Chapter 2041 - 2030: Another Invitation
The telescope was aimed at Ning Fan's suite, clearly indicating that his check-in information had been leaked.Around midnight, Mary and Vivian returned, carrying a faint smell of alcohol.
Knowing Fabio was lurking, Tang Xiaoyue naturally wouldn't go out; the women just stayed at the hotel's clubhouse.
"Mary, we're leaving today."
Ning Fan had already booked the tickets.
"Now?"
"Yes, today."
Mary hesitated, "Should we tell Miss Tang?"
"Absolutely not."
"That's not really a good idea."
Tang Xiaoyue had left a pretty good impression on Mary, and within a day they had become friends.
"I just don't want her to know, which is why I chose to leave at night."
Ning Fan continued, "I want to take care of Fabio tonight."
Now that they were certain he was an enemy, whether they were important figures or small roles, Ning Fan wouldn't let a single one go.
"So you're afraid she'll find out about it?"
"Yes."
If it weren't for Tang Xiaoyue's "meddling" today, Fabio would have been taken care of long ago.
"But when Fabio's death is announced tomorrow and you guys are missing, Miss Tang will definitely be suspicious."
Ning Fan chuckled, "That's her problem. Anyway, there's no evidence."
"Let me go with you guys then."
"No need. Just a small local gang, I'll handle it along the way."
"Alright then."
Mary wasn't worried about Ning Fan encountering danger, otherwise that would be the biggest joke.
"As for you and Miss Tang, decide for yourself. If there's any trouble, just let me know."
"Got it."
Mary smiled, "What trouble could there be? Thanks to you, I'm a rich woman now."
The winnings, except for some pocket money, mostly went to Mary.
That's also why Ning Fan was determined to eliminate Fabio.
If he found out Ning Fan wasn't around, Fabio would surely target Mary.
Ning Fan was worried that Mary might expose the ghost's identity amidst the harassment.
After some instructions, Ning Fan and Vivian directly left the room.
Seeing the two, a servant in the hallway smiled, "Good evening, sir, madam."
Ning Fan nodded and headed directly towards the elevator.
Just before the elevator doors closed, he heard the servant from earlier speaking haltingly,
"That man entered the elevator... went to the first floor... only the blonde woman with him... the other one still in the room."
"Truly everywhere!"
Ning Fan smirked to himself, then asked with a smile, "Vivian, are you scared?"
"Scared of what?"
"Killing people."
Noticing the disdain in Vivian's eyes, Ning Fan silently berated himself for being foolish. She was a pro at murder and arson; there was no way she'd be afraid.
Reaching the hotel lobby, Ning Fan noticed several sneaky glances directed at him.
When Ning Fan exited the main entrance, some of them were on their phones, while others quietly followed.
Outside the hotel entrance, taxis were always waiting, and despite the late hour, it wasn't too difficult to get one.
Once the taxi departed, two cars followed behind like shadows.
"Here's fine. No need to look further."
Perhaps seeing the hundred-dollar bill in hand, the driver kindly advised, "Sir, it's not safe here, especially at night. There's no surveillance, and robberies happen often. Why not go another mile?"
"Thanks, but no need."
Ning Fan smiled; he needed an unsafe place. Safety would make things harder.
Seeing Ning Fan insist on getting out, the driver could only leave reluctantly.
Soon after the taxi left, a bright white light suddenly flashed in the dim-lit environment.
The quiet space was immediately filled with the screeching sound of tires against the ground.
"Damn high beam drivers."
Ning Fan squinted at the scene in front of him; a jeep was barreling towards them like an angry bull.
"Kid, didn't expect we'd meet again, huh?"
The scar-faced man from before looked at Ning Fan and Vivian proudly.
Nighttime seemed to be their domain; compared to daytime, the scar-faced man was much more arrogant, openly waving a handgun at Ning Fan while his eyes roamed over Vivian.
The constant movement in his throat completely exposed his sordid thoughts.
"What do you want to do?"
Ning Fan's face was full of panic, as he glanced back, only to find their car blocked by another.
"Kid, come with us. This time you won't be as lucky as you were during the day."
As the scar-faced man finished speaking, several men stepped out of the car, each holding a gun.
"Hey girl, come with us."
Seeing a hand reaching towards Vivian, just as Ning Fan hesitated about making a move, the scar-faced man stopped it, "Idiot, she's the boss's guest."
Having been with Fabio for a while, the scar-faced man already guessed the boss had his eyes on this blonde beauty.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been ordered to bring her over safely.
"Hey kid, you see that? We don't want to hurt you, but you'd better comply."
"Alright. But you must promise not to harm us."
"Don't worry. The boss is waiting to host you at the villa."
As he spoke, the scar-faced man's greedy eyes couldn't help but scan Vivian with expectation.
If nothing unexpected happened, it wouldn't be long before he could savor some himself.
Vivian tilted her head, asking, "What's this creep looking at?"
"Uh..."
Ning Fan truly didn't know how to respond, so he vaguely said, "Ignore it and just do as they say."
"Can I kill him?"
Vivian asked seriously, just waiting for Ning Fan to nod.
Ning Fan shook his head, "Don't say such things."
Making a move now would complicate things later.
"Kid, you're quite smart."
The scar-faced man said with a sly smile, "Don't worry, little beauty, I won't harm you."
"Heh... you're not smart at all."
Ning Fan looked at the scar-faced man, thinking the moment he saw Fabio, he'd take care of him first.
Calling him "kid" so flippantly; did they really think he had a good temper?
"You two, get in the car."
No searching, no restraint; the scar-faced man wasn't worried Ning Fan might try anything.
Once in the car, a clever henchman attempted to squeeze against Vivian, but was slapped away by the scar-faced man, who sternly reprimanded, "Move aside."
This was the woman the boss had set his sights on, and if these lackeys got any advantage, the first to suffer would be the scar-faced man himself.
With the scar-faced man in control, the little gangsters could only huddle together.
This left Ning Fan in a state of discomfort, forcing him to use Internal Breathing to avoid their body odor.
Once in the car, the scar-faced man reported, "Boss, we've got the guests, but one's still missing."
"Who? The blonde one?"
"No."
"That's good. Be sure not to be followed."
"Don't worry. With Tony on it, nobody can tail us."
