"Oh, I see."
After listening to Xu Song's words, Ye Tian nodded thoughtfully.
"Are you sure he'll let you go after he takes the money? Or is he just trying to trick you out of your money?"
This is a point that is relatively easy to question.
After all, the assassin only verbally agreed to let you go.
But once you actually receive the money, who can say for sure?
You shouldn't have the heart to harm others, but you can't be without the heart to guard against others!
Moreover, many of these assassins have little credibility. After all, once you're an assassin, who cares about those things?
As long as you can get the money, isn't that enough?
This wasn't too different from what Lu Fan had imagined.
Xu Song must have reached some kind of agreement with the assassin to survive.
Otherwise, how could he possibly have survived an assassin on his own?
Ten of them probably wouldn't be enough to kill.
It's not that Lu Fan looks down on Xu Song; it's just that it could be any ordinary person.
They definitely wouldn't be able to fight against an assassin, would they?
One is an ordinary person, the other is an assassin; one operates in the open, the other in the shadows.
How could they possibly escape?
"Well... I'm not really sure either, but I've already agreed to it, and I've acted like I trust him completely, just in case he gets suspicious and tries to do something to me."
Xu Song sighed and continued, "But he said he's another assassin, so I don't think the chances of him letting me go are high, besides..."
"Besides, I'm reluctant to give him all my money. What difference would that make if I were dead? So I came up with this solution."
Xu Song directly shared all his thoughts.
Because he did not regard Lu Fan as his enemy.
After all, if Lu Fan wanted to kill him, it would probably be even easier than doing that.
He held her most crucial weakness in his hands.
However, Xu Song wasn't entirely sure, otherwise he wouldn't have been in such a hurry to go abroad.
The fear was that if things were exposed, Lu Fan would take matters into his own hands, and that would definitely be the end of them.
But who could have imagined that so many things would happen in such a short time?
"Ha ha……"
After listening, Lu Fan roughly understood what was going on.
Simply put, Xu Song was reluctant to part with his money, but he was also afraid of dying.
After a pause, Lu Fan continued, "But there's nothing I can do to help you with this. You're being chased by assassins right now, what can I do?"
"Could it be that I can protect you?"
What a joke! Although Lu Fan now has some ideas on how to deal with Xu Bing.
But that doesn't mean he's willing to provoke an assassin.
That's a ticking time bomb, if we find him.
You never know when you and your family might suffer.
Lu Fan didn't want to encounter that kind of thing; all he wanted now was a peaceful and stable life.
He'll be going home to be with his wife soon.
It is not advisable to cause any further complications at this time.
"It's not so much about protecting me, but I do need protection right now. It's just that ordinary people really have no way to deal with assassins."
Xu Song said with a serious expression:
"But I can think of other ways, right? For example, I actually want to report it to the supervisory bureau. I guess only they can guarantee my safety."
"Looking across the entire Great Xia, it's estimated that only the power of the government can make these assassins afraid."
"But I dare not alert them now. Let alone reporting them to the supervisory bureau, I have to be careful even if I go out to play on my phone."
"I was worried that the killer would think I would do something unsafe for him and would just kill me."
"None of these are impossible. I still need to think about my own safety first, and then I'll think of other solutions after I can ensure my own safety."
Xu Song took a sip of water.
He continued, "That's why I'm asking you to help me report it."
"After all, I don't have anyone I can trust in Daxia right now. If I had to say who, it would only be you. After all, if you wanted to run me over, it would be easy. You still have leverage over me."
Xu Song's tone was full of helplessness.
That's true; he used to hang out with a bunch of shady friends.
Not to mention I can't be of any help, if they find out, I'll probably die immediately.
Seeing that Lu Fan did not make a sound, Xu Song continued to speak.
"Although we don't really have a close relationship, we've worked together before, and what we're doing now can achieve mutual benefit."
"I think we can still work together again."
If Xu Song hadn't been desperate and had no other choice, he wouldn't have sought out Lu Fan again.
He wished the two of them would have no contact at all immediately.
Lu Fan on the other end of the phone nodded, having fully understood Xu Song's intentions.
To be honest, he is completely powerless to do anything about it right now.
And I am the only one who can break the deadlock.
However, Lu Fan didn't have any hobbies of helping others, especially not someone like Xu Song.
Fortunately, as long as I help him, I can also profit.
To completely eliminate Xu Bing, this opponent.
As for Xu Song, he has never had any great ambitions.
All he could think about was having enough money to live on and how to enjoy a life of leisure.
Such a person was not a match for Lu Fan, so Lu Fan never considered Xu Song as an opponent.
Even so, Lu Fan had no intention of letting Xu Song go.
One should be more efficient and decisive in doing things.
Once this is done, let's deal with Xu Song as well.
However, Lu Fan only kept these thoughts to himself.
On the surface, he still pretended to be very friendly and said in a nonchalant manner:
"Hmm, I think your idea is actually not bad."
Lu Fan's lips curled slightly: "But I feel that my benefits this time are less than my costs. After all, I'm going to help you report this. If the assassin finds out, I'll be in serious trouble."
"But the only result of the return trip was that Xu Bing went in, sigh..."
What Lu Fan said was actually untrue, since if he were to report it...
The assassin and Xu Bing will definitely face imprisonment; whether they will be sentenced to death is unknown.
Anyway, I'll never get out of here in this lifetime.
What risks could he possibly face?
Saying this was purely instinctive, a businessman's instinct.
In order to gain greater benefits for himself, but if you think about it carefully, looking at Xu Song...
It seems like there's no benefit to be gained at all.
After all, this guy is completely useless now, he has no value whatsoever.
"This... is it all about helping each other?"
Xu Song chuckled awkwardly: "Besides, if I hadn't helped you back then, you wouldn't have been able to take over Bulgari so quickly."
Xu Song was also going to great lengths to win favor.
The goal was to get Lu Fan to agree.
