“He’s been missing for so many years. I didn’t expect Lin Yi’s death to make him resurface,” Wang Tingshan narrowed his eyes and said.
“Dad, I heard you mention this person before. He seems to be very powerful.
Will there be any problem with this matter?”
Originally, Wang Mian did not know about this person. It was only recently that he heard the elders in his family talking about the past that he learned about Lin Jingzhan.
He also knew how glorious he was in Yanjing back then.
He was even more impressive than the current Lin Yi.
If such a person came back, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.
“I don’t think so. Yanjing is no longer the same as it was 20 years ago. It s impossible for him to control everything here!”
Wang Tingshan looked at Li Mi. “Other than that, what else did you find?”
“He must have been doing well overseas all these years. His subordinates are all foreigners, and they’re quite bold. They even dared to pull out their guns against the five great families. This needs to be noted.”
Chen Chufeng blew on the hot teacup and said indifferently,
“If Lu Beichen wasn’t backing him up, he probably wouldn’t dare to do this.
This is Huaxia. After so many years has passed, it’s no longer a place for him to behave atrociously.”
“Master, what should we do next?”
“Investigate further and see if there are any loopholes in this matter. Try not to give yourself away,” Wang Tingshan said leisurely, as if he was not worried at all.
Li Mi’s expression changed slightly. “Master, there’s actually something that
I’ve been wanting to say.”
“It’s fine. Just say it openly.”
“Even if we don’t reveal anything, it will arouse suspicion.” Li Mi said.
“In the entire Huaxia, there are no more than three families who have the ability to do such a thing. In addition, we have a grudge with Lin Yi, so we have a motive to attack him. Lu Beichen is a smart person. I think he might suspect
us.”
“I’ve already thought of this.” Wang Tingshan said,
“There’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. Us doing this would definitely arouse suspicion. There’s no doubt about it, but 1 didn’t leave any evidence behind. Lu Beichen can’t accuse me of doing it, let alone make a move against me. Although my Wang family has fallen, we’re still one of the top five families in Huaxia. No one can punish me.”
She was not prepared at all. The sudden bad news caught everyone off guard. Wang Ying didn’t want to leave Lin Yi’s tombstone for a long time. She didn’t leave until the garden was about to close.
Yanjing, Water Wrapped Hot Springs.
Lin Yi and Song Jinmin didn’t go anywhere for the entire afternoon.
They kept extending their time in the private room, ordering food when hungry and thoroughly enjoying themselves, feeling a sense of camaraderie.
After finishing the last session, Song Jinmin checked his watch and saw that it was already past ten.
“It’s about time. Let’s get to work.”
Song Jinmin raised his glass, clinked it with Lin Yi’s, and they both downed the remaining half bottle of beer. Stretching, they left the bathhouse, got into their car, and headed towards the Wang family residence.
At the same time, in the Wang family’s villa, only the light in the study was still on.
Wang Mian had already gone to rest, but Wang Tingshan and Chen Chufeng were still there.
“Looks like Lin Jingzhan is really finished. He actually left just like that,” Chen Chufeng sighed.
“I think it was Lu Beichen who gave in.” Wang Tingshan said.
“With his status, he must have secretly brought him here to Huaxia. He definitely can’t stay in Huaxia forever.”
“Lin Jingzhan is really lonely.” Chen Chufeng sighed and said,
“With Lin Jingzhan’s arrogant and despotic personality, if it was the old him, even if Lu Beichen had spoken, he wouldn’t have left just like that after such a big thing happened.”
“That’s what I thought too. I originally wanted to make some preparations, but now, he just left.” Wang Tingshan lit a cigarette and looked a little emotional. “The wheel of fate sure turns. He was so arrogant back then, and now he’s so pathetic. His son is dead, and he slinks away like this. He’s no longer the Lin Jingzhan of the past.”
“I’ve analyzed it. He’s just riding on the remnants of his old reputation, flaunting in Yanjing. He’s no longer as formidable as he once was.” “Isn’t that the truth? Elder Chen, it’s getting late. Let’s rest,” Wang Tingshan said as he stood up.
“Lin Jingzhan has left, so there’s no need to waste any more thoughts on him.”
“Let’s go.”
Wang Tingshan walked over and helped Chen Chufeng up to the guest room at the side.
The lights in the corridor on the second floor were off. Wang Tingshan was about to turn on the lights when he heard footsteps coming up the stairs.
This made the two of them feel even more puzzled and nervous.
There were only three people in the house. His son was already resting, so where did the footsteps come from?
Who would dare to barge into the Wang family’s home?
Soon, they saw a dark figure at the top of the stairs.
