"Privileges?" Seeing Meng Fan's unquestionable appearance, the old man muttered to himself for a moment. He seemed to be hesitating, and didn't directly answer. It was unknown what he was considering.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became heavy. Meng Fan and the old man both stared at each other as if nothing had happened. Even the woman called Little Shadow, who had been standing behind the old man, couldn't help but look nervously at Meng Fan.
If he couldn't even achieve this, then there was really no need for him to work with them. After all, if the other party didn't even agree to such a request, then there would be no need for them to work together.
To him, working with "Shadow" was much more dangerous than working with Zheng Yu. He had a country behind him, and Meng Fan was probably backed by only himself. Even Zhou Zheng was a member of the military.
As he thought of this, Meng Fan looked at him without any fear. His eyes did not even blink. It was as if in his eyes, there was only the old man in the room.
It was as if the more he looked at Meng Fan, the more he appreciated him. Not long later, he heard the old man laugh, and then he opened his mouth and asked, "You want a privilege, why don't you let me hear what you want?"
"If you don't interfere with my actions and give me an official identity, you can't let the police keep an eye on me, right?" Meng Fan's expression was the same as ever as he listened to the old man.
When he looked directly into the old man's eyes, he was a bit nervous. Now that the old man was the first to speak and break the awkward silence, Meng Fan naturally made some concessions. However, he wasn't sure if the old man would agree to his request.
"Good!" I promise you that I can give you the status of a 'hidden' member, but you also need to agree to one of my requests! " However, after hearing Meng Fan's words, the old man didn't hesitate for even a moment. He immediately agreed to Meng Fan's request.
Seeing that the old man had agreed to his request, even if Meng Fan was even calmer, he couldn't help but feel joy in his heart. But before he could even show a happy expression, he heard the old man's last words.
"Requirements!" "You guys are so big, yet you want me to agree to your request? Aren't you bullying me?" Meng Fan muttered to himself with a sad face. It was as if he had suffered a great grievance.
Seeing Meng Fan's expression, the old man laughed loudly and looked at Meng Fan with interest. The figure that had been standing behind the old man the entire time shot a disdainful glance at Meng Fan. It seemed that the old man really despised Meng Fan.
To him, in front of the old man, he was already a weaker party. Furthermore, the age gap between the two of them was very large, and if he were to negotiate with the old man in a serious manner, it might not be beneficial for him. However, if he tried a different method, it might have some effect.
"Kid, don't joke with me! Old Man Sun told me all about you. My request is very simple, I won't interfere with your movements, but you have to have someone by your side. I won't let you do whatever you want! " The old man looked at Meng Fan with interest, then laughed.
"Elder Sun?" He had not expected Elder Sun to know about it. However, after a moment of thought, he understood. Considering Elder Sun's status in the country, although he didn't have a high position in the clan, the people he knew were not minor characters. It was normal for him to know Elder Sun.
However, since Old Sun had told him everything that had happened, Meng Fan was slightly speechless. He inwardly cursed Old Sun for being disrespectful. He was afraid that his little secret had been leaked out by the other party.
After thinking about it, Meng Fan had no reason to refuse. Besides, based on what the old man had said, since the old man had found out about him from Elder Sun, there was no point in doing so.
"Alright! I agree to your request, but I hope that your people will not interfere with my actions. Of course, I will not do anything excessive! " Since there was no way to refuse, Meng Fan had no choice but to accept. At the same time, he made a request of his own.
Of course, Meng Fan's so-called request couldn't really be considered a request. He had already said it before, and was only repeating it once more. Compared to the old man, he wouldn't refuse, or else he would beat Meng Fan to death.
Sure enough, after Meng Fan finished speaking, the old man nodded his head with a smile. He did not refuse Meng Fan's request, but looked at the figure behind him and continued, "Shadow! I'll let you stay by his side from now on! "
"What?"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Meng Fan and Shadow, who were in the room aside from the old man, both cried out in surprise. They had never imagined that the old man would arrange something like this.
Although the figure of the woman named Shadow was not bad, Meng Fan didn't think much of her personality. After all, he had only met her two times before, and obviously, they were both unhappy. If he wanted her to follow him in the future, it would not be a good thing.
Meng Fan wasn't the only one. From the expression on Shadow's face, it seemed that she didn't want to do this. Every time she looked at Meng Fan, she would look at him with disdain.
"Why me?" Before Meng Fan could say anything, Shadow walked up to the old man and asked with an unwilling expression. It was obvious that the old man's decision had been rejected.
"Exactly! Let's change someone else! With her figure, she's not my type! " Meng Fan followed up without thinking about it at all. Although his eyes were the same as Shadow's, it was only because of his words that Meng Fan offended him. He glared viciously at Meng Fan, and Meng Fan realized that his words were too direct.
