Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Really Want to Meet This Person_1

Shen Dong examined the information about the Paqi Sanctuary again, and his face grew grim.

The leader of the Paqi Sanctuary, Victor, had actually sent an ace assassin to kill him.

With the capabilities he possessed now, he wasn’t afraid of any ace assassin.

However, he wasn’t sure whether the assassin would target someone close to him.

After some thought, Shen Dong dialed Victor’s phone number.

Victor’s phone number, of course, had been found through inquiry.

Soon, the call was connected.

Shen Dong got straight to the point, "Mr. Victor, I hope you withdraw the assassin Henry you dispatched and refuse to accept this mission."

Although Shang Yinghao had said that besides the employer actively canceling the mission, or death, or evidence proving the employer was unable to pay the remaining fee, the Paqi Sanctuary would give up on a mission.

But Shen Dong still wanted to try and see if he could convince Victor to give up on the mission voluntarily.

Victor furrowed his brows, "Who are you?"

Shen Dong replied, "I am Shen Dong."

Victor was startled, "You’re Shen Dong?"

He was genuinely astonished. How had his own phone number become known to the target?

Moreover, the target was asking him to withdraw the assassin Henry he had sent and to give up on the mission.

That meant his actions were known.

How did Shen Dong find out? Could he have been wiretapped?

His mind was filled with question marks.

Shen Dong said, "Yes, I hope you’ll do as I say, or you will most certainly regret it."

Victor’s mind raced, then he scoffed coldly, "Shen Dong, you don’t yet have the clout to make me do something I don’t want to do. As for the regrets you mention, they will be yours!"

Though he didn’t know how Shen Dong had come to know his phone number or that he had sent Henry, he believed that once Henry entered Dragon Country, he would definitely find an opportunity to deal with Shen Dong.

He was the leader of the Paqi Sanctuary; would he back down just because of someone’s words?

How could he continue to be the leader if he did that?

Shen Dong asked, "So it seems you don’t wish to give up?"

"Correct," Victor nodded, and after some contemplation, feeling that Shen Dong seemed to have far-reaching powers, continued, "Mr. Shen, since you know someone wants you dead, you should resolve the problem at its root, eliminate the person who issued the mission, instead of asking me to give up the mission. You should know that even if I don’t take this mission, that person will find someone else to do it."

He was just making money by doing business. If Shen Dong could indeed take care of the person who issued the mission, then fostering a relationship with Shen Dong was not a bad idea to him.

Shen Dong furrowed his brows; he had indeed not considered this point before.

It was true, if Victor didn’t do it, Qian Haoming would definitely find someone else.

This was a bit troublesome.

It seemed he would have to start with Qian Haoming.

But Qian Haoming was very clean, having never committed any illegal or criminal acts.

Even the contact with Victor was made through Qian Haoming’s lawyer, Chris.

Shen Dong had absolutely no way of dealing with Qian Haoming.

He couldn’t possibly go about secretly slaughtering the man.

It was not something Shen Dong would do.

It appeared that he would have to think of another method.

Gathering his thoughts, Shen Dong said, "Mr. Victor, I can tell you clearly, no matter who you send or how many people you send, it will be futile. Whoever comes will not return. Are you really willing to bear such a loss?"

Victor’s brow furrowed.

This Shen Dong had a big mouth and indeed seemed to have far-reaching powers.

He even knew about the assassin Henry he had dispatched.

It was truly inconceivable.

He had no idea how Shen Dong managed to do it.

Since I’ve already sent them out, there’s no reason to call them back.

Victor could only say, "Mr. Shen, I trust my people."

Shen Dong said, "Good, then I won’t say any more."

Shen Dong ended the call.

They still needed to start with Qian Haoming, but there was no immediate solution.

All they could do was keep an eye on Victor’s side.

If Victor suffered heavy losses, he probably wouldn’t send more men.

Without results from Victor’s side, Qian Haoming, wanting to save Qian Xingchang and Qian Haoxuan, would definitely think of new methods.

They could only wait and see if they could find any flaws based on Qian Haoming’s new moves.

...

Noon.

Qian Haoming went to Hai City International Airport to pick up his girlfriend, Annie.

On the way home, Qian Haoming apologized, "Annie, I’m sorry, I caused your family to lose a network of connections."

He had already told Annie about Ye Zhenghao’s kidnapping the day before.

Annie didn’t blame him and even comforted him by saying it was just one person, nothing to worry about.

But he knew in the Luoke Family, there would surely be many who expressed dissatisfaction towards him.

Annie defending him like this must have put her under a lot of pressure.

"Dear, didn’t I already tell you? It’s okay," Annie said with an easy smile, changing the subject, "How are your father and brother doing now? You mentioned yesterday you were thinking of another way, but it hasn’t resulted yet, what is it?"

Qian Haoming hadn’t told Annie about hiring a hitman, mainly because he felt it wasn’t safe to discuss over the phone.

Now that Annie directly asked, Qian Haoming naturally answered, "I followed Chris’s advice and he contacted Paqi Sanctuary, Paqi Sanctuary sent people from their Dragon Country branch to handle it, but they failed..."

He briefly described the situation, including adding another ten million last night.

He also briefly explained Shen Dong’s circumstances.

Annie wasn’t shocked to hear Qian Haoming had hired a hitman.

In families like the Luoke Family, she had seen too much of the dark side.

Many people would stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

Hiring hitmen to kill was just a very common strategy amongst them.

She was more interested in Shen Dong, expressing some surprise, "This Shen Dong is so formidable?"

Qian Haoming nodded, "Yes, I didn’t expect him to be this powerful either."

Annie’s lips curled up in a small smile, "Hearing you talk about him like this, I really want to meet this person."

Initially, what attracted her to Qian Haoming was his talent.

Clearly, from what Qian Haoming described, Shen Dong was even more outstanding than him.

She was very interested in such a peer.

Qian Haoming obviously understood this, and a sense of crisis flooded his heart.

Annie seemed to have noticed what was on Qian Haoming’s mind and laughed, "Dear, don’t worry, when I say I want to meet Shen Dong, there’s no other implication, just pure admiration for an outstanding peer."

Qian Haoming gave a small smile, "I know."

In fact, he was aware that in their relationship, he was at a disadvantage.

After all, Annie was the beloved daughter of this generation’s head of the Luoke Family.

There were not many who could stop Annie from doing what she wanted.

Initially, when Annie chose him as her boyfriend, many in the Luoke Family opposed it.

Yet Annie still did as she pleased, squashing all opposition.

If Annie truly showed romantic interest in Shen Dong, he would be powerless, only able to passively accept and unable to do anything.

Annie changed the subject again, "Before the results from Paqi Sanctuary come out, take me on a good tour around Dragon Country; it’s my first time here after all."

Qian Haoming naturally nodded with a smile, agreeing, "Of course, no problem."
