Chapter 142 Huang Jinhai was arrested

Lin Jianyan took a look down from the second floor. He recognized some of the people, but mostly he didn't. He was familiar with the ladies who had ordered clothes from him, but he didn't recognize many of the men in suits who were holding glasses of wine and chatting and laughing.

Qin Wu was socializing downstairs, and there was already a group of men surrounding him, like a star surrounding the moon.

He was wearing a neat black tailored suit, the slim fit perfectly accentuating his tall and muscular figure, and his carefully groomed hair made him look energetic yet steady. A low-key yet high-quality tie clip was pinned to his collar, which shimmered slightly under the light, showing his extraordinary taste.

The people around him were all smiling and came forward to talk to him in a flattering or complimenting manner.

Lin Jianyan leaned against the railing on the second floor, holding her chin and looking down at him with a smile. Qin Wu calmly responded to everyone, while occasionally looking towards the second floor.

When his eyes met Lin Jinyan's, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and his eyes were full of intimacy and tacit understanding that were difficult for others to detect.

The people around him looked up curiously following Qin Wu's gaze, and when they saw that it was Lin Jinyan, they immediately understood something. After all, Lin Jinyan was also famous in their circle. His design talent made many ladies and girls admire him, and everyone also knew about his relationship with the Qin family.

Lin Jianyan's smile deepened when she saw his gaze looking over here, and she waved her hand slightly at Qin Wu, looking casual and relaxed, as if the bustling crowd was nothing more than a background to set off each other in their eyes.

"Sorry, I have to leave in advance. I will chat with you all later." Qin Wu said casually with a smile and fondness in his eyes, holding the wine glass, then left the crowd and went up to the second floor.

Although everyone was curious, they were tactful and did not ask too many questions. They just smiled and nodded in response and continued their conversation. The topic changed naturally and people started chatting in twos and threes.

Qin Wu went upstairs and walked to Lin Jinyan, naturally hugging his waist. Lin Jinyan patted his dishonest paws and gently scolded him: "Be honest, don't do anything. What are you doing up here? Why don't you chat with them?"

Qin Wu rubbed his paws in grievance, "What are we talking about? There is nothing to talk about. If there is something to talk about, it is not at the banquet."

"Why don't you go down? Mrs. Chen and the others seemed to be looking for you just now."

Lin Jianyan shrugged, "Why would I go down there? As soon as I go down there, all those ladies will surround me. Besides, I'm not important in this occasion today, and I don't need to socialize. I'll just stay upstairs and take a look."

"I just told my sister-in-law that if they want to see me, she should ask Mrs. Chen and the others to go upstairs. If I go downstairs and get seen by those women, I won't be able to get away."

Qin Wu teased, "Yes, Mr. Lin is now the new noble in the fashion world, the new favorite of the ladies and young ladies, so he is loved by everyone. Unlike me, no one likes me."

Lin Jianyan showed a threatening smile and pinched his face, "Are you itchy again? How dare you talk to me like that."

Qin Wu took his hand, put it to his mouth and kissed it, "I was wrong, I was wrong, then I will let you do whatever you want tonight, okay?" His eyes were almost tearful when he said this, and Lin Jianyan felt like he had seen through her.

Lin Jianyan pulled her hand back and rolled her eyes at him, "You wish."

The two were flirting with each other when they saw Mrs. Li and Guo Juntao coming up. They returned to their normal state and greeted them with a smile.

Mrs. Li looked at them, a hint of mischief flashed in her eyes, and she covered her lips with her hand and let out a crisp laugh.

Guo Defeng was obviously not used to this situation. He coughed lightly to break the awkward silence and said to Qin Wu: "Hey, Qin Wu, I have something to ask you. Is it convenient for you now?"

Qin Wu nodded slightly, then glanced at Lin Jianyan quietly with a hint of soothing in his eyes, and then followed Guo Defeng to the side.

Mrs. Li: "Ayan, let's go over there and chat."

Lin Jianyan smiled and said, "Okay."

…

Qin Wu and Guo Juntao entered the private room. Guo Juntao offered him a cigarette, but Qin Wu shook his head to refuse, saying with a smile, "I've quit smoking."

Guo Juntao was slightly stunned and sighed: "It seems that Mr. Lin has really changed you a lot."

Qin Wu smiled softly, and the image of Lin Jinyan appeared in his mind, and his eyes softened unconsciously. "Maybe, after being with him, I always feel that some habits should be changed."

Guo Juntao couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw him like this. The once lawless little bully would eventually have to bow down to love.

Now standing in front of him was just a man who had been tamed by love and had become somewhat calm and restrained. It was incredible that love could change a person so thoroughly.

Guo Juntao lit up a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly blew out a few smoke rings. Then he got to the point, "Huang Jinhai was caught, but he still has a batch of smuggled hot weapons under him. We used threats and inducements, but he just refused to talk. His subordinates knew nothing about this matter."

Qin Wu frowned when he heard this, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, "That old fox Huang Jinhai! He refused to speak, maybe he was waiting for someone to rescue him or he had other plans."

Guo Juntao nodded in agreement and took another long puff of cigarette irritably. "He has been found to have killed several people. He can't get out. I'm afraid those weapons will fall into the hands of criminals."

"We have conducted a comprehensive investigation of his social network, but we still have no clues. So I want to ask if you have any ideas?"

Qin Wu frowned, his eyes full of solemnity and contemplation. He slowly walked to the window, staring at the busy traffic outside, and said after a moment: "Huang Jinhai has been in the underworld for so long, he is meticulous and suspicious. Routine investigations may not be able to touch him. I think we can start by checking his recent capital flows and secret transaction locations, and maybe we can find some clues."

Guo Juntao put out the cigarette in his hand and sighed, "We have checked all of this, but his financial situation is very hidden. We tried to track it down before, but we were confused by some complicated offshore accounts and shell companies."

Qin Wu turned around, crossed his arms, and continued calmly, "Then there is another risky move, which is gambling."

Guo Juntao asked doubtfully, "Bet?"

Qin Wu: "People who cooperated with Huang Jinhai will definitely be scared when they know that Huang Jinhai has been arrested. You can deliberately spread some rumors, pretending that you have grasped the key clues of their hiding place and are about to take large-scale actions, so that they feel that their situation is very dangerous. At this time, they may not be able to restrain themselves and take action, thus revealing their true colors."
