The thing that Fang Xia was most worried about now was that either Fang Wei thought he was dead, or that he had embarrassed the clan and was no longer eligible to be the head of the family. That would be the end of him.
"What can you give me?" Jiang Ning stopped in his footsteps and looked at Fang Xia.
Fang Xia grit his teeth and the look in his eyes changed. "You want my aunt, Fang Ran? I can help you get her out!"
He knew that if he wanted to negotiate, he had to offer something that Jiang Ning was interested in. Otherwise there was nothing to discuss.
"Help me?"
"No, I'm helping myself!" Fang Xia immediately shook his head and rephrased it. "Fang Ran is my aunt, my biological aunt. She's suffered unfairly and was imprisoned for the past twenty years, and I've wanted to get her out for a long time!"
"I'll get back and get her out. But you have to make sure I return to the Fang house safely. How's that?"
"Why should I believe you?" Jiang Ning couldn't help but laugh. "I will definitely get her out. Whether you're in the picture or not doesn't matter.”
"Are you going to do that by fighting your way in?" Fang Xia grit his teeth. "The Fang family might not be the most powerful among the reclusive clans, but those forefathers of the clan are not to be trifled with! Even if you are really powerful, what about the rest with you? Aren't you afraid that they might die?"
"Jiang Ning, if you have a better way of settling this issue, then why don't you use it? I can guarantee that my aunt will be sent to Donghai in one good piece, so why don't you take it?" said Fang Xia. "What I want is to become the head of the Fang clan! My enemy isn't you, and I'm sure we both know that very well."
Jiang Ning hadn't thought about whether they would become enemies in the future, but Fang Xia had already decided never to become enemies with Jiang Ning. This crazy guy was way too terrifying.
Jiang Ning didn't say anything.
Fang Xia started getting anxious.
"I'll swear upon it!" He put up three fingers. "Given your prowess, if I go back on my word, you can kill me very easily."
