From cannon fodder villain to superpowered queen

The panicked voice on the other end of the phone was like a thunderclap, exploding in Bi Yao's ears: "President Bi! Something bad has happened! Our goods... have been hijacked!" Bi Yao's heart sank, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

"What happened? Explain yourself!" She forced herself to calm down, but her voice trembled uncontrollably.

"It was...it was Ma Liu! Ma Liu and his gang did it! They blocked all our trucks and stole all our goods!" The subordinate's intermittent report was like a sharp knife piercing Bi Yao's heart.

Mazda 6!

It's that persistent ghost again!

This notorious robber specializes in highway robbery. I'd heard he was active in this area before, but I never expected he'd target me this time.

Anger surged in her chest, and Bi Yao slammed down the phone.

You, Zhang Yuanshan, have actually resorted to the trick of using someone else to do your dirty work!

She was almost certain that Zhang Yuanshan was involved in this matter!

How could a desperate criminal like Ma Liu dare to rob her goods so blatantly without some powerful backer?

She immediately dialed Zhang Yuanshan's number, her tone icy cold: "Zhang Yuanshan, what do you mean by this?!"

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Yuanshan's voice carried a hint of smugness: "President Bi, I don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean? Your goods were robbed, what does that have to do with me?" His tone was full of feigned surprise, as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Stop pretending!" Bi Yao roared. "Ma Liu is your man! You dare say this has nothing to do with you?!"

Zhang Yuanshan chuckled lightly, his tone dismissive: "President Bi, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Don't slander people without evidence. Besides, even if your goods were robbed, it only shows that you lack business acumen and couldn't protect your goods. You can't blame anyone else."

“You…” Bi Yao trembled with anger, her clenched fists cracking.

That Zhang Yuanshan is truly despicable!

"President Bi, the business world is like a battlefield, where the strong prey on the weak and only the fittest survive. You should understand this principle, right?" Zhang Yuanshan continued to add fuel to the fire. "If you can't even handle this small matter, you should leave the business world as soon as possible to avoid making a fool of yourself."

"Zhang Yuanshan, you just wait!" Bi Yao said through gritted teeth, then abruptly hung up the phone.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm her agitated emotions.

No, she can't be defeated like this!

She must find a way to resolve this crisis!

She picked up her phone and dialed a mysterious number… “Hello, it’s me…”

Bi Yao wasn't going to fall for Zhang Yuanshan's psychological manipulation (PUA) tactics. She was ready to face any challenge head-on; she'd seen it all!

She sneered. Did Zhang Yuanshan, that old fox, really think she was so easily provoked?

Want to play dirty tricks?

I'll stick with you till the end!

She dialed a mysterious number, her voice low and decisive: "Black Hawk, do me a favor." A deep voice responded from the other end of the line: "Ms. Bi, just tell me what it is." "Ma Liu, you know him, right?" Bi Yao got straight to the point.

"That guy who's been quite active in the underworld lately? I heard he has a lot of ruthless thugs under his command, he's pretty troublesome." Black Hawk's voice carried a hint of amusement.

"I want him to disappear." Bi Yao's tone was icy, without the slightest hesitation.

"Tsk tsk, Mr. Bi is indeed generous," Black Hawk chuckled. "As for the fee..." Bi Yao interrupted him directly: "Five million after the deal is done." There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Black Hawk's hearty laughter: "Deal! Mr. Bi, just wait for my good news!"

On the other side, Ma Liu was smugly counting the stolen goods, humming a little tune.

"Boss, we've really struck it rich this time! This batch of goods is worth a fortune!" A henchman approached with a fawning expression.

Ma Liu patted him on the shoulder and laughed heartily: "That's right! Don't you know who I am! When Ma Liu takes action, there's nothing he can't handle!"

Suddenly, the warehouse door was kicked open with a bang, and a man dressed in black and wearing a black mask walked in.

"Who is it! You're asking for trouble, daring to trespass on my territory!" Ma Liu roared, grabbing a machete and charging forward.

The man in black dodged Ma Liu's attack with a swift movement, then delivered a backhand punch that struck Ma Liu squarely in the abdomen.

Ma Liu let out a miserable scream, clutching his stomach as he collapsed to the ground.

"Who...who are you..." he managed to utter, his eyes filled with terror.

The man in black didn't speak, but coldly glanced at the henchmen around him.

"The boss has been knocked down! Brothers, let's go!" A henchman charged forward wielding a machete, and the others followed suit.

The man in black was agile and fought against multiple opponents without being at a disadvantage.

His punches and kicks were swift as the wind, each move deadly.

The henchmen were knocked to the ground one by one, groaning in pain.

Ma Liu struggled to his feet, trying to escape, but the man in black grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

"Who...who are you..." Ma Liu's voice trembled, filled with fear.

The man in black removed his mask, revealing a cold and stern face.

“Black Hawk,” he said coldly, “someone is paying to have you killed.”

The fighting inside the warehouse grew increasingly intense, with screams echoing throughout...

At the same time, Bi Yao's phone rang...

"Mr. Bi, things are a bit tricky..." Black Hawk's voice on the other end of the phone sounded somewhat grave: "That old bastard Ma Liu is a tough one. He brought a lot of men, and they're all ruthless thugs, tough nuts to crack..."

Bi Yao frowned, a sense of foreboding washing over her: "Not enough manpower?"

“No, that’s not it,” Black Hawk paused, “It’s just… that old fox Zhang Yuanshan somehow got the news and is now spreading rumors all over the world that you’ve offended some powerful figures in the underworld, that you deserved to have your goods robbed, and he’s even adding fuel to the fire by saying that your future business will never be peaceful…”

"That old dog!" Bi Yao slammed her fist on the table, her teeth itching with anger.

Zhang Yuanshan's move was truly a decisive blow, a ruthless attack that struck at the heart of the enemy!

This is going to ruin her!

Once her business reputation is damaged, who would dare to cooperate with her in the future?

This is even more deadly than cargo being stolen!

"You hold off Ma Liu for now, I'll handle things on my end right away!" Bi Yao made a decisive decision, immediately hung up the phone, and began contacting her network of contacts to prepare for releasing information about a counterattack.

"Hey, Old K, do me a favor... Yes, I need to spread some news... Say that Zhang Yuanshan is the one who colluded with Ma Liu, that he ordered Ma Liu to rob my goods, and as for the evidence... just say that I have key clues and am investigating further... Yes, it has to be fast! The faster the better!"

Bi Yao hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and tried to stay calm.

When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it!

Zhang Yuanshan, if you want to play, I'll play along to the end!

The news spread like wildfire through the business world, and rumors and gossip flew everywhere.

The previously one-sided public opinion began to reverse, and many people began to question Zhang Yuanshan's motives.

After all, Zhang Yuanshan had been targeting Bi Yao for a long time, and this incident was too coincidental.

Zhang Yuanshan quickly received the news and was furious: "Damn Bi Yao! How dare she bite back!" He slammed down the phone, his face ashen.

Meanwhile, in Ma Liu's warehouse, the battle had reached a fever pitch.

Black Hawk, despite his exceptional skills, was gradually finding himself struggling against multiple opponents.

"Boss, this kid is too strong, we can't hold him off!" a henchman shouted in terror.

Ma Liu glared at him fiercely: "You have to hold on whether you can or not! Anyone who dares to back down will be killed by me!"

Just then, a police siren sounded outside the warehouse...

Bi Yao's phone rang again... "Bi Yao, it's done..."
