"Since the day before yesterday, I've helped you kill a total of seventeen targets. Do you really think you can use at will?"
"Hey, how can you say it's helping ? We're actually partners," the Wolf King said with a wily smile.
"It's shaless of you to say that. You've given us all the hard tasks, while Lone Wolf just takes the easy ones," said Han Shengjun, a bit unable to tolerate it. This old man really has no sha.
If it weren't for holding that bottle of '82 Lafite that the old man gave him, Han probably would have already fallen out with him.
Oh, right, Xiaofan and the other four live here, and the Wolf King treats them well. Han Shengjun heard Xiaofan say that the Wolf King has '82 Lafite in his little liquor stash and wanted to try it. So, without a second thought, the Wolf King sent soone to deliver a bottle.
"Wolf King, this is the last ti. Originally, I planned to have results within five days of killing Koff, but you're a bit slow now," Xiaofan replied indifferently, agreeing to the Wolf King's request.
"Hey, it's not like I don't want to, it's just that the Cross Society's people are scattered. Plus, the Federation Bureau keeps pressuring us, so..."
"That's because you're not ruthless enough," Xiaofan said coldly again.
This approach is not what a leader would do. Now the Lone Wolf has manpower and weapons, and the Cross Society is scattered and can't form a force. What about the Federation Bureau? Would they dare to show up? They secretly collaborate with the Cross Society, if they dare to openly maintain them, wouldn't that be announcing their shady deals to the world?
Even though the whole world knows it, M Country certainly won't let other countries catch on, right?
M Country is really sothing, they still don't plan to give up on the Cross Society. However, aside from Koff, Xiaofan has dealt with all the other high-profile figures, so who is capable of managing this scattered lot?
"Ruthless? We've almost driven them to the brink, isn't that ruthless enough?" the Wolf King asked doubtfully.
"They haven't reached the brink yet," Xiaofan said flatly, his eyes on the bottle of '82 Lafite in Han Shengjun's hand, lost in thought.
"You an total suppression? Wouldn't that provoke their retaliation?" the Wolf King asked worriedly.
"Hesitating like this, it might take a month without results. If you press harder, the Federation Bureau will definitely co looking for you."
"Ah, I see, I understand now. Well, I won't bother you anymore."
With a simple sentence from Xiaofan, enlightennt dawned on the Wolf King. M Country hasn't abandoned the Cross Society because they still see benefits to be gained. With the Federation Bureau's backing, if Lone Wolf continues to move slowly, it will definitely take more ti. That might not be a bad thing, but Xiaofan... doesn't seem to have that much patience.
After the Wolf King left, Xiaofan's eyes remained on the bottle of '82 Lafite, still lost in thought.
"Want a drink?" Han Shengjun waved the half-full bottle of wine in his hand and asked.
"Hmm? No, thank you. You guys rest here for a bit. I'll go handle those two people in the photo first," Xiaofan said slowly, picking up the photo and preparing to leave.
The Wolf King had just co seeking help, and Xiaofan was about to head out now. But it's dayti, midday to be precise. Taking action in broad daylight is not Xiaofan's usual style.
Shen Zuimo suddenly ca over to Xiaofan and took the photo from his hand.
"You stay and get so rest, we'll go."
"Zuimo." Xiaofan looked at Shen Zuimo, puzzled.
"You're hosick, aren't you?"
Shen Zuimo's question caused Han Shengjun, who was sipping wine, and the others to pause.
Hosick? So that's it... That's why Xiaofan spoke so urgently with the Wolf King earlier, and why he wants to hurry and wrap things up here, to go ho.
Since returning from the isolated island, he hasn't had the chance to step back on ho soil. Now, seeing the opportunity to return, Lone Wolf's slow progress must be causing him great anxiety.
"Zuimo... I..."
"I know, you want to see Liu Siyan and the others," Shen Zuimo said, not out of jealousy like he had with Aili before, but with a gentle look in his eyes.
Shen Zuimo knows that Xiaofan not only can't let go of himself but also a lot of other things.
He is a man of deep emotions and righteousness. The fact that he went through such exaggerated actions for him already proves his feelings, and for that, Shen Zuimo is very satisfied.
They had an agreent: as long as he could co back alive, everything would be forgiven.
His heart bears many ties; Liu Siyan was his first love, unforgettable for a man. That kind of pure and deep yearning.
Chen ngying, a woman who gives silently, expecting nothing in return, her gentle and considerate nature, her affectionate gaze, always makes one cherish her.
And then there's Chen i'Er, who is bold and blunt, though sowhat temperantal, she is wholly dedicated to Xiaofan.
And Ren Ling, a girl who doesn't speak much, but when she does, it's in an adorable manner. Even though she's a year older than Xiaofan, she seems like she'll never grow up.
Faced with such emotional ties, Shen Zuimo understands that Xiaofan can't let go. After all this ti, it's ti to go back and see them.
"I'll go with you," whispered Leng Yue as she stood up.
"Alright, let's go. You take a rest first; these days have been exhausting. Han Shengjun, could you be our driver?"
"Huh? I have to go too? I've been drinking, you know? Don't drink and drive," Han Shengjun said, but he cheerfully put down the Lafite and stood up.
"With your drinking capacity, you need more practice. Otherwise, at your wedding with Xiaofan's sister, you'll definitely get drunk," Shen Zuimo teased before turning and walking out.
Watching the three of them walk out, Xiaofan couldn't help but smile. Zuimo has really changed a lot.
Picking up the wine on the table, Xiaofan poured himself a full glass.
Forget it, a little drink and a nap will do. It's been too tense lately. Being understood by soone you love is indeed a very happy thing.
"Knock knock knock."
"Who's there?"
Shen Zuimo and the others had just left when there was a knock on the door again.
"It's ." With the sound of the voice, the door was pushed open imdiately, as if there was no intention of waiting for permission to enter.
"Aili?" Xiaofan murmured upon seeing who it was. His gaze subconsciously lingered on the blonde beauty.
Even in her own ho, she doesn't need to dress so seductively, does she?
