"It's a call from your dad..." That calm voice resounded.
After Ye Fan said that, the entire lobby fell silent again.
This time, there was seriously no other sound.
Even the air seemed to stand still.
Everyone went numb at these words.
And they all looked at Ye Fan like Ye Fan was an idiot.
Li Lu-Bin nearly fell off his chair.
"Oh my goodness! Xiao-Hong, is your friend nuts? Why is he still spouting nonsense now? Doesn't he think he's in enough trouble as it is?"
Li Lu-Bin was going to faint from fright.
Xue Ming-Zhi was already pointing a gun at Ye Fan and Li Lu-Bin thought that Ye Fan would surrender by now.
But this stupid Ye Fan refused to surrender!
What was this boy trying to do?
Did he really have to die before he learnt his lesson?
"I must have been blind earlier to try and defend this idiot."
Li Lu-Bin was really frightened to tears.
Not because of how crazy Ye Fan was, but because he was worried about getting implicated.
If an onlooker like Li Lu-Bin already thought like that, imagine how furious Xue Ming-Zhi was.
"You little punk, so you really have a death wish, huh?" Xue Ming-Zhi clenched his fists hard and his fingers were digging deep into his flesh from anger.
His eyes were grim as he gritted his teeth.
He looked at Ye Fan as if he was an eagle about to swoop down on its prey.
But Ye Fan ignored him and continued sitting where he was as he used one hand to hold his tea and used the other to hold the phone.
"Hello, is this Dragon Master? Han got me to call you, where would be a good place to meet?" an older and respectful voice came through the other end of the phone.
"You're Longyang, right? I was about to call you. There's someone here who claims to be the head of the Xue family called Xue Ming-Zhi, and he wants to come over here to collect my dead body,” said Ye Fan calmly into the phone.
On the other end of the line, an older man was standing in front of his bungalow with many men by his side.
He was calling while preparing to leave the house.
But after hearing what Ye Fan said, the old man frowned.
What?
Xue Ming-Zhi?
The head of the Xue family?
The old man was shocked but didn't immediately reply. Instead, he looked at the men around him.
"Ming-Xin, where's Ming-Zhi? Where is he now?" the old man asked his family members with a grim face with a hand cupped over the phone.
"Uncle Ren-Yang, where else could Ming-Zhi be? He must be settling work matters in the office. When I came back from the office earlier, I saw him still inside the office working. You told us not to go out and not to make trouble or stick out for the time being, and we remembered that well," said Xue Ming-Xin with a smile.
