"I, I didn't think much about it at the time. I just saw how easily I could make money, and I... I was blinded by greed."
"What is the real motive?" This was what Xiaofan wanted to know.
"I really don't know. They said that as long as the bank freezes all of Li Zhongran's assets, my task would be considered complete, and then... the money would naturally be given to me."
Liu Qiqi wanted to ask clearly at the time, but the other party refused to explain. Moreover, she had leverage held by them and was tempted by so much money, so she naturally agreed in the end.
"Xiaofan..." Li Kuo frowned when he realized no important clues were obtained.
Seeing Li Kuo's unhappy expression, Liu Qiqi was about to cry: "You two, I have really told you everything, I haven't hidden a word."
"What should we do now?" Li Kuo asked.
"Send her over to Lin Miaoke." Xiaofan said calmly.
"Who's Lin Miaoke?" Liu Qiqi asked puzzled.
"Police."
"What? No, I don't want to go, I beg you, don't let the police arrest me, please." Liu Qiqi pleaded bitterly.
"Do you want to die, or do you want to go to the police station and clarify things? Let me tell you, they are worried that you will reveal the truth, and once you do, they won't have any reason to trouble you again. Also, considering the nature of your actions, if it's true, you probably won't face heavy punishment, at most a warning and you'll be out."
"Really?" Liu Qiqi was slightly moved by Xiaofan's explanation.
"Anyway, whether you want to or not, you're going to the police station." Xiaofan said coldly.
"Okay, alright, but, what about the hundred thousand..."
"Just save your life, you're still thinking about money?" Xiaofan said with a glance.
"No, at the police station, can I avoid mentioning the hundred thousand I've taken? That way, I'll give each of you ten thousand to keep my secret, okay?" Liu Qiqi was quite a money grubber, still thinking that any bit of earning was worth it.
"Did you forget what his family does? Money? Ugh." Xiaofan said disdainfully, then called Lin Miaoke, asking her to prepare at the station, as he'd be sending someone over soon.
However, Lin Miaoke was delayed due to something else, so she asked Xiaofan to send her over later.
Li Kuo couldn't pinpoint any breakthrough in Liu Qiqi's words, wondering if inquiring about his father's injustice would be halted here? Why did the Red Butterfly go after his family?
"Hey, young man, I can see it now. Although Li Zhongran's son seems the richest here, it appears your words hold sway. How about we make a deal?" Liu Qiqi quietly approached Xiaofan when she found him alone.
"Is there anything else you're hiding?"
"No, I've said everything I need to say. But look, my job is a model, if this gets out, how can I continue in this industry?" Liu Qiqi pouted.
"What do you mean then?"
"Just don't send me to the police station, in exchange, whatever requests you have, I'll fulfill them."
To Liu Qiqi, even if the guy in front of her wasn't twenty yet, he was still a man, moreover, he didn't seem like an ordinary guy. Maybe following him could help her make strides in her career.
Upon hearing this, Xiaofan eyed Liu Qiqi.
The woman wasn't as alluring as Chen Mei'Er, but there was an undeniable charm to her. If it were Xiaofan from a year ago, he might have been tempted, but even if tempted, he wouldn't have done anything inappropriate.
"How about it? I'll give you a week, just a call away anytime." Liu Qiqi noticed Xiaofan looking at her and drew closer seductively.
"I don't lack women. And I'm serious, if you don't go to the police station, you will truly be in danger."
This woman was amusing, thinking that all men in the world were like those in her circles.
The current Xiaofan had no time to think about love or romance.
"You're so capable, you'll surely protect me."
"No way, I'm barely managing myself, come on, let's go to the police station."
Finding it was about time, Xiaofan didn't bother to argue with such a woman anymore. He and Li San and Ren Ying escorted her to Lin Miaoke. Lei Xiaolei accompanied Li Kuo to buy a set of clothes.
"Why buy clothes?"
"Tomorrow, you'll go to your family's company as the chairman, you have to dress properly."
"Going to the company?" Li Kuo asked, puzzled.
"Yes, whether it's precautionary or strategic foresight, Uncle Li's company must be inherited by you."
"But I'm not mentally prepared yet..."
"If you don't prepare now, when will you? You're not a kid anymore. If you fall, there's no one else to support you. And you must grow to become your mother's pillar."
Upon hearing this, Li Kuo's expression shifted, suddenly realizing, yes, how long will he stay cowardly? Some responsibilities must be shouldered. That was what his father left for him, a choice won with life.
"Don't worry, we're all here to help you."
With those words, Xiaofan led everyone out.
The theory was simple: while Li Kuo couldn't find anything compelling from Liu Qiqi's words, Xiaofan was different. Although he hadn't made a breakthrough, he learned that Liu Qiqi's presence was meant for monitoring the bureau's people causing the bank to temporarily freeze all of Li Zhongran's resources.
Thus, the asset freeze would inevitably affect the company. So Xiaofan's current tasks were twofold: first, to unfreeze the assets regardless of the adversary's plot, which would undoubtedly disrupt their plans; second, to target Li Kuo's family's company where traces are likely to be found.
"Report, Black Tiger Captain, target vehicle spotted, it's currently in the city section."
"Ye Xiaofan?" Black Tiger, who had just arrived in Capital City, didn't expect to track Ye Xiaofan so quickly. It seemed the 1.3 billion was beckoning him.
"Yes, also our operation target Liu Qiqi is there."
"Stop them! They're definitely headed to the police station, don't let them succeed. I'm heading there now. Remember, stop them at all costs."
