Chapter 279 - 270: Kill to Silence
Chapter 279: Chapter 270: Kill to Silence
Lin Mu thought about it and realized it made sense. Zhou Xun, a pure-hearted girl, was working hard to become a celebrity, and now he’s making her a foot massage parlor owner—it was really too much for her. Besides, she hasn’t become famous yet, so all contradictions are still hidden. If she becomes famous in the future, who knows what scandals might arise. After all, a foot massage parlor is not a place for reputable women! With Zhou Xun’s pure character, if something happened, how could a weak woman like her handle it?
"If that’s the case, alright, but I’ll still give you twenty percent of the foot massage parlor’s shares!" Lin Mu laughed.
"I don’t need it, Brother Lin, you know I’m not someone who cares about money." Zhou Xun waved her hand and said.
"I know, I know you don’t care about money—this is something you deserve because you’ve helped me so much and taken so many risks. This money is your reward; otherwise, I’d seem too stingy, wouldn’t I?" Lin Mu said, wrapping his arm around Zhou Xun’s fragrant shoulder.
Zhou Xun nodded, "Alright, then I’ll just save it for you."
"Save it for me? Hey, does that mean you agree to be with this brother?"
"Go on, keep dreaming..."
Overnight, the news of Zhang Yangwei being wanted spread across every street and alley. In a mansion at the foot of South City Mountain, Lei Qiming stared at the TV screen for a while. It was broadcasting the wanted notice for Zhang Yangwei. Enraged, Lei Qiming grabbed a cup from the table and threw it at the LCD TV. Bang, a hole appeared in the flat-screen TV.
"Damn it, Zhang Yangwei, always causing trouble for me!" Lei Qiming cursed furiously.
Lei Qiming knew the situation was dire. This was no small matter—the police had already issued a wanted notice. If Zhang Yangwei were caught by the police, there was no telling if he would rat him out. If he really confessed, everything he had would be ruined. Judging by Zhang Yangwei’s cowardly nature, he surely couldn’t withstand the police’s interrogation! There are too many ways the police can torment someone these days. Once Zhang Yangwei was caught, he was finished, and even the old man might not be able to save him!
As he thought about it, a hint of murder flashed in Lei Qiming’s eyes. To keep someone from talking, the best way is to ensure they can’t speak! Only by severing his connection with Zhang Yangwei could Lei Qiming completely disentangle himself from this case!
So, Lei Qiming picked up his phone and called Zhang Yangwei. He knew that after Zhang Yangwei escaped, he had been hiding in that apartment in Jinhu Apartments!
The whole day, Zhang Yangwei hadn’t left the room. Of course, because the apartment wasn’t registered in Zhang Yangwei’s name, it was relatively safe. If it were under Zhang Yangwei’s name, he’d definitely not dare to stay there. With the internet so advanced, the police could catch him with just a quick search online.
Zhang Yangwei was a bit hungry. Since he ran there last night, he hadn’t dared to go out to eat. Now it was evening, relatively safer, so Zhang Yangwei decided to disguise himself and go out to buy some food.
Food is essential—skipping a meal makes one starve. If it went on for too long, even if he wasn’t caught by the police, he’d be so hungry he’d want to turn himself in.
Just as Zhang Yangwei crawled out of bed, the phone by the bedside rang. In the dark and quiet room, the sudden noise startled Zhang Yangwei, who was already in a state of high alert!
He picked up his phone and looked—it was none other than his boss, Lei Qiming. Zhang Yangwei had some understanding of Lei Qiming’s power, but he didn’t know that Lei Qiming’s father was the Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee in Wancheng. All of Zhang Yangwei’s hopes now rested on Lei Qiming!
"Boss!" Zhang Yangwei exclaimed excitedly, planning to wait until the heat died down before contacting Lei Qiming. Who would have thought Lei Qiming would reach out to him first? His boss must have known about his situation.
Lei Qiming replied on the other end without anger, which surprised Zhang Yangwei. Normally, if he made even the slightest mistake, Lei Qiming would curse him out.
"Yangwei, where are you now?" Lei Qiming asked, even sounding somewhat affectionate.noveldrama
"Boss, I’m really sorry, I messed up the job. Now the police are after me everywhere, but I’ve found a place to hide."
Zhang Yangwei didn’t disclose his exact location to Lei Qiming. He wasn’t stupid—what if he told the boss and his boss sent someone to kill him to silence him?
"I already know about the situation, and it’s not your fault. I was careless and underestimated things. There’s no place for you in Wancheng now, so you must leave there quickly. For the sake of all the years you’ve been with me, I’ll give you some travel money and get you out of Wancheng tonight. After that, don’t ever show your face in Wancheng again!" Lei Qiming said calmly.
Zhang Yangwei understood that unless he wanted to go to jail, he absolutely couldn’t stay in Wancheng. Hearing that Lei Qiming was still willing to help him through this crisis, he was almost moved to tears! He never expected his boss to be so loyal—he hadn’t bet on the wrong person!
"Boss, thank you so much. I can never repay your great kindness in this life, even by serving as a horse or an ox!" Zhang Yangwei thanked emotionally.
"Alright, no matter what, you’re my man too. Protecting you is like protecting myself. We’re all in this together!" Lei Qiming said, full of righteousness.
"Then boss, I’ll come to see you right away!" Zhang Yangwei said.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yangwei felt a bit excited. He then disguised himself and headed downstairs, grabbed a taxi, and drove towards the Lei Mansion at the foot of South City Mountain!
Twenty minutes later, Zhang Yangwei arrived at the Lei Mansion. Two security guards at the entrance came forward as he got out of the car,
"Brother Wei, this way please."
Seeing Zhang Yangwei arrive, the two security guards quickly came over to greet him. Zhang Yangwei nodded,
"Where’s Boss Lei?"
"In the back garden, Boss Lei has been waiting for you!" the security guard in a black suit said.
"Oh, take me there then!" Zhang Yangwei nodded.
With the guidance of the security guard in black, Zhang Yangwei walked towards the back garden of the Lei Mansion. Strangely, he felt uneasy, as if a chill ran up his spine, expecting a dagger could pierce his heart at any moment!
The security guard in black brought Zhang Yangwei to the back garden, stopping in a small grove.
"Where is Boss Lei?" Zhang Yangwei asked cautiously. There was no one here, and Lei Qiming wouldn’t meet him in such a dark place!
Lei Qiming wasn’t there, and the security guard had brought him here, meaning there was only one possibility—murder to silence him!
These words kept circling in Zhang Yangwei’s mind. Given his understanding of Lei Qiming, after making such a huge mistake, there was no way Lei Qiming would let him go easily. The call saying he wouldn’t hold him accountable and would help him leave Wancheng was likely just a ploy to buy time, making it easier for him to act!
