"Wan Yun Ting, I don't care how you do it, but if you don't show up in front of me tomorrow, don't ever show up again!"
Fang Yanxi, furious, yelled into her phone before hanging up and tossing it onto her desk. She leaned back in her chair, breathing heavily, her anger causing her secretary, Lin Xiaoqi, outside the office door, to hesitate to enter…
"Yanxi, hello, Yanxi, hear me out…"
Wan Yun Ting stared at the hung-up call and tried to dial her back. But Fang Yanxi had directly hung up. This wasn't a discussion; the scoundrel hadn't considered her feelings at all.
When Jiang Wenhao was kidnapped before, Wan Yun Ting had gone to the US alone to save him. Fang Yanxi hadn't said anything, but she had been worried sick during that time, fearing he might encounter danger in the US.
She had initially expected him to return immediately after Jiang Wenhao was rescued. Instead, this scoundrel had gone to Mexico, the world's largest drug trafficking hub, to stir up trouble and caused such a huge scene.
Reading news reports about Mexico deploying tens of thousands of government troops to crack down on drug cartels, even without seeing the specific combat footage, was enough for Fang Yanxi to guess that the Chinese person mentioned in the news was him.
For a moment, Fang Yanxi's heart almost leaped out of her chest. Yet, he was still lying and concealing things on the phone, refusing video calls, likely because he was injured and felt guilty about her seeing him.
How could Fang Yanxi not be angry? That scoundrel had completely disregarded her feelings, going to Mexico and causing such a massive incident. What would happen to her if he died there?
"Okay, I'll come back. I'll appear before you tomorrow. Yanxi, please don't be angry. I'm truly fine. See you tomorrow…"
Seeing that she was still angry and not answering his calls, Wan Yun Ting could only type a WeChat message to her. Fang Yanxi saw it but remained fuming and ignored him.
"Sigh…"
Wan Yun Ting sighed helplessly and tossed his phone onto the bedside table. Hou Feipeng, sitting nearby, chuckled, "Boss Wan, is the嫂子 (sister-in-law) angry?"
"Don't be ridiculous…"
Wan Yun Ting kicked him, scolding him in annoyance.
He knew why she was so furious – it was because she was worried about his safety. And Wan Yun Ting, in his pursuit of revenge against Carol Quijin of the Dragon Group, hadn't considered his own safety much.
If the government troops hadn't arrived in time today, he might have really met his end on Mexican soil.
"Looks like I can't go after those two scoundrels," Wan Yun Ting said with a sigh.
Hou Feipeng's expression faltered. "You're not going after Roa Aliq and Vasquez Kai?"
Wan Yun Ting had planned to find Roa Aliq and Vasquez Kai to settle scores once his injuries healed a bit in a couple of days. But after receiving Fang Yanxi's call and being scolded, he realized he couldn't take any more risks. He had to consider the woman back home. What would happen to her if she knew he had died here?
The thought of his woman crying in another man's arms if he died made Wan Yun Ting's heart race with panic…
"What am I supposed to do? Didn't you hear your嫂子 telling me to show up before her tomorrow?" Wan Yun Ting glared at him, annoyed. Just then, Daniel walked in and asked, "Mr. Wan, is your injury healing well?"
"Yes, it's a minor injury. I won't die."
Wan Yun Ting smiled at him and then said, "Right, arrange a plane. I need to return home."
"Now?"
Daniel was taken aback, somewhat surprised that he wanted to return to China immediately.
Wan Yun Ting nodded. At this moment, Zhang Ruiyang and several other Chinese diplomats, along with Commander Cardan and a group of government military officers, entered. Zhang Ruiyang smiled, "Wan Yun Ting, how are your injuries? Do you need anything else?"
Facing Zhang Ruiyang and Commander Cardan's officers, Wan Yun Ting shook his head slightly and smiled, "My injuries are not serious, and I don't need anything."
"That's good."
Seeing that he was alright, Zhang Ruiyang felt relieved. He gestured to Commander Cardan beside him and said with a smile, "General Cardan and his officers are here to thank you, our hero."
Commander Cardan stepped forward and shook Wan Yun Ting's right hand, his eyes filled with admiration. "Wan, I thank you on behalf of Mexico. It was you who killed Carol Quijin and his men, giving our government forces a chance to completely eradicate them. We have now captured Lio Te La and apprehended all their cartel guards. Unfortunately, a part of their elite guard managed to escape."
