Chapter 706: Chapter 0706: Death, I Won’t Ask Either
After witnessing the horrific state of Lin Qingyun inside the prison, Wu Mei finally understood why Ye Xunhuan had said not to hand over Lin Qingyun’s body to Lin’s family.
At that moment, there was nothing human left in Lin Qingyun’s appearance; he was a completely mangled mess of flesh and blood, and even his bones had been entirely crushed by Xiao Jiu, making him resemble a lump of mud!
It was truly terrifying, exactly like the methods of psychopathic criminals seen in movies and TV shows.
If Lin’s family were to see Lin Qingyun in such a condition, they definitely would not let the matter rest.
Lin Qingyun deserved to die, and Lin’s family had acknowledged it without much fuss; but to execute him in such a manner, how could they possibly remain unresponsive!
Wu Mei did not let anyone remove Lin Qingyun’s body. Instead, she doused it with gasoline and burned it to ash within the prison.
Even if Wu Mei didn’t explain, they wouldn’t speak out of turn, but who in the hell would believe it if it were spoken of?
People might just think you’ve escaped from a mental institution.
After completing these tasks, Wu Mei left the place.
The phone was connected in an instant.
Before Wu Mei could speak, Weng Jianbo’s voice instantly came through the handset, sounding urgent, "How did it go?"
"Director, your information was correct, someone from Lin’s family indeed showed up!" Wu Mei did not beat around the bush and stated succinctly, "They even had an encounter with Ye Xunhuan!"
"Which member of Lin’s family was it?"
"I don’t know them, I’ve never seen them before!"
As she spoke, Wu Mei seemed to recall something else and added, "One of them was a middle-aged man wearing a cyan robe, with a slicked-back haircut..."
"Does he have a tattoo on the back of his hand?" Weng Jianbo immediately interrupted Wu Mei, sounding very anxious.
"I didn’t notice that, but I have footage from the surveillance at the time. I’ll send it to your email to check!"
"Good, send it to me then!" Weng Jianbo also was straightforward, "Wu Mei, you didn’t have any conflict with them, did you?"
"Not really, but..."
"But what?" A bad premonition immediately rose in Weng Jianbo’s heart!
"I was outmaneuvered by Ye Xunhuan; they might think we are associated with him..."
"First, send me the video. I’ll look at it, and then we’ll plan accordingly!" Weng Jianbo said, exhaling heavily, "During this time, whatever happens with Ye Xunhuan, stay far away from him, do not get involved!"
"Why?"
"If I’m not wrong, it must be that person!" Weng Jianbo’s tone became gravely serious, "If it’s that person returning, then it’s not something we can get involved in. We’ll have to leave it to Hidden Dragon to handle!"
"Moreover, Lin’s family member was killed, pinned by rules; given Lin’s vengeful nature, they definitely won’t let it go!"
Upon hearing these solemn words from Weng Jianbo, Wu Mei pondered briefly then slowly replied, "Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Wu Mei fell into deep thought. Who could Weng Jianbo be referring to? 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Who has returned?
She couldn’t figure it out, but from Weng Jianbo’s tone, Wu Mei could tell that this person was definitely not to be trifled with, undoubtedly significant, and also extremely formidable; otherwise, Weng Jianbo wouldn’t have said only people from Hidden Dragon could handle it!
All this was unknown to Ye Xunhuan, who, after sending Xiao Jiu back to his residence, went to Huangtu Group.
He was still on the clock and had to report for duty!
When Ye Xunhuan arrived at Huangtu Group, it was precisely lunchtime, so he didn’t go to his office but directly headed to the cafeteria.
Upon entering the cafeteria, Ye Xunhuan immediately saw Qiu Ruoxi sitting alone at a table.
Although Qiu Ruoxi dined with all the employees and ate the same food as them, appearing very approachable,
nobody actually dared to sit with her.
The pressure to sit and eat with Qiu Ruoxi was simply too great.
After getting his meal, Ye Xunhuan walked towards Qiu Ruoxi.
The other diners in the cafeteria showed a curious expression on their faces upon witnessing this scene.
Ye Xunhuan, ignoring everyone’s gazes, proceeded to sit down.
Qiu Ruoxi glanced at Ye Xunhuan then returned to eating her meal with grace and lady-like decorum.
"Old..."
Just as Ye Xunhuan uttered the word "Old," Qiu Ruoxi abruptly looked up, her icy gaze falling sharply on Ye Xunhuan, forcing him to change what he was about to say to "President!"
"Is Xiao Jiu’s matter resolved?"
"It’s resolved," Ye Xunhuan said nonchalantly, "He’s been sent back to his place."
Qiu Ruoxi didn’t ask further and resumed eating.
Seeing this, Ye Xunhuan softly spoke again, "About that matter, President, may I discuss something with you?"
"What is it?" Qiu Ruoxi looked up at Ye Xunhuan and asked in a neutral tone.
Ye Xunhuan gave an awkward smile, "I have something tonight, could you possibly..."
"Your personal time is none of my business!" Qiu Ruoxi said icily, "Do whatever you want, even if it includes dying; I won’t ask!"
After saying these words, anger surged within Qiu Ruoxi. Was this guy brazenly telling her that he wouldn’t be coming home tonight and planned to visit another woman?
Seeing Qiu Ruoxi’s cold demeanor, Ye Xunhuan knew she had misunderstood. Just as he was about to clarify, his phone rang in his pocket.
This left Ye Xunhuan feeling helpless, and he apologetically glanced at Qiu Ruoxi before taking out his phone.
When he saw the caller ID, Ye Xunhuan’s brows immediately furrowed deeply and his expression turned sour.
