Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 386: Chapter 386 Cooperation Achieved

Xu Ke’s question left Hu De silent, and the room was suddenly enveloped in a silence longer than any they had experienced before.

"Being an undercover agent is extremely dangerous, so my identity is confidential. This is not only to protect me but also my family. It’s normal if you don’t trust me, but if you’re willing to cooperate with us, I’ll prove my identity to you and request protection for you and your wife. After all, this is a risky matter, not your obligation, but I sincerely ask for your help." Hu De said earnestly.

"Over the years, countless people have lost their lives in this city. Though it seems peaceful and prosperous on the surface, in reality, it’s rotten to the core. It’s like a cancer in the human body; if not treated, it will continue to spread until the body completely decays. Do you understand what I mean?" Hu De, enduring the pain in his neck and the fear of death, tried hard to turn his head to look into Xu Ke’s eyes.

"Before you arrived, I strained to accomplish this task, but could only worry futilely. Your appearance made me see hope for success and a glimmer of light.

I don’t want to miss this chance, so I took the risk of possibly being exposed to find you, hoping you can forgive my abruptness and seriously consider my proposal to help us reorganize this city." Hu De said.

Xu Ke remained silent, not speaking. His heart was unmoved; you could call him cold-hearted or unfeeling. He’s never been one for personal heroism; being selfish, his first thought is always of his own interests. His wife, Lin Mengyao, his friends, and his home; besides these, he cares for nothing else.

Therefore, Hu De’s words had not produced the expected result; Xu Ke’s attitude remained as cold as ever, showing no extra reaction, dispersing any sadness he just felt.
