Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 519: Escape

"What! Hired an assassin?!" Ma Yangrong was startled, "Are you alright?"

All he could think of was that Hu Yaorong had found some underworld figures to teach Xu Yang a lesson, or even to cripple him.

He never imagined Hu Yaorong would be so remorselessly insane as to hire a hitman.

Xu Yang said, "I’m fine. If I weren’t, would I still be able to call you?"

"True," Ma Yangrong breathed a sigh of relief, "How did you know an assassin was sent to kill you, did you take care of the assassin?"

Xu Yang chuckled, "You might not believe it when I tell you, but this assassin…"

He recounted the encounter with the assassin just now.

Of course, he left out the assassin’s appraisal of his fighting skills.

Telling him about that would just lead to more explanations, which were unnecessary. He would find out when it was time.

Ma Yangrong was astonished, "Such an assassin exists? Encountering this kind of assassin is also considered lucky!"

"Indeed," Xu Yang nodded.

If it had been any other hitman, even if they couldn’t kill him, it would have been troublesome if Zhao Yuxin was threatened.

Xu Yang continued, "Since Hu Yaorong has already made his move, let’s send him to prison. Have you collected his incriminating evidence?"

Anticipating that Hu Yaorong might not let things rest, Ma Yangrong had been collecting Hu Yaorong’s compromising materials.

As long as Hu Yaorong dared to make a move, he wouldn’t be courteous.

Ma Yangrong said with a smile, "Got it, just waiting for your order. As soon as we send it to the Harbor City police and post it online, he’ll never get out of prison in this life."

Xu Yang nodded, "Then let’s do it. I want to see the news of his arrest by tomorrow."

...

Harbor City, Villa No. 9 on Pingshan.

After dinner, Hu Yaorong always felt uneasy.

He dialed Qiu Xinhui’s number, "How is the matter with dealing with Xu Yang going?"

Qiu Xinhui responded, "President Hu, we already found an assassin a few days ago. They said they would find a chance to act. There’s no update yet, probably they haven’t made a move."

Hu Yaorong said, "I don’t know why, but I feel really uneasy tonight."

Qiu Xinhui replied, "President Hu, don’t overthink it. The assassin we hired is ranked thirtieth on the hitman leaderboard, has completed over a hundred tasks, and has never failed. This time won’t be an exception; Xu Yang is as good as dead!"

Hu Yaorong’s heart settled slightly, "I hope so, but I still feel it’s better to leave the country first. Once it’s confirmed that Xu Yang is really dead, I’ll come back."

He had great trust in his intuition.

This intuition had helped him avoid many crises.

Take the economic crises of the nineties and of the turn of the century, for instance. Before the crises hit, he had this feeling.

If he didn’t sell those financial assets, they would surely plummet in value.

Later, after he sold them, the economic crises arrived.

He successfully preserved his assets.

Those who didn’t sell suffered huge losses, with some even resorting to suicide by jumping off buildings.

Just now, after finishing dinner, he felt an inexplicable sense of panic.

This panic made him feel as if something big was about to happen, and he must leave Harbor City.

Qiu Xinhui advised, "That’s also good, go relax a bit. Come back after some time."

Since Hu Yaorong had made up his mind, it was beyond his control.

He was just Hu Yaorong’s aide and had no say over Hu Yaorong, the boss.

"Help me apply for a flight route to New York in the Beautiful Country; I’m heading to the airport right away. I hope I can board and take off immediately once I arrive."

As a wealthy magnate of Harbor City, it was natural for Hu Yaorong to own a private jet.

He could leave whenever he wished, just needing to apply for a flight route.

Moreover, for tycoons like him, applications for flight routes were almost always approved.

After hanging up, Hu Yaorong had the butler pack a little, and he hurried to the airport.

Upon arriving at the airport, he immediately boarded his private plane.

Before long, the plane took off.

Just as his plane was taking off, Harbor City police received the incriminating evidence against Hu Yaorong and related proof.

Hu Yaorong was involved in hiring a killer, money laundering, intentional injury, using illegal means to strike at competitors, unfair competition, and several other charges.

The police took it very seriously and immediately set up a special task force.

They found the relevant witnesses overnight and proceeded to verify their testimonies.

After a night of hard work, they confirmed the authenticity of the incriminating materials and evidence received.

The next day, the police issued an arrest warrant for Hu Yaorong.

However, when the police arrived at No. 9 Pingshan Villa, they discovered Hu Yaorong was already gone.

Upon questioning the butler, they learned Hu Yaorong had already left on his private plane the previous night, heading to the beautiful country.

The police froze all of his accounts in Harbor City, seized all his assets there, and issued a wanted notice.

They also reported to the national authorities, requesting them to take action in concert and to extradite Hu Yaorong back.

But Hu Yaorong was in the beautiful country already, with a substantial amount of money at his disposal.

In the world of capital, as long as you have money, countless people are willing to work for you.

It was very difficult to extradite Hu Yaorong back.

Details of Hu Yaorong’s illegal activities also appeared online.

Now people were aware that Hu Yaorong, the great philanthropist, used charity as a front for laundering money.

"Fled to the beautiful country?"

Xu Yang received the report from Ma Yangrong and furrowed his brows as well.

This old fox was indeed shrewd, having left the country in advance.

This was going to be tricky.

If Hu Yaorong were still in the country, he would certainly be locked up with no chance of turning the tables.

Abroad, with money, there was no way to touch him anymore.

He was definitely a lingering threat.

Xu Yang asked, "Is there anything we can do?"

Ma Yangrong replied with a bitter smile, "There’s nothing we can do, he definitely has a lot of money in overseas accounts. With that much money, he has enough to spend the rest of his life comfortably in the beautiful country."

Xu Yang’s brows deepened.

Without dealing with Hu Yaorong, he would have trouble resting easy.

Now that they had clashed openly, Hu Yaorong would certainly not let things go easily.

The fact that this time’s assassin didn’t act was nothing short of a miracle; he wouldn’t be so lucky next time.

If Hu Yaorong hired another assassin, it would be impossible to guard against.

At that moment, Ma Yangrong added, "Unless we hire an assassin too."

"Is taking action in the beautiful country feasible?" Xu Yang asked.

Ma Yangrong replied with a wry smile, "Mr. Xu, I think it’s possible, but I really don’t know the specifics. I’m not familiar with the beautiful country, and we are powerless in many matters. Hiring an assassin is a last resort and should never be used unless absolutely necessary. We haven’t reached that point yet."

"That’s true," Xu Yang nodded in agreement.

Hiring an assassin to kill was indeed a last resort.

It should never be done unless absolutely necessary.

But if he didn’t hire an assassin, how else could he deal with Hu Yaorong?

Ma Yangrong continued, "Perhaps we can ask local gangs for help."

Xu Yang said, "Tell me more, how do we get the local gangs to help."

Ma Yangrong explained, "As far as I know, the gangs in the beautiful country are lawless. As long as you pay them, they dare to deal even with arms trafficking, let alone just capturing a wealthy man. We could have them capture Hu Yaorong and get him out of the beautiful country, send him to another country, right to the doorstep of our embassy, and we can then bring him back home."
