That night, Poison Dragon immediately checked into another five - star hotel. Two black - suited bodyguards looked a bit nervous. "Boss, maybe we shouldn't stay here," one of them said. It's a five - star hotel! Isn't it too high - profile?
"What's wrong?" Poison Dragon shot a sidelong glance at the two bodyguards. "If you're so timid, how can you follow me?" He, Poison Dragon, had seen all kinds of grand scenes in Italy. How could he be intimidated by this situation?
"It's not that, boss..." The two bodyguards were in a hurry to explain. "What I mean is..."
"I know what you mean, but trust me, nothing will go wrong," Poison Dragon said.
The two bodyguards looked at each other for a while. They had no way to go against Poison Dragon's words.
Poison Dragon changed out of his sweaty clothes and walked into the bathroom. It seemed that Su Yuze had already noticed him. Finally, they were going to meet. He was already getting excited.
...
"Boss Su, Poison Dragon has checked into another five - star hotel." This Poison Dragon was really bold! An ordinary person would have hidden in a dark corner after a near - assassination, but Poison Dragon just openly exposed his whereabouts. "Boss Su, Poison Dragon is being so arrogant. Is he provoking us?"
"I think..." Su Yuze gave a faint smile. "He should have guessed my intention."
"Huh?" The black - suited man was a bit confused. "Since he already knows your intention, why does he still..." Why doesn't he leave? Boss Su had kindly wanted to let Poison Dragon go and didn't want a head - on confrontation because neither side would benefit. But Poison Dragon just didn't seem to understand and still stayed here.
Su Yuze was even more certain now that Poison Dragon's target was him. "I see. You can go first."
"Yes."
The next day, Su Yuze called Poison Dragon. In English, he asked, "Poison Dragon?"
"It's me," Poison Dragon replied. Then he also asked, "Su Yuze?" The only person who could know his hotel phone number and call him by his name right away was Su Yuze.
"What's your purpose?" Su Yuze didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
"You," Poison Dragon said.
"I don't think it's just about doing business with me, right?" If it was just about business, Poison Dragon wouldn't have tried to kill Yu Feng.
Poison Dragon laughed. "Business? That's not my job." Since both sides had made their intentions clear, why not meet directly? "Su Yuze, shall we... have a talk?"
Su Yuze thought for a moment. "Okay."
"Good. At night, at..."
After hanging up the phone, Su Yuze stood up to pour himself a glass of water. He saw Su Rou standing behind him. She must have heard the whole conversation.
"Xiaorou'er..."
"Hmm?" Su Rou looked at him. "I heard that Poison Dragon is a Mafia godfather. Are you... really going?" Su Rou was a bit worried.
"If we don't solve this, Yu Feng won't let it go easily," Su Yuze said as he stroked Su Rou's head. "Stay at home obediently and wait for me to come back."
Su Rou grabbed his hand. "I'll go too."
"What for?" Su Yuze frowned slightly. "You're not allowed to go. I'll be back soon."
"Why did he deliberately invite you out at night? What does that mean?" Couldn't they talk during the day? Who knew what Poison Dragon was up to in the dead of night?
Su Yuze sighed. "No. People in the underworld like to do business at night." It was not only because it was easier to avoid being noticed at night, but also... it was easier to kill people.
"So... sometimes when you went out at night before, you were actually doing business?" Su Rou asked.
"Ah..." Su Yuze nodded. You could put it that way. "Xiaorou'er, I promise I'll be back soon. He won't touch me for now. Don't worry." After all, this was T City.
"... " Su Rou was a bit hesitant. She really wanted to go with him, but in her current state, she would just be a burden instead of a help. "Okay." She gave in. "But if anything happens to you, I won't live alone."
Hearing this, the smile on Su Yuze's lips grew wider. "What about the child?"
"Of course, the child will be with us." How could they be alone on the way to the underworld?
Su Yuze patted her on the butt. "You're so cruel." But he liked it.
When night fell, Su Yuze and Poison Dragon both arrived at the appointed place on time. When Su Yuze saw Poison Dragon, his eyes flickered. "It's you." The man he had met in the hotel once, and he seemed to have seen him before that.
"It's me," Poison Dragon nodded. He had a similarly tall build and a king - like aura. "Do you still remember that day when you bumped into me?"
Su Yuze always had a good memory. With Poison Dragon's reminder, he remembered. When he went to a meeting with Xiao Ka, he had bumped into a man on the way. It was this guy.
After they sat down, a small - time hoodlum came up to pour them tea and said obsequiously, "Please enjoy." Then he stepped back.
Su Yuze glanced at the hoodlum. "You're an old acquaintance of You Feng." The man just now was You Feng's subordinate. Su Yuze wasn't asking; it was a statement.
"It seems you've done a thorough investigation," Poison Dragon said with a smile as he took a sip of the tea in front of him. "What else do you know? Let's hear it and see if your investigation is accurate."
Su Yuze shook his head faintly. "That's all. I'm not interested in you. I just want to know why you wanted to kill Yu Feng."
"Yu Feng..." Poison Dragon thought for a moment. "He bumped into me before."
So, it was just for such a small reason? Su Yuze's face turned cold. "It seems the Mafia godfather Poison Dragon has such a narrow mind."
Poison Dragon shrugged non - committally. "In this line of work, how many people have broad minds? Aren't you the same? Your woman, that girl named Su Rou, is from the American Wen Group, right? Didn't you also hide this for so many years for her sake?" Everyone was selfish when it came to their own affairs.
When Su Yuze heard the name "Su Rou", his hand holding the teacup tightened suddenly, but he quickly relaxed. "You're right."
Poison Dragon looked at him. After a while, he said, "Su Yuze, are you really ignorant or just pretending?" After 26 years, hadn't he noticed anything about his own origin?
Su Yuze looked at him, confused. "What don't I know?"
Poison Dragon raised his eyebrows, and his tone became a bit louder. "You're not from the Su family."
