Chapter 738: Plan In Motion

CHAPTER 738

Meanwhile, Kim Fan remained bothered about the matter. He did not know which step to take in getting through to Ren without alerting Lin Qi.

As calm as she seemed, she was more or less of a devil and he knew exactly how her. rain could work.

Without being told, he expected her to be mischievous and up her game against him.

So after not hearing from Ren, he was disturbed truly.

‘What should I do at a time like this?’ Kim Fan thought inwardly.

.....

While he paced still in his office, his mind thought about the risk involved in putting a call through to Ren.

“Do I have to travel now by myself and seek out Li Jing or what do I do?”

His phone screen lit up, announcing a call coming in.

Immediately he made his way back towards the phone and answered the call.

To his surprise, he heard the sultry, yet mischievous voice of Li Qi and stilled for a moment.

“Lin Qi. Good evening. What gives that you are using an unknown number today?”

Kim Fan inquired, trying his best to maintain his calm through the whole ordeal.

“I use this to contact my plug for such things.”

“Such things? From the manner in which those words were said, you seem to be quite sure of their capabilities.”

Her face went blank at how he so effortlessly got her ready to spill and backed into a corner as she could not speak.

On the other end, Kim Fan thought of possible situations to keep Li Jing safe.

Howbeit, it turned out Kim Fan caught her so easily.

She shook her head, swinging it from side to side in hopes of getting him of her mind and preventing him from playing mind games on her.

“Anyways, I think it may be gentlemanly of me not to ask you of such things. So let’s move on to why you called, madam.”

“Good. There is no time for games. I would be as direct as I can be.”

“Alright. I have something important to take care of as well.”

“More important than your revenge?” Lin Qi asked, disbelieving his lie.

“Well, if my company is not reason enough, then I think you may have lost sight of priority but I haven’t. Without that company, there would eb no plan like this, Li Qi. That is where I make my money from.”

“Fine. I called to inform you that all plans have been put in place,” she went straight to the point.

Somehow, she had begun to suspect things to be fishy and she wanted to play it safe.

“Okay. What more?”

“We need you to give the go ahead.”

“Me?” Kim Fan asked, wearing a shocked expression.

If Lin Qi had seen him now, how mad she would have gotten.

‘What does he mean by me? Is it my late mother?’ Li Qi sneered in her mind.

“Yes, you. You lead this operation and they await your go-ahead.”

“You do not need me for such. You made the utmost plans. So please you do the needful. Give them the go-ahead yourself.”

“But I...”

“I’m sorry, Lin Qi,” he interrupted her. “You would have to do all of that without me. Go through the plan again, you and Mrs Lin Xuilan.”

“Kim Fan!” She hollered into the phone not caring one bit for his eardrums.

“Yes?”

“What games are you playing?’

“There is no game of play here. The only problem now is that I have an important meeting to attend and it is already time. Since you ladies aren’t busy, go ahead and handle things.”

“Kim...”

“Save the name-calling, Lin Qi. Tell me of your success when you achieve it. After all, it was you who decided to speed things up. Be able and responsible to handle things.”

“It simply means, you did not ask me about my schedule these next few days and I believed since you didn’t ask, then you by all means were ready to take command.”

“How dare you?”

“Nothing to get all worked up about. Have a good day.”

Beep!

Lin Qi’s eyes widened when she heard the sound of the call. She tried calling him back, but his phone was busy.

Her chest rose and fell with great might while her anger was kindled.

She hoped they were in together and also wised that he take command on things like that so as to give her brain a chance to rest and also should in case things go wrong, he would be pointed out first.

‘That damn bastard! Fine. I would teach you a lesson when I get to take Lin’s Enterprise for myself. Just you wait. I would cripple your company.’

While her mind was occupied with rage and how she was going to enact her revenge, her phone beeped and in came a message from Kim Fan.

“If you are not confident enough, you can wait. I would give the order tomorrow.”

Her eyes burned with more of her rage and she did not bother hiding it from the lady that stood close to her.

“Lin Qi, what did he say?”

“He seemed to have cornered me in every way possible. I do not know what he is thinking but now, I cannot trust him.”

Lin Xuilan let out a deep sigh as her expression closed up. “You expected too much from him, seems like he is also being careful as we are trying to be.”

“Yet he calls himself a man and agreed to hire the men!” Lin Qi half yelled as she spoke.

“It is a good thing we came to a separate club and we are using a sound proof room. Lower your voice and calm down already.”

A vein popped out at the side of her neck, clenching her jaw tight.

“I would be calm when I have caught that Kim Fan and really teach him a good lesson.”

“Sure. Sure. He is not a stupid man. Now all we can hope for, is that things play well. If they do, we barely spent any money handling that.”

“Fine. At least that is true,” She agreed.

“Look on the bright side, Lin Qi,” Lin Xuilan began and waited for her sister-in-law to think properly.

“Yes?”

“Even if things do go wrong, it is his money that is being used to hire the kidnappers. If things went AWOL, they would trace the money to his account.”

Lin Qi’s eyes held a glimmer in them at the thought of what her sister-in-law said and smiled.

“Sure. You do have a big point there. Fine. I would do just that.”

“So, what did his text say?” Lin Xuilan raised her brows in a teasing manner.

“I know that came from him judging by your expression,” Lin Xuilan pointed out.

“He wants me to wait if I cannot handle it. I suspect him, so I am going to act anyways.”

She typed away on her phone and dialled a number. It did not take long and the phone began to ring.

“Hello?”

“It is I. You can start the operation. There is no more time.”

“Yes madam.”

She ended the call, cast a side glance to Lin Xuilan and with a pocker-face, she gave a slight nod.

“Plans in motion. Not even Kim Fan can stop or change this.”
