The Family Head of the Ye Family proactively invited reconciliation, and it would seem petty of me not to go.

Moreover, I also want to see just what the Ye Family is up to.

After confirming the time and place, Xu Fan hung up the phone.

"What's up? Oppa, has trouble arrived?"

At this moment, Feng Huang walked over.

When Xu Fan had cautioned Han Dongxu to be careful in the car earlier, she had been alert, guessing that the trouble from the Ye Family had probably arrived.

"Yes, someone from the Ye Family wants to meet me. Whether it's trouble or not, I still don't know."

Xu Fan let out a breath and then smiled, "How about it? Interested in accompanying me to see what it's all about?"

"Sure, as long as you don't mind me holding you back, I have no objections."

Thinking it over, Feng Huang could at least be of some help if she went with Xu Fan, and without hesitation, she agreed right away.

When night fell, Xu Fan drove off with Feng Huang to the meeting place arranged by Elder Li.

It seemed the Ye Family really meant to show their sincerity this time – the chosen rendezvous spot was a restaurant owned by the Li Family.

Upon arriving at the destination, Xu Fan parked the car, took Feng Huang by the arm, and headed towards the entrance of the restaurant.

She didn't complain about Xu Fan taking advantage of her at the moment; in front of others, Feng Huang was quite willing to give Xu Fan face.

At the entrance, after notifying the manager of their arrival, someone led Xu Fan toward a private room deep inside the restaurant.

Pushing open the door to the private room, they could see that Elder Li was already waiting inside.

Different from past meals, aside from a few personal bodyguards standing at the back, there were no other unnecessary people in the vast private room.

Not a single person for company.

It was quite normal, though; whether the Ye Family came to apologize or had other intentions, what they planned to do was not something they wanted others to know about.

"Xu Fan, have a seat," Elder Li welcomed.

"Okay."

Sitting across from Elder Li, Xu Fan briefly surveyed the luxury of the newly renovated private room before teasing: "Elder Li, they are supposed to apologize to me, and they haven't even arrived yet. Isn't this a bit insincere?"

"You little brat, you made people wait all these days, and you can't wait a little while?" Elder Li chided with a smile.

Considering the Ye Family had hurried to Shanghai early only to wait because of Xu Fan's return to Jinling, waiting until now was inevitable.

Having waited in Shanghai for all these days just for Xu Fan, they were bound to be somewhat irritated.

Perhaps now, they are intentionally making Xu Fan wait to regain some face.

"Hehe, I have the patience, I'm just afraid that someone might be up to no good in secret," Xu Fan remarked, sitting in his seat, squinting his eyes and scanning the surroundings with a meaningful expression.

"What? You think I'm in cahoots with the Ye Family folks to deal with you?"

Hearing Xu Fan's heavily suspicious words, Elder Li couldn't help but curse and laugh.

After all, the location for today's meeting was Li Family territory.

No matter what his surname is, they couldn't possibly cause a scene on their turf.

Of course, he didn't suspect Elder Li's grandfather, Li Qinghe, but it seemed Elder Li himself did not yet know that he, this time, had become the sacrifice in the Ye Family's attempt to kill him...

"Xu Fan, is something wrong?"

Knowing Xu Fan very well, Feng Huang felt something was off with him and quietly approached his ear to ask earnestly.

"It's nothing."

Xu Fan simply smiled and explained to Feng Huang.

Just as he had predicted.

The Ye Family really wasn't going to let things go.

Indeed, the restaurant was the Li Family's territory, but in this world, what wall doesn't have ears?

If he wasn't wrong, the person in charge of the restaurant had been bought over by the people of the Ye Family in the past few days.

Now the Ye Family inviting him and his party to dine in the newly renovated luxury private room seemed like an olive branch, but in reality, it was a push into a pit of fire.

Through the golden light in his right pupils, he could see that the walls and the ground beneath the private room had been packed with explosives!

If there was the slightest sign of unease on his side that got caught on the monitoring video, those explosives would be detonated!

When that happened, the entire restaurant would be leveled to rubble!

The restaurant hadn't changed anything because of tonight's dinner, so if the explosives were detonated now, the patrons outside would also die a tragic death alongside him!

To kill him, letting hundreds accompany him in death, the Ye Family really went all out this time!

The authorities weren't intervening anymore; they were hell-bent on taking his life.

If he hadn't guessed wrong, right now the Ye Family's people were probably spying on every movement within the private room through the surveillance video.

Xu Fan calmly started chatting with Elder Li, with intermittent conversation.

As they chatted, one hand reached into Feng Huang's skirt beside him.

Meanwhile, inside the restaurant's security surveillance room.

A middle-aged man dressed in a Zhongshan suit, his eyes sharp as an eagle's, was coldly observing Xu Fan and Elder Li on the monitor.

Seeing Xu Fan slip his hand under the woman's skirt, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Facing death and still in the mood to play with a woman?"

"Hmph, old man Li, he would never dream that his own family had turned against him, would he?"

Everyone has weaknesses that can be exploited.

The person from the Li Family in charge of looking after the restaurant was indeed loyal, but alas, he was too fond of his daughter who had just started primary school.

Money was indeed useless to him, but with his family's life in their hands, how could he not obey?

Thinking about the carefully planned trap of the last few days, Xie Tianlong couldn't help but laugh proudly.

It was also fortunate that Xu Fan didn't return to Shanghai sooner, which gave him plenty of time to prepare.

Now that time had almost passed, Xie Tianlong patted the brawny man next to him, who was dressed in a black tank top, and commanded, "Keep a close eye."

"As soon as I leave the private room, you detonate the bomb, understand?"

"Don't worry, Master, I know what to do," replied the brawny man confidently.

With his subordinate's assurance, Xie Tianlong then stepped out of the security room.

What of an Innate master? They were only slightly stronger than regular people.

Under the force of these thousands of pounds of explosives, no matter how strong he was, it was impossible for him to leave even a bone behind!

Soon, Xie Tianlong arrived at the entrance of the private room.

He stood at the door without going in directly.

He had already instructed his subordinates to start the countdown for the bomb only after he left.

A full four minutes of countdown was enough for him to get out of the range of the explosion.

But before taking action, there was always that slight bit of nervousness.

He stood at the door, pondering, planning to start a quarrel with Xu Fan as soon as he entered, to take the chance to leave right away.

By then, he would be able to complete the task given to him by the Family Head!
