Under One Person: The frog cub gave me an insulating claw at the beginning

Upon hearing Feng Tianci's words, the old man was speechless and rolled his eyes helplessly. He thought that Feng Tianci would at least be a little smarter.

Who knew this kid wasn't smart at all, and even thought he would take advantage of young people? Does someone who's lived to be this old really need to do that?

If he cheats a young person, wouldn't the young person have some complaints?

He was truly impressed; the young people these days were incredibly quick-witted, almost catching an old man like him completely off guard.

"Everyone says you're exceptionally smart, that you can control the Special Bureau, and that you certainly have a way with it. How come you can't even figure out something this simple? Do you think I'm trying to trick you young people? I just thought that old woman had a bad personality, so I deliberately gave her a difficult task to prevent her from having any doubts and to make her cooperate with us. But instead, you think I'm the kind of person who's greedy."

After hearing what the old man said, Feng Tianci thought to himself that it seemed to make sense.

However, the old man was not sincere at all, which meant that their cooperation had never gone smoothly.

Feng Tianci had some doubts about this, which he felt were appropriate.

"If you could be more honest, perhaps I wouldn't have thought this way before, but I have my reasons for thinking this way now."

"Alright, what's your plan next?"

The old man stood at the door waiting, because he knew the old woman would definitely come out.

The old lady would never give up so easily, so she turned a blind eye, but the other party was not stupid at all.

"Just you wait, he will definitely come out. Not only will he come out, but he will also find a way to cooperate with us on the rest."

Feng Tianci found it hard to believe what the old man said; he always felt that all of this was just something the old man was saying.

If only that old lady could really cooperate with them.

"Sir, sir, my matriarch invites you here. She says she has something to discuss with you."

In fact, how could he not understand that all of this was a scheme set up by the old man? He also knew that the old man was still waiting outside, so after thinking it over carefully just now...

He also knew that the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold" definitely existed, and that those foreign forces should not have intruded into their territory in the first place.

The old man knew him too well, so he had been waiting for his answer. What else could he say?

If he refuses someone who knows him so well, the other person will definitely keep coming back to him!
"You came!"

After Mrs. Li finished speaking, she pointed to the seat opposite and saw that the teacups had not been put away, which made the old man look embarrassed.

"Do you think I can't understand your little tricks? So I didn't take your teacup away either." After saying that, Old Mrs. Li sighed.

"You can't touch the people behind this. Besides, those people are practically middlemen in order to get some benefits. You could say they're aiding and abetting evil. How am I supposed to make those contacts? Even if I recommend you, it would be dangerous for you to handle it yourselves."

What Mrs. Li said was true; she was thinking of the old man.

After hearing this, the old man was no longer afraid.

"My forces are certainly not afraid of them, but I wonder what their strength is? They are able to hide it so well, without revealing even a single clue."

This is somewhat puzzling. In any case, under these circumstances, the old man will definitely continue to wait; he is a hunter.

“I will send the list to your phone. Please check your inbox. Once the list is sent, this matter will have nothing to do with me anymore. You know I have people I need to protect, and I never interfere in certain matters. I hope you can understand me.”

The old lady sighed helplessly. After all, he still had his own family to protect. If it were when he was young and alone, he might not have hesitated so much, and he would have done the same as the old man.

After receiving the list, the two left Feng Tianci. They actually knew a little about the old lady, but she had been a very spirited and dashing woman in her youth, and now she refused to participate no matter what.

"Why would he choose to give up? If this matter had succeeded, there would obviously have been benefits, and he would have become famous as a result. His family would have also benefited. Why would he give up these benefits?"

The old man knew that Feng Tianci was still too young and didn't understand many things. If Feng Tianci knew, he wouldn't have asked such a question.

They were aware of the dangers involved, but these young people were completely unaware.

“What you’re saying makes everything seem easy, but you need to know that there are many things you can’t know. The old lady also knows about the benefits, but the risks are too great. She can’t drag her family into taking risks. As for me, I’m just a bachelor. What do I have to be afraid of?”

At worst, we can fight them to the death, but others are different. At their age, they have families they want to protect.

Feng Tianci understood as well. When he opened the list, he was shocked. All the upright people he had thought of were on the list, and everything they had done was just an act.

"In other words, they are deliberately sending signals, and while they appear to be respectable figures, they are actually helping a lot of foreign forces."

Feng Tianci clenched his fists. What they were doing was completely dividing up the interests of the Chinese people. No matter what, this behavior was indeed despicable. When he saw Feng Tianci getting angry because of this, the old man chuckled twice.

He knew this young man was impulsive, so he thought he wouldn't tell him, but he didn't have anyone around to help him.

"Alright, calm down. I've been in this position for so many years. You all think I'm the villain, or even that I'm the one who orchestrated all of this. But I'm just trying to maintain balance. I'm still being used as a pawn. Young people like you are even more likely to be used as fodder."

Even if you act impulsively, you must protect yourself first. (End of Chapter)
