Chapter 521: A Difficult Choice
d farther and farther away in front of them.But just at that moment, from far away, a woman's scream could be heard."Ke Zhen, stop right there!"The voice was very sharp and shrill, and it was clear th...Deko, a Black man, is a purebred local. Ye Fan didn't ask how he was subdued by Ren Zhihua. Every time he said the three words "Mr. Ren," he seemed very excited and full of heartfelt admiration. This shows that it should be more than just a simple matter of being hired with money.
Ren Zhihua put countless efforts into building this network. And this network, which is about to be launched, will gradually radiate the energy it is supposed to have.
De Ko drove Ye Fan to several places, all of which Ye Fan or another member had visited during the mission years ago. However, after a few years, everything had changed. But every time they arrived at a place, Ye Fan's mind would always recall what happened back then.
At that time, the task involved several areas. In a single day, Ye Fan only followed Deke to several places under his leadership, all within the city district. After visiting these locations, although the traces of the past were long gone, the images in Ye Fan's mind became clearer and clearer.
It was like reliving the past all over again, events from that year gradually becoming clearer in his mind. After looking through the information Ren Zhihua had given him last night, he could now view the situation from an outsider's perspective, which allowed him to see things more clearly.
In the evening, Ye Fan treated Deke to a meal at a restaurant and then returned to the hotel alone.
As soon as he stepped into the room, someone knocked on the door. He walked over and opened it, only to find one of Lin Bing's bodyguards standing at the entrance. Seeing the door open, the bodyguard spoke up, "Hello, Mr. Ye, Miss Lin asked me to tell you something, she wants to talk to you at the hotel's coffee shop."
"Long Nü found me so quickly Ye Fan had a slight hint of doubt in his heart, but he still nodded and said: "Please tell Miss Lin that I will wait for her at the cafe."
After receiving a reply, the bodyguard stopped talking. He simply nodded and left Ye Fan's room door.
Has Long Nü figured it out After the bodyguard left, Ye Fan thought to himself in the room. But he didn't want to think about it too much for now. He would go to the cafe to meet Long Nü first and see what she wanted to talk about.
Having changed his clothes, Ye Fan went straight to the cafe on the fifth floor of the hotel and found an elegantly designed booth.
After about ten minutes, the Dragon Girl appeared at the entrance of the coffee shop. Seeing Ye Fan from afar, she hesitated for a moment before striding over and sitting opposite him.
When Long Nü saw the coffee and pastry Ye Fan had ordered for her, a subtle movement stirred within her heart. This fellow actually remembered what kind of coffee she loved to drink and what kind of pastries she liked. However, her face remained as cold and frosty as ever.
From the first meeting to deciding to sit down and talk, Lin Bing still took a lot of courage.
"Your arrival in South Africa puts us all in a difficult position." Sitting opposite Ye Fan, Lin Bing said bluntly, without a single polite word, let alone mentioning the events of the past three years. Her tone was still icy cold, so cold that the temperature around them dropped several degrees.
"Is that all you wanted to talk about" Ye Fan stared into Lin Bing's eyes and asked calmly.
"Yes, I want you to go back."
Seeing Ye Fan staring at her, Lin Bing avoided his gaze and didn't look directly at him, coldly saying.
Ye Fan shrugged and shook his head, saying, “The current situation is beyond your ability to handle.”
"It's done."
"You underestimate me." Long Nü responded immediately.
"I've researched the entire mission thoroughly, including Kunka." Seeing Long Nü remained stubborn, Ye Fan stared intently at her eyes and said crisply, "If you guys could complete it, you would have probably returned home already. Do you think Sami would just compromise that easily"
Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, the Dragon Girl was slightly taken aback. Recalling what Ren Zhihua had said about Sami this morning, she felt even more confused. Hearing Ye Fan mention it now, her confusion deepened.
"Sami, did you do this" the dragon girl asked.
"Let's not talk about those things for now." Ye Fan looked at the Dragon Girl and continued, "Can we talk about something else"
The dragon girl shook her head, tilting it to one side.
"Alright." Seeing the dragon girl like this, Ye Fan couldn't help but smile wryly and said, "This time I came to South Africa, I want to make a conclusion to what happened back then."
"Conclusion"
How is that possible Lin Bing turned her head to look at Ye Fan, and their eyes finally met. Ye Fan keenly noticed that the moment his words fell, the dragon girl's shoulders trembled slightly.
"Yes." Ye Fan nodded. After saying that, he looked directly at Lin Bing, his eyes clear and serene.
Eye to eye, this was their first such gaze in three years. It was filled with inquiry, confusion, and too many emotions that were difficult to decipher.
No matter how hardened Lin Bing's heart was, at this moment, it still trembled slightly, and her eyes became a bit moist.
How can I be like this Even though I have forgiven him, the events of that year remain a mystery to me, and that is the biggest obstacle in my heart... Lin Bing's heart trembled slightly, more out of a plea for guidance. She wanted answers from Ye Fan's gaze.
Ye Fan nodded with certainty, a confident smile on his face, much like the one he gave to Fatty and Lin Bing when they completed missions together as children. This smile was filled with safety and reassurance, and for many years, it allowed Lin Bing and Fatty to rely on him.
"What should I do" Lin Bing thought to herself secretly. Xu Chu's meaning was that Ye Fan shouldn't be involved in this matter. This should come from the organization.
However, things have now reached a stalemate. If Ye Fan were to get involved, the situation would likely take a turn for the better. On one hand, there was a strict warning from the organization, and on the other, there was Lin Bing's affection for Ye Fan. For a moment, Lin Bing's heart was filled with turmoil.
"This mission, perhaps we can find some clues." Ye Fan seemed to see through Lin Bing's mind, and said, "The people above spent so much effort preventing me from going abroad, they were afraid I would investigate the past. But in the end, I found out some information. This time, it is an opportunity to settle the matter from back then."
Ended
Seeing Ye Fan's confident smile, Lin Bing's heart seemed to open a crack, and she felt a little flustered. She couldn't help but lower her head. She reached out and picked up the coffee Ye Fan had ordered for her, taking a small sip.
"Long Nu, I don't want to miss this opportunity. Please consider it seriously again. I'll wait for your answer." Seeing Lin Bing's panic, Ye Fan stood up and said in a deep voice. After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the restaurant door.
When Ye Fan left, Lin Bing suddenly felt an emptiness in her heart. This feeling hadn't appeared for a long time.
"Ye Fan, wait a moment…" Just as Ye Fan was about to leave the restaurant, Long Nu stood up from her seat and said coldly. At this time, she had once again returned to her usual cold state.
Hearing the dragon girl's shout, Ye Fan stopped and turned to look at her.
