Chapter 718 Shopping Time

In Xi Cheng's study room..

"How is that driver's condition?" Xi Cheng asked as he watched the news on his tablet being played.

"He is in bad condition and doesn't seem like he would be alive for long. More than physical injury, he is traumatized with certain things which is making it difficult to save him," the assistant replied.

"It's better if he dies. Traumatized people can say anything anywhere," Xi Cheng commented.

"Seems like a boss yet to see the complete news. The man can't talk as they have cut his tongue," the assistant informed.

It surprised Xi Cheng, "Didn't they plan to scare him and make him say the truth in front of everyone?"

The assistant thought about it as he concluded, "Doesn't seem like they want to show the truth to the world. If it was the case, then Yu Suyin won't be killed either. It's a clear way of taking revenge on their own."

Xi Cheng gave out a deep sigh. "I think, I underestimated her too much."

"She is not what she looks like or she wouldn't be the president of Lu corporation so easily. Mr. Wen Tao and Mr. Yun Shen sided with her which means there is more that we don't know."

"Revenge? Doesn't that mean I would be the next target?" Xi Cheng asked.

"I think we should tighten up the security."

Having a smirk, Xi Cheng said, "I should wait for her to come to me and welcome her nicely as she is the wife of my younger brother's friend. I am curious to know what she is that Lu Qiang sacrificed his life for her."

When Xi Cheng finished going through the news, he asked, "What was the reply to our message?"

"They haven't replied yet."

Xi Cheng smiled as he already expected this. "If she is that smart, she must have caught the faults in that video and brushed it off or she must have found something really useful against me that she is sure to take me down."

"What can it be?" the assistant asked.

"You need not know." Xi Cheng somewhere understood the secret that Lu Qiang knew, Jiang Yuyan got the hold of it and soon he needs to shut her too.

Inside the living room of a certain bungalow in the city…

"Mr. Fu Jing, what do you think about it all?" Li Yong, who was sitting on the couch, asked.

"I think it's done by them as it looks like the same accident that happened with president Lu Qiang," Fu Jing replied as he looked like in deep thought.

"I think so too and I think this time they are even dangerous," Li Yong concluded confidently.

Fu Jing nodded, "I wonder who dared to plan president Lu Qiang's accident. If they know who are the culprits, then soon we will get the news of the death of someone powerful among us."

"You are right, Mr. Fu Jing because ordinary people can't dare to do it so the person behind it all must be someone powerful."

"Few days back, someone among us got shot," Fu Jing commented, hinting Li Yong towards someone.

"M-Mr. Xin Cheng?" Li Yong exclaimed.

"He is one sly fox whom no one should trust. If he can kill his own brother then….."

"No one is sure if he killed his brother…." Li Yong interrupted siding with Xi Cheng.

"it's an obvious thing to understand and there is no need for proof," said Fu Jing.

"What happened with Yu Suyin and the driver was a sound planning, so It's hard to believe they shot Mr. Xi Cheng with no proper planning and he is still alive," Li Yong questioned.

"Sometimes people take the decision out of impulse, so that must be the case but for now let's keep it low and stay away from Mr. Xi Cheng," Fu Jing suggested and Li Yong agreed.

Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun came downstairs to go shopping. The car was ready and along with the driver, San Zemin was present there too. It surprised Jiang Yuyan as San Zemin just called her a while ago to inform her about the plan they just executed and he was already here in front of her.

San Zemin knew his boss was going out so as soon as they finished the business of punishing the driver, San Zemin straightaway drove to Lu Mansion, and on the way, he informed Jiang Yuyan about everything with the latest updates he was getting from his men.

San Zemin, who was standing beside the front passenger seat door, bowed to both of them as he said, "Nice to see fourth young master."

Lu Lijun just nodded slightly, not paying much attention to it. Little did he know, he would be the future king who would control them all and San Zemin would work for him.

"What are you doing here, San Zemin?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

"It's my duty to follow the boss everywhere and to protect her," San Zemin replied like a loyal knight of a queen.

"We are just going out for shopping and not for any war. Also, you will attract the attention of so many people if you follow us, so better not come with us."

San Zemin looked like a royal bodyguard of someone really powerful because of his attire and his strong build. One could guess he must be one of the most handsome detectives when he was serving the government.

"I will make sure to not attract attention," San Zemin assured.

He looked like he won't listen to his boss. Even if she won't allow him to come with him, Jiang Yuyan was sure he will follow her anyway, so she agreed.

"Okay, then."

As she said it, the driver opened the car door for her and Lu Lijun. Both sat on the back passenger seat while San Zemin sat on the Co-driver seat.

When they reached the mall, San Zemin said, "Boss can go ahead, I will be there soon."

Nodding, Jiang Yuyan left with Lu Lijun.

"What would you like to buy casual clothes or something very smart?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

"I look smart in anything I wear," reapplied Lu Lijun.

He didn't look like he was in a mood of joking, instead, he looked like he meant it.
