Beautiful CEO's Top Expert-Chapter 877 - 0: Mutual Deception

The night was bleak and flowed like water; darkness enveloped the city’s skyline, while brilliant neon lights illuminated the entire city, making it look like an enchanting city of illusion!

In Jiangzhong City’s business district, a skyscraper that reached into the clouds was still brightly lit.

This skyscraper, known as the Splendid Tower, was the tallest in Jiangzhong City’s business district and housed dozens of the city’s renowned companies.

And the Tenglong Group, a leading internet enterprise in Huaxia, had its branch located within this very building.

Originally, Yan Qingdi had planned to purchase a skyscraper in Jiangzhong and name it Tenglong Tower, but for some reason, he changed his mind and instead moved into Splendid Tower.

However, considering Yan Qingdi’s personality and the strength of Tenglong Group, renaming the skyscraper was just a matter of time.

Although the night was deep, Yan Qingdi hadn’t gone home; he stood in front of the office’s floor-to-ceiling window with a calm and dignified air, looking down at the streets bustling with cars below.

Just moments ago, Yan Qingdi had received a phone call informing him of an assassination attempt on Ye Xunhuan in the hospital, which had failed.

The assailant was captured alive but was killed at the hospital’s entrance.

That person had been sent by Yan Qingdi himself and was also eliminated by his orders!

Yan Qingdi was more than happy to see Lin Zhennan and Ye Xunhuan in a fight to the death, and he didn’t mind fanning the flames to make the storm even fiercer.

Therefore, he had secretly ordered an attack on Ye Xunhuan to intensify the upcoming storm.

Yan Qingdi was well aware of the immense risk involved in attacking Ye Xunhuan, but compared to the benefits to be gained, he considered the risk to be insignificant.

Besides, is there such a thing as a free lunch?

If you want something, you must be willing to pay the price.

Moreover, Yan Qingdi was not afraid of Ye Xunhuan finding out it was him behind the attack. Even if they did find out, what could they possibly do?

They had no evidence right now, and even if Qin Rumeng got wind of it, could she kill him over that?

Yan Qingdi also knew that his failure would definitely make Ye Xunhuan more vigilant, but if he didn’t do it and let the Lin family take the initiative, it would be worse if they pinned the blame on him. He would rather do it himself!

And it’s not as if Ye Xunhuan had ever looked upon him favorably, right?

Of course, the best outcome would be to kill Ye Xunhuan, but unfortunately, he had failed at this attempt.

Besides, there are probably no fools among people around Ye Xunhuan, are there?

The smarter the person, the more likely they are to complicate things, to overthink; they might not believe the truth. That’s why Yan Qingdi was not afraid at all of being betrayed.

Humans are naturally skeptical creatures, especially regarding strangers or enemies, which tends to fuel further suspicions!

So even in the face of failure, Yan Qingdi was not without options.

At the same time, Yan Qingdi never expected the man he sent to keep quiet indefinitely. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally instructed him to take action.

Whether or not Ye Xunhuan and his people believe the man if he outs Yan Qingdi, is a whole other matter!

Most importantly, such a development might even lead Ye Xunhuan and his group to suspect the Lin family of trying to drag Yan Qingdi down with them.

Yan Qingdi had calculated everything from the start.

If this man didn’t die after revealing his connection to Yan Qingdi, then Yan Qingdi was prepared to take ruthless measures to silence him!

But that man probably never dreamed that from the moment Yan Qingdi sent him, there was never any intention of letting him survive!

Even if Ye Xunhuan didn’t kill him, Yan Qingdi had no plans to spare his life.

After all, keeping him around is like leaving a ticking time bomb for Yan Qingdi.

When it comes to danger, it’s better to nip it in the bud.

At this moment, Yan Qingdi is entirely playing with fire, walking a tightrope, the kind that gets your heart racing.

Although this person was killed by his own men, the Lin family has yet to make any move, which makes Yan Qingdi somewhat unable to grasp their intentions.

Logically, this should be a golden opportunity, but the other party is still not making their move. What exactly is Lin Zhennan up to, and what is Lin Changfeng here for?

The next moment, Yan Qingdi let out a stifled breath: "Lin Zhennan, Lin Changfeng, you father and son sure know how to keep your composure!"

Now that Yan Qingdi has already taken action once, it’s impossible for him to strike again, after all, he has already alarmed his prey. At the same time, he is not sure if the Lin family has anyone lurking in the shadows at the hospital.

If he acts rashly again, he might very well expose himself.

Now he can only wait, only hope that the Lin family will make a move.

But if Lin Zhennan truly does not act, it’s not a big deal, he has already made his move.

Yan Qingdi didn’t ponder too much, Lin Zhennan indeed had people closely monitoring the hospital surroundings, capturing the scene where Yan Qingdi’s people committed murder.

When this news reached Lin Zhennan’s ears, he was immediately lost in thought.

Who is trying to kill Ye Xunhuan in secret?

And now their attempt has failed and the killer has been silenced?

Could it be that there are others besides myself who want Ye Xunhuan dead, someone else lurking in the dark?

But who could it be?

Lin Zhennan was momentarily at a loss, and couldn’t think of anybody else.

Although he couldn’t think of anyone else who would want Ye Xunhuan dead, this move by Yan Qingdi served as a warning to Lin Zhennan.

It made him realize that Ye Xunhuan’s hospital room was far from simple and that assassinating Ye Xunhuan was almost an impossibility.

To kill Ye Xunhuan, one must use brute force; there is simply no other choice!

Now, Lin Zhennan slowly began to calculate how he should act, how to kill Ye Xunhuan.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he is not willing to pass up.

But Ye Xunhuan is Qin Rumeng’s nephew and a marshal; although Lin Zhennan has not received any news about the Qin family taking action, whether they are making moves in secret is unknown.

So if Lin Zhennan is to act, he must strike like thunder, he must succeed in one fell swoop; otherwise, another attempt would definitely be impossible!

Just as Lin Zhennan was contemplating his move, on the other side, Lin Changfeng had already begun his action against Ye Xunhuan.

Lin Changfeng did not tell Lin Zhennan when he came to Jiangzhong City, the two had not communicated at all.

Lin Changfeng came here entirely on his own accord, intending to take out Ye Xunhuan. If he fails, then it will be he who dies, not Lin Zhennan!

As long as Lin Zhennan lives, the Lin family will not fall.

If Lin Zhennan dies, even if he himself survives, he may be able to control the entire Lin family, but it would also lead to the family’s decline and eventual downfall.

Therefore, Lin Zhennan must not die, he must live!
