The murderous intent in Lin Fan's eyes grew increasingly intense, then transformed into a frenzy of killing intent!
He strode fiercely toward Chen Nan.
By now, Chen Nan had already dropped his dagger and was staggering, running toward the distant car.
He was completely terrified.
There was only one thought in his mind: run! Run as fast as possible!
Lin Fan closed the gap in three steps, his eyes locked tightly on the back of Chen Nan's knee. With all his strength, his right leg kicked out!
Bang!
A dull thud!
Chen Nan's right leg ached, and he fell backward onto the ground.
"Brother, listen to me…" Chen Nan spoke in a panic.
Lin Fan didn't respond but raised his right leg again, kicking Chen Nan's head. Chen Nan's body slid forward half a meter from the force, blood spilling from his mouth and nose.
Chen Nan clutched his head and shouted, "Lin Fan! Do you know what will happen if you kill me today?"
Lin Fan still said nothing. He fixed his gaze on Chen Nan's knee and stomped down hard!
Crack!
After a crisp sound, Chen Nan's knee visibly caved in. He let out a wail, eyes rolling wildly, almost fainting from the pain.
Lin Fan sneered coldly and began kicking Chen Nan's head repeatedly, as if playing football. After several kicks, Chen Nan gave in completely, feeling like Lin Fan wanted to beat him to death right here.
"Brother, stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I'm just doing this for someone else…"
"What do you want? I'll give you money, okay?"
"Say something! Please stop hitting me!"
"Even if you want to kill me, just tell me clearly, alright?"
Chen Nan was on the verge of collapse. Lin Fan's silence tactic shattered Chen Nan's mental defenses completely. He screamed miserably, eyes glazed over, consciousness starting to blur, every part of his body radiating intense pain.
At this point, Chen Nan was breathing out more than breathing in.
Lin Fan crouched down, grabbed Chen Nan by the collar, and asked in a low voice, "I ask, you answer, understand?"
"I'll cooperate… can you spare me?" Chen Nan whimpered.
"Spare you? Impossible. But I can make your death easier." Lin Fan had no intention of letting Chen Nan go and spoke directly.
Chen Nan gave a bitter laugh. He seemed to realize his wish was a pipe dream, but tortured and in pain, he was willing to cooperate just to end his suffering faster. "Fine, ask."
"Who is the boss behind you?" Lin Fan asked sternly.
On the surface, Tianrun Pharmaceutical had several shareholders wielding great power. Lin Fan wasn't sure if this was the order of just one of them or if all the shareholders were involved.
"My boss is Liang Tianyu…" Chen Nan said with difficulty.
Lin Fan frowned.
Liang Tianyu, that bastard indeed.
General Manager of Tianrun, the highest-ranking figure on paper, the very person who once manipulated drug prices and sidelined his predecessors.
Hearing the name, Lin Fan asked again, "Besides Liang Tianyu, is there anyone else involved?"
Chen Nan was losing too much blood; his eyes were glazed. It looked like he couldn't hold on much longer.
But in this state, the information was the most reliable.
Because Chen Nan couldn't possibly lie now.
"Liang Tianyu is fully in charge of this matter. He's sealed off all information very well… Except for us operatives, even other deputy managers in the company don't know…" After another long groan, Chen Nan struggled to speak, "Recently, he's been clashing with another deputy general manager. He wants to use this incident to boost his authority, gain credit from the head office, and push that deputy out of the Nancheng branch…"
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.
Head office?
Could it be that Tianrun Pharmaceutical, such a large company, is actually just a subsidiary of a group?
If so, the group behind it must be an incredibly powerful giant.
Slap! Slap!
Seeing Chen Nan about to faint, Lin Fan slapped him twice to keep him awake. "Did Liang Tianyu report this matter to the head office?"
"No…" Chen Nan seemed to regain some clarity after the slaps and said, "The deputy general manager who has a conflict with Liang Tianyu seems to have backing at the head office. Liang Tianyu doesn't dare to escalate this matter to the head office for fear someone might leak the information to that deputy, ruining his plans…"
Lin Fan sighed with relief.
It seemed the information was still contained with Liang Tianyu. As long as it hasn't spread, solving this would not be difficult.
"Where does Liang Tianyu live?" Lin Fan asked again in a low voice.
Lin Fan wanted to go after Liang Tianyu but definitely not at Tianrun's company.
First, Tianrun had many security guards. Even with the current chaos, their financial reserves gave them formidable protection. If Lin Fan stormed the company recklessly, he might fail to get Liang Tianyu and get himself trapped.
Second, this had to be handled secretly. The purpose was to cut off the information chain. If Lin Fan acted openly and attracted attention, it would backfire.
Given these considerations, the place to deal with Liang Tianyu had to be somewhere private.
"He lives at…" Chen Nan was Liang Tianyu's absolute confidant and knew his habits well. Even with his blurred consciousness, he revealed everything Lin Fan wanted to know, word for word.
Lin Fan listened and memorized the details. After confirming he had all the information, he looked expressionlessly at Chen Nan and said, "One last thing…"
...
Meanwhile, sitting in the living room of a luxurious villa, Liang Tianyu anxiously tapped his fingers on the table.
He was waiting for news of Chen Nan and the others' success.
If this went through, his position in the group would skyrocket, finally entering the highest decision-making level!
From then on, he would transform completely — from a carp into a dragon!
Suddenly, his phone on the table rang.
The caller ID read: Chen Nan!
