Chapter 1815: A Risky Plan

The moment he saw the message, Xie Wanyi felt a weight lift from his heart.

Afterward, he said a word to Jiang Motian and then went to the Hospital.

As it turned out, the moment Xie Wanyi pushed open the door to the ward, he heard the person inside say: "You bastard!"

The voice of the person cursing was light and airy, and also very hoarse.

Yet it was one Xie Wanyi was familiar with.

Xie Wanyi was not angry; he smiled and sat down beside Ling Yu: "You, you're finally able to speak."

Ling Yu's injuries were very severe.

These past few days, he had been in a constant state of semi-consciousness.

And because he had a tube inserted in his throat, he had been unable to speak at all.

Now, he could breathe on his own, and his physical strength had recovered quite a bit.

Ling Yu was finally able to give this bastard a good scolding!

As for the reason for the scolding...

Not only had Xie Wanyi failed to get him the nurse's phone number, but he had actually had the nurse transferred away!

The days of recuperating were so boring.

He had been relying on looking at beauties to pass the time.

But look at what happened: the new nurses who were brought in were one sturdier than the last, and one fiercer than the last.

Ling Yu had been so scared he'd had nightmares!

Now that he had the chance, he had to curse him out!

However...

When Ling Yu opened his mouth, he spoke of urgent matters first: "I suspect it was Li Shu who made a move on me."

Upon hearing this, the expression on Xie Wanyi's face did not fluctuate at all.

This made Ling Yu say involuntarily: "It seems you already knew."

"I only guessed, but I needed you to verify it."

"How do you want to verify it?"

"I think the mercenaries who attacked you are the breakthrough point; try to recall the details regarding that."

Ling Yu was a bit excited when he heard this.

He said: "We really thought of the same thing! These past few days, when I had nothing to do, I thought about the details carefully and discovered that those mercenaries were exceptionally familiar with my style!"

"Does this mean they had studied you?"

"Yes! And there are some things that only people inside the Organization know, which means someone betrayed me!"

"And then you suspect that this insider is Li Shu?"

"Mm, Li Shu has a special team under him that no one has ever seen, and their capabilities are terrifying. Combining these two things, the real culprit can only be Li Shu."

After listening, Xie Wanyi was silent for a moment, then asked another question: "But why would he want to silence you?"

"For that, I have to talk about what I did for the West Hall Master."

"What was it?"

Ling Yu glanced at Xie Wanyi leisurely, then asked nonchalantly: "Do you really want to know? Be careful, or you might be silenced too!"

Seeing his devil-may-care attitude, Xie Wanyi reminded him: "Get to the point, or you'll pass out again in a moment."

"I've recovered a lot, don't look down on me!"

To show his spirit, Ling Yu spoke in a slightly loud voice, and his body unconsciously exerted force.

The result of exerting force like that was...

Ling Yu began to breathe rapidly.

After calming down for a long time, he returned to normal.

And this little interlude made Ling Yu feel a bit embarrassed.

He coughed lightly and got back to the main topic: "A company wanted to double-cross others, and the evidence was held by the West Hall Master. I took the evidence to make a deal with this company."

"Isn't that just a normal mission? What's the problem?"

"Of course there's a problem. The company that swallowed the dirty money is one of Li Shu's businesses. And the information I sold was fake."

Hearing this, Xie Wanyi understood everything in an instant.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and summarized: "Li Shu protected his own company and also used you as a scapegoat to push out."

"That's right, that's exactly it. It's fortunate I kept an ace up my sleeve and secretly investigated this company, otherwise I wouldn't even know how I died!"

In their line of work, one must be cautious and careful.

Over the years, Ling Yu had always upheld this principle, which was why he had walked on thin ice and made it to today.

Yet, one moment of carelessness and he had almost lost his life.

Sigh!

Ling Yu sighed with emotion.

Xie Wanyi, however, knitted his brows and asked: "Why didn't you tell me at the time?"

"I couldn't be bothered to talk about such messy business."

Ling Yu's demeanor was light and breezy.

But from this, it was evident that he must have endured many similar things on his own.

This made Xie Wanyi feel a sense of melancholy.

Ling Yu was also feeling melancholy.

He sighed: "It's a pity that no matter how logical our analysis is, it's useless; the evidence has already been destroyed by Li Shu."

"We don't want to bring him to justice, so why would we need evidence? It's better to just make him pay the price directly."

"Hey, that's easy to say, but Li Shu didn't get to where he is today by having an empty reputation."

"But I'm not someone to be trifled with either."

Judging by what this guy meant, had he already made preparations in secret?

Ling Yu looked over at him suspiciously.

Xie Wanyi gave him some reassurance:

"During this time, I have also been investigating Li Shu and discovered that he is recently trying to go all-in on a big deal to turn things around. As long as I secretly destroy his goods, he will lose everything!"

"A big deal? You don't mean... that batch of arms, do you?"

Li Shu had many shady businesses that couldn't see the light of day.

And these were all things Xie Wanyi found out after falling out with Li Shu.

At this moment, he used silence to confirm Ling Yu's guess.

Ling Yu's expression changed: "You are too bold; this is not an easy thing to pull off!"

"You don't need to worry about that; I have already planned it out in secret, just waiting for the right moment."

Xie Wanyi's tone was calm and his demeanor composed, as if the whole situation were already under his control.

Ling Yu's brows were furrowed, and after a moment of silence, he asked: "Will you be in danger?"

"If I said no, would you believe me?"

"No."

Xie Wanyi smiled and said: "So let's not talk about this topic, lest we deceive ourselves."

Ling Yu sighed and then muttered: "Deceiving oneself is quite nice too; at the very least, there is some hope in one's heart."

"Hey, do you have so little confidence in me? You'd rather deceive yourself than believe in me?"

Ling Yu also wanted to believe in Xie Wanyi.

But...

He looked at Xie Wanyi with a serious face and said: "Don't think I don't know that the buyer of that batch of arms is the Sig Family!"

The people in this family were notoriously brutal and greedy.

If they were to get hold of any leverage...

The outcome would be foreseeably miserable!

But Xie Wanyi was not worried at all; he countered: "Have you forgotten that Li Shu has a history of double-crossing?"

Ling Yu had originally been feeling anxious.

Upon hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "You want to use a borrowed knife to kill!"

Xie Wanyi smiled, once again tacitly confirming Ling Yu's guess.

And this time, Ling Yu was silent for a long while.

When he spoke again, his tone had become significantly more relaxed: "If this can really be done, then Li Shu will definitely be hunted down! It's perfect, let him taste what it's like to be a fugitive!"

Ling Yu and the others had been controlled by Li Shu for so many years.

Now, they finally had a chance to vent their anger.

He couldn't wait to see Li Shu in such a pathetic state!

But Xie Wanyi said, "A fugitive? I don't intend to give him that chance."

"What do you mean? Oh, you want to silence him?"
