Chapter 2 The Two Suspicious People
A person silently walked out of the Phoenix Bar's third basement level.
Lin Zheng observed behind him discreetly and, sure enough, discovered that someone was secretly following him from a distance.
And it seems there's more than one person! There are both men and women.
I didn't expect that several of the girls in the private room were like that! Jiang Huaimeng is very cautious in her actions.
I just don't know if that disclaimer will be enough to cover things up for now.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Huaimeng's love-starved personality, even if what he just said seemed abrupt to Lin Zheng, a playboy, it should have shaken her resolve and prevented her from harming him again.
A man pushed open the door of the bar, and staff members kept greeting him, but Lin Zheng ignored them.
Looking at the parking lot in the distance, according to the later plot of the book, he was surrounded and attacked by a group of big men while walking towards the parking lot.
He was dragged to a back street and kicked repeatedly until he died.
As I slowly took my first steps forward, the parking lot, which was only about ten meters away, seemed incredibly far.
Halfway there, Lin Zheng noticed two men in black slowly walking towards him from the opposite direction.
He glanced at the two people out of the corner of his eye.
He put his hand in his pocket and gripped the folding dagger that he had been hiding inside.
Although he had done everything he could, if his plan failed, Lin Zheng would have no choice but to fight to the death. He didn't want to experience the kind of helpless death described in the books.
Fortunately, he managed to pass by the two of them in the end, and Lin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief before heading to his Rolls-Royce.
The driver saw him approaching and started the vehicle early to open the door for Lin Zheng.
Just as Lin Zheng was about to get into the car...
Suddenly, more than a dozen burly men appeared beside him.
They were all dressed in black suits, their burly figures forming a wall around him. The leader spoke up: "Young Master Lin, we're sorry."
what?
Lin Zheng wondered if his plan had truly failed. It didn't make sense.
According to the plot of the book, this is only the middle stage, and Jiang Huaimeng shouldn't have turned so evil as to kill without blinking an eye.
However, according to the plot, being caught by these guys means certain death.
"What do you want to do?"
The leader said expressionlessly, "You'll find out soon enough."
There's no other way; we can't afford to let them catch us in this situation. We have to run first!
Lin Zheng slowly stepped back a few steps, and as the other person reached out to him, Lin Zheng quickly pulled out a dagger from his pocket and slashed the other person's arm.
With so many people and their size advantage, they definitely couldn't win a fight, so they could only take advantage of the chaos to leave first.
"Damn it! Grab him! Don't let him get away!" The burly man with the slashed arm gave the order, and a group of people rushed towards Lin Zheng.
Just as Lin Zheng was about to walk out of the parking lot and turn the corner, he found that about ten more people had appeared in front of him.
They were all bodyguards, and twenty or thirty of them surrounded him.
Lin Zheng smiled.
It just goes to show that this really fits Jiang Huaimeng's cautious personality; she never leaves anyone a way out when she does things.
Fine, so what if there are more of you? I'll avoid your confrontation!
Lin Zheng rushed forward, wanting to fight them to the death, but someone grabbed his nose and smelled a strong chemical odor.
The next second, he lost consciousness.
----------
Half an hour ago, in the study on the second floor of a luxury villa.
A young girl dressed casually with her hair in a ponytail pushed a wheelchair to the front of the monitoring area.
"Mr. Jiang, what would you like to drink?"
The woman in the wheelchair was wearing a black women's suit, and seemed to have just returned from somewhere and had not yet changed out of her formal attire.
Her long, black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and the light from the monitor screen in the study illuminated her fair and beautiful profile.
Her red lips parted slightly: "No need, the person hasn't arrived yet?"
"We'll be there soon, but..." The young girl seemed to know the young lady's current mood, and said somewhat dejectedly:
"However, I hope President Jiang won't take what he sees too seriously. This kind of scoundrel is not worthy of you. Those people are just making wild guesses."
The woman in the wheelchair did not answer, but only said:
"Alright, enough talk. Since Father has agreed, then he is of course my fiancé. It's just that we may not be destined to be together. Whatever he does later, just have someone do it his way."
"Yes, Mr. Jiang."
The secretary and Jiang Huaimeng stared at the party scene on the screen together.
In the secretary's view, today's surveillance is unnecessary, because it is not difficult to investigate the other party's character.
Lin Zheng, the youngest son of the Lin family, spends his days indulging in decadent places and has never achieved anything in his career. He is a well-known playboy. For a man like this, it's best to just make him disappear from Jiangcheng.
To live is to insult President Jiang.
It would be redundant to kill him after witnessing him doing those things to women.
However, President Jiang is meticulous, and there are many things she really can't guess. As someone who has followed Jiang Huaimeng since childhood, all she needs to do is listen to her.
The surveillance footage played in segments, showing the rich young men groping and harassing the female companions even before Lin Zheng arrived.
Jiang Huaimeng was used to these kinds of things. She knew what would happen in this situation, so she didn't show any disgust or other expression on her face. She just calmly waited for the fiancé her father had arranged for her.
Not long after, Lin Zheng, dressed in a formal suit, finally appeared on camera.
Lin Zheng was clearly dressed up today; his hair and clothes were styled, and he even wore leather shoes, making him seem out of place in the party's entertainment atmosphere.
Compared to the extravagant young master, he seemed more like someone who came to discuss business.
In contrast to this environment, the secretary frowned in confusion, wondering why he was dressed like this.
Moreover, at first glance, Lin Zheng's appearance and temperament do not seem to match the description in the previous investigation.
According to the information, this person should be an extremely vulgar fellow; you can tell his character at a glance.
But the way he entered was so confident and unpretentious, not at all vulgar, which made him stand out from the rest of the room.
Jiang Huaimeng also had doubts, but she still stared at him expressionlessly, scrutinizing him.
"Oh, Mr. Lin, why are you so late, and still in a suit? Were you out on business today? Come, sit here! That girl has been waiting for you!"
In the video, Lin Zheng sees a girl in the spot the other person is pointing to.
The secretary frowned slightly as she watched this scene. If this guy did anything indecent to the girl and offended the young lady's eyes, she would immediately arrange for someone to take action.
Even a small gesture like putting his arm around someone's waist could kill him tonight.
Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng moved to a secluded spot and opened a bottle of wine for himself, saying, "No need, I'll sit here."
This action left the rich young man and the girl in the scene dumbfounded, as were the secretary and Jiang Huaimeng.
I don't know why.
According to the previous investigation, the girl wearing the bodycon skirt should have been invited by Lin Zheng to spend the night together. What's with her acting all high and mighty now?
