Chapter 966 Am I just being presumptuous?
Upon hearing this, everyone tried even harder to suppress their laughter.
"My friend has always loved making friends, and because of his special business, he knows a lot of people."
I don't know how that guy managed to spread the news that he was here, but several people have come looking for him.
Honey, I really have nothing to do with these people. I don't know any of them.
Why don't you come in and take a look?
Ji Xiuhan spoke quickly, and then went to open the door.
The bodyguards immediately tensed up again.
Little did Lu Wanqing know that she peeked through the crack in the door, then quickly closed it again and said softly, "Since there are so many people, they might have business to discuss. Don't get involved. Come to my room and don't disturb them."
Besides, I always feel a little uneasy sleeping in a room by myself!
Then, everyone heard the two people's footsteps leave, and then the door next door slammed shut.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Clearly, the president's wife was very intelligent. She sensed something was wrong and, worried that something might have happened to Ji Xiuhan, called him over.
At this moment, everyone in the room looked at Wu Jiajun.
After all that happened that night, they had no idea what to do next.
Besides, what if other assassins come knocking on our door?
In their eyes, the Wu family army was undoubtedly a super strong force, and it was clear that the two assassins tonight had fallen into his hands.
"This one……"
Wu Jiajun shook his head, then seemed to have thought of something, "You all need to arrange for people to go to these places and take them all down, and interrogate them about their behind-the-scenes financiers. That's what your CEO wants to know most!"
The bodyguards were overjoyed upon hearing this.
Despite their best efforts, they could neither find the assassins' hiding place nor know how many assassins had infiltrated the Maldives.
Unexpectedly, this person was incredibly resourceful, even knowing the exact location of the assassins who entered the Maldives.
Almost everyone bowed deeply to the Wu family army, saying, "Thank you, sir!"
"These people are no ordinary individuals; you must be extremely careful!"
Wu Jiajun solemnly instructed.
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Xie! I'll need your help again for the rest of the time!"
The bodyguards bowed deeply again, then quietly left, dragging the sack containing Shangguan Fei's body.
Wu Jiajun smiled and said, "These bodyguards are quite loyal to that guy."
He naturally understood that these bodyguards were worried that other assassins might come, and specifically asked him to protect Ji Xiuhan's safety.
Meanwhile, in the next room, Lu Wanqing pulled Ji Xiuhan inside. Ji Xiuhan was overjoyed; it seemed his wish was finally going to come true tonight.
He took the opportunity to hug Lu Wanqing, locked the door tightly behind him, and then walked towards the bed.
Unexpectedly, Lu Wanqing suddenly twisted her body forcefully, breaking free from his embrace in an instant. She casually threw two pillows in the middle of the bed, then rolled over and lay down on the other side of the bed, ignoring Ji Xiuhan, and simply covered her head and fell asleep.
"what's the situation?"
"How could you turn on me so suddenly?"
Ji Xiuhan looked completely bewildered. Where had his gentleness and thoughtfulness from just now gone?
"Your wife, you..."
He said, feeling wronged.
"Shut your mouth and go to sleep! I just want to leave this awful place by dawn!"
Lu Wanqing said coldly.
A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea!
Ji Xiuhan felt increasingly confused and resentful. He sighed helplessly and lay down on the other side.
He had been in a state of high tension for most of the day, but now that he was completely relaxed, he fell into a deep sleep in the blink of an eye.
"It's already past four o'clock, why hasn't that bastard sent any news yet?"
"Did it fail again?"
"If even that top-five assassin fails, then wouldn't it mean that no one can kill Ji Xiuhan at all?"
As time ticked by, the man grew increasingly agitated. He paced back and forth in the room, muttering to himself, a sinister glint in his eyes.
He waited until 4:20, then couldn't hold back any longer and made a call.
In a luxurious presidential suite on an island, the lights were still on. Hu Jinlong paced anxiously back and forth in the room, also waiting for news from Shangguan Fei.
"Could it be that Shangguan Fei also failed?"
"If even he failed, and Lao Niu died, wouldn't that mean that no one can kill Ji Xiuhan?"
The more Hu Jinlong thought about it, the more alarmed he became, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
He had originally planned to keep the extra 700 million yuan for himself, but now he felt that the 2.2 billion yuan bounty was like a heavy mountain that he simply couldn't bear.
"If there's still no definite news by dawn, it means Shangguan Fei has also failed, and then I'll have no choice but to run away!"
Hu Jinlong kept looking at his phone screen, secretly making plans in his mind.
However, at that moment, the phone screen lit up, and a call came in.
His heart skipped a beat, but the moment he saw the caller ID, he frowned deeply.
The caller was none other than the mastermind behind it all. They had called countless times throughout the night, pressing for updates.
Hu Jinlong stared at his constantly vibrating phone, at a loss for what to do, hoping the other party would hang up quickly.
After enduring half a minute, the call finally ended automatically. Hu Jinlong breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Before he could even catch his breath, his phone rang again; it was the same person.
Hu Jinlong sighed helplessly. He could almost picture the furious look on the other end of the phone, and he could even guess that he would be berated as soon as he answered.
And that was indeed the case; the man on the other end of the phone was practically furious.
Based on his intuition, tonight's assassination mission had failed again; the so-called top-five assassin had failed to kill Ji Xiuhan at all.
This almost drove him to the brink of madness!
"It's all because of that bastard surnamed Hu, that useless piece of trash!"
The man couldn't help but start cursing.
Hu Jinlong looked at the name flashing on the screen, sighed helplessly, and could only grit his teeth and press the answer button.
He had barely answered the phone, before he could even speak, when a deafening roar came from the other end: "You bastard, surnamed Hu! What's going on?"
The roar made Hu Jinlong's eardrums ring.
However, at that moment, Hu Jinlong suddenly felt something moving behind him. Before he could react, he felt a pair of large hands grab his arms and twist his hands behind his back.
A tremendous force struck him, and his body fell uncontrollably to his knees with a piercing scream. His phone also crashed to the ground with a loud thud!
"Hey, you surnamed Hu! What happened?!"
Upon hearing Hu Jinlong's screams, the man on the other end of the phone immediately sensed something was wrong and roared repeatedly!
