Capítulo 1141: Chapter 1141: Let Say a Few Words Too [Part 2]
After all, she has a grandfather skilled in refining.
Therefore, inheriting this talent makes sense.
Tang Li understood what Li Ruan ant: “You want to get close to Isa?”
Li Ruan didn’t deny her guess.
Monts later, he continued, “The current Pri Minister of Siase, Hong Tai, shares so political views with Li Hao. In recent years, he has been committed to resolving the heroin smuggling issue in Northern Siase.”
Country S is also conducting anti-drug operations, but their efforts don’t reach within Siase territory.
Tang Li doesn’t follow international news much, yet she knows that societal conflicts in Siase are severe, making it difficult for the country to unite.
If Siase were like Country S, their borders wouldn’t have rampant white powder smuggling.
Seeing Tang Li not respond, Li Ruan continued: “Currently, Isa is under the protection of local ard forces in Nanwa. In recent years, he has delegated the white powder trade to a few of his subordinates, almost entirely stepping back except for checking the accounts once every half-month.”
As the mastermind, Isa is contemplating retreating into the shadows.
Apparently, he has sensed so dangerous signals.
“With the economic developnt of Southeast Asian countries, the tolerance for heroin will decrease,” Li Ruan explained, “Especially in Country S, since Song Baiyan took office, he intends to assist neighboring countries. However, the prerequisite is that no country should support heroin trafficking and must actively conduct dostic anti-drug operations.”
“Last year, Isa would still visit his factories in Shan State; this year, he hasn’t set foot outside Nanwa State.”
The current President of Country S, Song Baiyan, is unprecedentedly strict against drugs. Before the election in Country S, Kun ntioned that Isa ordered them to act discreetly in the next ten years, minimizing the transport of white powder to Country S.”
After Isa left Shan State, Kun beca the actual ruler of the village.
Holding the two thousand ard forces left by Isa and making a fortune daily in business, Li Ruan can say he has witnessed Kun’s gradual expansion.
Therefore, when Isa warned him to act cautiously, not only did Kun ignore him, but he also felt that as Isa aged, he began to fear for his life, losing the spirit of conquering the realm together as in the past.
Tang Li and Song Baiyan’s relationship, Li Ruan was already aware of.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sought her out here.
If it weren’t for Kun’s slip, revealing Tang Li married the current President of Country S, he wouldn’t have followed Hong Tai on the visit.
As he went to the hall as Hong Tai’s guard, he saw Song Baiyan from afar, and at that fleeting instant, he recognized him as ‘Wu Jing’ from the village.
Even though ‘Wu Jing’ wore a mask then, hiding his face, a person’s eyes and subtle gestures in deanor can’t deceive others.
He didn’t expect Song Baiyan to personally travel to Northern Myanmar for a rescue.
Fearing being recognized by Song Baiyan, he notified Hong Tai and then opted to leave.
After that, he began probing Tang Li’s whereabouts.
Li Ruan looked at the exposed cousin in front of him and eased his expression a bit: “In fact, your great-uncle really wants to et you.”
For Li Hao, Tang Li is his only kin now.
Tang Li looked back at him: “But isn’t now the right ti, is it?”
Li Ruan was silent.
Monts passed—
“To clear the nas of Li Shen and Li Chengyu is his lifelong obsession.”
Tang Li asked him again, “So, going to the Golden Triangle was his order?”
Li Ruan admitted.
It was indeed like that.
The Li Family, though ethnic Chinese, holds imnse wealth in Siase. Among generations of the Li Family, countless have joined politics or military, based on their powerful family cohesion.
When Li Hao instructed him to go undercover beside Kun, neither he nor his parents questioned this decision.
As a Li Family mber, having enjoyed the family’s privileges naturally ans stepping up when the family needs you.
However, Tang Li never grew up within the Li Family.
Thus, she and he are different.
This sense of family honor might be sothing Tang Li can’t empathize with.
Because of her inability to empathize, Tang Li can remain so calm and piercing.
“If not , it would be another Li Family mber.”
Li Ruan answered Tang Li: “The Li Family has carried infamy for twenty years, plus those twenty-one wrongful deaths. Soone should pay for them.”
ntioning Tang Shen, Tang Li fell silent.
Regardless of her past life or this one, her lineage issue has always been a shackle on her.
Even all these days, she’s been worrying about what would happen if her lineage was exposed.
Now she is told her grandfather is actually a good person.
And her grandfather’s family has been devising ways to clear his na.
Tang Li spoke: “I don’t know how to refine; even if I got close to Isa, I couldn’t deceive him for long.”
Li Ruan replied: “Don’t need to last long, just one month.”
“With Isa hiding in Nanwa, he continuously receives protection from local ard forces. To successfully capture Isa, drawing him out of Nanwa territory is essential.”
Li Ruan added, “Isa’s parents lived in Southern Shan State during their lifeti and were buried there after death. Southern Shan State borders Siase and is a region mixed with various ard forces. Every October, Isa visits the graves, and this year will be no exception.”
“Among the local ard forces, one has been sponsored by the Li Family for over ten years. They agreed to cooperate with the related capture operation on Isa’s tomb-sweeping day.”
In her previous life, Isa was extradited to Country S.
And it happened years later.
Then, Li Ruan’s ntioned action must have failed.
“Isa has a lover who is Chinese, and she has been with him for over ten years. It is said she learned accounting and manages many of Isa’s business accounts.”
Li Hao wants Tang Li to get close to that lover.
Then, obtain the ledger held by that person.
Once Isa is captured, the ledger will serve as evidence of his cris.
Tang Li thought of another issue—
“If you fail to capture Isa, will I be trapped in Nanwa?”
“There won’t be such an accident.” Li Ruan assured: “I will personally participate in that action; Siase has arranged the most elite capture team.”
As he finished speaking, his expression turned sharply, and he pressed the switch for the hallway light.
Suddenly, the guest room plunged into pitch darkness.
Tang Li was about to speak, but her mouth was covered, and Li Ruan whispered: “Soone’s coming.”
Upon saying this, he released Tang Li and headed for the balcony.
In the blink of an eye, the window opened, and Li Ruan disappeared without a trace.
Almost at the sa ti, the guest room door was knocked.
Tang Li opened the door, and the visitor was Yuan Qin.
Seeing her unhard and unflustered, Yuan Qin withdrew his hand placed behind him, then pulled out his cellphone, dialing a number. Tang Li stood by the door, watching Yuan Qin report the situation to the person on the other end.
A familiar male voice faintly leaked from the receiver, making Tang Li grip the door fra, recalling what Ruan said earlier.
The concerns she initially had in her heart began to fade.
Just as Yuan Qin was about to hang up, Tang Li extended her hand: “Let say a few words too.”
Yuan Qin: “…”
