Once the richest man?
I did think that the former richest man would come after me.
But to my surprise, less than a day later, I received a phone call.
I glanced at Su Mingyang and Jin Ye, who had been woken up by the phone call next to me.
He gestured for them to be quiet and mouthed the words.
"The phone call from the former richest man."
Upon hearing Zeng, the richest man, call, the two of them gathered around.
I turned on the loudspeaker.
"Hello! Mr. Zeng, have you dialed the wrong number?"
I asked, feigning ignorance.
"hehe."
Zeng Yonghua chuckled softly on the other end of the phone: "Chen Yan, 26 years old, his father mysteriously disappeared when he was born, his mother died when he was seven, his grandfather Chen Bazhong passed away when he was 21, and then you became a mortician at Qinglongshan Funeral Home..."
I never expected that he would investigate my background so thoroughly in such a short time.
Since the other party had laid their cards on the table, I stopped beating around the bush and asked directly.
What do you want to do?
"Chen Yan, give me back my things, and we'll call it even."
return?
How can I possibly return it?
Although I have no use for Bai Su's head now, I can't give it back to him.
Only by finding fault with Zeng, the richest man, can we have a chance to survive.
Once I return Bai Su's head to him, I believe that within two days, the assassins he sent will be at my bedside.
"Richest man Zeng, I don't know what you're talking about." I tried to evade the question.
It was obvious that my words had angered Zeng Yonghua.
I could feel his anger even through the phone.
"Chen Yan, don't be ungrateful. This is your last chance. Give me back my daughter's head, or you'll be wanted by the police!"
They even threatened me.
I'm like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water now, I just chuckled.
"Richest man Zeng, I really don't know what you're talking about. Shouldn't your daughter's head be attached to her neck?"
Just like Jin said, they didn't see us cut off Bai Su's head.
At the time, we covered our faces with cloth, leaving only our eyes showing, and we just denied it to the death.
The former richest man didn't say anything, and then slammed the phone down.
"Damn it, it's only because that little brat hung up the phone quickly, otherwise I would have cursed him out."
Su Mingyang said arrogantly.
Without saying a word, I dialed the number and handed it to him.
"What...what are you doing?"
Su Mingyang was stunned.
"Didn't you want to yell at me? I'll call you back for you."
"Damn it..."
Su Mingyang quickly hung up the phone and didn't dare to say a word.
They both overheard my phone call with Zeng, the richest man in China.
I asked them, now that they've come after us, are they still going to return Bai Su's head?
"Give it back what? Let him come and get it if he dares."
After a moment of contemplation, Jin said, "My opinion is not to return it for now. With Bai Su's head in our hands, he will still be somewhat wary. Last time, we were just conducting an investigation, and he sent people to vandalize the place."
"Now that we've torn Bai Su to pieces, is he really going to let us go so easily?"
Jin Ye's idea coincided with my own.
Since we won't return Bai Su's head, let's put this matter aside for now.
I told Jinye and the others that I would set off for Ruiwei Village right now.
My original plan was to knock Su Mingyang unconscious and send him back.
But this phone call from the former richest man has changed my mind.
Sending him back now would be like sending a lamb to the slaughter.
Given Luo Tianhe's current situation, even Master Jin alone cannot handle it.
Jin told me not to worry, he would find someone to help take care of Su Mingyang's mother.
I didn't take any luggage, just some money and set off.
When I arrived at the airport, I checked in my luggage.
All three of us have been infected with a Gu poison, and the secondary Gu is currently in the small bamboo tube I'm holding.
As instructed by Master Jin, he needed to be fed fresh blood every day to prevent the Gu Master from knowing that Luo Tianhe's Gu poison had been forced out.
This thing is considered an "alternative pet" by other people, and it can't be taken directly on the plane.
While I was checking in my luggage, Su Mingyang called.
"Old Chen, something bad has happened! Don't take the plane, we're wanted by the police."
Are you wanted?
My heart skipped a beat, and I told him not to rush and to speak slowly.
"The former richest man sent me a message on my phone saying that the police had issued an arrest warrant and that if we returned his daughter's head, he would have it removed."
I asked him to send me the message that Zeng, the richest man in China, had sent him.
A short while later, Su Mingyang sent me a WeChat message.
I glanced at the contents above; it was roughly about a murder case at the villa, how many people had died, and how the real culprit had been identified, etc.
The wanted poster also included a video screenshot of me, Luo Tianhe, and Jin Ye entering the villa.
And an A-level bounty on the three of us.
I called Su Mingyang and told him to ignore it and pretend it never happened, as I was about to board the plane.
"Holy crap, buddy, are you that brave? You're a wanted criminal!"
As soon as he heard that I was about to board the plane, Su Mingyang shouted very loudly, which made my ears hurt a little.
I held the phone away from my ear and said that the arrest warrant had never been issued; it was a forgery he made to scare us.
Even if we take a step back and assume that an arrest warrant has already been issued.
Even if we return Bai Su's head to Zeng, the richest man, he still can't withdraw the arrest warrant; he doesn't have that kind of power.
