Xuanlong didn’t answer my question directly, just said blandly, “Miss Lin is very important to Fourth Brother”
I would forget it if Leon didn’t listen to my explanation. Howerer, Xuanlong as an onlooker, who was so calm, should see the thing clearly, why didn’t he believe me either? A little bit of anger rose up in my heart.
Do all these men can’t think properly when they see a beautiful woman with a delicate face?
“I know Miss Lin is quite important to Leon. It never occurred to me to deny their good old days either. But Brother Xuanlong, the past is the past and people can change. She is not a kind person. She uses every means to kick me away off the Hua family, and she even let people set fire.”
Xuanlong still drove silently, not in a hurry to make comments.
“Brother Xuanlong, you don’t believe me either?” I was really getting a little cranky.
“Nope. I’m just doing what I’m told. There are some things that I can’t judge.” Xuanlong said.
“Then if those people were to kill Leon, wouldn’t you have your judgment?” I asked angrily.
Xuanlong was also silent for a moment, “You said that Miss Lin was in league with that man. But why did she let that man attack fourth brother? What will she get by killing Fourth Brother?”
Actually, I hadn’t really thought about that.
That was actually what was bothering me too, and I had never been able to figure it out.
That day at the Hua family’s birthday banquet, if she had let that person bring me to Xiang Feng ‘s room to make the Hua family resent me, it would have made sense. But she had let the man attack Leon, which really did her no good.
“This one I haven’t figured out.” Just now something crossed my mind, “By the way, the two got into an argument at the clinic, so is there a possibility that the man attacked Leon, but she did not agree. Did the man do it in private, so the two of them got into an argument?”
“Since that man obeyed Nan Lin ‘s orders, then why did he privately attack fourth Brother?” Xuanlong asked me again.
I couldn’t answer that now. This question, I was afraid, was only known to that man and Nan Lin.
“All in all, I think this Miss Lin is weird. At first, she kept saying that she didn’t remember anything, but it was Leon who had to say that he knew her and wanted to approach her. But her actions were actually all about how to get close to Leon. She was constantly creating conflicts between me and Leon. Actually, Leon had old feelings for her, so she didn’t have to do this to get everything she wanted. However, she pretends not to remember anything. why on earth is that, I don’t understand.”
Xuanlong didn’t speak again. I was not sure if he was thinking about it or he didn’t care what I said.
After a long time, Xuanlong said, “when we catch this man, we can get the truth.”
“I know the man, I can recognize him.”
“I checked. The man did go to Hua’s Family and said he was looking for a job. The servants the Hua family had hired were all acquaintances, so they turned him down, but that day at the birthday banquet, he got a man’s suit to wear and disguised himself as a servant. So it’s possible to find him in the surveillance cameras that day, as long as he’s still in Hai City.”
When he said that, I was relieved.
This Nan Lin was too good at pretending. I wanted to catch that man right now and let him tell the whole truth, so that Leon would know Lan Lin’s true face.
Xuanlong sent me to the Maple Villa and drove out to run some errands.
Later in the evening, Xuanlong called me and said he wanted me to go somewhere. Then sent me a location.
That location I had been to was the West Station Cargo Depot.
Thinking that it might be related to the person who attacked Leon, I took a taxi and went to that address.
I got out of the car and called Xuanlong. He sent a man out to pick me up.
Entering the warehouse, I caught a glimpse of the injured man I had seen at the clinic.
Xuanlong was really efficient in his work. Today at noon he said that as long as he caught the man, everything would be clear. I didn’t expect him to do it so quickly.
The man was tied up and thrown to the ground. The gauze on the head came off in part and hung obliquely over the face. His face was pale, but his expression was very calm.
“Is it him?” Xuanlong asked.
“That’s him. I had ever seen him at Hua’s Family that day and at the clinic. He is the one who attacked Leon.”
Xuanlong then didn’t say anything more, just looked at his watch. He was supposed to be waiting for Leon.
After about half an hour, Leon’s car came. The people coming down from the car were not only Leon, but also Nan Lin.
I felt a surge of excitement. This time I could finally uncover Nan Lin’s true face. This time I would see how you pretend!
Leon took Nan Lin’s hand and walked over to the man, “If you tell the truth, I can keep you from being maimed.”
The man glanced at Leon, and his eyes were full of resentment. I could see that, and I was sure that Leon could see that too.
“You know me?” Leon asked.
The man didn’t speak, but ‘yuck’.
This action instantly angered Leon. As soon as he turned his head, he signaled the people below to carry the iron bars and then beat the man.
I observed Nan Lin’s expression, she was surprisingly calm, but her face was pale. She was very nervous.
She must have been terribly afraid of being known for what she had done. If Leon didn’t see that, he might have been blind that day.
The man was knocked unconscious by the beating, but was quickly awakened by the water.
“If you have a grudge against me, you can bring it up directly. I hate it when people sneak up on me.” Leon said coldly.
The man was also very stubborn and had been beaten to death. Surprisingly, he grunted coldly.
“Do you know her?” Leon suddenly pointed at Nan Lin.
Nan Lin ‘s face suddenly became even paler, and the corners of his mouth trembled faintly.
But the man didn’t speak.
“Walk closer to him and let him see you clearly.” Leon gestured to Nan Lin.
Nan Lin’s body trembled slightly, and she didn’t dare to disobey Leon’s words. She took two steps forward, moving a little closer.
The man raised his head and looked at Nan Lin’s delicate face. Suddenly he asked rhetorically, “Do you know me?”
Nan Lin’s voice shook as he spoke, “I don’t know you, I’ve never met you.”
“Nan Lin, you lied. In the clinic, you were with him. Then I found out and you tried to run me over with your car.” I said aloud.
“Shut up!” Leon yelled at me.
I had to close my mouth.
“I ask you again, do you know her? Just tell the truth, and then let you go. I’ll keep my word.” Leon said coldly.
The man stared at Nan Lin. His lips was moving without making a sound. He had a complex look on his face that I couldn’t read.
