Who Made Him a Lawyer?

Chapter 707: Chapter 443: Forced! Choices! (Part 2)

Zhuge Rong suddenly spoke, he stood up, his face devoid of expression, only adorned with a faint smile.

Immediately after, he pulled over a chair and sat beside Xu Liang.

The next second, a voice suddenly sounded.

"What is Lawyer Xu’s purpose for boarding the ship?"

Suddenly.

Xu Liang paused, the dining knife in his hand hesitated slightly, but then immediately resumed as he continued to eat the food on his plate.

Until the food he was chewing was swallowed into his stomach.

He picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth, and said calmly:

"Naturally, it’s to expand business cooperation and bring several suitable channels to the law firm."

Indeed.

Everyone here holds this mindset, or rather, it’s precisely for this reason that they gathered together, becoming the so-called ’International Cross Ferry Group!’

Which is also why there’s this so-called ’Noah’ ferry beneath our feet!

But...

"Earning money... can pose significant risks."

Zhuge Rong smiled faintly as his tone shifted.

"When does Lawyer Xu plan to submit your pledge of allegiance?"

"Hehe, Ms. Su is not my subordinate, I have no authority to command her." Xu Liang said.

Ever since boarding the ship, he hadn’t paid any attention to Su Yao; after all, for him, ensuring the other party’s survival was sufficient.

Of course, perhaps even this basic guarantee might prove difficult to accomplish.

After all... this is ’Noah,’ not an ordinary cruise ship!

"Xu Liang."

Zhuge Rong suddenly adopted a cold tone, his eyes serpent-like and eerie as they locked onto the other’s gaze.

"Stop playing tricks here."

"This floor is known only to insiders, no one else knows it exists."

"And this is not Upper City, but ’Noah’... even if you disappear here, no one will know!"

In other words.

This is a good place for destroying evidence!

The walls are thick enough, regardless of how loud you scream or wail, the outside world won’t hear a single sound, completely eliminating the fear of information leakage!

On the flip side...

"Have you verified it?"

Xu Liang suddenly asked back, "How many have died here?"

Zhuge Rong replied, "I hope Lawyer Xu won’t be the next."

Neither directly answered the question, their tones were equally bland, yet the air was charged with a tense atmosphere, as if a full-blown drama could erupt at any moment.

At Xu Liang’s side, Zhao Feng, who hadn’t left, quickly began to mediate.

"President Zhe, please forgive him, Lawyer Xu is still young, young people have strong tempers, let him calm down for a bit."

Zhao Feng said fawningly to Zhuge Rong.

Then he leaned closer to Xu Liang, whispering:

"Lawyer Xu, that man named Donnie is the chairman of the Western Country’s Earl English Company, the company’s market value is in the billions of US Dollars!"

"The old man with the golden hair beside him is a high-ranking official in their country’s governmental system..."

"Also present is the royal Prince from the Gallic Chicken Kingdom..."

"Bowing your head won’t make you cold, it can earn money... big money!"

Prince and high-ranking officials!?

Xu Liang paused, glancing around.

In the chaotic and depraved environment, everywhere there were continuously emanating beastly instincts, pale strips of flesh worm.

And these weren’t even done within the room.

Furthermore... this is just the most basic form of lust, not counting those Xu Liang hadn’t seen yet!

Looking at those twisted faces, consumed by desire like quasi-human creatures, Xu Liang paused.

Prince? High-ranking official?

Are these creatures dressed in monkey coats, with moral corruption worth it?

However... the individuals standing behind the Cross Group are indeed imposing enough.

It should be noted that the people at the banquet probably make up less than one-twentieth of the total, yet it’s already enough for any random word to cause a ’quake’ in parts of the region!

Thinking this.

He sneered inwardly, then calmly put down his knife and fork, staring directly at Zhuge Rong.

"Let Su Yao do it."

Su Yao?

That whore?

Zhuge Rong said nothing, still bearing a smile.

Crime is the best pledge of allegiance, only by grasping blackmail capable of bringing the other down completely can Zhuge Rong feel relieved!

Especially since the other party is from Eastern Country!

It must be known that, abroad, these people’s blackmail may not be fatal.

But the things on the ship, placed in Eastern Country, would be 100% lethal!

Therefore.

Zhuge Rong initially arranged for a child from the Red Heart Organization, a handle strong enough to crush Xu Liang.

But never expected Xu Liang to pick Su Yao.

