1660 Knew Shangguan Tong
The middle-aged man knelt on the ground for some time before the pain passed. However, he was unable to stand properly after suffering the kick.
He raised his head looking at the man sitting on the main seat in disbelief.
They had a powerful backer, but Huo Jinfeng paid him no respect and even dared to touch him.
Sure enough, the clan leader of the Huo family was a cold, ruthless man.
Fan Shun glanced at the middle-aged man. He had to stop him from blurting out nonsense. He took two steps forward and said, “My apologies, Mr. Huo. My friend has a blunt personality. Please don’t take it to heart.”
The middle-aged man squeezed his hands and lowered his head to apologize since he was on Huo Jinfeng’s territory.
Huo Jinfeng sat on the main seat with an imposing aura. He said nothing and simply glanced in Fan Shun’s direction mildly. For a moment, the air in the room felt thin.
After the scary silence went on for two minutes, Huo Jinfeng finally said succinctly, “Five minutes.”
Despite his short sentence, everyone knew what he meant.
Fan Shun had five minutes to talk to Huo Jinfeng.
This was enough for Fan Shun. He bent over to help the kneeling middle-aged man up and said, “Mr. Huo, allow me to introduce my friend. His name is Shangguan Hou.”
Huo Jinfeng had never heard about Shangguan Hou previously. He said nothing and simply waited for Fan Shun to go on.
Fan Shun waited for Shangguan Hou to steady himself before he let go of his hand. He looked at Huo Jinfeng. “I hear you have been looking for a woman called Mi Tong. Mr. Shangguan happens to know her.”
The moment Huo Jinfeng heard the name, his mind went blank. His hand trembled subtly as it lay on the armrest.
After all these years, no one had ever mentioned this name again. It was so long that it seemed as though the name never appeared in his life previously.
Huo Jinfeng snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Shangguan Hou. “Do you know her?”
Shangguan Hou leaned sideways slightly with his hands on his thigh. The expression on his face remained stiff and expressionless. Ever since Huo Jinfeng’s subordinate kicked him, he had put away his airs.
Before long, he said, “I naturally know her. Her name isn’t Mi Tong. It’s Shangguan Tong.”
Shangguan Tong?
Huo Jinfeng was briefly stunned. He did not expect her to give him a fake name.
Shangguan Hou could tell Huo Jinfeng did not believe him. He took out his phone, swiped down to a picture, and held it in mid-air. “You might recognize this photo.”
Huo Jinfeng’s subordinate walked over, took the phone, and handed it to Huo Jinfeng reverently.
Huo Jinfeng gradually turned to look at the phone. The moment he saw the picture on the phone, the coldness on his face cracked visibly.
Shangguan Hou caught the change in Huo Jinfeng’s mood. Sure enough, he was looking for Shangguan Tong. He pursed his lips and continued. “People from the Shangguan family usually don’t use their real names. It’s normal for her to lie to you, Mr. Huo.”
Huo Jinfeng was not paying attention to Shangguan Hou at all. All his attention was on the photo on the phone.
The quality of the picture was decent, so it did not seem to be an old photo.
