Chapter 652: It’s Really Sincere of the He Family To Be Sending Me an Invitation to Tea In the Ladies’
The incident today obviously happened because the He Family members wanted Zi Yi to have an allergic reaction, so that they could bring her away.
However, a man in black appeared in the middle of the confrontation, and at the initial glance, he seemed to be helping Zi Yi.
However, his real motive was to let Zi Yi become the murderer of the man from the He Family.
Lu Jingye said to her, “It’s an organization. Yunxiao knows of them and he will deal with them.”
“Are the people who paid for this organization the people we are looking into?”
“Yes.”
“Hmph.”
Zi Yi took out her phone and quickly did a check. Soon, she found the organization that Lu Jingye had mentioned.
“So it turns out to be an organization from the Golden Triangle.”
“That’s right.”
Zi Yi continued checking, while Lu Jingye drove the car in silence.
However, not long after he started driving, Lu Jingye received a phone call.
He directly turned on the car’s Bluetooth speaker.
The other party spoke in an unkind manner. “Lu Jingye.”
Zi Yi found this voice a little familiar and she tilted her head to look at him.
Lu Jingye had a calm expression as he said, “You are looking for me?”
The other party seemed to be suppressing his anger and ended up failing to do so, as he growled at Lu Jingye. “Was my son killed by your people or that woman of yours.”
Lu Jingye released a chilly aura and his tone of voice turned cold. “Is Eldest Master He acknowledging the fact that your family was intending to take Yiyi away?”
The other party was stunned for two seconds before he gnashed his teeth and said, “We were only intending to invite Miss Zi over for a cup of tea.”
Zi Yi laughed at his words and there was undisguised mocking in her smile. “It’s really sincere of the He Family to be sending me an invitation to tea in the ladies’ bathroom.”
Sounds of angry, heavy breathing could be heard from the other end.
Zi Yi continued mocking him. “Isn’t the He Family relying on the fact that Ah Jing is no longer the Lu Group’s president and that the Lu Group has fallen, and that’s why you dare to be so fearless? Why? What’s wrong? Now that you end up worser off after trying to gain an advantage, are you planning to pin the a.s.sa.s.sination of your son on us?
“However, I have to remind you that there are surveillance cameras all around the seafood restaurant. Moreover, there were many people who saw that I headed to the other washroom. Your son’s a.s.sa.s.sination doesn’t seem to be related to me at all, right?”
Zi Yi’s tone of voice contained traces of gloating and it angered Eldest Master He to the extent that he was gasping in anger,
He said in a deep voice, “You people better not be complacent. My son is dead and I will never let you off.”
He slammed the phone down and he subsequently hung up the phone after he said that.
Zi Yi looked towards the front of the car and said with a cold voice, “It seems like the objective of the man behind the scenes has been achieved.”
The man behind the scenes had clearly hinted something to the Eldest Master He. Otherwise, he would not have determined that they were the culprits of his son’s death.
“Say, could it be possible that Eldest Master He has also been affected by a parasite… or that he got replaced by a clone?”
Lu Jingye fell into deep thought for some time before he said, “You can send your invisible robots to take a look.”
Zi Yi nodded her head.
On the other side.
When the He Family received news of He Chao’s death, the whole family was engulfed in a grieving and indignant atmosphere.
Everyone was gathered in the living room. The First Madam and First Young Madam were all crying their hearts out at the same time.
The expressions of others in the living room were also ugly.
“Lu Jingye must have been the culprit. Who else except for him dares to be so arrogant?!”
Eldest Master He’s eyes were red and his chest heaved up and down. “Lu Jingye, I will definitely pay you back the pain I’ve felt of you killing my son a hundredfold!”
Second Master He furrowed his brow and said, “Brother, calm down a little.”
“How can I possibly calm down! My son was such a good person and he merely went to invite Zi Yi over to have tea and yet, he dared to murder my son!”
The frown on Second Master He’s face tightened.
He felt that his brother was acting somewhat strangely. Such a mindless and impulsive thing was not something he could have done.
“Not to mention Little Chao had broken into the female washroom in an attempt to bring Zi Yi away, even if you said that you wanted to invite her over for tea, that was not the right way.”
Eldest Master He’s body shook and he touched his face in the next second.
Sometime later, he said, “I was the one who kept calling him and urging him to bring her over, or else it would be too late.”
“What would be too late?”
Second Master He suddenly stood up and asked, “Brother, are you hiding something from us?”
Eldest Master He did not reveal anything and merely said, “My son was murdered by Lu Jingye and our He Family will definitely fight to the death against him.”
Second Master He knew that his brother definitely had something he was hiding from them. He felt vexed deep down, but he did not question him right away.
Instead, he turned to speak to his wife. “Help sister-in-law back to her room to take a rest. We will settle the following matters.”
The Second Madam nodded her head. She stood up and got He Chao’s wife to help her bring the First Madam to her room and the three of them left together.
Second Master He looked at the Eldest Master He’s expression and said, “Brother, the higher-ups are protecting Lu Jingye and we cannot touch him openly.”
At the thought of how He Chao openly brought men to bring her over, he felt an impending headache. In particular, now that people was dead.
“What we should be checking right now is who had sent that man in black.”
“Isn’t that very obvious already?” Eldest Master He said affirmatively, “It must be Lu Jingye’s men. Or otherwise it would be Lu Yunxiao’s men.”
Eldest Master He had already made up his mind that Lu Jingye was the culprit and he was determined to have Lu Jingye return a life with a life. He directly called for the leader of the He Family’s secret guards. “Attack their residence and company. I don’t believe that he is a superhuman that can escape everything!”
Eldest Master He was insistent on being enemies with Lu Jingye.
Second Master He furrowed his eyebrows and gave the leader of the secret guards a gaze, telling him not to be in a rush to move. He told the other younger generation members to leave and when only the both of them remained, he said, “Brother, if we really intend to have a falling out with Lu Jingye, it’s equivalent to having a falling out with the Lu Family. We have to inform Father of this and let Third Brother know of it.”
“No need!” Eldest Master He interrupted him. “The Lu Family is now at the end of their lifespan and they are not strong enough for us to fear them.
“Brother, why do you have such thoughts? It’s only the Lu Group that is weakened and Patriarch Lu is still alive and kicking. We can’t touch them.”
“He will not be alive soon.”
Second Master He looked at his brother in shock. A long time later, he raised his voice and asked, “Brother, what do you mean by that?”
Second Master He continued asking, “Brother! What exactly are you hiding from us?!”
There was a murderous look in Eldest Master He’s eyes and he suddenly revealed an unknown smile. “You’ll know very soon.”
…
Zi Yi put away her phone and said to Lu Jingye, “Eldest Master He is under someone’s control.”
Lu Jingye nodded his head. He had also discerned that. He took out his phone to give Lu Yunxiao a call. After giving him some instructions, he called Lu Jianlin.
He then informed Lu Jianlin about what Eldest Master He had said.
After that, he made a guess. “There should still be people lurking in the main residence or people who are under someone else’s control.”
Lu Jianlin said, “I will make arrangements.”
Having said that, the father and son hung up the phone.
Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye and asked, “What are we going to do next?”
“We’ll first confirm who the people are that are hidden behind the scenes.”
In fact, he already had his suspicions long ago, but he had yet to get any conclusive evidence yet.
“If we confirm it, this will involve political interests and we won’t have to take care of it anymore.”
Zi Yi nodded her head.
