Chapter 87 - 86: Snake King Appears (Part 1)
"What’s with the big blowup?"
Suddenly, a voice came from the lounge next to the VIP room.
Mr. Zhu’s gaze sharpened instantly, and he waved his hand, "Everyone leave, no one is allowed to enter without my permission."
"Yes."
After the bodyguards left, a man slowly stepped out of the lounge. However, his attire was rather unusual; adorned in a red trench coat, a hood over his head, and hands tucked in his pockets, his entire figure was concealed. The only identifiable feature was his height - nearly one meter ninety, his head almost touching the door frame.
The man walked over to the sofa, picked up a bottle of red wine from the table and remarked, "’82 Lafite, Zhu Hong, you really know how to enjoy it."
Zhu Hong’s face turned steely, "What are you trying to say?"
"I just want to remind you, the money for the banquet, as well as these wines, who paid for them. The support from above was strong when you returned to the country, giving you everything you wanted, but don’t forget your mission. The issue with the little girl hasn’t been settled and you’ve lost so many men, this made people from the top quite unhappy. However, I can understand you, He Ziyun is indeed a tough nut to crack, so I pleaded on your behalf in front of them, urging them to grant you some more time."
"Rest assured, I will handle that matter as soon as possible."
"I believe you’ll take it seriously. But remember, your task isn’t just that. Setting aside the little girl for a moment, the matter regarding Nanrong Wanqing must be resolved soon, the people on top are getting impatient, and have urged me several times. Zhu Hong, you voluntarily took on this mission at the beginning, claiming you could get the thing in a short time. Yet, nearly half a month has passed without any progress. Don’t blame me for urging you, people above have no patience, and neither do I. I’m giving you one more month, if you can’t take care of it by then, then I’ll have to personally intervene."
