Chapter 394: Another Suspicion
"Yun"er, do you really think that we can only be enemies? I admit that it"s indeed my fault for falling out with your father back then, but I"m not that ruthless to kill your father." Feng Qing had a sincere expression.
Feng Yun glanced at them and then ignored them.
He wanted Liu Guang to answer.
"It has nothing to do with the Feng Family," Liu Guang said.
However, Feng Yun smiled. "If you said that from the beginning, I might still believe you. Now, how trustworthy do you think you are?"
"However, there"s no need to ask now. I"ve already guessed who it is. Since you didn"t say it and probably want to protect that person, we"ll rely on our own ability."
It had nothing to do with Feng Qing and Feng Hua. Looking at Liu Guang, it was obvious that what happened back then was related to the Feng Family. It wasn"t Feng Qing and Feng Hua, nor could it be Lu Ping and Lu Yuan. Of course, it couldn"t be Feng Xiangxiang, Feng Qin, and Feng Xu either. After the elimination, there was only Feng Lun left in the Feng Family.
Feng Lun was only 16 years old back then.
16 years old was neither too young nor too old.
From the outside world, 16 years old was still a child, but on Ghost Slaughter Island, 16 years old was not young anymore.
Yan Jinyu was only 10 years old when she became famous.
Hence, it was possible that the 16-year-old Feng Lun would kill Feng Li.
They were all smart people. Liu Guang naturally knew that he had guessed it when he said that.
He had expected him to guess it from the beginning, so he did not deny it directly.
After Ghost Slaughter Island was destroyed, his strength had been greatly reduced. The Feng Family was considered a huge help and was still useful.
Rather than letting Feng Yun destroy the entire Feng Family, it was better to let him know who it was.
He had to let Feng Yun know, but he couldn"t let Feng Lun feel disappointed.
Anyway, Feng Yun couldn"t kill Feng Lun.
"So now, you"re considered my man?"
"Your man?" Feng Yun sneered. "At most, it"s a temporarily cooperative relations.h.i.+p that was coerced."
Liu Guang didn"t mind. "Whatever you say. As long as Feng Li"s son works for me."
At that moment, the door was pushed open.
The lights in the house were switched on, and the door was suddenly pushed open. The light"s impact did not affect them much.
However, the person who appeared at the door was a surprise.
As soon as the door was pushed open, half of the guns that were pointing at Feng Yun, turned to aim at the person.
They were both in wheelchairs, but the person"s expression did not change at all when he saw so many guns pointed at him. He even seriously scanned the people in the room and said in surprise, "This place is really lively. Where are so many people?"
It was the seriously injured head of the Jones Family, Lind Jones.
The makeup on his face had been completely removed. He looked different from the thirty-year-old teacher at Boyu High School. He looked to be in his twenties.
He actually didn"t hurt his legs, but his injuries were very serious. He had been lying on the bed these few days and couldn"t get out, so he was sitting in the wheelchair now.
Lind Jones"s true colors were very aggressive, even if he still looked a little weak.
His gaze was also very strange.
The person pus.h.i.+ng Lind Jones"s wheelchair was a man. He was wearing a mask and was quite skilled. He was the only subordinate Ling Jones brought to the Feng Family. It was said that he was his right-hand man when he was in the Jones Family.
Liu Guang saw him and raised his hand. Only then did the people who were pointing at Lind Jones retract their guns.
"Why are you here?" Liu Guang asked with a frown.
Lind Jones tapped the armrest of the wheelchair and the person behind him pushed him into the house.
"Look at what Mr. Liu is saying. It"s lively here. Of course, I have to come and take a look. We"re in a cooperative relations.h.i.+p. Have you forgotten, Mr. Liu?"
"Besides, with so many people in the Feng Family and they"re all Mr. Liu"s enemies, as your partner, my safety will probably be threatened. Shouldn"t I be concerned?"
Seeing Liu Yu glare at him angrily, Lind Jones smiled. "Oh, I almost forgot. There are also my enemies among Mr. Liu"s enemies."
"After scheming for three years in North City, not only did I fail to kill the enemy, but I was also forced into a corner by the enemy. If not for Mr. Liu"s help, I"m afraid my life would have been gone long ago. Even if I was lucky enough to survive, I"ll probably be in the other party"s hands now. Perhaps, I"ll be tortured to death."
"From this point of view, Mr. Liu is a very good partner."
Feng Yun then sized Lind Jones up carefully.
He had heard of Lind Jones and knew what had happened in North City some time ago.
She had always thought that Lind Jones was Liu Guang"s man. Now, it seemed like that wasn"t the case.
Besides, why did he feel that Lind Jones seemed to be a little different from the person he had found out? A person who dared to cooperate with Liu Guang as an equal didn"t seem like someone who would lose completely after planning for three years. He even almost lost his life and had no choice but to flee.
Even if the person he schemed against was Yu"er, who had a lot of uncertainties.
Yes, there was a lot of uncertainty about her.
In the past, when he saw a little girl on Ghost Slaughter Island and felt that she only had a little ability, she could be very strong. When he felt that she was already strong enough, she could be even stronger.
However, even so, Lind Jones had planned for three years.
