All the banquets and dances held in the homes of major officials and wealthy businessmen in Shanghai were cancelled because of varying degrees of loss of belongings in their homes.

The wives were also ordered to stop shopping and playing mahjong. For a while, Tong Jia lost her source of information.

Fortunately, Yang Jixia, who had been outside carrying out tasks arranged by the Shanghai Municipal Government, returned. With him walking around outside and information flowing between housekeepers and maids such as Guo Xin and Tian Ma, there was not much loss in obtaining information.

Moreover, most of those officials and wealthy businessmen are the kind of people who "do not allow the common people to light lamps, but only allow the officials to set fires."

Since they can't have fun at home, they go out to have fun.

They visited almost all the nightclubs in Shanghai. The lights in the dance halls were flashing, the music was deafening, and people were dancing to their heart's content on the dance floor.

While the nightclubs were packed, the casinos were also bustling with people, and gamblers were immersed in the exciting games and couldn't extricate themselves.

At the same time, unknown evil activities are taking place in some dark corners...

For example, at this moment, on a night in late November, two people were carried out of a villa in the suburbs of Shanghai.

These were two women, both tortured to the point of being on the verge of death. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of their chests due to breathing, just looking at the white cloth covering their bodies, one would have thought that they were dead.

These two people are Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi, who are doing casino business with Brother Huang from the Green Gang.

The two of them had been making money together with Big Brother Huang from the Green Gang for four or five months. Everything was harmonious at first, but people were greedy and they thought that Big Brother Huang from the Green Gang was just a rough man who couldn't understand the account books. So they falsified the accounts in order to get more money.

This has really stirred up a hornet's nest.

Originally, Brother Huang could handle the casino business alone, and there was no need to bring in other people to share the profits.

The reason why he looked for Rong Xinzi was because he wanted to get close to Diao Yongting for the sake of Diao Yongting.

Later, Diao Yongting was marginalized by the Shanghai Municipal Government. He wanted to get in touch with Yang Jixia through Rong Xinzi, but Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) only participated for one month and withdrew in the second month without even asking for dividends.

It was also because Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) did not ask for the dividends for the last month, and even said in person that the dividends would be given to Rong Xinzi. This made Brother Huang think that the two sisters had a deep sisterly love, so he never let Rong Xinzi withdraw her shares, and even made an exception to let Rong Xinzhi join in.

At that time, he thought this was a sign of Yang Jixia's cautiousness.

After all, if something happens, the higher-ups will not only investigate him, but also his family. Letting Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) withdraw and letting his sister-in-law join in should just be a way for him to protect himself.

As long as his two sisters-in-law are involved in his business, he doesn't have to worry about no one to support him in the future.

But as time went on, he also heard some stories about the Rong sisters from other places.

When Brother Huang learned that the Rong sisters, especially Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi, often spoke ill of their eldest sister Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) in front of others, he felt something was not right.

He specially sent people to the hometown of the three sisters to investigate.

Only then did he realize that the three sisters did not grow up together and their relationship was not as good as he thought.

Just at this time, he discovered that Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi had falsified the casino's account books. Could he let these two sisters go so easily?

So, he sent two of his best-looking, sweet-talking, and first-rate servants to seduce the two sisters.

While Tong Jia was taking Tao Junle and following Yang Jixia around for social events every day, the sisters Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi, now that they had money and more people flattering them, rarely met Tong Jia anymore.

Diao Yongting originally felt that Yang Jixia had taken his position, and he had very complicated emotions towards Yang Jixia.

Since Rong Xinzi didn't visit Yang Jixia's house, Diao Yongting naturally couldn't visit either.

Qiao Hua often came to visit, but he never stayed long each time.

He wanted to seduce Tong Jia and ask her to persuade him, but Tao Junle was always with Tong Jia, which made him have no chance to be alone with her.

He wanted to curry favor with Yang Jixia and ask him to assign him some simple tasks, at least to make himself familiar to the superiors. But every time he spoke, he never got to the point. Either someone more important came to Yang Jixia's house and he had to leave, or he received a phone call and had to go out to keep an appointment.

After doing it so many times, he became a little tired.

