"Who I am is not important, but your people are in my hands, and I know everything you're going to do."
He said to Zhang Xinlei with a smile on the other end of the phone.
What do you want?
Zhang Xinlei had a feeling that the other party was up to something, otherwise she could have simply called Lu Fan. After thinking for a moment, she asked him.
"I enjoy dealing with intelligent people, and my condition is..."
Just as Zhang Xinlei had suspected, the person on the other end of the phone was indeed asking them for terms.
I was originally planning to wait a while before bringing it up, but Zhang Xinlei brought it up herself with a smile, stating the conditions she had already prepared.
"I can't make the decision on this matter. I'll go and ask Elder Qu for instructions. I'll make this call if I have any news."
Hearing the conditions proposed by the other party, even the well-informed Zhang Xinlei was speechless, never expecting that the other party would ask for such an exorbitant amount.
This is a big deal, and it's not something an assistant like me can agree to. I can only try to calm them down first.
"Sure, but don't try anything funny."
After listening to Zhang Xinlei's words, the person on the other end of the phone thought for a few seconds without saying a word. He realized that even an assistant wouldn't dare to agree to such a thing, so going to Old Master Qu for a decision was the best course of action.
He agreed, but didn't forget to give Zhang Xinlei a warning.
"Let's wait for news."
After listening to what was being said on the other end, Zhang Xinlei said something and then, seeing that Old Qu had come downstairs, quickly hung up the phone.
"Xiao Zhang, take me to the funeral home right now."
Old Qu walked out of the elevator with a somewhat solemn expression. He saw Zhang Xinlei standing at the door and walked towards it with his cane. When he saw that Zhang Xinlei had seen him, he quickly waved to her and said something.
"good."
Seeing Mr. Qu's sorrowful appearance, Zhang Xinlei did not reveal the contents of the phone call, but helped Mr. Qu into the car.
This time, he wasn't alone; he brought four or five bodyguards with him, fearing that Lu Fan might suddenly make a move.
On the other side, Lu Yi took Lu Fan to the hospital. Fortunately, it was just some superficial injuries, not too serious, and he could be discharged after some rest.
Lu Fan was very weak and lay on the hospital bed, but he still remembered to tell Lu Yi to go and save Jiang Manyue.
Although Lu Fan doesn't like to express his emotions on the surface, he already regards Jiang Manyue as the most important person in his heart.
"Don't worry, brother, I've already thought of a way to save sister-in-law."
Seeing Lu Fan covered in injuries, Lu Yi lowered his head in self-reproach. If it weren't for him, Lu Fan wouldn't be like this, and Jiang Manyue wouldn't have been kidnapped.
Just as she was blaming herself, she saw a message pop up on her phone. After reading the message, her eyes regained their light and she said to Lu Fan.
"What do you want to do? Don't be ridiculous!"
Lying in the hospital bed, Lu Fan looked at Lu Yi and felt that the other was about to do something foolish. He wanted to know what the other had to do.
"Just wait for my news. Xixi, your brother is in your care now."
The usually playful Lu Yi had shed his childishness and, without answering Lu Fan's question, hurriedly walked away.
Just as he stepped out the door, he saw Nangong Qi and Lu Xi arrive. He handed Lu Fan over to the two of them and left the hospital without looking back.
"Brother, are you alright?"
"Lu Fan!"
Lu Xi and Nangong Qi watched Lu Yi leave in a hurry, but without thinking too much, they quickly entered the ward. Seeing Lu Fan lying on the hospital bed, they rushed to the bedside with concern and said...
"Silly girl, cough cough, your brother isn't dead yet!"
Overwhelmed with grief, Lu Xi suddenly buried her head in Lu Fan's stomach. The sudden movement almost made Lu Fan, who was lying down, vomit. He touched Lu Xi's head and said...
"You scared me to death! I thought you were dead!"
Lu Xi looked at Lu Fan, who was still talking, and realized that nothing serious had happened. She quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and lightly punched Lu Fan with her fist, saying in an annoyed tone.
"What are you saying? I'm not going to die so easily!"
After hearing what his sister said, Lu Fan was speechless. What kind of sister would want her brother to die?
"Who beat you up like this?"
When Nangong Qi came in, she found Lu Fan lying on the bed. She thought he was seriously injured and shed tears for him. But when she saw that Lu Fan could still joke, she quickly took the blame, wiped away her tears, and readjusted herself.
Not wanting Lu Fan to notice that she had been crying, she asked him expressionlessly.
"It's nothing, I just accidentally fell down from upstairs."
Lying in the hospital bed, Lu Fan noticed that there was another person in the room. When he saw that it was Nangong Qi, he noticed that her eyes were red. He looked at his sister and then smiled at the two of them.
I didn't tell them the truth because I didn't want them to get involved. If they knew, they would definitely help me get revenge, which is not what I want to see.
"Haha, how can you be so clumsy! You can't even stand steadily on the stairs. When I heard Brother Yi call, I thought something terrible had happened, so Sister Qi and I rushed over."
The naive Lu Xi didn't think much of it. When she heard that Lu Fan had fallen down the stairs, Lu Xi, who was still feeling sad, pointed at Lu Fan and laughed and complained.
Standing there, Nangong Qi noticed the change in Lu Fan's expression; things were definitely not as simple as Lu Fan had said.
"I'm exhausted from running this route. Xixi, could you buy your sister Qi a bottle of water?"
Nangong Qi sat down on the chair on the other side of the hospital bed and spoke to Lu Xi.
