Chapter 1473: Chapter 1473: Finale Part 21
All kinds of grains and living supplies are being brought in at sky-high prices, which really requires a huge expenditure. This transaction is of great importance, of course I must be cautious, temporarily changing the place, in such a short time, naturally I’m not afraid of them playing tricks."
Ye Lu gritted her teeth in hatred, inwardly cursing this old fox for being both shameless and cunning, yet he still put on a show, making every word seem reasonable and washing his hands clean.
In fact, she and Third Young Master Jun both understood that the Godfather probably already had some suspicions about them.
He just remained silent all along, and only at the last moment suddenly stabbed them in the back, leaving them no time to react! Old fox, oh old fox.
"So where does the Godfather plan to conduct the transaction?" Third Young Master Jun’s expression was cold and calm, as if nothing had ever happened.
Even Ye Lu was surprised by his composure. The entire plan had been ruined, yet he could still remain calm.
"Well... you’ll naturally find out shortly, this business is very important, I’ve decided to go personally! Alright, prepare yourselves, we’ll set off!" the Godfather ordered.
His bodyguards, personally brought from East Asia, began to swiftly prepare to set off.
Then he demanded that everyone present remove their communication devices.
Ye Lu’s heart gradually sank, the Godfather clearly never intended to let them know the specific location, and wanted to personally bring so many people, evidently to control the whole situation.
It left Third Young Master Jun with no opportunity to notify outsiders for help, intended to completely sever their contact with the outside world.
And since the location was chosen by the Godfather, that place must already be teeming with his men and ambushes, an inescapable net, with only herself and Third Young Master Jun against everyone. If anything goes wrong, they’re likely to be riddled with bullets!
But there’s no choice now.
Very soon, several cars were ready outside, Ye Lu and Third Young Master Jun never had a chance to speak together, and when they got into the cars, Third Young Master Jun was put in the same car as Su Feiman, while Ye Lu was driven into another car, giving them absolutely no chance to contact each other.
Ye Lu sat in the car, the vehicles speeding along the road, she gazed at the expansive night outside the window, her heart feeling empty.
All plans had been disrupted, so now she didn’t know what to do next, completely clueless, yet she knew that tonight she and Third Young Master Jun were walking on the edge of a knife, one wrong move, and both of them would lose their lives.
Could only smile wryly, ultimately, man plans but heaven decides, could only take it one step at a time.
However, she wasn’t overly anxious or panicked, perhaps because she had mentally prepared for the worst, at worst, wouldn’t they just die? What else could the Godfather do to them?
More importantly, with Third Young Master Jun by her side, she felt very secure, being together with him gave her more confidence than any external force could.
So, Ye Lu showed a faint smile, looking out the window, secretly thinking, tonight would just be a game, a game whose outcome could be life or death, she’d take the chance and bet everything!
Sitting beside her, the shadow tasked with monitoring her, saw her expression change many times, from initial confusion and worry to eventual relaxation and a smile,
inwardly feeling a shock, being secretly schemed against by the Godfather, the future uncertain, at such a life-or-death moment, anyone else would be like an ant on a hot pan, restless, anxious, and pale with fear, yet she could still face it with a smile, with a calmness and fearlessness as if indifferent to life and death.
Even he, who had faced countless bloody slaughters, felt a genuine admiration.
It’s not those unafraid of death who deserve respect, but those who, full of love for life, still remain unafraid, that truly invoke admiration.
