Chapter 28 - 28 28 Using Another’s Knife to Kill

28: Chapter 28: Using Another’s Knife to Kill 28: Chapter 28: Using Another’s Knife to Kill On the way back to the villa, Li Ruyan said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, thank you for saving me.”

“Ruyan, no need to be so formal.

No matter how you look at it, I’m your boyfriend in name now,” Lin Fei laughed.

Li Ruyan was slightly startled; indeed, last night at the Li family, he was her boyfriend.

However, that was just to reject Zhao Wenxuan, a temporary “boyfriend.”

Thinking of the marriage contract she placed in the drawer, not handed over to her grandfather, Li Ruyan felt a slight anticipation.

What kind of woman does he like?

“By the way, Lin Fei, do you have a girlfriend?” Li Ruyan asked casually.

Lin Fei hadn’t expected Li Ruyan to suddenly ask this question, reminding him of his gorgeous yet uncontrollable senior sister.

“Ruyan, no, I don’t,” Lin Fei replied to Li Ruyan.

Li Ruyan felt an unexplainable ease and said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, don’t worry, you’re young and so skilled in medicine; there will be plenty of opportunities.”

“Thank you, Ruyan, for your praise.” Lin Fei changed the topic, asking Li Ruyan, “By the way, Ruyan, since Zhang Peng is your husband’s brother, why is he trying to wrestle your company and assets away?”

Li Ruyan said, “My husband Zhang Zheng and his brother Zhang Peng have always been at odds.

Zhang Peng dropped out before finishing high school and later joined the notoriously illegal Cyan Dragon Group in Huadu.

After Zhang Zheng passed away in a car accident, Zhang Peng began eyeing my company and assets.

We even went to court over this, but since the registered legal representative of the company was me, and Zhang Zheng also left a will designating all company assets to me, Zhang Peng lost several lawsuits against me.

But he wouldn’t give up.

When he couldn’t win in court, he resorted to sinister means, bribing my bodyguards to try and kill me, threatening me with phone calls, secretly copying my elevator key, sparing no effort.

If you hadn’t come back to the company with me today, I dread to think of the consequences.”

Li Ruyan’s eyes showed indescribable anger.

“Ruyan, not that I want to alarm you, but since Zhang Peng is part of the underworld, he’s unlikely to give up easily,” Lin Fei said, slightly frowning, cautioning Li Ruyan.

“Lin Fei, thank you for the reminder, I will be careful,” Li Ruyan said gratefully.

Night fell.

In a villa, Zhao Wenxuan and an elder sat in the study.

The elder, around sixty years old, had piercing eyes and a deep aura.

This elder was Zhao Wenxuan’s grandfather, Zhao Qingming, renowned as the top physician in Huadu.

“Wenxuan, how are things going between you and Li Yunde’s granddaughter, Li Ruyan?” Zhao Qingming asked after sipping his tea.

Zhao Wenxuan slightly furrowed his brow and said, “Grandfather, there has been no progress, and Li Ruyan has returned from Tianfu City with a boyfriend.”

“A boyfriend?” Zhao Qingming couldn’t help but be startled.

“Hasn’t Li Ruyan been rejecting all the suitors from Huadu since Zhang Zheng died?

How come she suddenly has a boyfriend?”

Zhao Wenxuan said, “I didn’t believe it either, but upon observing, he genuinely is her boyfriend.”

“So what’s her boyfriend’s background?” Zhao Qingming asked.

Zhao Wenxuan said, “Grandfather, Ruyan’s beau is named Lin Fei, who she brought back from Kunlun Mountain on her trip to Tianfu City.

His background is unknown, but his acupuncture skills are quite impressive.”

Then he recounted the incident where he lost a bet against Lin Fei in treating Madam Li.

After listening to Zhao Wenxuan’s account, Zhao Qingming’s face turned somber, saying, “From your description, this Lin Fei’s medical skills surpass yours.

Given time, he will surely gain fame in the medical world and could become a threat to our Zhao family, especially since he’s Li Ruyan’s boyfriend, potentially affecting our plan to annex the Li family.”

“Grandfather, although this man has excellent medical skills, he has no backing.

I’ve already instructed Leng Feng to eliminate him at the right moment, ensuring he has no chance,” Zhao Wenxuan said sinisterly.

“Hmm, that’s good.

Wenxuan, you must marry Li Ruyan quickly to gain control over the Li family and their pharmaceutical company.

This will allow our Zhao family to dominate the medication and healthcare market in Huadu, making us truly one of the top ten noble families in Huadu,” Zhao Qingming advised sincerely.

Zhao Wenxuan promptly said, “Grandfather, I will certainly complete your plan.

At this moment, someone knocked on the study door: “Old master, young master, Leng Feng has something to report.”

Zhao Qingming and Zhao Wenxuan exchanged a glance.

Zhao Qingming nodded slightly at his grandson, signaling him to let him in.

Zhao Wenxuan said, “Come in.”

The door opened, and the cold and stern-looking Leng Feng walked into the study.

“Leng Feng, what do you need to say?” Zhao Wenxuan asked, looking at Leng Feng.

“Young master, today Zhang Peng took a few of his subordinates to Li Ruyan’s office, trying to force her to hand over company shares.

However, they ended up being taken away by the police,” Leng Feng said.

Zhao Wenxuan frowned, confused, “Zhang Peng, being from Cyan Dragon Group, is ruthless and cunning.

How could he be reckless enough to barge into someone’s company for extortion and end up in police custody?”

“Young master, upon investigation, Zhang Peng and his subordinates entered her office from Li Ruyan’s private elevator.

Initially, his plan seemed foolproof, but for some reason, they failed.

Moreover, it’s known that when the company security rushed into the office, only Lin Fei and Li Ruyan were together.”

Zhao Wenxuan couldn’t help but wonder, “Could it be that Zhang Peng and his subordinates failed due to Lin Fei, although he supposedly doesn’t know martial arts?”

“Wenxuan, appearances can be deceiving.

This Lin Fei is likely hiding depths.

Be extra cautious,” Zhao Qingming advised his grandson.

Zhao Wenxuan immediately said, “Yes, grandfather.”

Then he carefully asked his grandfather, “Grandfather, do you have any ideas on dealing with Lin Fei?”

Zhao Qingming picked up the teacup from the table, took a sip, and then spoke with wisdom, “Inform Zhang Chun to get Zhang Peng out, and let the desperado eliminate Lin Fei for us.”

Zhao Wenxuan’s eyes lit up instantly, “Grandfather, are you using a borrowed blade?”

Zhao Qingming nodded, “Indeed, this way we can avoid involvement and still eliminate the rival.”

“Grandfather is truly wise!”
