Chapter 2845: Chapter 2845: Lee Yongjin’s Plea for Help
After finding Zhang Yongfu again, he discovered that he was exchanging pleasantries with Li Dongying.
The smug look on his face made Lin Yi feel shortchanged.
After returning to the car, Lin Yi called Lee Yongjin.
But after ringing several tis, it was automatically hung up.
“What the hell is this woman doing? Not answering my calls?”
About half an hour later, the group returned to the hotel.
Lin Yi called Lee Yongjin again, but still, no one answered.
This phenonon aroused suspicion in Lin Yi’s heart.
Yesterday, he sent her a ssage asking for help with so costics, but she didn’t reply.
Today, he made two calls, and still, no one answered.
Considering Lee Yongjin’s status, and at such a sensitive ti, it seed quite unusual.
After returning to the hotel, Lin Yi canceled his dinner plans with Lee Yongjin and had a casual al in the restaurant before returning to his room.
But soon after, there was a knock on the door that Lin Yi opened.
He thought it might be Zhang Xiaoyun or Li Yongnian, but the person standing outside was the hotel manager.
“Mr. Lin Yi, I am the hotel manager. I attended to you when you checked in.”
Lin Yi nodded in acknowledgnt.
“I rember you.”
“Here’s the thing, I have a letter here that Director Li asked to pass on to you.”
“From Lee Yongjin?”
Mumbling to himself, Lin Yi said:
“Thank you.”
“Just doing my duty, no need to thank , Mr. Lin Yi.”
With Lee Yongjin’s letter in hand, Lin Yi sat on the sofa, examining it repeatedly, realizing it wasn’t much of a letter, more like a note.
“Co to my place and take away.”
“Hmm?”
Hearing this, Lin Yi was stunned for a while.
The first possibility that ca to his mind was that Lee Yongjin was under house arrest.
But in this land, the Li family was like emperors.
As the head of the Li family, a person with the power to decide the fate of a nation, who would dare do such a thing to her?
Casually tearing up the note, he flushed it down the toilet.
Lin Yi changed into different clothes and asked the manager to prepare a car for him, then headed to Lee Yongjin’s house.
Jiangnan Rich District, Li Family Villa.
As dusk settled in, Lee Yongjin walked out of the bathroom in a white bathrobe.
Sitting on the sofa, she began trimming her nails.
But just then, a middle-aged man walked in from outside.
It was none other than the direct superior of Tiger Group 707, Li Yuanshi.
“Entering my house without my consent, do you really think that because you’re from the Tiger Group, I’d be afraid of you?”
“Miss Li, I didn’t an it that way.”
Li Yuanshi said very courteously:
“You’re involved in a business investigation case, and we need to take you back for investigation. I hope you cooperate, because remaining at ho won’t help.”
Lee Yongjin extended her smooth, jade-like foot, without even lifting her head, and said:
“Since when have business investigations beco Tiger Group’s responsibility? Did you lose face outside and co here to take it out on us?”
Focusing on trimming her toenails, Lee Yongjin said:
“If you have ti for this, I advise you to concentrate on training instead, lest you get bullied by the neighbors every ti you’re on a mission.”
The “neighbors” Lee Yongjin ntioned were led by Lin Yi, the Central Guards Brigade, sothing Li Yuanshi could naturally hear.
“Miss Li, now isn’t the ti for sarcasm, and you’re in no position to do so because you don’t truly understand the Tiger Group.”
“All I know is that our Li family provides so much equipnt and money each year, yet you haven’t achieved corresponding results.”
Lee Yongjin said:
“As for your purpose here, we all know it clearly. If you think you can force to compromise this way, you’re underestimating , Lee Yongjin.”
“Since Miss Li doesn’t want to cooperate, I have nothing more to say.” Li Yuanshi said:
“But I must tell you, all electronic signals around here have been jamd, and there are Tiger Group guards surrounding your villa. But rest assured, we will ensure regular food supply, and you won’t be mistreated.”
After speaking, Li Yuanshi left with swift strides, and Lee Yongjin’s expression turned grim.
Since their arrival here yesterday, she hadn’t received a single call or ssage. No need to guess, the signals must have been jamd.
Now, whether she could leave was entirely up to Lin Yi’s capability.
anwhile, people from Tiger Group 707 were stationed at various corners, ready to be alerted imdiately should anyone intrude.
“Director Li, how did the talk go? Is she willing to co with us?”
The captain of the Tiger Group, Jin Wulong, asked.
“She’s Lee Yongjin; she’d never compromise so easily.” Li Yuanshi replied:
“And our real aim isn’t to take her away, but to have her sign the contract, so we’re waiting for information from the other side. Once the contract is signed, there’s no need to guard here anymore.”
“But that man seems to be here. Could Lee Yongjin contact him in secret?”
“And so what if she does?” Li Yuanshi said confidently:
“We’re not on the island; any weapon can be used. Do you really fear him?”
Jin Wulong burst into laughter.
“With weapons in hand, how could we fear him? But we’re concerned about the degree of force.”
After lighting a cigarette casually, Jin Wulong said:
“This person has extraordinary influence and a substantial background. If we actually kill him, it could cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.”
“I’m aware of this. So when dealing with him, never think of killing.” Li Yuanshi said:
“If he really cos, persuade him to leave. If he doesn’t obey, shoot at non-lethal parts, just don’t kill him.”
“Understood.”
“Keep an eye here; I’m heading back.” Li Yuanshi said:
“It’s been two days; I doubt she can hold out much longer. Keep watching here, maybe we can leave tonight.”
“Got it.”
Li Yuanshi got in the car and left the villa district.
Jin Wulong picked up the radio and spoke to the mbers below:
“Everyone, stay alert at the designated positions, and report imdiately if any outsiders enter.”
“Understood!”
Simultaneously, Lin Yi drove towards the Jiangnan Villa District.
But from a distance, he stopped the car.
His keen insight told him that the situation at the villa was very abnormal.
Combining this with the note Lee Yongjin wrote, it was easy to guess that her ho was likely surrounded.
If he entered so blatantly, he would be at a disadvantage.
