“If there isn’t a third corpse, then it might be the possibility that Ziqing mentioned,” Gong Chengjue said.
Only this possibility can reveal the ruthlessness of the person behind the scenes.
This is similar to the principle behind Su Ziqing's car accident: ruthless and indifferent to the consequences.
This method is exactly like what Gong Changming is doing now.
"So, your target is you, and everyone else is just bait? But have you ever wondered how they figured that out?" Lu Linghong stared at Gong Chengjue. "Don't forget, it was me who called you!!"
Gong Chengjue remained silent.
Lu Linghong continued, "How did you know I would definitely call you? You were so confident about the timing?"
Seeing that Gong Chengjue's face was frighteningly ugly, Luo Jinhan guessed that he had thought of something deeper.
He didn't say anything for fear of scaring Su Ziqing.
However, after being by Gong Chengjue's side for so long, Luo Jinhan also thought about it more deeply after Lu Linghong said those words.
Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.
Miss Su's undeserved misfortune is truly...
Su Ziqing also thought about it more deeply. Lu Linghong didn't know much about the Gong family, but Su Ziqing knew much more about them than he did.
Following Lu Linghong's words, she then casually expressed her deeper speculation, "Perhaps for the other party, Chengjue knew the news and rushed over, so he had this option, but he also had a second option."
She glanced at Lu Linghong, thought that he shouldn't be so timid as to be frightened, and then looked at Gong Chengjue.
His face was terribly gloomy; he must have guessed it.
“If Chengjue hadn’t come, if I hadn’t escaped, the result would have been that I… burned to death on the mountain. Chengjue would have been angry and sad, and when people are angry and sad, they will have weaknesses.” She shrugged. “Am I right, Assistant Luo?”
Luo Jinhan nodded reluctantly, "Yes."
That's it.
The person behind the kidnapping didn't care whether Su Ziqing lived or died.
If he lives, Gong Chengjue will appear, which is exactly what I want.
If he dies, Gong Chengjue will be sad, but he can also experience a twisted sense of revenge and find a breakthrough.
"That's too ruthless, those methods." Seeing that neither Gong Chengjue nor Assistant Luo refuted Su Ziqing's guess, Lu Linghong gasped, "Gong Chengjue, you still say you're not a troublemaker."
"Senior brother..." Su Ziqing was speechless.
Lu Linghong glared at her, "Can't I even say a few words to him at a time like this?"
Su Ziqing shook her head, "Maybe it's not what we guessed? Like you said, maybe it was someone from the Su family who attacked me?"
“But…” Lu Linghong wanted to say something, but Su Ziqing comforted him, “Everything we’re talking about now is just speculation.”
However, as someone who almost died in the devastating wildfire, shouldn't she show signs of fear?
To be honest, Su Ziqing was only scared when the incident happened, and then she encountered Gong Chengjue's matter. Now, a day and a night have passed, and her fears have almost completely dissipated.
Now, all she wants to know is who is so hostile towards her.
Lu Linghong opened his mouth and then closed it again.
But something suddenly flashed through his mind, yet he couldn't quite grasp it.
Wait, it seems like I've forgotten something.
"Senior brother?" Seeing him in a daze, Su Ziqing waved her hand. "I was just kidding you, don't be scared."
Lu Linghong grabbed her waving hand.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! I'm injured!" Su Ziqing cried pitifully.
Lu Linghong snapped out of his daze, his expression extremely serious, and looked into Su Ziqing's eyes as he asked, "We just met with Chenxi before this happened!"
Su Ziqing asked, puzzled, "What?"
He looked at Gong Chengjue, then at Su Ziqing, before continuing, "Although our whereabouts won't be as secret as your senior brother's or someone else's, do you think it's easy for someone to find out our whereabouts quickly?"
ah……
Is there yet another suspect?
"You mean...Dawn?" Su Ziqing felt that this guess was a bit too malicious.
To make malicious assumptions about others.
She immediately questioned, "That can't be, Chenxi, she's a foreigner, and besides, we met..."
“She chose the place where we met.” Lu Linghong looked at her, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. “Think about it, how could a foreigner like her know so much about which restaurants are on which streets?”
"Well... with the internet so readily available these days, she could easily find out by searching, right?" The restaurant they went to wasn't some secret place that ordinary people couldn't go to.
Su Ziqing felt that Lu Linghong was somewhat obsessed, seeing threats everywhere. He suspected everyone.
Even Chenxi began to have doubts.
Of course, we can't just dismiss it so quickly, but she thinks people should be more rational.
She looked at Lu Linghong, "The person who found Chengjue last time was someone she introduced. The meaning of the meeting that day should be that it was one of her own people."
Then she looked at Gong Chengjue, "She's the one who told me about the kill order. Looks like she's quite influential."
She paused for a moment, then continued to Lu Linghong, "She's a foreigner, and she knows people with foreign identities, so why is she only looking for locals in City A? Isn't that just complicating things?"
For example, something that could be said in one sentence is instead said in a roundabout way, taking ten sentences and having several people relay the message.
Lu Linghong, however, felt extremely calm and rational. "No matter what, we must include her as a suspect, especially since she's looking for Senior Brother Feng at this time..."
Lu Linghong didn't want to mention Feng Xixuan in front of Gong Chengjue, but when he thought that Gong Chengjue knew Feng Xixuan's whereabouts better than he did, it seemed that it didn't matter whether he mentioned it to her or not.
"Don't you think it's all too coincidental?" Just when he was looking for someone and Senior Brother Feng asked him to send some people over, this dawn appeared.
Su Ziqing reminded him, "We approached her on our own initiative." Isn't calling it a coincidence a bit far-fetched?
Gong Chengjue's expression remained serious. Upon hearing Lu Linghong's words, he coughed lightly, "Ziqing, there's something I haven't had a chance to tell you yet."
Su Ziqing looked at him and felt that Gong Chengjue's expression and tone suggested that what he was about to say was not a good thing.
Could it be news of Senior Brother Feng?
She had previously asked him if he could contact Feng Xixuan, and he said he could...
Under her gaze, Gong Chengjue felt immense pressure, but he still had to tell her the truth: "I haven't been able to contact Feng Xixuan."
When Su Ziqing heard this bad news, it was as if the string in her mind suddenly snapped.
She looked at Gong Chengjue in disbelief. "What?!" He had confidently told her on the phone that day that he could contact Feng Xixuan!
Now……
