The man glanced furtively at Lin and Jiang, then shook his head. "We're just following orders. Our boss told us to teach you a lesson, so we came."
"Who is your boss? Is he one of the people who ran away earlier?"
"No, no, they're all small fry. The 'boss' just issues the tasks, and we just do them. We don't know who the employer is."
Lu Zhengting increased the pressure on the foot that was pressing down on his chest.
"Are you going to talk or not? If you don't, your ribs are going to break."
The man gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know, I really don't know."
"I don't know yet!" The pressure on his foot increased again.
Seeing that things were going badly, Lin Hejiang was afraid that the man would tell the truth, so he suddenly squatted down and grabbed the man's neck. "Tell me quickly, who sent you to hurt my daughter? If you dare to hurt my daughter, I will not let you get away with it."
He pretended to be innocent, but secretly slipped a packet of powder into the man's hand.
The man took the powder and immediately threw it upwards towards Lin and Jiang, saying, "You're both going to die."
"What, what did you scatter?"
Lin Hejiang pretended to be drugged and fell heavily towards Lu Zhengting, thinking he could knock Lu Zhengting down and force him to let go of the man. However, after being knocked down, Lu Zhengting's foot, which was on the man, lifted off the ground, but he ended up grabbing the man's leg.
"Trying to run? No way!"
Lin Qingyan came over and took a sniff of the powder; it was just ordinary flour.
She had just observed Lin and Jiang's subtle actions; it was Lin and Jiang who slipped this thing into that person's hand.
Seeing that the man still couldn't escape, Lin and Jiang cursed him under their breath as an idiot.
How can he help the other party escape now?
Otherwise, if the other party exposes him, his plan will be ruined.
He glanced at Lu Zhengting, who had completely subdued the man and had his hands tied behind his back: "Aren't you going to tell me who ordered you to do this?"
"I, I really don't..." Suddenly he felt a heart-wrenching pain as his arm was twisted.
"Me, me."
"Aren't you going to tell me?"
Lin and Jiang punched him hard in the stomach, interrupting his previous words and rendering him unable to say anything else.
He actually wanted to prevent the other party from revealing the truth.
Lu Zhengting frowned and moved the assailant to a different position. At this moment, the assailant was having stomach spasms and was in so much pain that his mouth was wide open and he couldn't even speak.
Lu Zhengting raised an eyebrow at Lin Hejiang: "Do you want to beat him to death?"
"Yes, I'm going to beat him to death. Who told him to try to hurt my daughter?"
Lin Qingyan said, "Zhengting, it's not convenient to interrogate him here. Why don't we take him to the police station and let the police interrogate him properly?"
"good."
The next second, Lin and Jiang objected: "Letting the police interrogate him might not yield any results. What if the police can't find anything and release him? We might as well interrogate him ourselves."
Lin Qingyan insisted, "I think we should hand him over to the police and interrogate him ourselves. If the interrogation is too harsh, it will be considered vigilante justice. If something goes wrong, neither of us can afford the consequences. Zhengting, let's take him to the police station."
"Walk."
"this?"
Lin and Jiang were very anxious, and he tried his best to find a way to stop them.
He orchestrated this for two purposes. First, he thought that if Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting were easy to deal with, they could simply kidnap Lin Qingyan and use some means to extract the secret of the prescription from her.
Secondly, if these two people are difficult to deal with, he will temporarily appear and stage a scene of a father saving his own daughter to get Lin Qingyan involved and bring himself closer to her.
Unexpectedly, the people they found were so useless. Not only could they not defeat Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting, but they were also captured by Lu Zhengting.
If he kills that person now, will Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting hand him over to the police?
But murder is a capital offense, and he dared not take that risk.
What should he do?
Just then, Lin Qingyan said to him, "Thank you for your help earlier. Everything is fine now. You should go home and rest."
"Qing, Qingyan." His mind raced, and he said, "Can you...can you call me Dad?"
Lin Qingyan refused, casually saying, "Could it be that today's events were all a staged performance by you? Did you want to use this method to demonstrate your father's greatness, to move me, and to make me acknowledge you as my father?"
Lin Qingyan was just testing him, and he actually panicked.
"No, no, no, Qingyan, how could you think of your father like that? Your father's feelings for you are pure and innocent, without any impurities. Your father just happened to be passing by here. By saying that, you completely erase your father's sincere feelings for you. Your father will be very sad."
Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "I was just joking with you, don't take it seriously. Everything's really alright here, you can go home and rest now."
“It’s okay, Dad’s okay. I want to go with you to take him to the police station. I think it’s safer that way, and it can also protect your safety.”
"Alright then." Lin Qingyan wanted to see what other tricks he would pull. As long as he slipped up, she and Lu Zhengting would send him to the police station as well.
After much deliberation, Lin and Jiang checked their pockets and realized that this was the only way they could do it: to kill the man without anyone noticing.
The man was being held by Lu Zhengting. He walked over to the man and Lu Zhengting and said to Lu Zhengting, "Zhengting, you must be tired of holding him. Give him to me and let me hold him for a while."
"No need, I'm not tired. I only feel at ease when he's in my own hands. I'm afraid you won't be able to control him."
