A moment after hearing this, a voice came from inside, followed by a person dressed in casual clothes.

He was decked out in designer brands from head to toe, with a gold necklace and a gold watch—a typical nouveau riche.

"Oh, who do we have here? It's you. What brings you here today? Are you here to apologize?"

"You want me to pull some strings to give you a chance?"

Seeing that Lu Fan remained silent, Zhang Tiansha became even more arrogant. This was his territory, and the descendants behind him were not just for show.

Although they work for him, this young master is terrifying behind the scenes, and there are quite a few people who would risk their lives for him. The wages here are much higher than those outside.

Most people remember this favor, and the fact that they didn't leave him when he faced a crisis is the best proof of that.

"Don't worry, as long as you give me Jiang Manyue, I will definitely help you get things straightened out."

Dragons have scales that cannot be touched and will surely die. When Zhang Fan saw this scene, he was completely dumbfounded. He knew Lu Fan's strength very well.

I've come here to discuss something with the other party.

On the contrary, the other party's careless manner inevitably aroused his pity.

Thinking to himself that it wouldn't be long before the other party would kneel down and beg for mercy, looking limp on the ground, he couldn't help but feel a little desolate.

This was the first time he had ever seen himself courting death!

Before the other party could speak again, Lu Fan rushed forward and punched him to the ground, then slowly picked him up with one hand.

Seeing this, the others around him quickly gripped their weapons, but dared not step forward. Lu Fan's bodyguards also spread out to surround him.

"Weren't you so arrogant just now? How come you're so defeated now!"

Lu Fan's eyes radiated a chilling aura, and wherever his gaze fell, Zhang Tiansha's legs trembled uncontrollably. He kept looking around, but Lu Fan kept staring at him intently.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Tiansha was completely stunned.

"Brother, what do you want to do? Just tell me what you need. Don't worry, I'll take care of it properly for you."

He had originally thought he had a hundred or so people backing him up, but now the lightning speed made him realize that he was no match for Lu Fan.

A true man can bend and stretch; he didn't believe Lu Fan would keep harping on him. Lu Fan looked at the other man and recalled what he had said before, vaguely feeling that this guy might know something about it.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Fan slowly began to inquire after receiving two punches to the face.

"Who's behind all this? What's your relationship with him? If you don't explain this clearly, I'm not done with you!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tiansha panicked completely. He watched as Lu Fan truthfully recounted the whole story.

"Brother, I only heard that someone is coming to Nancheng, and that the other party has an extraordinary background. They said they are from Nanshan City. I just want to borrow their power and see if I can trick them into doing some cooperation."

Hearing this, Lu Fan frowned slightly. He hadn't expected to end up with a fraudster whose entire deception was a lie.

This was something he hadn't expected, but he vaguely sensed that this matter was definitely not that simple.

"You're not lying to me, you really have nothing to do with him, you're just using him as a shield? Then how do you explain what happened to my wife!"

If you don't provide a reasonable solution to this, I'm not done with you.

Zhang Tiansha burst into tears. He had only meant to make a joke, but he never expected that such a small joke would provoke such a huge retaliation from Lu Fan.

He also knew that Lu Fan had been very busy lately, and it was only after seeing Jiang Manyue's stunning beauty that he had evil thoughts.

I had only heard about it and seen photos before, but when I saw the real person for the first time, it was on a completely different level.

All these circumstances prevent him from fully realizing just how vast the gap truly is.

"Brother, I'm sorry. I didn't expect this either. I was out of my mind at the time. Just tell me what you want, and I will definitely grant it if I can."

Zhang Tiansha knelt on the ground, scrutinizing Lu Fan from head to toe. He knew very well that an explanation was needed for this matter.

Moreover, he is now at the mercy of others; if Lu Fan were to lay a hand on him, he would be left with no place to bury his body.

"Now that you've brought this up, you can't just let it go so easily, can you? How much of a bargaining chip do you think we need to raise?"

Lu Fan's gaze made Zhang Tiansha feel flustered. There was no way around it; the difference between the two made him realize that he had gotten himself into trouble.

"I see you've been seeking cooperation lately. From now on, if you say one thing, I'll never say another. I can assure you that I'll be on your side in everything that follows."

After he finished speaking, he quickly told the others around him to put down their weapons. Seeing this sincerity, Lu Fan understood that things were not going well at the moment, as he had made too many enemies.

In addition, with about a hundred people surrounding him, if a fight really breaks out, he won't be able to handle the situation.

He came here to try to resolve this matter as much as possible, and now his initial idea has been fulfilled.

"Let me tell you, this isn't over yet. This is just the beginning. Don't let me run into you again, or you're dead!"

After Lu Fan finished speaking, he punched him several more times until he was unconscious, then turned and left.

After he left, the others gathered around, and someone pinched Zhang Tiansha's philtrum to wake him up.

Zhang Tiansha, his face bruised and swollen, stared at the departing vehicle in the distance. This incident was a great humiliation for him.

Especially since he reprimanded himself in front of his underlings, he left unscathed in front of so many people.

"Don't talk about what happened today. As for the Jiang Group, don't think that just because they have some power now, they can do whatever they want."

He vaguely sensed that Lu Fan couldn't spare much power at the moment, otherwise it wouldn't have been just a simple lesson.

Moreover, Jiang Manyue personally approached him about this cooperation, which indirectly indicates that the Jiang Group is currently facing significant trouble.

"Lu Fan, you just wait. This isn't over. When your Jiang Group falls, that's when we'll take your life!"

In the car, Zhang Fan looked at Lu Fan behind him and paused for a long time before expressing his thoughts.

"This time, coming here has somewhat alerted the enemy. Although we knocked him unconscious, someone like him will definitely try to harm you again."

He should have been taken away just now; we absolutely cannot let him go back and seize power again!

Lu Fan, sitting in the back row, didn't say anything, but he knew this.
