"Su Zongheng... From the famous Su family?" Yamamoto Meizhu gasped."You know him?" Yamamoto Xiongcai looked at his wife. She looked very excited.
"Su Zongheng is the most successful young master in Shanghai. He is the chairman of the Dragon Rising Company and has powerful backers. Compared with him, Lin Hongyuan is nothing!" Yamamoto Meizhu grabbed her husband"s sleeve excitedly. "If he can help us, we will easily take revenge for our son! I want Ye Fei to suffer a thousand times more than our son - no, ten thousand times!"
Yamamoto Xiongcai stared at Su Zongheng with his sharp eyes. "Mr. Su, have you come to help us, then?"
"Of course," Su Zongheng smiled. "If I didn"t want to help you, why would I pay so much to find out your whereabouts from the Bar?"
"The Bar?" Yamamoto Xiongcai blinked. After a long silence, he whispered, "Which bar?"
"The Killing Bar, of course."
Su Zongheng didn"t say anything more, only smiled, confident that Yamamoto Xiongcai knew what he was talking about.
A chill ran down Yamamoto Xiongcai"s spine. "I see... the Killing Bar, the world"s top a.s.sa.s.sination and spying organization. Of course. My whereabouts are no secret, but this trip was a spur-of-the-moment decision and I hardly told anyone. Who but the Killing Bar could provide you with this information...?"
Even a great fighter like him shivered at the mere mention of the Killing Bar.
Realizing your every move is under surveillance by professional murderers is a terrible thing.
"Forget the Killing Bar for now. Let"s talk about Ye Fei," Su Zongheng waved away the gloomy atmosphere in the car.
"But, Mr. Su, why do you want to help us?" Yamamoto Xiongcai"s said in a mild tone, but his expression remained vigilant.
"I"m not helping you, I"m helping myself." Su Zongheng kept smiling. "I hope my coming to meet you here in person will convince you of my sincerity. Allow me to explain everything."
Su Zongheng continued, "Fire Dragon was a nightclub owner, earning some money to support his family, but one day Ye Fei came in, trashed his place, and called the police to have his brothers arrested. He alone managed to escape, but has been a wanted man ever since."
"I swear, I"ll catch Ye Fei and kill him!" Fire Dragon growled.
"As for me..." Su Zongheng said seriously, "To tell you the truth, I have nothing personal against Ye Fei. However, I have some… disagreements with his boss, the woman called Lin Qingwan. Moreover, because of her father, Lin Hongyuan, my options in dealing with her are very limited. I employed the Killing Bar to have her a.s.sa.s.sinated, but Ye Fei"s sudden appearance ruined my perfectly good plan, forcing me to take a sudden vacation abroad to avoid suspicion. Fortunately, the police are idiots, or I"d be behind bars by now."
"That was you!" Fire Dragon was shocked.
A while ago, the shooting incident at the Ya Lai Group had been the talk of the city. It was even said that the central government had sent a special unit to investigate. Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt was Su Zongheng all along!
"This man... is really cruel and ruthless." Fire Dragon glanced at Su Zongheng, thinking he was like a sinister, unscrupulous jackal who didn"t give half a d.a.m.n about the law.
The Yamamotos looked at each other hesitantly. After a long while, Yamamoto Xiongcai said, "Since you"ve told me this secret, I take it you trust me. I cannot disappoint this trust, so I will try my best to help you. Since we"re all here, I a.s.sume you"ve already thought of a plan. So, what should we do next?"
Su Zongheng grinned widely, showing his teeth. "We"ll kill Ye Fei!"
"I"ve dealt with Ye Fei before. I"m sure he"s ex-military or something like that. He"s an excellent fighter and extremely perceptive, so if we want to kill him, it won"t be easy," Fire Dragon said.
"Well, I have a way to ruin him and make all his allies desert him, one by one. Then I will get even with Lin Qingwan..." Su Zongheng chuckled, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
The name on the screen - Liu Manman.
......
While Lin Qingwan and Chu Mo were at the university director"s office, Ye Fei was on his way back to watch Liu Manman.
Because of a traffic jam, it was only an hour later when he reached Purple Apartments, pushed open the door, and saw Liu Manman sitting on the sofa in her purple pajamas, watching TV with a big bucket of ice cream in her lap and laughing hysterically at every joke in the show.
Ye Fei went over and smiled at her. "Don"t models have to stay in shape? Why are you eating so much ice-cream?"
Liu Manman glanced at him. "None of your business what I eat. Let me take care of myself." Her att.i.tude was much better than the last few days.
Of course, this was because she did not know her boyfriend had been beaten up by Ye Fei and fled abroad. Otherwise, she would be clawing his eyes out.
Ye Fei sat beside her and deliberately put his arm over her shoulders. "Aren"t you my girlfriend?"
"Bah, who"s your girlfriend!" Liu Manman pushed his hand away and stood up. "I"m in a good mood today and I don"t want to fight you. I"m going to take a bath. Peek and you"re dead!"
After that, Liu Manman twisted her waist and walked into the bathroom.
"I wouldn"t look even if you wanted me to."
Ye Fei grabbed a bag of potato chips from the coffee table and sat on the couch for a while. When he ran out of chips, he turned off the TV and took out his throwing knife, muttering to himself, "Grandpa, where are you? When can I become a real warrior? I really want to know the secret of this throwing knife."
