"Beep beep beep..."

The whistles of the surrounding prison guards kept sounding, but the armed guards didn't return as quickly as before.

The warden shook his pant legs, and it took him a while to come to his senses. He raised his hand to stop the guards from blowing their whistles.

Wet himself from fear, how embarrassing.

He didn't want his subordinates to see him in such a disheveled state.

But those guards in the dining hall had actually already seen it, yet no one dared to laugh at the warden. On one hand, the warden was their leader, who would dare to laugh at their leader? On the other hand, the scene just now was indeed perilous, and the guards asked themselves, if it had happened to them, they wouldn't have fared any better than the warden.

Possibly would have been so scared they'd wet themselves and cry for their mothers.

At this moment, the warden came back to his senses from the shock, looked up at Ye Tianfan, his lips trembling, and said, "Thank you..."

Ye Tianfan smiled and said, "The warden won't extend my sentence because I killed someone, will he?"

"He deserved it!" the warden then smiled at Ye Tianfan and said, "You acted in self-defense."

"That's good."

Ye Tianfan turned and sat down. This meal wasn't of much interest, so he simply looked up at the TV in the prison dining hall. Although, according to higher-ups, the prison was equipped with a TV in the dining hall, it was basically never turned on.

"Warden, turn on the TV, I want to watch the news."

"What?" The warden, who had just calmed down, didn't react for a moment.

"I want to watch the news."

"Okay, okay... I'll have someone turn it on right away."

Ye Tianfan had just saved his life, so now that he wanted to watch TV, the warden was naturally happy to do him this favor. Within a few minutes, someone had turned on the TV.

But at this moment, the assembly whistle sounded, signaling the end of mealtime for the prisoners.

"Warden?" Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow.

The warden naturally understood what he meant and quickly waved off the guard who was about to approach, saying, "You go back first, I will personally escort this prisoner back later!"

The guard hesitated for a moment, cautiously saying, "Warden, he is a death row inmate... what if..."

This guard meant well. Monitoring death row inmates is always more strict than regular prisoners. Even though sentenced to death, there is a term, and if he escapes or suddenly dies before execution, it's an incident. Not only would the warden be held accountable, but the guard responsible would also lose their job.

The warden certainly understood this principle. However, Ye Tianfan's status was special. Not only was he someone the head enterprises in Jiangzhou City wanted to take care of explicitly, but he had also just saved his life, so special treatment was warranted.

Therefore, before the guard could finish speaking, the warden was displeased and angrily said, "Am I the warden, or are you the warden? Enough chatter, get out!"

"Yes, yes..."

The guard nodded repeatedly, glanced at Ye Tianfan, then turned and left the prison dining hall.

At this point, the warden smiled and said, "Brother Ye... oh no, Mr. Ye, what channel would you like to watch?"

"The news."

"The news?" The warden was slightly taken aback.

"Financial news." Ye Tianfan slightly frowned, with some impatience.

"Alright, alright, whatever you want to watch, we will watch."

The warden quickly tuned to the Jiangzhou City financial channel.

The TV screen was broadcasting recent corporate news from Jiangzhou City.

"Qin Group's stock plummeted, Qin Wujue, the Qin Family's behind-the-scenes controller, refused all interviews. Qin Group's trade hub in the Lingbei area was officially acquired by Imperial Group, Imperial Group Chairman..."

This piece of news made Ye Tianfan furrow his brow; the trade hub in the Lingbei area still couldn't be saved! Turns out Fang Zaitian indeed had unique methods in business, even Elder Qin couldn't protect that prime location of feng shui,

Now the decline of the Qin Family is a foregone conclusion.

If no one steps in to stop Fang Zaitian, the entire business community of Jiangzhou City might soon fall into his hands.

Ye Tianfan clenched his fist; he didn't know what means Fang Zaitian used to make Qin Wujue so constrained that even the Lingbei area's trade hub couldn't be saved.

If this trend continues, the business overlord of Jiangzhou City might not be the Qin Family or the Long Family, but the Fang Family!

"Pour me a glass of water." Ye Tianfan said expressionlessly to the warden, almost in a commanding tone.

The warden's face changed slightly, though he was unhappy with Ye Tianfan's attitude, he still rose to have someone pour a glass of hot water.

"Mr. Ye, it's about time, shouldn't you return to the cell?" the warden began to urge.

Ye Tianfan, however, showed no intention to leave. On the TV, the screen turned and a group of reporters surrounded the Long Group building, seemingly waiting for something.

A reporter, holding a microphone, said, "It is reported that the general manager of the sales department of Long Group suddenly resigned today for unknown reasons. The Long Group's sales department is completely paralyzed, and the contract for a sales deal of seventy-five million has been terminated. The Long Group is now facing the threat of bankruptcy."

The general manager of the sales department?

Suddenly resigned?

Isn't the general manager of the sales department of Long Group Su Yueyi?

Reasonably speaking, she was just a recent graduate from Kyoto University, fresh out of school and into Long Group, and became the general manager of the sales department; she rose to fame and skyrocketed to success.

Her former classmates all looked at her with envy, even Ye Tianfan found it incredible; how did someone with average grades and no standout qualities catch Long Yuqing's eye?

But that's how it was; Su Yueyi skyrocketed to become the general manager of the Long Group's sales department, only to suddenly resign at a critical moment now.

There must be a story behind it.

"Clap..."

The warden turned off the TV, his face somewhat unsightly.

"Mr. Ye, it's about time, you should return to the cell. This is, after all, a prison, not..."

"Got it." Ye Tianfan was not angry, just slowly stood up, and turned to walk out of the dining hall.

The warden quickly followed, one in front and one behind, as they headed toward the S-level high-security prisoner area.

"Clatter..."

The hydraulic rod pushed open the two thick cell doors, a musty odor surged forward. Ye Tianfan frowned; despite the unpleasant look on his face, he raised his foot and walked inside.

"Warden... wait, warden..."

At this moment, a guard came running wildly toward the S-level high-security prisoner area, shouting loudly as he ran, "Someone... someone is here for a visit, they... they specifically asked for you to bring this prisoner over."

At this moment, Ye Tianfan suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look, and saw the guard jogging all the way, already panting heavily.

Meanwhile, the warden's expression suddenly turned grave, he said in a deep voice, "Death row inmates are not allowed visits, don't you know?"
