C2709 Reluctant to Part
2“It’s Gong Ming! Isn’t it?!” Shen Yan sneered. “Who else could it be other than him?!”
“You’ve wronged him,” the man said with a smile. “It’s not him.”
“Hehe, then you’re really protecting your master.” Shen Yan probably knew that he was dead for sure, so he didn’t hold back when he said it. “In this world, who else couldn’t accept me other than Gong Ming? Do you think I would believe that it’s not him just because you said so?”
“Young Master Shen, you’ve really misunderstood this time.” He probably never took this young master seriously, so every word he said was filled with strong sarcasm.
“Gong Ming probably wants you dead, but he won’t do it himself. Do you know why? Because there’s no need to.” The man smiled and said, “He doesn’t need to do it, he doesn’t need to signal, and he doesn’t even need to hint. Because some people will help him do it, like me.”
“…” Shen Yan struggled to raise his head and stared at him coldly. He sneered and said, “Is that so? Then you’re really a loyal dog! Gong Ming personally said that he would treat me well. If you treat me this way, do you think he won’t take you out and kill you? Let’s ignore whether his words are true or not. At the very least, he has to give me some face!”
“Are you not afraid that he will use you as a tool to establish his reputation? When I die, he will be rid of a thorn in his side. Everyone will definitely be suspicious of him. When that time comes, he will pull you out to block the blade. He will have both fame and fortune. You will be the only one who will have lost your life for nothing!”
Shen Yan’s every word was filled with hatred.
The man laughed. He did not seem worried at all. He sneered and teased, “You have been with your sister for a long time. You have learned a little of her skills. But you can be at ease. I am a hero. Gongming will not deal with people who have done a good deed. So, I can already imagine the outcome of this matter. When the time comes, I will pull an enemy of his out to block the blade. Whether others believe it or not, as long as I do it well, it will be fine. At that time, I can retreat with my life intact. Gongming will no longer be a threat.”
“So, the kind and innocent Young Master Shen, you will be the only one to be sacrificed in this matter. However, this is also your only use now. So, Young Master Shen, your sister has helped you so much. In the end, she sacrificed herself to protect you. You should go down and accompany her. Don’t let her stay alone.” The man laughed and slowly put on the eyepatch for him.
Shen Yan gritted his teeth and said, “So, this matter is your idea. You want to kill me and then make a name for yourself in front of Gongming, right?”
The man smiled even more arrogantly.
“Yeah. What do you think?”
“Then what about my sister?” Shen Yan clenched his teeth. He wished he could rush over and bite him to death. “Did you do it too?”
“Your sister, of course, it was my idea.” The man said, “There are too many powerful people in the Gong family. If I don’t grasp this opportunity, then I would be nothing. As long as I get rid of the two of you, then I will have absolute authority in front of Gong Ming. At that time, I can do whatever I want. Tell me, how could I let go of such a good opportunity?”