He wanted to divert his attention, but was also reluctant to invest the money and time in Rong Xinzhi.

But if he doesn't transfer, he doesn't have the patience and time to waste any more time.

Just when he was extremely conflicted, Rong Xinzhi, who was covered in wounds and had obviously been violated, was carried to the front door of his house.

Although Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi were carried out of the suburban villa at night, the people carrying them walked all the way from the suburbs to the city, and it was already dawn by then.

Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi were each sent back to the doorstep of their own home, along with a stack of photos.

In addition to scenes of the two sisters having sex with different men, the photos also include scenes of them counting and spending money.

After Huang Da Ge's men from the Green Gang dropped the men off at their doorstep, they threw these photos at the two of them without covering them at all.

Rong Xinzi's side is not so bad. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. At least he has servants at home.

This servant was none other than Diao Ren, who had stayed in Jiangcheng to investigate the cause of his brother's death.

Under Lao Qian's guidance, he helped Lao Qian and others get rid of a spy from the Fuso Kingdom. Thinking that he had avenged his brother, he left Jiangcheng and returned to Shanghai with peace of mind.

When he came back, he found that Diao Yongting had undergone earth-shaking changes. He had originally wanted to resign and stay with Yang Jixia, but now he couldn't bring himself to leave.

Although he stayed with Diao Yongting, his heart was completely with Tian Ma.

Yes, after he came back, he recognized Tian Ma as his godmother.

Not only did he give all the remaining money to Tian Ma, he also gave every penny of his monthly salary to Tian Ma. He would bring some supplements to Tian Ma from time to time and help Tian Ma with work. He really seemed determined to take care of Tian Ma in her old age and see her to the end of her life.

So, when Diao Ren opened the door early in the morning and saw that his hostess was covered in wounds, her clothes were in disarray, and there were many unsightly photos scattered on her body, he immediately decided to send both her and the photos to Tong Jia and Yang Jixia.

He felt that even if the relationship between his sisters was not good, it was a conflict that happened behind closed doors and the joke should not be seen by outsiders.

Thanks to Diao Ren's emergency treatment and protection in front of Diao Yongting, Rong Xinzi was not greatly affected.

But it’s different with Rong Xinzhi.

Her family had no servants before, but after they made money, they hired some. However, once she came to power, she treated the servants very badly.

When the only two servants in the house discovered her miserable state, their first reaction was not to help cover it up, but to spread the word.

Not only did he use the excuse of looking for witnesses to attract neighbors to watch the fun, but he also directly fueled the fire of Qiao Hua, who was already hungover and had a headache, causing him to lose his most basic judgment.

He did not send Rong Xinzhi to the hospital immediately, nor did he send anyone to Tong Jia (Rong Xintong), nor did he go to find Rong Xinzi. Instead, in order to vent his anger at others knowing that he was surrounded by a concubine, he punched and kicked Rong Xinzhi, who was already in a coma.

It was not until bright red blood began to flow from Rong Xinzhi's body that he stopped his actions amid the screams of the crowd.

Afterwards, Rong Xinzhi was sent to the hospital by her neighbors who were worried that someone might be killed. The two servants in the house were also worried that they would be held responsible afterwards, so they went to the hospital with her.

Qiao Hua was the only one left at the door.

As the crowd dispersed, his emotions gradually calmed down.

Looking at the direction where Rong Xinzhi was being carried away, he made up his mind to completely switch to the Fuso camp.

Since he has decided to join the Japanese camp, Qiao Hua no longer wants to play along with the people on the Shanghai Municipal Government side.

He immediately returned to the house, packed up all the documents related to the Shanghai Municipal Government and all the valuables in the house, and went directly to the Fuso Consulate. He wanted to completely draw a line with everyone related to Rong Xinzhiye.

Since we want to draw a clear line, the first step is to submit a letter of surrender.

His token of allegiance was the information he brought from home. After submitting it to the Fuso Consulate, it indeed attracted their attention.

Those materials not only contained evidence of smuggling by some Shanghai officials, but also singled out some people who might have had a colored background.

Of course, because Yang Jixia had just joined the Shanghai Municipal Government and was a businessman before, and he had completed the tasks in recent times very well, Qiao Hua did not classify Yang Jixia as a person who might have a color.

