"..."
Yoshida Shun was trembling at this mont and told Xu Fan his own address.
It must have been hard for him, a big boss, to be scared into such a cowardly state; what kind of intimidation had he experienced?
"Alright, I'll be there soon."
Xu Fan cald Yoshida Shun with a few words, then directly hung up the phone.
Listening to Yoshida Shun's tone on the phone, he should not be digging a pit for Xu Fan with that guy.
He had to go and see him once to make sure.
"Hey, where are you going?"
As Xu Fan got up to leave, Asao Mai watched him from the side and quickly asked.
"Yoshida Shun has news, I have to go over there."
"So soon?"
In less than a day, Yoshida Shun had already found the clues Xu Fan needed; this speed was beyond Asao Mai's imagination.
"Hey! Wait for !"
She wanted to ask Xu Fan what exactly was going on, but he was already putting on his shoes and about to leave.
Asao Mai hurriedly chased after him without ti to ask.
Eager to et Yoshida Shun, Xu Fan didn't bother to block her. The two of them went downstairs, hailed a taxi, and headed towards Yoshida Shun's residence.
The taxi sped through the night, and soon, they reached Yoshida Shun's address.
Unlike the kind of low-rent apartnt where Asao Mai lived, Yoshida Shun's place was a standalone villa.
"Hmph, how much money did this guy cheat?"
Staring at the large villa before her, Asao Mai couldn't help but angrily curse.
She knew very well that the money Yoshida Shun used to buy this villa was all swindled from others!
"Alright, put that aside for now; the main issue is more important."
Though Xu Fan shared the sentint, they had no ti to dwell on it.
Outside the villa, there were many guards, almost all of Yoshida Shun's n.
The fact that they were patrolling outside Yoshida Shun's ho clearly showed that what he told Xu Fan wasn't a lie.
"Open the door."
Having dealt with these guys during the day, Xu Fan led Asao Mai to the gate, greeted them, and Yoshida Shun's n opened the villa gate to let them in.
They were led inside the villa by one of Yoshida Shun's n.
Soon, they entered Yoshida Shun's bedroom with the guidance.
They saw Yoshida Shun lying under the covers, shivering.
Seeing Xu Fan's arrival, he couldn't help but shed a few tears.
"B-brother, you're finally here…"
It's unclear what kind of tornt Yoshida Shun endured after Xu Fan left, but now his face looked like it had been beaten to a pulp.
"Brother, you have to stand up for …"
With Xu Fan there, he found the courage to crawl out from under the covers and cried, asking Xu Fan to stand up for him.
His appearance was disgustingly pathetic, Xu Fan rolled his eyes and said, "Alright, getting beat up like this is your own doing."
"You reap what you sow, you know?"
Xu Fan didn't have ti to comfort Yoshida Shun's shattered emotions — the guy wouldn't be in this state if he hadn't done so many bad deeds.
Xu Fan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Alright, now tell everything about the situation again."
The phone conversation was unclear, and Xu Fan worried Yoshida Shun might have missed sothing. He went straight to the point and asked him to recount everything about that guy in detail.
"Wait, Xu Fan."
At this point, Asao Mai interrupted Xu Fan.
"I'll excuse myself from listening, I'll take a look around."
As she looked at Xu Fan, Asao Mai explained her intention.
"..."
Clearly, the villa must have shocked her considerably, and she probably wanted to take a good look around to see how much money Yoshida Shun swindled from others.
With Xu Fan there, Yoshida Shun's n wouldn't dare do anything to Asao Mai, so he waved his hand, letting her roam as she pleased.
After sending Asao Mai away, Xu Fan turned back to Yoshida Shun.
Yoshida Shun's eyes were still following the departing Asao Mai.
"Alright, stop daydreaming, let's get to business."
Thinking Yoshida Shun guessed Asao Mai's intentions, Xu Fan scolded him directly.
"Eh, eh…"
Straightened by Xu Fan's scolding, Yoshida Shun snapped back and agreed, explaining in detail what had happened.
It was almost identical to what he had said on the phone, though there were a few additional details.
Simply put, Yoshida Shun played along and deceived that guy, making him believe that Yoshida Shun would honestly help him do his bidding.
"So, what did he ask you to do?"
Xu Fan was curious about what that guy had entrusted to Yoshida Shun.
He estimated that the matter most likely involved the monk Xuyun's legacy.
"This… this…"
Being questioned, Yoshida Shun started stamring, which made Xu Fan a bit dissatisfied.
"Are you planning to keep secrets for him?"
"No, no, I… I couldn't do that…"
Hearing Xu Fan's cold snort, Yoshida Shun hurriedly explained, waving his hands.
He had already decided to side with Xu Fan and couldn't afford to change sides; otherwise, he'd gain no benefits from either party.
Looking troubled, Yoshida Shun said to Xu Fan, "It's… it's just that the task he gave might have a little sothing to do with you…"
"Hmm?"
Xu Fan raised an eyebrow at Yoshida Shun's explanation.
Previously, Mr. Hua had been threatened by this guy to block Xu Fan's path.
Could it be that this guy already noticed that Mr. Hua's obstacle had been overco by Xu Fan?
"Tell directly what it is."
Xu Fan asked straightforwardly.
Yoshida Shun hesitated and said, "I-it's just that girl earlier, he…he wanted to find her and deliver her to him."
Worried that Xu Fan wouldn't believe him, Yoshida Shun explained as he pulled out a photo given to him by that guy from his pocket.
Taking a look, Xu Fan saw that the person in the photo was indeed Asao Mai.
"This…"
Why was this woman involved in this matter too?
The news Yoshida Shun revealed caught Xu Fan by surprise.
Thinking about it, Xu Fan heard Yoshida Shun explain, "Really, I'm not lying to you. When he handed this photo, I was surprised too, why he wanted to find your girl…"
"You fool!"
Hearing Yoshida Shun's explanation, Xu Fan couldn't help but curse!
Imdiately, he rushed out of the bedroom!
