115: Chapter 115 Familiar People

After Xia Wei left, Zhang Shan lay in bed, feeling exceptionally good.

He felt as if he had experienced a blessing in disguise.

Although he had sustained some injuries, they were minor issues to him.

Days spent lying in bed were truly too boring.

Zhang Shan let his mind wander.

Suddenly, he thought of Mr. Zheng, whom Xia Wei had mentioned.

He decided to call Gu Nan; since he was idle anyway, finding something to do would be good for him.

As soon as his call connected, Gu Nan's voice came through.

"So, you finally remembered me. I thought you had all forgotten who I was. I was just about to call and ask what exactly is going on, and how you managed to get yourself hospitalized?"

Gu Nan's words were like a machine gun, speaking non-stop.

"Why are you so wordy? I just encountered a minor ambush and accidentally got a little injured, that's all. It's nothing serious, so don't worry."

Hearing Zhang Shan tell him that he was fine, the weight on Gu Nan's heart finally lifted.

He thought for a moment and said,

"Zhang Shan, things have been a bit off lately. I discovered that a group of unfamiliar people has arrived in Zhili Country. According to my investigation, there is a person named Li Pengfei, and I feel their motives are impure. When my subordinates handed me his photo, I had a strange sense of familiarity."

"A sense of familiarity? Could it be someone we know?"

"Don't be impatient, let me finish. Perhaps you feel like you have no impression of this name, but if I tell you his nickname, you should recognize him."

"What is it?"

"Leopard," said Gu Nan.

"What? Leopard? The Leopard from the African Snow Fox Mercenary Group?" Zhang Shan asked.

"Yes, you guessed right, it's him."

"Indeed. The Snow Fox Mercenary Group is at the top of the list of Africa's ten major mercenary groups. Do you remember when we met him while executing a mission before?"

"I know that. But what does this have to do with us?" Zhang Shan asked.

"From what I understand, this Snow Fox Mercenary Group is currently in a cooperative relationship with certain major powers in Zhili Country. Among them are our mortal enemies, so I feel this matter is not that simple."

Zhang Shan and Gu Nan originally belonged to the Sky Wolf Mercenary Group.

This Snow Fox Mercenary Group was the leader of the mercenary groups on the African continent, equivalent to a country's army, and they were well-equipped and well-trained.

Meanwhile, the Sky Wolf Mercenary Group they belonged to was merely a small mercenary group on the African continent, one that couldn't even be ranked among the countless mercenary groups there.

This was enough to show how powerful this mercenary group was.

If this mercenary group was here to deal with them, even without counting other forces in Zhili Country, the Snow Fox Mercenary Group alone was a behemoth to him.

"Moreover, Zhang Shan, for over a decade, the Snow Fox Mercenary Group has never left the African continent. This time, not only have they come to Zhili Country, but their most capable person has also arrived, which is quite unusual."

Gu Nan said with some confusion.

"What did you say? For over a decade, the Snow Fox Mercenary Group has never left the African continent?" Zhang Shan was somewhat surprised.

"Yes. They seem to be the type of people who remain detached from worldly affairs. Although they are the strongest mercenary group, they generally don't accept many missions. This is common knowledge throughout the African continent," Gu Nan said.

Zhang Shan furrowed his brows. They hadn't left Africa for over ten years, and now they had suddenly left. What exactly did this Snow Fox Mercenary Group want to do? It seemed their purpose for coming to Zhili Country this time was not simple.

It looked like something big was about to happen in Zhili Country during this period.

Zhang Shan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

In Zhili Country, most of the forces had some conflict with him.

If they were to join forces, he would truly be plunged into a huge crisis.

Zhang Shan sighed and furrowed his brows helplessly.

He was originally someone who feared trouble, but now, trouble was piling up more and more.

"Let's do this, Nan Zi. Their arrival doesn't necessarily mean it's aimed at us. Let's focus on our own affairs first. Go and investigate Mr. Zheng now. I feel he is definitely planning to take some action. We need to prepare in advance."

Zhang Shan explained the matter regarding Mr. Zheng to Gu Nan in detail, asking him to investigate Mr. Zheng, and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shan leaned against the bed and rubbed his temples.

He now realized that trouble was mounting, one after another.

However, the primary trouble right now was that Mr. Zheng.

Regardless of his identity or his motives, he needed to get to the bottom of it.

He didn't have time to play games with them anymore; he had to find a time to resolve this clearly.

He no longer had time to waste on this; there were still many things that needed to be done.

Zhang Shan touched the ring on his hand and suddenly smiled.

"Mr. Zheng, you should be thankful that the Snow Fox Mercenary Group has appeared in Zhili Country right now; otherwise, I would have shown you why flowers are so red."

However, what Zhang Shan didn't know was that everything could not develop according to the trajectory he envisioned.

Some things were not things he could resolve just by saying so.

Mr. Zheng was sitting in a luxurious KTV private room.

A woman with an exceptionally seductive appearance was swaying her waist while singing in front of him.

He furrowed his brows in dissatisfaction.

"Get out!"

"Is it at least because I didn't do well enough that you are dissatisfied?"

The woman felt she had already tried her best, but she still couldn't win the favor of Young Master Zheng.

She was somewhat confused.

"I said get out, so get out. Do you need any other reason?"

Mr. Zheng's expression darkened.

The woman glanced at him in terror and hurriedly ran out of the private room.

Ring, ring.

"Young Master Zheng, where are you? There are some things that need you to handle. Could you come back for a moment?"

Mr. Zheng's secretary called him tremblingly.

After all, he knew that Mr. Zheng was in a very bad mood today.

"Alright, I know. I'll be there in a moment."

Mr. Zheng said with a dark expression.

Before long, he returned to his office.

He walked over to the sofa and sat down, looking at the two people standing in front of him.

"Young Master Zheng, how was the woman I found for you today? Are you satisfied or not?"

It would have been fine if they hadn't mentioned it, but as soon as they did, Mr. Zheng's anger flared up.

"What, do you want to get an answer out of me? Say it's good? You've overestimated my taste a bit too much. You just put this kind of seductive, cheap woman in front of me; do you think I am one of those vulgar commoners? I hope you do some real work in the future."

"Young Master Zheng is right to scold us; we will pay attention next time."

A refined-looking middle-aged man said.

"No need. I don't think you can come up with anything good anyway."

The two men were so scolded by him that they didn't even dare to speak.

"Prepare yourselves, tomorrow you will go with me to the Aolu Group," Mr. Zheng said.
