"Yes, boss."
Jiang Meilan followed the instructions and walked up to Ye Qingqin. "Miss Ye, please!"
Ye Qingqin nodded slightly to her.
Then, looking at Lin Jingyu with a serious expression, he said, "Thank you, I owe you my life!"
"You're welcome. I'm just glad you're alright."
Lin Jingyu smiled slightly and said, "Let's go downstairs first. We don't know if they have any accomplices. Let's avoid unnecessary trouble."
"good!"
The three of them quickly left the small suite.
I waved and hailed a taxi, watching them get in and drive away.
...
About an hour.
Jiang Meilan came back first.
By the way, "Boss, the Ye brothers said they'll take some time in the next couple of days to come and thank you."
"It doesn't matter whether you come or not."
Lin Jingyu casually replied, "I saved people only because of General Ye's influence."
"A life was lost; they should come and thank them."
Jiang Meilan spoke her mind.
"I don't care whether you're thankful or not."
Lin Jingyu frowned. "Xiangdu is getting more and more chaotic. I hope the Ye siblings can behave themselves. If they accidentally become cannon fodder, I won't be able to explain it to General Ye."
"They're not the boss's people."
Jiang Meilan couldn't help but say again, "The boss doesn't need to be responsible for their safety."
Even if you're working for the boss, you can't blame anyone else no matter what happens.
Everyone is responsible for their own responsibilities and their own life.
"That makes sense."
Lin Jingyu smiled slightly and nodded, "However, people like to take their anger out on others. Sometimes, even when it has nothing to do with the person, they still take their anger out on someone else."
Besides, I promised General Ye I would take care of him, so I'll do my best.
"The boss is kind and benevolent."
"Just doing my part."
...
evening.
Guo Xiaohua and Lü Zhengxing appeared at the same time.
Peng Shici and Chen Xinyue have also returned.
The group gathered together, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
"Looks like you've figured out the reason?"
Lin Jingyu brewed a cup of hot tea for everyone and asked them a question.
"It's not a complicated matter."
Lu Zhengxing nodded in response, "We figured out what was going on in just a few hours, but it was somewhat unexpected."
"What happened?"
Peng Shiyu asked curiously, "How come we didn't know?"
"It's normal that you don't know what happened today."
Lin Jingyu smiled, looked at Chen Xinyue, and said, "Maybe it has something to do with your family, Miss."
"What does this have to do with my family?"
Chen Xinyue was extremely surprised, then suddenly a thought flashed through her mind, "The Ye siblings?"
Lin Jingyu nodded, "That's right, to be precise, it's Ye Qingqin."
"Weren't they, brother and sister, just doing business obediently?"
Peng Shiyu asked, puzzled, "What trouble have you gotten yourself into now?"
"I don't know either."
Lin Jingyu raised an eyebrow. "Today, when I was passing by a certain Wen Road in my car, Ye Qingqin was shouting for help from a second-floor window..."
After recounting the rescue, he added, "As for the inside story, I don't know. I only know that she was deceived."
Looking at Lü Zhengxing, he said, "You should have investigated this thoroughly and tell us the truth."
"That kid isn't one of our gang members."
Lu Zhengxing said directly, "He is an unemployed vagrant who works with a small gang. These people will do anything for money."
They'll do anything to make money: kidnapping, extortion, gambling, prostitution, selling people and hearts—they'll do it all.
It can be said that this group of people has no bottom line or morality; they are utterly wicked.
We didn't usually notice them.
Although all the things they do seem utterly immoral, their methods are actually quite subtle.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to do this on our turf without us noticing.
"wrong."
Lin Jingyu immediately noticed the problem: "You said it was a small group, which is enough to show that their abilities are limited. If they didn't have anyone behind them, you couldn't have missed it."
"Junior Sister Lin is so smart."
Lu Zhengxing couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Just as you predicted, this small gang not only has powerful backers, but they are not ordinary people either."
"who?"
Peng Shiyu asked out of curiosity.
Lü Zhengxing responded with a smile, "You'd never guess."
"So it has nothing to do with your gang members."
Chen Xinyue picked up the conversation, "So, only the British side is left, and they have connections with the government?"
"It wasn't the British."
Lü Zhengxing laughed and said, "Try to guess again."
"If it's not an Englishman, then is it some other foreigner?"
Peng Shiyu shared her guess.
As far as she knew, the small gangs and cliques in Xiangdu were all organized by people from some place or country who came to Xiangdu to make a living.
"They are indeed other foreigners."
Lu Zhengxing glanced at them and said, "They are foreigners you are very familiar with."
"You little devils!"
Lin Jingyu blurted out.
In her mind, every Japanese soldier was deeply sinful, a beast whose hands were stained with blood and who deserved to die.
This gang now specializes in committing heinous crimes, and she's certain they're connected to people in this country.
"Junior Sister Lin guessed correctly."
Lu Zhengxing nodded with a smile, "The investigation revealed that the people behind this group are the Japanese."
"So, the Japanese have their eyes on Ye Qingqin?"
Lin Jingyu frowned. "If the Japanese knew Ye Qingqin's identity, they would understand that she has connections with the Chen family and me."
