Chapter 2961: A lackey

~7 min read 1,264 words

Although Wang Canghai thought this way, he did not believe that at this point in time he would be betrayed by so many people; this was also the primary reason for his subsequent mental imbalance.

Zhang Lin nodded subconsciously on his end, then asked, "What did he say?"

Wu Ya couldn't help but be stunned. She had originally thought Zhang Lin would ask if she was certain about this point, or exactly what method the other party used to make her believe it. She hadn't expected Zhang Lin to ask what the other party had said.

Wu Ya couldn't help but mutter to herself: Could it be that Mr. Zhang had already determined the situation from what she just said, or had Zhang Lin combined this with the things he had encountered previously to determine how to make a choice in the current situation?

This couldn't be blamed on Wu Ya's wild imagination; sometimes she also tried to analyze the logic behind Zhang Lin's subsequent actions—this was an instinct as an assistant.

She didn't want to prove her own ability through this; rather, she felt the need to help Zhang Lin solve certain problems in most situations.

This was the fundamental reason for Wu Ya making such a choice.

But just two seconds later, Wu Ya suddenly realized that her current thoughts were meaningless; the key was to quickly answer Zhang Lin, so she told Zhang Lin everything the other party had said.

When Zhang Lin heard the three words "King Wannu," he couldn't help but frown slightly, then said, "Give me that contact information."

Wu Ya hurriedly agreed, and after she finished reciting the contact information, Zhang Lin hung up the phone on his end.

She had originally wanted to ask Zhang Lin what to do next, but now it seemed the other party had no intention of arranging a subsequent plan for her.

And Wu Ya did not call back; she believed that as long as this matter was important enough, Zhang Lin would absolutely not overlook it.

That meant the following orders were no different from before: continue to move forward at the existing pace. Perhaps after Fatty cleared the poison from his body, they would naturally find the corresponding way out.

Therefore, Wu Ya did not worry about this matter anymore.

After getting the number, Zhang Lin dialed Mr. Wang without hesitation.

The phone rang once and was answered on the other end. Because Mr. Wang had Zhang Lin's contact information and was obsessively hoping the other party would call back quickly, he naturally appeared impatient at this moment.

Furthermore, Mr. Wang didn't even need to put on any disguise; he believed that with Zhang Lin's intelligence, he would definitely be able to guess what had happened from beginning to end at the first moment.

As well as why he had made such an extreme choice. Mr. Wang was not unaware of the logic that Wang Canghai recognized.

His current situation was very awkward; it could be said he was caught between a rock and a hard place. To put it bluntly, he could only wait for death, whether he fought his way out or chose to truly betray Wang Canghai by selling those past secrets to the authorities or Zhang Lin.

It seemed that in the end, neither could change that result.

But precisely because he had figured this out, his attitude at this moment was so firm.

Since the matter would happen whether he did it or not, he might as well go all the way, even leaving Wang Canghai with no place to be buried. If he couldn't live, he wouldn't let others have it easy either!

This was the plan Mr. Wang held. He didn't care about others. If it were before, just by betraying Wang Canghai and seeking the authorities, he believed the authorities would definitely not have the ability to find Wang Canghai and truly do anything to him.

But it just so happened that at this time, an existence like Zhang Lin had appeared. He believed that with Zhang Lin's current abilities, dealing with Wang Canghai was basically a matter of minutes.

It was precisely because of this that Mr. Wang made such an unhesitating choice.

The call was answered, and Mr. Wang was still a bit uncertain, tentatively asking, "Is this Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Lin chuckled, "Mr. Wang, it's me."

"I didn't expect you to contact me so quickly."

Zhang Lin shook his head helplessly, then said, "You should understand. The reason I moved up my appearance was for this very matter." Zhang Lin's tone was not polite, but it wasn't aggressive either.

This actually made Mr. Wang feel somewhat at a loss. If Zhang Lin had directly threatened him with strong words, Mr. Wang would have felt relatively more comfortable.

After all, he was now completely a stray dog. If Wang Canghai had died before this and he had taken his people away from the current Wang family headquarters, Zhang Lin naturally wouldn't have the heart to haggle with him. In fact, even in the current situation, Zhang Lin didn't have the mind to haggle with the other party over anything.

The key was that Wang Canghai was unwilling to let him go. Under this premise, Mr. Wang chose to jump over the wall like a cornered dog, resulting in a mutual destruction.

At this moment, Mr. Wang was trying his best to maintain a calm state, because he knew that impulsiveness could not solve any problems. Although he wasn't afraid of Zhang Lin hearing his anxious mood, even if he did, Zhang Lin wouldn't change the decision he had made from the start because of his attitude.

Since he wanted to change Zhang Lin's mind, he had to adopt a peaceful state to discuss the following matters with Zhang Lin. After figuring this out, Mr. Wang also completely calmed down.

"Mr. Zhang, actually, you don't need to be so polite in your tone. Your being like this actually makes me feel uneasy."

At this moment, he was indeed speaking the truth, because the other party's good attitude actually left Mr. Wang confused. Even if an ordinary person couldn't hear it, Zhang Lin's attitude just now wasn't exactly very good, but it was still outside the range Mr. Wang could accept.

Perhaps having been a lackey for too long, he naturally developed such an attitude. Of course, there was another reason: this was his first direct, one-on-one communication with Zhang Lin, which was why he was so nervous.

Previously, it had always been Wang Canghai contacting the other party privately, but in most cases, it was Wang Canghai who took the initiative to perform such behavior, which Zhang Lin found very disdainful.

Moreover, even Mr. Wang understood that Wang Canghai taking the initiative to contact Zhang Lin was like delivering a flaw to his doorstep. Even if it was intentional, what kind of person was Zhang Lin?

He could see through that kind of petty trick at the first moment and then do the opposite, going to dig a pit for the other party.

Zhang Lin had already done this kind of thing until he was tireless, but so far, in his cognition, Wang Canghai probably still showed no signs of waking up.

Hearing this, Zhang Lin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "You are a bit like someone who won't move unless pulled, and retreats when beaten. Let's get straight to the point; I don't like to be long-winded."
