Chapter 433 More Brillian
Time passed by in a blink of an eye.
While Jiang Yue and Fu Jin were busy with the preparations for his birthday, some people were also busy scheming on how to embarrass the couple. After all, the best way to discredit Moon Empire was to embarrass its owner on their own birthday, right?
Mia smiled at the photo of both Jiang Yue and Fu Jin in front of her. Even her husband did not know that she was already planning to show this couple that Emerald Country was not a place where they could walk in and out without any consequences.
''Is everything ready?" She asked while smiling to herself. Kim Empire was known for their diamonds and Mia wanted to use that against Fu Jin and Jiang Yue.
"Yes, Young Madam. We already have the precise location of those diamonds storage facility. We are ready to go anytime."
Mia beamed at the attendant's words. Tomorrow would be Fu Jin's birthday and she was planning to surprise the couple. In fact, not just Mia was thinking that way. Even her husband Peter and some other people from the underworld were thinking of robbing Fu Jin on his birthday.
One of those people was Mr.Ruiz, Mia's maternal grandfather. For a businessman who had survived for tens of years in the black market like him, Fu Jin's extravagant actions were something that immediately irked him. How come the man could act so arrogantly in a world that was perfectly new to him?
Of course, no matter what they did, Mr. Ruiz and many other businessmen did not see Fu Jin as a threat. After all, they did not have any idea of what he and Jiang Yue went through together.
"How many people were watching their diamond storage?" Peter asked his right-hand man.
"Right now…. Four different groups… I also have a reason to believe that one of these four groups is Young Madam's." The man answered.
"Hmmm… let her do whatever she wishes." Peter said, as his face turned serious. Just like he expected, his wife was not really as brilliant as Jiang Yue. The only thing Mia had that Jiang Yue didn't was her wide influence in the medical society. Aside from that, she was nothing compared to Jiang Yue.
In fact, Peter had already observed his wife for a long time now and was silently comparing her to Jiang Yue. Mia was extremely beautiful. Peter could even confidently say that she was way… more beautiful than Jiang Yue. Just like her three sisters, Ivy, Sam and Yui, Mia was born with a silver spoon. A princess in the modern world. However, unlike her sisters, Mia was not as smart as them. The only thing that she had ahead of her sisters was her overly doting mother who was also from another prominent family in the East.
The only reason Peter chose to marry Mia over her sisters was that she was overly doted by her grandfather, Nico Ruiz. Another prominent figure in the black market.
Nico or Mr. Ruiz was known to be the direct competitor of the Kim Family's empire. In fact, both families had fought against each other for some diamond mines in the East. Of course, the Kim Family would mostly prevail, simply because they took their roots from the East.
Now that the Kim Family was gone, Nico Ruiz would be the number one person to try and plunder all the Kim Family's assets. So his actions in surveying all the diamond mines and storage facilities owned by the Kim Family was something that Peter expected.
Right now, Peter could only watch as more and more people were planning to try and rob Fu Jin at the night of his birthday. After all, that was both Fu Jin and Jiang Yue's fault. They were too arrogant in declaring themselves as part of the black market in the East. What he could do right now is to observe and maybe add some fuel to the flame.
However, Peter seemed to be confused about something. Since Jiang Yue and Fu Jin sent the invitation, the duo had been extremely silent. There was no suspicious activity detected on their end. Only preparations for Fu Jin's birthday event. Peter found this incomprehensible. He was actually expecting both of them to prepare for the worst.
Was it possible that Jiang Yue's brilliant mind failed to analyze the possible results of their invitation? That was impossible. How could she miss something like that? But with what happened to the Li Family, was it possible that Jiang Yue and Fu Jin's priority was not Moon Empire? Could they be preparing for something else? But what could it be?
Or what if they were simply unaware of what was going to happen? Was that even possible?
Peter scoffed at his own thoughts. Underestimating Jiang Yue could be fatal, he needed to come up with a plan beforehand to counter whatever she was planning. Peter knew that he might be overthinking things, still, he couldn't just go to that party without any countermeasures.
"Master, the shipments will leave tomorrow morning." Peter heard someone inform him. He nodded in response. Tomorrow, their biggest shipment to the East would leave the port. This was another thing that he had been anticipating for quite a while now. Of course, Peter never even associated Jiang Yue to that shipment. After all, he thought that she would never have the guts to touch something that was obviously from the Vercello Family.
"Good. Inform my uncle about this." He said. "One more thing, I want you to let Young Madam use some of my men if she needs it. Tell her that I am aware of her plan." Peter then gestured for the man to leave him.
Tomorrow, there was a big possibility that Mia would fail. But to be honest, Peter did not care anymore. She was dumb enough to think that she could do that, why not let her learn her lesson?
Peter was doing it simply because of two reasons. First, supporting Mia was something that he should do to show to everyone as a supportive husband was what everyone wanted to see. And second, if she lost, Peter could have a reason to leave her.
After all, he already had his eyes on someone more brilliant than her.
Peter smiled at himself when he thought of a way to make the person who was supposed to marry Jiang Yue disappear.
'Sorry, Quan Lei… this is still about power. Our friendship is just not something that cannot amount to what Jiang Yue can give me.' Peter apologized to Quan Lei inwardly.
