Li Xuejin shook his head, then rose and cupped his hands. "I am at the Boss's command."
Cheng Zongyang smiled faintly, pleased to see how quickly Li Xuejin was adapting to his new role. "So, you can take me to the Huangfu Ancestral Land now, right?"
Li Xuejin nodded. "I can. But we'll have to wait until tonight. I still need to prepare a few things."
At this point, all he could do was continue to gamble—gamble that Cheng Zongyang wouldn't discard him once he was no longer useful.
But he had no other choice. He couldn't get his revenge, and guarding the ancestral land was pointless.
Cheng Zongyang was very satisfied with Li Xuejin's decisiveness. He had already laid out his terms and promises; if the man still refused to act without a guaranteed outcome, there would have been nothing more to discuss.
As for why they had to go at night, he would find out soon enough.
After Li Xuejin left, Cheng Zongyang had someone summon Li Lu and informed him of the situation with Li Xuejin.
