On the other end of the phone.
Li Weigang continued.
"The trail has completely dried up. We can't find the person, and there are no new leads to follow."
"I'm calling to tell you that you really need to be careful these days."
"The person who can afford to hire a hitman for a million dollars and still perfectly conceal their whereabouts is definitely not simple."
"I'll let you know as soon as I have any new leads."
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Li," Lin Yuan replied in a deep voice.
After hanging up the phone, the carriage fell silent instantly.
The car drove smoothly on the road.
Lin Yuan looked at the traffic ahead, his face darkening.
The more I thought about it, the more something seemed off.
Bai Che's revenge was a display of spoiled brat temper.
An enemy that suddenly appears out of nowhere is doomed from the moment they make a move.
It's impossible to defend against it.
"Who is it...?"
Lin Yuan murmured something in a low voice.
My vigilance instantly spiked.
He is very clear.
As long as the other party is not caught, the hidden danger will always exist.
A mysterious adversary lurks in the shadows, seeking to kill him.
This feeling is so uncomfortable.
It seems we must be even more cautious in the days to come.
The Tang family home in Lincheng, second floor, master bedroom.
The main lights in the room were not on; only a dim bedside lamp was left on.
Tang Ruowei curled up on the soft bed, her face so gloomy it looked like it could drip water.
She stared intently at an encrypted text message that had just popped up on her phone screen, her fingertips trembling slightly uncontrollably.
"The operation has failed, the target is not simple, I have been exposed, I must leave the country immediately, and my return date is uncertain."
Those few lines of text were like a heavy hammer, striking her heart hard.
Tang Ruowei felt a buzzing in her head, and a chill ran from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head.
Did they mess it up?
That was a top-tier assassin she hired from the dark web for a full million dollars!
Did they really slip up like that?
What made her even more desperate was that Zhang Qiang didn't even dare to stay in China and fled abroad overnight!
This was completely beyond her expectations!
She gripped her phone, her chest heaving violently, feeling a panic that felt like a million ants were crawling inside her.
She won't get a good night's sleep for the rest of her life unless she kills Lin Yuan!
That man was like a time bomb, ready to shatter everything she had painstakingly built at any moment!
Tang Ruowei took several deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.
She bit her lower lip hard, frantically racking her brains for a solution.
"Calm down...I must calm down..."
The police shouldn't be able to trace it back to me, right?
After all, a long time had passed since Lin Yuan last came to the Tang family to "diagnose" her.
Moreover, Zhang Qiang is always cautious in his actions. Now that he has successfully left the country, the police's leads in China must have been completely cut off.
As long as she stubbornly denies it, who can connect the remittance of one million to her?
Thinking this way, her tense nerves relaxed a little, and she felt a bit more confident.
"Knock knock knock—"
Just then, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Mingjie's deep and gentle voice came through the door.
"Ruowei, are you asleep? It's your dad."
Tang Ruowei felt a sudden panic, her heart almost leaping out of her throat.
She reflexively turned off her phone screen and placed it face down under her pillow.
Then, she took a deep breath, quickly adjusted her facial expression, and completely concealed the gloom and panic in her eyes.
When she looked up again, her face had returned to its usual weak and confused look.
"Dad, I'm not asleep, come in."
The doorknob turned, and Tang Mingjie pushed the door open and walked in.
He looked at his daughter sitting on the bed, his eyes filled with heartache and love.
"Still thinking about the past?" Tang Mingjie sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Tang Ruowei lowered her eyes, nodded gently, and remained silent.
Tang Mingjie reached out and patted her shoulder, his tone revealing a hint of barely suppressed excitement.
"Ruowei, I have good news to tell you."
"In a couple of days, Dad will take you to Yanjing."
Tang Ruowei was slightly taken aback, then looked up: "What are you going to Yanjing for?"
"My father used his connections and finally managed to get in touch with an old expert at the Yanjing Health Bureau."
Tang Mingjie looked at her expectantly, "I heard that expert is a leading figure in neurology; maybe he can cure your amnesia!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Ruowei's face instantly froze.
A smile that looked more like a grimace stretched across her lips, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.
"Dad...maybe we should just give up on treatment?"
She lowered her head, her voice barely audible, carrying a hint of deliberate pleading.
"Isn't everything fine the way I am now? Why bother with anything else..."
Seeing her like this, Tang Mingjie felt even more heartbroken, assuming that she was afraid of the disappointment that would follow if her hopes were dashed.
Little did he know that his daughter, sitting in front of him, was experiencing a turbulent storm in her heart.
Nobody knew that she didn't have amnesia at all!
The real Tang Ruowei died several years ago!
She killed him herself!
She was nothing more than a substitute who was forced into the position for the sake of a huge fortune and the status of the eldest daughter of the Tang family!
She already bore a resemblance to Tang Ruowei, and after several plastic surgeries, she transformed herself into Tang Ruowei's appearance.
In order to avoid being exposed, she could only pretend to have amnesia every day.
Now, Tang Mingjie is actually going to take her to see a top expert from the Health Bureau to treat her amnesia?
She didn't want to go at all!
Tang Ruowei's hands, hidden under the blanket, were clenched so tightly in her palms that her nails almost dug into her flesh.
Seeing that she was keeping her head down and not speaking, Tang Mingjie thought she was scared, so he quickly reached out and held her hand, his tone becoming more gentle and firm.
"Ruowei, don't be afraid."
"It's okay even if it can't be cured. Dad just wants you to try, so you won't have any regrets."
"Don't worry, no matter what the outcome, you will always be Dad's most beloved daughter, and that will never change."
Tang Ruowei looked up and saw the undisguised affection in Tang Mingjie's eyes, and a complex emotion inexplicably flashed through her heart.
But she quickly suppressed that emotion.
She took a deep breath, forced a sweet smile, and nodded gently.
"Okay... I'll listen to Dad."
Upon seeing this, Tang Mingjie immediately beamed with joy, offered her a few words of comfort, and then got up to leave.
As the bedroom door closed gently, Tang Ruowei's smile vanished instantly.
She lay back down on the bed, staring at the ceiling, her eyes gradually turning cold and deep.
Go to Yanjing...
Just go.
No matter how skilled the experts at the health bureau are, they can't possibly find out her identity.
If this trip to Yanjing still yields no results, Tang Mingjie will likely give up completely and abandon any hope of treating her.
Only then will her status be truly secure!
