Everyone was speechless when they heard Lei Zhen sighing and feeling completely disappointed at the outco.
"You seriously investigate all on your own will, Cecile?" Lei Zhen couldn't help but ask her again to confirm it.
And when Cecile nodded her head, feeling confused by his behavior, Lei Zhen fell into a slump.
"Uncle Lei Quan, just releases her, but as for Carlos, I'll let you decide how to deal with him." Lei Zhen turned to Lei Quan and addressed him as uncle, not bothering to play the stubborn attitude.
If Cecile was investigating him under the order of either person of the Shan Clan, then Lei Zhen would have a legitimate excuse to ask for information regarding them, including how they were involved in the car accident.
Unfortunately for him though, everything was acted on her own and was unrelated to Shan Zhikong nor Shan Lin.
anwhile, Lei Quan was sowhat happy with this outco.
It was the first ti in a long ti since Lei Zhen had addressed him as uncle and requested him for sothing.
And all that simply to have Cecile released? Lei Quan was glad to do him this favor to nd their broken relationship sowhat.
"Release her and bring her back properly without hurting her." Lei Quan instructed the n in an authoritative tone.
"Wait, please release Carlos as well. He was rely acting under my instruction." Cecile quickly pleaded, unwilling to leave without Carlos.
After all, they had gotten into this ss because of her haughtiness and underestimation of her opponent. She wasn't going to be unloyal and leave Carlos for death.
Lei Quan ignored her pleading and rely gave a small glance at Lei Zhen, clearly asking him for his input.
All eyes were now laid upon Lei Zhen as one word of his, decided the fate of Carlos.
Feeling the stares from nurous people, Lei Zhen was sowhat irritated.
This was the main reason why he hated to co back here because people would actually stop and wait for him to make a decision. He would have rather lived in idleness and not have to deal with these types of situations. "Why the hell are you all looking at like we're in so kind of mafia situation?" Lei Zhen twitched his mouth and said.
"I don't care what happened to him whatsoever." He added, wanting to get up and move to a more quiet place.
As for Cecile's pleas, Lei Zhen really couldn't care less about her. They had only t once and she was already trying to sche or investigate him. Such actions were already considered a red flag.
By letting her go, he was already being polite in respect of Tang Qiaolian since their rivalry seed to be of goodwill and not the kind of "I kill you" type of rivalry.
Just when he was about to leave the scene, Cecile suddenly brought up a topic that caused him to halt his steps.
"Lei Zhen, didn't you want to know sothing about Shan Zhikong? I have so information that should be worthy enough to trade it for Carlos." Cecile said, hoping that this would be enough to rouse his interest.
When they first t, Lei Zhen had brought up the nas of Shan Zhikong and Shan Lin. And although she might not know why he called those nas out, she was sure that Lei Zhen wanted to learn more about them.
Sure enough, Lei Zhen turned around and stared at her.
"If your information is truly worth that price, then so be it. However, if the information is nothing important, then don't bla for being ruthless." He warned coldly.
Ever since he learned of their involvent, his perspectives of them were quite serious and he wouldn't forgive anyone playing a fool of him with fake information.
He would rather have them hide it from him well, just like how Lei Quan had been doing it for years.
anwhile, Lei Quan was starting to beco nervous when Cecile still managed to have this trump card to convince Lei Zhen.
"Wait a minute, I'll just let you off with this warning, but beware that I'll be watching the two of you if you dare to do it again." Lei Quan said, seemingly trying to shoo them away before Lei Zhen could get a chance to gain more information. The less he knew, the better it was for his safety and sanity.
Alas, Lei Zhen crackled his knuckles as he glared at Lei Quan. It was clear that he wasn't letting this opportunity go, and the tension could be sensed by the other n. They were clearly placed in a difficult spot since both people weren't soone they could offend.
Previously, the snipers and bodyguards that had accidentally glared at Lei Zhen with hostile eyes, were quickly beaten and punished by Butler Gongshun Ren.
Thus, the n could only pretend their eyes were temporarily blinded and their ears were currently deafened so that they could not see or hear anything.
"Uncle Lei Quan, didn't you say you will let decide this? So why are you trying to take control all of a sudden? Are you trying to slight or humiliate right now in front of everyone?" Lei Zhen asked with a smile that really wasn't much of a smile.
"I was rely thinking that you might still be too young to be handling these types of situations. Therefore, just let your uncle handle this situation for you while you take a rest and enjoy Butler Gongshun Ren's cuisine." Lei Quan responded swiftly.
"Nah, I'm already an adult so don't call young. In fact, you are the one getting older, so as an elderly, you should take a rest and let the younger generation handle it."
"Nephew Lei Zhen, that's not right. Uncle is still very vigorous."
"Seriously? I haven't seen any won in the mansion around and considering how you used to play with celebrities and hot babes before. I doubt you are that vigorous compared to the past."
