was also loyal waiting slowly radiating warmth.With a screech, the wheels grinding against the pavement, several students dressed in costumes jumped off the bus. Among them were Lin Meng, Lin Zi, and...Over the years, there has been sporadic contact between their family and the Jiang family. Although her father passed away, her mother still maintained a relationship with Aunt Jiang. The Jiang family's fortune has always been good. Over the years, Uncle Jiang has steadily risen in rank, so maintaining ties with them is crucial for their own success. These days, it's all about connections. You might have money, lots of money, but if you lack connections, there are things even money can't solve. It's easy to lose touch, but reconnecting can be difficult. So, she and her mother have been carefully maintaining the relationship with the Jiang family, not being too eager as to appear bothersome, yet not being too distant either.
So, this connection comes in handy now!
She thought about it carefully, and with great difficulty, she began to wait for dawn. There were still several hours until dawn, and she should have taken a nap, but she couldn't sleep because her heart was filled with anger. She wouldn't be able to think about anything else until Xiao Yi was dealt with.
Finally, she checked her watch and saw the minute hand painfully cross past 7 o'clock, then two more minutes passed. This meant she could call. All this time, she only called Jiang Yichen's home. At this time, Jiang Yichen should be up, perhaps having breakfast. She dialed him, the timing was just right.
To prevent the conversation from being overheard by outsiders, Li Lanqiu specially sent away the several subordinates responsible for guarding, and then moved away from the door. She used her mobile phone program to make a call.
She should be in the United States now, so if there's a call from Jiang's house, the caller ID should display a number from the US. She has to make sure of that. At the same time, a voice-changing program is also important. She needs to completely disguise herself, so that later on, during her interactions with Jiang Yancheng, he won't be able to figure out who she really is through her subtle cues.
The phone call connected, and she immediately introduced herself. After exchanging pleasantries with Jiang's mother, she requested to speak with Jiang Yichen about something.
Then Jiang Mu called Jiang Yancheng over, and Jiang Yancheng answered the phone.
"Uncle Jiang, I have a very important discovery!"
When dealing with someone like Jiang Yancheng, who has worked in the police system for a long time, don't play any mind games. Just be straightforward and say what you have to say. Otherwise, the more lies you tell, the easier it is to expose yourself.
Jiang Yancheng just let out a faint "um." For Wu Yong's daughter, ever since his father committed a crime, his feelings for her had always been lukewarm.
Li Lanqiu was used to being brief. Because of the scar on her face, although she spoke little, her words were slow and somewhat ambiguous.
"Uncle, I discovered that... the leader of the Silver Wolf Group, Xiao Yi, is still alive, and... he has returned to the country. He is currently... active in City B!"
Jiang Yichen immediately frowned. He found it rather interesting that Wu Shengnan brought up this person at this time. After all, Xiao Yi had been in City B for quite some time now, and she seemed to be mentioning him rather late. Furthermore, the tone of her voice was off.
"What's wrong with you!"
It feels like someone hit me, making it hard to speak.
Li Lanqiu's heart immediately flashed with anger, directed at Lin Meng and Xiao Yi.
But she couldn't speak the truth.
"There's... something growing in my mouth... so that's why I speak... like this." She concealed it.
"Oh." Jiang Yichen replied, indicating he understood, then asked.
"How did you know about Xiao Yi Did you see him He's back in the country!"
Isn't she in America!
Moreover, her father committed such a crime, does she dare to return to the country!
Li Lanqiu hurriedly said.
"No, I'm still... in America. These are... from a friend of mine... saw them."
These were all things she had planned out early on, so she answered without hesitation. Of course, her speaking speed was still slow.
Friend!
Jiang Yichen felt something was amiss. Logically, since Xiao Yi had disappeared for so long, who else would pay special attention to him besides those who had interacted with him back then He didn't even know what kind of friend she was. Why did she call him early in the morning Was she simply trying to curry favor with him, offering information about Xiao Yi; or, had she already learned that her father was killed by Xiao Yi, and therefore thought of using him
I have to say, Jiang Yichen's mind works very fast.