Had he been focusing on teaching for three years?
It was said that in order to not let him use the Yan Family as a bargaining chip, Yu"er even openly fell out with her twin sister. However, if Lind Jones really had the intention, he should first control Yan Jinyun even when they fell out.
What they saw might not be true.
They had a bad relations.h.i.+p just because they fell out?
It was impossible for Lind Jones not to understand such a simple logic.
Then, why didn"t he have any intention of capturing Yan Jinyun?
Oh, he heard that he did have the intentions. It was just that he was too late. Not only did he meet the people sent by Jin to protect Yan Jinyun in the dark, but he also met Huo Siyu.
Before he saw Lind Jones, he thought that Lind Jones had been completely deceived by Yu"er. Now that he saw him in person…
He did not think that such a person was so easy to deceive.
Moreover, even if he was really deceived, a ruthless person should not have let go of any possibility of defeating his enemy.
He treated Yan Jinyun as an unimportant person and couldn"t bear to hurt her after knowing that Yan Jinyun and Yu"er didn"t have a good relations.h.i.+p,?
Lind Jones wasn"t that kind.
He had even self-deprecated that not only did his three years of planning fail, but he even fled with serious injuries.
This did not look like the mentality of someone who had really failed to take revenge after scheming for three years.
"Jones, who allowed you to speak to my father in such a tone? Have you forgotten who helped you kill your old enemy, Bruce? Have you forgotten that without my father"s help, can your Jones Family surpa.s.s the Bruce Family? Have you forgotten who saved you from serious injuries in North City?"
"Jones, you have to be grateful! And not being so rude to your benefactor!"
Lind Jones glanced over with a slightly strange gaze. It was Liu Yu. If it were anyone else, they might not be able to remain calm under his gaze.
Lind Jones"s smile was also indescribably strange.
"It"s true that Mr. Liu helped me kill Bruce. It"s also because of Mr. Liu that I could retreat from North City unscathed. However, isn"t this the condition that we agreed on when we were negotiating a cooperation previously? Back then, Mr. Liu was seriously injured when he came to the Jones Family."
"The Jones Family provided Mr. Liu with a place to hide. We even got the best medical team to treat Mr. Liu. After that, we even let Mr. Liu hide in the Jones Family. The Jones Family provided funds for Mr. Liu to rebuild his power. What Mr. Liu needs to do is help me get rid of Old Bruce and protect my safety when I move around in your country."
"We both take what we need. I have an equal relations.h.i.+p with Mr. Liu. Why can"t I speak to Mr. Liu in such a tone when it comes to you?"
"Benefactor? Who"s the benefactor? We"re just taking what we need."
His eyes turned cold. "Also, you"re wrong about one thing. It"s not because of Mr. Liu that the Jones Family can surpa.s.s the Bruce Family. It"s because of the results of eight years of planning for the entire family under my leaders.h.i.+p!"
"Killing Old Bruce was just to advance my plan. Even if I didn"t kill him, it would only be a while before the Jones Family can surpa.s.s the Bruce Family and take back the number one family"s glory."
"What Mr. Liu did could at most be considered as bringing forward my plan. It can"t replace the results of my Jones Family"s hidden plans for eight years!"
"Little Mr. Liu Yu has to remember this!"
Little Mr. Liu Yu?
One of the things that Liu Yu had always been at odds with Lind Jones was the way Lind Jones addressed him. He felt that Lind Jones had belittled him.
Not only was he belittled, Lind Jones"s tone also made him feel a sense of mockery.
How dare a person who was a few years younger than him behaved so arrogant in front of him?
"Alright, Yu!" Liu Yu was unhappy, and Liu Guang was not necessarily happy that Ling Jones treated him with such an att.i.tude.
However, Lind Jones was telling the truth. He really couldn"t refute him.
Looking at Lind Jones, Liu Guang said, "There"s one more thing you forgot to mention. I was the one who told you that the enemy who killed your father was the missing eldest daughter of the Yan Family in North City."
Lind Jones looked enlightened. "Yes, and that too."
His expression suddenly changed, and his gaze was sharp and strange. "But isn"t this one of the three conditions I agreed to save Mr. Liu and give him temporary protection and subsequent financial support?"
"I didn"t take advantage of Mr. Liu."
Liu Guang"s expression darkened. "That"s true. I wonder if Jones still remembers why you agreed to save us back then?"
"What else could it be? The two people beside you now forced me with guns on my head." The two people were referring to Hei Yao and Liu Yu.
At this point, Lind Jones" gaze became even stranger.
"You even said that if I didn"t agree, you would kill me and take over the Jones Family. I… haven"t forgotten about that either."
"So, Jones, are you holding a grudge?" Liu Guang narrowed his eyes. He looked like he would immediately get someone to kill Lind Jones if he said yes.
The masked man standing behind Ling Jones sensed the other party"s killing intent and was about to stand in front of him when Lind Jones raised his hand and stopped him.
He leaned lazily on the back of the wheelchair and said with a smile, "Mr. Liu, what are you saying? We"re partners now. I"ve long forgotten about the past."
"It had better be. Otherwise, you"ll probably be in big trouble, Jones."
