Gao Xuan never understood where he went wrong, the one who tried to harm others became the victim.
Life is unpredictable, not something that can be explained in a few words.
A cold corpse lay on the ground.
Gao Xuan's eyes were wide open, his eyes full of an unfulfilled gaze.
Bao Hao, enduring the pain of his broken hand, said to Lu Ming, "I killed the person. I'll take the blame."
"En."
Lu Ming said no more and strode out.
No one dared to stop him. After all, Bao Hao was so humble in front of Lu Ming, the subordinates dared not act rashly. Although they didn't understand at all, they still trusted Bao Hao immensely.
Just as Lu Ming stepped out of the warehouse, he heard Bao Hao shout, "From today onwards, the E'en Group is disbanded with immediate effect!"
A notorious assassination organization was disbanded just because of Lu Ming's appearance.
This matter had a significant impact on Jinling.
At the same time.
In the reception room.
Jiang Mengxin sat by the door, her eyes fixed outside, waiting for Lu Ming to return.
Five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes…
Not a single piece of news.
Jiang Mengxin was getting anxious. The expressions of the Gao father and son today were not right. She had a feeling something big was going to happen, and Lu Ming might have already been attacked in the warehouse.
Although Lu Ming was skilled, it was easy to dodge open arrows but hard to guard against hidden ones. What if Lu Ming was ambushed?
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became.
At this moment.
Gao Yuheng walked in with a cup of tea and respectfully placed it in front of Jiang Mengxin, smiling and saying, "Director Jiang, please have some tea."
Jiang Mengxin glanced at it and frowned, "What do you mean? Didn't I say I only wanted plain water? Why did you make me a cup of tea? I won't drink it, take it away."
Hearing this, Gao Yuheng was quite displeased.
But he still maintained a pleasant smile and said calmly, "Director Jiang is a distinguished guest of Biao Niu. How can we neglect you? Plain water is really not presentable. If outsiders knew, they would laugh at us. The tea I'm serving now is top-grade West Lake Longjing, a fine tea. It sells for 3,600 yuan per ounce, very expensive."
Oh?
Jiang Mengxin became interested.
She picked up the teacup and smelled it, exclaiming, "It is indeed a good tea. Young Master Gao has taken great pains."
As she spoke, she also blew on the tea leaves.
Gao Yuheng watched with joy in his heart. This tea not only contained West Lake Longjing but also an aphrodisiac!
Initially, Gao Yuheng had intended to put the aphrodisiac in plain water. However, after testing it, he found that the aphrodisiac would slightly color the plain water and had a faint astringent taste.
With color and taste, any fool would notice something was wrong, and Jiang Mengxin wouldn't be fooled.
He had no choice but to go against Jiang Mengxin's wishes and make a cup of tea.
With the interference of the tea leaves, the color and taste of the aphrodisiac were masked. Unless one was an expert, it would be impossible to detect.
Looking at Jiang Mengxin, it seemed she hadn't noticed.
Gao Yuheng chuckled inwardly, waiting for Jiang Mengxin to drink the aphrodisiac. Within three minutes, she would become infatuated and burn with desire!
At that time, Jiang Mengxin would pounce on him without Gao Yuheng having to make a move.
It was exciting to think about.
Gao Yuheng cursed inwardly: Lu Ming, didn't you like to oppose me and insult me? Today, I'll show you the severe price of insulting me, Gao Yuheng!
He wanted Lu Ming's life and Jiang Mengxin's body.
Gao Yuheng and Gao Xuan had split up their tasks, determined to get rid of the two major troubles, Lu Ming and Jiang Mengxin, within the day.
However.
To his surprise, Jiang Mengxin didn't drink the tea directly!
Jiang Mengxin unscrewed a bottle of unopened mineral water on the table, poured the water into the trash can, and then, in front of Gao Yuheng, slowly poured the cup of tea into the mineral water bottle.
What… what was this operation?
Takeaway?
Gao Yuheng was stunned. He had seen people get takeaway from restaurants, but never from a company!
Moreover, takeaway was usually food, not tea.
"No, Director Jiang, what do you mean by this?" Gao Yuheng asked directly, not understanding.
