353: Chapter 353: End-of-Year Appreciation Banquet!
The red flag sedan drove all the way back to Rose Villa.
All along the way, Su Wanqiao was indignant, scolding Lin Shuang sternly.
Angered by this despicable man’s disrespect, Su Wanqiao was truly furious.
Lin Shuang, however, seemed unconcerned as he explained, “Didn’t I do this to help you get rid of that fly?
Did he dare to pursue you after we kissed?
It’s a good thing.”
Left speechless by his words, Su Wanqiao could only consider herself unlucky.
Even though her heart had been racing and her mind was in chaos when he kissed her,
The more she felt like this, the more worried she became.
She was afraid of falling.
She absolutely couldn’t have any relationship with Lin Shuang, not at all.
That was her bottom line.
And so Su Wanqiao was angry, vowing never to let Lin Shuang take advantage of her again.
After admonishing Lin Shuang, Su Wanqiao huffily slammed the car door and walked into the villa…
…
At one o’clock in the deep of night, Lin Shuang lay alone in the villa across the way, sleeping in bed.
Suddenly, a group of assassins dressed in night attire stealthily infiltrated Lin Shuang’s villa.
The assassins burst directly into Lin Shuang’s bedroom…
only to see the quilt on the bed bulging with the figure of Lin Shuang, apparently wrapped in the blanket, sleeping.
The assassins exchanged glances and then mercilessly opened fire on the bed!
All of them were equipped with guns fitted with silencers, and when they fired, there was no sound at all!
“Pff pff pff!” Countless bullets shot into the blanket…
but Lin Shuang wasn’t actually on the bed?
Underneath that bulging quilt was just a pillow?
The pupils of the assassins constricted!
Where was their target?!
“Looking for me?” Just then, a ghostly voice came from above their heads!
The dozen assassins looked up sharply, only to see their target, Lin Shuang, currently hanging from the top of the bedroom wall, one hand grasping a wall lamp overhead.
The faces of the assassins changed drastically, and they violently raised their guns.
“Pff pff pff!” But Lin Shuang was faster, and from his raised hand, he shot dozens of coins with explosive speed!
The coins pierced through the assassins’ wrists, and one by one, the guns fell to the ground.
The assassins’ faces changed again, and they tried to flee.
Lin Shuang raised his hand again, and dozens of coins pierced through the assassins’ knees, leaving a group of them kneeling on the ground, in abject misery.
Lin Shuang approached and began a fierce interrogation of the assassins.
“Who sent you?”
As Lin Shuang shattered the bones of the assassins one by one, they screamed in agony, wishing for death.
Finally, an assassin couldn’t bear it anymore and was about to confess.
But just as the assassin was about to speak, his eyes suddenly turned blood red, and with a “puff!” his head exploded!
Following that, the heads of the dozen or so assassins burst one after another in a series of self-detonations!
Before they could betray any information, the heads of those dozen assassins exploded, and they all died.
Lin Shuang’s expression was icy as he examined them and discovered that inside the skulls of each assassin, there had been nano-scale remote-controlled explosive devices implanted.
If they were captured and in danger, their master would press a remote control, triggering the explosives to detonate.
With all the assassins silenced, no information could be revealed.
“Hmm, interesting,” Lin Shuang murmured with a cold smirk on his lips.
Although the assassins had been silenced, he already had an idea of the prime suspect.
…
Meanwhile, late into the night in a super five-star hotel in Hai City,
Feng Chengqiao was angrily rebuking his son.
“Do you even have a brain?!
I told you not to overdo it!
This is still Hai City after all!
Our plan hasn’t even started yet, and you’ve already mobilized the assassin team?
What if we get discovered?!
Worthless fool!” Feng Chengqiao was so angry that he slapped his son several times.
Feng Shunzhi covered his cheeks, not daring to resist.
“Thank goodness I was quick to press the self-destruct remote, otherwise…
if those assassins revealed our identity, our whole plan would have fallen to pieces!” Feng Chengqiao cursed furiously.
“Dad…
I was wrong,” Feng Shunzhi said with a complex expression, apologizing with his head bowed.
“Tomorrow is Hai City’s annual meeting!
Remember, don’t stir up more trouble these few days!
Don’t give away our bottom line!
Even if you want to take action, wait until after the annual meeting is over!” Feng Chengqiao admonished angrily.
“Yes, I understand,” Feng Shunzhi replied with a nod, emotions swirling within him.
…
The next morning, Lin Shuang threw the corpses of these assassins out of his villa for Yang Feng and his men to dispose of.
Upon learning that Lin Shuang had been targeted for assassination last night, Su Wanqiao was also somewhat shocked.
“Do you know who did it?”
Lin Shuang shook his head.
“I don’t know, but you’d better be careful around Feng Chengqiao and his family; they are the most suspect.”
Su Wanqiao nodded, “Today is the business community’s annual meeting.
After tonight’s meeting, the Feng father and son should leave Hai City.”
“It’s still better to be wary of them,” Lin Shuang warned again.
…
In the morning, Su Wanqiao arrived at the company.
First thing in the morning, she received an invitation from the Hai City Tower.
Hai City Business Community Annual Meeting – Appreciation Banquet.
At the end of each year, the City Lord of Hai City invites entrepreneurs from all walks of business to gather together, to thank them for their hard work and contributions to the city’s construction and economy over the past year.
This is a tradition from years past.
Su Beicheng attended every year, and this year was no exception.
Only this time, it was his daughter, Su Wanqiao, who was attending in his stead.
