Chapter 154 The Determination of Miss Lin!
I will use all my strength to deal with the Tianxiang Group, I promise.
Although Lin Aoxue’s tone was soft, her words were firm.
Su Rui had done so much for her, so she should do something for him in return.
This was Lin Aoxue’s original intention; her thoughts were simple, and her purpose was equally simple.
With her personality, there was no need to hide her intentions from Song Tianxiang. What needed to be said, she would naturally say; what needed to be done, she would naturally do.
For example, treating the Tianxiang Group as an enemy.
“Aoxue, why put yourself through this?” Song Tianxiang knew his actions would certainly offend Lin Aoxue, but he hadn’t expected the Lin family’s young lady to be so determined, so ruthless! She was definitely not joking!
Using all her strength to deal with the Tianxiang Group? Song Tianxiang couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Had he created such a determined enemy? Was he digging his own grave?
“Why?” Lin Aoxue looked at Song Tianxiang and said coldly: “Mr. Song, please be careful. If Su Rui receives any poor treatment at the police station, I will return it to you a thousand times over! I never break my word!”
After saying those words to Song Tianxiang, Lin Aoxue picked up her bag and left. In her lifetime, she would never want to speak another word to anyone from the Song family.
Only Song Tianxiang knew how powerful and astonishing Lin Aoxue’s performance had just been!
After these two outstanding young people had departed, Song Tianxiang realized that his Tang suit was already soaked with sweat!
Shaking his head with a bitter smile, he reached out to pick up the wine glass on the table. However, just as his hand touched the stem, it suddenly trembled, knocking the entire glass of wine onto the floor.
Looking at the blood-red wine liquid, Song Tianxiang’s mind suddenly recalled what Su Rui had said to him earlier.
“Don’t be stupid enough to let yourself be used as someone else’s pawn.”
After carefully pondering these words, Song Tianxiang couldn’t understand what deep meaning they contained, but an indistinct chill had already risen from the bottom of his heart!
…
After returning to the Lin family villa, Lin Aoxue went straight to her father Lin Fuzhang’s room. Opening the door, she found her father reading a book while her mother Wei Shuling was watching a Korean drama on her laptop, her eyes swollen, obviously having just cried because of the emotional plot.
Seeing Lin Aoxue enter, the elderly couple put down the book and laptop respectively and quickly stood up.
It was rare for Lin Aoxue to take the initiative to come to their room. Most of the time, this young lady of the Lin family would shut herself in her bedroom after dinner, not taking a single step outside.
“Aoxue, what’s the matter?”
Wei Shuling wiped away her tears and stood up with a smile, but her precious daughter completely ignored her mother.
Lin Aoxue looked at Lin Fuzhang and said, “I want to go after the Tianxiang Group.”
“Go after the Tianxiang Group?” Hearing these words from his daughter’s mouth, Lin Fuzhang felt extremely surprised. He knew that although his daughter had talent in the business world, she never had the mindset for delivering fatal blows. Why was she now actively requesting to go after Ninghai’s Tianxiang Group?
Although Lin Fuzhang had a thousand questions in his mind, he didn’t ask many. In all her years, his daughter had never done anything on impulse. If she had decided on something, she must have her reasons!
However, the Tianxiang Group was financially powerful, and in terms of actual strength, they were not much inferior to Bikang. If the two sides really went to war, it would likely result in mutual destruction.
From Lin Fuzhang’s standpoint, he did not want to see this outcome. Currently, Bikang’s new project was in the design phase and would soon begin construction in the capital, requiring an enormous amount of funds. If they had to divert funds to fight someone else at this time, it would definitely not be a wise choice.
Looking at his daughter’s serious expression, Lin Fuzhang cleared his throat and then solemnly asked, “Aoxue, are you sure you really want to do this? Have you thought it through?”
“No need to think about it,” Lin Aoxue looked at her father and said calmly, “Because of Su Rui.”
…
This time, Su Rui was not taken to the New South Branch, but to the Ninghai City Police Headquarters, thus losing the opportunity to see Ye Binglan.
In a very similar interrogation room, looking at this enclosed space, Su Rui seemed to recall something, with past events flashing before his eyes.
“Time really flies; in the blink of an eye, so much time has passed,” sighed Su Rui softly, wearing handcuffs.
“Confess all your criminal acts. Why did you beat Song Yili and cause him serious injury?” Ma Dongfang sat across from him and asked sternly.
A trace of contempt flashed across Su Rui’s lips: “Because he deserved it.”
“What kind of attitude is this!” Ma Dongfang slammed the table. He had to get Su Rui’s full confession to ensure this annoying guy would spend ten or eight years in prison. Arresting him was only half the job done.
