Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Don’t Owe 6_1

"What is it?" Chen Yun picked up the phone with a hint of impatience, "I’m damn busy right now!"

"Talking to me with this kind of attitude, are you asking for a fist to the face?" Lin Chan retorted.

"A beating? Let’s see if you, Lin Chan, can beat me first." Chen Yun laughed dismissively. Annoying Lin Chan improved his mood, "With your scrawny physique, I’m worried that one day you won’t even be able to control Lin Deng!"

"What do you know? This is called ’thinly-dressed but meaty when undressed’!" Lin Chan felt embarrassed by Chen Yun’s mockery. He thought to himself that he should really hit the gym when he had some downtime.

Chen Yun scoffed, "You have meat on your bones? More like a rack of pork ribs, right? Get to the point, I don’t have time to get into an argument with you."

"Yes, yes! Let’s get to the point!" Lin Chan responded and continued, "How’s your investigation on Zhou Hongjin? Any leads? Have you identified the truck driver yet?"

"Damn it, Lin Chan, did you call just to mess with me?" Chen Yun glanced at a man who was pummeling next to him, so battered that he was screaming out in pain. "He’s as tough as nails, won’t say a word. Why are you suddenly interested in this case?"

"Isn’t it because of our dearest Zhilan? She said this case might be connected to Gu En. Gu En probably used a middleman to get in touch with this driver, then ordered the driver to kill Zhou Hongjin and He Zhilan on their way to Gu Mansion." Lin Chan said, "You have to get the middleman’s identity from this driver. If that’s not possible, bribe him to point directly at Gu En."

"Again, it’s linked with Gu En?" Chen Yun was genuinely shocked, "So the killer isn’t a first-time offender? It seems the method of his first crime was much more sophisticated than the second!"

"Most likely, he failed the first time and out of desperation, there was a second attempt," Lin Chan said, "You managed to pull back the charges against Gu En concerning his failed attempt to poison He Zhilan to death. He Zhilan agreed not to pursue the matter with the Gu Family, but she asked you to discreetly look into Zhou Hongjin’s case. According her analysis, it’s definitely related to Gu En."

On the other end, Chen Yun was flabbergasted, "What? Pulling back the charges? Why? We had both the motive and the evidence, we were just waiting to send Gu En to court once he’s discharged from the hospital, and now we’re backing off?"

"Drop by the hospital when you have time and we’ll explain it to you in detail," Lin Chan said, "If the Gu family asks about it, just tell them the charges have been dropped and don’t say anything else. Don’t give the Gu family anything to suspect."

Chen Yun agreed. Before he left, he made sure the guards would watch the truck driver closely. He forbade anyone from contacting the driver until he returned. Then he rushed off to the hospital.

By the time Chen Yun arrived at the hospital, more than half an hour had passed. When he arrived, he saw Lin Chan dutifully peeling fruit for He Zhilan. Seeing Lin Chan, the playboy, do such work was a rare sight. He managed to make an apple look like the crater-filled surface of the moon.

"Look at you, Young Master Chan, you’re neither much of a fighter nor adept at peeling fruit. How the hell have you managed to survive in this world?" Chen Yun walked in, ridiculing Lin Chan. Lin Chan looked over at him, Chen Yun snatched the apple from his hand, which looked like the surface of the moon, and took a bite, "But not bad, the fruit you choose is sweet! Really, your only talent is your good taste."
