Chapter 718 - Sacrifice one of your loyal men.

Already guessing the coming consequences his way, Pan Hong didn\'t delay his troop disappearance. He has never underestimated the power of Feng Shufen and nor his way of getting back. Though he has ordered the move against the devil with the thoughts of success, he has already prepared himself for the after-effects.

Settled in a secluded corner of the city about which none knew, he was sure until and unless he remained hidden, no one would be able to find him, let alone trap him in their plans.

"Boss, the lady is here to meet you. Should we allow her to come in?" Pan Hong was resting on the couch, enjoying a glass of his stress-reliever wine when one of his men came in to inform about Zhen Qinrou\'s arrival.

"Do you even have to ask that? Since she is already here, bring her in comfortably. And also, switch on the lights of the hallway. She doesn\'t like darkness". Pan Hong ordered, maintaining the smooth yet depressing silence of the air.

The man nodded before turning to leave, closing the door after him.

Within the next few minutes, the door was again pushed as Zhen Qinrou made her way directly into the room. With her expression, she looked quite happy and satisfied for the first time.

"Pan Hong, I must say this villa is really a great place to enjoy your time alone. You have made the right investment in it ". Zhen Qinrou said in her own world of happiness as she made her way to take the seat across the man.

Pan Han looked at her and could not help but feel a little wrong in his heart. He could see the happiness the woman was enjoying but he also well knew how short-lived her happiness was. She must be happy hearing the boy\'s condition in the hospital, but all her smiles will vanish the moment she will learn how near her secret has gotten to get revealed.

He wanted to let her know that it was not the time to celebrate happiness, but to stress about the situations they will be facing in the future. But seeing her so happy he wasn\'t getting the heart to break her world of happiness.

"You seem to be happy coming here. If I had known this earlier, I would have invited you here more often. Is there any special reason behind it?" Pan Hong asked, concealing the truth for the time being.

Zhen Qinrou looked at him and shrugged her shoulders casually. "What do you take me as, Pan Hong? I am not as heartless as you think. Of course, I also have a heart that feels happy when it gets the success to see". She chimed, bending forward to pour a glass of wine for herself.

"So, you are happy today. Are you satisfied with the happenings already?" Pan Hong asked, keeping a small smile over his lips that didn\'t reach his eyes.

The woman took a sweet sip of wine before giving a smug smile. "What do you think?"

"But he is not yet dead, RuoRuo. The news that your stepson released is about him recovering, not about his death".

"So what? Not dead today, but he can be tomorrow. Since your people have been capable of bringing him to this situation already, I am sure it must not be too tough for them to kill him tomorrow. After today, I have gotten back the lost faith in your capabilities. You didn\'t seem as useless as I have thought you to be". Zhen Qinrou said, not letting her smile dissipate from her expression.

At her words, Pan Hong could not help but feel his expression get dim. "That won\'t be as easy as you think, RuoRuo. We won\'t be able to do anything to him now. If we do something, we won\'t have any escape left in this world, not even this". He said, emptying the whole of the drink at once in his throat.

"Who is asking you to do it, Pan Hong? You have got so many loyal men around you. You can always sacrifice one for me". Zhen Qinrou said, without feeling any shame in her words. Instead, it looked like she was proud of her thoughts.? "Ask one of your men to do this job for you. I am sure they won\'t be useless."

Though Pan Hong has always known how wrongly ambitious Qinrou was, he has always believed she had a heart that had kindness for others. Maybe not for the enemies, for some of the people around her. So, when he heard her suggest something like this, he could not bring himself to believe his ears.

"RuoRuo they are my men. I hold responsibility for them. There is no way I can sacrifice them like that. And if there is something that I have to do for you then it would be me doing it. I will sacrifice myself, not them. Don\'t talk this recklessly". The man said, at once disagreeing with the suggestion put forward by the woman.

Zhen Qinrou paused but then smiled, shaking her head. "Why are we ruining our mood talking about that right now. Let\'s just cherish the success for now. After all, how could we decide the future beforehand? Any prediction will be useless, as we have a record – none of our plans match the future." She said, resuming her smile as if it had never paused in the first place.

Pan Hong could understand the meaning hidden behind her words but this time he was strongly against it. There was no way he would accept to sacrifice any of his men in the hands of the play. He has already lost Zhan Lei and losing another will only bring his people distrust in him. And that will be something he would never accept.

"RuoRuo, let me be clear. I will not …" He began his words with an intention clear but before he could proceed any further with it a voice came with a rush to interrupt the conversation.

"Boss, Jing Shaoqing has left for Chiboa\'s City Hospital!"
