To recover his memory and life, Xu Keke enters various eras to start a counterattack journey to demand justice for the resentful side characters of era novels.
Rehabilitation is non-existent,...
Xu Keke nodded thoughtfully, agreeing with her. "Do you know where they're planning to make their move in a couple of days?"
Li Shirong was a little embarrassed. "It's not good to ask about this. Asking too many details will arouse suspicion. Besides, if the master has given instructions about taking action, he usually only tells us before taking action, not in advance."
"Can you confirm who the master is?" Xu Keke asked this question knowing the answer already, mainly to see if Li Shirong could come out and identify him.
Li Shirong hesitated, "Well, you saw me the other day, didn't you? I..."
Fearing that Xu Keke would be unhappy, Li Shirong spoke somewhat hastily afterward.
“This person can’t be revealed from here. First, there are rules in this kind of business: even if you lose your life, you can’t reveal who the boss is unless he gives the go-ahead. Otherwise, you can forget about working in the underworld. Second, this would be considered betraying my fellow gang members, and no matter the reason, Master He won’t tolerate it anymore. Moreover, Master Lin and Master He have a very close relationship. If this isn’t done well, it’s not a big deal if I lose my life, but I’m afraid they’ll turn around and deny everything, and then you’ll be implicated too.”
No wonder he later became a tycoon in Shanghai; he understood what I meant with just a few words. He could figure out all the intricacies of the situation so quickly. This man is truly extraordinary.
Xu Keke smiled faintly, "Don't worry, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to confirm with you who it is."
Li Shirong wiped the sweat from his brow. Fortunately, Miss Zhou didn't have any other ideas; otherwise, he would have had a really hard time making a choice.
"Alright, I won't keep you any longer. I won't thank you enough; we'll get to know each other better in the future."
Li Shirong's eyes lit up. His purpose in coming to deliver the message was to receive these words from Xu Keke in the future. If he could, then his trip today would not have been in vain.
"Then I'll head back now. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things over there and let you know if there's any further news."
Li Shirong didn't linger. After looking around and finding nothing suspicious, he picked up his hat from the ground, bowed to Xu Keke, and hurried away.
