Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 434 First Meeting with Mingtai

Xu Tian's silence speaks volumes.

Ye Shaohong simply didn't know which faction Lao Tie belonged to.

It is the National Government.

Or perhaps it's still the Red Party?

It shouldn't be that simple. If it were just the Nationalist government or the Communist Party, given Lao Liao's cold-hearted nature, even if the two of them were sworn brothers, Lao Liao would definitely not let him go.

A ruthless and cunning old fox will not hesitate to betray his friends for money and profit.

So besides these two identities, what other identity could make Lao Liao so wary of Lao Tie? Okay.

Ye Shaohong admitted that there was too little information, and even he could not make any corresponding guesses.

Fortunately, Xu Tian's silence did not last long.

Two or three minutes later, Xu Tian's voice came through the phone again.

"To be honest, I can't confirm it either."

“But you’re right about one thing: Tie Lin’s father, Lao Tie, is definitely not an ordinary person.”

"His skills are not much worse than yours or mine."

It's clear that Xu Tian's brief few hours away from home had caused some changes in his mindset.

This change greatly surprised Ye Shaohong.

Xu Tian is no ordinary person.

In his youth, he studied at the Japanese Military Academy, but because his father died in the War of Resistance against Japan, he did not graduate and returned to China.

Even so, his brief study abroad experience still left a deep impression on his Japanese instructors.

And regarded him as a close friend.

It was precisely because of this past experience that his Japanese instructor set his sights on him after arriving in Shanghai.

Several schemes were devised to force Xu Tian to back down and submit.

Ultimately, the conflict escalated, and Xu Tian, ​​driven to the brink of despair, single-handedly toyed with the Shanghai Special High-Tech Company like a plaything.

His intelligence is not much worse than Zheng Yaoxian's.

Even with Xu Tian's intelligence, he couldn't discern the true identity of Tie Lin's father, Lao Tie, which already surprised Ye Shaohong.

Even more surprisingly, Xu Tian also said that Lao Tie's skills were not much worse than his and Ye Shaohong's.

Ye Shaohong had never tested Xu Tian's skills, but he had some understanding of his own.

If Lao Tie's skills are no worse than his, then he should be considered one of the top fighters in Shanghai.

"If what you say is true, my interest in him is growing stronger."

"Once I'm done with this, I definitely want to go and see for myself."

There was no need for further words, as they would be meaningless. After exchanging a few more messages and saying goodnight, the two ended the call.

At dawn the next day, a knock came from the door of the small building where the lights had never been turned off all night.

Ye Shaohong, looking exhausted, opened the door and saw someone who shouldn't have been there.

Mingtai.

The third young master of the Ming family. He was dressed in a student uniform, carrying a food box in his hand, and had a smile on his face as he looked at Ye Shaohong with great interest.

"Mr. Hou?"

Mingtai is currently only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, lively, cheerful, and mischievous.

As he stood in front of Ye Shaohong and opened his mouth to ask a question, he also secretly glanced into the room.

It seemed to be searching for something.

"Hey kid, what are you doing here?"

Looking at the familiar stranger in front of him, Ye Shaohong was at a loss for words.

He wasn't surprised that Mingtai was able to find him.

After all, Ye Shaohong had just met Mingtai's eldest sister, Mingjing, yesterday afternoon.

When Mingjing arrived, she was accompanied by several bodyguards to prevent any unexpected changes. Given Mingtai's favored status in the Ming family, he learned about his eldest sister's whereabouts from others. Out of curiosity, he learned about Ye Shaohong's hiding place from the Ming family's bodyguards.

This is definitely not difficult.

The only thing that surprised Ye Shaohong was that Mingtai was only so young, yet he had already shown extraordinary talent in espionage.

No wonder he was chosen by "Poison Bee" Wang Tianfeng to be the executor of the "Death Mission" in the future.

All I can say is that this kid is exceptionally talented.

You could say he's too mischievous and cheeky, always getting himself into trouble.

Just like now.

If it weren't Ye Shaohong in this room, but someone else, given Mingtai's excessive curiosity and reckless behavior, he would have been in considerable trouble.

At best, they'll get a beating; at worst, they could lose their lives.

"Why can't I come?"

"Wait... you know me?"

See it.

Ye Shaohong said that Mingtai was a gifted kid. He was very perceptive and noticed something unusual in just a simple sentence.

"So we know each other."

“I know your elder brother Minglou, and I have heard him mention you more than once.”

“I have also seen photos of your Ming siblings before.”

"You tell me... how could I not recognize you?"

Facing the underage Mingtai, Ye Shaohong was clearly in a good mood. Although he hadn't slept all night and was exhausted, he still mustered his energy and joked with Mingtai for a few moments.

"My older brother?" "Then he definitely didn't say anything good about me."

"Oh right, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you? I haven't either. I brought some pan-fried buns from Fuhe. Aren't you going to invite me in?"

Mingtai pursed his lips, first venting his dissatisfaction with Minglou, then his eyes darted around, and he casually raised the food box he was holding.

As he spoke, he prepared to walk past Ye Shaohong and enter the mysterious room in front of him.

"Good boy."

"Trying to outsmart me, huh?"

"Get out of here."

Ye Shaohong was quick-witted and nimble-fingered. As soon as he realized that Mingtai wanted to come in, he reached out and grabbed Mingtai by the back of his neck and collar.

He grabbed Mingtai by the collar with one hand, lifted him off the ground, and dragged him out of the room. "Hey, hey, let go!"

"You're hurting me. If you keep doing this, I'm going to go back and tell my older sister."

“I knew you were bullying me. My older sister loves me the most. If she finds out you've been bullying me, she'll definitely come after you.”

"At that time, you can forget about doing business with my Ming family."

Mingtai's quirky nature is already showing some signs. He's quite clever, knowing he's no match for Ye Shaohong, so he didn't hesitate to bring out Mingjing.

He also explained to Ye Shaohong his status in the Ming family and Ming Jing's favor towards him, hoping to make Ye Shaohong wary.

He then used this to achieve his goal.

Go ahead and sue.

"You're too naughty, kid. What you did today has crossed my line." "Even if you tell Sister Mingjing about this, she won't help you, and she certainly won't cut off our business because of your mischievous behavior."

Ye Shaohong had genuinely grown fond of this mischievous little fellow. If it weren't for the fact that Mingtai was still a minor, he would have wanted to take the boy under his wing, just like Wang Tianfeng had.

"She won't listen to reason."

"Fine, you're amazing, I'm scared of you, okay?"

"How about we discuss a business deal?"
