Chapter 1196: Chapter 1196: Ex-Girlfriend Has a Bad Temper
Today, Gu Fan arrived at the seaside. He closed his eyes, folded his arms across his chest, feeling the sea breeze, listening to the waves lapping against the shore. His heart gradually grew calmer, as though melting into nature itself.
Helen came, but her complexion wasn’t good, and she even looked a bit haggard.
Gu Fan opened his eyes and glanced back indifferently, "You’re late. I thought you weren’t coming at all."
Helen’s attitude was equally indifferent, "You must have something important to discuss if you asked for me, so of course I came."
Gu Fan was slightly worried, "Does Organization X know you came to see me?"
Helen managed a weak smile, "Before coming to see you, I already reported it to Organization X. Xue Wang and Lord Xiong did not object, they even hoped to communicate with you through me. Chris acted on his own, it wasn’t their wish."
"Whether it’s Haywes, Chris, or even Xue Wang and Lord Xiong, your Organization X keeps troubling me, and I’m very angry. I called you here for two reasons. First, to pass on a message: I, Gu Fan, officially declare war on Organization X. I will spend the rest of my life aiming to eradicate Organization X completely. Second, I hope you find a safe place and stay out of this," Gu Fan said earnestly, looking at Helen seriously, "For second granduncle’s sake, I don’t want to see you get hurt or be put in a difficult position in this struggle."
Helen was surprised, "What, Gu Fan? You want to take on Organization X? Do you have any idea how massive it is? Even what I know is just the tip of the iceberg."
"No matter how massive, I will take it down. As long as Organization X exists, I can never live in peace," Gu Fan’s solemn expression conveyed his determination to Helen.
Helen pleaded with good intentions, "Calm down, Gu Fan. I know Organization X has gone too far lately and angered you, but please trust me, the organization has realized that being too aggressive with you isn’t good, so they’re currently trying very hard to rectify this."
Gu Fan looked on with disdain, "It’s useless. A leopard never changes its spots. If they see an opportunity, I believe Organization X will still take action against me. So I’ve thought it over; only one of us can exist. Besides, I know Xue Wang too well. The guy is too petty."
"Actually, Xue Wang isn’t as narrow-minded as you think!" Helen tried to persuade Gu Fan but soon realized that he had a point. It really wasn’t wise to have any hope for Organization X.
Now Helen was in a difficult position. If a war broke out between Organization X and Gu Fan, she didn’t know where to stand.
Gu Fan added seriously, "Listen to me; you don’t have to get involved in this. Just stay neutral. As long as you stay neutral, you’ll still be Gu Wei, and I can also answer to second granduncle."
"Fine, I can stay out of it. I’ll pass on your declaration of war to Xue Wang and Lord Xiong, but are you sure about this?" Helen still seemed pessimistic and tried to persuade him kindly.
Gu Fan’s gaze was firm, "I cannot forget the ultimate sacrifice second granduncle made for our family’s safety and escape. For second granduncle’s sake, I must avenge this grudge. And I didn’t even settle the score with Organization X when Chris popped up causing trouble; they forced me to resolve to fight this out to the death."
Mentioning Gu Weihai’s affairs made Helen sorrowful, and her eyes began to redden.
Gu Fan knew he’d spoken out of turn and quickly comforted her, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring up second granduncle, but I just can’t let this go."
"It’s all right, it’s been so long, and I’ve come to terms with it." Helen wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, pretending to be strong, which only made her seem more pitiful.
Gu Fan continued, "Organization X harmed second granduncle; haven’t you thought about leaving Organization X?"
Helen shook her head with a bitter smile, "How do I leave? My blood is that of the X Family, my friends and relatives are all in Organization X. I can’t just forgo all my loved ones because of second granduncle."
"I understand. I won’t talk about you leaving Organization X again. It’s pointless anyway." Gu Fan then looked seriously at Helen, emphasizing his words, "The reason I called you here today was to ask you one more thing, can you tell me everything you know about Organization X?"
Helen gave him a look, sounded annoyed, "You’re going too far, Gu Fan. Unable to sway me to your side, you switch to fishing for intelligence. Now that you’re about to wage war against our Organization X, if I tell you about it, wouldn’t that make me a traitor? What happened to letting me stay neutral?"
"Sorry, I wasn’t being considerate." Gu Fan scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed. He vowed to wage war on Organization X, yet he didn’t even have a clear direction.
"Then, Helen, please pass on one more message for me. Give your Organization X three days to leave this city completely. Otherwise, I’ll take action to clean up. Even if it’s Haywes, Chris, or whoever, if they don’t leave, I’ll kick them out myself. And as for the Xue Jun, they’d better not expect to leave alive," Gu Fan stated firmly, showing no signs of jesting.
"Alright, I got it. I’ll make sure your message is heard," Helen said resignedly. She didn’t want to see an all-out war, but she did hope Gu Fan would cause some trouble for Organization X.
Afterward, Helen took her leave, driving away, stirring up clouds of dust in her wake.
As Gu Fan watched Helen’s sports car growing distant, he thought about something: if it’s too hard to completely eradicate Organization X, then removing some unfriendly individuals like Xue Wang and Lord Xiong to change the person in charge, such as Helen, would probably change the nature of Organization X.
"Help Helen rise to the top?" Gu Fan felt it was difficult because there were many people to remove, yet relatively, it certainly seemed easier than eradicating Organization X.
To handle a behemoth like Organization X, one would need to do a lot of things, to seek out many people, especially those daring enough to confront Organization X head-on.
Gu Fan thought of the Hunter’s Guild, an organization that specialized in giving Organization X a hard time, and considering their years-long strife, they surely knew many things about Organization X. Not only could he cooperate with them, but he could also gather a lot of intelligence about Organization X from them.
"My goodness, if only I had exchanged contact information with Irina earlier." Gu Fan regretted not amiably accepting Irina’s invitation at the time, and now he didn’t even know where to find them to frankly ask for help.
"Wait a second, the big boss is working with the Hunter’s Guild, so finding the big boss should do the trick." Gu Fan suddenly saw hope and dialed a familiar number, "Hello, my ex-girlfriend. It’s been a long time since we last saw each other. Let’s have dinner together."
With a click, the call ended as Leng Le hung up directly. She had no desire to see Gu Fan because it would only upset her.
