Chapter 158 The Smell of Blood
"How about we make a deal. As long as I don't change my mind, you are not allowed to run away. How about that?" Li Jinxing asked with a smile on his face.
Nie Yao met his smile, was silent for a moment, and shook her head to reject him: "Forget about the agreement, I never believe in these verbal promises..."
"Nie Yao, you..." Li Jinxing was stunned. Seeing her suddenly gloomy expression, he really wanted to know what she had experienced that made her so unconvinced by the so-called agreement!
But before he could ask, Nie Yao moved closer to him, sniffed him, frowned, and asked, "Strange, where have you been just now? Why do you smell like blood?"
Nie Yao touched his abdomen with some concern and asked, "Is the wound opening again?"
Li Jinxing held her hand, shook his head and explained with a smile: "Of course not, the wound is almost healed. As for the smell of blood..."
He paused here, then smiled nonchalantly, "I just met two guys who refused to tell the truth. Maybe they were contaminated by the blood they were interrogated with..."
Li Jinxing spoke casually, but Nie Yao was somewhat terrified. She asked hesitantly, "Interrogation? Li Jinxing, are they the same people who followed me last night?"
"Well, a few of the gang members who were in contact with the gang escaped, and two were captured..." Li Jinxing nodded slightly and replied calmly, "Those two were stubborn. They refused to reveal their superiors no matter what, so we had to use some ruthless tactics!"
Li Jinxing noticed Nie Yao's silence when he said this. He lowered his head to look at her and asked tentatively, "Are you scared?"
He wouldn't let her see those scenes, nor did he want her to think that he was a ruthless man...
"I'm not scared, I'm just worried..." Nie Yao said in a low voice.
What she was worried about was that Li Jinxing was still in danger, and she was even more worried that even if Li Jinxing used interrogation methods, he would not be able to make these people tell the truth, which only showed that the other party's methods were more cruel than Li Jinxing's!
"Don't worry..." Li Jinxing patted her shoulder and was about to comfort her when the driver stopped the car and said respectfully, "Master Jiu, we're here!"
Li Jinxing nodded slightly, and after the driver opened the car door, he got out of the car with Nie Yao and accompanied her directly into Yu Wanqing's villa with a swimming pool.
Yu Wanqing had been feeling a little restless, and was filled with regret and irritation about the accident that happened to Lin Anqi in her own villa.
As soon as she heard that Nie Yao was coming, Yu Wanqing immediately stood up to greet her. When she saw that the person who came out with Nie Yao was actually Master Li Jiu, she was stunned.
"Master Li... Master Li Jiu..." Yu Wanqing opened her mouth wide and stammered, "Why...why are you here?"
"What? Can't I come over?" Li Jinxing asked coldly.
"Of course not..." Yu Wanqing finally realized what was happening. She quickly waved her hands and gave an awkward laugh, saying, "I just didn't expect you to come today, so I was worried that I wouldn't be able to entertain you well enough..."
When she said this, she immediately took the initiative to welcome Li Jinxing and Nie Yao into the living room and sit down.
"Cousin, you don't have to deliberately entertain him. He happens to be free today, so he came with me to take a look..."
Nie Yao smiled faintly, stopping Yu Wanqing from ordering the maid to serve tea and water to her and Li Jinxing, and whispered a reminder: "I already told you on the phone just now that I came here because of Lin Anqi's matter!"
