God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me

"Bastard, what are you thinking? He's our own father... How could you have such thoughts?"

Zhang Hong scolded her brother furiously, yet her heart couldn't help skipping a beat.

Instantly, her mind was filled with other ideas, and the method the second brother mentioned might indeed be a solution to their problem.

After all, when the decision was made to make a move against the Ye Family, all the decisions, all the execution plans, were personally ordered by the old master. It had nothing to do with themselves, right?

If Ye Fan were to hate, he should only hate our father!

If offering our father to Ye Fan could save the lives of the other members of the Zhang family, then this deal should be worth it!

But what the two brothers didn't know was, the moment the second brother spoke, Zhang Heng's facial muscles twitched violently.

"Husband, what do we do now? I'm hungry too... I didn't even have breakfast today before we were driven out!"

"Yeah!"

A group of people started to make a commotion, with Zhang Heng gone mad, everyone lost their pillar of support.

Zhang Hong looked at the three remaining coins in her pocket, then waved to everyone, "Let's go to the street and beg for food!"

"What? Beg for food, husband, you're not joking, right?"

"Do I look like I'm joking? Our family assets are all mortgaged and confiscated, our bank cards have been frozen... If you want to live a few more days, what other choice do you have?"

"At a time like this, who cares about face?"

Zhang Hong sighed helplessly, found a stick to lean on, picked up an iron wrist guard, and went out to the street to start begging, "Big brother, please, give me a little?"

To survive now, they could only do this!

Moreover, maybe, this pitiful state of the Zhang family was exactly what Ye Fan wanted to see?

In Flower Capital, inside the conference room of the Guo Corporation, Ye Fan looked at the surveillance footage of Zhang Hong and the others' actions, snorting coldly from his nose.

The people of the Zhang family, they have today too?

Humph!

When you decided to target the Ye Family, you should have expected this very end!

"Big brother, if you ask me, why not just send someone to kill them all? The seven brothers of the Ye Family and three uncles were all planned and killed by them... These bastards, each and every one of them deserves more than death!"

Wang Fugui, who was beside Ye Fan, spoke with some indignation, "If big brother, you can't bear to do it yourself, Old Wang will personally take people there and make sure they go very peacefully!"

Can't bear it?

Ye Fan snorted coldly!

These bastards almost annihilated the Ye Family, what's there for Ye Fan not to bear?

Ye Fan is not a white lotus who needs to think this and that.

Being kind to enemies is being cruel to oneself, Ye Fan knows this principle all too well.

Taking out the trash like the Zhang family with a single stroke would be extremely easy for Ye Fan.

But to let them die so easily would be letting them off too cheaply!

Ye Fan intended to keep them alive not to spare them, but to make them suffer more than death itself! He wanted them to repent for their sins and atone for their actions!

Another more important reason was that Ye Fan wanted to use the Zhang family members as bait to "smoke out" and fish for bigger prey!

Zhang Heng, as a senior councilor, already held a high position; even if he was just a pawn of the power players behind the scenes, he was a significant one.

Ye Fan deliberately made the Zhang family homeless, forcing them to wander the streets and beg, to show the big players behind the Zhang family that he meant business. He wanted to see whether they could resist intervening or not!

If they didn't intervene, the Zhang family's downfall while serving them, paired with their boss's indifferent stance, would surely lead to division within the camp of Ye Family's mortal enemies. Some would become disheartened and leave the camp.

It was a strategy to disintegrate the alliance of the Ye Family's foes, reducing the number of adversaries!

But if they did intervene to help the Zhang family, then Ye Fan could trace the connection and swiftly bring the real culprits behind the curtain to justice.

It was a strike meant to kill the spirit!

"No rush! Like turtles trapped in a jar, where can they possibly escape? I've already ordered strict surveillance on all of them; they won't get away!" Naturally, the execution of this plan was left to the members of the Tianji Pavilion.

At this point, Ye Fan was gradually beginning to feel that his own power was somewhat insufficient.

After the Ye Family suffered a significant blow, the forces they could mobilize were very limited. Many vassal families were still watching from the sidelines, and even if they offered their strength for Ye Fan to command, he could not readily trust them.

As for Guo Li and Wang Fugui, being iron brothers, they could be fully trusted, but their numbers were far too few.

It seemed it was time to create his own independent fighting force!

But he still lacked an absolute leader for the combat team... Wang Fugui's combat ability and loyalty were not in question, but in terms of intelligence, he was suitable as a deputy at best. Entrusted with full command, he still left something to be desired. This fool might even be sold off by someone and help count the money for them.

"Young Master Ye, someone outside wishes to see you! They say it's the Director of Defense of Tiannan Province..."

Just as everyone was relaxing after the battle with the Zhang family, a guard arranged outside suddenly came in to report.

"Oh? Please let him in!" Ye Fan was aware of this Director of Defense; his name was Jiang Cheng, a protégé promoted by his grandfather.

Previously, Xia Hao assisted Ye Fan, and his grandfather had told Xia Hao that if there were any difficulties, he could seek help from Jiang Cheng.

"Greetings, Young Master Ye..." Jiang Cheng strode confidently into the hall, and upon seeing Ye Fan, he respectfully bowed, "Elder Ye is worried about you and sent me to check on you. If you have any financial difficulties, I can provide some assistance!"

Jiang Cheng's words caused Lovette, Guo Li, Xuan Yufei, and the others present to be taken aback.

The old master was truly worried to bits. A financial war against the Zhang family was entirely Young Master Ye's showcase, so what support could he possibly need?

"I appreciate the sentiment, Director Jiang! However, it seems unnecessary now; the battle has ended... Look, the Zhang family has been taken down..." While speaking, Ye Fan pointed to the big screen where the green stock indices were still fluctuating and twinkling.

"It's over? You've won already... Young Master Ye, you..." Jiang Cheng's impression of Ye Fan was still of the ignorant state from before. Although Elder Ye had said Ye Fan had recovered, Jiang Cheng still had his doubts.

Moreover, in his mind, financial battles like this were supposed to last a very long time, weren't they?

"Yes! So, thank you, Director Jiang, for making the trip, but your support really isn't needed... However, with the arrangements the Ye Family has in Flower Capital, we will need to trouble you more in the future!" Ye Fan bowed slightly to Jiang Cheng, speaking politely.

Even though Jiang Cheng was a student promoted by his grandfather, Ye Fan gave him all the respect that was due.

After all, in the official circles of Tiannan Province, Jiang Cheng was one of the top five figures who sometimes could indeed be very effective.

"You're too kind, Young Master Ye. I am forever indebted to Elder Ye, and I will never forget his kindness. If Young Master Ye needs anything, I am at your service, ready to exert every effort!" Jiang Cheng quickly bowed deeply to express his sincerity.

Jiang Cheng was extremely loyal; even when the Ye Family was in a dire situation, Jiang Cheng's support never wavered. Now that the genius prodigy Young Master had awakened, Jiang Cheng's loyalty to the Ye Family was naturally more steadfast than ever!

"Young Master Ye, there is something I must remind you of... The Xia Family may run into some trouble soon..."
