Chapter 166: Cooperation

~7 min read 1,373 words

Third Brother smiled at me and said, "It's nothing, I was just asking!"

Regarding Third Brother's sudden remark, I had a bad premonition in my heart. I didn't know what exactly he was asking about—was it just about Sister Shuang saving me, or something else? Moreover, looking at Third Brother's expression just now, I suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

However, I figured it might just be that there had been too many things happening these past two days, causing Third Brother to be tense.

At the Liu residence, Liu Zhenxing’s face was gloomy. A subordinate beside him said with unwillingness, "Master, what should we do now? Should we go and capture Yang Yun again?"

"Are you looking for death? If you want to die, don't drag me into it. Going to capture Yang Yun now, isn't that clearly showing that I want to go against Bai Yueshuang?" Liu Zhenxing shouted angrily at the subordinate.

"Are we just going to let Yang Yun go so easily? Even if this matter wasn't done by Yang Yun, it at least has something to do with him. Otherwise, why would Young Master Liu have been killed for no reason!"

"Do you think I don't want to capture him? But we really can't right now. Besides, I, Liu Zhenxing, am not a fool; I naturally won't be used as a gun by others like that!"

Just at this moment, someone rushed in hurriedly. Seeing this person, Liu Zhenxing immediately asked, "How is it? Have you investigated the matter clearly?"

The person who arrived panted and looked at Liu Zhenxing, saying, "It's all been investigated. The incident that day was indeed related to the Li family. At the time, Young Master Liu wanted to seek revenge on Yang Yun and had previously sought out Wang Peng's subordinates, but since Yang Yun and his group had practiced Wu Gong, they couldn't be taken down. Then, Li Hong of the Li family found Young Master Liu and gave him a few experts. Afterward, Young Master Liu died, and those Li family experts also disappeared. If nothing unexpected happened, they are most likely dead too!"

Hearing the words of the person before him, Liu Zhenxing frowned: "What? Those people are dead too? If this matter was really done by the Li family, then this Li Hong is truly ruthless and thorough. Such a person is really not to be trifled with!"

"Master, the Li family has many experts now, and it is said they have dealings with people from the R country. If we go head-to-head with the Li family now, we will suffer a great loss!"

Liu Zhenxing paced back and forth, carefully thinking of a countermeasure, and then said, "Do not make a move for now. Have people probe for movements. I want to see exactly what is going on with this matter. If it really was done by the Li family, although our Liu family is only a second-rate family, we aren't something anyone can just pinch. Besides, the Li family is being watched from all sides now; they certainly wouldn't dare to act as openly as before!"

Hearing Liu Zhenxing's words, everyone nodded quickly and hurried out to probe for information.

About half an hour later, Liu Zhenxing received news again, and this news caused Liu Zhenxing to be shaken to his core.

Because they had obtained information on the three experts the Li family had sent to Liu Hong. Two of them were already dead, and the third was currently in a dying state. It was clear that they had been hiding and dodging these past few days before being found by the Liu family. Liu Zhenxing hurried to his private clinic and, looking at the person lying on the bed in a dying state, suddenly shouted angrily, "Are you here to let me look at a dead man?"

"Master, don't be angry, he still has breath, he still has breath!" The people below said, terrified.

Liu Zhenxing looked at the person on the bed, who was clearly at the end of his rope, just barely hanging on to a single breath. But that was enough. Liu Zhenxing took a photo and placed it in front of the person on the bed, saying to him, "I will take care of your family, as long as you tell me the circumstances of my son's death?"

The person on the bed saw the photo in Liu Zhenxing's hand, his expression agitated, and he nodded quickly. Liu Zhenxing also knew that the other party couldn't speak at this moment, so he asked, "I know you can't speak now. You just need to nod or shake your head. I will ask, and you answer!"

The other party nodded weakly. Seeing this, Liu Zhenxing asked, "Was my son's death that day the work of the Li family?"

The other party nodded. Seeing this with his own eyes, Liu Zhenxing felt immense anger in his heart. He had almost been used by the Li family and played for a fool.

Immediately after, Liu Zhenxing asked again, "Was it done by that guy Li Hong?"

The other party nodded again. Then, Liu Zhenxing asked one last question: "The last question, was my son killed by the three of you at that time?"

The other party did not answer the question this time but froze. It seemed he really didn't want to answer this question because he wasn't a fool; he knew that if he really answered, Liu Zhenxing might not let the three of them go. Although they were already as good as dead, their families would likely be implicated!

Seeing the other party's reaction, Liu Zhenxing roughly knew the answer. He said to the person before him, "Alright, I know. You don't need to worry; I am not that kind of person like the Li family. But as for me helping you take care of your family, I'm sorry. My son died at your hands; although it wasn't your original intention, you did it after all, so forgive me for not being able to do that!"

Hearing Liu Zhenxing's words, the other party's expression was painful, but there was also a trace of relief. The machine beside them suddenly started to sound at this moment. The nurse beside them saw this and quickly said, "His blood pressure and vital signs have all disappeared!"

Seeing this, Liu Zhenxing said to the people beside him, "Let his family come to collect his body!"

Then, Liu Zhenxing walked out of the hospital. Looking at the Li family's company not far away, his eyes flashed with hatred as he muttered, "Li family, do you really think my Liu family is that easy to pinch? Since you dared to do it, I won't let you have it easy either!"

"Master, are we really going to make a move against the Li family? Although the Li family is being watched by many people now, no one truly dares to make a move against them. If we deal with the Li family so rashly, we will likely become cannon fodder!" The subordinate beside him bitterly tried to persuade Liu Zhenxing.

Liu Zhenxing snorted coldly and said, "Who says there is no one who dares to make a move against the Li family? Yang Yun dares!"

"Yang Yun is just a person with no background or family status. He doesn't have so many burdens behind him. To put it bluntly, he is a newborn calf that isn't afraid of tigers. But Master is different; Master has the entire Liu family. Once a move is made, the entire Liu family will suffer along with it!"

"Oh? Listening to you, does everything in the Liu family have to be listened to by you?" Liu Zhenxing's face turned livid, his eyes revealing ferocity. It was clear he was very dissatisfied with the person beside him.

"This subordinate wouldn't dare; I am also thinking for the sake of the Liu family!" This subordinate of Liu Zhenxing was so scared that he knelt directly on the ground. He saw the fierce light in Liu Zhenxing's eyes and knew that what he said was a bit rash, so he quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.
