"Be mindful of the impact," Su Ruowei said softly, her pretty face flushed.
Lin Fan immediately straightened up and said with a smile, "Okay, President Su, shall we go?"
On his way home, Lin Fan noticed that someone was following him, but he didn't mention it because he was worried that Su Ruowei would be scared.
As she approached the residential area, Su Ruowei received a phone call from Shen Yunlan.
"Daughter, get ready and come out to eat with Mom."
Su Ruowei was somewhat taken aback. Although it was not appropriate for a daughter to talk about her mother, Shen Yunlan's past behavior had been so stingy that it was a miracle that she was treating her to a meal.
"Mom, are you sure you want to eat out?" Su Ruowei asked doubtfully.
"Let's go out to eat! Su Yulin is treating our whole family to dinner, so get ready and dress up nicely." On the phone, Shen Yunlan raised her voice and continued, "Don't bring Lin Fan!"
"Why didn't you bring Lin Fan?" Su Ruowei questioned.
"Bringing him along will only embarrass us!"
Before Su Ruowei could answer, Lin Fan whispered to her:
"Go eat, and remember to tell me the location of the restaurant so I can pick you up."
Lin Fan heard it all clearly; Shen Yunlan's voice was practically projected onto a loudspeaker.
"Aren't you going?" Su Ruowei asked, covering her phone.
"I'm not going. I have some things to do." Lin Fan said, glancing at the rearview mirror. The person following him was still there, about ten meters away.
"Okay," Su Ruowei said to Lin Fan, then added into her phone, "I know, Mom, I'll be right back."
"That's right, that's my good daughter!"
Shen Yunlan's laughter came from the other end of the phone, and then Su Ruowei hung up.
After Su Yulin called Shen Yunlan to invite her to dinner, Shen Yunlan readily agreed. She assumed that Su Yulin was trying to curry favor with her family, since Su Ruowei had become the project manager for the cooperation with Shancheng Group.
At the same time, Su Yulin repeatedly emphasized not to bring Lin Fan, which was exactly what Shen Yunlan wanted. After all, in her eyes, the root of all the ridicule was Lin Fan.
Upon arriving at the residential complex, Lin Fan watched Su Ruowei go upstairs and then took the initiative to find the person who had been following him.
Lin Fan stood by the roadside, and the car following him stopped in front of him. After the car stopped, three burly men got out and rushed straight towards Lin Fan.
Lin Fan remained calm, cracking his neck as if preparing to make a move.
"You're Lin Fan? You've got some nerve, coming here to die." The leader shouted, then tossed Lin Fan a bottle of medicine and continued:
"Drink this, and your death won't be too painful, saving us the trouble of feeding you!"
Lin Fan took the medicine bottle and looked at the words on it. It was a poison that caused death indistinguishable from sudden death. It was a good item for assassination in the black market.
If someone dies from taking this medicine, no investigation can find out the cause; all that can be found is that the person died from an illness.
"Wow, this medicine is amazing! It can't even determine the cause of death?" Lin Fan said, looking at the medicine bottle.
"Of course," the leading man said proudly, but before he could finish speaking, Lin Fan had already arrived in front of him.
"You try it first, and I'll drink it if you like it." Lin Fan sneered and used his hand to forcefully seal the mouth of the leading man.
The man tried to break free but couldn't; Lin Fan held his face tightly.
The leading man felt a liquid in his mouth, but he didn't know when it had been injected. His eyes darted around in a panic, and when they finally landed on Lin Fan's hand, he was completely devastated.
The medicine bottle in Lin Fan's hand was empty!
The other two were terrified by the scene and broke out in a cold sweat. Who was this person? Why did their superiors send their group to face him?
Lin Fan felt the man in his arms keep falling. He glanced at him and saw that the man's eyes had rolled back, so he let go of him.
The moment his hand left his grasp, the leading man collapsed to the ground and never got up again.
"The medicine works pretty quickly, doesn't it?" Lin Fan sneered.
When the other two saw their team leader fall to the ground, they were so frightened that they turned and ran. But the moment they took a step, a large hand appeared on their shoulders at the same time.
"Don't run away, I still have something to ask you two." Lin Fan grabbed one of their shoulders with each hand.
"Ask, ask what?" the man on the left said, while the man on the right was already terrified.
"Where are you from?" Lin Fan asked, his face as cold as ice.
"The underground boxing ring."
Lin Fan frowned: "It's that underground boxing ring again. Why does it always haunt us?"
"Have you offended someone?" the man on the left asked.
Lin Fan took a deep breath and began to think. He had only been thinking for a few seconds when he saw Su Ruowei and her family coming downstairs. Shen Yunlan and Su Zhengwu were chatting and laughing, while Su Ruowei followed behind, seemingly preoccupied.
"Get in the car!" Lin Fan threw the two people into the car with one hand each, slammed the door shut, and then sat in the driver's seat himself.
Lin Fan decided to stop wasting his time and go straight to the underground boxing ring to wipe it out!
"Where is the underground boxing ring?" Lin Fan asked.
The two men were startled at the same time, and stammered, "You, you're going to the underground boxing ring?"
"That's right, tell me where it is!" Lin Fan snapped.
"You are indeed very strong, but I'm afraid you're no match for me," the man on the right muttered to himself.
The man on the left glared fiercely at the man on the right, as if to say, "How dare you say that? You're asking for trouble!"
The man on the right, seeing the look in the man's eyes, immediately cowered and shrank back into the corner.
The man on the left climbed into the passenger seat from the back and said with a sly grin, "I'll show you the way."
Seeing this, Lin Fan shook his head. The intention was too obvious. They wanted to lure me to the underground boxing ring and then find someone to deal with me. But he was probably going to be disappointed.
"Lead the way!" Lin Fan said calmly, casually picking up his sunglasses from the car and putting them on, afraid that Su Ruowei would recognize him.
Led by the man, Lin Fan drove to a bar.
The bar's shutters hadn't been raised yet; it seemed it was still early and not yet time to open.
Lin Fan got out of the car and looked at the roller shutter door. Two men also got out of the car.
"Is the underground boxing ring here?" Lin Fan asked, pointing to the roller shutter door.
“That’s right.” The man on the left said to Lin Fan, then walked to the roller shutter door, knocked hard, and shouted loudly:
"The eagle soars against the wind, the roc flies over the calm sea!"
"Is this your secret signal to open the door?" Lin Fan asked.
The man on the left did not answer. After a moment, he watched as the roller shutter slowly rose, and four or five burly men emerged from the darkness. All the men were shirtless and had dragon and phoenix tattoos on their bodies, and they were clearly not good people.
Upon closer inspection, the burly man was also holding a knife and a gun!
Lin Fan realized that the person was indeed shouting a code, but it wasn't a code to open the door; it was a code to use when in trouble.
The man on the left reacted quickly, running behind the burly man who had just emerged, and pointed at Lin Fan, shouting:
"That's him! He killed our squad leader! Brothers, kill him!"
