It seems that it is neither Yin Jianren nor Zhu Xiaohong, and it is even less likely to be someone assigned by Wang Tian. Given Wang Tian's character, he would never eliminate himself; instead, he would let someone torment him before killing them.
“Afraid? Ha! Of course I’m afraid. I’m afraid that things won’t go well and I won’t get the reward I deserve.” Gong Shangnan felt a tightness in his chest; his worries had been noticed. He could only feign calmness and laugh heartily. It seemed he could no longer probe further. After all, this kid was going to be dealt with by him, and he didn’t even know who he was. What troubled him was that the young master wanted him to tell this He Er Gou a story, to reveal who intended to eliminate him. For a moment, Gong Shangnan didn’t know how to proceed. Once he spoke, there was a good chance that He Er Gou could guess who he was.
“Oh? It seems your employer still has demands of you? No wonder you’re dragging your feet. You’re just waiting for me to wake up to complete your task. Now you can speak. If it takes too long, feel free to bring some food and drink; we can chat while we eat,” Mo Wen said, retracting his gaze from the cloaked figure.
He Er Gou’s demeanor made Gong Shangnan momentarily flustered. This person was not simple. If the young master didn’t have such strange demands, there wouldn’t be so many complications. Now he had to do more than just complete the task assigned by the young master; he also needed to clear his own name. The fact that he was from the Gong Family wasn’t a secret, especially with that mysterious master behind He Er Gou.
“What are you thinking about? I really don’t know if your employer is lacking calcium since childhood, missing love while growing up, or developing poorly that they would have such demands. If it were me, I would just end it swiftly with a single strike. From the looks of you, it seems you don’t do this often. How about I ask you something, and you answer?” Seeing that the cloaked figure didn’t respond, Mo Wen grew impatient. Whether joking or serious, it should come to an end. To his surprise, the cloaked figure actually nodded.
“I… fine, you win. Who sent you to capture me?” Mo Wen didn’t know how to express his thoughts and felt that this person had some issues.
“The Genius Young Master of the Gong Family.” Gong Shangnan sighed in relief; He Er Gou’s idea was indeed clever. Now all he had to do was answer questions.
“The Genius Young Master of the Gong Family? I don’t know him,” Mo Wen shook his head. He had killed someone from the Gong Family before, but no one knew it was him.
“Are you really He Er Gou?” Seeing Mo Wen’s reaction, Gong Shangnan began to doubt whether this He Er Gou was indeed the one he was looking for; if not, then it would be an end right there.
“Yeah! I am He Er Gou, but I truly have no impression of this so-called Genius Young Master of the Gong Family. Why don’t you just tell me his name? Don’t tell me you don’t know either?” He had heard of the rules of hiring assassins—only looking at the price without asking about the employer’s identity. Since this person claimed that the employer held a noble status, they should know who it was; otherwise, why drag things out?
“Gong Junyan.” Gong Shangnan reluctantly revealed the young master’s name. After all, the young master had said he wanted He Er Gou to know exactly who he had offended; there wasn’t much to keep secret.
“Gong Junyan? Gong Junyan? That name sounds familiar… let me think for a moment.” Upon hearing Mo Wen’s words, Gong Shangnan felt embarrassed for his genius young master; after all this effort to find a supposed enemy, it turned out that they didn’t even remember him. “Haha! I remember now! That guy is considered a genius in the Gong Family? Tsk tsk! The Gong Family really is lacking talent!” Mo Wen finally recalled that Gong Junyan mentioned by this person had indeed been part of the Zi Family’s training team; Zi Lan had told him that this person was from the Gong Family.
