“Are you questioning me?” Counsellor Mo said coldly.
The man on the other end of the phone paused, but he did not show any fear or guilt. Instead, he calmly said, “I’m just analyzing the situation for First Prince.”
The man’s calmness upset Counsellor Mo even more, but he knew that Ke Jie would think he was making a fuss if he argued with the man, so he did not retort but said grumpily, “It’s up to you, First Prince.” After he spoke, he went out of the room and left Ke Jie, who was in a dilemma.
The man on the phone was Kong Ming, Ke Jie’s confidant, and Ke Jie trusted his analysis. However, Counsellor Mo was equally important to him, so he was indecisive.
“First Prince, we’d better retreat, as Nan Xiao’s identity has not been exposed yet. There is no point in making a move at this time. Why don’t we take our time and think it over?” Kong Ming continued to persuade, hoping Ke Jie would follow his advice.
Ke Jie pinched his forehead between his eyebrows, feeling hesitant. After all, this opportunity was rare, and it might never come up again if he gave it up this time.
However, Kong Ming had a point there. If they attacked now, the loss would outweigh the gain, so he could only agree and said, “Retreat.”
“Yes, First Prince.” Kong Ming quickly asked his subordinates to retreat without any hesitation.
“That’s strange. Colonel, are they retreating?” Ji Guangming was confused and asked He Jingyan.
He Jingyan frowned, but soon after, he raised his eyebrows. ‘It seems that the plan is going on well. They didn’t see my men, so they left. They are definitely sent by Ke Jie’.
“Now, it’s time for you to make a move,” He Jingyan suddenly said.
Ji Guangming paused for a while before he realized that He Jingyan was talking to him. His eyes lit up immediately. He quickly started the car and rushed into the alley.
Xu Yangyi was leaning against the wall and loading the guns. When he heard the car coming, he got nervous, thinking more enemies had come.
“Damn it. Worse luck!” Xu Yangyi cursed inwardly, peeking outside to see the number of the cars. Before he could take a proper look, he heard guns firing and cars crashing.
“What’s up?” Xu Yangyi was taken aback.
“Yangyi, I’m here to help you.” When Xu Yangyi was confused, he heard Ji Guangming’s loud voice.
‘Ji Guangming? Why is he here?’
Xu Yangyi’s eyes suddenly darkened. As Ji Guangming was here, He Jingyan must be nearby.
‘Does that bastard come to me now? Where was he a moment ago?’
“He Jingyan, you bastard, come out.” he suddenly roared.
Ji Guangming, who had just blown off an enemy’s head, was puzzled, as Xu Yangyi got angry instead of feeling happy.
“Yangyi, the Colonel…”
“Shut up.” Xu Yangyi interrupted Ji Guangming.
‘How dare you not come to me? He Jingyan, you’re dead meat. Let’s see how I will punish you.’
Xu Yangyi was so angry that he almost shouted abuse.
“Damn it. What’s the point of shouting? Go and give him hell now.” Xu Yangyi got up angrily and was about to rush out. But before he could move, a cold gun was pressed against the back of his head.
Xu Yangyi shuddered and froze.
