I nodded slightly.
Just when Lu Ming thought I was about to leave, I suddenly said loudly, "What do you mean there's no problem? I see a big problem here! Someone, take these troublemakers down!"
Lu Ming was taken aback. "My lord, what do you mean by that?"
I smiled and replied, "What do I mean? My people said there's no problem, which means there is a big problem!"
Lu Ming's expression darkened. "My lord, are you determined to go against our Lin Yuanwai today?"
I nodded slightly. "You guessed it right!"
Lu Ming signaled to the bodyguards, and they all drew their swords, pointing them at us.
Yuan Bufei and the others were not intimidated either; they drew their swords as well.
Both sides were at a standstill.
I stood in the middle, my eyes fixed on Lu Ming, while my mind raced.
I was looking for the person I needed to find.
This person, Mou Xiaoning had once told me, was the most ruthless underling of Lin Mautsai and had killed three people with his bare hands before.
If he was really here, he would definitely make a move.
I was taking a gamble.
I bet that Lin Mautsai would definitely let this person act for the sake of this shipment.
And this person had a naturally volatile temper; with just a little provocation, he would strike.
By that time, my goal would have been achieved.
Lu Ming saw that I had been silent and said with a smile, "Sir, how about this? Let's each take a step back and pretend that today's incident never happened.
When I return, I will definitely explain to our Lin Yuanwai that you acted out of necessity for official business. Our Lin Yuanwai is an open-minded person and will surely understand you."
I let out a cold laugh and ignored him.
Lu Ming continued, "Sir, our Lin Yuanwai has quite a reputation in the Jianghu. If you really take this cargo today, it would be like slapping our Lin Yuanwai in the face. Just think about it: even if you were to kill us all today, could you take this cargo away? You cannot.
Moreover, consider the consequences. You should be well aware of our Lin Yuanwai's connections in the Party State. By taking this cargo today, you would be cutting off our Lin Yuanwai's source of income. With just a flick of his finger, he could make it impossible for you to stand in Nanjiang. Sir, you must think this through."
I still did not respond to him.
Lu Ming couldn't guess what I was thinking and did not dare to move.
I glanced at Lu Ming and noticed that his forehead was covered in sweat.
I knew he must be feeling very uncomfortable right now.
I looked over at the bodyguards; they were also restless.
I knew they were about to lose their composure.
If this dragged on, Lu Ming would definitely act out of desperation.
As I raised my eyes, I suddenly noticed someone not far away glaring at me fiercely.
This person was tall and dark-skinned, with a face as black as the bottom of a pot.
There was a large scar on the back of his hand, resembling a knife wound.
His clothes were also disheveled, as if he had just finished a fight with someone.
I realized that the person I was looking for was him!
I walked up to him and whispered, "You are Wang Gang, right?"
Wang Gang was taken aback and replied fiercely, "So what if I am?"
I glanced around to see that no one was nearby and pretended to whisper something to him.
Wang Gang paused for a moment, staring at me as if he couldn't believe his ears.
I whispered it to him again.
Wang Gang instantly exploded in rage, "What the hell did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
I enunciated each word clearly: "I said, Lin Mautsai is an old dog!"
Wang Gang could no longer hold back and lunged at me with a knife.
