Lu Chuan had also heard about Lin Lidong's affairs and knew that this guy was a ruthless person. As long as he took action, Li Meng would definitely die even if he didn't die.
So he asked the other brothers to stay where they were and he followed behind and went in.
As a scout, Lin Lidong could easily pick a lock with a paperclip, and as long as it wasn't a particularly complicated security door, he was basically no problem. But Lu Chuan was different. He started out as a thug, but now he was a businessman. He could drink, fight, and talk business, but he was completely incapable of these skills.
This led to him following Lin Lidong in, but he was blocked by the locked door for a long time. Finally, he found an unlocked window at the back of the house and successfully climbed in.
Strictly speaking, that woman saved Li Meng's life. Because if she hadn't been there tonight, Lin Lidong would have definitely acted without hesitation after entering the room. Without that five minutes of thinking time, when Lu Chuan rushed over later, he would have only seen a dead body!
Seeing Lin Lidong calm down, Lu Chuan also let go and whispered: "Dongzi, Li Meng can't be killed! At least, not now!"
Lin Lidong's eyes were filled with resentment, and he was still eager to try as he stared at the gleaming dagger. "Brother Dao, Li Meng is the enemy of the Daqin Group, and also my enemy. If I kill him, it has nothing to do with you, the Second Master, or the entire group. If anything goes wrong, I will bear the consequences and will not implicate anyone else!"
Lu Chuan glared and continued, "Everyone in Lujiu City knows that Daqin Group and Wenshan Commerce are sworn enemies. Even if you did it secretly, Li Meng's death will still be blamed on Second Master. What's more, you are now living in Second Master's house, and you risked your life to save Yu'er last time. In a sense, you are already a member of Daqin Group!
Many things are not something you can take on just because you say you can. An impulsive action may lead to a series of chain reactions!
The Second Master had just taken over the Daqin Group for a few years. To outsiders, he was like the old man of the Qin family, but in fact, he was still far behind the old man Qin.
Erye studied abroad when he was young, and he certainly has a good head for business. But he's new to society, hasn't experienced the bloodshed and tears, or the wickedness of human nature. In the underworld, he's not much different from Xiaotian and the others. Even I can only be considered a novice.
Daqin Group and Wenshan Trading are not ordinary companies in essence. Because of the different nature of the goods they transport, they must accurately grasp both the black and white sides.
If you kill Li Meng now, Wu Wenshan will definitely take action, and he will also have an excuse to do so. Second Master is not mature enough, and Wu Wenshan is already a cunning old fox. If we completely tear our faces apart and start a head-on battle, the chances of winning are extremely low!
Ask yourself, the Second Master treated you well, but because of one person, you destroyed him and even the entire Daqin Group. Is this the final result you wanted?!"
Lin Lidong's words instantly awakened him, and he realized that his ignorance and impulsiveness had nearly led to such a disaster. The murderous look in his eyes gradually dissipated. He took a deep breath and whispered, "Brother Dao, I understand."
The two of them whispered for a long time beside the bed. Li Meng was sleeping so soundly that he didn't notice anything, but the woman beside him was disturbed. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw two dark shadows leaning against the bed, one of them holding a shining dagger in his hand!
Following the woman's scream, Li Meng suddenly woke up from his sleep, sat up suddenly, and shouted sharply: "What's wrong!?"
If Li Meng didn't wake up, they could have persuaded Lin Lidong to stay calm and the two of them would have left quietly. But now that they had met, simply running away wasn't an option. Besides, who knew if there were other brothers living in the rooms downstairs? If they disturbed everyone, it would be difficult for them to escape!
Thinking of this, Lu Chuan quickly turned over, and while Li Meng was still not reacting, he jumped to the other side of the bed and put the blade in his hand against his throat!
Feeling the coldness on his neck, Li Meng regained consciousness. He looked up and saw Lu Chuan, his expression suddenly changed. Then he saw Lin Lidong standing beside him, and his heart sank even more. He stammered, "You...what do you want to do?!"
The arrow was on the string and had to be released. Although Lu Chuan had no intention of killing him, in order to keep him quiet and escape smoothly, he also put on a cruel look on his face: "Li Meng, things have changed. Back then at the seaport container, you gave me a lot of trouble. Today, letting me break an arm is a return gift. Isn't it too much?"
Lü Chuan and Lin Lidong were both ruthless men, and any one of them would kill without blinking an eye. Li Meng's heart was trembling, and he didn't dare to pretend to be ruthless at this time. He said in a gentle manner: "Lü Chuan... No, Brother Dao, you are also a gangster, you should understand that some things we younger brothers have no choice but to do. That day at the fishing port, no matter how hard we tried, at least we didn't leave you crippled. Now you come up and want to cut off my arm, you don't have to... you don't have to...
Let's wait for another day... No, tomorrow, I'll set up a table at the Lion Palace. Let's put aside the company's grudges for now and just talk about it as an individual, as an apology for what happened last time, okay?"
Li Meng was scared, and things became easier. Lu Chuan sneered, "You know the situation well and can still speak some righteous words at the critical moment. There's no need to set the table. I'm afraid it will be a Hongmen Banquet. I'll let you go this time, but next time, I won't take your arm, I'll take your life!"
Lin Lidong and Lu Chuan had been upstairs for a long time, far exceeding the ten-minute mark. You Tianfu and Hao Zhengguang were waiting anxiously downstairs. Seeing that fifteen minutes had already passed, You Tianfu finally couldn't sit still any longer. "Dongzi can't be this slow. He hasn't come down yet. Something must be wrong. Let's go in!"
The two men, extremely cautious, were about to get up and move when they were startled back by the sight of two headlights. A few seconds later, they saw an SUV approaching, stopping and turning off the engine about ten meters from Li Meng's house. Then, three figures got out, two in front and one behind, and walked forward.
In the darkness, You Tianfu couldn't see the appearance of the vehicle and thought it was just an ordinary passerby. In order not to expose himself, he had to wait patiently for them to pass.
The three figures walked very quickly, but suddenly stopped midway. The one on the left asked, "Are you sure it's Li Meng?"
The other man spoke in a deeper voice and nodded slightly, "That's right, otherwise I wouldn't have let you come. They're all in there, Brother Wu, you have to get him to give me an explanation for this!"
It was a dark and windy night. At first, You Tianfu didn't recognize the identities of these three people. But when he heard them talking, he felt that they sounded familiar. He stared at them carefully and heard Hao Zhengguang beside him whispering, "Brother Tian, aren't those Wu Feiyue and Liu Zhong? With them here, Dongzi will be in even greater danger!"
