Chapter 784 - 784 Fighting for the Initiative
784 Fighting for the Initiative
In the end, Vice-President Tang slowly nodded. It was just Elder Chen and his disciple. Even if they had brought him back, with their man, they’d be able to seize them again eventually.
It really wasn’t much of a problem.
“Alright, I agree.”
He took a deep breath. “However, I’ll be the one to decide on the location of our exchange. Why don’t we exchange in a small alley on the East Side of South Street? My people will be waiting there.”
!!President Tan immediately shook his head.
Being a long-time resident of Jing City, he knew exactly how chaotic that place could be.
If they really drove up there right now, they might as well be just setting themselves up for an ambus.h.!.+
Wouldn’t the odds be against them?
Naturally, Yao Tang refused. “Wouldn’t it be too obvious if we headed up there in a large group? Why don’t we meet at the Entrance of the Music a.s.sociation instead.”
Vice-President Tang frowned.
It would be much easier to ambush them, given the number of guards around the a.s.sociation. By the time they set foot, they would automatically be done for.
They couldn’t agree to this.
It was far too dangerous.
The elders within the Music a.s.sociation would’ve already talked with the people from the National Security Bureau. They’d obviously be waiting for them.
The Green Cloud Pavilion would only be walking into a trap.
“Our deal is set in South Street. If you don’t come, then you can forget about the deal,” Vice-President Tang snapped coldly.
The girl obviously wouldn’t be able to resist the temptation of saving Elder Chen. If she could exchange them with the elder himself, then she’d have to take all the risks they brought her.
From what he knew about her, he knew that she was the newly recruited disciple of the Inner Sect.
He smirked.
What she had said may have been instructed by President Tan himself. While he may not have met him, he had some understanding of the man.
Even President Tan wouldn’t let go of this opportunity, right?
After all, they were talking about one of the Grand Elders.
“Ha!”
Just as Vice-President Tang felt as if he was finally reaching to an agreement, a loud and mocking laugh echoed from the other end of the line.
His stomach stirred.
It seemed that it wouldn’t go as well as he had expected.
Could his prediction be wrong?
“I don’t really care,” she replied nonchalantly. “As long as I hand over Elder Nie to the Cabinet, I’ll still be making quite a contribution. Besides, I don’t know Elder Chen either way, so it’s fine if you decided to keep him.”
She shrugged as if Elder Chen’s death was a trivial matter.
Yao Tang prepared to hang up.
“Since we can’t come to an agreement, why don’t we just forget about it?”
This time, Vice-President Tang fell silent. His eyes widened. How could she have rejected his offer? Did she not understand what was going on?
At that moment, President Tan raised his eyebrow. “Shall we bring him back, then?”
Since they couldn’t come to an agreement, he must take action.
It was better to bring a spy anyway.
“Alright, let’s do this.”
She was just about to hang up when the man’s voice came from the other end of the line.
“Don’t hang up!” he yelled anxiously. “We can discuss things even further. How about we meet in a different place? As long as it isn’t at the entrance of the Music a.s.sociation, we’re willing to work with you.”
He had just heard a man’s voice.
That must’ve been President Tan.
However, why did it feel as if President Tan was asking for the girl’s opinion?
Was she the one making the decisions here?
“Then I’ll let you know when I’ve chosen.”
Without another word, she hung up.
Vice President Tang gritted his teeth in exasperation. How could he, a fifty-year-old man, be negotiating with a little girl? How could she have won the negotiations? He rubbed his forehead.
How embarra.s.sing!
However, did he really have a choice?