Wan Yun Ting nodded and smiled, "General Cardan, you are too kind. This is what I should do. I hope you can thoroughly eradicate these drug cartels in the future."
"Certainly."
Commander Cardan released his hand and nodded with a smile.
Previously, when their local government forces received this plan, none of them believed that a single Chinese person could kill Carol Quijin, the biggest drug lord in Mexico.
But Wan Yun Ting had done it, completely changing the situation between the local government forces and the drug cartels.
Now, the government had launched a full-scale war against the drug cartels, deploying a large number of troops to crack down on the armed forces of the Dragon drug trafficking group. Even some armed forces of the Roa drug trafficking group and the Bas drug trafficking group were not spared, igniting a wave of resistance against drug cartels in Mexico.
To Commander Cardan and their government military officers, Wan Yun Ting was now like a god!
After all, their government forces were constantly trying to assassinate or eliminate big drug lords like Carol Quijin, but no matter how many agents they sent, they never succeeded.
Therefore, Wan Yun Ting's feat of assassinating Carol Quijin, the captain of his elite guard Herman, and Abel, the second-in-command of the Dragon drug trafficking group, was an astonishing accomplishment, earning him Commander Cardan's admiring gaze.
Zhang Ruiyang and the others, seeing the government military officers like Cardan looking at Wan Yun Ting with admiration, also felt proud.
Because Wan Yun Ting was Chinese.
"By the way, Wan Yun Ting, their President wants to meet you personally tomorrow," Zhang Ruiyang said.
"Ah, tomorrow?"
Wan Yun Ting looked surprised and confused. Zhang Ruiyang asked, "Do you have any issues?"
Wan Yun Ting said with a slightly embarrassed smile, "I do have an issue, actually. I plan to fly back to China later. Can I refuse this meeting?"
"Whoa, Boss Wan! That's their President, and you're just refusing it to rush back to see your嫂子?"
Hou Feipeng, standing nearby, was almost dropping his jaw at his words. He admired him, indeed, the "miracle man" they called him in prison.
"This…"
Zhang Ruiyang and the other diplomats exchanged glances, bewildered by Wan Yun Ting's decision. After all, it was an honor for a regular person to be personally visited by the President, but he was refusing.
Wan Yun Ting smiled, "Minister Zhang, I'd rather not meet him. I don't want the whole world to know who I am; that would bring me immense trouble!"
Hearing this, Zhang Ruiyang nodded, understanding that the major incident Wan Yun Ting had caused in Mexico, if made public, would bring him not only immense honor and benefits but also countless crises and troubles.
After all, he was the trigger. If his identity were truly revealed, drug cartels worldwide might seek revenge.
"Alright, I'll go back and negotiate with them," Zhang Ruiyang nodded and agreed to Wan Yun Ting's decision, asking, "What time is your flight?"
Wan Yun Ting asked Daniel, "My flight is at eight o'clock in the evening."
Zhang Ruiyang nodded, turned, and informed Commander Cardan and his officers about Wan Yun Ting's flight back to China at eight o'clock. This surprised Commander Cardan and his officers, who strongly urged him to stay, but Wan Yun Ting politely refused their kind offer…
At seven o'clock in the evening, Wan Yun Ting left the command center. Daniel also packed his belongings and brought them over. Hou Feipeng, carrying his travel bag, followed Wan Yun Ting into a military vehicle. A fully armed government escort accompanied him to the airport…
At eight o'clock, a private jet took off from the airport…
However, Wan Yun Ting and Hou Feipeng were not on that plane. They boarded a regular Am099 Sonic passenger plane, departing at half-past eight and heading directly to Shanghai International Airport in China…
More than half an hour later, news spread locally that a private jet had been shot down by missiles and crashed into the sea – the private jet that had taken off at eight o'clock!
Who had destroyed that private jet with missiles was obvious: the local drug cartels.
Perhaps it was the副队长 (deputy captain) of Carol Quijin's elite guard, Molton, who had escaped, or perhaps it was Roa Aliq and Vasquez Kai. The Mexican government would investigate these matters later!
But unfortunately, they miscalculated. Because Wan Yun Ting had anticipated this, he had deliberately arranged for a private jet to take off, while he and Hou Feipeng had already boarded a Sonic plane heading back to China…
