Chapter 179: Who is the Protagonist?

<

Duda left, and before leaving, he restored the appearance of a sturdy man, walking out of the grocery store and disappearing into the crowd.

The reason why he waited an hour before contacting Deng Feng after Yang Haoran was to avoid being intercepted by Deng Feng and to leave safely.

Yang Haoran closed the door again, a hint of a cold smile on his face.

He didn't immediately contact Deng Feng, but according to Duda's request, he waited for an hour before taking out his mobile phone and dialing Deng Feng's number.

The phone connected after ringing a few times, and Deng Feng's indifferent voice came from the other end.

"Who is this?"

"Divine envoy, it's Yang Haoran."

Deng Feng didn't have Yang Haoran's phone number, which didn't surprise Yang Haoran at all. After all, he was just a small employee while Deng Feng was the boss. It was normal for the boss not to have his number.

It wasn't surprising that Yang Haoran had Deng Feng's number. As a prominent figure by the boss's side, even if only superficially, he naturally needed to have the boss's number so he could report to him anytime there was an issue.

Upon hearing it was Yang Haoran, Deng Feng's indifferent tone warmed up slightly.

"Haoran, what's the matter?"

Deng Feng suddenly called himself Haoran, which Yang Haoran was not quite accustomed to for a moment. In the past, in front of Deng Feng, he didn't even have a title.

"Divine envoy, there's news about Duda." Yang Haoran got straight to the point without any nonsense.

As soon as Deng Feng heard that there was news about Duda, his tone changed immediately, becoming much more excited.

"What news?" Deng Feng asked.

"He just came to see me and nearly killed me!" Yang Haoran said with a terrified expression.

"He came to see you? Why did he come to you?" Deng Feng asked, the previous hint of warmth disappearing, replaced by seriousness.

"He thinks the incident where you intercepted him last time is related to me, so he wanted to come back and deal with me." Yang Haoran responded.

There was silence on Deng Feng's end of the phone for a few seconds before he asked, "Then why are you still alive? What did you tell him?"

"Hehe, I told him about our plan." Yang Haoran said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Deng Feng seemed to have understood something but wasn't entirely sure.

"What do I mean? Divine envoy, haven't you already guessed?" Yang Haoran replied with a smile.

"Setting up an ambush in advance, waiting for him to fall into the trap. That's indeed a good idea, but I don't want to do it for the time being."

Deng Feng's answer made Yang Haoran furrow his brows.

"Duda is not someone to be taken lightly. It's best not to miss the opportunity to get rid of him, to prevent any unexpected twists later on," Yang Haoran advised.

"I have my own thoughts on this matter, you don't need to ask more. Your previous plan doesn't need to be changed either. Although Duda, that old guy, knows about it now, thinking about it carefully, it might not be a bad thing. So I've decided, let's proceed with the original plan," Deng Feng suddenly laughed inexplicably, addressing Yang Haoran.

"Proceed with the original plan, divine envoy..."

Yang Haoran wanted to say something more, but Deng Feng interrupted him directly.

"Alright, just do as I say. When the time comes for the plan, I hope you'll follow the script we've prepared earlier. Actually, you are the protagonist of this play. If you don't perform well, even if Duda, that old guy, knows our plan, he will still think it's a trap and won't easily fall for it."

After saying this, Deng Feng hung up the phone directly, showing his boss-like demeanor.

Yang Haoran put away his mobile phone, his brows relaxing. The doubt on his face disappeared, replaced by a cold smile.

He knew Deng Feng had been quite wary of him all along, so there were some things he didn't want to reveal to him at all.

However, Deng Feng's request to proceed with the original plan was just what he wanted.

He knew Deng Feng was not entirely trusting of him, just like Duda. So he had just suggested to Deng Feng to ambush Duda in advance, knowing that Deng Feng would refuse and continue with the original plan!

The result was very satisfying to him.

"Although my life journey is coming to an end, I still want to taste the feeling of being the protagonist before I die. Perhaps... as Deng Feng said, I am the true protagonist of this play, from beginning to end."

At the same time, Deng Feng also put away his mobile phone, his face showing a similarly cold smile.

"Hehe, it's really something to look forward to. I really hope that day will come soon."
