Having managed to get rid of the old lady, Song Yuwei left the table.
The old lady went to a very remote, abandoned, unfinished building. As soon as she entered, she heard a burly man ask her a question.
"Judging from your appearance, the plan must have failed. I originally intended for you to do this, while I would pay for your parents' medical treatment."
But I never expected you to be so useless. You couldn't even complete the tiny task I gave you. I only asked you to kidnap Song Yuwei, but you couldn't bring her here no matter what method you used, whether it was deception or something else. So what am I supposed to say about you?
The old lady was wearing a wig just now, but she has taken it off now.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let you down, nor should I have let you down. But that Song Yuwei is just too cunning; it's not something we humans can easily trick into coming here."
If we didn't use the method of keeping faith to bring her here, we probably wouldn't be able to get close to her at all. Moreover, she seems to know kung fu. She looks like someone who has practiced it. She just touched me with her finger and I felt excruciating pain. She must have learned some strange witchcraft. Otherwise, how could she be so powerful?
And I've already tried my best. I've been a con artist for so many years, scamming so many people. My profession is that of a con artist. I might encounter some situations, but there's no one I haven't managed to fool, especially young girls like her. I can fool them every time, but this Song Yuwei is too cunning.
She's completely beyond my capabilities, no matter what method I use or what I say, she refuses to come with me. I can't just push her around in the street, especially since she knows some weird kung fu that made me feel like I'd been stabbed.
The man stood up from the expensive black leather sofa. "Do you think I'd believe what you're saying? She's just a weak woman who came to you. It makes her sound like she's stronger than anyone else. If that's true, why didn't she become a martial arts instructor, but instead became the president of an entertainment company?"
Besides, she grew up in such difficult circumstances, how could anyone have sent her to learn kung fu? You must be lying, or she has some unspeakable secret. No matter what method you use, you must bring her to me, otherwise I will not let you off the hook.
Don't forget, your parents are in the hospital right now. If I hadn't paid for their continued treatment, they probably would have been kicked out long ago. With them in this state, do you still have the mind to think about anything else? I advise you to be pragmatic and not be too arrogant or naive.
Or you might have some ulterior motives, otherwise I might make your parents pay with their lives. If you behave and don't do anything outrageous, I can let them off the hook, but it depends on whether you're willing. If you are, we can talk things over, but if you're not, we'll have to do some outrageous things.
This is the last thing I want to happen, and you probably know me pretty well, so I hope you can get this done as soon as possible.
But at this moment, the woman who had just been with the old lady from Banyan City suddenly burst into tears. "I really don't know what to do. I beg you, can you think of a way for me? That girl is not as easy as I thought. I said a lot of things, but she doesn't believe me."
Moreover, she might be wary of my true identity, or perhaps she already knew something, because I am such an ordinary old lady, why would she be so wary of me?
If that's the case, then I'm not a particularly good person. In her mind, I might be extremely malicious. If that's the case, I wouldn't be able to get close to her at all, let alone deceive her.
Because a person only trusts themselves, and if someone is very wary of me from the beginning, they will never trust me. So I hope you won't make things difficult for me. If you really have no other choice, you can ask other people, such as your other subordinates, to do this.
Besides, your subordinates might perform even better than me, so why don't you take their place? Forcing me to do it will only make things worse, and who knows what she might do next? She kept threatening to call the police to scare me, but of course, I didn't believe her.
But every time she talks about it, I feel incredibly scared, you know? If I get arrested, my parents will be left without anyone to care for them, and I really don't know what I'll face if I get arrested. I've heard many people say that I'm involved in all sorts of scams, but I've hidden it very well all these years.
The reason you found out was because I accidentally let the news slip; otherwise, I could have kept it hidden my whole life. But now, if she really calls the police, they might investigate and find out what I did before. They could lock me up there, and I might never get out.
Think about it, what would happen to my parents if that were the case? They are already over fifty years old, their hair is gray, they are very old, and their health is so bad. If I'm not by their side, they will have an even harder time.
They might leave this world in the next few years, and I won't be by their side. I'll only feel guilty. Can you really bear to see this happen? I know you don't have any feelings for me, and you don't even know me well, but you are still a living, breathing person, a person with flesh and blood.
So I want to ask you, if it were you, your parents? They were on the verge of death in the hospital, seemingly about to leave this world, and then you suddenly faced this danger. How desperate would you feel? This is something that most people couldn't bear!
So I hope you can think carefully. If you can replace me, then you must replace me with someone else. Someone else might do a much better job than me, and there won't be as much trouble.
"I've already tried it for you once, and I've told you that Song Yuwei is a very guarded person, not easily fooled. That's the value I'm offering you."
