However, she had underestimated the enthusiasm of Xiao Lei and Xia Rui. The two of them halted the boat and chased after her.
“Miss Song, we have an on-ship banquet on the sea today. It’s planned to be especially fun. Why don’t you come with us?”
Song Fan shook her head. “I still have something to do tonight, so I won’t be going with you guys.”
As she turned to leave, Xiao Lei quickly stopped her. “Come on. I remember Gu
Chen saying that he had something for you, but because it was too precious, he kept it with him. He was afraid that someone would break it halfway when he delivered it. You can also take it back. It’s killing two birds with one stone.”
This reason was very attractive. Song Fan thought that perhaps Gu Chen had found the Tango Fruit. This was something she had always wanted. She couldn’t wait to get it now to be at ease.
Upon thinking of this, Song Fan made up her mind. She nodded and said, “Then I’ll go with you.”
She sent a message to Hua Yue to postpone the meeting temporarily. She was looking forward to the moment when she got her hands on the Tango Fruit.
Song Fan happily boarded the boat and went all the way to the dock to board the cruise ship. Xiao Lei and the others showed their invitation cards, and Song Fan followed them as their female companions.
The waiters all looked at her in surprise. After all, among these female companions, only Song Fan was dressed the most simply. Not only did she not put on makeup, she did not even wear a gown.
This was the first time they had seen a female companion in a sweater and jeans. Moreover, she was walking in front with two men following behind her.
It seemed that she was the one who had the final say.
After boarding the cruise ship, Song Fan started looking for Gu Chen and asked, “Where is Gu Chen?”
“Don’t worry, Gu Chen still has some business to attend to. You’ll see him when the banquet starts,” Xia Rui comforted her.
Song Fan thought of the Tango Fruit that was just a few feet away and felt a little anxious, but she still sat down obediently and waited for the banquet to begin.
Xiao Lei put an exquisite bracelet on her wrist and said, “With this, they will know that you are a VIP on the cruise and can do whatever they want.”
This wasn’t the first time Song Fan had attended such a banquet. However, she had accepted assassination missions in the past, so she didn’t have such a relaxed attitude.
She sat on the chair and enjoyed the sunlight. She sighed at how good the life of the rich was. She had forgotten that she was also a wealthy person.
Xia Rui and Xiao Lei were the representatives of the family. Many people came over to greet them, so they couldn’t care less about Song Fan.
She could tell that the two of them were very busy, so she waved her hand and said, “You don’t have to worry about me. There’s nothing dangerous on this ship. You two know my martial strength. Go do what you need to do.”
The two of them felt that Song Fan’s words were very reasonable. In terms of martial strength, she was indeed invincible, so they obediently turned around and went to do their things.
At first, Song Fan waited patiently for a while. But as time passed, she began to get frustrated. She stood up and prepared to look for Gu Chen.
Even if he was busy, Su Yang could still call out the name. The Tango Fruit must be with them.
The thing she had been looking forward to had finally appeared. She was so excited that she wanted to swallow it right now so that she could be at ease. The ship was filled with people dressed in bright and beautiful clothes. Song Fan shuttled between them and ran to the center.
After finally entering, before she could find Gu Chen, Gu Chen’s name was heard from someone else’s mouth.
Song Fan immediately hid herself and listened to what they wanted to do.
Half of those people were from Hua Country, and the other half were foreigners. It was unknown what they were doing here.
“Gu Chen’s life accounts for half of the bounty. If you can kill him, you won’t have to worry about the rest of your life,” the leader said.
A, who was hired, said, “Since his life is worth a fortune, the mission level must be high, right?”
“Gu Chen is famous for being difficult to kill in assassination organizations.
Last time, a mercenary group accepted a mission, but the entire group was wiped out,” B added.
“The reward is linked to the difficulty. If it was easy to complete, there wouldn’t be so much money,” the leader said disdainfully. “Don’t tell me you want to retreat?”
Upon thinking of the generous bounty, these people were tempted. Taking on an assassination mission was originally a risky pursuit of wealth. As long as there was enough money, they would dare to kill the president of a country.
“We’ll accept this mission. We’ll bring back Gu Chen’s dead body,” A said firmly.
Song Fan didn’t expect that there would be so many people who wanted to kill Gu Chen. As long as she went out, she would meet a group of them. She had to hurry and tell Gu Chen.
Song Fan retreated like a ghost and didn’t alarm anyone. Then, she continued to run inside..
