Minutes later, Luo Sihai got the news, Blood Rose left with a bag from the Ferrari.
“Boss, just got news, the woman left, seems like she took something from Li Ziyen’s car.”
“Oh?” Su Lin nodded, “Keep watching that woman, and inform me when Li Ziyu arrives.”
“Yes, Boss!!”
Ten minutes later, Li Ziyu arrived at the hotel with an assistant, and Luo Sihai went down to greet her. Seeing Luo Sihai warmly welcoming Li Ziyu, many people’s gazes flickered, it seemed like Luo Sihai thought of a way out of his predicament.
“President Li…”
Li Ziyu glanced at Luo Sihai, then indifferently said, “Where’s Su Lin?”
“The boss is in the upstairs lounge.”
Li Ziyu was surprised at Luo Sihai, she thought he was just bluffing, but now it seemed he was determined to side with Su Lin. Su Lin was just Su Zhenguo’s son after all, Li Ziyu was curious, what made Su Lin so special to deserve Luo Sihai’s allegiance.
“Take me to him then.”
“Sure~!!”
Luo Sihai took Li Ziyu to the lounge: “Boss, President Li is here.”
Su Lin and Li Ziyu looked at each other. Su Lin observed Li Ziyu’s snow-white swan neck, indeed, this woman’s neck was truly beautiful, unlike other women who stood out for their long legs, slim waist, or large busts, Li Ziyu was uniquely different, her swan neck always attracted the most attention.
Seeing Li Ziyu’s figure, not inferior to Lin Xiaowan’s, today she wore glasses and a white super-wave suit, appearing knowledgeable and charming, stable and atmospheric.
To Li Ziyu, Su Lin’s first impression was handsome! Besides being handsome, he seemed like any ordinary person.
She indifferently said, “Su Shao, your gaze is quite impolite.”
Su Lin was surprised, “Is it? My gaze is quite good, just simply admiring.”
Su Lin was puzzled, why could Xiao Chen simply admire, and his own simple admiration was not allowed. Women, you are too double-standard. Thinking of this woman as Xiao Chen’s fiancée, Su Lin suddenly felt excited for some reason.
“Su Lin, let’s get to business.”
Su Lin nodded, “Then let’s talk business, now I call the shots in Sihai Group. President Li, should we settle our account?”
“I have prepared 2.5 billion, but I must remind Young Master Su, are you sure you want to take over this matter? Keep in mind, although the Qin family is a big tree, it might not be able to protect you.”
Su Lin lightly laughed, “President Li, you better worry about yourself more. By the way, I can give you some good news for free, your brother Li Ziyen is dead.”
Li Ziyu suddenly stood up, her usually calm face finally showing change, “What did you say?”
“I said your brother Li Ziyen is dead.” After saying that, Su Lin added, “I know who killed him, but that requires something from you in exchange.”
Li Ziyu stood there, her expression fluctuating, Su Lin’s news was too explosive. Li Ziyen suddenly died. If Li Ziyen died at this time, then her position as the general manager might be secure.
“Why should I believe you?”
Su Lin smiled, “Li Ziyen’s body should still be in the car downstairs. If you don’t believe me, you can go check.”
Hearing this, Li Ziyu believed Su Lin’s words by eighty percent: “The money can be given to you, tell me who the murderer is.”
Su Lin waved his hand, “President Li, you might be mistaken. That money is originally mine, which you ought to give. As for who the killer is, that’s a separate price.”
Li Ziyu’s face changed, then she said, “Young Master Su, name your price.”
Su Lin smiled, “I heard President Li has a strange jade pendant, keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer, wearing it wards off evil spirits.”
“No, that’s absolutely not possible. That jade pendant is passed down from my great-grandfather, it’s a family heirloom.”
The family records mention this jade pendant is very magical and has been with the family since its foundation. Li Ziyu always thought it was extraordinary, never expecting Su Lin would set his sights on her jade pendant.
Su Lin nonchalantly said, “If it’s not possible, then it’s not. Today, Miss Li came to our Sihai Group, and for some reason Li Ziyen died in a car outside Sihai Group. I think this matter won’t remain unnoticed. If you can’t find the murderer, then I guess the Li family will become quite interesting.”
“Despicable!”
Su Lin nodded earnestly, “Correct, I am despicable. But, President Li, don’t forget your words almost killed our old Luo. If it weren’t for him having nowhere else to turn and seeking refuge with me, he might have been swimming in the Donghua by now.”
“As the saying goes, fortune turns like a wheel; this year it’s come to my house. You can choose not to give, and I can choose not to tell who it is. This transaction is fair and square.”
Li Ziyu didn’t expect to be caught by Su Lin today. She admits she underestimated Su Lin, and her lack of preparation led to her current passive situation.
If she had known a bit more about Su Lin, then her preparation would have been more adequate, and she would have more leeway in negotiations.
“Isn’t there another option?”
Su Lin shook his head, “My apologies, there really isn’t.”
“I can trade with you, but I want to set three rules.”
Su Lin nodded, “Okay, tell me.”
“That jade pendant, you can’t lose it. In the future, I still want to trade it back with you.” Li Ziyu said seriously.
Su Lin hesitated for a moment and said, “I can’t guarantee that, and once something is in my hands, it’s absolutely impossible to trade it back.”
“How about this, we set three rules. If we trade again in the future, this jade pendant must be the traded item. Since you think that something once in your hands won’t go out, why not try?”
Su Lin said, “Provocation? That doesn’t work on me. But I can agree to your request.”
Li Ziyu didn’t expect Su Lin to change his stance, she took off the jade pendant from around her neck and handed it to Su Lin.
Su Lin received it, feeling the coolness emanating from the pendant, “Indeed warm in winter and cool in summer, it’s a rare treasure.”
Li Ziyu’s face slightly reddened for a moment, she looked at Su Lin, “Now can you tell me who the murderer is?”
Su Lin nodded, “Of course! The murderer is the silver-ranked assassin Blood Rose, who is currently on the run from an assassin organization, and the person who instructed her is your cheap fiancé, Xiao Chen.”
“How is that possible!!!” This time, Li Ziyu completely lost her composure, her face full of disbelief.
Although her engagement to Xiao Chen wasn’t a secret in Donghua, those people didn’t know the protagonist was named Xiao Chen, and Su Lin directly mentioned Xiao Chen’s name, how could she not be shocked.
More shockingly, the person who ordered her brother’s murder was her own fiancé, isn’t this too fantastical? And Su Lin, where did he get this information from, what’s his source, and why is he so mysterious? In an instant, Li Ziyu felt her brain wasn’t working fast enough.
Su Lin sat there quietly watching her, it had to be said that Li Ziyu was stunningly beautiful. She was like a snow lotus from heaven, just one glance could instill a sense of awe, both beautiful and mysterious.
“I can tell you the rough location of that assassin now.”
Li Ziyu looked deeply at Su Lin, “Name your terms.”
Su Lin shook his head, “This one’s on the house, free! There’s one more thing I haven’t told you, after you’ve dealt with this matter, if you’re interested, you can come find me, and I’ll tell you.”
“What is it?”
“It’s why Xiao Chen would order someone to kill your brother, don’t you want to know? Once I catch Xiao Chen, I will naturally know the answer.” Su Lin made a gesture of invitation.
Li Ziyu looked deeply at Su Lin again, then left without any delay.
