"Besides, she did that to protect herself. Why must the godfather be so narrow-minded and haggle with a woman? It inevitably diminishes the dignity of someone in power."

Lie Feng was stunned, looking at his indifferent expression, it seemed that he was not at all afraid that the godfather would be angry. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He remembered the news from over there: due to a failed mission, the godfather had gouged out Ying’s eyes. He wasn’t actually surprised, not killing Ying was already the greatest mercy, considering the godfather held the power of life and death over everyone, and the number of people he had killed was immeasurable.

Yet, he still had a feeling, like a master who gouged out a dog’s eyes, it was done so casually that it was chilling.

But the godfather would not do the same to Third Young Master Jun. Is it that the godfather is exceptionally tolerant of Third Young Master?

He didn’t think so. In fact, the one who understood the godfather the most was Third Young Master. Everyone who worked under the godfather held him in reverence, as a god, as a master, obeying without question, not daring to defy, and mentally placing themselves below, including himself, subconsciously content to be slaves.

Only Third Young Master stood before the godfather as an equal, never bowing down.

Therefore, in the eyes of the godfather, other subordinates were dogs, but Third Young Master was human. This was a status Third Young Master fought for himself, and perhaps it was also the most powerful psychological weapon in his struggle against the godfather.

"I will convey your words to the godfather, but Ye Lu had better not take any excessive actions. After all, the godfather’s tolerance has its limits. Also, the godfather told you to offload this batch of goods as soon as possible; he urgently needs the funds from this batch."

"Offloading such a large shipment is not so simple. The customs of the North American Federation have been cracking down hard recently. I need to break it down before selling it, dealing with different intermediaries in different places. That’s the safest way, and naturally, it will take some time. The godfather has been in this business for decades; he surely understands this. Tell him that, and he will certainly accept it," said Third Young Master Jun indifferently.

Lie Feng thought to himself that the godfather had estimated to harm him, setting a trap for him to fall into. In fact, whether the deal was successful or not, the godfather didn’t really care.

He stood up, ready to leave.

But then he heard Third Young Master Jun’s cold voice: "Where were you just now? You’ve been gone for hours."

Lie Feng was shocked, turning back in surprise to look at him. He had been having an outburst for so long, yet he still noticed his absence. He couldn’t help but acknowledge that even at his craziest, Third Young Master still maintained a shred of sanity, a terrifying level of calm.

"I went to take care of something the godfather asked me to do."

"You’re quite honest," Third Young Master Jun said sarcastically. Since Su Feiman had sent Lie Feng to do something, it was generally no good deed; he knew the godfather wouldn’t make it easy for him.

What kind of cunning plan was it this time? He had to make a careful guess.

Lie Feng ignored his sarcasm and maintained a respectful demeanor as he left the room.

Third Young Master Jun watched the door close gently, with a smirk that was not quite a smirk, and a hint of puzzlement in his eyes.

"Lie Feng, why didn’t you let slip that I am ill, huh? If you’re going to betray, do it thoroughly. What is this half measure?"

If he had told the godfather about his illness, how would the godfather treat him?

Probably, he’d have me killed!

To the godfather, a person who cannot survive has no value whatsoever.

After catching his breath, Third Young Master Jun picked up the phone: "Mr. Roberto? Let’s arrange a place to meet. We need to talk about the deal!"
