My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 945 He Had No Choice
Remembering the demon-like, frenzied revenge that Third Young Master Jun unleashed upon arrival, he couldn’t help but shudder, feeling a chill deep in his heart.
Having offended this man, it seemed troubles would be endless.
Yiren snorted, also understanding they had encountered a formidable enemy, and cursed the detestable Ji Family for interfering, otherwise that woman would have been dead for sure.
Remembering Third Young Master Jun’s face changing dramatically at the banquet and rushing out like a madman, her eyes grew even darker and colder.
Third Young Master Jun was her target, and although she had heard that he was not married, Ye Lu had been forcefully inserted into the picture.
"Have we retreated cleanly, without leaving any traces? I don’t want to engage in a direct conflict with the Ji Family, nor do I want Third Young Master Jun to suspect us."
"Miss, rest assured, our team is made up of retired special forces and police, and having committed crimes so many times, our methods are of a professional level, absolutely leaving no trace."
Ivanov walked in at that moment, inquiring about the situation, and Yiren reported to him what her subordinates had said.
Ivanov frowned, "Since we couldn’t eradicate them in one go, let’s not take any more action."
"But..." Yiren still couldn’t let go.
"Not even going to listen to me? Don’t forget our most important target." Ivanov’s face darkened, and Yiren dared not say anything more.
"Hmph, tonight’s banquet was a success, whetting the appetite of those families attending the auction. Now, we just need to have someone leak some rumors subtly, and they will be even more frantic. Who says rising to the top only comes through expanding business? As long as we control the weak points of these influential local families, we can use them to snatch the market and territory!" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Ivanov’s keen fox-like eyes shone with unconcealable ambition and ruthlessness.
"Father, you are the most far-sighted."
Ivanov patted her, "I know you’re very interested in Third Young Master Jun. What’s the rush? Once you become the Eldest Miss Hua, won’t there be a bunch of men fighting over you? And he will surely come pouncing too."
Yiren thought that made sense.
"But will Hua Lunxi recognize me? Seeing his attitude tonight, he seemed very vigilant and suspicious. Do you think he’s found that woman?"
"Hmph, he has no choice but to recognize you," said Ivanov with a cold smirk at the corner of his mouth, filled with cunning, "He has no choice."
...
The next day, Ling Kong went to see Third Young Master Jun at the villa.
Ye Lu had also woken up and came downstairs only to hear them discussing the events of the previous night, still unable to find any useful clues. Their opponent’s methods were very sophisticated, even wiping the blood clean from the corpses.
Ye Lu couldn’t help but feel anxious, having encountered such a formidable assassin organization targeting them.
So, were these people after her, or Ling Kong? This was a crucial question.
Now Third Young Master Jun and Ling Kong were also focusing on this point.
"Ordinarily, the assassination would target her since she was in your car. But it’s also possible it was me, given my family’s detached status and power that incite envy and greed amongst my peers. Hearing that my family had come here, many rivals are likely ready to pounce."
Ling Kong’s icy eyes revealed maturity and wisdom beyond his years.
He had anticipated the dangers of this trip to Southern Europe and would always bring plenty of bodyguards and proceed with extreme caution.
Third Young Master Jun’s brows were tightly furrowed, "Ye Lu has no enemies abroad, just an ordinary woman, how could she attract the attention of that level of organization for an assassination."
"So, the likelihood that it was targeted at me is the highest."
"No." Third Young Master Jun’s eyes were deep and shadowy, and his exceptionally handsome face took on an uncommon chill, "Perhaps the target... was me."
Ling Kong felt a chill.
