Chapter 1934: The Bard won't take carrot or stick

After all, Zhang Lin's time at the Crescent Moon Restaurant was limited, and if later on they faced many situations on their own with no way to cope, they couldn't blame Zhang Lin.

Precisely because she saw through this situation clearly, Yang Lu did not let down her vigilance at this moment; she looked at this Ake with a scrutinizing gaze.

Ake rolled the prayer beads in his hand, then shook his head and sighed, saying: "First tell me, why do you want to go to that place?"

A smile appeared at the corner of Yang Lu's mouth as she explained: "Mr. Ake, do you know where we come from and what we represent?"

Hearing these words, Ake opened his eyes again and glanced at Xue Long.

He then replied: "He already told me about this before. You represent the official side, here for archaeology, right?"

Hearing this, Yang Lu nodded, then she glanced at Xue Long, no emotion showing in her eyes.

But at this moment Xue Long still believed in his heart that the other party must be praising him in this way, and this wasn't Xue Long being overly sentimental—after all, for him right now the situation was the most urgent matter.

Xue Long would rather follow the Second Archaeology Team, braving countless dangers and difficulties among the tombs—at the very least he could win Zhang Lin's trust in this way. Besides, the loyalty he now carried was absolutely one hundred percent.

Actually, even taking a step back—if Xue Long had no reason to betray Wang Canghai and still stood on his side, and it was only because of his own strength, then Zhang Lin would definitely cast him aside directly after using him up.

But since Zhang Lin already knew what kind of person Wang Canghai was, and the way he controlled people was still through this kind of coercion, as well as the earlier Jack Raymond and others, Zhang Lin was very clear that Wang Canghai must have controlled their families.

Under these many premises, even Xue Long's betrayal of Wang Canghai was directly connected to the families of his former brothers—after all, some of the dirty work Wang Canghai had to hand over to him to do.

After Xue Long had done those things a few times, he never wanted to continue doing them. If it were a case that didn't concern him, and his relationship with them wasn't that good, he would at worst obey Wang Canghai's orders and truly take things to that extreme.

But the current situation was completely different—after all, Xue Long's relationship with them was all very good, since they had once been brothers who risked their lives for each other.

It was absolutely impossible for Xue Long to target their families, which was also why Wang Canghai still couldn't figure out the fundamental reason for Xue Long's betrayal of him.

Wang Canghai later firmly believed that the other party's betrayal was only because he saw that Zhang Lin might be more powerful and grasp more things than himself, which was also why Xue Long, after taking the Corpse Beetle Pill, still chose to betray without any scruple.
