope, and once Divine Doctor Xia cured your illness, everything began to shift. Although Uncle Lin still doesn't want you involved in the underworld and wishes for a comfortable life for you, everyone now thinks that Uncle Bian’s chances of succeeding Uncle Lin are slim.

No matter whether it's Chang Rong or Bai Xiaolei and others nearby, they all think this is quite normal. After all, Chang Xiaobao is the only grandson of Chang Donglin, so naturally entrusting him with the family business makes perfect sense.

"Actually, Grandpa once told me that he hopes Uncle Bian continues to manage the gang. However, due to his concern about my future, he thinks I should take over the position nominally while having Uncle Bian and Uncle Rong assist me." Chang Xiaobao whispered: "I remember Grandpa saying that Uncle Bian has no objections."

"Xiaobao, Old Bian would naturally not show any disagreement outwardly. However, I did hear some rumors stating that Old Bian told someone that Uncle Lin favors relatives, and because he doesn't have the surname Chang, he can’t take over from Uncle Lin." When Chang Rong mentioned this, his expression suddenly changed: "He's here!"

The elevator doors just opened when a man walked out first. He was wearing a black windbreaker with sunglasses on; he had a robust build and sharp eyes that gave off an intimidating aura.

Following behind the big man were four young men in suits, who seemed to be his bodyguards. After these five people came out of the elevator, several seconds later another young man leisurely walked out.

This young man appeared to be around twenty years old, not tall, somewhat thin with an unremarkable appearance and ordinary attire, someone that could easily blend into a crowd. Yet walking alongside the other five men made him seem rather distinctive.

The young man was always at the back of the group; when the robust man arrived in front of everyone with his four bodyguards, he still lagged behind by about ten meters or so.

"Brother Rong, Little Bao, how is Uncle Lin" The burly man glanced at everyone and then asked.

Chang Xiaobao was about to speak when Chang Rong immediately replied: "He has been out of danger but hasn't woken up yet."

"Not awake yet" The burly man frowned, then changed the subject. "Fortunately, I had prepared for this and specially invited a renowned miracle doctor."do now" Looking at the five guys lying on the ground unable to move or speak, Wang Xiaoya asked again.“It seems it's getting late. Let’s go have some food.” After thinking for a moment, Xia Tian said....
