In the restaurant lobby, Huo Qingshu was still sitting in his original position, with his back straight and meticulous.
When he saw Mr. Shen coming back alone, he was surprised, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"Let her run away!" Mr. Shen shook his head helplessly, took off his hat and put it on the table, then sat opposite Huo Qingshu.
Huo Qingshu lifted the teapot on the table, poured a cup of hot tea for Mr. Shen, and said slowly: "With your ability, she shouldn't be able to escape."
"Indeed..." Mr. Shen raised a cup to drink tea, but there were a few deep wrinkles between his eyebrows. He pursed his lips and said with a wry smile, "I'm still not used to drinking it. Coffee is not as good as it is."
Huo Qingshu didn't answer, just looked into the other person's eyes.
Mr. Shen put down the tea cup and explained to the other party: "It was originally a sure thing, but someone intervened and she ran away."
"Who?" Huo Qingshu asked in one word.
"Tang Long!" Mr. Shen's answer was equally concise.
"Tang Long? Why is he here? And why is he meddling in other people's business? Does he know Gong Ling? Or... the Tang family is connected with the 'Ye Motian'?" Huo Qingshu couldn't quite figure it out and put forward a series of questions.
question.
"I don't know." Mr. Shen shook his head. "He came to you last time to talk about cooperation, but you didn't agree. Maybe it made him feel uncomfortable and deliberately hindered him."
"Impossible!" Huo Qingshu immediately denied this speculation, "Tang Long is a smart man, and it is impossible to be upset about such a trivial matter. It should be for other reasons!"
"No matter what, be careful with the Tang family!" Mr. Shen did not refute, but reminded, "Tang Long is the most outstanding genius of this generation of the Tang family. Maybe what he represents is the will of the old antiques from the Tang family!"
"I know, let's take a look and talk!" Huo Qingshu squinted his eyes slightly and held up his chin with his hand, as if thinking, "Just one Tang Long is not terrible, but if it is the entire Tang family, no matter how cautious you are!
"
…
Ye Xingyu had no idea that after he left, Gong Ling experienced a series of thrilling events.
Fortunately, Tang Long came to the rescue and Gong Ling was able to escape successfully. Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have been able to escape on her own.
Although Huo Qingshu is not an ancient warrior, he is smart and good at planning. Now that he has set up this situation, he has already calculated it clearly. The only unexpected variable is Tang Long who should not have appeared.
Mr. Shen's strength is far superior to Gong Ling, and he is a master of Dan Jin level. However, Gong Ling's actual combat level cannot even reach An Jin level, but he is better at sneaking and escaping.
If Gong Ling is captured, becomes a prisoner, or even dies miserably, then Ye Xingyu will suffer a big loss, losing part of his soul power in vain, and will also lose a clue, and he will not have time to ask clearly about the poison.
Things in the world are changing rapidly, and no one can account for everything.
Ye Xingyu didn't expect that Gong Ling would be in danger as soon as he left.
Huo Qingshu did not expect that Tang Long would appear in time to stop Mr. Shen.
No matter how smart people are, they sometimes make mistakes.
Often what seems to be an inevitable result will eventually change its direction due to some small accidents.
Whether you succeed or not, you should do your best and obey the destiny. Even if you put in all your efforts and exhaust all your mechanisms, you will probably be unable to defeat the arrangements of fate.
Ye Xingyu left in a hurry because of Lin Shanya's call. The place they agreed to meet was still in the city. It was a well-known buffet restaurant. It would take nearly an hour under normal driving.
When he arrived at the restaurant, it was already past one o'clock at noon. There were only a few customers, but Lin Shanya was not seen.
Logically speaking, Lin Shanya was closer and should have arrived first, so why was there no sign of her?
She is not the kind of person who is always on time. She is usually punctual, but this time she seemed a little abrupt.
Ye Xingyu stood at the door of the restaurant and made a phone call to ask about the situation there. The reply he got was: He will be there soon, about ten minutes.
He didn't talk nonsense and ended the call after asking because Lin Shanya was driving and it was inconvenient to talk too much.
Afterwards, Ye Xingyu walked into the restaurant, found a conspicuous place to sit down, and waited quietly.
Not long after, Lin Shanya appeared.
She is not alone, there is Yawei behind her.
Yawei has to protect Lin Shanya at all times and follow her wherever she goes. It is not surprising that the two of them appeared together.
Lin Shanya is one of the twelve ladies of the imperial capital, and can be said to be the most beautiful among them. She has excellent appearance and refined temperament. She attracts the attention and attention of many people as soon as she enters the door.
But Yawei, who is almost 100% similar to her, looks very low-key, wearing a hat on her head, a mask on her face, and even a pair of black sunglasses, even her eyes are blocked, as if she has no face to see people.
Similar.
Although Yawei has a good figure, with a slim waist and long legs, because she does not show her face, it is easy to be ignored when standing next to Lin Shanya, who is too dazzling.
Lin Shanya saw Ye Xingyu as soon as she entered the door, walked over and sat opposite him, while Yawei sat next to Lin Shanya.
"Sorry, I'm late!" Lin Shanya said this, but her face was radiant and she seemed a little excited.
Ye Xingyu noticed this and asked, "What's wrong? What good thing happened to you?"
Lin Shanya leaned her head over and lowered her voice: "Just before I left the house, I met the kidnapper in the parking lot!"
"What?" Ye Xingyu was surprised. He didn't expect that someone would dare to go against President Lin Da.
However, Lin Shanya was protected by Yawei, so she could not suffer any loss. Ye Xingyu was not worried and asked casually: "Where is the kidnapper? Was he maimed by Yawei's punch?"
"No!" Lin Shanya smiled, raised her fist and gestured proudly, "I didn't let Yawei do it, I did it myself, and as a result, I beat away more than a dozen big men, easily.
Effortless!”
Ye Xingyu smiled, which was also his own fault.
The delicate and weak woman in the past has transformed into a top ancient warrior of her family. Even without Yawei's protection, it would be difficult for Lin Shanya to suffer.
"Hey, I'm awesome, right? Why don't you praise me?" Lin Shanya changed her past cold and arrogant attitude, looking a little youthful and playful.
This is the sequelae of using one against many, killing all around, and finally becoming a god, and the mentality is a little wandering.
Ye Xingyu was too lazy to flatter her and directly asked the key: "Have you ever cross-examined who sent her?"
"Asked!" Lin Shanya put away her smile and answered seriously: "Those people are all Yan Shaohui's subordinates. As for the specific reasons, no one knows. They just obey orders."
"Yan Shaohui? A member of the Yan family? What is his relationship with Yan Shaoze?" Ye Xingyu has never cared much about secular families, and he has never heard of this name.
But since this person's surname is Yan, he can easily be associated with Yan Shaoze and the Yan family.
