I am an insect

Chapter 55 Blackmail

In the darkness of night, a long luxury limousine was driving down the road. Tian Cang and the man in sunglasses were sitting in the car. The car phone next to Tian Cang was on speakerphone, and a man's voice came through.

"Boss, we've checked the surveillance footage. In the half hour before and after the time period you mentioned, only two people left the Grand Mansion Nightclub."

"Hmm, have you found the information on these two people?"

"The investigation is complete. Both men are named Li Weimin, 38 years old, and Wu Aiguo, 45 years old. They both work for a company called Guoye..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tian Cang frowned and said, "Alright, there's no need to report these detailed details. Remember, just have someone keep an eye on the two of them, but don't alert them. Wait for my next instructions."

"Yes," came the voice from the other end of the phone.

Tian Cang hung up the phone and then said to the driver in front, "No need to follow anymore, let's go back."

The driver responded and began to change direction.

"What, we don't need to track down his exact location tonight?" the man in sunglasses asked.

Tian Cang smiled faintly, "It's too late, it's time for Lord Huang to rest. He's worked hard today..."

He paused slightly before continuing, "Now that we've found out that one of these people, Li Weimin and Wu Aiguo, is Ji Ye, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in Ancheng, so he has nowhere to hide. Tomorrow, I'll have Haiqing contact them, and we'll be able to confirm which one of them is Ji Ye."

"There's no need to trouble Lord Huang for now. He'll definitely be in contact with the teacher's organization these next few days. This time, we'll uproot that organization completely. Speaking of which, we owe a lot to Lord Huang this time."

The man in sunglasses nodded and said, "Alright, let me know if you need anything from Lord Huang. Now, please take me back."

Tian Cang nodded, a smile appearing on his face, and slowly clenched his right hands together.

Ji Ye was unaware that his identity had been exposed. This poor reptile was probably still gloating, thinking he had gotten rid of them. He had no idea that in his eyes, he was just bait to catch a big fish, and how could he escape their grasp?

Ji Ye returned to He Longtao's bridal chamber and found that Lin Ya was not there. He originally wanted to talk to Lin Ya about bedroom arts, but he knew that the possibility of Lin Ya agreeing was slim, so he did not take the initiative to contact Lin Ya.

The unease in his heart disappeared. Ji Ye was certain that no one had followed him here. He felt relieved. He was also exhausted after half a night. Although the Yellow-Red Technique was incredibly effective on mental bodies, even after handling eight women, his body still felt tired.

I lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

When Ji Ye woke up naturally, the sun was already high in the sky.

"Fortunately, He Longtao took a long leave of absence, so he doesn't have to go to school for the next few days." Based on He Longtao's memories, Ji Ye knew that after getting married, he and Ye Xuan had been partying every night, and his body was almost completely drained. He couldn't even get out of bed. Before Ji Ye slept with He Longtao, He Longtao had already asked for a few days off from school.

After washing up and going out for breakfast, in just one or two days, He Longtao, who originally looked thin and weak, underwent a dramatic change in his mental state. Ji Ye believed that he would fully recover in a few days.

After finishing breakfast, Ji Ye was considering whether to contact Lin Ya. After thinking about it, he decided to talk to Lin Ya directly about getting married. If she was willing, it would be of great benefit to both of them.

The effects of mating between adult insects are definitely far greater than those of ordinary human women.

Just then, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was a call from He Longtao's mother.

Ji Ye frowned, and memories of He Longtao's mother immediately surfaced in his mind.

In He Longtao's memory, he knew that He Longtao came from a single-parent family. His father died early in a car accident, and his mother never remarried. Instead, she raised him single-handedly, helping him to become successful and start his own family.

In He Longtao's memory, Ji Ye could sense the deep-seated respect and dependence He Longtao had for his mother.

It could be said that his mother was everything to him.

After answering the phone, influenced by He Longtao, Ji Ye naturally felt a sense of respect and affection for He Longtao's mother on the other end of the line.

As soon as I answered the phone, a woman's anxious voice came from the other end: "Xiao Tao, where are you now? Do you have time to come to the hospital?"

"The hospital? Are you not feeling well?" Ji Ye, influenced by He Longtao, felt a pang of worry upon hearing this.

"It wasn't me. I saw an old lady fall down, so I helped her up. She seemed very grateful and reasonable, so I didn't think much of it and took her to the hospital out of kindness. But when her children got to the hospital, they insisted that I was the one who hit her. Even the old lady changed her story and said that I was the one who hit her. She said that if I didn't hit her, why did I help her up? She wanted me to pay for her medical expenses and provide compensation, otherwise she wouldn't let me leave. Ugh, I'm so angry."

She was able to raise He Longtao on her own, and she wasn't a weak woman, but now, faced with this situation, she couldn't explain herself and could only turn to her son for help in her anxiety.

"Wasn't there any CCTV footage? Were there any other people around at the time?" Ji Ye frowned. Seeing how anxious she was, it was highly likely that there was no CCTV footage there. She was such a grown-up, yet she still made such a basic mistake. At the very least, she should have found some witnesses or recorded a video before helping someone.

"Nothing's wrong. I can't explain myself now. Xiao Tao, do you think I should call the police?"

Hearing the anxiety in the other person's voice, Ji Ye comforted them, "Don't worry. Since there's no CCTV footage or witnesses, even if you call the police, it'll just be a mediation, which won't be very effective. I'll go talk to them. It's not a big deal; at most, you'll just have to pay some compensation. They're probably just trying to extort money. Just consider it a lesson learned."

Hearing her son's calm tone, He Longtao's mother felt much more at ease. She then gave him the hospital address before hanging up.

Ji Ye took a lot of cash from the villa last night, packed it all in a backpack, and drove off. He knew the other party just wanted money. If it wasn't too much, he would give them some money to settle things. But if it went too far, he wouldn't tolerate such people.

Upon arriving at the hospital, they quickly met He Longtao's mother and the elderly woman and her family who were lying in the hospital bed.

The old lady's family came in large numbers, including her eldest son and daughter-in-law, as well as her youngest daughter's family. They all looked aggressive, especially the eldest son, who was the leader. He had a big head, a thick neck, and a face full of menacing features. He was clearly used to being domineering and arrogant, and at this moment he was even more unforgiving. He Longtao's mother was blocked in the ward by them and not allowed to leave.

Upon seeing Ji Ye arrive, He Longtao's mother rushed to greet him as if he were her savior.
