Reborn Night King

Chapter 56 The Hidden Secret With No Way Out...

In the afternoon, a handsome man was sitting in the coffee area in the corner of Yipin Dynasty Hall, leaning against the printed seat, his legs were gracefully crossed, his index finger was tapping rhythmically on the armrest of the seat, and his eyes were fixed on him. Cold coffee.

The woman sitting next to him frequently looked in the direction of this elegant and handsome man, with a hint of admiration and admiration, and her face was full of eagerness to try.Just as she was about to walk over to say hello, another man hurried past her, bringing in the smell of dust from the outside world, and sat down opposite the handsome man.

The handsome man's eyes lit up, and he straightened his sitting posture immediately, showing a cautious and flattering expression, and began to talk to the other party.The woman sighed regretfully, called the waiter, checked out and left.

"What's your business with me all of a sudden?" Lian Peng asked Yi Li who was sitting opposite with a sullen face.The news of Yi Li's engagement was already known from the newspaper yesterday.It's tomorrow, this wolf-hearted man will get married.

"Brother..." Yi Li called softly, with a guilty look on his face.

"Don't call me brother, I don't know you, a heartless bastard." Lian Peng turned his face away and asked impatiently: "Aren't you going to get engaged tomorrow? You are not with the bride, and you are asking me out at this time What are you doing?"

"..." Yi Li lowered his eyes, took out a delicate pink envelope from his bag and put it on the table, pushed in Lian Peng's direction, and said, "This is the invitation for my engagement ceremony tomorrow, I I think it would be better for me to give it to you face to face, and I hope you can appreciate it then."

"You..." Lian Peng laughed angrily, gritted his teeth and looked at the dazzling red on the table, wishing he could pour Yi Li's coffee again.

"Are you joking with me now, or are you satirizing me? You don't care about Rongrong. Anyway, I already know what kind of person you are, so I can't count on it. But you know my attitude, and you still don't care about me." Would it be too much for me to attend your engagement ceremony?"

Yi Li's face turned pale, and he hesitated for a while before saying: "...I just hope that there will be a relative of mine among the people present."

"Hmph, do you think I can still treat you as a family member?" Lian Peng sneered.

"At least that's what I hope. After all, I've always treated you as my own brother all these years..." Yi Li looked straight at Lian Peng with sincere eyes, and Lian Peng spat heavily, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.

"I also regarded you as my younger brother before, and you did not miss anything from Rongrong. But how did you repay me? Something happened to Rongrong, and you ignored it, and went to get married alone, and climbed into a rich family. The young lady is so successful? If I can still treat a white-eyed wolf like you as a younger brother, am I still a normal person?"

"I don't care about Rong Rong's matter, but I still hope that you stay out of it."

"What did you say?" Lian Peng's anger was finally provoked by Yi Li, and he grabbed Yi Li's collar across the table and shouted, "You're already getting married, and you don't want me to care about Rong Rong, you Are you satisfied with letting Rongrong die?"

"Brother, calm down! This is a public place." Surprised, Yi Li hurriedly reminded with a suppressed voice, and pulled Lian Peng's hand away with great force.

"Uh, it hurts." Lian Peng suffered from the pain, and could only stare fiercely at the seemingly innocent person in front of him: "Let me go first."

"I'm sorry." Yi Li also regained his composure, let go of Lian Peng and sat back in his seat, and said with a troubled expression, "Rong Rong's matter is not so easy to solve, and I don't think Rong Rong wants you to disturb it." Come in."

Lian Peng had calmed down at this moment, he stabilized his slightly confused breathing, and asked: "Is this your conclusion after listening to the tape? Or do you know other inside stories that I don't know..."

"...How did you know about the tape?" Yi Li widened his eyes and looked at Lian Peng in surprise, his tone full of puzzled questions.

"What do you mean? Didn't I give you the tape through Ah Xiao?"

"No, the tape was sent directly to me. I haven't seen Ah Xiao in the past two days." Yi Li shook his head.

Lian Peng was startled for a moment, and then came to his senses.It turned out that the group not only sent the tape to him alone, but anyway, Yi Li knew about it now.Lian Rong's hoarse and forbearing voice in the tape, the noisy sounds of fists and feet around, and the last cold and sharp threatening words still echoed in his mind, which always made Lian Peng restless and couldn't help imagining what Lian Rong might suffer. cruelty.

"Since you have heard the contents of the tape, please give me a hearty word. Do you care about the rescue of Rongrong, or do you not care?"

"I'm trying to figure out a way, but I don't want you to get involved, because the forces behind that are not something ordinary people like you and I can fight against." Yi Li crossed his hands and said calmly.

