Chapter 941: Resignation

"What kind of promise do we have between us? I've only met you a couple of times," Deng Fuguo said. At the time, he agreed with Liu Rui only because he was worried about his father's health. To put it bluntly, it was just a stalling tactic. Moreover, getting his father released wasn't as simple as it seemed. Even if he had the power to do so, he wasn't willing to take the risk.

"Are you sure you won't release my father?" Liu Rui asked finally, his face darkened.

"Of course. Your father isn't someone who can be released just like that. He's a national criminal. I don't have that kind of authority," Deng Fuguo replied.

Liu Rui finally understood. He couldn't count on this person anymore; he was just a big liar. He didn't understand how he could so easily believe his words initially.

For the first time, he made such a grave error in such an important matter.
