de his excitement about collaborating with the Hello Group. He was sure to make a fortune from this project.And once there's a chance to collaborate, there will be a second, third..."But the He Group...Hearing this, He Hanchuan's tightly strung nerve finally relaxed.

It seems like A-wai was taken away by a passerby, she won't be in any danger. He slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, then pressed it down forcefully.

Minister Zou regretted using the walkie-talkie to discuss such an important matter. He had originally thought this would be foolproof, but he didn't expect such a big mistake to happen.

He quickly glanced at He Hanchuan, who seemed thoughtful, his brows furrowed. He had no better solution and gritted his teeth, saying, "How long is 'immediately'!"

Before the other person could answer, He Hanchuan took a step forward and asked, "So the current situation is that Director Zou doesn't know where Huán Wǎn is, right"

Minister Zou tightly gripped the walkie-talkie, his fingertips white with exertion. "So what What if it is What if it isn't"

"If that's the case, there's no need for us to proceed with this transaction." He stared into his eyes, his expression unchanged.

He just analyzed the pros and cons of the situation very clearly, so I believe Minister Zou wouldn't dare to touch him.

Minister Zou's expression changed, but he had no way out. If he killed He Hanchuan now, Commander Zhou would immediately take him away.

Once you're in prison, getting out is like a fairytale!

But if we just let He Hanchuan walk away like this, once the ledger falls into the hands of Commander Zhou or those people sent by the central government, he'll still be in trouble!

Seeing He Hanchuan about to leave, Minister Zou couldn't care less anymore, "Wait!"

He stopped and turned, looking at him coldly.

"Your grandma and your grandpa are here with me. Don't you want to see them" He didn't know how much Yao Shufen and Cui Jun weighed in He Hanchuan's heart, but no matter what, they were family. He Hanchuan shouldn't ignore them!

Minister Zou clapped his hands, signaling to his subordinates to bring Yao Shufen and Cui Jun over.

Two people were tied up with ropes and thrown to the ground, their faces bruised and battered, looking quite miserable.

“I didn't lie to you before, the assassination of HUA wasn't my doing. It was your grandmother and Jiang Qingran who wanted it. I just wanted to take advantage of you breaking up with HUA and feeling down, using the He Group to settle a portion of the money.”

"But I never thought about killing Xiang Wan, because I know your abilities and was afraid that if you didn't stop, you would find me."

When threats and enticements failed to work, Minister Zou began to reason, "General He, let's be honest here. There's no ill will between us. So, hand over the ledger, and you can take your grandmother and Mr. Cui away. We'll call it even."

On the ground, Yao Shufen looked at He Hanchuan with anticipation.

She had something in her mouth, only able to make muffled sounds, looking very agitated.

But He Hanchuan merely stared at them coldly, without a word.

"Commander Zhou asked you why you gave him the ledger. You could have said I threatened you, it wouldn't bring you any harm." Seeing that he wasn't very convinced, Minister Zou became a little anxious.

He retracted his gaze and said indifferently, “They're in your hands now. Do with them as you please.”

After that, he turned and left.

"Has Director He made up his mind She's your blood-related grandmother!" Department Head Zou frowned and shouted.

But there was no response at all. He Hanchuan didn't even stop his steps.

Bang!

The muffled sound of a dull thud echoed through the chamber.

He stopped, but did not turn back.

At this, Minister Zou let out a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that these two people still held some weight in He Hanchuan's eyes. "That shot just grazed Mr. Cui's leg. If you don't agree, I can only kill him first, then your grandmother."

These two people knew too much, they were just a burden to him.

The only purpose is to capture Kazuki Hankawa.

However, just as he thought He Hanchuan would relent, the latter walked towards the door without looking back.

"Damn it!" roared Minister Zou, aiming his gun at Yao Shufen's heart and pulling the trigger. But just as the bullet was about to fire, he flinched, and the bullet hit her left arm instead.

Then, a shot pierced Choi Jun's forehead.

Cui Junwei's mouth hung open, his pupils dilated and scattered, before he died instantly.

Whether to let He Hanchuan go, there were no good results either way. On either side was death. Minister Zou's face turned grim as he raised his pistol and aimed it at He Hanchuan, who was about to reach the doorknob.

After killing He Hanchuan, he immediately left the country!

He clenched his face, slowly pulling the trigger.

But at the same time—

"Came back with that car of A-wei's! They ran down another road to lose the cops, took a bit of a detour! Chief, should we get A-wei up here now"

Through the walkie-talkie, a man's excited voice crackled to life.

Cui's pupils shrank, he hurriedly moved the gun away, the bullet went astray, leaving a hole in the door.

As long as it's in his hands, he has better choices!

He didn't need to say it, He Hanchuan turned and glanced at him before walking back.

"Bring the man up here immediately." Minister Zou tossed his gun onto the table, his voice noticeably brighter.

He sat down on the sofa, took a sip of water, and smiled: “It was truly a treacherous journey with no way forward, but then suddenly, like willows blossoming in a hidden garden, there is light! What do you think, Mr. He”

He stood before him, eyes lowered in silence.

Upon seeing this, Minister Zou's mood improved even more. He deliberately said, "Look at me, I forgot that this is a lifeline for me, but a dead end for Mr. He!"

He continued to ignore him, just sitting on the sofa with his fingers tapping unconsciously on his leg.

Every time he gets irritable, he always has this little gesture.

“To say it’s a dead end isn’t quite right,” said Minister Zou, a smile gracing his face and eyes. “Give me the ledger, and there will be no loss for you. But if you give it to Commander Zhou, I might as well consider this my last day on earth.”

He Lanchuan coldly twitched the corner of his mouth, unwilling to say more, "Then let's do as we agreed before."

As long as he can safely bring her to the evening, he doesn't care about anything else.

"I think we need to make some changes," said Minister Zou.

He frowned slightly.

"Don't misunderstand," Director Zou said. "As long as you give me the ledger, you can take Miss Xiang and your grandmother away."

He spared Yao Shufen's life this time, she will surely remember his kindness.

He's only weak against Yua, but Yao Shufen has too many weaknesses. As long as he controls her, he can use her to monitor He Hanchuan and the He Group.

"No need, you can do whatever you want with her." He Hanchuan didn't even glance at Yao Shufen.

Minister Zou's smile froze for a moment before he smoothly said, "When you were a teenager, she extorted a large sum of money from the He family using you. If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't be able to forgive her grandmother either. I understand, I do."

On the ground lay Cui Jun's body, Yao Shufen beside him sobbing uncontrollably. But the two of them seemed to hear nothing throughout it all.

Minister Zou beckoned two subordinates over, instructing them to take the deranged Yao Shufen and the still-warm corpse of Cui Junwen away.

The bloodstains on the ground were quickly cleaned up, as if nothing had ever happened here.
