In the silent atmosphere, time passed by minute by minute.

Lin Zhong was still waiting patiently.

Wang Jiahao was like an ant on a hot pot next to him.

"Manager Zhang, this issue is very important. You must recall it and never forget it!" He finally couldn't bear it anymore and reminded him.

"Shh!"

Fu Xingling frowned and made a silence gesture towards Wang Jiahao.

Wang Jiahao quickly shut his mouth.

After Wang Jiahao's interruption, Zhang Xiaomei seemed to have remembered something, and said hesitantly: "I...I remember that Your Excellency Gong Yuanlong met three people."

"Which three?" Fu Xingling asked on behalf of Lin Zhong.

Lin Zhong's status was too high and his momentum was too strong. If he asked the question in person, it would inevitably make Zhang Xiaomei panic like before.

It would be more appropriate for Fu Xingling to step in on his behalf.

Seeing that the person asking the question was changed from Lin Zhong to Fu Xingling, Zhang Xiaomei's nervousness was greatly relieved.

She glanced at Wang Jiahao secretly and whispered: "The first one is our boss."

"Leader Lin, I was wronged!"

Wang Jiahao never expected that Zhang Xiaomei would drag him into the water, and he was immediately shocked: "Gong Yuanlong summoned me just to talk to me about hosting a banquet for you in Yulou Garden. Apart from that, I have no other interactions with him.

....."

Lin Zhong raised his hand and pressed it gently to stop Wang Jiahao's defense. Then he looked at Zhang Xiaomei and motioned for her to continue speaking.

"The second person is His Excellency Xu Weiyang of Yaori Sect."

Zhang Xiaomei lowered his head, his chin almost touched his chest, and did not dare to look at Wang Jiahao's eyes that were about to burst into flames: "I don't know the third person. His Excellency Gong Yuanlong seems to call him Mr. Ai."

Fu Xingling immediately asked: "What does Mr. Ai look like?"

"Tall, strong, and fair-skinned."

Zhang Xiaomei recalled slowly while saying: "About thirty years old, he looks a bit like a mixed race, his hair is a little curly, his eyes are blue, his facial features are very clear, and he is wearing a light gray suit."

"Do you think Mr. Ai is from Yanhuang?"

"I haven't spoken to him personally, so I can't tell."

Zhang Xiaomei shook his head slightly hesitantly.

"Besides your boss, Mr. Xu Weiyang, and finally Mr. Ai, has Gong Yuanlong met anyone else?"

"I...that's all I have in mind."

Zhang Xiaomei's voice became lower and lower as he spoke, seeming to lack confidence: "Your Excellency Gong Yuanlong is a big shot that I can't reach. He can kill me with just a snap of his fingers. If he really wants to keep a secret, I can't possibly know..."

Fu Xingling finished asking all the questions and turned back to look at Lin Zhong.

Lin Zhong nodded slightly.

So Fu Xingling walked up to Zhang Xiaomei and said pleasantly: "Manager Zhang, please excuse me. The information you provided is very valuable. On behalf of the leader, I would like to thank you for your cooperation."

"No...you're welcome."

Zhang Xiaomei was flattered and quickly glanced at Lin Zhong behind Fu Xingling, then quickly lowered her gaze and said solemnly: "Then can I go?"

"sure."

Fu Xingling stretched out a hand and supported Zhang Xiaomei's arm: "I'll give it to you."

After Zhang Xiaomei left, Wang Jiahao hurriedly said to Lin Zhong: "Leader Lin, please listen to my explanation. I did meet Gong Yuanlong alone, but..."

"No need to explain."

Lin Zhong said calmly: "I believe Mr. Wang."

Hearing Lin Zhong personally admit that he believed in him, Wang Jiahao was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

Of the thousands of words others said, not one of Lin Zhong's words was of any use.

Wang Jiahao's anxious heart finally fell back into his stomach, and he flattered Lin Zhong: "Leader Lin, you are really perceptive and wise. Gong Yuanlong, that old turtle, actually wants to harm you. His conscience has been eaten by dogs!

"

"Gong Yuanlong is dead, and all grudges are gone."

Lin Zhong said expressionlessly: "Mr. Wang, please practice your moral integrity."

"Yes, yes, yes..."

The flattery hit the horse's hooves, and Wang Jiahao's face turned the color of pig liver, and he wanted to slap himself in the mouth.

"And what happened today, I don't want anyone to know about it."

Lin Zhong turned a blind eye to Wang Jiahao's embarrassment. A spineless wallflower like this should be treated with both kindness and power to prevent him from fearing power and being unethical: "I hope Mr. Wang can keep the secret."

Wang Jiahao hurriedly patted his chest to ensure that he would keep his mouth shut.

After beating up Wang Jiahao, Lin Zhong stopped delaying and left Xu Feng to cooperate with the Wuji Sect to deal with the aftermath, while he left with Xue Nai and Fu Xingling.

Wang Jiahao watched Lin Zhong walk away. After he was completely out of sight, he stood up straight and let out a long breath, as if he had been relieved of a huge burden.

Xu Feng looked at this scene with a half-smile.

"I'm sorry, Brother Xu, for making you laugh."

Wang Jiahao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear: "You, Alliance Leader Lin, ugh, tsk tsk..."

He smacked his mouth a few times and searched his brain, but couldn't find a suitable adjective.

"Our alliance leader is a lord who can't take anything away from him. He is powerful, skillful, and resourceful. In just a few days, he has managed to keep everything in the martial alliance submissive. How do you still want to show off in front of him?

You just don’t know how to live or die." Xu Feng gloated.

Wang Jiahao and Xu Feng had known each other for a long time, so they were not angry. They pretended to be angry and said: "Just now you didn't say a few nice words to my brother. It's so meaningless!"

"I do want to help you."

Xu Feng spread his hands: "I'm afraid it will be a disservice."

"Since ancient times, accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger."

Wang Jiahao looked at Xu Feng with sympathetic eyes: "Brother, you will have to suffer a lot in the future. Otherwise, quit your job and join our Baolin Sect. With your strength and resume, being an elder is more than enough."

Xu Feng was silent for a moment, then suddenly said with a strange expression: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the leader these words?"

"No, no, no, no, no."

Wang Jiahao was startled and raised his hands in surrender: "I admit defeat, just pretend I didn't mention it."

"Haha, just kidding."

Xu Feng was very satisfied with Wang Jiahao's reaction.

"It's better to make less jokes like this in the future."

Wang Jiahao pretended to pat his chest and scolded: "If you make too many jokes, they will become true. The friendship between us brothers has been hard-won for more than ten years. We should cherish it and don't turn against each other like Gong Yuanlong and Xu Weiyang."

..."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Jiahao suddenly remembered Lin Zhong's warning and suddenly stopped talking.

"Brother Wang, you must change this bad habit of speaking without restraint from now on."

Xu Feng shook his head and sighed: "Although Gong Yuanlong is dead, the other members of the Wuji Sect are still alive. If they hear you, be careful and take them away."

Wang Jiahao opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Because he found that he had indeed been negligent.
