Having spoken so earnestly, Song Qiao still didn't believe him?
Sun Tengfei clenched his fists.
The repeated distrust made him feel insulted and looked down upon.
"This matter concerns you. Given how much I've said, consider it again."
"It concerns me?"
Song Qiao felt that while Sun Tengfei was a bit reckless, he didn't seem like he was trying to threaten him.
What ties did Tongmen have to him?
A million thoughts flashed through Song Qiao's mind.
Mo Ling was also thinking for Song Qiao.
After all, inviting Song Qiao to be a helmsman, while drawing criticism from others, also brought him resources that many people only dreamed of.
Many simple matters would become incredibly easy for Song Qiao with Tongmen's background, without him having to personally intervene.
It all depended on how Song Qiao weighed his options.
Thinking this, Mo Ling felt Song Qiao would also realize it.
"Song Qiao, for peace of mind, why not ask the Provincial Leader for his opinion?"
The Provincial Leader was currently preoccupied with his son's affairs. Song Qiao didn't want to disturb him rashly due to inaccurate information.
"Tell me first, what impact will joining Tongmen have on me?"
Seeing Song Qiao soften his stance, Sun Tengfei opened the car door and sat down, speaking weakly.
"You had a falling out with the Guo family some time ago, didn't you!"
"The Deng family has also been implicated because of it."
"Yes."
"Have you ever understood the background behind the Guo family?"
"No."
Song Qiao had no idea of the consequences his actions might bring.
Sun Tengfei felt a headache coming on.
Why did he have to take a liking to this impulsive young man?
Sun Tengfei reorganized his breathing and said,
"The Guo family was originally nothing remarkable."
"Or rather, the Guo family is a spokesperson for many forces."
"They have three major sects in China as their patrons, as well as many high-level connections. More troublesome is that the Guo family also has dealings with many international organizations."
Mo Ling, working in the security department, had heard whispers about the Guo family's background, but the file level was beyond her reach, so she never knew the full story.
Hearing Sun Tengfei's words today sent a chill down her spine.
"The Guo family is a colossal entity!"
"Heh, Miss Mo's description is accurate."
Sun Tengfei gave a wry smile.
"If they weren't supported by so many forces, how could the Deng family have been suppressed and repeatedly defeated?"
Song Qiao could now somewhat imagine the Deng family's exhaustion and felt a pang of guilt.
"But how does this relate to me joining Tongmen?"
"I'm saying, you have many enemies!"
"Mm!"
The path to dominance was always paved with stepping stones and stumbling blocks; Song Qiao was not surprised by this.
Sun Tengfei saw no sign of panic from Song Qiao and continued to try and intimidate him.
"The crucial point is that your enemies have now united to deal with you!"
Song Qiao sneered,
"Even better. It will be convenient to catch them all at once."
"It will save a lot of trouble."
Did people speak?
Sun Tengfei's face was full of question marks.
"Confidence is good, but too much becomes arrogance!"
"Arrogance comes with a price!"
Witnessing Song Qiao's arrogance, Sun Tengfei instantly regretted coming to see him today.
What if he dragged Tongmen into the mire?
"If you want peace, you need various social resources!"
"Tongmen will be your best asset!"
"You're an old hand, you must understand this logic, right?"
"The strength of one person..."
Song Qiao couldn't stand Sun Tengfei's lecturing tone and waved his hand to interrupt him.
"Let me finish!"
"If you're afraid that a criminal background will invite criticism, why don't you consider that before others try to criticize you and make things difficult, they would first consider your criminal background?"
An unheard-of perspective.
Mo Ling had actually thought of this point long ago, and Song Qiao was also swayed by Sun Tengfei's analysis.
Seeing that his persuasion was effective, Sun Tengfei seized the opportunity and said,
"Currently, Tongmen is also at odds with some of the forces behind the Guo family."
"If Tongmen is suppressed, the Deng family will be in grave danger!"
"It is precisely at times like these that we should unite!"
"And you are the best link!"
"The position of helmsman is already the greatest sincerity we can offer!"
After Sun Tengfei finished speaking, Song Qiao's expression remained calm, making it hard to gauge his thoughts.
But Mo Ling was clearly moved.
If Song Qiao could control the underworld and reform the environment, this identity would only propel him further!
"Song Qiao, why not consider Sun Tengfei's suggestion?"
Song Qiao nodded slightly, and Sun Tengfei was overjoyed.
The Imperial Capital was the heart of China, a weather vane for many powerful factions.
If Modu was the gathering place of China's top forces, then the Imperial Capital was the gathering place of super-first-tier, centuries-old families.
If Modu was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, then the Imperial Capital was a place of gathering storms!
Song Qiao had to be cautious.
If he could leverage the power of Tongmen and lay the groundwork in the Imperial Capital in advance, it would also be beneficial for his future endeavors.
Song Qiao finally agreed.
"I accept your invitation."
"But I have a condition."
Upon hearing Song Qiao agree, Sun Tengfei hobbled over to them.
"You cannot restrict my freedom!"
Sun Tengfei extended an olive branch to Song Qiao primarily because Song Qiao was strong, and his dominant demeanor exuded a sense of cohesion!
This was precisely what Tongmen needed at the moment.
"Of course, I'm not asking you to come here and be imprisoned."
