Chapter 270: Kept a Trick Up The Sleeve

Gu Fan didn't know how long he'd been unconscious, only that it felt like an eternity. When he woke up, he found himself alone with a lingering sense of fatigue.

Thinking back on events before blacking out, Gu Fan was irritated. What was this? Bridge-burning after crossing the river? What Lin Xi did was just too much.

Just as Gu Fan was fuming, he heard a chilling voice from behind him: "Finally, you're awake. I thought I'd been waiting forever."

"You've got to be kidding me. That voice?" Gu Fan tensed up in cold sweat. When he slowly turned around, just one glimpse was enough for him to wish to pass out again. This was his most dangerous foe.

The big boss was sitting behind Gu Fan in an armchair, legs crossed, with a cold expression on his face. He said, "I want to know what happened, and I want the truth. Your life depends on your honesty."

Gu Fan immediately nodded in agreement: "Rest assured, honesty is my best policy. But I'd like to know how you ended up here."
