Chapter 451 Bringing Them Under My Command

When Xu Tian met Gao Han and Ma Yunfei, none of the three spoke.

They simply looked at each other and nodded.

Even though it was so simple, they quickly became acquainted.

Because all three of them knew very well that anyone who appeared at Ye Shaohong's house at this time was someone they could trust.

After a brief introduction, the four of them began drinking and chatting. Quite coincidentally, none of them mentioned their mission.

They were just chatting idly about the domestic situation and the latest battle updates they'd gathered from various sources. Under these circumstances, they unconsciously increased their drinking speed, and by midnight, Xu Tian was the first to pass out.

No one laughed at him.

Of course, no one helped him up.

Ye Shaohong and Ma Yunfei started drinking again, and by the time they had finished all their drinks, it was past midnight.

At this point, Ye Shaohong was already somewhat tipsy.

He let Gao Han and Ma Yunfei stay, since his villa was large and had enough rooms for the two of them to rest.

However, Gao Han ultimately rejected the suggestion and helped Ma Yunfei out of Ye Shaohong's house.

A short while later, a car pulled up in front of the villa.

Ye Shaohong glanced into the car through the light and, seeing that it was He Jian, the adjutant, felt relieved. He then returned to the villa and helped the drunk Xu Tian into the guest room.

Then he went to the bathroom, took a bath for a while, and when he came out, Yu Manli had also returned.

After a brief conversation, the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

It was very noisy outside that night.

The room was quiet, and Ye Shaohong, unusually, did not flirt with Yu Manli, the stunning beauty.

When Ye Shaohong woke up again the next day, Yu Manli had already prepared breakfast.

Xu Tian also sat upright in the restaurant.

"woke up?"

"You little rascal, you've been keeping this a secret for a long time. I only found out today that the owner of the rouge shop in the triangle area is actually my sister-in-law."

While eating pan-fried dumplings and drinking milk, Xu Tian glanced at Ye Shaohong and gave a cold, muffled groan.

“Brother Xu, please don’t take offense.” “As you know, what Shao Hong is doing is very dangerous. For my safety, he doesn’t want me to be involved in too many things or too many people.”

Today, Yu Manli is showing the demeanor of a little girl in front of Xu Tian.

There is absolutely no trace of a strong woman in her.

She wore an apron around her neck and busied herself setting out breakfast supplies for Ye Shaohong while simultaneously handing him several newspapers she had just received that day.

Ye Shaohong raised his head, glanced at Yu Manli, nodded, and then looked at Xu Tian.

"Haven't you already seen it?"

With a single response, Ye Shaohong had already told Xu Tian a lot of things. He believed that with Xu Tian's intelligence, he should be able to understand his predicament and intentions.

The result was as he had imagined.

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's words, Xu Tian simply raised his head, blinked, and didn't ask any further questions.

outside the house.

The sounds of gunfire and artillery fire continued unabated.

inside the house.

The only sound was Yu Manli's footsteps pacing back and forth. Ye Shaohong and Xu Tian at the dining table did not continue their conversation.

Until breakfast is over.

Ye Shaohong picked up a towel from the table and wiped his mouth before raising his head.

"Xu Tian, ​​I have a task for you."

"Give me?"

Xu Tian was taken aback; he clearly hadn't expected Ye Shaohong to suddenly say something like that to him.

After all, he wasn't a KMT agent.

He wasn't Ye Shaohong's subordinate either, so normally Ye Shaohong couldn't directly give him orders. But this thought only flashed through Xu Tian's mind for a fleeting moment.

He was then forcibly pressed down. After all, Xu Tian was still a soldier who had received professional military training. Deep down, he still had a sense of patriotism.

In addition, gunfire and artillery fire continue in Shanghai, with compatriots dying on the battlefield every moment.

Even if Xu Tian longs for a peaceful life, he still needs to think it over.

"Ah."

Thinking of this, Xu Tian gave a calm response, which was a way of expressing his attitude.

Aren't you going to ask me what task I've assigned you?

Ye Shaohong chuckled softly. He had already anticipated this outcome and was not surprised at all.

To be precise, today's smooth progress was actually the result of his many plans and step-by-step management. However, Xu Tian is different from Zhuang Yifan, Li Yunlong, and Xiao Zhengguo. He must maintain sufficient respect for Xu Tian.

In Ye Shaohong's heart, Xu Tianxian was his friend and brother.

Then came his partners.

"No need to ask, I believe you."

"Since you've decided to let me handle this, you must be in trouble, and I have the ability to resolve it."

"Anyway, you won't sell me out."

Xu Tian had finished eating and picked up a towel from the table to wipe the grease off his hands.

His words were equally nonchalant.

That is very much in line with his own temperament.

"of course."

“We’re brothers, I would never betray you. If I ever get into danger, you’re probably the only one in all of Shanghai who can save me.”

Ye Shaohong responded casually, but these were actually his true feelings.

Xu Tian blinked, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, but it disappeared in an instant.

"the same."

"The reason I'm willing to come out and work for you is because I trust you and believe you won't let me be in danger."

"Let's talk about what you want me to do first."

Through this conversation, Ye Shaohong and Xu Tian were able to truly open up to each other. Ye Shaohong had also fulfilled his wish and finally brought one of the few intellectually gifted individuals in this spy drama under his command.

"it is good."

"This story begins two days ago..."

And so, amidst the gunfire and artillery fire outside, Ye Shaohong slowly recounted his meeting with Wang Tianfeng in front of Xu Tian and Yu Manli.

It began to recount the power struggles between the two of them.

It then recounted Wang Tianfeng's obsessive nature.

In the very end, Ye Shaohong revealed the deal he had made with Wang Tianfeng: to assassinate Feng Zixiong without leaving a trace.

"It can't be discovered by others?"

"It's alright, this task isn't too difficult. Give me some time, and lend me Yunlong for two more days, and I'll give you a satisfactory answer."

"As for Wang Tianfeng, my advice is that you'd better be wary of him."

"After hearing your account of his deeds, I have great respect for his character. However, such a person is not suitable to be a friend, much less a brother. If you are not careful, you may lose your life and fortune if you are not careful..."
