Chapter 199 Master Long 2 Abandoned by the Long Family
Jiang Youli then took out her phone, opened Weibo, and saw news related to Long Junyu on the trending topics list.
Surveillance video from an underground casino has gone viral online, clearly showing Master Long's high-stakes gambling in 4K quality.
In the first shot, Long Junyu slams his diamond-encrusted Patek Philippe on the gambling table: "I'm betting this on my newly acquired Akhal-Teke horse!"
In the second scene, Long Junyu is seen embracing a minor celebrity as they sign a multi-million dollar IOU: "Don't worry, our Long family owns thirty mines in Myanmar..."
At this time, the gambling scandal involving Master Long Er and the hashtag #Revealing the Long Family's Burmese Mine Slavery Labor# had reached the tenth and ninth spots on the trending searches, respectively, igniting public opinion.
"Is this your work?" Old Master Jiang asked her.
Jiang Youli shook her head, "It wasn't me. Didn't I take Grandpa Luo home yesterday?"
Old Master Jiang understood. "If it wasn't you, then it must have been Young Master Qi's doing."
Jiang Youli had guessed that it was Qi Huan who made the move, but she was somewhat surprised that Qi Huan acted so hastily. This might be enough to deal with Long Junyu, but it wouldn't be enough to shake the entire Long family. After all, the Long family could choose to cut off their tails to survive.
Grandpa Jiang said, "Whether Qi Huan did this for his Qi family or to eliminate potential threats for you, it's a good thing that he was able to send Second Master Long to prison. It's just that now we've made enemies of the Long family. Before, it might have just been a personal grudge between Second Master Long, but now it's really become a family feud."
Jiang Youli knew that her grandfather was worried that the Jiang family could not withstand the Long family's retaliation. "Grandpa, you are wrong. Long Junyu will never let me go. He will keep looking for opportunities to take revenge on me until I become an enemy of the entire Long family."
"That's enough..." Old Master Jiang looked at his granddaughter and said in a heavy tone, "Young Master Qi's handling of Second Master Long can be considered a reassurance for our Jiang family, proving that he is willing to stand on the front line for you."
“Your second uncle and aunt’s family has moved out of the Jiang family. Too many things have happened in the family recently, and I plan to go abroad to recuperate for a while. I don’t know exactly when I will be back.” At this point, Grandpa Jiang earnestly instructed, “Youli, I have handed the Jiang family over to you. For this, I even gave up my second son’s family. From now on, Grandpa hopes that you can truly make the Jiang family’s businesses bigger and stronger.”
Jiang Youli nodded, "Grandpa, don't worry."
……
After leaving Grandpa Jiang's place, Jiang Youli first went back to the villa in the East District to put away the equity transfer agreement.
"Did your grandfather call you because of the company's shares?" Zhang Susu asked when Jiang Youli returned.
Jiang Youli waved the agreement in her hand. "Yes, it's all settled."
Zhang Susu said with relief, "That's good... You know about Master Long's matter, right?"
Jiang Youli nodded, "Grandpa told me."
Seeing her reaction, Zhang Susu knew it wasn't her doing, but it was pretty much the same to the Long family. In short, they definitely felt it was related to You Li. So she said, "Your days in Beijing will be even more difficult than before. You've offended not just Master Long, nor just the Long family, but many people who have significant interests with the Long family and are worried that you'll affect their interests. But don't worry, your father, your maternal grandparents, your uncles, and Xiao Huan will all protect you."
Jiang Youli showed no fear; on the contrary, she was eager to try.
"Alright, are you going to treat Xiao Huan now?"
"Ah."
“Go.” Zhang Susu then looked at 001. “Remember, always protect Youli.”
001 replied expressionlessly, "Understood."
……
the other side.
A tense and oppressive atmosphere permeated the Long Family Ancestral Hall.
Old Madam Long stood before her good-for-nothing second son, Long Junyu, her face ashen and eyes wide with anger. She gripped her cane tightly and kept tapping it against the floor tiles, making a series of dull thuds.
"You worthless wretch! We finally managed to pay off your huge debts in Macau last year! And yet you show no remorse, going back to your old ways to gamble heavily in underground casinos!" Old Madam Long's voice trembled with anger, her face filled with disappointment and fury. "That's bad enough, but our Long family hasn't even divested ourselves of these thirty mines in Myanmar, and now they've been exposed! Now our family business has suffered a devastating blow, and our reputation is ruined!"
The more Madam Long spoke, the more agitated she became, her eyes practically spitting fire.
"Do you know who betrayed you? It was your most favored mistress! Besides playing around with women and gambling, what else can you do that's worthwhile?!" Old Madam Long pointed her cane at Long Junyu's nose and cursed.
At this moment, Long Junyu was already terrified, his face pale, and he knelt on the cold ground of the ancestral hall, trembling all over.
He couldn't understand how anyone could investigate all his shady dealings so thoroughly.
Faced with Madam Long's angry rebuke, he lowered his head and dared not utter a word, his heart filled with fear and regret.
Just then, the butler rushed over and reported to Madam Long in a panic: "Madam, something terrible has happened! We just received news that Interpol has begun an arrest operation against our mine manager in Myanmar!"
Upon hearing this news, Old Madam Long swayed and almost lost her balance.
She took a deep breath, suppressing her anger, and glared fiercely at Long Junyu, who was still kneeling on the ground. She gritted her teeth and said, "Look what you've done!"
If this matter is not resolved properly, the Long family will suffer a severe blow!
Long Yuan, who had been silent, frowned and said, "Grandma, the only option now is to hand over Second Uncle."
Long Junyu exclaimed in horror, "Good nephew, I am your own second uncle, how could you hand me over..."
"Enough! This is all your fault, and now no one can clean up your mess!" Old Madam Long said, exasperated.
"Mom, Mom... I know I was wrong. I will never do anything reckless again. Please don't push me out..." Long Junyu knelt down and hugged Madam Long's legs.
Old Madam Long painfully shook him off, "If we don't push you out, do you expect the Long family to pay for your mistakes? You're not worth that much!"
After saying that, she told the housekeeper to take Long Junyu away.
After calming down, Madam Long looked at her grandson, "Yuan'er, what do you think of this matter?"
Long Yuan said, "It's not Jiang Youli; she doesn't have that ability yet."
"That must be that crippled boy from the Qi family." Madam Long also felt that Jiang Youli, that little girl, didn't have the ability to find out so much about the Long family's past.
Although this young lady came to our door that day, claiming that she had dirt on the Long family, it was probably just a bluff and a bully, relying on the Qi family as her backer!
"That cripple Qi Huan really dares to use our Long family to curry favor with Jiang Youli!" Old Madam Long gripped her cane tightly with her withered hand, her cloudy eyes filled with murderous intent. "Yuan'er, tell me, how do you plan to repay Qi Huan for this grand gift?"
