Chapter 358: Dragon Soul's Inquiry
Suddenly, a crisp doorbell rang.
Lin Feng wrapped a bath towel around himself and went to open the door, only to see that the person standing outside was none other than Yang Lili.
"I've come to bring you breakfast! Surprised? Unexpected?" Yang Lili said with a smile, holding a large bag of soup dumplings and pan-fried buns.
"Xiaolin is here too," Lin Feng said.
"I knew that dead girl was here with you. Don't worry, I brought a portion for her too," Yang Lili said, while also glancing at Chen Yilin, who was in the middle of getting dressed.
Chen Yilin's already flushed cheeks turned even redder.
It had to be said that the breakfast Yang Lili had carefully prepared was indeed very good; both the soup dumplings and the pan-fried buns were delicious.
Yang Lili asked while eating, "Lin Feng, are you going out? Where are you planning to go?"
Before Lin Feng could answer, Chen Yilin had already said, "I'm going to the Dragon Soul Branch with Brother Lin; he said he's going there to take care of some business."
"Lin Feng is going to Dragon Soul for business, why are you tagging along?" Yang Lili asked suspiciously.
Chen Yilin said somewhat embarrassedly, "I've never been to Dragon Soul, so I wanted to broaden my horizons..."
"I've never been either, I want to broaden my horizons too!"
Yang Lili shouted, and she also tightly hugged Lin Feng's arm.
Lin Feng had no choice but to say, "You can both go, you two come with me."
Only then did Yang Lili finally beam with joy.
So, after finishing breakfast, Lin Feng went downstairs with Yang Lili and Chen Yilin.
The Dragon Soul Branch building was not far from the Furenju Hotel, so Lin Feng walked there with the two women.
But Yang Lili and Chen Yilin acted as if they were competing; Yang Lili tightly hugged Lin Feng's left arm, while Chen Yilin tightly held onto Lin Feng's right arm. The two beautiful young women stuck to Lin Feng firmly, as if they were all glued together by a sticky mouse trap.
"Can you two act normally? How am I supposed to walk like this?" Lin Feng said with displeasure.
Chen Yilin felt very embarrassed, but she couldn't bear to let go of Lin Feng's arm, and since Chen Yilin didn't let go, Yang Lili naturally wouldn't let go either.
This scene was naturally seen by the passersby coming and going.
Those passersby all cast looks of astonishment at Lin Feng, especially the single men, who were all jealous to death!
"Holy crap, is it really okay to two-time so blatantly?"
"How did that brat manage it? Could it be the power of money!"
"Damn, we're all human, why is the gap so big..."
"If only I could..."
Lin Feng heard all the discussions from the people around him, so he gave a forceful push, and only then did he finally push Yang Lili and Chen Yilin away.
"You still need to be mindful when you're outside," Lin Feng said with a straight face.
Chen Yilin nodded with a red face, while Yang Lili said with a cheeky grin, "Are you shy, Lin Feng?"
Lin Feng then slapped Yang Lili on her perky buttocks, causing her to jump three feet high while clutching her rear.
They finally arrived at the Dragon Soul Branch.
The two Divine Dragon Guards guarding the entrance immediately stood at attention the moment they saw Lin Feng, and they even placed their hands over their chests and bowed slightly to salute him.
Although Chen Yilin and Yang Lili had been joking and messing around with Lin Feng without any seriousness on the way there, now that they had arrived at Dragon Soul, they immediately restrained themselves, following behind Lin Feng like two handmaidens, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Lin Feng said indifferently, "Is Luo Sitong here?"
One of the Divine Dragon Guards said respectfully, "Reporting to the War King, General Captain Luo is inside."
"Mm, that's good."
Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction and walked into the Dragon Soul Branch building with Chen Yilin and Yang Lili in tow.
Yang Lili whispered with emotion, "Don't you even need something like an ID card? You just walk in whenever you want, Lin Feng?"
"Nonsense, don't you know who I am?" Lin Feng said irritably.
Chen Yilin asked curiously, "Sister Lili, your father is the Binhai City City Head. Could it be that even with your status, you can't enter the Dragon Soul Branch building?"
"Even though my father is the City Head, the City Head is nothing in front of Dragon Soul. Let alone me, even my father can't get in if he wants to," Yang Lili said huffily.
"Isn't it a bit bad for you to talk about your father like that, Sister Lili?" Chen Yilin laughed.
"I'm just telling the truth, he can't hear me anyway," Yang Lili muttered.
Lin Feng coughed twice, and the two girls immediately fell silent, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.
Just then, Luo Sitong, the General Captain of the Binhai City Dragon Soul Branch, came down from upstairs. He walked up to Lin Feng respectfully, bowed, and finally said, "Mr. Lin, you're here to see that female assassin, right?"
"Mm, I do have some questions I want to ask her," Lin Feng said.
Luo Sitong smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, you could have just asked me. I interrogated her after I captured her and brought her here last night, and she has already confessed everything."
"There was someone behind her pulling the strings, right?" Lin Feng asked.
"Indeed, Mr. Lin, your foresight is truly divine!" Luo Sitong gave a thumbs up in admiration.
What kind of divine foresight was this?
Lin Feng had no grudge against that female assassin and had never even met her before, yet she suddenly tried to assassinate him. If there wasn't someone behind it, what else could it be?
Who wouldn't understand such a simple logic? Luo Sitong was just buttering him up.
"Who is the mastermind?" Lin Feng asked.
"The eldest young master of the Zhou Family, Zhou Tong!" Luo Sitong said without hesitation.
Lin Feng's brows immediately furrowed tightly.
Although Lin Feng and Zhou Tong had had very unpleasant run-ins, Lin Feng had no intention of killing Zhou Tong. In Lin Feng's eyes, this guy was just a good-for-nothing young master.
But for this guy to actually go as far as hiring a killer, he could no longer let him off!
"I'll leave Zhou Tong to you to handle. Get this done as soon as possible," Lin Feng said.
"Yes, Mr. Lin."
Luo Sitong said without hesitation.
"Has the identity of that female assassin been investigated clearly?" Lin Feng asked again.
Luo Sitong immediately said: "It has been investigated clearly. That female assassin's name is Li Xueyan. She only became a Martial Artist by a stroke of luck. After possessing Martial Dao strength, she often did jobs like catching people in adultery or finding people to earn money."
"Because she is a Martial Artist, doing these things is simple for her, and her reputation has become bigger and bigger. People gave her a nickname—Leng Yan."
"Li Xueyan's younger sister, Li Lingshan, just turned eighteen this year. Her lower limbs are paralyzed, and she seems to have other illnesses; in any case, she is extremely weak. Li Xueyan works desperately to earn money just to treat her. And the reason she agreed to Zhou Tong to help him assassinate you is because Zhou Tong promised to cure her younger sister Li Lingshan's illness."
Yang Lili immediately said: "Lin Feng, look, I said that female assassin had hidden hardships, but you just wouldn't believe it. Now you should finally believe it, right?"
