A decade of deep affection was misplaced. Lu Zheng gave up invitations from top tech companies to dedicate himself to supporting Jiang Li'er's family business. However, on the eve of the Ne...
Lu Zheng thought this person might be Zhou Jiaxing.
Zhou Heng definitely wouldn't do that; that old fox is more cunning than anyone else.
With the Xia family backing him up right now, and Zhou Heng about to be purged, Lu Zheng is definitely in a hurry to deal with the troubles. He has no time to deal with Lu Zheng, nor does he dare to.
However, when Lu Zheng left Mingjia Village, he noticed the look in Zhou Jiaxing's eyes, which was full of hatred towards him. Therefore, Lu Zheng felt that it was more likely that Zhou Jiaxing wanted to take revenge on him.
The two assassins looked at Lu Zheng with smiles; his statement that money was not a problem had pleased them greatly.
Moreover, they didn't want to make a move in the ancient city of Aoya.
One of them chuckled and said, "Then you'll have to pay extra for the questions you asked."
Lu Zheng chuckled and said, "No problem."
The assassin then said, "Jiang Li'er!"
Um?
Jiang Li'er?
To be honest, Lu Zheng never expected Jiang Li'er to come here to take revenge on him.
It's not that Jiang Li'er couldn't bear it or dared not do anything; the main problem was that Jiang Li'er had no money.
If she continues to cause trouble like this, the Jiang Group might really collapse.
But then I remembered that on the day Zhou Mobei went in, Jiang Li'er had begged me again.
When Jiang Li'er went to Mingjia Village to resolve the matter, she did not appear there. This woman was hiding her anger and waiting for an opportunity.
Perhaps she felt that she had finally found the right opportunity?
Just as he was thinking about this, his phone rang.
I looked at it and it was a text message.
The two assassins in front of him suddenly tensed up and yelled at Lu Zheng, "Who sent the message? Give it to me!"
These assassins were afraid that Lu Zheng would call the police.
The police in the ancient city of Aoya are very efficient. Once they confirm the identity of the killers, they will take action immediately without any hesitation.
Moreover, once these people are caught, the punishment they face will be extremely cruel, and torture will certainly be a part of it.
That's why they were so emotional.
Lu Zheng remained calm; he had already seen who sent the message—it was from Jiang Tai.
Since it was him, it wasn't sent by the police.
Without hesitation, Lu Zheng threw his phone on the ground and said, "You guys have to give it back to me after you're done reading this. I want to see why Jiang Tai messaged me."
The two assassins picked up their phones, glanced at them, and, seeing that it wasn't a message from the police, breathed a sigh of relief.
They then tossed the phone to Lu Zheng: "Here you go."
Taking the phone, Lu Zheng glanced at it. Jiang Tai's message was a plea for help. He said to Lu Zheng, "Lu Zheng, please save Li'er! Li'er has gone to Fran Ancient City... I know our Jiang family has wronged you, but for the sake of our past relationship..."
When Lu Zheng saw the message from Jiang Tai, he was utterly speechless. The Jiang family really had the word "shameless" written all over their faces.
Based on past relationships?
How did the Jiang family treat Lu Zheng in the past? Was there any affection shown to them during that time?
Jiang Tai actually brought up the word "sentiment" at this moment; I really don't know what he was thinking.
Moreover, what did his daughter mean by going to Frangu City? Wasn't it to kill Lu Zheng?
Since the goal is to kill Lu Zheng, then where is the affection involved?
Lu Zheng was too lazy to even acknowledge the message. He simply put his phone in his pocket without saying a word, and he didn't even bother to reply to it.
Then Lu Zheng said, "Give me your account details, and I'll transfer the money to you now."
Upon hearing this, the two assassins immediately nodded.
But after a moment of silence, one of them suddenly turned his eyes and called out to Lu Zheng with a smile, "Mr. Lu?"
Lu Zheng was taken aback and looked up at the other person: "What's wrong?"
“Jiang Li’er wants to pay money to save your life. Now you’ve already paid more than she has. So, can you tell us if you want her life? If so, add another sum of money.”
These people are truly insatiable.
However, Lu Zheng is not Jiang Li'er.
He wouldn't do something as heinous as murder and robbery.
So he shook his head: "No need, let her go."
Lu Zheng will seek revenge in a different way.
After returning, Lu Zheng made Jiang Li'er watch her company crumble little by little.
As for now, Lu Zheng has neither the inclination nor the desire to do so.
"hehe……"
Upon hearing Lu Zheng's words, the two assassins simultaneously clicked their tongues and said, "Mr. Lu is truly kind-hearted. Alright then."
...
This was just a minor incident for Lu Zheng, and there was no trouble at all, but for Jiang Li'er, it was fraught with danger.
The moment Lu Zheng entertained the thought of killing someone, as soon as the money arrived, those people would immediately target Jiang Li'er.
These people are used to killing and robbing.
They never show the slightest mercy when they kill, regardless of gender, age, or appearance... anyone is simply a money bag in their hands.
Sometimes they would even kill their own people; once they suspected someone of being a traitor, they would not hesitate for a moment.
So Jiang Li'er is now in a den of wolves, and the leader of the gang is using listening devices to let her hear all the assassins' communications.
Jiang Li'er was trembling at this moment.
The flight attendant had already told her when she got off the plane that it was dangerous here and that she should not associate with the local gangs, not even if it meant paying them.
Because these people kill based entirely on their mood, and rules are nothing to them.
They kill the people around them whenever they want.
But Jiang Li'er really went mad in her desire to take revenge on Lu Zheng.
It wasn't until she stepped into this den of dragons and tigers that she realized what danger truly meant.
Hearing that Lu Zheng didn't say he wanted her dead, she finally felt relieved.
The gang leader glanced at Jiang Li'er and said, "Looks like this kid doesn't want you dead. You actually want to kill a kid like him? But you're lucky. Let's leave it at that for now. You can go."
Jiang Li'er was in a state of utter confusion.
She knew she had just been very close to death.
If Lu Zheng hadn't spared her, she would be a corpse by now.
When she came out of that awful place, she felt her body trembling uncontrollably.
That fear made her panic terribly.
But she dared not linger for even a moment.
This time her mind was clear, unlike before when she was blinded by revenge.
Although she still decided to take revenge on Lu Zheng, if given another chance, she would never come to a place like Fran Ancient City.
This time she finally realized that she should take out some very ordinary clothes from her bag and put them on. She even took some mud and smeared it all over her face to make herself look like a beggar, so that she would feel better.
