This tactic really is a bit vicious. If the other side insists it was him who ordered it, then even without other witnesses or physical evidence, it would still be very hard to clear the suspicion. And if this person fell into the hands of the police, there'd be even more trouble.
The opponent's thod might be a bit clumsy, but it'll definitely have so effect.
Even if the police can't use this evidence to convict him, the trouble Luo Ziling runs into will still be a lot.
"We must get to the bottom of this and make an example out of it," Luo Ziling said, murderous intent in his eyes. "I won't allow sothing like this to happen again."
Wuyue agreed imdiately.
She didn't need Luo Ziling's orders; she was already digging into the follow-up.
"How's the investigation into Luo Yuqing's matter going?" Luo Ziling asked Wuyue again.
"We've already sent people to investigate. It's not that hard to get the full picture on this. I'd estimate we'll figure out the cause in two or three days at most!"
"Good."
Wuyue hesitated for a mont, then said, "I think these two things may be connected!"
Luo Ziling nodded. "I think so too."
"I will definitely find out the truth!" Wuyue promised, sounding almost like she was making a bet.
She felt extrely stifled and wanted badly to strike back hard.
Those opponents hiding who-knows-where, popping out from ti to ti to screw Luo Ziling over, were infuriating.
She was already planning to carefully design an operation to teach those potential enemies a lesson.
Otherwise, if they kept only reacting passively, life would be very hard.
"This thing shouldn't be the work of the Chen Family, and it shouldn't be Lin Zeping or Wang Zhengqiang either. The other families are all suspicious." Luo Ziling gave his assessnt. "So we need to focus on the unstable elents in those families."
Wuyue did have her doubts, but she only looked at Luo Ziling twice in puzzlent and didn't ask anything.
Luo Ziling knew Wuyue was confused, so he explained at once: "Lin Zeping and Wang Zhengqiang have both tried to cozy up to one after another. Even if they wanted to move against before, they definitely wouldn't this ti. As for the Chen Family, they've got their hands full. Neither Chen Ruchang nor Chen Yining nor Chen Yijing would have the ti or the mood to pull this kind of petty stunt, and Chen Yihe and Chen Yiping wouldn't do it either. So I think the most likely ones are Ling Zhengping, Yang Yunlin, and the Fang Family people."
After listening to Luo Ziling's analysis, Wuyue didn't completely let go of her suspicion, but she still expressed agreent.
While Luo Ziling and Wuyue were still discussing things, a ssage ca in.
Luo Ziling glanced at it—it was from Lin Lan.
"I need to talk to you tonight, I'll send you the room number in a bit."
Seeing this ssage, a chill ran through Luo Ziling's heart.
Even so, he still planned to go et Lin Lan, even if this woman forced herself on him.
After going over things with Wuyue for a while longer, Luo Ziling left first.
As Luo Ziling was leaving, Wuyue repeatedly instructed Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan to stay on high alert and protect Luo Ziling well.
If anything happened to Luo Ziling's safety, she'd never forgive the two of them.
Zhu Yijun and Shi Yidan naturally vowed they would do everything in their power to protect Luo Ziling and wouldn't dare slack off in the slightest.
On the way, Lin Lan called Luo Ziling and told him the eting location.
It was yet another room in a high-end hotel. Luo Ziling could already imagine what Lin Lan was going to do to him later.
But when he arrived at the hotel, he was surprised to find that Lin Lan wasn't the only one waiting there.
The long-unseen Kong Que was there as well.
"Two great beauties—this setup is kind of scaring ," he joked as he walked in. When he saw Lin Lan and Kong Que, both in casual clothes but exuding endless charm as they stood up together, Luo Ziling cracked a joke. "Two girls this gorgeous with figures like that, booking a room and waiting for … I'm afraid I won't have the strength to walk out of here tonight."
"What did you just say?" Kong Que's expression changed instantly.
Lin Lan's face also darkened, and she glared at Luo Ziling in annoyance.
Luo Ziling ignored their sudden change of expression. He plopped down on a chair and grinned. "Treating the two of you invalids is going to wear out. I'll probably collapse right here. By the way, did you bring anything to eat? I didn't get enough for dinner; we'd better prepare sothing to replenish my energy."
"I'll go buy so!" Lin Lan said, giving Luo Ziling another white-eyed glare before walking out of the room.
"Your survival instinct's pretty strong, huh?" Kong Que stared at Luo Ziling with clear annoyance.
"Of course my survival instinct is strong. Otherwise I'd have died a hundred tis already," Luo Ziling said righteously. "I know you just misunderstood . I just didn't expect the ideologically pure, red to the core Kong Que and Kong Que to have such dirty thoughts."
Kong Que glared again.
Luo Ziling still didn't care. He looked her over twice, then smiled brightly. "You must have sothing to talk to about, right? Are we going to talk first, or should I treat you first? Your complexion's gotten worse lately. I'm guessing you didn't listen to and didn't take good care of yourself."
"We talk first," Kong Que cald down and sat on the bed. She directly asked Luo Ziling, "Are you planning to fight the Chen Family to the bitter end?"
"I don't know how much you know about what I've run into lately. For soone like , who keeps getting plotted against, there's no way to live a peaceful life. Even if I successfully guard against them ninety-nine tis, if I fail once, I might die. Offense is the best defense—I believe that. So next I'm going to go on the offensive. I've just instructed Wuyue to take the initiative and do sothing." Saying this, Luo Ziling chuckled. "The people who want to kill —if I kill them first, my risk drops, doesn't it?"
"You're not afraid they'll crush you first?" Kong Que's voice was calm, as if Luo Ziling were talking about sothing that had nothing to do with her.
Luo Ziling looked completely nonchalant. "Whether I'm afraid or not doesn't matter. What matters is that the people who want to kill won't change their minds just because I'm scared or not. Maybe if I strike harder, they'll rein themselves in a bit. My people just caught soone who claid I ordered him to kill Chen Yijing. Tell , what's the difference whether I act or not? Even if I don't act, soone will fra ."
Kong Que wasn't moved by Luo Ziling's words at all; she went on speaking as if to herself: "You think that if you destroy the Chen Family, the others will start to be afraid?"
Luo Ziling shot back, "Don't you think so?"
Kong Que didn't answer and asked in return, "Have you thought out your exit strategy?"
Luo Ziling nodded. "Dragging the other families into this is my best way out."
"Then that's fine," Kong Que nodded lightly. "I actually admire your thods."
Luo Ziling glared at Kong Que in annoyance. "Don't talk nonsense. I haven't even started yet—what's there to admire?"
Kong Que looked at Luo Ziling like he was an idiot and didn't respond to that.
