The Target Always Thinks That I Like Him!
/ The Target Always Thinks That I Like Him! Chapter 4 part9
“What could possibly happen?” Gu Hai Sheng lit a cigar and held it without smoking.
Wisps of smoke curled up and rose into the air as he blew at it. With a careless expression, he spoke, “The triad hasn't been able to successfully reform in the past. Many people continued to place great importance on this disease called the Jianghu code of brotherhood. If we continue on this path, it's only a matter of time before something bad happens. Now that I've taken over the reins, I will completely eliminate every business from the gray areas. Although it's a little risky, once some time for recovery is allowed, we will at least be able to do our business in peace.”
Shen Ze waved a hand to disperse the smoke, his face unchanging, “If you continue to play around like this, I'm afraid it's impossible to do business peacefully. You are more likely to be arrested, instead.”
“Tsk, I say, why are your words so despicable, huh?” Gu Hai Sheng stubbed his cigar and spoke in annoyance, “Whatever, a young master like you shouldn't recklessly play around in my area. Hurry up and go back. Refusing to study obediently like a proper student and causing trouble instead.”
Shen Ze stood up, shooting him a look. “Someone is after you?”
Gu Hai Sheng's movements stiffened before he frowned, “What are you blindly guessing for? Your relationship with the triad isn't deep, so you shouldn't get involved.”
“I heard you're old acquaintances with that Mr. Lin?”
“...Who did you hear that from? Utter nonsense.”
“You said so yourself, that time when you were plastering yourself all over him.”
“Cough, you probably remember it wrongly.” Having his bluffs exposed by his younger junior, Gu Hai Sheng revealed an awkward expression.
“But recently, you do not stick to him, and even… is it because you're afraid of implicating him and therefore trying to draw a line between the two of you?” Shen Ze asked.
“My word, you're just a little rascal. Why do you know so much? Scram, scram, scram!” Gu Hai Sheng was growing impatient and directly stood up to push him out.
Shen Ze looked at him deeply for a while before turning to leave.
After leaving the club, he had just slipped into a small road along the street when he saw a familiar looking car.
Thinking it was Shen Zheng Duo who had discovered he had skipped classes and came to catch him, Shen Ze cautiously retreated, intending to make a run for it. However, the window suddenly wound down, revealing Xiang Han's smiling face as he waved, “Elder brother.”
Shen Ze inexplicably sighed in relief and entered the car. “Why are you here?”
Xiang Han replied, “I saw you leaving earlier and guessed you must have come here. So, I told Uncle Zhang to wait here for a bit.”
Shen Ze glanced at the driver when Xiang Han continued talking in a low voice, “Don't worry, I already told uncle Zhang that you came for tuition, he won't expose us.”
Of course he wouldn't, because Xiang Han had already used his spiritual force.
Shen Ze nodded, reclining against the window. No one knew what he was thinking about.
Xiang Han saw this and turned back to look at the club, attempting to probe, “Elder brother, what are you thinking about? Does it have something to do with Mr Gu?”
Looking at him, Shen Ze deliberately asked, “How did you know?”
Xiang Han coughed lightly before speaking, “I can tell Mr Gu doesn't look like an ordinary person, and is most likely a frequent visitor at the police station. My mom said that the officers are getting stricter, so he'll definitely run into trouble.”
Saying this, he emphasised once more, “Elder brother, don't come here anymore in the future. You still need to attend classes, what if your testimonials suffer because of this?”
Shen Ze seemed to have sunk into deep thought for a while before suddenly speaking, “Brother Gu saved me before. Now that he's in trouble, I can't ignore it.”
There was still such a thing? Xiang Han couldn't help but ask his system, who, after flipping through the world's storyline, was still unable to find any information. In the end, they browsed the web and finally found some lingering evidence.
[When Shen Ze was ten, he was reported missing for a period of time. Xue Ling was the one who made the report at that time but afterwards, he returned home by himself and even assisted the police in raiding an underground child-trafficking ring. He is probably referring to this.] System told him after scanning through the information.
Xiang Han hummed in response. He had already learnt from Shen Ze and Shen Zheng Duo's conversations that Shen Ze knew Gu Hai Sheng from four years ago.
However, from Shen Ze's words, he seemed to know that something would happen to Gu Hai Sheng.
Since Shen Ze knew, there wasn't any reason for Gu Hai Sheng to be unaware. The last time at the police station, Gu Hai Sheng had been the one to expose Shen Ze's identity which then led to Shen Zheng Duo knowing that matter and therefore, started to keep a strict watch over him.
Most likely, Gu Hai Sheng didn't want to drag Shen Ze down with him. But from what he could see, Shen Ze obviously didn't buy it.
No way, he couldn't let Shen Ze be implicated.
Xiang Han pondered for a moment before speaking, “Elder brother, you're still a student and can't do anything at all. Even if you do, the extent of your help will definitely be limited. Since Mr Gu saved you before, you should talk to Uncle Shen, he'll definitely help you.”
If this was in the past, with the terrible relationship between Shen Ze and Shen Zheng Duo, there was no way Shen Ze would even consider asking him for help. However, now that their relationship had been mended somewhat; and Shen Ze's heart no longer held extreme reclusive tendencies, he was much easier to talk to.
Moreover, before he suggested this, he had secretly utilised some spiritual force. Therefore, the light in his eyes continuously flickered.
Shen Ze stared at him in a daze, but after a moment, he suddenly said, “Did your eyes cramp or something? What are you blinking so much for?”
Once he said so, he directly turned to look outside the window. He would rather die than admit that in that moment, he had inexplicably been entranced by the light in Xiang Han's eyes and he actually felt as if the evil little guy was actually quite attractive.
“C-Cramp?” Xiang Han gnashed his teeth in anger. What made him more furious was that his spiritual force had failed.
Big A couldn't help pitying him, [Mr Xiang, the general's spiritual force is at S-level, while you're only an F+... cough, cough.]