Su Rui looked at Ma Dongfang with a trace of pity in his eyes. He raised his hands, drawing the other’s gaze to the shiny silver handcuffs between his hands.
“Ma Dongfang, do you know that these things are easy to put on, but not that difficult to take off,” Su Rui said meaningfully.
“Taking them off is certainly not difficult because I have the key, but you don’t,” Ma Dongfang said coldly.
It seemed this criminal suspect was really uncooperative.
“Is that so?” Su Rui said suggestively, “But sometimes, these things are hard to put on and even harder to take off.”
“Stop with the riddles and confess quickly!”
Ma Dongfang said impatiently. When it came to intellectual games, he was clearly no match for Su Rui!
But in the next second, his eyes widened, and he couldn’t say a word!
Because Su Rui had raised his hands level with his face, clenched his fists, and was slowly moving them apart.
Ma Dongfang clearly saw the chain between the handcuffs slowly deforming!
Using physical strength to fight against steel was something absolutely impossible for a normal person!
Absolutely impossible!
Su Rui’s facial expression didn’t change at all, nor did his face turn red. He looked calmly at Ma Dongfang while his hands continued to slowly apply force!
In all his years as a police officer, Ma Dongfang had never seen such a situation—someone who could deform handcuffs with bare hands! It was more legendary than the Arabian Nights!
Snap!
A crisp sound that made Ma Dongfang’s whole body tremble finally rang out!
The chain link between the two cuffs instantly broke!
Ma Dongfang was completely frozen! He had no idea what to do! Now it seemed their roles had completely reversed!
After breaking the chain, Su Rui’s hands were free again, with only the cuff rings remaining, which didn’t affect his movement at all.
Flexing his wrists, Su Rui looked playfully at the still stunned Ma Dongfang and said, “Do you know why your brother Ma Donglai was hospitalized?”
Ma Dongfang was startled. He knew his brother was in a miserable state, with multiple fractures and even a knife wound through his palm!
Afterward, no matter how much Ma Dongfang questioned his brother, he never revealed the specific circumstances of his injury! Only that his normally arrogant and domineering brother had become cautious and timid after that injury. Every time the incident was mentioned, terror would appear in his eyes!
Why would he ask this question? Could he be the one who put his brother in the hospital?
Is that… possible?
When Ma Dongfang thought of this, the broken handcuffs caught his eye!
Ma Dongfang’s eyelids involuntarily twitched violently!
He finally realized how dangerous his situation was!
Almost instinctively, Ma Dongfang drew his gun and pointed it at Su Rui, who was slowly walking toward him, nearly shouting, “What are you doing? Sit down!”
Su Rui pursed his lips: “How useless. Why are you panicking? I can’t do anything to you. But if you’re any ruder to me, I can’t guarantee you won’t end up like him.”
So it was him!
Understanding this point, anger instantly flared in Ma Dongfang’s eyes!
“Don’t be angry; anger won’t help. Look at your brother—didn’t he have to swallow his broken teeth with his blood?” Su Rui clenched his fist and smiled, “Don’t you want to know why he was beaten so badly yet didn’t say a word? I’ll tell you the answer: in this world, having a strong fist is the only truth; everything else is useless.”
“Who are you? What’s your identity?” Ma Dongfang didn’t lower his service weapon and continued pointing it at Su Rui, though his voice now carried a hint of panic!
His brother was beaten so badly yet remained tight-lipped afterward. Ma Dongfang had long sensed something was wrong. In retrospect, the attacker must have been someone of extremely high status and immense power; otherwise, given his brother Ma Donglai’s personality, he would never have swallowed his anger silently! He used to be the kind of person who would punch someone for stepping on his foot!
“What’s my identity?” Su Rui picked up the broken chain and played with it in his hand: “That’s really a difficult question. I have to say, you’ve stumped me.”
Even with a gun in his hand, Ma Dongfang found himself completely at a disadvantage in front of this man.
Shouldn’t he be the nervous one? Why was it himself?
Ma Dongfang wasn’t a fool. A man who could remain so calm facing a police gun, who could beat his brother nearly to disability and make him not utter a single word, was definitely not someone he should mess with!
But he already had!
And reportedly, his brother Ma Donglai was severely injured along with Deputy Bureau Chief Zhang Yuanxing. Afterward, Deputy Chief Zhang similarly made no pursuit of the matter! The two seemed to have agreed beforehand to keep silent about the incident, never mentioning what happened to anyone!
Even when people came to express sympathy, they would say they had accidentally bumped into something!
Who accidentally bumps into something and ends up with multiple fractures all over their body? Even a fool could see something unusual was going on!
