Xu Haicong was speechless. This is too absurd, too ridiculous, he thought after a moment of silence. I'm a titan of Hong Hai Capital, one of the most prominent figures in Capital City. How could I be facing a life-or-death situation in the prime of my life?
But Shen Fanyun's gaze was firm, and his expression wasn't a joke. Is this guy really going to kill me?
"Heh." Xu Haicong still couldn't believe it. If I were a worthless ant, I'd have no way to resist. But I'm not.
Shen Fanyun reached out and patted Xu Haicong on the forehead. "Tell you what," he said on a whim. "I'll give you a chance. Use all your connections and resources. Find the biggest backer you have and see if he can save you!"
Xu Haicong fell silent, then asked, "Are you joking with me?"
He was becoming more convinced that Shen Fanyun was just being arrogant and overconfident. He scoffed, "If I really call in my backup, I'm afraid it would scare you to death."
