t of blood gushed out."Ah!...""I'm sorry, I got a little carried away just now. I used a bit too much force. This is my first time. Don't move around, please cooperate with me and I'll be done quickly...Hearing this, the man nodded frantically like a pounding pestle, his eyes filled with anticipation as he looked straight at Wang Lin.

Wang Lin leaned leisurely on the sofa, one leg crossed over the other, his eyes sharp and focused on the man bound tightly before him.

"Name." Wang Lin's tone was cold, devoid of any emotion.

"Ox... Ox-heart," the man stammered in reply.

"Hmm" Wang Lin frowned, his face full of suspicion. He suddenly sat up straight, his expression growing darker. "Tell me the truth! What's your name!"

Faced with Wang Lin's sudden question, the man was stunned and immediately nodded and bowed, stammering, "Really, big brother, I'm not lying to you, my name is Niu Ren, Ren of righteousness."

"What about the Shangjing City branch" Wang Lin continued to ask.

"Yes, yes." the man replied hurriedly.

"Who is the head of your department" Wang Lin's voice grew increasingly harsh.

"Li... Li Jian Guo," the man said in a low voice, barely daring to breathe.

"What He's your leader now" A flash of surprise crossed Wang Lin's eyes.

"Yes, you...you know him" Hearing Wang Lin mention Li Jian Guo's name, Niu Ren's face lit up with a look of undisguised delight. If he could connect with this person, maybe he could escape today's predicament.

However, before he could enjoy it for long, Wang Lin coldly sneered, "Don't ask what you shouldn't! Was it Hua Shao who sent you here"

"Yes, yes, yes," Niu Ren responded eagerly, like he had grabbed a life preserver. "He called me this afternoon and said someone beat him up."

"At first, I didn't quite believe it, but when I saw his face, swollen like a pig's head, I was furious and thought I had to help him vent his anger..."

"How is your relationship"

"It's alright! Mostly, his family is influential and he has a relationship with my leader and relatives, so that's how we met."

When he had free time, he would often invite me to go out and play together. Over time, we naturally became close friends.

"Is he Li Jianguo's son" Wang Lin looked doubtful, truly unable to believe that someone as steady and reliable as Li Jianguo could have raised such a mischievous child.

"No, no... You misunderstood. They are all surnamed Li, but Li Xinghua is just my nephew."

After learning about the true relationship between Li Jian Guo and Hua Shao, Wang Lin had a clear idea of how to handle this matter. However, just in case, he still cautiously asked: "Did Li Jian Guo know about your assassination attempt today"

He wasn't sure, daily tasks in Beijing were relatively few, counting up I've almost been two months since I last contacted him.

Contact him immediately and tell him to come here right away.

"Huh Have to invite him over Can't we settle this ourselves After all, disturbing his old man isn't really good, is it"

He really didn't want Li Jianguo to know about this. Although they weren't very close, he knew very well that Li Jianguo was a man of integrity and unyielding principles.

If Li Jianguo were to know about today's events, the consequences awaiting him would be incredibly dire: at best, he would face severe punishment, and at worst, he would be expelled from the association!

At the thought of these possible consequences, he was terrified, his face contorted in pleading, and he bowed repeatedly to Wang Lin in a flustered manner.

However, Wang Lin remained unmoved, his expression solemn as he said, "Since a mistake has been made, one must bear the responsibility that comes with it."

Upon hearing this, he was struck dumb as if by lightning and collapsed to the ground. With despair filling his heart, he pulled out his phone and dialed the number that filled him with dread.

After a brief recount of the entire event, there was only a "click" sound from the other end of the phone, followed by a busy signal. It was clear that the other party had hung up.

Listening to the incessant "dialing" sound in his ear, Niu Ren felt like a deflated balloon, utterly resigned. He stared blankly at the phone in his hand for a long time, without uttering a word.

In just a few gasps, he suddenly raised his head, eyes wide with rage, staring fixedly at Wang Lin as he roared out in frustration, "I refuse to accept this! If it wasn't for your surprise attack, how could I have lost"

"Naive!" Wang Lin's mouth curled up slightly, and he glanced at Niu Ren with a hint of disdain. "When it comes to life-or-death combat, do you want me to fight you openly and honestly"

Niu Ren was speechless after being refuted by Wang Lin's words. His entire face flushed red like a ripe apple, but he also understood in his heart that what Wang Lin said was true - if it weren't for him saying earlier that he could handle the situation, he might have already lost his life.

For a moment, the room fell silent. Only Zhang Meng was by the side, burying his head in his phone, occasionally making noises from watching videos.

After about half an hour, a crisp knocking sound suddenly rang out.

Wang Lin saw this and gave Zhang Meng a knowing look. The latter understood immediately, stood up, and went to answer the door.

As soon as the door opened, Zhang Meng caught sight of Li Jianguo standing outside. Without a word, he rushed towards him like a hungry tiger, and hugged him tightly, bursting into tears:

"Uncle Li! We almost couldn't see you again! You must definitely stand up for us and do justice!" Her cries were so tragic and sorrowful, as if she had suffered unimaginable injustice and hardship, making anyone who heard them feel moved and shed tears.

At this moment, Li Jianguo stood awkwardly at the door, his hands outstretched but not knowing what to do with them.

In the end, it was Wang Lin who broke the silence. Only then did Zhang Meng reluctantly let go of Li Jian Guo's arms and walk back into the room. But as he stepped inside, he couldn't help but wink mischievously at Wang Lin, a sly smile playing on his lips.

Wang Lin smiled and nodded slightly to Zhang Meng, his eyes full of approval, as if to say: "Well done!"

Zhang Meng was secretly delighted, like a flower in full bloom, radiant and dazzling. If he could, he would love to take the stage again immediately and perform.

After Zhang Meng brought Li JianGuo into the room, he stood silently beside the sofa, his head down in thought. However, a strange and indescribable lewd expression gradually appeared on his face.

At this moment, when Wang Lin saw Li JianGuo, he immediately ran towards him with small steps. His expression instantly turned pitiful and tearful.

Li JianGuo, seeing this, couldn't help but feel wary. He quickly stepped back and raised his hand to stop him.

"Stop! Let's get straight to the point and deal with this!"

Faced with this situation, Wang Lin had no choice but to reluctantly put away the carefully crafted mournful expression he had just prepared. Then, he respectfully made a gesture of "please" and politely said:

"Uncle Li, please sit down!"

Li Jian Guo let out a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and softly replied, "Hmm."

Then, he strode towards the sofa. As he walked, he couldn't help but glance back at Niu Ren, who was sitting on the ground, bound tightly with ropes and looking utterly defeated. He let out a dismissive snort before finally plopping down heavily onto the sofa in a huff. that, I feel at ease. You don't plan on charging me for this, do you""So, from now on, I'll transfer 200,000 yuan to your card every month. Consider it a token of my appreciation for your services....
