Chapter 374: Sun Zhiqing Lures the Wolf Into the House

The angry smile on Xiao Li Zi's face looked especially twisted in the dim yellow light.

He took a deep breath, as if trying to calm the turmoil in his heart, but the vindictiveness flashing in his eyes could not be hidden no matter what.

"Lin Dongfan, must our grudge really continue like this?" After holding back and holding back, he still couldn't come up with a perfect counterattack; Xiao Li Zi once again tried to reconcile.

Lin Dongfan would definitely not give him that chance.

Lin Dongfan flicked ash from his cigarette, his eyes full of contempt: "A grudge? You're not worthy. I'm just doing my duty, while you're merely reaping what you sow."

"Don't think that having power and influence now lets you do as you please. In this world, no one is an eternal winner, nor an eternal loser. We'll see!"

Xiao Li Zi dropped those harsh words, turned and left.

Lin Dongfan laughed and called out: "I have something I want to say to you. Do you want to hear it?"

"Just spit it out."

When he stopped and turned back, Xiao Li Zi's eyes were again filled with a hint of anticipation.

He thought there was still room for reconciliation.

Unexpectedly, what Lin Dongfan let out was actually a cold joke: "Within three months, I'll send you to prison. Get ready mentally."

These words undoubtedly pronounced Xiao Li Zi's fate.

They caused Xiao Li Zi's face to change abruptly.

He glared fiercely at Lin Dongfan, snorted coldly, and hurriedly left the night snack shop.

Watching Xiao Li Zi's retreating back, Lin Dongfan's mood became extremely relieved. What is death by a thousand cuts? Lingchi means slicing bit by bit, causing a person to die slowly in pain.

"Husband, aren't you afraid he'll flee if you speak to him so openly?" Chu Lingxi looked at Lin Dongfan in surprise.

Lin Dongfan chuckled dismissively: "Where could he escape to? The Anti-Corruption Bureau watches him day and night."

"Given his character, if he can't escape, he'll surely retaliate against you." Chu Lingxi warned Lin Dongfan anxiously: "When you go out, bring bodyguards."

Lin Dongfan gently took Chu Lingxi's hand and smiled tenderly: "He's just a petty clown. Don't worry—for you and Choubao, I will definitely survive tenaciously."

Hearing that, Chu Lingxi's heart warmed, and she looked at Lin Dongfan with a smiling expression.

Her eyes were full of silly joy.

A hint of a contented smile outweighs a thousand words.

Two months later.

Lin Dongfan received a mysterious overseas call.

The voice on the other end was low and hoarse: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm G Xiansheng. Are you interested in making a deal with me?"

G Xiansheng?

The political fixer G Xiansheng who once helped Yin Qiuhong escape?

This mysterious figure who moves between political and business circles!

This immediately piqued Lin Dongfan's interest; he probed: "What kind of deal do you want to make with me? Tell me."

G Xiansheng replied: "Li Hengbo was also a politician originally; he resigned his public office to avoid your sharp edge. Later he wanted to make a big splash in the film and television investment sector, but was covertly blacklisted by the entire industry, leaving him unable to move forward. Mr. Lin, you have extraordinary influence—why bother with someone like him? Can you give him a way out?"

"Tell me, why should I give him a way out?"

"There aren't that many whys in this world; we talk business—you can name your price."

"I'm not short of money."

"Heh, I know you're not short of money. Do me a favor—consider it a debt I owe you. More friends, more paths; maybe I can help you someday."

"I've never even met you; I don't know who you are, so how can I do you this favor?"

Lin Dongfan had long wanted to see the true face of this G Xiansheng.

Taking this opportunity,

Lin Dongfan went with the flow and proposed his request: "Let's set a place to meet first. If you're worth my favor, everything can be negotiated."

"I'd like to meet you, but I'm currently overseas and really can't get away." G Xiansheng's words carried a hint of helplessness, yet his tone was light, as if tinged with a smile.

"Then we'll talk when you can free up."

Lin Dongfan hung up after saying that, decisively and cleanly.

Without a doubt, as agreed, Li Hengbo was to be sent to prison within three months; now there's still one month left, so Li Hengbo must be anxious, which is why he sought G Xiansheng's help.

In this matter, Lin Dongfan has no reason to be anxious.

Now the truly anxious one is Li Hengbo.

If G Xiansheng takes on Li Hengbo's business, he'll have to call back later.

He wants to scoop someone up without even showing his face?

What a joke!

Right now, Lin Dongfan also doesn't have much time to waste on Li Hengbo.

In Lin Dongfan's eyes, Xiao Li Zi is merely an insignificant little shrimp; even if he grew wings this time, he couldn't fly away—he'll definitely spend New Year's Eve in prison this year.

Right now, the real big fish is Zou Feiyun; after laying out his plans for so long, the season to cast the net has arrived.

Yesterday, Sun Zhiqing had already completed divorce procedures with Zou Feiyun. According to the prior agreement, Sun Zhiqing should today voluntarily turn herself in and hand over the accounts of the film and television company.

By sometime past three in the afternoon, that little vixen Sun Zhiqing still hadn't come to turn herself in.

Lin Dongfan took out his phone and sent her a message: "You got lost, right? Hurry up and turn yourself in, or don't force me to mobilize a manhunt to find you."

"I'm at the Green Fruit Club; come over."

Sun Zhiqing replied quickly, her text followed by a tearful emoticon; who knows what trick she's trying to pull now.

Lin Dongfan replied: "No time to play; hurry back to turn yourself in and bring the accounts."

"The doctor said I have an ectopic pregnancy; I suddenly feel life is pointless." After the text came Along string of tearful emoticons.

This horrifying message content made Lin Dongfan's scalp go numb.

Is she thinking of suicide?

Lin Dongfan hurriedly called the two bodyguards responsible for "protecting" Sun Zhiqing, asking about Sun Zhiqing's current situation; the more he asked, the more depressed he became.

The bodyguard said Sun Zhiqing had locked herself inside the room and refused to come out.

And threatened them.

If they broke down the door, she would commit suicide; she was extremely agitated.

Helpless, Lin Dongfan hastily drove to the Green Fruit Club; as soon as he saw the two bodyguards, he asked: "Is she still inside, not coming out?"

"She hasn't come out."

The two bodyguards had been guarding the door, not stepping away.

Lin Dongfan frantically knocked on the door: "Sun Zhiqing, don't do something stupid, come out quickly!" Just as he finished speaking, the door opened, and a hand like lightning pulled Lin Dongfan into the room.

Before the two bodyguards could peek inside the room, the door slammed shut with a bang, locked tight.

But they didn't know.

All that Sun Zhiqing did was merely to lure the wolf into the house.

After pulling Lin Dongfan into the room, without giving him time to understand the situation, the next second she fiercely wrapped her arms around his neck and lunged to kiss him.

Lin Dongfan instinctively pushed her away: "Aren't you having an ectopic pregnancy?"

"You're the one with the ectopic pregnancy."

Sun Zhiqing reached out and hugged him, wanting to kiss him again.

Lin Dongfan pushed her away again: "Are you sick? Show some restraint."

"I'm about to go to jail; who am I being restrained for?"

Before Lin Dongfan could rebut, Sun Zhiqing already used her mouth to block his mouth.

This extremely aggressive, terrifying passion instantly drowned Lin Dongfan's reason, leaving him powerless to resist.

One is obsessed with finding loopholes, the other with obsessing over petty details.
