Rebirth: What to do if you fall into a wolf's den
Chapter 185 Su Su's Plan
After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became more harmonious and the topic gradually became relaxed and in-depth.
Lu Nanxu suddenly broke the silence, a hint of seriousness flashed in his eyes: "A Jing, how is the progress of the express delivery incident you mentioned earlier?"
Upon hearing this, Xin Mujing gently put down the wine glass in his hand, his eyes moved between the two people, and finally fixed on Lu Nanxu's face, and slowly said: "There are some clues. The information sent to the Xin family was indeed sent by Yang Yunxi."
"Yang Yunxi?" Fu Jingyan and Lu Nanxu blurted out almost at the same time, with surprise and confusion written all over their faces.
After a brief silence, Fu Jingyan asked first: "How did you find out? Do you have any clues?"
Xin Mujing nodded, his eyes gleaming with thought.
"In fact, this is not too difficult to guess. Looking back on the time when I broke off the engagement with the Yang family, Yang Yunxi's attitude was extremely firm, almost to the point of being unreasonable.
I guess she had already become suspicious of me at that time and started investigating everything about me.
As for why Yanyan was involved in the information, I think she may have accidentally discovered our relationship during the investigation."
After hearing this, Lu Nanxu clenched his fists, his face full of indignation. "This Yang Yunxi is so sinister! If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have encountered so much trouble for no reason!"
He turned to look at Xin Mujing, his eyes full of expectation: "Have you taken any action? You can't just let it go!"
Xin Mujing smiled slightly, and in that smile there was both relief for the past and determination for the future.
"Of course I won't let her go. Since she dared to do such a thing, she must bear the corresponding consequences. I have made the Yang family pay the price they deserved."
"Price? What price?" Lu Nanxu asked impatiently.
Xin Mujing took a sip of wine, with a barely perceptible chill in his tone.
"I bankrupted the Yang family. For her, this may be just a huge blow, but for me, this is what she deserves."
When saying this, Xin Mujing's expression was unusually calm, as if the Yang family was really just as he said, an insignificant ant that could be killed with a slight pinch.
Seeing this, Fu Jingyan frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a bit of worry.
"Ah Jing, I always trust you to do things, but I still want to remind you that the world is dangerous and you need to be cautious. Although the Yang family has declined, the world is unpredictable and you must not be careless."
Xin Mujing gently patted the back of Fu Jingyan's hand to show his gratitude.
"Ayan, I have taken note of your reminder. But please believe me, I know my limits. The matter of the Yang family was just a stumbling block in my life. Now that it has been cleared, we can move on."
After that, the three of them smiled at each other and raised their glasses again. Amid the aroma of wine, they continued to talk about their futures and dreams, as if all the grudges and hatreds were gone with the wine in the glass.
……
In a luxuriously decorated and secretive box, Fu Jingyan, Lu Nanxu and Xin Mujing sat together, enjoying their rare leisure time.
The aroma of wine filled the air, light and shadows intertwined, and their laughter and conversations intertwined into a warm and mysterious background music.
However, beyond this tranquility and harmony, an unknown conspiracy is quietly brewing.
At the same time, deep in the bar, at the end of a dim corridor, the conversation between Su Su and the bartender A Qiang was like a whisper in the night, full of tension and secrecy.
Su Su, a woman wearing a well-tailored suit and with a stern face, was laying out her plan to A Qiang in an unquestionable tone.
"Listen, Aqiang," Su Su's voice was low and powerful. Her fingers gently slid across the photo. In the photo, Xin Mujing was smiling and raising a glass with his friends.
"I need you to do me a favor. When you go in to deliver the wine later, make sure you keep a close eye on this man."
She paused and took out a delicate vial from her bag. The liquid inside looked clear and mysterious under the dim light. "Then, find a way to put this into his wine glass quietly."
Upon hearing this, Aqiang's face turned pale instantly, and his eyes revealed deep fear and hesitation.
He knew very well that the person in the box was an extraordinary person, and any small mistake could bring him disaster.
"This...this won't do. What if I get discovered, I..." His voice trembled and he shook his head repeatedly, as if he had already foreseen the consequences he might face.
However, Su Su did not back down. She sneered, as if she had seen through Aqiang's thoughts. She took out a check from her handbag, gently placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Aqiang.
"Two hundred thousand, this is just the beginning. After the job is done, I will give you another generous reward. As long as you do it cleanly, no one will know about it."
Her tone contained an alluring promise, mixed with a pressure that could not be refused.
A Qiang's eyes widened instantly. The number on the check was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for him, enough to change his current difficult living conditions.
His heart beat faster, his fingers trembled slightly, and the balance in his heart swung violently between fear and greed.
In the end, greed prevailed, he stretched out his trembling hand, took the check, and nodded.
"Okay...ok, I'll do my best."
"Remember," Su Su warned again, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, "Be careful not to attract anyone's attention.
Your future is in your own hands." After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Aqiang standing there alone with a complicated expression on his face.
A Qiang took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement.
He knew that he had embarked on a path from which there was no turning back, but the greed in his heart prevented him from stopping.
He turned and walked towards the box, each step seeming particularly heavy.
In the box, Fu Jingyan, Lu Nanxu and Xin Mujing were still laughing and chatting happily, but underneath this joy, an unknown undercurrent was quietly surging, waiting for the coming storm.
