703: No matter who the other party is, as long as they hurt Qingge, there is only one way out, death -
Dusk gradually settled.
The city's neon lights flickered on one by one, adorning the streets with vibrant colors.
Lin Xuan was sitting in his car, toying with the dazzling "ocean heart" in his hand, eager to return home.
He couldn't wait to give this gem to Su Qingge, imagining her surprised expression when she received the gift... As for the 'Doctor' matter, he entrusted Li Jie with full responsibility.
He had absolute trust in Li Jie's capabilities.
However, just as he was about to start the car and head home, his phone rang abruptly, breaking Lin Xuan's pleasant reverie.
"Ding-a-ling-a-ling—"
As soon as Lin Xuan answered the call, Li Jie's deep, serious voice immediately came through from the other end:
"Boss, the 'Doctor' said he has important intelligence to report."
"He said that someone from the Dark Shadow Alliance is planning to harm the Su Family, and he needs to tell you the specifics in person..."
"..."
After listening to Li Jie's account, Lin Xuan's face instantly darkened, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
He wasn't worried about his own safety, but about his wife.
No matter who the opponent was, or which force they came from... as long as there was a possibility of threatening his wife, he would definitely uproot them and eliminate them completely—
"I understand." Lin Xuan's voice was as cold as ice. "Keep an eye on him; I'll be right back."
Beep beep beep—
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xuan's gaze became as sharp as a knife.
He quickly got out of the car and sped towards Li Jie's location... In a dimly lit room.
The 'Doctor' was unbound and tied to a chair, trembling.
This was because Li Jie stood by his side, glaring at him fiercely.
The dagger in his hand glinted with a cold light under the lamp.
"Boss will be here soon; you'd best not try any tricks."
"..."
A hint of viciousness flashed in the 'Doctor's' eyes, but on the surface, he nodded repeatedly in submission.
"Don't worry, I'll cooperate!"
"I will cooperate fully! I'll tell you everything I know."
"..."
Just then!
The door was pushed open, and Lin Xuan strode in.
His gaze, cold as frost, fell directly on the 'Doctor'.
That gaze felt almost tangible, causing the 'Doctor' to shiver involuntarily.
"Speak. Who wants to harm me? Tell me everything you know clearly."
"..."
Lin Xuan's voice was low, devoid of any warmth.
The 'Doctor' subconsciously swallowed, and fine cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
But he still feigned composure, saying cautiously:
"Young Master Lin, it's people from the Dark Shadow Alliance."
"They recently smuggled in an assassination squad, specializing in high-difficulty missions."
"I happened to have met some of their members a few times, and I heard them say..."
"Someone offered a large sum of money to harm you and your wife..."
"..."
Hearing this, Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes.
On his way here, he had already roughly investigated the background of the Dark Shadow Alliance through various channels.
This notorious organization of desperadoes in Southeast Asia consists mostly of 'serious criminals' wanted by Interpol.
As long as the price is right, they can commit arson, murder, and all sorts of evil deeds.
Smuggling across borders, human trafficking, telecommunications fraud, and other criminal activities—they provide all kinds of illicit services... Clearly, someone had secretly hired them to deal with him this time.
And the most likely suspect... Lin Xuan already had a guess in his heart, he just wanted further confirmation from the 'Doctor's' mouth... "Continue," Lin Xuan's voice was icy.
The 'Doctor' hesitated for a moment, a hint of eagerness flashing in his eyes, and began to beat around the bush.
"Young Master Lin, I can tell you everything I know."
"But you have to promise... that you will release me afterward."
"..."
Hmph! (• ́へ • ́╬)
Still daring to make conditions?
Is this a threat to him?!
A flicker of impatience crossed Lin Xuan's eyes, but in order to get the information quickly.
He still nodded with a cold face:
"Alright, I promise you."
"..."
To the side.
Li Jie, hearing this, frowned deeply, his lips moved as if to speak, but he held back, his eyes full of unwillingness.
He clenched his fists, the hatred for the 'Doctor' in his heart almost gushing out.
But Lin Xuan had shown him great kindness, so he could only suppress the intense resentment within him and silently accept this cold reality... Seeing Lin Xuan agree, the 'Doctor' unconsciously showed a smug smile.
He provocatively glanced at Li Jie, as if to say:
"What can you do to me?"
Immediately, Li Jie's face twitched slightly with anger, his eyes filled with murderous intent, yet he was helpless...
