Chapter 105
Cheng Lang's face turned slightly cold when he heard the report that someone was coming. He turned sideways and made a hushed gesture to Yi Ning, then walked to the door and asked, "Is Luo Shenyuan here?"
The people outside responded, and Cheng Lang said, "Take someone to stop him first." He picked up the dagger that had fallen on the ground and put it into his sleeve. He glanced at Luo Yining and said softly, "Wait a moment, I'll be back after I deal with him."
After hearing what he said, Yi Ning immediately stood up, grabbed him and asked, "Don't leave yet. Tell me, what are you doing?"
Luo Shenyuan is acting mysteriously, and Cheng Lang is not afraid to kidnap Sun Congwan... What are these people doing?
Since she asked, how could Cheng Lang not answer? Moreover, he looked down at her holding his hand...
He thought about the development of the matter and patiently explained to her: "This is about the corruption and bribery case of Liu Pu, the governor of Zhejiang Province. The case involves Lu Jiaxue and Wang Yuan. Your third brother Luo Shenyuan arrested a confidant of Liu Pu, probably to interrogate him for the details of Liu Pu's bribery. So Lu Jiaxue asked me to find this person... Now, may I call you Yining?" His voice dropped, and the subject suddenly changed. He lowered his head and looked at her hopefully, saying, "Of course... I can't call you by your original name, but if I call you cousin again, I really want to kill myself..."
Yining didn't expect him to bring this up so suddenly. She nodded and said, "Just call me Yining."
Cheng Lang smiled and continued to ask, "Then why do you still call me A Lang?"
Yi Ning looked at his delicate and elegant features. He was truly handsome. It wasn't obvious when he was little, but he had grown up to be a truly graceful and elegant man. No wonder so many women liked him... But Cheng Lang was now her cousin, so how could she call him A Lang? But thinking of how he'd cried just now, it was hard to refuse.
Yi Ning really didn't like her soft-heartedness, even though she was clearly being harmed by Cheng Lang. She also knew that no matter what, Cheng Lang was no longer the little A Lang.
Cheng Lang's heart sank when he saw her hesitate. He walked closer and tried to hold Yining's hand, but Yining avoided him.
"You..." Cheng Lang took another step closer and forcibly pulled her, his tone a little heavy, "But blame me? Blame me for not saving you that time... If I knew it was you, I would kill Shen Yu immediately!"
Yining shook her head and said, "How old are you now? And I'm not the same Yining anymore... There are differences between men and women."
Cheng Lang looked at her soft little hands in his hands, and suddenly felt something strange. Yes, he was an adult now, and she was no longer the same person...
But Yining had already withdrawn her hand. She walked over, picked up the soaked paper scraps from the fish tank, and began to decipher the words on them bit by bit.
It was indeed Luo Shenyuan's handwriting. It roughly suggested that a close confidant had confessed something about Liu Pu, but what it was was unclear. After reading it, she washed her hands with water from the fish tank and asked Cheng Lang, "Do you have a handkerchief?" She had just given it to Sun Congwan.
Why would Cheng Lang carry a sweat towel with him?
Yi Ning turned around and saw Cheng Lang coming over. He took her hand and wiped it with his sleeve. Yi Ning was startled by his sudden action, but Cheng Lang held her hand and wiped it dry before letting go.
Yining could only say thank you.
Someone else came outside, and this time the person reporting was a little hurried: "Master Cheng, our people can't stop him... They've already gone upstairs!"
Cheng Lang let go of Yining's hand and sneered, "Then wait for him to come up. I also want to meet him."
Yining raised her head and suddenly called out to him, "Alang..."
Cheng Lang looked back at her, seemingly listening carefully to what she was saying. Yi Ning paused and asked, "What exactly are you doing following Lu Jiaxue now?" She could tell that Cheng Lang didn't seem so loyal to Lu Jiaxue. If he was truly loyal to Lu Jiaxue, he wouldn't have told her about Liu Pu.
"I was still young when you died. Your death was unclear, but I know you were murdered." Cheng Lang paused slightly.
"The man who killed you is now the most powerful man in the world."
Cheng Lang seemed to know something… Yi Ning was stunned when she heard his words. In fact, she had always been guessing, as had Xie Min. Cheng Lang still said the same thing. She wanted to ask him a few more questions, but outside, she heard hurried and chaotic footsteps and even the sound of weapons clashing.
Yi Ning thought about the contents of the letter, she hesitated for a moment, and still did not tell Cheng Lang.
Cheng Lang shouldn't go against Luo Shenyuan, he can't beat Luo Shenyuan.
Cheng Lang was extremely intelligent, but he had one flaw compared to Luo Shenyuan. He wasn't ruthless enough. Who could be as ruthless as Luo Shenyuan?
The people outside had probably been subdued, and the noise gradually died down. A voice came faintly, "Master Cheng, your actions are ungentlemanly, aren't they? If you want to fight, just come at me openly. Why are you kidnapping my family?"
Luo Shenyuan should be standing outside the door by now. But the guards at his door were Lu Jiaxue's personal soldiers. Since he didn't come in, these personal soldiers must still be guarding the door.
Cheng Lang straightened his clothes. He had indeed been too excited when facing Yi Ning just now. Now that he opened the door, he finally regained some composure. He took a step forward and said with a smile, "Lord Luo, please don't speak carelessly. I just happened to meet you two. How can you say I'm kidnapping you?"
Yi Ning followed him out and saw Luo Shenyuan standing outside the door, his figure as slender as a pine tree, accompanied by a group of guards. He must have just returned from the yamen and was still in his official uniform. The people outside had indeed been restrained by him and his men. Sun Congwan, guarded by a group of maids and servants, stared at Luo Shenyuan's back, tears welling in her eyes. Yi Ning felt a pang of pain in her heart, an indescribable annoyance.
