Chapter 610 Was it Qin Feng who killed Qianliu?

"I can't be sure who it is," Wen Zirou said, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"From what you're saying, you have someone you suspect?" Wen Luoyun asked nervously.

"Back then, Anya held a phone number and claimed that the owner of that number had sent a message to Anqing, asking her to go out. She came to question whether the owner of the number was from our Wen family."

Wen Zirou's eyes held a hint of reminiscence: "That phone number isn't from the Wen family, but I do recognize it."

"This person is..."

“His surname is Tang,” Wen Zirou said slowly.

"Boss Tang?" Wen Luoyun asked instinctively.

"How do you know? Do you know him?" Wen Zirou's eyes showed suspicion, after all, even she had never met Boss Tang.

Wen Luoyun had heard the name of Boss Tang from Wen Zirou before his arrest at the meeting that day. When she came to visit Wen Zirou in prison, she did not reveal her identity, partly to avoid causing any trouble, and partly because she did not want Wen Zirou to worry.

Realizing she had let something slip, she quickly made an excuse, saying, "I've only heard of him by name; rumors say he's elusive and rarely seen."

Wen Zirou knew that the Tang family was a top-tier wealthy family. She worked there, so it was not surprising that she knew these names. She suddenly realized and said, "I see. You are right. I am the same as you. I didn't know who Boss Tang was either."

Wen Luoyun frowned: "Since you had someone you suspected, why didn't you tell the An family back then?"

Wen Zirou's expression flashed with a hint of unease as she said, "Even if I told the An family about a person who is completely unreliable, they wouldn't believe me. At the time, they were convinced that the Wen family was responsible for the car accident, so it would be meaningless for me to say anything."

Looking at Wen Zirou's unnatural expression, Wen Luoyun knew that she had a deep connection with this Boss Tang back then. She figured that the reason she didn't mention Boss Tang to the An family was because she was afraid that the matter would implicate her and make things unclear.

She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I understand all of this. I will tell Luo Yun the truth."

Seeing her get up, Wen Zirou quickly said, "Dr. Xu, could you please pass on a message to Luo Yun and tell her to take care of herself? Our revenge... whether or not we take it is not important. What's important is that she lives her life well now."

Wen Luoyun paused, her eyes reddening.

Her own life? What life did she have left?

Having come this far, there's no turning back for her.

She slowly exhaled and smiled at Wen Zirou: "Okay, I will. You also... take care of yourself."

After leaving the prison, Wen Luoyun returned to her car.

The car heater had been on for a while before she felt the temperature in her limbs gradually return and her brain began to function normally again.

Her guess on the way here was correct—the An family and the Wen family had a grudge, and Kong Wange's mother was a member of the Wen family, so Anya was not close to her as well.

Therefore, the two have a natural conflict.

However... with Murong Ting protecting Kong Wange, this conflict did not escalate.

However, as long as there is a conflict, there is no shortage of opportunities to exploit it. She needs to find a way to escalate this conflict.

Kong Wange ruined her life, and she won't let her get away with it!

Wen Luoyun narrowed her eyes, a bold idea forming in her mind.

...

After making up her mind, Wen Luoyun stepped into the Tang family's house with great confidence, but she was surprised to find that the atmosphere inside was somewhat heavy.

As soon as she entered Tang Zhi's bedroom, before she could even knock, she heard a loud "smash" as a cup was smashed on the floor.

"Get out, get out!" Tang Zhi's voice, suppressing his anger, followed immediately, and Wen Luoyun's heart sank.

A moment later, Cui Mei, the maid who served Tang Zhi in his room, ran out, wiping away tears as she ran.

Seeing this, Wen Luoyun grabbed her and whispered, "What's wrong?"

"Miss Xu, you're finally back! Mr. Tang is in a bad mood, you should go and see him quickly." Cui Mei said, wiping away another tear, before rushing away.

"Who's outside?" Tang Zhi suddenly asked from inside the room.

Wen Luoyun took a deep breath, put on a smile, and stepped inside: "Master Tang, what's wrong? I heard you scolding the girl from afar. Did she do something wrong? I'll arrange for her to be replaced later."

When Tang Zhi saw that it was Wen Luoyun, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and he said in a deep voice, "Come here."

Wen Luoyun obediently swayed over and stood behind him, reaching out to gently massage his temples, her voice soft: "Master Tang, please tell me if the servants are sitting improperly, but please don't upset them."

Wen Luoyun's two moves clearly touched his heart; he closed his eyes, and his brows completely relaxed.

A moment later, he took her hand and brought her in front of him: "Where have you been?"

Wen Luoyun paused, then sighed: "Qianliu hasn't made any moves for so many days. I was worried about the jade pendant, so I went to inquire about the situation."

"What did you find out?" Tang Zhi looked at her with his deep gaze.

Wen Luoyun felt a little uneasy, but fortunately she had prepared for these questions in advance, so she pretended to be worried and said, "I didn't find out anything. I didn't even see Qianliu's face. That Shadow Gate is like an iron barrel inside and out. Not even a mosquito can fly in. Sigh, I have to say that Qianliu is capable. He actually managed to sneak in. It seems that getting the jade pendant is only a matter of time. I'm just worrying for nothing."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Zhi's expression suddenly darkened, and he stared at her, asking, "You really don't know?"

She paused, got up from his embrace, and tentatively asked in a low voice, "What do you know? Mr. Tang, you're so serious, could it be... that something went wrong with Qianliu?"

Tang Zhi grunted in response and said calmly, "Qianliu is dead."

"What?!" Wen Luoyun stared wide-eyed in feigned surprise: "How could he..."

Tang Zhi picked up a cigar from the side and lit it. Amidst the swirling smoke, he spoke with an unreadable expression, "Qianliu and his men have not been able to contact anyone for five days. The body was found by my men in a deserted well in a desolate mountain not long ago."

Wen Luoyun's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected that Tang Zhi's people had such abilities, that they could actually find Qian Liu's body.

Fortunately, she had already cleaned up her fingerprints, so even if the body were found, there would be no way to prove anything.

Taking a deep breath, she immediately put on a gritted-teeth expression: "The rumors are indeed true. Qin Feng, the leader of the Shadow Gate, is ruthless! He must have recognized Qian Liu's identity before he killed her."

"However, Mr. Tang, since Qin Feng knew that Qian Liu was your man, he didn't even ask him before disposing of him. He's showing you no respect whatsoever and openly slapping you in the face!"

"You think Qin Feng was the one who killed him?" Tang Zhi asked, looking at her.

Wen Luoyun said matter-of-factly, "Isn't it obvious? Who else could it be? Qianliu has been working undercover in the Shadow Gate all this time and hasn't come out at all. He must have been exposed and discovered by Qin Feng, which is why he was killed."
