Jaeger and Yoshua Hu's expressions changed. However, Jaeger's expression soon calmed.
His face darkened and his tone steeled. He shouted, "Mr. Chen, I know you are famous, but don't forget that this is Hanover City, not Bay City. Some things are better left unsaid, Mr. Chen."
The minute he said that, Fade Chen noticed bright red spots dancing across his eyes. Upon closer inspection, he found that there were two of them focused on his chest, and another two right behind him.
"Sniper!" He looked up abruptly in the direction of the red dot.
He could detect snipers laying a few hundred metres away on the outer wall of the small restaurant, on top of the man-made hill as well as at the wooden attics surrounding him. The four snipers had Fade surrounded with no chance to avoid the path of the bullets. Clearly, they wanted him dead at all costs.
Fade's expression hardened at the sight of this.
Towards Jaeger, Fade's expression was a look of fear.
Instantly, Jaeger's calm and confident demeanor returned. He looked at Fade with a smile and said, "Mr. Chen, in fact, the Hu Family doesn't kill people easily."
"But when some people cross the line, we really have no other choice but to deal with them." Jaeger looked at Fade. "Mr. Chen, do you understand what I mean?"
"What are you trying to say?" Fade remained calm and even picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
Jaeger thought Fade was pretending to be calm. He smiled confidently and said, "Mr. Chen, you came to Hanover City on the pretense of just visiting. Yet in reality, you had already joined hands with Hubert Qian to drive the Guo family away, and then set a banquet to shock everyone. Finally, you challenged my Hu family and wanted to take the opportunity to uproot us from power. Just like how you conquered Bay City, you want to conquer Hanover City."
Fade Chen burst out laughing and thought to himself that Jaeger was overthinking. The following events that happened was only because of a conflict during the trip.
In Jaeger's eyes, Fade's smile looked fake and forced. He became more confident and said, "If my guess is right, Mr. Chen's subordinates in Bay City have already secretly entered Hanover City. Jimmy Wei's sudden departure is to give way to you."
Fade shook his head and was speechless. If he really wanted to destroy the Hu family and unify Hanover City, he could just singlehandedly take on the whole Hu family. Why would he bother going through all the trouble? These people didn't understand his strength, so they tried to figure out his strategies based on ordinary thinking.
But what they didn't know was that Fade's strength had already surpassed them by several levels. He did not need to use any tricks and could just crush them directly.
"You're speechless now that I've figured everything out, aren't you?" Jaeger smirked with a confident smile.
Yoshua and others looked at Jaeger with respect and admiration. At the same time, they secretly looked at Fade with displeasure and discontent.
Fade was indifferent and said, "Well, what if the rumours were fake? What would you have done? Even if they're true, what are you planning to do then?"
Jaeger chuckled and raised his glass, "If the rumours are fake and I am wrong, this banquet will remain as a banquet. Mr. Chen, you can return after eating."
Following that, his tone changed and his voice was sharp and stern with oppression. He threatened, "However, if it's true, I would like to ask Mr. Chen to return from wherever you came from. Don't think about making trouble in Hanover City."
"This... is not your territory, Lunatic Chen!" Jaeger narrowed his eyes and glared at Fade with a confident expression.
