The bodyguard standing behind Bai Bing'er immediately flared up, took a step forward and blocked Bai Bing'er's front, then pulled out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at the toad, saying: "What did you say? Say it again!"

  At first, the crowd was still very arrogant, but in an instant, they were sobered up under the intimidation of the handgun. The toad swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's talk it out! Let's talk it out, we're all on the same boat, why do we need to resort to knives and guns? Haha! I have bad breath! I'm going to die, I'm going to die. Big sister, please forgive me this time!"

  The toad apologized while slapping his own face, begging for mercy from Bái Yīng. Seeing the toad's appearance, Bái Yīng's anger dissipated a lot. After all, he was one of her father's former subordinates and couldn't be too harsh on him, or else the people below would say she wasn't showing respect.

  "Alright, alright! From now on, remember to be more careful with your words. What does it mean that everyone had a meeting today? Why didn't I know about it beforehand? You only notified me when the meeting was about to start, are you all going to gang up on me?" White Ice said straightforwardly.

  The bodyguard put his hand into his pocket after hearing this, but didn't immediately take it out. The crowd's expression changed as soon as they noticed this. Originally, today was indeed to force the palace, but because there were more people on their side and they underestimated Bai Bing'er, plus Yuan Da Shao specifically asked for Bai Bing'er to go to his side.

  So they didn't even bring guns, and as a result, they were subdued in the venue. After all, this is a harmonious society, and having money doesn't mean you can act recklessly. It's unimaginable that someone like Bai Bing would have her bodyguards carrying guns at all times. Now, a group of big men have been subdued by others.

  "There's nothing to it! This is just a temporary gathering of people with no special meaning, the dragon head is overthinking it, don't you all agree!" A person who looked like another big shot intervened.

  The rest of the people immediately chimed in and said: "Yes! Yes! That's right!"

  The toad and the crow also made a sparrow, they are arrogant but not stupid, if they were stared at by Bai Bing'er now, they would immediately die, a good future is in front of them, can't lose everything because of a small mistake.

  The crow made a subtle gesture to the toad, making a phone call and then a hand motion of taking out a knife, doing it very discreetly so that neither of them noticed. He signaled for him to go out and make a phone call to get someone to come in and take over by force. Indeed, after many years of cooperation, the toad immediately understood and responded with a reassuring gesture.

  But then he saw that the toad didn't get up himself, but rather someone next to him stood up and said: "Everyone keep chatting, I'll go down and use the restroom." This was the toad's person, it's just that nobody else knew.

  After he left, the toad smiled and then gave Wu Yan a look, indicating that it was settled. The two of them exchanged a knowing smile, and then shifted their attention back to Bai Bing'er.

  "Well, in that case, what is there for us to discuss?" Bai Bing'er sat down in the main seat with a cold expression, then looked around and said.

  "Sister, we brothers came today just to hear your opinion. We have more and more people under us, but the income is only this little. If it goes on like this, it won't be enough to support our brothers." A regional leader stood up and complained.

  Bai Bing'er stared at the man until he sat down with a guilty conscience, then she withdrew her gaze and said: "I know you, Liu Da, the person in charge of the East District Bar Street. Every day, the income from the entire street is at least over 2 million, not to mention your private dealings with those white goods. Do you think I don't know? You're crying poor! It's a bit inappropriate, isn't it? I haven't even settled accounts with you yet. Who told you to sell white goods? Don't you know that I've already issued strict orders not to allow the sale of poison?"

  The person who called Liu Da looked at Bai Bing'er with some guilt but didn't say a word. He didn't speak, but someone else couldn't help it.

  "Sister, you just don't want to listen. You've given orders, but brothers need to eat too. We're in the underworld, not running a charity. Just because we don't sell white goods doesn't mean others won't. And when people come looking for it themselves, are we supposed to turn down easy money? Do you think everyone is born with a silver spoon like you? If that were true, nobody would need to come out and hustle."

  The crow's words got everyone excited and they started discussing it in hushed tones, with a hint of discontent in their eyes.

  Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore and stood up to say: "Miss, I think this business is a natural transaction of buying and selling, you can't block our way of making a living, we are gangsters, if we could do something else, we wouldn't have to come out and struggle desperately."

  "That's right! I entered this circle to live a carefree life, if it's just going to be working from 9 to 5 every day, why bother coming out? Can't I just go teach at a kindergarten?"

  "Haha! You think you can be a teacher? What you teach will work? Don't scare people to tears later."

