At this mont, footsteps echoed from the doorway as Wu Xiong quickly walked into the room.
Hong Ling stood up and rushed into Wu Xiong's embrace the mont the door opened.
Just a mont ago, Hong Ling was clamoring to kill Wu Xiong, but in the blink of an eye, she beca as reliant as a little bird.
"Brother Xiong, you finally ca. I was worried sick."
Wu Xiong looked at the woman in his arms, feelings within him a tumultuous mix.
For this woman, he betrayed his own beliefs and now ended up in such a predicant.
The most important thing is, he was constantly deceived by this woman.
However, Wu Xiong still wore a doting smile on his face. He patted Hong Ling's shoulder and said, "Silly girl, everything's fine."
"Brother Xiong, we can finally be together forever." Hong Ling said tenderly.
Wu Xiong nodded, "Yes, soon we will be together forever."
Just then, Qin An approached with a cheerful smile, "Alright, you'll have plenty of ti to reminisce later. By the way, is Zhang Tian dead?"
"Of course, he is. That kid Lin Chen is really cunning and kept a close watch on Zhang Tian. I had to go through quite so trouble to kill that kid." Wu Xiong nodded.
"How did he die?" Qin An's eyes shifted slightly as he asked.
Clearly, he was not entirely convinced of Wu Xiong's account, as until now he hadn't received any reports of Zhang Tian's death.
Wu Xiong chuckled and said, "I sneaked into the kitchen and poisoned his prison food. After eating, he bled from all orifices and died."
"So that's it. Your thod is indeed brilliant, completely imperceptible." Qin An exhaled a sigh of relief.
With Zhang Tian's death, the Qin family got rid of a significant threat, and Wu Xiong before him would soon turn into a cold corpse, finally bringing this matter to an end.
Wu Xiong looked at Qin An with a cold smile, "I've killed the person. You should fulfill your promise now. This incident has greatly angered Lin Chen, and he's already investigating and I suspect he'll soon trace it back to , so I must leave imdiately."
Qin An smiled and said, "Don't worry, only when you leave will we be at ease. If you get caught, it would do us no good. I've brought the person for you, the paperwork is being processed, and you should be able to leave the country soon."
Wu Xiong gave a cold sneer. When entering the restaurant, he noticed quite a few Qin family assassins lying in ambush at the entrance. Indeed, the Qin family intended to send him away, but not without taking his life.
At this mont, Hong Ling smiled warmly, "Wu Xiong, rest assured, the Family Head has already transferred the money to your overseas bank account. We can live like an immortal couple for the rest of our lives."
Listening to this sweet lie, Wu Xiong couldn't help but smile bitterly inside.
Suddenly, Qin An seed to rember sothing and hurriedly asked, "Wu Xiong, you said Zhang Tian ntioned sothing he shouldn't have. What exactly did he say?"
Wu Xiong leaned back on the sofa and sighed, "Manager Qin, your Qin family has gotten into big trouble this ti. I must leave China imdiately, the sooner the better—I don't want to get caught up in this whirlpool."
Qin An's heart tightened upon hearing this. Wu Xiong's urgent desire to leave clearly indicated that this matter was very serious.
After all, the Qin family and Wu Xiong were in the sa boat. If sothing happened to the Qin family, Wu Xiong would et a miserable end.
To be honest, Wu Xiong was very clever. The more he expressed his eagerness to leave, the more it made Qin An nervous.
"Rest assured, by tomorrow at the latest, I'll have a passport sent to you. There will be soone to et you on the other side, and the money is prepared. What exactly is it that makes a group leader of Xi Cheng's Dragon Team so anxious?"
Qin An, an experienced old hand, hid his nervousness with an indifferent expression.
Wu Xiong nodded and replied, "Perhaps this matter won't seem significant to the Qin family, but Zhang Tian once secretly captured soone from the Dark Alliance. He obtained intel from them, saying the Qin family is linked with the Dark Alliance. To stay alive, that person spilled the beans."
"What did you say?" Qin An's expression changed.
Feigning displeasure, Wu Xiong said, "Old An, I didn't know the Qin family was so audacious. Do you know what kind of organization the Dark Alliance is? They're on the leadership's radar here. Once involved with them, no matter how powerful you are, you'll be shattered to pieces."
"What? That's impossible. Our connection with the Dark Alliance is through a single line with the Family Head to the Fourth Prince's covert connection. How could it leak?" Qin An's face turned grim.
Upon hearing Qin An's words, Wu Xiong's face bore a cold smile.
Regarding the connection between the Dark Alliance and the Qin family, Wu Xiong wasn't aware; these claims were orchestrated by Lin Chen, and Lin Chen hit the nail on the head—the Qin family indeed had a dark side.
"Nothing is impossible. There are no walls in the world completely without leaks. If that Dark Alliance contact knew of this, their contact must have told soone, which is how the ssage leaked." Wu Xiong said coldly.
Qin An fell silent. What Wu Xiong said wasn't entirely unreasonable.
After all, they didn't know much about the Dark Alliance. Who knew whether the mysterious Fourth Prince told a confidant, who then leaked it?
Now that the ssage had leaked, it served as the best evidence.
Seeing Qin An's grim face, a cold smile played at the corner of Wu Xiong's mouth. Clearly, this information was a significant threat to the Qin family.
Wu Xiong seized the opportunity, "Lin Chen is very concerned about this intel and has been discreetly investigating your Qin family. If they find out that you conspired with the Dark Alliance to annihilate a Dragon Team elite unit, you understand the consequences. No matter how strong the Qin family's background is, I believe no one can save you. The higher-ups in China despise such matters."
Hearing this, Qin An's body trembled slightly, for he understood the gravity of the situation better than Wu Xiong.
If Lin Chen uncovered anything, it would be a catastrophic blow to the Qin family.
The Qin family's mysterious plan was already at a critical stage, and one slip would render all efforts futile.
Putting on a concerned look, Wu Xiong continued, "Old An, I've told you the situation. Maybe it's nothing to the Qin family, but I find it incredibly serious. After all, your well-being affects us all, and I don't want the previous events to leak out. I hope the Qin family can handle this properly."
Qin An nodded, "Rest assured, since we're prepared, Lin Chen won't find anything."
Though he spoke nonchalantly, Qin An was secretly grateful that Wu Xiong had warned him ahead of ti—without it, the Qin family might have been caught off-guard.
"Good, then. I still say you should expedite my emigration paperwork, I need to leave imdiately." Wu Xiong said urgently.
It must be said, Wu Xiong was an exceptional spy, acting flawlessly, which only reinforced Qin An's belief in the authenticity of Wu Xiong's information. After all, finding out that the Qin family faced such imnse trouble and wanting to leave urgently made perfect sense.
After thinking for a mont, Qin An suddenly said, "Brother Wu, I will report this to the Family Head. Could you return to gather more intel for ?"
Wu Xiong nodded, "Alright, but my ti is limited, we must hurry."
As he spoke, Wu Xiong was about to pick up the coffee on the table to drink, but Qin An snatched it away, "The coffee's cold, Hong Ling, quickly get Mr. Wu a new cup."
