661 He’s Really Sober
The skinny man suddenly looked at him in confusion. “Who exactly are you? How did you know my surname was Ning? Why did you save me?”
This person was very vigilant and asked three questions at once.
“I am Ye Feng.”
Ye Feng only answered his first question. He believed that when he heard this name, the other two questions would be easily solved.
As expected, the skinny man’s eyes were filled with killing intent. “You are Ye Feng? You were the one who beat up Gao Xianglan and sent Gao Junming to the detention center? You actually dare to appear in front of me? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?”
Ye Feng felt a killing intent that was almost tangible, but he was still as warm as a spring breeze. “Mr. Ning is really loyal. Gao Junming is about to kill you, but you are still thinking for him?”
When the skinny man heard this, the killing intent on his body immediately disappeared without a trace. In its place was the desolation of a stray dog.
“Yeah, I’ve worked for him for so many years, why would he want to kill me?”
“When the cunning rabbit dies, the dog will be cooked. When the birds are gone, the good bow will be hidden. This is a saying that has never changed. Perhaps you know too many secrets, so he doesn’t feel safe.”
Ye Feng did not give him any face at all, directly comparing him to a lackey.
The skinny man did not mind. He just laughed bitterly. “Yes, perhaps this is the fate of a lackey?”
Ye Feng looked at him calmly. “I might be able to help you.”
The skinny man’s eyes narrowed. “Help me? How?”
Ye Feng looked at his sick face. “Your illness is beyond cure. I’m afraid you don’t have much time left.”
The skinny man’s eyes dimmed. “I know.”
Ye Feng suddenly changed the topic. “But I have some medical knowledge, I can help you. Although I can’t guarantee that you’ll be able to recover, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to return to your previous state.”
The skinny man’s face immediately revealed a hopeful look. He grabbed his shoulder tightly. “Is what you said true? Can you really cure my illness?”
Ye Feng said confidently, “You should have heard that I have a good relationship with Luo Jingyuan. The reason is that I saved his father’s life. You should have confidence in my medical skills.”
The skinny man hurriedly nodded. “I have confidence, I have confidence…”
As he spoke, he seemed to have suddenly realized something and his smile froze. “You wouldn’t save me for no reason, right? What do you want me to do?”
Ye Feng immediately gave him a thumbs up. “Mr. Ning is really clear-headed. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. You also know the enmity between Gao Junming and me. I want to get rid of him, and I need your help.”
The skinny man gradually regained his composure. “You want me to help you kill Gao Junming?”
Ye Feng shook his head. “I’m not asking you to kill him. I’m asking you to help me collect evidence of his crimes. You’ve been with him for so many years and specially helped him deal with some shady business. You should have a lot of dirt on him, right?”
The skinny man immediately nodded. “Of course. I have a lot of evidence that can kill him. I can give it all to you. Since he is heartless, don’t blame me for being unjust.”
Ye Feng and Chen Xuan were delighted. After a few twists and turns, they finally saw hope.
“That’s great. Where is the evidence now?”
“It’s at my place. I’ll take you to get it.”
The skinny man made a ‘please’ gesture.
Ye Feng and Chen Xuan did not suspect anything. They immediately turned around and walked out.
Right at this moment, something unexpected happened.
The skinny man behind the two suddenly jumped up and attacked. His sharp dagger stabbed toward Ye Feng’s neck.
Although Ye Feng was immersed in joy, he was still on his guard. He sensed the killing intent behind him. He quickly grabbed Chen Xuan and avoided it by a hair’s breadth.
Then, he turned around and stared coldly at the skinny man. “What do you mean?”
“You want me to betray Mr. Gao with just a few words?” The skinny man grinned. “What wishful thinking!”
Chen Xuan looked at him incredulously. “Gao Junming is going to kill you, yet you’re still thinking about him?”
The skinny man looked at the two of them with disdain.
“My loyalty to Mr. Gao is beyond your imagination. He gave me my life. If he wants it, he can take it anytime. I was just dissatisfied with the methods he used. As long as he told me clearly, I could return this life to him without hesitation.”
Chen Xuan was completely speechless. She didn’t expect there to be such a blindly loyal person in the world. He wanted his life, but he was still grateful to him?
Even Ye Feng could not understand the thoughts of such a person.
According to normal people’s thinking, when they knew that someone was trying to harm them, no matter who the other party was, they would hate them to the core.
He had almost fallen into the other party’s trap because of this habitual thinking.
“What a loyal dog. Since you’re so loyal to someone who wants to kill you, then I have nothing to say. Just pretend that we’ve never been here.”
Ye Feng finished speaking and was about to leave with Chen Xuan.
“Since you’re here, then leave your life behind.”
The skinny man did not plan to let the two of them leave. He immediately brandished the short blade in his hand and attacked Ye Feng.
