Yu Shaolong was completely baffled.
What the fuck, wasn't Hei Long known as a ferocious figure in the underworld? Why did he run away as soon as he heard Xu Qianli's name?
What kind of background did Xu Qianli have? He had investigated thoroughly and knew he was just some town official, so what was he worth in Beijing?
How could such a nobody scare away Hei Long?
Unable to figure it out, Yu Shaolong decided not to think about it and started calling someone else.
The underworld wasn't only about Hei Long. If he could pay, why should he worry about not being able to hire someone?
But as he made several calls and mentioned Xu Qianli's name, each person was seriously scared, insisting they wouldn't dare take on the job. Some even advised him to pack up and flee, to hide in some corner of a foreign land.
After several calls, Yu Shaolong was totally dumbfounded.
