Chapter 85 – Gulf

Now Renato can trust very few people completely. Even the FBI and the police are not fully trusted. But he trusts Gao Guang extremely, because Gao Guang would have had countless opportunities to kill him if he wanted to.

So Renato should agree to Sofia's request, but Danny, who is arranging the evacuation, suddenly says, "Mr. Salvini, I can't gamble with your life. So, you have to decide which car to take. Also, I suggest that there should be a maximum of three people in one car, and you should also decide how to arrange the specific vehicles."

Renato hesitates for a moment and says, "I trust you."

Danny shakes his head and says, "This is not about trust, Mr. Salvini. As long as we leave here, we can ensure safety. It would be best for you to change cities, or you can even go to Italy for a vacation. Mr. Smith would be willing to lend you his private plane, and I will arrange a safe airport. You can directly board the plane with trusted people and the children. I guarantee that by the time you come back, the problem will be resolved."

After some thought, Renato nods and says, "Okay!"

Sofia is stunned. She looks at Gao Guang and is about to speak, but Danny quickly interrupts, "I'm willing to leave in the first car, mad dog."

Gao Guang is surprised and then hears Danny say casually, "I'll ride in your car. Let's be the first to leave. Alright, everyone, let's move."

Sofia is bewildered. She wants to say something, but in the end, she doesn't say anything. Renato urgently says, "Sofia, go change clothes. Louis, you too... "

No one mentions Gao Guang protecting Sofia and Louis anymore because missions always change over time.

Everything is going as planned by Danny.

The helicopter arrives, briefly lands for a while, and then flies away. There are still two police helicopters in the sky. However, about four to five hundred meters away from the villa, a flash appears on the ground, followed by another flash.

The flashes in the night sky are obvious. The pilot of the police helicopter, who has been monitoring the ground, immediately exclaims, "Missile! Missile! Oh my God, they launched a missile!"

This night will surely be remembered by all the residents of Beverly Hills. The most expensive community in the world is experiencing missile flashes.

Renato didn't see any of this because he was already in the car. But he heard the panicked shouts and conversations of the police through the intercom.

It was dark in the car, so Renato's expression couldn't be seen. But Robert, who was sitting next to Renato, heard the shouts through the intercom and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Oh my God, they really have missiles..."

Robert is shocked, but Renato sighs softly and says, "Leave the professional matters to the professionals. Let Danny handle Grayer."

Gao Guang and Danny didn't see the moment the missile was launched, but they were outside the car, so they saw the moment the helicopter was hit by the missile.

Gao Guang looks at Danny in shock and then says with extreme surprise, "They actually... really launched a missile!"

Danny smirks and says in a low voice, "Imagine this, if your career is ruined, your gang is disbanded, your only son is dead, your assets are frozen, and the whole United States is looking for you and will kill you immediately, but you still have twenty or thirty brothers and millions of dollars in cash, what would you do?"

"What else can I do? Of course, I would fight until the end. Death is certain, so I would find someone to take the fall before I die."

Danny nods and says, "Exactly, that's what Grayer thinks too."

After saying that, Danny turns around and says, "It's good news that there are missiles. It means it will be safer on the road. Let's go!"

Opening the back door of Gao Guang's car, Danny is about to get in when he sees Gao Guang open the passenger door. So he immediately says, "Sit in the back."

Gao Guang gets into the back seat, and Mike starts the car. Then, Gao Guang's car is the first to leave through Renato's gate. When Gao Guang's car starts moving, the cars behind also start and follow through the gate.

After Mike drives the car for a while, he asks in a muffled voice, "Where are we going?"

Danny replies without hesitation, "To your company. There's nothing for you here anymore."

Gao Guang is still very nervous because he's afraid of being ambushed by Grayer. So he can't help but rest his rifle on the car window. But Danny suddenly says, "Are you scared?"

"Yes."

"What are you scared of?"

"Of course, I'm scared of being killed."

Gao Guang finds Danny's question very strange, but Danny casually says, "You're wrong. We're in the first car, and the first car is the safest. In a battlefield, don't get on the first or the last car. But this is America, so just don't get on any car in the middle."

