Chapter 1338: Chapter 1338 Regret
“That might be because my mom doesn’t want others to know about these things, so she didn’t let you know,” seeing Wuyue’s worried and gloomy face, Luo Ziling quickly tried to console her: “If it were you, facing a similar situation, you wouldn’t tell others either.”
Wuyue nodded, feeling slightly less gloomy, but still a bit worried.
Luo Ziling was slightly disappointed that he couldn’t learn the details of the call Yang Yunlin made to Ling Ruonan from Wuyue, but he didn’t show it on his face. He imdiately changed the topic and asked about the interesting things that had happened since he left Yanjing.
“There hasn’t been anything important happening, everyone has been busy preparing for the New Year.”
“What about that incident last ti?”
Wuyue looked a bit embarrassed and said softly, “That case, it hasn’t been completely investigated.”
Wuyue, who had planned to talk to Luo Ziling about this later, ntioned it since Ziling asked.
Yang Qingyin rarely attended a class reunion, had a drink, and then felt dizzy. She was almost ruined by Lu Weiguang, and in the end, Luo Ziling got shot. This incident outraged Ling Ruonan, who imdiately arranged for many people to investigate the case.
The police also didn’t dare to take it lightly and put a lot of effort into the investigation.
However, the police investigation didn’t yield much result; all evidence only pointed to Lu Lianda and his son, Lu Weiguang.
Now, both Lu Lianda and Lu Weiguang are dead, and the police conclusion was accidental death and suicide out of guilt.
With the investigation reaching this point, it was more or less over.
But Ling Ruonan definitely didn’t agree, nor would she accept this conclusion.
Even with more evidence proving this point, she would still not believe it.
Wuyue felt the sa way.
That’s why, under Wuyue’s leadership, a lot of investigation was done.
It’s impossible for an investigation to yield no results.
Birds leave traces as they fly by, and people leave footprints as they walk; those who could utilize Lu’s father and son, no matter how capable they were, would definitely leave traces.
With her subordinates’ hard work, Wuyue successfully found so clues.
But to her regret, when they followed these clues, the progress was not as smooth as expected.
The person who planned this incident must have anticipated the possibility of exposure, so they made thorough preparations.
The clues they could find almost led their investigation into a dead end.
So clues pointed to the Chen Family, so to the Yang Family, the Ling Family, and the Fang Family; it felt like several renowned families of Yanjing all had so connection with this case.
Saying this, Wuyue felt a bit guilty speaking to Luo Ziling: “Young Master, our opponent is too cunning, and our capabilities are lacking, so we may not be able to completely investigate this case.”
“I had already anticipated this outco,” Luo Ziling said with a wry smile: “Those who plan such things, no matter which family they co from, are all old foxes, and they wouldn’t leave too many loopholes. The clues left behind are very likely to mislead us. However, this incident turning out this way is definitely beyond the planners’ expectations, at least, they didn’t plan for Lu’s father and son to die, which is definitely not part of their plan.”
“I understand,” Wuyue nodded, “So, we’ve been using this as our breakthrough to investigate, but unfortunately, we were still led astray. It seems they had already considered the possibility of letting Lu Lianda and his son die, therefore they could calmly erase all traces.”
“Alright,” Luo Ziling felt a bit regretful, but seeing Wuyue’s embarrassed face, he still offered consolation, “We can only say that they’re too cunning. But it’s alright; we didn’t die. In the future, I just need to be a little more careful. Plus, if they want dead, then I’ll make sure they don’t live comfortably either. I think, when it cos to doing these sneaky things, our people are no worse than theirs.”
Hearing Luo Ziling say this, helplessness quickly faded from Wuyue’s eyes and she nodded: “I know what to do now. Perhaps, if we take the initiative a few tis, we could scare the real culprits out, exposing those who really want you dead.”
“The people who want dead are certainly not just one, and perhaps all those you suspect wish for my death, so,” Luo Ziling said, chuckling softly, without finishing his sentence.
Wuyue understood what Luo Ziling ant and imdiately nodded: “Young Master, I got it.”
“If anything happens in Yanjing during the New Year, it should have nothing to do with us since we will be in Yuezhou.”
Seeing Luo Ziling’s seemingly harmless face while saying these words, Wuyue couldn’t help but sigh softly.
Wuyue actually admired Luo Ziling quite a bit. This young boy, who had not been in Yanjing for long, had beco very mature, at least in terms of thinking things through. And his heart was a bit ruthless, sowhat similar to Ling Ruonan’s.
Mother and son, the characters are indeed sowhat similar, this was Wuyue’s natural conclusion.
She also imdiately followed what Luo Ziling was implying, preparing to do sothing over the New Year as he suggested.
Of course, this matter still had to be discussed with Ling Ruonan. If Ling Ruonan agreed, then they could proceed; otherwise, Wuyue didn’t dare to decide on her own.
“Wuyue, has it been tough for you these days?” Seeing Wuyue lost in thought and not talking about the previous matters, Luo Ziling asked with concern: “You don’t look well, and you even have dark circles. You must pay attention to rest, or else you will beco a yellow-faced woman.”
Wuyue felt a warm heart upon hearing this, and an embarrassed expression appeared.
“Thank you for your concern, Young Master. I’ve had a lot of work recently, so I’ve often been busy until late at night. In a few days, it should get better.”
Seeing Wuyue showing an embarrassed expression in front of him, Luo Ziling felt warmly inside, “How about, I give you a massage to help you rejuvenate. You take a short nap, and I promise that you’ll feel more refreshed than if you had a full night’s sleep.”
Wuyue was imdiately tempted but finally shook her head: “Never mind, I need to go downstairs after Miss Luo and I finish talking. There’s still a lot of work left to do.”
“Then I’ll give you a massage when you’re going to sleep,” Luo Ziling smiled, “I’m going to give my mom a massage as well since she looks pretty tired. After she falls asleep, I’ll co over and give you a massage, how about that?”
Seeing Luo Ziling speaking so earnestly, Wuyue wanted to refuse, but she couldn’t bring herself to say the words.
After hesitating for a while, she finally stamred: “What if Miss Luo misunderstands?”
“If she’s asleep, what is there to misunderstand?” Luo Ziling burst into laughter, “Does she think that I will take advantage of you, or sleep over at your place?”
A few jokes made Wuyue blush bright red.
