Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1009: Finally Met (1)

In the hotel, Wei Changqing had made the arrangements.

Zhan Dapeng saw that he was about to take action and asked him, "Wasn’t there no clue at all?"

"If it is as we suspect, and there are indeed several forces in action, someone will definitely want to escape this place. I will set up ambushes in some locations on the outskirts of the city suitable for pursuit; maybe we can gain some insights," Wei Changqing replied.

The others, upon hearing this, all knew that he was professional in this regard, a true hunter, and thus no one contradicted him.

Zhang Sanfeng watched his back as he opened the door and walked out, and his gaze couldn’t help but flicker.

Zhan Dapeng noticed this expression and asked, "Third Brother?"

"It’s nothing, I just feel—"

"Should we remind him to be careful?" Zhan Dapeng asked nervously.

Zhang Sanfeng shook his head, "Hasn’t he also said about me that my sixth sense isn’t always entirely accurate? Forget it, let things take their course."

Outside, although there were police cars and fire trucks deploying within the city, they were all gathered around the hotel where the incident occurred. Whether the news broadcasted on TV was real or fake, whether Rogers was a big fraud, all required police investigation to determine. Thus, the entire city had not fallen into chaos yet; the police had not issued an all-city manhunt.

Wei Changqing’s decision was correct; they must act first. They couldn’t just sit and wait for death. They couldn’t wait until the local police took action to make their move; by then, who knew what situation Gu Nuan would be in.

Any opportunity, they had to give it their all.

Zhang Sanfeng pondered over what he could do, and turned to Zhan Dapeng, saying, "Help me open the computer and keep an eye on the fluctuations in the global stock market."

"Okay," Zhan Dapeng nodded as though he could guess his thoughts.

No matter what these crazy people wanted to do, wasn’t it all for money?

In the garage

The atmosphere was tense and on edge.

Gu Nuan squinted her eyes.

It was Zhuang Haoxiong.

Although the person deliberately altered his voice, Gu Nuan didn’t need to hear the voice. From some inherent habits and deeply ingrained traits of his movements, she could immediately distinguish real from fake.

In Duke Philips Castle, if the Fox King’s mask had fallen into Zhuang Haoxiong’s hands, wouldn’t that mean that the original lady of the castle, Mrs. Melissa, was?

Feeling her hand nervously touch her clothing at her chest, Neo slightly lowered his eyes. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Gu Nuan noticed his gaze, looked up, and said softly, "Put me down."

He immediately realized she was provoking him to speak.

So he acted as if he were going to place her on the ground, and opposite, Zhuang Haoxiong seemed quite surprised that he would follow orders so obediently, saying, "Smart one, tell me, who are you?"

It seemed that Zhuang Haoxiong didn’t recognize the man before him?

With Neo wearing a mask, if one didn’t look into his eyes carefully or wasn’t very familiar with him, they wouldn’t be able to recognize the person without seeing the entire face beneath the mask.

Gu Nuan felt a trace of inexplicable tension as Zhuang Haoxiong suddenly tilted his head as if he had noticed Neo’s eyes. Thus, Zhuang Haoxiong bent down slightly, seemingly trying to see Neo’s appearance clearly.

"Have we perhaps met before?" Zhuang Haoxiong’s slightly furrowed brow suggested he recalled something, "Right, you’re someone of the Duchess’s, you follow the orders of the Duchess. However, now, the Duchess has ceded her position to me. From this moment on, you are mine, and you will follow my orders. So, are you following my orders now?"