But even so, 30 to 40 percent of the people in these materials are actually members of the organization.

There were also organized people in the Fuso Consulate. After learning of the existence of these materials, they had been trying to steal and destroy them before the people in the consulate had time to carefully check them, but they had never found a suitable opportunity.

Knowing that the matter was of great importance and could not be delayed any further, he quickly passed the message to his superior.

The people closest to Qiao Hua are Yang Jixia and Tong Jia (Rong Xintong), so the task of destroying the information naturally falls on these two people.

Yang Jixia and Tong Jia learned almost at the same time that Rong Xinzhi was beaten unconscious by Qiao Hua and sent to the hospital, and that Qiao Hua went to the Fuso Consulate with a large amount of information about Shanghai city officials and undercover agents.

In order to find out what exactly happened between Qiao Hua and Rong Xinzhi, Yang Jixia took two of his men to Qiao Hua's house, while Tong Jia, Tao Junle, and Tian Ma took Rong Xinzi to the hospital.

One was to see Rong Xinzi's injuries, and the other was to check on Rong Xinzhi's condition.

After knowing that the two people had overlapping external injuries and even the photos were very similar, Tong Jia immediately thought of who the attacker was.

Fortunately, when the Qing Gang members posted the photos, they were all individual photos. Even though the photos of Rong Xinzhiye were seen by everyone, it did not reveal that Rong Xinzi was also one of the people involved.

When Tong Jia rushed to the hospital, Rong Xinzhi was still receiving emergency treatment. After waiting for half an hour, the doctor came out of the emergency room.

The doctor was a blonde foreigner. She spoke to Tong Jia in broken Chinese, "I'm sorry... the patient's uterus was subjected to strong external stimulation before she was brought here, and it ruptured... I... tried my best... to save her, but I still couldn't save her... her uterus.

But she was also lucky...with God's blessing, she survived.

A nurse will communicate with you about the next accompanying work. My work is over. Goodbye."

After saying that, the doctor left.

Tong Jia looked at the two servants standing outside the emergency room, shivering, and said to them, "Take good care of your wife. I'll go pay for her medical expenses."

She originally wanted to arrange for the two sisters to stay in the same ward, but because of this unexpected incident, she changed her mind and decided not to let the two sisters get together and provoke each other.

Rong Xinzi's uterus did not rupture, but her body was badly damaged.

So, under Tong Jia's arrangement, the two sisters' wards were one upstairs and one downstairs. Rong Xinzi was taken care of by Tian Ma, and Rong Xinzhi was taken care of by two servants from her own family.

Just when she was about to go to Rong Xinzhi's house to check the situation, Yang Jixia came over with the "Divorce Certificate" that Qiao Hua left at home.

The moment the two saw the "Divorce Certificate", their eyes lit up.

Isn't this just like the pillow coming when you feel sleepy?

Originally, they thought that it was a bit unreasonable to cause trouble at the consulate just because Rong Xinzhi was beaten and hospitalized.

After all, judging from the current public sentiment, even if Qiao Hua committed domestic violence and there were photos of Rong Xinzhi cheating, he would not get any help from public opinion if he was beaten.

Things are different with this "Divorce Certificate". Rong Xinzhi is now in a coma. As the sister and brother-in-law, Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) and Yang Jixia go to negotiate the divorce terms with the brother-in-law who wants a divorce on behalf of the unconscious sister. It is a natural thing to do.

So, without stopping, the two of them took the divorce papers and Tao Junle to the Fuso Consulate.

Originally, the people at the consulate did not allow Yang Jixia and Tong Jia to enter, but Yang Jixia had previously worked for the head of the Shanghai Municipal Government and had come into contact with many people from Fuso, so he knew some of Fuso's secrets.

When he asked someone to pass the message, he secretly said two words, and the consul of Fuso politely invited them in.

He also ordered Qiao Hua to have a good talk with Yang Jixia and not to offend their good friends in Fuso Country.

Only then did Qiao Hua realize that Yang Jixia also had connections with people from Fuso Country.

While feeling that he had been careless, he also decided to take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Yang Jixia.
