Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1110 - 545:

"What’s the point of keeping that secret? Those orphans are strangers to you, risking your master’s life for a bunch of irrelevant kids, is it worth it?"

"Don’t mess around!"

Ah Le saw that being soft wasn’t working, so his tone suddenly hardened, starting to bluff:

"This is East Capital, and Chairman Shen has the support of the Shen Family!"

"Do you know the background of the Shen Family? They are a top-tier elite family that even the official Special Search Team has to show respect to!"

"If you dare harm a single hair on the Chairman, not only the thousands of brothers from the East City Association won’t let you off, but the Shen Family will make it impossible for you to step foot in this city!"

"The Shen Family?"

The person was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, as if he had heard an even more ridiculous joke, then let out a disdainful snort and arrogantly said:

"Don’t use such worldly families to pressure me! In my eyes, all those Shen and Li Families are just pigs waiting to be slaughtered!"

Ah Le’s face flushed with anger, gritting his teeth as he shouted:

"What do you want? If you release them, we can offer a very high price!"

"A very high price?"

The man’s tone suddenly turned playful, full of mockery:

"How high? Higher than the sky? Hahahahaha——"

As this mocking remark ended, a stronger gust of wind could be heard on the other end of the phone.

The howling wind almost drowned out the voice.

"You useless, let me tell you, and that helper you found, do you want the people?"

"Either honestly tell me the address of the orphanage, or if you’ve got the guts, come and get them yourself!"

"I’m waiting for you here. Don’t keep me waiting too long, the night wind is strong, and my patience is wearing thin!"

"Beep——beep——"

The phone was rudely hung up, the busy tone echoing in the air like a loud slap.

Ah Le held the phone, his face livid, chest heaving violently, obviously enraged.

He turned his head, looking at Fang Cheng with a face full of dismay:

"Mr. Fang, the negotiation fell through. These lunatics are totally unreasonable, neither soft nor hard approaches worked, we couldn’t even get the location out of them..."

"No, you’ve done very well."

Fang Cheng, however, slowly lifted his head, his gaze passing over Ah Le, looking out at the neon-lit nightscape, a cold curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

"At the very least, we confirmed one thing, Chairman Shen isn’t dead yet."

"And, their current location, I’ve basically figured it out."

Upon hearing this, the frustration on Ah Le’s face instantly disappeared, and he quickly said:

"That’s great, shall we set off now? I’ll go get the tools!"

"Stay home, and don’t go anywhere."

Fang Cheng put away his phone and quickly walked into the bedroom.

He opened a drawer, took out a gun already loaded with bullets, and skillfully tucked it into his back waist.

Then, he rummaged through the wardrobe to find a black hooded sweatshirt and put it on, stashing the distinctive Evil Ghost Mask into a shoulder bag.

As he walked out of the bedroom, Ah Le was anxious:

"Mr. Fang, I know I’m injured, but an extra person means extra help! Those people are all lunatics, it’s too dangerous for you to go alone!"

Fang Cheng glanced at the bandage on his abdomen, still seeping blood, his mouth slightly pulled:

"In your current state, you can barely walk straight, how do you plan to accompany me to save people?"

"Stay here and heal, if I’m not back by morning, figure out a way to escape yourself."

After saying this, Fang Cheng didn’t look at Ah Le again, directly pushed open the door, and his figure quickly disappeared into the dark shadows of the hallway.

Leaving behind only Ah Le’s gaze filled with both worry and hope.

The corridor was silent.

Fang Cheng took out his phone, his thumb quickly pressing out a series of numbers on the keypad.

The phone rang only twice before it was answered, a gentle and steady voice coming through the earpiece:

"Chairman, any orders?"

A gleam flashed in Fang Cheng’s eyes, and he immediately commanded:

"Professor, call over those new members, we have an operation tonight that needs them."
