Chapter 1381: Strike First
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“So, we might as well strike first and catch them off guard when they think you are worried,” Lu Xingzhi said, concerned.
Lu Xingzhi’s expression was solemn when he spoke. His facial features were cold and hard, and when he wore a serious expression, it gave off a kind of pressure. Brother Ding felt that Gu Changshu was right; it was an extremely urgent matter.
Brother Ding immediately began to think about Gu Changshu’s words.
Lu Xingzhi knew when to speak and when not to talk too much, so he stood at the side and quietly watched Brother Ding, who was thinking about something.
It just so happened that there was such a coincidence in that world. Brother Ding was still thinking about the feasibility of Gu Changshu’s words when Sister Wen called him.
That was the first time Sister Wen had called Brother Ding after leaving Shu City. When Brother Ding saw Sister Wen’s phone number, he relaxed a little. Perhaps Sister Wen would not betray him since she called him. However, when he heard what Sister Wen said, Brother Ding’s mood changed again.
“You and Yunfang are not planning to return to my side, right?” Brother Ding gritted his teeth and asked that question.
“Brother Ding, I’m also very anxious that we haven’t found the child. I’ve come here personally to look for him, but the child is missing. The child disappeared a few years ago. It’s been so long. Where else can we find him?” Sister Wen was more anxious than anyone else when they could not find the child.
It was a completely different matter if she could not find him or if she was hiding him. Since the child could not be found, it meant that she had lost a bargaining chip that could threaten Brother Ding.
“Is that so?” Brother Ding could not believe it, no matter how anxious and guilty Sister Wen sounded on the phone. “I think you and Yunfang just don’t want to return to my side.”
“Brother Ding…” Sister Wen kept shouting on the phone, but all she heard was a beep after that. Brother Ding had already hung up on her.
“D*mn it! You heartless woman! I’ve taken care of you two for so many years, and now you’re betraying me because of a small matter!” Brother Ding smashed the phone on the table. The phone bounced with a bang and fell to the ground. The back cover separated from the phone.
Lu Xingzhi bent down to pick up the things on the ground. The moment he lowered his face, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.
Brother Ding was furious. It seemed like things went more smoothly than he thought.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Xingzhi picked up the phone and put it back on the table. Then, he asked cautiously.
“The two women are betraying me! They told me that they couldn’t find the child. I think she hid him to threaten me!” Brother Ding snorted, then he looked at Gu Changshu and said, “Brother Jing will be here tomorrow. Go and pack your things. I’ll send someone to send you out later.”
Lu Xingzhi nodded and turned to walk out of the door. However, when he was already at the door, he suddenly turned around.
He thought for a moment and said, “Brother Ding, I have a request, and I hope you will agree to it.”
