Luo Fei was quite composed.
But Su Manying, on the other hand, was evidently a bit upset.
To ease the awkward atmosphere,
Li Yaoming simply suggested,
"Friends, it's fate that we et, so I think, why don't we all go for a simple al together?"
"Consider it my treat to welco you all."
However, seeing Secretary Li's face full of smiles, brimming with expectation,
Su Qingng suddenly covered her mouth.
"Team Leader Luo, I might be airsick; my stomach feels uncomfortable. If we are going to eat, you go ahead. I'll just skip it."
Noticing her beautiful eyes frantically signaling him.
Luo Fei naturally understood Su Qingng's intentions.
But he instead said very seriously.
"Mr. Li, since we need your help to assist in the investigation, I also hope you could learn more about the person we're looking for."
"So I think it would be better if you went to the hotel first with Captain Song, who is local."
"I'll take Miss Li to buy so stomach dicine, and we'll join you shortly?"
Upon hearing Luo Fei's suggestion,
Li Yaoming quickly agreed.
"Alright, Team Leader Luo, give your phone number, and I'll send you the hotel address and room number shortly."
With the exchange of information,
Luo Fei got into the taxi with Li Yu and Su Manying.
Only after waving goodbye to Li Yaoming,
did Su Manying ask in confusion,
"Team Leader Luo, why did you agree to that guy's request? I really don't get it!"
Seeing that Su Manying was very angry,
Luo Fei had to console her.
"Miss Su, although this Secretary Li might not be much of a person, I think he must be a prominent figure in the local business circle. If he can help us find soone, wouldn't that be much more convenient than searching blindly on our own?"
"Also, through interacting with him, we might be able to uncover so clues related to the case from years ago. I don't believe Wang Chuan's death didn't affect him at all."
Luo Fei's words made Su Manying realize,
"Oh, so Team Leader Luo is deliberately getting close to him to find so leads?"
"Of course. If you got angry and went to the hotel with him directly like before, you might not be able to control your temper. Even if he knew sothing, he probably wouldn't tell us then."
Hearing Luo Fei's confident words,
Su Manying hesitated a bit,
"Team Leader Luo, how can you be sure he'll definitely tell us everything he knows?"
Seeing Su Manying's doubtful look,
with beautiful eyes filled with unease,
Luo Fei spoke seriously,
"Miss Su, although it's not a hundred percent certain, since he ca to receive us, perhaps he's heard so rumors."
"So I have reason to suspect he might be wanting to voluntarily admit his mistakes to us to seek certain help, to ensure he doesn't end up like Wang Chuan."
Luo Fei's analysis significantly cooled down Su Manying's fiery temper.
"Team Leader Luo, I'm glad you can consider issues from my perspective and even went out of your way to comfort ."
"But I know Li Yaoming. He used to only pay lip service and brownnose; I don't believe he'd change his nature completely after so many years."
Seeing Su Manying speak seriously, sowhat sternly,
Luo Fei smiled,
"Miss Su, of course, we can't easily change a person's nature. But we can seize the indecisive ntality he's in now."
"Could it be that Team Leader Luo has so thod to make him obediently reveal the truth of the past?"
Almost simultaneously,
Su Manying also looked at Luo Fei,
her face showing so hesitation.
Luo Fei smiled noncommittally,
"Of course, but if I were to achieve this, I might need Miss Su to cooperate actively."
With so hesitation in his tone,
Su Manying also responded noncommittally,
"Team Leader Luo, whatever you need to do, feel free to ask. As long as we can solve the case, I'm willing to do anything."
Su Manying knew,
her only hope now was Luo Fei.
She could only trust him.
As long as they could find out the truth, she was willing to pay any price.
"Miss Su, there's no need to be too nervous. What I want you to do is actually quite simple."
Luo Fei said this, whispering to Su Manying.
After hearing his words,
Su Manying found it sowhat unbelievable,
"Team Leader Luo, if I do this, will it really make him change his mind?"
Su Manying was in disbelief,
almost unable to believe her ears.
Luo Fei smiled noncommittally again,
"Miss Su, you heard right. As long as you do as I say, I guarantee Li Yaoming will be willing to actively cooperate in the investigation and tell us the truth."
"If that's the case, Team Leader Luo, let's go and et them!"
Seeing Su Manying readily agree,
willing to go et the others with him,
Luo Fei felt reassured.
"Miss Su, we have to agree in advance; once we et him, you must control your emotions and not lose your temper carelessly."
"Don't worry, I'll do my best not to get angry. Are you reassured now?"
Su Manying looked at Luo Fei with so anticipation,
her attitude a complete reversal from earlier.
Luo Fei nodded,
telling the driver the restaurant's address.
Over ten minutes later,
they arrived at the hotel downstairs.
The hotel's lobby manager also ca out to welco them eagerly,
"Hello, Team Leader Luo, our boss Li has been waiting for a long ti upstairs."