"Heh, don't use such innocuous words to perfuse me. Think of a way? I want to know what you have thought of. Do you have any substantive actions? Is it possible that you can get married on your own? Can Liangde do this to save Rongrong?"

"...Can't you?" Yi Li's eyes looking at Lian Peng were as calm as water, so dark that one couldn't see to the end.

Lian Peng was stunned, and once again felt that he had never understood Yi Li, this forbearing and precocious person who made a silent transition from a boy to a man.It seems that only Rong Rong understands him, even if he sits there, his expression remains unchanged, only one look in his eyes, and Rong Rong can laugh knowingly.And although he desperately wanted to get close to the hearts of the two, he still couldn't get the point, like being isolated from the field by two lonely wolf cubs.

"What do you mean?"

"Brother, come to my ceremony tomorrow, I need someone to give me strength." Yi Li looked directly at Lian Peng with a resolute and fragile look in his eyes.

Lian Peng seemed to be hit by a white light suddenly, and suddenly realized an almost ridiculous fact, and he slapped the table with his palm, making the cups and saucers rattle.He blamed angrily: "Are you an idiot? If you really want to use this method to save Rongrong with the power of the Zhou family, will Rongrong be happy? With his character, he will hate you for the rest of his life!"

"Brother, you don't understand. What Rongrong has offended is not an ordinary hooligan, but a transnational arms smuggling group, which involves a wide range of areas. Do you think it is possible to rescue Rongrong by yourself? Siman's Uncle is a senior official of the Ministry of Public Security. Siman will ask him to pay attention to the safety of the hostages during the process of disarming. Now that we are both being watched by each other, I think you should think about how to protect yourself now, don't listen What kind of CD did those people talk about." Yi Li had no choice but to confess the truth hesitantly.

"How is it possible?" Lian Peng opened his mouth in surprise, and sat limply in the chair, unable to move.Although Lian Rong has been unrestrained and disobedient to discipline, he is not so unreasonable as to come into contact with such deadly illegal activities.

"If it wasn't for Si Man's help, I wouldn't have gotten the news about Rong Rong so quickly. Now things are getting clearer, so don't worry, brother, I won't let anything happen to Rong Rong."

"Oh..." Lian Peng breathed a sigh of relief in a daze, and was slightly relieved when he heard Yi Li's promise.As long as Yi Li hasn't abandoned Rong Rong, it's fine, but...

"No, what does this have to do with whether you get married or not? Could it be that Miss Zhou can't help you if you're a friend? This is human life. If I acquiesce in your decision today, Rongrong will really save you later. Even if you come back, he won’t understand what you did. No, no, I still can’t accept it.” Lian Peng shook his head with a troubled expression on his face.

"Oh, brother, I don't expect Rong Rong to forgive my decision in the future, as long as he can live a healthy and happy life in the future. Originally, there was no result for the two of us, and now it's kind of a breakup." Yi Li chuckle.

"What are you talking about? I wanted you to help me save Rongrong, but I didn't ask you to put the rest of your happiness into it for Rongrong."

"How do you know that I won't be happy? Brother, we will all be happy in the future, trust me. I will help you bring Rong Rong back safe and sound." Yi Li said lightly, still with his usual firm and forbearing expression , Can't see through the thoughts in my heart.

Lian Peng stared at him for a long time, finally sighed, and put away the invitation on the table: "If you really like that woman..."

"Thank you brother." Yi Li's eyes were hot, he quickly lowered his head, bit his lower lip tightly, and suppressed the churning emotions in his heart.

"Oh, Rong Rong will be fine, right?" Lian Peng confirmed again.

"I swear." Yi Li said confidently.

He stood up and watched Lian Peng leave.It wasn't until Lian Peng's figure disappeared outside the door of Yipin Dynasty that Yi Li heaved a sigh of relief, sat back in his seat, put his hands on his forehead, closed his eyes and meditated.

In fact, he was not sure that he could rescue Lian Rong safely, but in order to prevent Lian Peng from going deep into this incident, he had to rely on this white lie to take the risk of finding the CD.

The mobile phone in the bag rang, Yi Li picked it up, put the mobile phone to his ear and talked: "Siman."

"Li, have you dealt with your affairs? There is something wrong with my dress and I can't wear it anymore. My stomach is so obvious that I need to choose a new one. Come here and help me take a look."

"...Okay, don't worry, I'll be there right away." Yi Li stood up.

"Reason." Zhou Simman's soft voice suddenly brought a touch of sadness: "I know this marriage has wronged you, if you regret it now, there is still time."

