Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"Bang!"

A huge noise erupted outside the Brightmoon Club, causing Young Master Shi Si's eyebrows to furrow, and he looked at Lao Liu with displeasure, asking, "What's going on? Don't you know that the last thing we need during a trial is an outside disturbance?"

Lao Liu was full of doubts too. Today, Brightmoon Club had already clearly posted a notice saying it was closed for half a day, and apart from his own trusted aides, all other staff had been given the day off and had gone home. Where was this disturbance coming from?

"My lord, please stay calm, I will check on it right away!"

As a former trial participant, Lao Liu of course knew that matters related to personal safety could not be taken lightly.

If nothing went wrong, it was still fine, but any incident could immediately cause one to go insane, unable to distinguish between illusion and reality.

As Lao Liu rushed out of the secret room and reached the front hall receiving area, he saw a group of people surrounding his trusted aide.

"What's the situation?"

Lao Liu could hardly believe that someone would dare to cause trouble on his turf in broad daylight!

"Brother Liu, these people... we don't dare to provoke them..."

His aide spoke in a lowered voice, "They don't seem like the kind to be trifled with. Just look at them, tall and sturdy, and if something really happened, just us alone wouldn't be enough to stop them..."

"Then what is their purpose here?"

Lao Liu asked gravely.

His work in Magic Capital over the years was to make friends, so being courteous to everyone never did any harm.

That's why he was the most well-liked person in Magic Capital!

If they weren't enemies, what were these people here for?

Could it be... Young Master's business has been exposed???

That was the only possibility!

Lao Liu nonchalantly stepped back a few paces, his hand in his pocket unlocking his phone and blindly typing a few characters to send to someone.

"Who's in charge here!"

A bulky man with an imposing walk shouted at the front of the group, "I'm giving you three counts, and if no one comes out, don't blame me for smashing your front door!"

"Esteemed hero, let's talk this over calmly. I'm the boss here. You all seem to be quite numerous, so why don't we move to the conference room? We can have a chat over tea, how about that?"

Lao Liu said with a forced smile as he stepped forward.

The burly man glanced down at Lao Liu with contempt and snorted, "I'm not short of your tea. We are here today because we found out that the thug who robbed the treasure this morning entered this club!"

"We were short on hands this morning and you took advantage of that. Now that we have caught the trail, we can't let this go!"

A gaudily made-up woman shouted shrilly, "You have one choice, and it's the only one: hand over the treasure and the kid, or don't blame us for getting rough!"

"Exactly, exactly! My apprentice's legs were broken and he's still lying in the hospital—this is far from over!"

Seeing the crowd's emotions suddenly become agitated, Lao Liu's face twitched.

Treasure?

What treasure could he have???

The most valuable thing he controlled was this club!

But judging by these people's attire and the way they spoke, they didn't seem like they were interested in coveting his small plot of land.

Could it be Young Master's people?

Possible!

And the likelihood was very high!

I knew it; how could Young Master risk coming back to Magic Capital if not for knowing about the emergence of a treasure, specially coming to snatch it!

Taking this into account, Lao Liu felt somewhat reassured.

He gestured with his hand for them to calm down, and continued with a smile, "I really don't know anything about this matter. I'm just the manager of this club, but I have backers too. How about I take a few minutes to ask them and then get back to you?"

"Go quickly!"

"You have five minutes! If you take any longer, we'll start searching ourselves!"

"Good, good, Xiao Li, don't just stand there, serve some tea to our heroes!"

When Lao Liu uttered these words, he positioned himself very humbly, so the words came across quite pleasing to the ears of those present.

Furthermore, given the polite demeanor of the other party, the group gradually began to calm down.

Lao Liu gave a knowing look to his trusted aid, Xiao Li, then turned and walked towards the back.

Does he look like someone who would report this matter to Shi Si?

What a joke!

Right now, the young master is busy with his son's trial, he can't be distracted, and a rash visit from me would only earn a scolding!

As the young master's left and right hand man, one must have the means to handle things!

Therefore, he planned to spike the tea meant for these visitors!

And his accomplice had already arrived, once the drug took effect, these people would be nothing but a minor complication.

Outside the Bright Moon Club, Song Yun and his two companions were seated in a car, watching what was unfolding inside.

What made Song Yun curious was that these people had only kicked open the club's main door and then quieted down, as if waiting for something.

Song Bu narrowed his eyes and nudged Song Yun with his mouth.

Following Song Bu's line of sight, Song Yun noticed that the dark corner outside the club was packed with people!

Each of these individuals was clad in black attire suitable for night movement, with their faces covered by scarves; if not for Song Bu's extraordinary eyesight, Song Yun might not have spotted them.

Suddenly, the men sprang into action, and the lights in the Bright Moon Club's reception hall abruptly dimmed.

Before the troublemakers had time to react, these men commenced a brutal assault!@@novelbin@@

Screams and muffled groans echoed out, and by the time the lights in the reception hall were turned back on, the troublemakers were lying on the floor, motionless.

"Using someone else's knife to kill, now that the knife is broken, what's your next plan?"

Song Bu massaged his temples and asked.

"Hahaha, good that it's broken!"

Song Yun shouted excitedly, "Combined, the forces behind these people are something even Shi Si couldn't resist alone!"

...

With a smile, Lao Liu returned to the secret room, noting that the trial was over, and when his son looked at Shi Si, his eyes were filled with reverence!

Lao Liu felt secretly pleased, it was a success!

"Lao Liu, is everything outside taken care of?"

Shi Si appeared very tired, sitting on an elevated seat with a hint of weariness in his eyes.

"Reporting to the young master, the troublemakers have been dealt with. The young master can safely return to the clan with the treasure now!"

"Treasure? What treasure?"

Shi Si lifted his eyelids slightly, and asked with some surprise.

"Ah? You don't know about this?"

"What exactly happened?!"

Feeling a wave of confusion, Shi Si quickly inquired.

After Lao Liu recounted the events in full, Shi Si, mustering his strength, hastily approached the door.

When he saw the faces of those lying on the ground, his legs almost gave out, and he nearly knelt down!

It's over!

He had offended a whole slew of powerful figures!

The thought of the bigwigs behind these people made Shi Si realize that from now on, whenever he left home, he'd have to request the clan for at least two more elders for protection!