  "Nonsense, if I could change careers after getting mixed up in society, I would have done so long ago! At least then I wouldn't be teaching you how to fight. But once we've entered this dark path, it's not easy to turn back and become clean. I know you want us all to walk the straight and narrow, so we can have a good later life, but have you thought about it? If we don't do this, we won't have any money, and without money, we won't be able to survive. In the end, we'll just be replaced by others. And in the underworld, being replaced means only one thing: getting killed. Maybe someday they'll find a few scraps of our remains in some sewer."

  Bai Bing didn't expect that she had used up all her connections with her father, and what she wanted was just a chance to whitewash herself. Everything was going smoothly according to plan, but at this time, something unexpected happened - the people under her hand rebelled, or rather, it's not exactly rebellion, they were just too accustomed to their current life, and it was really hard for them to live like ordinary people.

  "It turns out that everyone was talking about this matter, and since it's been brought up, I'll say something. This matter has always been my father's wish. Due to the dark times we're living in, my father had already started preparing for the whitening of our organization while he was still alive. It's just that his sudden passing didn't allow him to implement it. Now, I'm simply carrying out my father's will. If any uncles or elders think I've done something wrong or don't want to work together, please speak up. We're still one family after all, and speaking up is good for everyone. Don't worry, I, Bai Bing'er, am not someone who makes things difficult for others. If anyone among you is unwilling, I won't force it, but the plan must be carried out."

  After Bai Bing'er finished speaking, the conference room fell silent, and those who were originally discussing suddenly became hesitant. Originally, today was supposed to be about letting the eldest sister step down and yield, but it turned out that the eldest sister didn't want to be the leader at all. On the contrary, she had been working hard to find a way out for everyone, to let them leave the dark society behind.

  To be honest, except for a few individuals, who isn't desperate and has no other way out would become a gangster, now although I've gotten used to it, but in my heart I'm still very grateful that the young lady is thinking of them like this, however this is just an idea, entering the underworld is easy, but getting out is hard.

  The silence has been silenced, but there are only a few who can stand up to support it. White Ice is very disappointed and also relaxed a lot. Perhaps her father's dream was impossible to achieve from the start. It's okay this way, anyway she has tried her best.

  "You bastards, Big Sister has been so good to you, why don't you support her! Big Sister! We support you!" The speaker was a small leader in the gang, called Chicken Brother. He was originally sent to protect Li You Ran, but Li You Ran had recently run off somewhere, so Chicken Brother returned to the gang and happened to attend the meeting with his underlings.

  It's just showing off one's status, but as soon as I arrived, I saw that the atmosphere in the conference room wasn't great, and then I heard what Big Sister said. Originally, he was Big Sister's die-hard fan, how could he not support her? Seeing no one come out to support her, he immediately stood up.

  Everyone in the conference room turned to look at him, with an expression as if they were looking at a fool. Ji Ge held his head high and walked to Bai Bing'er's back, supporting her with his actions.

  Ji Ge's actions moved Bai Bing Er somewhat, of course if possible, she would like to pretend not to know him, it was really too embarrassing, the bodyguards beside her also took two steps back with a disgusted face, as if they were not very familiar.

  "Now everyone can choose for themselves. Those who want to join us will stay, and those who don't can leave. The choice is yours." Bai Bing'er issued the final ultimatum.

  "In that case, big sister, I won't keep you company, let's go!" The crow and the toad immediately stood up. Although they didn't achieve their purpose in coming here, it was almost the same. Since someone wanted to bleach themselves, they would naturally no longer be part of the group.

  When they walked to the door, the toad stepped back two steps and said: "What are you all still stunned about? They are a clean family, not like us mixed eggs. It's better for us to choose another leader! I happen to know that there is a place very suitable for drinking and chatting, who wants to come with me? Now it's still available, if you're late, it'll be gone, haha think carefully!"

  The intention behind the words is very clear, it's to squeeze out Bai Bing'er from the club, and the threat is very serious, obviously trying to divide the territory, if anyone doesn't go, they'll lose their territory, which wouldn't look good.

  The crow and the toad left, and the remaining people couldn't sit still either. One by one, they got up and bid farewell, leaving in a hurry, even to the point where they didn't even say goodbye before leaving. Bai Bing'er did not stop this scene, she wanted to see these people clearly.

  "Just wait and see, you will regret it in the future." Bai Bing'er silently muttered to herself.

  "Brother Ji saw that everyone had left, leaving only the dozen or so brothers he brought and the people Bai Bing'er brought, totaling no more than twenty people. He asked, 'Young lady, are we really going to drift away?' His tone was full of uncertainty."
