Chapter 474: 470. It

There were over a dozen people standing at the entrance; apart from Wen Jing and his group, the rest were there to drop people off.

However, it was clearly visible that these people were not all from the same group.

This was exactly what made Wang Yicheng feel terrified!

Wen Jing and the others had not yet recovered their senses, especially Fan Hong, whose eyes were currently dazed.

He did not know how the others had been caught, but he had been captured with a gun pointed directly at his head.

Unlike the others, the place he was hiding in was a chaotic region like Myanmar, and since he kept a low profile there, it was very difficult to find him.

Yet even so, he was still found; he could hardly forget that group of people appearing yesterday driving trucks, with machine guns mounted on them.

It was just like being in a war.

Upon seeing Zhang Ran, these people each stepped forward and said, "Mr. Zhang, do you see if the wrong people were caught?"

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "That's correct. Thank your boss for me. When there's an opportunity, I'll treat them to a meal."

The leaders of the several waves all nodded, but without another word, they left directly; since the people had already been brought, there was nothing left for them to do.

They truly did not know Zhang Ran; these were merely tasks their respective bosses had entrusted to them.

However, one or two people remained. One of them said, "Mr. Zhang, if you have any needs, you can hand these people over to us; there is no need to dirty your own hands."

The meaning was very clear: if Zhang Ran wanted to finish these people off, they were willing to be of service.

Zhang Ran nodded silently, signaling that he understood.

Immediately after, these two left behind a contact method and departed as well. They were not in a hurry to leave; only if Zhang Ran really had no further issues would they depart.

The scene was left with only Wen Jing and his group. Watching the fierce stars who had captured them leave, Wen Jing and the others subconsciously wanted to heave a sigh of relief, but then, thinking of the scene just now, their hearts trembled.

This scene also brought a huge shock to Wang Chen.

He had always known that Zhang Ran was very capable; he knew this back when Zhang Ran was making his way through the Hong Kong and Macau region.

But he had not expected that, after nearly thirty years, Zhang Ran would still possess such immense power.

Returning to the manor, Zhang Ran and the others sat on the sofa, while the six people including Wen Jing stood before them.

When Qian Li saw Wen Jing, there was a trace of confusion and resentment in her eyes!

She had not expected that the one person she had been most moved by over these years was actually deceiving her; it was in vain that she had been so self-indulgent.

Wen Jing also saw Qian Li, a trace of guilt flashing in his eyes.

Zhang Ran looked at them, tapped his fingers on the armrest, and said, "Speak."

Wen Jing and the others looked at each other, remaining silent. Even now, they had not figured out Zhang Ran's background, so they dared not say anything more at this moment.

"Not speaking? Or do you think I don't dare to do anything to you?" Zhang Ran said indifferently.

"This gentleman, I... I don't know why you caught me and brought me here; I don't know you." Fan Hong still wanted to argue.

But immediately, he saw Zhang Ran's expression turn cold. "Do you take me for a fool?"

"Fine. Who else says they don't know? Those unrelated to this matter, stand out, and I will let you go."

Zhang Ran suddenly said these words, causing Fan Hong and the others to be stunned. Wen Jing reacted the fastest; his expression changed drastically, and he immediately said, "I'll talk."

Fan Hong and the others also understood the meaning in Zhang Ran's words. If they said they didn't know, they would likely be taken back by those two people who had specifically stayed behind to do the dirty work, right?

At this moment, Fan Hong and these people no longer had any thoughts of luck, and they were filled with immense regret. They truly had not expected to kick an iron plate this time.

Zhang Ran looked at Wen Jing and said, "You are Wen Jing?"

"Yes," Wen Jing said hurriedly.

Zhang Ran looked at him, then looked at Qian Li, squinted his eyes, and said, "Then speak."

Wen Jing took a deep breath, not daring to look at Qian Li's eyes, and began to recount the matter.

In truth, their target this time was not Qian Li at all, but someone they had been eyeing for a long time.

But clearly, they did not succeed and were beaten up by someone instead.

Wen Jing encountered Qian Li when he went to the hospital to dress his wounds; at that time, Qian Li happened to be taking care of Qian Zhengkun.

Wen Jing had initially targeted her because of the expensive clothing and bags Qian Li wore.

There wasn't a single cheap item on Qian Li; she was in that business now, so of course, she wouldn't treat herself poorly.

And Qian Li had felt very good about Wen Jing at first sight. After some back and forth, Qian Li, for some reason, fell for Wen Jing.

Wen Jing had also inquired about some of Qian Li's information and knew she was a rich woman—she had money!

That was how the subsequent events came to be.

They were professionals at this; Chai Gou was a partner of theirs in Macau, and they had made quite a bit of money over the years.

But they hadn't expected to be completely finished this time.

After listening, Zhang Ran said, "So, all of you were just an accident."

"Yes, Mr. Zhang. We didn't know the relationship between Ms. Qian and you; otherwise, even if we had eight times the courage, we wouldn't have dared," Fan Hong said hurriedly.

Zhang Ran laughed. "Really?"

"Really, Mr. Zhang. Even if we had more courage, we wouldn't dare to harbor any crooked thoughts toward you." At this moment, Fan Hong sounded as sincere as could be.

However, this was also the truth; if he had known Qian Li had such a massive background, he wouldn't have dared to do this even if it killed him.

Zhang Ran, however, gave a mocking laugh and said, "Dare not? Heh, what is there that you wouldn't dare to do? One hundred million—your appetites are truly large."

"Mr. Zhang, we will return all our money to you..." Fan Hong said immediately.

Zhang Ran said, "Do I lack that little bit of money from you?"

After saying this, he ignored these people and looked at Qian Li instead. "Xiao Li, do you have any thoughts? Don't worry, no matter what happens, Zhang Shu will help you shoulder it."

Hearing this, Fan Hong and the others subconsciously looked at Qian Li, their eyes filled with pleading.

But Qian Li did not look at them once; she only stared at Wen Jing. At this moment, Wen Jing only lowered his head.

Finally, Qian Li said, "Wen Jing, do you have anything you want to explain?"

Fan Hong and the others looked at Wen Jing again, all signaling to him with their eyes. They could all see that Qian Li liked Wen Jing; at this time, only Wen Jing speaking would be effective.

But Wen Jing only lowered his head and said nothing.

Seeing him in this state, a look of mockery flashed in Qian Li's eyes as she said, "As expected, in your eyes, I am nothing more than a tool."

Wen Jing moved his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, no words came out.

Zhang Ran said to Qian Li, "Xiao Li, if you truly like him, then Zhang Shu will make the decision for you. Rest assured, as long as you like him, Zhang Shu will make him stay honestly by your side. At worst, we can just keep a cripple; we certainly have enough money for that."