However, he didn't have the slightest bit of regret. Ignoring Shadow's vicious gaze, he continued to say to the old man, "I really don't get along with her. If you don't want any accidents to happen, you'd better change your identity!"
Meng Fan's words were spoken with utmost sincerity. He didn't seem uncomfortable at all; it was as if he was speaking the truth.
However, the old man continued to smile silently at Meng Fan and Shadow's words. He looked at them with interest, and seemed to be watching from the sidelines. He didn't say anything, as if Meng Fan and Meng Hao's reasons weren't enough for him to change his mind.
Seeing this, Meng Fan and Shadow couldn't help but be taken aback. They looked at the old man with teary faces, as if they were very unwilling and hoped that he would change his mind.
However, all of this was within the old man's calculations. He had already expected this to happen, but he hadn't expected Meng Fan to have such a reaction. His expression slightly changed as he continued to smile at Meng Fan.1
"So be it! If someone else were to follow you, I would not be at ease! " As the old man spoke, he cast a meaningful glance at Meng Fan before turning his head to Shadow and continued, "In the future, follow him. Watch over this kid for me!"
With that, the old man ignored Meng Fan and Meng Li's reactions and walked out of the room. He didn't care about whether Meng Fan and Shadow agreed or not.
Seeing this, Meng Fan let out a light sigh. Helplessly, he watched as the old man left. Then, he turned his head and formally left.
This was the first time Meng Fan had formally sized him up. From the outside, he could definitely be considered a beauty. Not mentioning his tall stature, his curvy and beautiful appearance definitely made a man feel like burning with lust.
As he thought about it, Meng Fan's heart skipped a beat. Letting such a beauty follow him was a type of welfare. He was also a man. Although he didn't like Shadow's personality, he was still a beauty.
However, Meng Fan seemed to be someone who was extremely detestable to him. When Meng Fan looked at him, Meng Hao's anger grew. He gave a cold harrumph, then glared fiercely at Meng Fan and said, "Let's go! Do you want to stay here forever? "
"It's you! Come with me! Do you want me to go with you? " Meng Fan felt disdain in his heart. He really wasn't used to her cold tone. Thinking about how he would have to spend some time with her in the future, he felt a bit displeased, as if he had boarded a pirate ship.
After he finished speaking, Meng Fan also ignored the shadow at the side. He got up and walked toward the door, not caring if the other person was following him or not.
Shadow was extremely angry at Meng Fan's performance. He stood there hesitating for a moment before letting out a cold snort and following Meng Fan out.
On the way out of the underground base, perhaps due to the presence of the shadow, no one stopped the two of them in their tracks. On the way out of the underground base, perhaps due to the presence of the shadow, no one stopped the two of them in their tracks.
Currently, the underground parking lot was very quiet. The shadows from earlier had also disappeared. This caused Meng Fan to look around in astonishment. After discovering nothing out of the ordinary, he was finally able to relax a bit.
Before Meng Fan could even get close to the car, Zhou Qing seemed to have noticed him. She immediately opened the door and stepped out of the car. Meng Fan had a worried expression on his face, but when she saw the figure following behind Meng Fan, her expression changed.
"Another problem!" "Let's get on the car and go back first!" Seeing Zhou Qing's expression, Meng Fan let out a helpless sigh. Without even looking behind him at the shadow, he opened the door and got in the car to start the engine.
After hearing Meng Fan's words, Zhou Qing looked at Shadow in surprise. Without saying a word, she returned to the car. It wasn't until Shadow got on that Meng Fan started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
Along the way, Meng Fan didn't say anything. He seemed to be focused on driving, but in his heart, he was still constantly thinking about the pros and cons of collaborating with Shadow. After all, to him, cooperating with others was a very dangerous thing.
With his current strength, he really wasn't a match for the other party. Not to mention that Meng Fan was still in the country, and this was all within the jurisdiction of the Dark World. No matter how powerful he was, he wouldn't be able to beat him.
The more Meng Fan thought about it, the angrier he got, especially considering that Shadow had interfered. Meng Fan had the feeling that he was being watched. From the way the old man was acting, it seemed that he had already been under investigation.
However, what made Meng Fan even more speechless was that during the entire trip, Meng Fan didn't say anything, but instead chatted with Zhou Qing. In fact, she had already told Zhou Qing everything, and Zhou Qing had no objections.
Although this saved Meng Fan a lot of time to talk, but when he saw that Shadow and Zhou Qing seemed like they wanted to chat happily, it made him very unhappy.
His relationship with Shadow was not good in the first place, but at this moment, Shadow and Zhou Qing were having a good chat, which caused Meng Fan to be cast aside. No matter what, Meng Fan felt as if he had been abandoned.
