Chapter 551: 547. Find Me, and I Will Tell You (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

Facing the threat from Whale, Zhang Ran's expression was solemn; he knew that Whale was extremely serious this time.

If he did not go out this time, Whale would certainly choose to hide the entire Whale Shark Organization, and then wait for an opportunity to strike back.

Indeed, Zhang Ran could arrange for people to protect Zhang Sicheng and the others well, and he was confident that Whale could not pose much of a threat to them.

But this required them to be in Huaxia, and neither Zhang Sicheng nor Zhang Siyan could stay in Huaxia for their entire lives; they needed to go out into the world.

Unless Zhang Ran abandoned all the arrangements he had made in the overseas regions, they had to go out; this was also their responsibility as Zhang Ran's children.

This was even more true for the two little ones; the children were still young, and if Whale were to use a few lives to scare the two children whenever he felt like it, it would certainly affect the children's growth.

Although the losses from doing so would be shockingly large, Whale was perfectly willing to pay them.

Zhang Ran was silent for a moment and said, "I am a bit curious now, why you kept targeting me back then. Although we were indeed enemies, it shouldn't have been enough to make you go to such lengths."

Back then, conflicts between Zhang Ran and Whale Shark had actually arisen very early on, and both sides had clashed several times, though Whale was usually the one to suffer.

But even so, it shouldn't have been enough for them to go all out against him at that time, or even dare to do these things at the cost of the organization's destruction.

"And even if you had succeeded back then, you wouldn't have ended up well in the end, would you? You would have been purged eventually. This really makes me a bit unable to understand." Zhang Ran seemed to be talking to himself.

Whale laughed, laughing quite heartily. "You want to know? Just as you thought, there is an inside story to this, a very big inside story."

"When you find me, I will tell you all about these things, and I guarantee I won't hide a single thing. Hahaha, Rich Man, I'll be waiting for you."

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "Fine, just wait."

"The Rich Man really hasn't changed, still so bold." Whale did not seem surprised at all, and after saying this, he hung up the phone directly.

Zhang Ran held his phone and fell into deep thought. After coming back to his senses, he said to He Yong, "Go ask those people if they have encountered any abnormal situations recently."

He Yong nodded and began to contact the bodyguards of Zhang Sicheng and the others, and soon received feedback.

"Brother Zhang, there seems to be a slight situation, but it is not very obvious. Recently, there have just been some people with abnormal behavior trying to approach them, but they all chose to give up in the end."

"These were just their guesses, so they didn't report it in time," He Yong said.

Zhang Ran gave a hum and stopped speaking. It seemed that the fact he had received news about Whale Shark in advance last time was still useful.

Otherwise, given Whale Shark's hatred for him, he would certainly have retaliated against Zhang Sicheng and the others first; as long as something happened to Zhang Sicheng and the others, Zhang Ran would definitely come out.

"Brother Zhang, you had better not take this risk, it is too dangerous," He Yong could not help but say.

"Just leave these things to me to handle; I guarantee I won't let him stay alive."

Zhang Ran seemed not to have heard his words and muttered to himself, "How did I get at odds with these people back then? Why did they insist on putting me to death? Was there such deep hatred between us?"

"Also, was all the intelligence back then really provided by Zhou Fei? Why did he suddenly turn against us in the end? Was it really out of a guilty conscience?"

"Originally, I wanted to wait a bit longer, to wait until things were stable on my side before going to resolve these matters, but now it seems there is no need to wait."

The reason Zhang Ran had not gone out, and the only time he had gone abroad was to Russia, which was right next to Huaxia.

There were many reasons for this, and part of the reason was because of this incident from back then.

This matter was very complicated; although it looked simple, if one really thought deeply about the things within it, one would find that it was filled with fog.

That incident back then also caused Zhang Ran huge losses, so large that even he felt a pang of heartache.

And now the opportunity had come; Whale seemed to have found out everything, so did Zhang Ran no longer need to find the answers himself?

Zhang Ran looked at He Yong's worried expression and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I was able to wipe them out once, so I can wipe them out a second time."

"Besides, this matter is not urgent. Take it slow; I have plenty of time, and I believe Whale won't be too anxious either."

Whale was certainly anxious, but he also knew that being anxious was useless; if Zhang Ran did not prepare himself, he would not come out easily.

Whale was well aware of this point, but he could only wait, and he seemed not to want to urge Zhang Ran either.

"You should prepare on your end as well," Zhang Ran said.

Seeing that Zhang Ran had made up his mind, He Yong did not say anything more; there were very few people who could persuade Zhang Ran once he had made a decision.

"Dad, time to eat," Zhang Sicheng called out.

Zhang Ran responded, then temporarily put these matters aside and began to focus on eating with his family.

"Dad, did you encounter something again?" Zhang Sicheng asked.

Everyone had not crowded around when Zhang Ran was on the phone just now, but Zhang Sicheng had seen his father's expression change several times, and it did not seem like a good thing, which was why he asked.

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "An old enemy from the past called."

He did not hide anything; Zhang Sicheng and the others were all grown up now, and Zhang Ran would not hide what they should know.

At the same time, it was also necessary to let them understand the situation more and to be on guard against some things.

"An enemy? Dad, what is going on?" Zhang Sicheng immediately became nervous.

Zhang Ran said, "No need to worry, it's a small matter. There are some things that need to be settled; it has dragged on for so many years, and there is no need to drag it on any longer."

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Sicheng took a deep breath and said.

Zhang Ran said, "Just don't leave Huaxia recently, other than that, there is nothing else."

"Alright, don't ask so much. When the time is right, I will tell you all about it. You just focus on your career for now; you don't need to worry about other things."

Zhang Sicheng nodded; he also knew that his current ability could not help his father, which made him feel a bit urgent.

He could not let his father bear everything alone; as a son, he also had to take on some things.

Liu Lu was not interested in these matters, and at the same time, she had an inexplicable confidence in her father-in-law, as if nothing could stump him.

Although Zhang Siyan did not speak, she kept everything in her heart.

The two little ones were extremely happy now because they had finished their homework!

After dinner, Zhang Ran took the two little ones out for a stroll and chatted with some of the old men and women in the residential compound, as if he had not encountered anything at all.