He asked, "You called to... "
“I think... I should tell you, Xiao Yi... killed... Little Lang. Such a... murderer absolutely... can't let him... go unpunished. Uncle Jiang, Little Lang... was so good, we... must make Xiao Yi pay for his life. And I think... back when Uncle... you... wiped out the Silver Wolf Gang, Xiao Yi's death... was in the newspaper, but he is now... back again. That definitely means that your initial crackdown on crime... had a flaw. I think, Uncle, you should... continue to clean this up! That way, no one will say anything... nasty about it. Uncle, what do you think”
Wu Shengnan finally asked one last question.
Jiang Yichen's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking to himself that this girl was indeed shrewd and spoke eloquently, hitting every key point. It seemed like this girl had actually helped him and was looking out for him everywhere, truly caring about her own son. He seemed to owe her a favor, as she said, by catching Xiao Yi and letting him face legal consequences.
But, this girl didn't understand. That man was Xiao Yi, yet he wasn't Xiao Yi. He now used the alias Lin Yi, held an Italian passport, and all of his personal information was forged to perfection. There was absolutely no connection between him and the former Silver Wolf Gang leader, Xiao Yi. He knew he was Xiao Yi, but what good did that do!
When Xiao Yi was first discovered, he quickly investigated the man. He didn't care what the man did in Italy. But what he did domestically was all legal and legitimate. What reason did he have to arrest this man! And now, the man's power was still immense. He could establish a foothold in that black mob-ridden place in Italy and even become a regional leader. This showed that the man was extraordinary.
When Xiao Yi returned, he felt a twinge of fear, suspecting this man might come for revenge. However, the man never bothered him, acting very courteously. This confirmed some thoughts he'd had. When he'd taken down the syndicate and disrupted their operations, it wasn't necessarily due to his own abilities; perhaps this man had helped him along the way. He sensed that those connected to the Silver Wolf Gang, especially the minor players, seemed to have received favorable arrangements afterward. A mysterious force was quietly at work. He wanted to investigate further, but due to a promotion and a busy new position, he couldn't focus on it. Secondly, those underlings were doing legitimate things, living ordinary lives as common citizens. He gradually let go of the matter.
Xiao Yi, if he was willing to let go of the past, he definitely wouldn't provoke him. After all, now he is a person named Lin Yi. He cleaned up the situation back then, and that's where it ended. So, he wasn't afraid of any gossip at all!
As for saying that Xiao Yi should atone for his youngest son's death, that statement is meaningless. Outsiders don't know how the youngest son died, and they attribute everything to the Silver Wolf Gang, but he knows very well what the true inside story is. This matter can only be said to have a weak connection to Xiao Yi because he was leading the Silver Wolf Gang at the time!
But he didn't want to give his enemies more fuel, there was no need for that!
Given Xiao Yi's current power, he still has to be wary of whether he has any connections with terrorist organizations. He needs to consider the safety of his family!
So, Xiao Yi, he's not someone you want to mess with!
Just pretend that you've never met, as if you didn't even know this person existed!
So, his response to Wu Shengnan was lukewarm.
"I understand."
"Then, Uncle... what will you do" She sounded very anxious.
This kind of urgency is a little out of the ordinary. Jiang Yichen didn't think that girl was someone who valued old feelings. His own youngest son wasn't worth Wu Shengnan caring about this much, let alone him, her so-called uncle. She didn't need to care about him this way.
Then, she was so eager, just wanting to use his hand to get rid of Xiao Yi, wasn't she So that means she should know something about her father's death all those years ago.
But, he Jiang Yancheng is not a fool, would foolishly be used by others. This little girl playing such schemes in front of him, really isn't good enough!
He hates being taken advantage of!
Jiang Yichen's face turned cold.
"I will investigate this."
Her evasive words didn't escape Wu Shengnan's notice.
Her tone was still urgent. "Uncle, I swear to you... everything I said... is true."
She immediately told him Xiao Yi's current address and indicated that Xiao Yi was very close to Lin Meng now. The person who indirectly killed Xiaolang, Jiang Yancheng, should hate this, right By tying Lin Meng and Xiao Yi together, Wu Shengnan wanted Jiang Yancheng to make a move sooner and get rid of Xiao Yi.
