Chapter 1350 - 1350: Can't Take a Single Good Word

"How could this happen?"

In the Dong Group office building, Dong Min, who had practically taken up residence in the office these days, couldn't help but utter a light query.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking into the distance, Dong Ziqiang turned around with a smile and said, "Bai Huanyu won't be out for the next few years, all his supporters have turned to us.

Now only Xiao Feng is left, struggling alone, isn't this exactly what we wanted?

If you ask me, this is our Dong family's ancestors watching over us from above. We should take the time to go home and pay respects to our ancestors in the shrine."

Dong Min frowned slightly, automatically ignoring the last sentence, exhaled a long breath and said, "These are indeed good things, but too many good things may not necessarily be good.

Perhaps my worries are somewhat unnecessary, but they are certainly not unwarranted!"

"Xiaomin, you might be too tired lately. Once this is all over, you should go on a vacation and relax." Dong Ziqiang said.

In his view, his daughter was being overly cautious.

Being careful is a good thing, but being too cautious makes it easy to hesitate and miss opportunities.

Dong Min took off her round-frame glasses, and her entire aura seemed to change from being cultured and reasonable to strong and sharp.

She took a deep breath and said, "If you were planning something, wouldn't you be considering the potential failure or exposure beforehand?"

"Of course."

"Then Bai Huanyu is the same. I've watched the videos released by the police, and those passersby, nine times out of ten, are actors he arranged.

How could it be that with all these arrangements, someone just happened to capture it from a high point?"

Dong Ziqiang retorted, "No plan is perfect, even the most meticulous plan can have unforeseen circumstances.

You wouldn't be saying that Bai Huanyu intentionally got someone to film it and then intentionally release it to convict himself, would you?"

"I didn't say that, but every step we take next, we have to think it over several times."

At this point, there seemed to be a subtle smoke of gunpowder in the air.

Dong Ziqiang sighed and said, "Facts are more reliable than speculation. Whether it's a coincidence or intentional, Bai Huanyu is already a lost cause."

"I mentioned before that Bai Huanyu was trying to intimidate us in a roundabout way. What if he becomes desperate and starts biting randomly, what will we do then?" Dong Min said, somewhat indignantly.

She felt it was baffling. She was just expressing some concerns, how did it escalate to a near argument?

Dong Ziqiang remained silent for a while, his tone slightly softened: "What you said is possible, but the probability is very small.

At least if I were Bai Huanyu, I wouldn't choose to lash out randomly."

"Why?"

"Because I have a wife and daughter, and since I'm already in a predicament, why drag my family into it out of a moment of anger?"

Dong Min sighed inwardly, knowing that further debate would lead nowhere, she changed the topic, "So your plan is to proceed as planned?"

"That's right." Dong Ziqiang paced slowly, "Now it's just Xiao Feng left. Even if Chang Wenhua and Wang Lubo firmly stand behind him, it won't have much impact on us.

I think, not only should the plan stay unchanged, but we should move it forward as much as possible!

If you want to achieve something great, you have to have courage. This could be seen as gambling, it's possible to lose, but if you want to win, you have to gamble!"

"There's a saying that often..."

"No need to say it!" Dong Ziqiang decisively interrupted, "You go home and rest for a couple of days, let me deal with the affairs in Jiangcheng these two days, and you accompany your mother."

Dong Min took several deep breaths, feeling an urge to lash out each time, but eventually, she just put her glasses back on and walked towards the door.

Before leaving, she turned to look at the word 'win' on the wall, suddenly feeling that the word began to slowly distort, gradually becoming... 'lose'!

But the Dong family really cannot afford to lose!

...

Xiao Feng naturally did not know that the Dong family had changed its leader.

However, even if he knew, he wouldn't think much of it.

It doesn't matter who, he would just counter every move.

Just as he was about to head to the basement to see Lu Lishuang, Hua Ling's call came through.

Xiao Feng's heart tightened, he answered immediately and asked anxiously, "Don't tell me Ma Yuliang is gone."

Hua Ling paused, then replied with annoyance, "What's gone, I'm calling to tell you that the brigade leader is out of danger and has been transferred to the general ward."

"That's good, that's good then!" Xiao Feng said with a sense of relief.

After a few more casual exchanges, they hung up.

Xiao Feng hesitated for a moment, then called Ma Yuliang.

The call connected quickly, but it took about ten seconds before Ma Yuliang's weak voice came through, "Did you call to check if I'm dead?"

"I'm beginning to suspect you're acting; just a few words of praise and compliments, and you've ended up like this?"

"If you're calling to flatter me again, you'd better hang up now, I plan on living a few more years."

Xiao Feng dropped the jokes and got to the point, "I want to ask you, does Lu Lishuang have any weaknesses?"

"Weaknesses?" Ma Yuliang paused, then replied, "To be honest, from childhood until now, I really haven't noticed any weaknesses she has.

However..."

Xiao Feng's eyes showed anticipation, and he pressed, "However what?"

"I remember the year we adopted her, I locked her out of the house, and she cried all night," Ma Yuliang said gravely, "That's the only time she cried, so I remember it very clearly."

"Besides that, nothing else?"

"Uh... I can't think of anything else off the top of my head."

Xiao Feng shook his head, changed the subject and asked, "When you speak, can she hear you?"

"Depends on what you say and how you say it."

"So, Lu Lishuang doesn't necessarily listen to you?"

"Of course not!"

"..." Xiao Feng.

The tone, why does it sound somewhat proud?

Despite being speechless, the conversation had to continue.

Xiao Feng pondered, "How did you get her to come to Jiangcheng this time?"

"I just told her there are many opportunities for murder and arson there, and she agreed without hesitation."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple!"

Xiao Feng nodded slowly, although it sounded a bit absurd, he ultimately found a new lead.

"Alright, I have nothing else, just wishing you a speedy recov..."

Before he could finish the word 'recovery,' he heard Ma Yuliang's heavy breathing and the urgent sound of alarms through the phone.

"Beep beep beep beep beep..."

A moment later, a nurse's anxious shout came through, "Quickly notify Dr. Lin, prepare for emergency resuscitation."

"..." Xiao Feng.

This is too ridiculous!

I was just wishing for a quick recovery,

Is it really that intolerant of good words?