Gao Guang is taken aback and says, "Okay, I understand."

Mike just focuses on driving. He is also very nervous and keeps looking left and right while driving. So Danny suddenly says, "What are you looking at? Do you want to die? You're driving a cheap car that doesn't belong to this community. You're already a target. If you keep looking around like this, do you want to get shot?"

Mike is startled, and even though he has a bad temper, he knows who to listen to at this moment. So he immediately says, "How should I drive?"

"Drive at a steady speed, don't worry about anything, just keep going forward. Relax a bit. The more nervous you are, the more likely people will think there's an important person in the car. Relax, relax a bit."

Mike takes a few deep breaths, and then he stops looking left and right and focuses on driving.

The car drives quite far, and suddenly, Gao Guang seems to hear faint gunshots.

Mike slams on the brakes, and then he shouts loudly, "Gunshots! They're shooting!"

Gao Guang looks back through the rear window and shouts, "Reverse! No, turn around!"

"What are you doing?"

Danny suddenly shouts, and then he angrily says, "Drive! Forward! Don't slow down, don't stop the car! Nothing here has anything to do with you anymore!"

Gao Guang looks at Danny in astonishment, but in the darkness, he can't see Danny's face.

Mike is at a loss for what to do, and Danny grabs Gao Guang's clothes and says sternly, "Order your employees to leave!"

Gao Guang's mind is in a mess, but he immediately says, "Mike, go! Hurry!"

Mike starts the car, but he is still confused and says, "But our boss is behind us..."

Gao Guang regains his senses and says to Danny, "Don't we need to go back?"

"Why go back? Grayer will definitely arrange an ambush. There are police helicopters in the sky now, and dozens of cars are leaving in two different directions behind us. The attackers will just fire a few shots and then flee. If Renato didn't die in the recent attack, then he will be fine. If he's already dead, what's the point of going back?"

Gao Guang feels that something is not right, but he can't pinpoint what it is.

Mike, on the other hand, easily accepts Danny's theory. He mutters to himself, "That's right, that's how it is. Can we still get the boss's money?"

Danny doesn't say anything this time. He just sits quietly without turning his head.

Mike continues driving without stopping. But when they are close to the company, he sees a 24-hour fast food restaurant and hesitates, saying, "Can we eat... never mind, forget I asked."

The car continues driving until it reaches the company. After Gao Guang gets out of the car and opens the company's door, he turns around and says to Danny, "You don't need to..."

Gao Guang wants to ask if Sofia is safe, but Danny forcefully pushes him and then grabs his collar, walking inside.

Mike widens his eyes and raises his fist, but Gao Guang hurriedly says, "Stop! Don't!"

Danny shouts, "Do you want to die? You idiot, do you want to die?"

Mike stops raising his fist, but Danny has clearly misunderstood Gao Guang's intention to stop him. He grabs Gao Guang's clothes and angrily says, "Sofia's daughter practically worships you, and you did nothing! Huh? You did nothing!"

Gao Guang is at a loss for words, and Mike quickly says, "That's right! Sofia's eyes are practically glued to the boss. Her eyes are stuck on him like a fly stuck to honey. Love is pure, no, pure love is not hindered by status and wealth. She will definitely throw herself into the boss's arms willingly because the power of love is driving her and making her unable to control herself!"

"Shut up!"

Danny turns his head and shouts, surprising Mike into silence.

Danny lets go of Gao Guang and turns to look at him with a cold expression, saying, "Are you blind? Do you not have hands or feet? Sofia is just a little girl who doesn't understand anything. Maybe she will feel grateful to you for saving her life and develop some inexplicable feelings for you, or even fall in love with you. But Sofia is just a little girl who doesn't understand anything. Renato understands everything!"

Gao Guang's face turns pale, but he can't say anything.

"Do you know who Renato is? Do you think he's stupid? He's just busy. He just didn't see what you and his daughter looked like. If he saw, you would be dead!"

Sometimes, not refusing is equivalent to accepting, and not staying away is equivalent to getting closer.