"Don't say silly things, you are a good girl, how could I regret it?" Yi Li stopped walking and gripped the phone tightly.

"Li, I just want the child to have a father and a legitimate identity..." Zhou Simman sobbed softly in his ear.Yi Li sighed silently, comforted her softly, and carried her bag up to the eighth floor.

When Zhou Siman suddenly proposed to him at first, he was surprised for a while.He can feel that Zhou Simman really likes him, but he has seen too much of how realistic this kind of wealthy daughter who has been praised in the sky since birth is full of superiority.Marriage of these people is always considered separately from love.So he always thought that no matter how much the Miss Zhou family had a crush on him, her marriage must be a well-matched, strong-strong alliance policy marriage.The big deal is that the two can continue to maintain their relationship as lovers after they get married.

Therefore, Zhou Siman's forced marriage was always regarded as the young lady's whim and perfunctory. It was not until she couldn't wait to confess the truth to him that Yi Li realized that everything was not a joke.Because, Zhou Siman is pregnant.

The child's father didn't know who it was, because Miss Tuesday drank alcohol and took some medicine powder at an indulgent sex party that she attended out of curiosity. I don't know who I slept with.She has no way to ask her friends about such things one by one. She can't afford to lose this person, and the Zhou family can't afford to lose him.

In this way, he, a publicist who has no social status at all, but has a skin that can be brought out, has taken advantage of Miss Tuesday.In order to avoid the scandal that the family's daughter was pregnant before marriage but did not know who her father was, the Zhou family tried their best to support the marriage of the two. The company was his gift to Zhou's family.

It's not that Yi Li doesn't sympathize with Zhou Siman, it's just that this marriage is too ridiculous, even under the pressure of the Zhou family, there is still no way for him to agree to it casually.Until he received an anonymous package sent to Yipin Dynasty, and there was a tape alone in the package.When Yi Li played out the tape, his whole body was like being immersed in ice water.

It was a profuse voice, and even though it was just weak gasps and hoarse moans, he recognized it right away.The sound of fists and feet in the tape was expanded infinitely, Yi Li gritted his teeth and heard the last, his eyes were already scarlet.Those threatening words made him lose his mind instantly. He couldn't give any rational judgment about what kind of CD-ROM or what not to call the police.

In a panic, Yi Li vaguely remembered that Zhou Simman had mentioned to him that she had a relative with high authority in the public security department. He didn't care about all this, so he called Zhou Simman cheekily and asked her for help.

Zhou Siman took over the matter tolerantly and enthusiastically, and immediately called her uncle. Half an hour later, an unattractive man came to take the tape away.A day later, the source of the tape was found out, and there were many twists and turns during the process that I couldn't remember much at the time.The only thing he understood was that Lian Rong got into a huge trouble beyond his ability to solve.

Gradually, with the support of Uncle Zhou's powerful information network, he figured out the whole ins and outs of Lian Rong's disappearance.It turned out that a huge arms smuggling group had internal strife with its seller, and an important account was copied and circulated. The seller seemed to want to use this evidence to contain the smuggling group, but the CD was lost. Why did it fall into Lian Rong's hands.Lian Rong's disappearance is bound to be related to the smuggling group's desire to retrieve the accounts.

This private arms transaction has been monitored by the anti-criminal department of the public security for a period of time, but the customs department and the public security department have high-level ghosts bribed by the group, so the involvement is serious. and failed to act.

Yi Li was not informed of too many details, but the appearance of the Zhou family undoubtedly promoted the progress of this large-scale arms smuggling case.And when Zhou Siman told him that the undercover agent stationed in the arms smuggling group had heard that Lian Rong had disappeared and that his life was not in danger for the time being, Yi Li heaved a long sigh of relief, and at the same time, he also saw clearly that the Zhou family had done everything for him. And the manpower and material resources invested in the whole case have left him no way out.

After Zhou Siman told him the preliminary plan of the entire encirclement and suppression operation, he naturally asked him what he thought about the marriage between the two of them. At this time, Yi Li nodded without any hesitation.The Zhou family made preparations for the engagement within a week, with great momentum and full of spectacles, and they must let their daughter marry in a dignified manner.Because, Zhou Siman's stomach can't wait anymore.

Yi Li handed the resignation letter to Ben, and without waiting for Ben to persuade him to stay, he walked out of the gate of Yipin Dynasty without looking back.From this moment on, his life will undergo earth-shaking changes in the future, but he has no power to control his own destiny.Because things have come to this point, there is nothing more important than Lian Rong's life.

Rong Rong, don't blame me, I just want you to be safe and healthy and breathe the same air as me.
