"Brother Wu, it's been so long, you can hardly understand human speech anymore. I'm asking you to come over, will you do me the honor?"
Zhang Desheng smiled, looking like a scoundrel.
Wu Ying dared not underestimate him; if he were easy to deal with, he wouldn't have become the head of the Fu family's You branch.
Zhang Desheng's face was covered by a black cloth, revealing only his eyes, which were staring straight at you.
Seeing that she couldn't reason with her, Wu Ying instinctively wanted to escape and took a step back...
A soft chuckle was heard, the dagger in his hand seemed to be poised to strike, and a low, hoarse voice rang out: "Trying to escape?"
He paused, seemingly quite interested: "Alright, I'll give you a minute. My men haven't played 'Eagle Catches Chicks' in ages..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Ying dared not entertain that thought again. He feared that if he made a move, the knife would be aimed at him immediately. Zhang Desheng's arrival here was certain that the surrounding troops had already been arranged.
He had nowhere left to retreat.
Thinking of this, Wu Ying couldn't help but curse Wen Yuennan inwardly for being useless. She even said that she had already seen that there was no one there. Was she blind? There were so many people standing there!
He forced a harmless smile: "Brother, you're joking. How could I refuse your invitation? I just don't know who I'll be meeting..."
Zhang Desheng rolled his eyes at him impatiently: "You'll know when you see me."
In the darkness, Wu Ying was blindfolded and led to a dilapidated old house. Shi Lingheng was already waiting there. He raised his hand and had someone remove the blindfold from Wu Ying's eyes.
Wu Ying recognized Shi Lingheng at a glance. Although he had never met him in person, he had once seen a family photo that Shi Lingyun kept in his wallet.
He tried his best to calm himself down. He still had a trump card. He thought that the information could probably save his life. With that thought, he relaxed a little.
This was the first time Shi Lingheng had met Wu Ying, but she was different from what he had imagined. She looked like a kind person, with a gentle and benevolent face.
He casually crossed one leg over the other, exuding a rebellious air that contrasted with his serious appearance.
"Find a seat yourself. When a guest arrives, pour them a drink."
Zhang Desheng responded, while Wu Ying sat down somewhat uneasily, pretending not to recognize Shi Lingheng, and forced a smile, saying, "I wonder what brings you here? Just say what's on your mind. This whole fuss is unnecessary, really unnecessary..."
Shi Lingheng propped his head up with his hand and watched him put on an act. After he finished speaking, he said with a half-smile, "Mr. Wu used to be a confidant of the Fu family. Now you're cooperating quite happily with the Wen family, aren't you?"
Wu Ying was quite prepared for this. The fact that Zhang Desheng was waiting in the courtyard to take him away probably meant that he had already figured out Wu Ying's connection with the Wen family.
He sighed, looking troubled: "It's just about making a living, but it's so hard for me..."
"oh……"
Shi Lingheng pulled his leg back and his arm back, his previously unruly demeanor instantly turning cold and stern: "Relying on selling information about the Fu family is quite difficult, isn't it?"
Wu Ying smiled knowingly, "I haven't yet had the pleasure of asking, but you are someone I've never met before..."
Zhang Desheng kicked him: "Stop pretending to be stupid. You're so familiar with the Wen family, how could you not know Mr. Shi? Don't push your luck. Answer whatever Mr. Shi asks..."
Wu Ying was kicked off the chair and fell over. She dared not play any more tricks. She was just glad that she was well-fed and had plenty of flesh on her body, otherwise she was afraid that her bones would have broken.
He's also someone who can be flexible and adaptable; he knows he can't fool everyone now...
