Chapter 548: 548: Nefarious and Vicious Woman
This assassin, truly experienced, guessed the truth right away.
So, his conjecture about the person who hired him must also be correct.
Wen Bilan!
It’s her!
It must be her!
He had suspected her.
Just after You breathed his last, she impatiently proposed to raise his son. At that time, he felt it was highly suspicious and unusual.
After decades of marriage, he knew Wen Bilan’s character too well. How could she be so kind-hearted to willingly help raise the son of his mistress!
So, she pretended to be a good person, pleaded with Madam Lu for him and allowed You and his child to stay, for the sole purpose of killing You!
What a sinister and malicious woman!
And what about the boy?
Could the child be in danger, too?
Lan Ruikang felt a surge of fear in his heart, grateful that he didn’t agree to let his wife raise his son! Otherwise, who knows what irreparable consequences it would have.
Seeing his pale face, Bao Fu knew he probably had the answer.
He relaxed a little and said, “I’ve told you everything I know. Can I go now? I was severely injured from hitting her, and then beaten up by your people. My whole body is in pain. Without treatment, I might die. And if I die here, it won’t look good for you guys, will it?”
Lu Lingche didn’t look at him, but calmly asked Lan Ruikang, “Director Lan, how do you want to deal with this guy?”
“Director Lan?”
Bao Fu suddenly looked puzzled, “Your family name is Lan? That lady’s surname is Tao, is she not your daughter? Oh, you wouldn’t happen to be her lover, would you?”
“You know too much.”
Lan Ruikang, pale-faced and hoarse, his eyes filled with hatred.
“Thanks for your help, President Lu. I’ll take care of this man! And could you please have your men tie his hands and deliver him to my car?”
Bao Fu suddenly got anxious: “What’s going on here?! Is there no decency or honor amongst you all? I told you, I’m merely a hired hand, I didn’t kill your mistress! There’s a clear perpetrator here, go find the person who hired me! Worst case scenario, I will return the money I earned from this job, okay?”
Yet, Lu Lingche ordered Yu Fei, “Tie him up, and take him to Director Lan’s car.”
Yu Fei promptly obeyed, using the prepared rope to bind Bao Fu securely.
All the while, Bao Fu was struggling and shouting, “I am innocent! Let me go! Is there no respect for law and order anymore? How can you just go around tying up people?”
Lan Ruikang’s voice was chilling, “How dare you speak of law? You’ve taken a life! Nope, you’ve taken countless lives! You more than deserve death!”
Bao Fu finally felt a surge of fear, he hurriedly said, “This Director Lan, you must reason with me! If I didn’t do it, another assassin would have! ”
“Do you know how much the employer offered? A grand sum of two million! Even after the intermediary fee, the assassin could still pocket more than one million!”
“Many people were jostling to take on this task! I merely had a quicker hand and seized the opportunity. She was bound to die anyway, you can’t blame me!”
“Besides, she’s just a mistress. If she’s gone, you’re free to find a new one! Why are you making such a big deal about a woman?”
“I did you a huge favor, even helped you identify the person who hired me. You should be thanking me, you should set me free!”
Suddenly, Lan Ruikang said, “I will thank you.”
Bao Fu was highly skeptical about the sincerity of that statement, “Really? Why do you look like you’re about to kill me?”
“Do you know what I do for a living?”
“What’s your job?”
“I’m a doctor.”
“So, you’re going to treat my injuries?”
“No, I’m going to help you die quicker.”
