Ever since Xu Biao took over Zou Liyu's operation, he lacked confidence. The one constant in his heart, supporting him, had always been Zhao Yang!
Up to now, he had always felt that he was merely working for Zhao Yang, merely maintaining the operation. But now, he had finally abandoned this thought; he now knew that Zhao Yang had never really cared for this operation. Even though Xu Biao once envied Zou Liyu's position in Yong'an to the point of being desperate for it, dreaming of taking his place, Zhao Yang simply didn't value it.
Zhao Yang killed Zou Liyu just because Zou Liyu wanted to deal with him—it was merely self-defense.
It appeared as if Zhao Yang needed only to lift a finger, and Zou Liyu was wiped out, which made it understandable that Zhao Yang didn't value this piece of the pie.
Since the operation was so easily within his reach, that suggested he was capable of obtaining much larger operations.
The issue wasn't whether he could, but whether he wanted to!
