Chapter 280: Devastation



A look from Su Xiaoli was enough to seriously injure Ling Yicheng more than his own fist.

Ling Yicheng suddenly felt so embarrassed that his face turned red.

After a long while, he finally managed a forced smile: "Xiao Li..."

This expression was exactly the same as when he apologized while holding the lunch box after breaking her arm with a punch.

Looks expectant: I’m waiting for you to scold me.

Ling Yicheng felt like he was being fried in oil.

I want to tell her everything, but I can't tell her anything. The road ahead is dangerous. The more Xiaoli knows, the more dangerous it will be...

I could only look at her anxiously.

No matter whether she knew it or not, or whether she understood it or not, Ling Yicheng just wanted to remember her latest appearance and slowly chew and ruminate on it in the difficult and lonely days to come.

In the end, Su Xiaoli sighed and didn't even want to say an opening line. She asked directly, "How many more days will you stay in Beijing?"

Her tone was a little cold, but also had a unique sweetness. Ling Yicheng wanted to get closer to her but didn't dare to say it out loud, so he could only respond softly.

"Two days at most."

"Where do you live?"

"China Harbor Building."

"Both of them, too?"

"no."

Su Xiaoli asked a question and Ling Yicheng answered it obediently.

Just like squeezing toothpaste, every bit counts.

"Yeah." Su Xiaoli finished silently, and then put on a professional smile that could not be more "warm".

Because Kuang Jiaming brought Lin Manrong back.

"Take your time to shop around. I have something else to do so I'll have to excuse you first. If you need anything, just go find the manager and tell me your name for a 22% discount."

Su Xiaoli kept her professional smile on, neither too far nor too close, and there was nothing wrong at all.

Before leaving, she took advantage of Lin Manrong's inattention and winked at Kuang Jiaming.

Kuang Jiaming received the signal and understood.

Unfortunately, this look was also seen by Ling Yicheng, who pretended to be indifferent but was always alert.

He lowered his eyelids, his eyes were gloomy, and he suppressed the surging pain with silence.

There are weeds and thorns everywhere.

Sure enough, not long after Su Xiaoli left, Kuang Jiaming also left under the pretext of going to the bathroom and disappeared.

Ling Yicheng pretended to be relaxed and continued strolling with Lin Manrong.

Lin Manrong recalled the look in Ling Yicheng's eyes as he looked at Su Xiaoli's back just now, and resentment flashed across her eyes.

When Kuang Jiaming was not around, she immediately tried her best to seduce Ling Yicheng to come back to his senses. However, although this man seemed uninhibited and casual, he was actually stubborn and vigilant in his bones and was not easy to please.

She leaned towards Ling Yicheng intentionally or unintentionally.

Ling Yicheng knew that the fish was gradually entering the net, but at this moment he had no intention of completing the task.

He forced himself to deal with it, no longer showing the enthusiasm he had shown when he helped her put on the necklace. He just pretended to be casual and tempted Lin Manrong to tell him more about Su Xiaoli's recent situation.

On the other side, Su Xiaoli returned to the mall's office and quickly called Gu Feihan.

Unfortunately... no one answered for a long time.

As soon as she put down the phone, there was a knock on the door.

Kuang Jiaming came up.

"Bathroom" time is tight, a cup of tea at most.

After Kuang Jiaming left, Su Xiaoli stared at the tea he had only taken a sip of and was in a daze for a while.

It seems that Lin Er did not completely trust Kuang Jiaming. He did not know much, but even the little he knew was enough to make people frightened.

Such a long time has passed, I'm sure Zheng Bo must have found out a lot about the Lin family.

During the overseas call, Zheng Bo gave more details.

But...Zheng Bo's hand cannot reach the mainland, so it seems that this part can only be supplemented by Ling Yicheng himself.

At this moment, Su Xiaoli missed Gu Feihan very much.

It would be great if he was there, he could discuss things with him and get things done, or simply push Ling Yicheng to him to handle it.

No matter what means are used, Gu Feihan, the uncle of the family, will bring the brat back to a safe place so that he can meet Ms. Lin Yaru with dignity in the future.

It was a pity that she called Gu Feihan twice more, but still no one answered...

Su Xiaoli sighed, gritted her teeth, drove back to the China Port Building, found the hotel guest check-in list and started looking at it.

Ling Yicheng lay on the bed in the hotel room with his clothes on, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

After being sent back by Lin Manrong and the others, he didn't know how long he maintained this posture.

I can't think clearly and my mind is very confused.

The chandelier on the ceiling was soft and moderate, but it was so bright that it made it difficult to open your eyes.

Ling Yicheng originally thought that if he cleaned himself up, studied hard, and did legitimate business, he could get closer to Su Xiaoli.

Now, he thinks it's a joke.

Xiaoli's world and his world are getting further and further apart.

She has a family, Gu Feihan, attends a top university in China, and has hundreds of millions of wealth around the world.

I heard from the woman surnamed Lin that there was a boy surnamed Lu who also claimed to be her "fiancé", or her "brother" in name only.

Fuck, who knows.

The young master of the Lu Group is probably not a good person.

Even Kuang Jiaming, who was right in front of him, was doing everything he could to seize the opportunity to get close to Xiao Li, wasn't he?

Those reckless and impulsive thoughts in her heart, growing wildly and blooming secretly... what else could it be but a joke? What was this mess of his to her? It was already rotten, and now, oh, it was getting rottener and rottener.

Not only is it rotten, it's also bloody and cruel.

"Flat meetings" and "short meetings" are no longer allowed, and "gambling venues" and "usury" are being investigated more and more strictly.

Ever since the big sister passed away, the old man handed over the "golden running business" that the big sister used to be in charge of to him.

On par with Li Yong’s “underground bank”.

Compared with the smuggling of items that he was responsible for before, the "smuggling of gold" was a real big piece of fat meat.

Recently, under his iron-fisted management, the money he "earned" has even shown a tendency to surpass that of "underground banks".

Ling Yicheng is now only one step away from hell.

One of the businesses of "gold smuggling" is to collect gold from those daring individual gold miners in the Kunqi Mountain area in the west.

Where does the gold in the hands of those individual gold miners come from?

As early as a few months ago, Ling Yicheng went to Kunqi Mountain in person to take over the "gold dealer" business.

After witnessing the unscrupulous means used by individual gold diggers, I realized that what he did in Cheongju was just a drop in the bucket.

Stupidity and ignorance, selfishness and greed are fully displayed in those people.

Wherever they stepped on, there was either devastation or chaos.

Tens of thousands of gold miners dominated the natural grasslands under the Kunqi Mountains and plundered the grasslands.

They dug up the grass and dug three feet deep into the ground to get sand and pan for gold. Even the grass roots were not spared and they used them to make fire and cook. Large areas of grassland were riddled with holes and billions of tons of sand and rocks rushed into the river.

The most serious thing is that in addition to sand and gravel, sodium cyanide from alchemical waste was also washed into the river...

Of course Ling Yicheng remembered that when Xiao Li taught him chemistry, he specifically emphasized that sodium cyanide is highly toxic and can cause poisoning and death if it comes into contact with skin wounds, is inhaled, or is swallowed in small amounts.

Even a little bit can be fatal, not to mention so much sodium cyanide is exposed in broad daylight.

Those individual alchemy factory owners have no idea what a purification device is, and have never even heard of it. (End of this chapter)
