Chapter 417: Chapter 419 Assassination
Han Meng’s bedroom door.
Leng Xuan knocked on the door, and Han Meng opened it, “Are you looking for Xiao Hao?”
“Um, has Mr. Qin gone to bed?” Leng Xuan asked.
Han Meng replied, “No, he hasn’t. Come in.”
Inside the room, Zhao Yuying, Han Meng, and Qiao’er were at the bedside, keeping vigil over Qin Hao.
When Qin Hao saw Leng Xuan enter, he said to Zhao Yuying and Han Meng, “Yu Ying, Meng, why don’t you and Qiao’er go out first? I need to talk to Leng Xuan about something.”
Once the three of them had left, Leng Xuan began, “Hao, we’ve found out who it was.”
A flash of surprise crossed Qin Hao’s eyes, “That quick? Who did it?”
Leng Xuan stated, “According to Li Wenjun’s investigation, one of the dead drivers had contact with Luo Feng of Ruixing Group’s butler before his death.
Moreover, the one captured alive was a bodyguard of Xiao Liang’s. He admitted it was Xiao Liang who sent him, but I think it was Xiao Zhi’s idea.
Before the incident, Luo Feng, Tang Zhongqian, and Xiao Zhi had met once, and no one knows what they discussed.”
A startling glint appeared in Qin Hao’s eyes; after a long pause, he calmly said, “I understand.”
Leng Xuan hesitated before adding, “Hao, I’m confident that I can make them disappear from this world.”
Qin Hao shook his head, “These three are well-known figures in Jianghai City. If the three of them died,
it would cause a massive upheaval, especially the Xiao Family. Although the old man of the Xiao Family has stepped back,
if he truly got angry and used his connections, he could even alert the higher-ups. Even if there’s no evidence,
it won’t be easy for me. Especially those figures at the top, they are very sensitive about this kind of malicious business competition.
If we cause their discontent, they will not care about me. Even with great ability, I would be finished.
Now, the best choice is not to act, because the higher authorities will investigate this matter, and it’s very likely it will end up leading nowhere.
But everyone will be well aware of the outcome and those people will certainly gain the higher-ups’ disfavor, constantly under scrutiny.
Dealing with them later will be much easier. We cannot be hasty now, do you understand? At least, we can’t resolve this using such means.”
Leng Xuan didn’t understand much of what he said, but what he did understand was that they weren’t to act at the moment.
Qin Hao said, “Tell Li Bao not to be rash, listen to my orders.”
Leng Xuan nodded, “Understood, Mr. Qin.”
...
At Luo Feng’s home.
“They are just a bunch of nobodies.”
...
Haoting Sea View Villa District.
In the afternoon, Qin Hao received calls from Du Yingqiang, Ye Lanxin, and the sisters Li Qingya.
Hearing Qin Hao’s robust replies, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Having just started a preliminary cooperative relationship, it would have been bad news for them if something had happened to Qin Hao.
He also received many calls from Jiangshan, with Kang Youyi, An Linxuan, and others calling to ask after him.
That day, Jiangshan Roasted Duck and Xinghui Wine increased their advertising efforts, covering various TV channels and online platforms.
Jiangshan Roasted Duck had already spread to six or seven provinces and cities, its influence growing.
Strong promotional efforts benefited the expansion of Jiangshan Roasted Duck into various provinces and cities and greatly enhanced the reputation of Xinghui Wine.
By evening, Qin Hao was barely able to walk; his recovery speed was astonishing.
“Injuries to muscles and bones take a hundred days to heal,” especially with such serious injuries.
To outsiders, Qin Hao would need at least four or five months of rest; who would have thought he could walk the same night?
Han Meng knew Qin Hao’s abilities, so she wasn’t very shocked, but Zhao Yuying was different. Seeing him slowly coming out made her eyes widen.
She hurriedly got up and went to support Qin Hao, “Xiao Hao, why have you come out?”
Qin Hao replied, “Ying, don’t worry, I can already move around with some difficulty.”
Night was falling.
After dinner, Qin Hao returned to his second-floor bedroom; he was almost fine and would fully recover after another night’s sleep.
Not far away, in another villa, Tang Qi was watching Qin Hao’s place through binoculars.
Seeing Qin Hao go up to the second-floor bedroom, a cold smile crossed his lips as he moved out from the dark villa.
He was wearing the black uniform of the Flying Leopard Guard Battalion.
He arrived at the small garden behind Qin Hao’s villa, where he had observed for a long time and had already figured out some patterns.
Although there were many guards outside Qin Hao’s villa, the arrangement was chaotic and disorderly, making it easy for someone to infiltrate.
