There was no longer any opportunity to search elsewhere, so Ye Fan said in a deep voice, "Take the safe and leave immediately. It's very dangerous here, they absolutely cannot be allowed to stay."
Ye Fan's face was somber. He could not leave any evidence behind this time. If Feng Xiao and the others caught wind of this, it would be impossible to explain.
Moreover, given Ye Fan's current status and position, if Feng Xiao caught him, the ensuing rumors would be extremely detrimental to his reputation.
After just winning the appraisal competition, being caught stealing would likely prevent Ye Fan from ever recovering his reputation.
Brother Dong's face was grim, clearly unwilling, but Ye Fan was right. This place was a hotbed of trouble and they couldn't linger.
Carrying the safe, and taking advantage of the absence of people outside the door, the two quickly rushed out.
However, as soon as they reached the staircase, several security guards came up from below, blocking their path.
"Who's there?"
A startled cry was followed by the security guards rushing up quickly.
"Take them out."
Ye Fan gave a decisive order. At this point, there was no longer any plan. The only option was to fight their way out.
With the strength of Ye Fan and Brother Dong, these security guards were no match for them.
In a few swift moves, they took down the security guards and rushed outwards.
Meanwhile, the other security guards had already caught up, shouting loudly from behind.
"Stop."
"Where are you running?"
"Kid, daring to cause trouble at a pawnshop, you're courting death."
The shouts continued, but Ye Fan and the others paid them no mind.
Anyone who blocked their path was simply pushed aside, without any hesitation.
With their combined strength, it only took them about ten minutes to rush out of the pawnshop.
"Split up and meet at Xiao Ran Pavilion. We cannot have anyone tailing us."
Ye Fan instructed sternly, then quickly ran towards the left.
Brother Dong turned to the right and ran without looking back.
Both Ye Fan and Brother Dong were incredibly fast, far beyond the capabilities of the pampered security guards.
Therefore, in just a dozen breaths, they had lost them.
Half an hour later, after confirming they were not being followed, Ye Fan and Brother Dong returned to Xiao Ran Pavilion one after another.
Upon entering Xiao Ran Pavilion, they quickly closed the door.
The street was quiet and deserted, as if nothing had happened.
But the entire Feng's Pawnshop and the Feng family were in complete chaos.
Upon receiving the news, Feng Xiao was immediately furious. He got out of bed and drove to the pawnshop.
"You bunch of trash, does the Feng family feed you for nothing?"
Feng Xiao shouted angrily at the dozens of security guards.
Dozens of people, yet they couldn't even guard a pawnshop. How could he not be enraged?
Not only that, but someone had moved freely in and out of the pawnshop right under their noses. This not only embarrassed the pawnshop but also the Feng family.
Anyone in such a situation would not remain calm.
The dozens of security guards lowered their heads, none daring to meet Feng Xiao's gaze. Kuaishuge
After severely reprimanding the security guards, Feng Xiao walked directly into the pawnshop to see what had been stolen.
Meanwhile, Ye Fan and Dongzi, along with others, were already gathered around the coffee table.
"You went out all night just to retrieve a safe?"
Old Gu asked with a frown, looking at the smiling faces of Ye Fan and Dongzi.
Although he didn't know where the safe came from, safes like this usually contained treasures. Old Gu wasn't particularly interested in treasures, especially those obtained through theft.
Ye Fan and Dongzi exchanged a glance, then Ye Fan chuckled, "Does Old Gu know about the Feng's Pawnshop?"
Hearing Ye Fan's question, Old Gu was slightly taken aback, then looked up at him, his eyes questioning.
"This safe was taken from Feng Xiao's office. I heard that Feng's Pawnshop had recently made several big deals, selling dozens of fakes and earning two hundred million. So, I went to take a look and see what items they had sold."
A cold smile played on Ye Fan's lips as he looked at Old Gu with amusement.
This time, it was Old Gu's turn to be stunned. "This was taken from Feng's Pawnshop?"
Old Gu's voice rose several decibels, clearly shocked by Ye Fan's words.
Ye Fan didn't explain further, but turned to Brother Dong and said, "Find a way to open it."
Brother Dong had already prepared the tools and smashed down on the safe.
After more than ten minutes, the combination lock was finally broken, and the lid was opened.
Inside the safe, there were no valuable treasures, but rather over a dozen ledgers.
After a brief flip through a few of them, Ye Fan tossed the ledgers onto the coffee table.
"These record all the recent transaction records of Feng's Pawnshop, and they also indicate which transactions were for fakes, and where they were made. They are very detailed."
Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, almost everyone was stunned, looking at the ledgers in disbelief.
"The Feng family truly deserves to die."
After a long silence, Old Gu gritted his teeth and said angrily.
This old man, much like Old Lei, had a special affection for antiques.
He particularly loathed the act of selling fakes.
Therefore, upon learning that the Feng family had been selling fakes all these years, Old Gu's anger erupted.
Ye Fan snorted, "These involve many influential figures, including the City Lord's Mansion and the Heavenly King's Mansion. If these account books were made public, the Feng family would likely be utterly ruined."
Looking at the accounts in the ledgers, it was simply appalling. Even Ye Fan was shocked.
Among them, only Old Li and Old Wang remained relatively calm.
After all, they had been involved in forgery at the factory before, so they were already accustomed to the Feng family's actions over the years.
"As long as these account books are in our hands, the Feng family will not dare to cause any major trouble, and Old Gu will be safe."
Once the Feng family knew that these account books were missing, they would likely focus all their efforts on finding them, leaving them with no time or inclination to investigate Old Gu's whereabouts. Even if they knew Old Gu was here, they wouldn't have the inclination to intervene further.
After all, family interests were paramount. If these accounts were leaked, as Ye Fan had said, the Feng family would be doomed.
Therefore, as long as the account books were in hand, Old Gu would be the safest.
Moreover, even if the Feng family were to spare no effort to deal with Old Gu, Ye Fan could use these account books to threaten them.
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Old Gu was slightly taken aback, then his eyes showed gratitude.
Initially, he thought Ye Fan had taken such risks just to target the Feng family. He never expected it was for his own safety. Truly, Ye Fan's actions were beyond his expectations.