Seeing Gao Guang not saying anything, Danny grabs him again and says in a serious tone, "Listen, Renato entrusted his daughter to you for protection not because his daughter likes you, but because you are a bodyguard! You're just a bodyguard! But if Renato finds out that his daughter is interested in a bodyguard, guess what? An angry father will do what? Let me tell you, he will make you disappear, forever disappear, and his precious daughter won't even know why you disappeared, no, she won't even know that you've disappeared!"

Mike's face turns pale, and he stares at Gao Guang, saying, "It can't be... Love, um, have you seen the movie where Harrison Ford and Whitney Houston played as bodyguards?"

Danny looks at Mike with a blank expression and says, "That's a movie. It's made into a movie because it's impossible. Also, the male lead is not Harrison Ford, it's Kevin Costner!"

Mike is speechless and can only scratch his head, saying, "Sorry, boss, I really didn't know... Maybe I'll understand when I become a star, but I'm sorry."

Danny looks at Gao Guang again and says coldly, "You're nothing. You're not even qualified to be a bodyguard. Understand your identity."

Gao Guang's face turns pale, and he silently nods. When Danny is about to say something else, Gao Guang whispers, "I understand, I will never get close to Sofia again, but... can I ask if Sofia is safe? I'm just a little worried, nothing else on my mind."

Danny sneers, "Of course, she's safe. If something happened to her, it wouldn't be so quiet here. If Renato didn't call me, then everything is fine. Listen, this is the last time you mention her. From now on, don't say her name from your mouth because you're not worthy. Understand?"

Gao Guang doesn't move, but Mike opens his arms wide.

"Don't move!"

Danny is surprised, looking at Gao Guang with an incredulous expression, "What did you say?"

Gao Guang points to Mike and says, "Don't move, go over there."

Mike angrily says, "This is too insulting!"

Danny looks at Gao Guang in astonishment and says, "What are you two doing?"

Gao Guang smiles reluctantly and says, "Thank you, I understand what you mean. Your words were a bit hurtful, um, but thank you."

Danny looks at Gao Guang for a moment, then shakes his head helplessly, and puts his hand on Gao Guang's shoulder, saying in a low voice, "Buddy, you're still young, you have plenty of opportunities in life, your road is still long. You will meet many good girls, but Renato's daughter is definitely not the right person for you."

"I know, I have no problem with that. I just..."

Gao Guang suddenly can't continue his insincere words.

After a moment of silence, Gao Guang calmly says, "I know you're right. Everything you said is right. My identity and status are not enough to match Renato's daughter, but I will work hard. I will earn a lot of money and become a big shot. Until the day I can date Sofia on equal terms!"

Danny smiles ironically and says, "Youth is wonderful."

Gao Guang is not angry or anxious. He calmly says, "But for now, I will never get close to Mr. Salvini's daughter again. I will immediately resign from this job."

"You're a smart guy. Just understand what you're doing. But there's no need to quit your job."

Danny says in a low voice, "You can earn a lot of money here with Renato. He needs people now. You did great today, and Renato is very satisfied with you. He even praised you to Mr. Smith. This is a good opportunity for you. Why would you leave?"

Gao Guang is puzzled. He looks at Mike and feels that only the two of them doing this job is not safe. And it seems that Danny can sense his concerns and says directly, "Call John and tell him to come immediately. Say there's an urgent matter."

Gao Guang looks at Danny in surprise, and Danny's face is full of impatience as he says, "I have to meet him in person. Don't say I'm here."

"Um, what do you want to do when you meet him?"

Danny takes a deep breath and says with annoyance, "I want to find something for him to do. Well, don't look at me like that. I want to wake up this idiot."

Gao Guang hesitates, not because he doesn't want to ask John for help, but because he doesn't want John and Danny to meet. Who knows what trouble these two will cause when they meet.

Seeing Gao Guang's expression, Danny is dissatisfied and says, "What did I come with you to this place for? Can't I educate you in the car? I came here to meet John. Hurry up, make the call."

Gao Guang thinks for a moment and says, "I can make the call, but if they really fight..."

Danny coldly smiles and says, "I will make him cry and apologize to me. Just watch."
