Chapter 1370: Chapter 1370: Still Missing an Important Link
But she couldn’t be sure, after all, the godfather is a big figure in the drug underworld. The top person in such a drug trafficking group usually wouldn’t show up personally for a transaction, right?
If the godfather really needs to step in, then how enormous and terrifying must the volume of this drug deal be?
Ye Lu, however, didn’t even consider Third Young Master Jun as a possibility, because in her heart, Third Young Master Jun and the godfather were enemies who had already severed ties, and now Third Young Master Jun was still hiding everywhere to avoid being found by the godfather!
...
Third Young Master Jun put down the newspaper, his mind seemingly adrift in thought.
Lie Feng glanced at the newspaper, which featured critical news reports about Ye Lu and the elderly couple of the Jun Family.
"Isn’t Third Young Master planning to visit the Old Madam?"
Third Young Master Jun looked up with a half-smile, half-mockery in his eyes: "A number two figure in drug trafficking who has chosen the point of no return—I think my visiting them would bring them no good. Don’t you think so?"
Lie Feng’s eyes dimmed with agreement.
This is a point of no return, once followed there’s no turning back, and for the sake of loved ones, it’s best to sever all familial ties.
"Besides, grandmother won’t be so easily agitated to the point of falling ill."
Third Young Master Jun wasn’t too worried; first, he didn’t believe the rumors on the newspapers, as Ye Lu wasn’t that kind of person.
It’s probably because they’re concerned about grandfather and grandmother being targeted, so they’re doing this.
Secondly, he still had Gu Yan, as well as his father, Jun Shi. After all the absurd things done in the past, none of which made her fall ill, she wouldn’t get sick so easily.
It must be because they can’t find him and also can’t get any news from Ye Lu, so they’ve faked sickness to be hospitalized as a ploy to lure him out!
However, he truly doesn’t intend to show up before them, to avoid causing them further heartache in the future.
Third Young Master Jun’s face, often given to lighthearted mockery, darkened, and he chuckled with self-derision.
Having chosen this ending, why bring harm to himself or others? Now, the best outcome is to let them go and keep a distance—as if he were already dead. After all, in the end, he will surely die.
His determination has never been this strong, and he must achieve this final goal—to kill the godfather!
A sharp, ghostly light flickered deep in Third Young Master Jun’s eyes.
The current affairs are already on the right track, and no matter what the godfather thinks, it’s impossible for him to guess that he would seek cooperation with his enemy Ling Yan. This is the most critical step in his plan and the key point in deceiving the godfather.
But still, it wasn’t enough. The plan was missing a crucial piece, requiring a pivotal person and the assistance of high technology!
Yet, given his current situation, he is under the godfather’s constant surveillance.
How could he get close to that person? How could he silently obtain that high technology in hand!
Third Young Master Jun couldn’t help feeling anxious.
Success or failure hinges on this one attempt; he cannot fail because he no longer has the chance, nor the time, to start over.
"The godfather called, asking if you have found all those agents?" Lie Feng asked again.
Third Young Master Jun looked down: "Out of the five agents, I have already found four, all of them reliable people. I will send the list to the godfather. Once I find the fifth, we can proceed with the distribution of goods, silently making the move without the North American customs and drug enforcement catching on!"
"Good, also, the godfather asked me to give this to you!" Lie Feng handed over an exquisitely made invitation to Third Young Master Jun.
Third Young Master Jun was surprised that the godfather actually intended to let him appear in public—what was his motive?
He took it with no change in expression, opened it to look, and was momentarily stunned, his fingers stroking the English invitation. It was for the Hua Group’s third-quarter appreciation event for investors and clients—a business cocktail party!
