Chapter 83: The Mastermind

The person waiting for her in the living room was none other than Huangfu Ruiling who had spoken to her on the phone earlier. At this time, he was in the living room. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, he still looked elegant and handsome.
However, the person beside Huangfu Ruiling seemed to have changed and looked much colder than Li Yi. Even when he saw her, he had no reaction. Perhaps he only had eyes for his master.
Huangfu Ruiling did not respond to Ye Lengan’s complaint. Instead, he asked,
“Where have you been?”
It had been almost two and a half hours since she hung up the phone. It wouldn’t take her so long to walk back from that alley.
“I went out for a meal!” Ye Leng’an gave Huangfu Ruiling an odd look as if she was very confused about why he would ask such a question. “I originally planned to go out for dinner, but some people with no eyes blocked my way unexpectedly. By the way, have you dealt with those people?”
“Everything has been settled.” Huangfu Ruiling nodded. “Those five people are from a famous army of mercenaries in the world. However, they do not have a good reputation. They are famous for being greedy. As long as you offer a high price, they will help you deal with anyone. Their hands are stained with blood.”
“I know.” Ye Leng’an nodded. “I can tell that there is blood on their hands.
Therefore, I won’t regret killing them at all.”
“They deserve to be killed for offending you.”Huangfu Ruiling didn’t ask how Ye Leng’an knew that. Instead, he continued, “Do you want to know who hired them?”
“Look like you’ve found out.”
Ye Leng’an did not deliberately disguise herself in front of Huangfu Ruiling. She collapsed on the sofa and looked very lazy. “I was planning to investigate when I came back. Since you’ve already found out, then tell me! It also saves me the trouble of taxing my brains.”
It was not difficult for her to find out. As long as she checked who recently made money transactions with that group of people over the Internet, she would know it. It might be difficult for others, but for her, it was a piece of cake.
Huangfu Ruiling did not keep her in suspense and directly revealed the answer. “It’s a person called Zhang Hongguang. You should know him!”
Although Huangfu Ruiling was Ye Leng’an’s guardian in name, he did not purposefully check on Ye Leng’an. Moreover, he felt that Ye Leng’an didn’t like this method. So, he didn’t know much about who was present around her and what happened to her except for those he knew about after the investigation he did when he first met her.
“So it’s him!” Ye Leng’an didn’t look surprised at all. “Looks like I’ve touched his interests! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have hired these people to deal with me. However, he really thinks highly of me! In order to deal with a high school student like me, he asked the mercenaries for help.”
“Then what do you plan to do next?” Huangfu Ruiling asked, “Do you need my help?”
“No, I can handle such a small matter myself.” Ye Leng’an’s lips curled into a dangerous smile. “I know why he wanted to deal with me. Originally, he did not plan to make a move so quickly. Now, it seemed that the faster, the better!”
She didn’t have much interaction with Zhang Hongguang. The only issue where they intersected was her giving treatment to Chen Hailan. It seemed that the skills she showed off in the Zhang family made Zhang Hongguang scared! He feared that she would really cure Chen Hailan, so he wanted her to disappear from this world!
So, Chen Hailan’s sudden mental breakdown was related to Zhang Hongguang! Since Zhang Hongguang didn’t want her to cure Chen Hailan, she insisted on doing so.
Ye Leng’an did not care about Huangfu Ruiling who was present when thinking of this and made a phone call directly. “Mr. Chen, I’ve developed the antidote. See you at the Zhang family tomorrow morning at nine o’clock. Also, there is no need to tell the Zhang family. I’ll go over directly tomorrow.”
After that, she hung up the phone before Chen Kang could respond.
On the other end of the phone, Chen Kang didn’t have time to say anything before the call was hung up.
When he came back to his senses, he could not help but feel a surge of joy in his heart. His mood brightened.
“Dad, who called?” Chen Haichao watched his father pick up the phone.
Now that he saw his father in such a good mood, he was a little curious.
“Haichao, we’ll go to the Zhang family tomorrow.” Chen Kang tried hard to check his excitement and ordered, “Tomorrow morning at eight o’clock.”
“What’s wrong?” Chen Haichao was a little anxious after hearing that. “Dad, did something happen to Hailan again? Why don’t we go over and take a look now?”
When he heard that they were going to the Zhang family, the only thing that came to his mind was that there was some change in his sister’s condition..
