Lin Zhengyi nodded.
"There's nothing else at home, just milk. Make do with this!" Sharena handed over a bottle of milk.
"How can that be? You wait!" Lin Zhengyi waved his hand and said.
Finished!
He turned around and quickly left the house.
But soon, it ran back.
"What did you go to do?" Salena asked curiously.
"I asked my colleague to help me buy groceries. I'll cook after he brings them over," Lin Zhengyi said frankly.
"colleague?"
Salina paused for a moment, then immediately realized what she meant. Her face darkened, and she said, "So, you still have someone watching me?"
"Surveillance?"
Lin Zhengyi shook his head and said, "That's protection!"
"That's what you think, but to me it's surveillance!" Salena said angrily.
"If we don't protect you, what will happen if Zhu Tao sends people?" Lin Zhengyi said coldly.
"Uncle Tao wouldn't do that!"
Salena shook her head firmly.
"No? You should know what he does, right? Do you think someone like him wouldn't? The message we're releasing to the outside world is that you've betrayed him. Do you think, given his personality, he might try to eliminate you completely?" Lin Zhengyi said in a deep voice.
"Uncle Tao wouldn't do that!"
Salena shook her head again, but this time her tone lacked the firmness of before; it sounded more like words of self-comfort.
Apparently!
She also knew Zhu Tao's personality.
“Only by cooperating with us can we completely take down Zhu Tao. Only when Zhu Tao is completely taken down can you be truly safe,” Lin Zhengyi said.
"You don't understand, you don't understand anything!" Upon hearing this, Salena shook her head after a hint of fear flashed in her eyes.
Lin Zhengyi realized that she wasn't unwilling to cooperate, but rather that she was wary.
Immediately!
He asked, "What are you afraid of?"
Salina glanced at him but said nothing.
Lin Zhengyi was helpless!
What I fear most is someone who says nothing at all.
After thinking for a moment, he still said, "Let's try to trust us!"
Salina, however, remained silent.
no way!
Lin Zhengyi had no choice but to stop asking questions.
After waiting for a while, Chen Jiaju brought over the dishes that Lin Zhengyi had ordered.
After simply making two bowls of clear soup noodles with eggs, Lin Zhengyi gave one bowl to Shalena and then happily ate it.
Seeing his expression, Salena temporarily put aside her worries and picked up her chopsticks to eat.
-
at the same time!
Detention center!
Zhu Tao met with his lawyer.
"Rumors are circulating that Salina has betrayed you in exchange for your freedom!" the lawyer said solemnly.
"She doesn't dare!"
Zhu Tao said confidently, "Shalena is a smart woman. She knows what to say and what not to say."
“But she was released by the police!” the lawyer said, frowning.
"I reckon the cops want to use this information to force me to take action against Salina, so that Salina will feel threatened, produce some evidence, or even come forward to testify against me!" Zhu Tao thought for a moment and said decisively.
"What should we do then?" the lawyer asked, puzzled.
"Get rid of her!" Zhu Tao said in a deep voice.
"Didn't you say... why do you still want to get rid of her?" the lawyer asked, even more anxious and puzzled.
"Although it's the cops using a scheme, Salena does know some things about me. If she comes forward to testify, I'll be in big trouble!"
"Besides, she wasn't involved in much of my business, so she wouldn't get a long sentence. Given that we don't have a deep relationship, I'm still a bit wary of her. What if she loses her mind and reports me? Just in case, it's best to get rid of her!" A fierce glint flashed in Zhu Tao's eyes.
He knew that Salina was unlikely to betray him.
But he also knew that Salina wasn't involved in his affairs much and could easily get away with it. Just in case Salina had a brain fart and betrayed him, he decided to eliminate her completely.
The lawyer nodded and then said, "But I heard that the police station has sent people to protect her!"
"Then send more people."
Zhu Tao said fiercely, "I know the police station's style. They usually only send two or three people, at most five or six. Any more than that would affect the normal operation of the police station."
"Understood!" the lawyer said in a deep voice.
"Get it done quickly," Zhu Tao added.
"Yes!"
The lawyer nodded.
He then took his leave and departed.
Watching his departing figure, Zhu Tao narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, "Shalena, Shalena, I originally wanted to train you for a while before letting you truly participate in my affairs. By then, you wouldn't be able to back out even if you wanted to, and I could truly trust you!"
"But what can you do when an accident happens so suddenly? There's no other way now, you can only die."
Chapter 28 The Assassin Arrives
In a blink of an eye!
Two more days have passed!
Perhaps because what she said a couple of days ago had some effect, Sharena hasn't left home these past two days, so nothing has happened.
This didn't bother Lin Zhengyi; he just ate, drank, and slept normally.
But Chan Ka-kui, who had been waiting outside, couldn't take it anymore!
He found Lin Zhengyi.
“Justice, this can’t go on. I’ve been eating, drinking, sleeping, and doing everything in the car for the past two days. My back and legs are aching, and I haven’t showered in two days. I feel like I’m going to get moldy. I think we need to change our approach!” Chen Jiaju complained.
"Speak, what do you want to do?" Lin Zhengyi narrowed his eyes and asked.
Chen Jiaju chuckled and said, "My idea is that tonight, Da Zui and I will pretend to be Zhu Tao's assassins and pretend to kill Shaliana. You will step in to stop us, and we will make it look like we are fleeing in a sorry state, and then we will say that we will definitely come back next time."
"This will definitely scare Salina. That little vixen will definitely produce some evidence to protect herself, and might even agree to be a witness!"
That's a good idea, but stop thinking about it!
Lin Zhengyi silently complained to himself.
The original plot was precisely because Chen Jiaju had such thoughts that he collided with Zhu Tao's men, ultimately leading Shaliana to mistakenly believe that the people sent by Zhu Tao were sent by Chen Jiaju.
This led her to choose not to cooperate for a long time.
"Have you considered what would happen if Zhu Tao's men came?" Lin Zhengyi asked leisurely.
"It's been two days already, it shouldn't be like this, right?" Chen Jiaju asked hesitantly.
"That's precisely because it's been two days!"
Lin Zhengyi rolled his eyes and said, "What do you think murder is? Going to the market to buy vegetables? That's murder! Don't they have to prepare? If they really want to do it, I reckon it'll be in the next day or two!"
"If you pull something like that again, and their people happen to arrive, do you think Salina will think that the people Zhu Tao sent are actually your people? In that case, do you think she'll still want to cooperate?"
"This"
Chen Jiaju hesitated.
To be honest, after hearing what Lin Zhengyi said, he felt that it made some sense.
"Alright, don't think about it too much. Go and rest. I reckon Zhu Tao's men will be here in the next couple of days. Don't mess things up!" Lin Zhengyi patted his shoulder and said seriously.
He guessed that someone would probably come tonight.
You see, in the original plot, Chen Jiaju's men just happened to run into Zhu Tao's men, so Chen Jiaju has this idea now, and logically, tonight is the time for Zhu Tao to send his men.
However, considering that this is a Hong Kong variety show, and various storylines are intertwined, there might be some changes, so he didn't say anything so absolute.
"Alright!" Chen Jiaju nodded reluctantly.
-
That night!
Salina went to take a shower, while Lin Zhengyi stayed in the living room outside.
suddenly!
"what!!!"
A scream sounded.
"Have Zhu Tao's assassins arrived?"
The thought flashed through Lin Zhengyi's mind, and he instinctively rushed towards the bathroom.
Just got to the door.
