223: Chapter 223: Investigation 223: Chapter 223: Investigation Chen Yang rode his electric tricycle around the entire Maotou Village.
He discovered that besides so construction vehicles for demolition, there wasn’t the off-road vehicle that Zhang Xueying had ntioned.
“Could it be, that last ti Brother Long took the opportunity to retaliate and had soone drive a car to ram into Elder Zhang?”
Watching the bustling construction crew, Chen Yang thought to himself.
No sooner had this thought occurred to him than he took out his mobile phone and made a call to Li Han.
He also told her what happened today and shared his own speculations.
Li Han, on the phone, was noticeably shocked after hearing about the events.
At the sa ti, she, like Chen Yang, sensed the sll of conspiracy.
“This matter is indeed not simple.
I have also visited Maotou Village.
Normally, it’s not possible to drive so fast on those roads.
The only possibility is that Elder Zhang was targeted,” analyzed Li Han.
Chen Yang nodded.
“That’s what I thought too, so I called you hoping you could help investigate it a bit.”
Li Han was quick-witted; as soon as Chen Yang said this, she imdiately understood what he ant.
“You have a suspect in mind, don’t you?”
Li Han tentatively asked.
“Yes, I do,” Chen Yang did not hide anything, but admitted it directly.
“Who do you suspect?” Li Han asked.
“I suspect it was Wang Long from last ti.
Only he had past grievances with Elder Zhang, and since you are conducting construction here, it’s normal for vehicles to pass through this area,” Chen Yang explained his suspicions and reasoning thoroughly.
Li Han on the phone was silent upon hearing Wang Long’s na.
After being silent for more than ten seconds, Li Han suddenly said, “Chen Yang, actually, the construction site no longer belongs to our Li Family.”
“It no longer belongs to your Li Family?
Hasn’t your Li Family always been in charge of the demolition work here?” Chen Yang was sowhat astounded.
“So things have happened recently, leading my father to transfer the project to soone else,” Li Han explained.
Hearing this news, Chen Yang was truly astounded.
He couldn’t believe that such a big project had been handed over to soone else by the Li Family.
That was just too strange.
Unable to contain his curiosity, Chen Yang asked, “Transferred to whom?”
“The Gu Family!”
Li Han imdiately responded.
“The Gu Family?” Chen Yang was taken aback!
This outco was completely unexpected.
“The Gu Family even kidnapped you last ti, how could your father transfer such a big project to them?”
After being astonished, Chen Yang imdiately inquired.
The fact that the Li Family had transferred such a major project as a highway to the Gu Family, was indeed shocking.
“A lot has happened recently, and it can’t be explained in just a few words.
I’ll explain it to you so other ti.
For now, I’ll go inquire about Wang Long and see if he had a hand in this,” Li Han spoke in a subdued tone as she ntioned the Gu Family.
She seed not to want to talk too much about the Gu Family.
Seeing Li Han say this, Chen Yang could only nod in agreent.
“Alright, please look into it for , and I’ll await your news.”
After speaking, Chen Yang hung up the phone and then his gaze involuntarily turned toward the direction of the construction crew.
“I really didn’t expect the Gu Family to be so capable, to have taken over such a big project from the Li Family in just a short period of ti.”
Chen Yang took a deep breath, gaining a new respect for the capabilities of the Gu Family.
I’m still too young.
My views on the Gu Family were too simplistic.
Chen Yang thought so to himself, but had no fear of the Gu Family.
The Gu Family, though a behemoth among businessn, was just a group of wealthy people in his eyes.
Being a loner, he was not beholden to the Gu Family.
After watching the construction crew for a while, Chen Yang saw that it was getting late, so he rode his electric tricycle back to Liuhexiang Village.
Having returned to the village, Chen Yang received a callback from Li Han.
“Li Han, have you figured it out?” Chen Yang asked as he answered the phone.
“Yes, I have figured it out,”
Li Han spoke unhurriedly, “However, it wasn’t Wang Long who did it!”
“Not Wang Long?” Chen Yang was astonished.
“Right, I investigated Wang Long.
Ever since that incident, he has been quite honest and doesn’t harbor any thoughts of revenge,” Li Han explained.
“Okay, now I know.”
Hearing it wasn’t Wang Long, Chen Yang was imdiately baffled.
The Zhang Xueying family was usually very decent; they shouldn’t have offended anyone.
Who could have gone after Old Master Zhang?
As Chen Yang was puzzling over this, Li Han suddenly spoke up on the phone.
“Chen Yang, actually, I have another suspect, but I’m not sure either.”
“Who?” Chen Yang imdiately asked.
“I suspect it was soone from the Gu Family!” Li Han said seriously.
“The Gu Family?” Chen Yang’s pupils constricted as he began to ponder.
However, Li Han was the first to analyze the situation.
“Yes, the Gu Family.”
“The Gu Family is known to be very ruthless and vengeful.”
“Since you saved last ti, they probably still hold a grudge, which is why they targeted Old Master Zhang.”
Li Han’s analysis sounded very convincing.
Chen Yang fell silent for a mont.
And his mind also began to agree with Li Han’s speculation.
Chen Yang was well aware that his feud with the Gu Family was not just about this.
Not only did he fight Gu Ming to save Li Han, but he also took over their mining vein.
Therefore, considering all this, their targeting of Old Master Zhang made sense.
“What a Gu Family, utterly ruthless!
To take revenge on , they even targeted Old Master Zhang, absolutely unforgivable!”
Chen Yang said furiously.
On the other end of the phone, listening to Chen Yang’s angry voice, Li Han quickly interjected, “Chen Yang, don’t get worked up, this is just my speculation and there’s no solid evidence!”
Li Han was worried Chen Yang might rush into confronting the Gu Family in his agitation.
That would turn into a huge ss if it turned out not to be the Gu Family’s doing.
However, Chen Yang was not soone who acted recklessly without clear evidence.
“Thank you, Li Han.
I understand all that.
I won’t move against the Gu Family without evidence, rest assured.”
Chen Yang managed to calm himself a bit before saying this.
“Mm-hmm, as long as you stay calm.
I’ll keep an eye on this case, and if I find out anything, I’ll contact you right away,” Li Han said.
Chen Yang nodded, “Okay, then I’m counting on you.”
After finishing their conversation, they hung up the phone.
Chen Yang lay in the rocking chair, contemplating seriously Li Han’s words.
After so deliberation, Chen Yang was almost certain that it was the Gu Family who had acted.
Otherwise, how could the Zhang Xueying family have such a formidable enemy?
“Utterly detestable!
If they can’t reach , they harm those around ; I’ll make sure they regret it if I catch them next ti,” Chen Yang said angrily.
Chen Yang spent the entire afternoon fuming in the dical clinic.
As the day was about to turn to dusk, Chen Yang suddenly received another phone call.