After pouring out the tea, Jiang Mengxin screwed on the cap, shook it, and said, "This tea has a problem. I'm going to hand it over to the police as evidence."
Huh?
Evidence?
What evidence?
Gao Yuheng didn't understand, "Director Jiang, what do you mean? I don't understand a word."
"Do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?" Jiang Mengxin sneered, "You know better than I do what's in this tea! Gao Yuheng, do you think I'm that easy to fool?"
It was all over. She had seen through him!
Jiang Mengxin was already very wary of Gao Yuheng. After seeing him stubbornly bring a cup of tea, her vigilance increased.
Jiang Mengxin had encountered such things before over the years. Many scumbags had tried to drug her. It was Lu Ming's repeated appearances that prevented danger.
So Jiang Mengxin had experience.
"Gao Yuheng, do you take me for a naive little rabbit?" she said coldly, "You even used such a despicable method as putting an aphrodisiac in tea? Heh, your Gao family is truly trash! Let me tell you, I won't let this matter go. I will definitely hand this tea over to the police to convict you!"
Gao Yuheng's blood ran cold. He never expected that the seemingly naive and sweet Jiang Mengxin would have such a sharp mind.
However.
After a brief moment of panic, he quickly calmed down.
Sue?
Heh.
Gao Yuheng looked at Jiang Mengxin with disdain and said, "Director Jiang, I really didn't realize you had this in you. But do you think you're anywhere right now? You're at Biao Niu, on my territory! You want to sue me? Haha, don't make me laugh. The prerequisite for suing me is being able to walk out of this door!"
As he spoke, a group of security guards rushed in, each holding a large machete and glaring menacingly at Jiang Mengxin.
Judging by their demeanor, they were not here for good.
Gao Yuheng said, "You don't know what's good for you. If you had obediently drunk the aphrodisiac and had a romantic time with me, there would have been no problem. But you insisted on acting smart and causing trouble. You refused the toast and chose the punishment. Director Jiang, I really don't know whether to call you smart or stupid!"
Making a scene on someone else's territory was indeed not a wise move.
Especially since Lu Ming was not around.
Jiang Mengxin glanced at the clock on the wall. Lu Ming had been gone for 20 minutes. Why hadn't he returned yet? After such a long time with no news, what had happened to Lu Ming?
Clearly, Gao Yuheng also saw Jiang Mengxin's thoughts.
He burst into laughter, "Director Jiang, are you still thinking about your useless husband? Do you think he'll come back to save you? Hahaha, you should give up that idea long ago. That scoundrel Lu Ming will never come back."
Never come back?
What did that mean?
Jiang Mengxin glared at Gao Yuheng and demanded, "What did you do to Lu Ming?"
"You can guess, can't you?" Gao Yuheng made a throat-slitting gesture and said with a smile, "Those who offend me will die! To tell you the truth, my father spent 1 million to hire a killer from Jinling's underworld – Bao Hao – to deal with Lu Ming. Not only Bao Hao, but also the E'en Group led by Bao Hao! As someone who grew up in Jinling, you must know the names of Bao Hao and the E'en Group. Do you think Lu Ming can survive Bao Hao's hands?"
Boom!!!
Jiang Mengxin was struck by lightning, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
This time, it was truly bad.
Jiang Mengxin knew perfectly well what kind of person Bao Hao was and what his methods were. When the elder, Jiang Dingbian, was still alive, he had arranged for people to transport a batch of goods, which were then targeted by Bao Hao.
Not only were the goods stolen, but all the escorts were brutally murdered.
Bao Hao and his E'en Group were Jinling's nightmare.
After so many years, she never expected the nightmare, which she thought was long over, to return again.
No matter how skilled Lu Ming was, he was absolutely no match for Bao Hao!
It was over, it was truly over.
Jiang Mengxin regretted it deeply. If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have come to Biao Niu to court disaster. Not only had she fallen into a quagmire, but she had also caused Lu Ming's death.
What a regret.
Seeing Jiang Mengxin's pained expression, Gao Yuheng burst into laughter.
He whistled at Jiang Mengxin and said with a smile, "Scared now? It's good that you're scared. Now I'll give you two choices: either you take off your clothes yourself and let me have some fun; or let my brothers help you take off your clothes and play with you together. Director Jiang, you choose."