Letting a trash conspire with the other side... this can’t hold them down.

So...

"Lawyer Xu, how about having some meat first?"

Suddenly.

Zhuge Rong unexpectedly pushed a plate of meat across the table to Xu Liang, leaning forward, looking at him, and speaking:

"After all... just eating fruits and vegetables won’t fill your stomach."

As the words fell.

Xu Liang’s gaze landed on the table, a plate of steak cooked to a medium-well.

There was no gamey taste unique to beef and lamb, it was like a steak presented on a delicate, pristine plate, surrounded by sauce and garnished with a green olive branch.

You can tell the chef put an effort into the dish!

Xu Liang looked up and saw Zhuge Rong staring at him intensely, and said:

"This is something I carefully prepared for you."

Carefully prepared...

Heh, perhaps that’s why Wang Chenghua didn’t want to board the ship.

"What if I say I won’t eat?" Xu Liang retorted.

"You can try." Zhuge Rong’s gaze instantly turned cold.

Zhao Feng was shocked internally, trying again to smooth things over, "No, no, no, Lawyer Xu is still..."

What a pity.

He hadn’t finished his sentence yet.

Beside him, Zhuge Rong immediately interrupted, silencing him with a glance.

"Heh, you wouldn’t think he’s sincerely joining the Cross Group, would you!?"

As he spoke.

Zhuge Rong’s eyes fixed on Xu Liang, his face showing a mocking expression.

"Lawyer Xu, hasn’t anyone told you that your watch should be sent back to the factory for repair before bringing it out again for it to be more presentable?"

With these words.

Zhao Feng paused, instinctively looking at Xu Liang’s wristwatch.

Looking at it this way, he was suddenly a little puzzled, because the watch on the opponent’s wrist... the three hands weren’t moving at all, in other words, this was a broken watch.

"A very cheap watch, tampered with by the police, right... heh, did they realize halfway through the operation that the watch malfunctioned and suddenly stopped working?"

Zhuge Rong leaned back in his chair, expressionless, and showed no tension.

But Zhao Feng, upon hearing this, suddenly felt unsettled.

"Tampered with by the police?"

Zhao Feng looked shocked, his body fat quivering.

"What do you mean!?"

"Literal meaning."

Zhuge Rong didn’t elaborate, he simply looked calmly at Xu Liang and said:

"What was added inside? A real-time GPS tracker?"

"Heh, that’s quite thoughtful."

Saying this.

Zhuge Rong closed his eyes, took a deep breath, slowly brewing anger within his chest.

He had been deceived...

He had actually been completely tricked by the opponent!!!

Zhuge Rong was very angry, within three minutes of the opponent entering the party, he realized he had been utterly toyed with!

The opponent...

Perhaps knew his identity.

But absolutely didn’t know what happened to Zhao Jie, nor could they possibly know about the ’Noah’ and the Cross Group!!!

Yet they managed to deceive him, allowing him to blend into the most secretive part of the ship.....

Barring any accidents, the police are likely to have already locked onto the Noah!

"However..."

"This floor is equipped with full-spectrum signal jammers."

Zhuge Rong suddenly took a deep breath, suppressing his inner anger.

Firstly.

The ship has already left the port, the police are chasing slowly.

Secondly.

They can’t discover this hidden floor!

So...

If it isn’t absolutely necessary, he doesn’t want to kill the opponent.

Wang Hai and Zhao De aren’t easy opponents to deal with, his actions in Upper City, seemingly probing in Xu Liang’s eyes, are actually him mobilizing the most resources he can without exposing his identity!

Trying again...

If exposed, Zhuge Rong himself will be hard to protect!

And the opponent can continuously escalate Wang Hai and Zhao De, so the opponent cannot die.

Once dead, he’s most likely finished!

But back to the point, if he finishes... then the opponent doesn’t need to live!

"I’ll give you two choices."

Zhuge Rong’s gaze grew colder, he stopped pretending completely, yet didn’t burst into murder.

"One, eat it, and then go to the kitchen to make a meal yourself."

"Two.... "

Saying this.

Zhuge Rong paused, and the next second, he pulled out an icy steel object from his waist.

It’s a handgun, gleaming with a chilling light!

The black muzzle was now pointed straight at Xu Liang’s forehead.

Zhuge Rong’s gaze was sinister, he whispered:

"Die here!"

"I’ll give you ten seconds to make your choice."