"I got it," Jiang Yichen said, his voice still as calm as ever.
"Huh" Wu Shengnan couldn't quite adapt to Jiang Yichen's calmness. In her imagination, Jiang Yichen should have been excited, angry, and even wanted to devour Xiao Yi alive. Because she knew Xiao Lang's position in Jiang Yichen's heart. The way Jiang family men protected their own was notorious.
Jiang Yichen didn't care, he just continued in a calm voice.
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. I have to go to work soon!"
"Uncle, you aren't planning to...take revenge on Xiao Yi, are you" Li Lanqiu was getting anxious.
You don't have to worry about this.
But---
"I know what I'm doing, so that's all I have to say for now."
That's obviously a way of saying "hang up the phone"!
Even if Wu Shengnan was deliberately obstinate, she couldn't keep pestering him any longer. She could only hum in response and then heard the sound of the phone being hung up.
She suddenly deflated, what was going on This wasn't right! Why was everything different from what she had imagined. She felt the same suffocating feeling again, just like this morning yesterday, when she excitedly went to confront Lin Meng, only to end up with nothing but a wasted trip. As for Jiang Yancheng, she had been so excited that she waited until this time and made this call, but the response she received was another hollow disappointment.
These two punches, however, missed their mark completely. This left her feeling incredibly agitated. She couldn't help but fidget with her hair. In a foul mood, she truly wished she had a gun to eliminate Xiao Yi and Lin Meng. And what about that damn Jiang Yancheng What kind of attitude was that She had waited for hours, calling him repeatedly, only to be met with his cold indifference. Not only did he fail to show any gratitude for the information she provided, but he even brushed her off. He acted like such a high and mighty official, looking down on everyone else!
What a pain!
Li Lanqiu once again fell into a fit of hysterical anger. A sleepless night had left her mentally drained, feeling like her brain was about to explode. Now, without getting what she wanted, she became even more frantic, acting like a madman, jumping around the house, gnashing her teeth, never finding a moment of peace!
She was unaware that her crazed outburst was being completely captured by the infrared surveillance camera from afar. It was then transmitted to Jiang Yancheng's computer like a fresh, piping hot treat.
Jiang Yichen has had people keeping an eye on Li Lanqiu these days, hoping to glean some clues from her interactions with Rong Ling and solve his confusion. After finishing breakfast, as usual, he went into his study to receive reports from his subordinates. He had indeed sent people to watch Rong Ling, but they dared not get too close. Rong Ling's villa was well-equipped, and the people inside were highly alert. Getting too close would lead to trouble if they were discovered. The people he sent out before had been found and barely escaped after a great deal of effort. So now, his men could only watch from afar, but that yielded little to no results.
This morning, besides Wu Shengnan's sudden phone call, there wasn't much different from usual. Jiang Yichen usually read through the reports from his subordinates before going to sleep at night, so he didn't expect anything special about the reports that came in after just one night. Rong Ling had a regular schedule, and Li Lanqiu was also very regular, rarely causing trouble in the evenings. There wasn't anything worth paying attention to. Therefore, he thought this morning's reports would still be dull and unexciting, with no fresh information.
But then, the surprise came.
Last night, something happened at the small villa where Li Lanqiu lived. It seemed like someone had broken in, and then, people suddenly appeared all around the villa. Those people were imposing and likely there to be responsible for the villa's security. As for the person who broke in, it was very likely Xiao Yi.
That's pretty interesting!
Jiang Yichen smiled. He was delighted to see Xiao Yi and Rong Lingqian get up, as this meant that without any effort, he had gained an extra helper.
The report also says, Li Lanqiu was injured, her neck was hurt, but it's not serious.
It's a pity, she should be hurt more.
Jian Yancheng sighed inwardly.
Continuing to look down, Chiang Yen-cheng immediately froze. A pair of eyes, after suddenly widening, narrowed abruptly.nswer."Rong Ling cursed softly from her head. 'You say you're not angry! If you weren't angry, would you have kept this a secret for so long! You're angry with me, aren't you' "Lin Meng's face flushed...
