Song Fan found it increasingly difficult to understand her father. He acted like he deeply loved his deceased wife, yet did all sorts of suspicious things.

She did not intend to confront Song Yi. Some things were best exposed when all the evidence was gathered.

She looked at the key to the safe in her hand and decided to go to the bank first.

Since she had left the hospital, a pair of eyes had been following her. Being an ex-mercenary, she had noticed immediately.

Song Fan ducked into an alley, waiting for her pursuer to come to her. But before she could turn around, she heard the sound of metal hitting the ground and a man screaming in pain.

Turning back, she saw Sun Gao twisting the arm of a man in gray. The man howled in agony.

“Miss Song, this guy was sneaking around, following you. He has a knife on him and clearly had bad intentions!” Sun Gao said, tightening his grip. “Stay still! If you don’t want to lose this arm, don’t move.”

The man, terrified by the threat, stopped struggling but continued to moan in pain.

Song Fan picked up the knife from the ground. It was small but sharp, not a toy. She examined it and coldly asked, “Who sent you to follow me? What do you want?”

The man turned his head away, remaining silent.

Sun Gao kicked him hard in the backside. “Answer the question!”

The pain made the man break out in a cold sweat, but he still refused to speak. He thought Song Fan, appearing delicate, couldn’t harm him, especially in broad daylight.

He was wrong. The next second, Song Fan slashed his pants with the knife, and blood flowed instantly.

“Ah! Ah!” The man looked at Song Fan in terror, unable to believe what he was seeing.

“The knife is sharp,” Song Fan said, playing with it. “Didn’t they tell you I’m just a little girl? They must have paid you a lot, thinking I was easy to deal with, right?”

She pressed the knife against the inside of the man’s thigh. “There’s a major artery here. What do you think will happen if I cut it?”

“I’ll talk!” the man pleaded. “Miss Song, I’ll talk, just don’t hurt me.”

He initially thought earning ten thousand yuan a day to follow a little girl was a great deal. But no one told him she was a black-hearted beauty, ruthless and deadly!

Song Fan motioned for Sun Gao to let go, then tapped the man’s head with the knife. “Speak.”

“It… it was Mrs. Song.” The man didn’t dare run. Song Fan in front was fierce, and the big guy behind was even scarier.

Song Fan hadn’t expected Meng Yu to be the one following her, but she remained silent, signaling the man to continue.

He confessed everything. Someone named Meng had hired him through an intermediary, promising ten thousand yuan a day to follow Song Fan. But it was his first day on the job when he got caught.

“I carried the knife for courage. I didn’t plan to harm you,” the man sobbed, tears and snot streaming. “And the mastermind must be Mrs. Song. The person who hired me is her relative, it’s certain.”

The man wasn’t stupid. Knowing he wouldn’t get paid, he decided to reveal everything.

“Do you have evidence?” Song Fan asked, still playing with the knife.

“Yes! Yes!” The man quickly pulled out his phone. “I have the transfer records and his photo. I secretly took a picture in case he didn’t pay. Yes, the transfer record has his name—Meng Lei. That’s him!”

Song Fan took the phone, transferred the evidence to her own, and then waved for the man to leave.

“What are you doing here?” Song Fan finally asked Sun Gao.

Sun Gao looked a bit embarrassed. “President Gu asked me to protect you secretly, worried someone might harm you. Am I not really being secretive?”

Afraid Song Fan might be upset, he quickly explained, “I swear I won’t interfere with your work. President Gu just wants to protect you.”

Knowing Gu Chen had sent him, Song Fan smiled, feeling a warm tingle in her heart.

“Alright, you don’t have to be secretive anymore. Come with me to the bank; I need to retrieve something.”

Sun Gao agreed quickly, discreetly notifying Gu Chen on his phone.
