红叶睁开眼睛,惊讶地发现自己居然在屋顶上睡着了,睡了好几个小时.她环顾四周,希望能欣赏到美丽的景色.突然,她注意到别墅周围有一些来历不明的人.他们悄悄地接近别墅,动作很快.令她惊恐的是,宏叶看到别墅周围的十几名守卫瞬间被拿下.她急忙下楼通知李子峰等人,却发现天台的门是锁着的.大概是某个仆人看到了那扇敞开的门,随便锁上了门.
宏业越来越焦虑.她冲向别墅的屋顶墙.就在她准备大声警告时,她看到吕修,蓝梅,青兰,领着几个人,护送李子枫父子,向大门冲去.在打倒了几个蒙面暴徒后,领头的暴徒抓起一把短刀,从中间直接冲了进去.一阵快速的冲突和分离,除了李子枫父子外,吕修等人全部遇难.一回合,四金花三人和四名侍卫全部死去.红叶看着吕修等人不断流出的鲜血,感到头晕目眩.然后,她听到了"砰"的一声.楼下传来了巨大的震动,她隐约听到一个声音喊道:"快,把其他的尸体抬上车!
楚天在长福花园别墅睡了一整个下午.醒来时,梅姐已经准备了满桌美味佳肴:东坡肉,蛋羹蒸鲈,红烧全鸡,鲜山药,豆腐棒,炖鱼头,冬瓜丸汤,宫保虾丸,甜豆沙红薯饼,还有一盘林玉婷烹制的炒青菜.林玉婷喋喋不休,夸奖梅姐.显然,她很期待在梅姐的指导下烹制的青菜.她身边的海子和光子吞咽着口水,看起来如此渴望,似乎已经很久很久没有见过如此丰盛的家常饭菜了.
梅姐很体贴.她从厨房拿来一瓶酒,给大家倒了一点,说:"好冷.喝点酒可以让你暖和起来.
海子深叹一口气,对楚天说道:"谁娶了梅姐这样的女人,连拥有一个王国都不在乎.
林玉婷抬起了她那张俏脸蛋.光子见状,连忙道:"当然,谁娶了美丽的玉婷小姐在这里,连拥有整个世界都不在乎.
楚天忍不住笑了起来.显然,海子和光子都被林玉婷逼得有点疯狂,因此对她如此宠爱.
梅姐用纸巾擦了擦手,笑道:"别开玩笑了,大家.我们吃饭吧.外面冷的时候很容易变冷.
楚天等人很快就找到了自己的座位,像狼一样扑向美味的食物.林玉婷若有所思,拿起一筷子青菜给楚天说:"楚天,这是我煮的青菜.试试看.
楚天又有种不好的预感,敷衍道:"先放进碗里.我待会儿再吃.
林玉婷显然不会放过楚天.她说:"现在吃吧.天气变冷时味道不会很好.
海子和光子偷偷露出一个几乎不引人注意的幸灾乐祸的笑容.楚天自然不会放过这两人.他说:"好,好,我吃.但只让我吃东西是不公平的.海哥和光哥也应该有同样的待遇.
林玉婷似乎突然明白了.她微笑着,为海子和光子挑选了一些蔬菜.海子和光子一脸无奈,却没有马上吃东西.他们看着楚天,显然是把他当成了小白鼠.
楚天再也逃不掉了.他假装很享受,咬了一口.他立刻放下筷子,大喊道:"有人,把刀拿来!有人,把刀拿来!
林玉婷装作生气说道:"我煮的青菜有那么难吃吗?梅姐亲自指导我.
Sister Mei smiled but didn't comment. Instead, she asked Chu Tian, "Brother, what do you mean by shouting 'bring the knife' just now?"
Chu Tian endured Lin Yuting's "angry glare" and told the story again. Haizi and Guangzi burst out laughing, and Sister Mei covered her lips with her hand.
Lin Yuting started to be persistent. She knocked on the bowl with her chopsticks and said, "Brother Hai, Brother Guang, you should also try it. Chu Tian's judgment is unfair."
"What? We have to try it too?" Haizi and Guangzi were like they had been electrocuted. But looking at Lin Yuting's eyes, they could only take a bite.
"Someone, bring the knife! Someone, bring the knife!" Haizi and Guangzi shouted simultaneously.
Lin Yuting's face turned pale. She said pitifully, "Is it really that bad?"
Sister Mei picked up a mouthful and ate the whole thing. She said, "Brother, you guys are so mean, bullying Yuting like this."
Chu Tian, Haizi, and Guangzi's faces suddenly lit up. They said to Lin Yuting, "Yuting, we tricked you. The greens are really good."
Lin Yuting laughed and went to hit Chu Tian, who was the mastermind. Chu Tian laughed and dodged. The whole dining room was filled with a lively atmosphere.
"Ding - ding - ding" Chu Tian's phone rang. The harsh ringtone shattered the warm atmosphere in the dining room. Everyone had a bad feeling in that instant.
"Li Zifeng and his son are dead!" Lin Yuqing's words came through clearly and briefly.
"What? Li Zifeng and his son are dead?" Chu Tian couldn't help but repeat Lin Yuqing's words. Haizi and the others all stopped their actions and showed shocked expressions. The arrogant Li Zifeng, who could make the city tremble with a stomp of his foot, was actually dead?
"Yes, they committed suicide by gas in their home this afternoon." Lin Yuqing replied a bit dejectedly and even cursed with a vulgar word he hadn't used in years. "Damn it! We just got confessions from Niu Kun, Liu Dayong, and the others. All the evidence pointed to Li Zifeng. Just as we were about to secretly arrest Li Zifeng for investigation, he actually committed suicide with his son out of fear of guilt."
Chu Tian put down the phone. He had a thought. He felt that things weren't that simple. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its cubs. No matter how despicable Li Zifeng was, he wouldn't kill his son Li Jian and himself. But he didn't have any evidence to prove that this was unusual. Chu Tian mocked himself in his heart: What evidence could there be to prove that Li Zifeng was murdered? Besides, Li Zifeng could hire killers like the "On - duty Doctor" and the "Chief Surgeon". How could he be so easily killed by others? And who would want to kill Li Zifeng? Why?
Chu Tian suddenly realized that if Li Zifeng wasn't a suicide, there were really a lot of questions. So, suicide seemed to be the easiest way to end the matter. Suicide out of fear of guilt, the case is closed, and everyone is happy. What's more, this matter had little to do with him, Chu Tian. Since Li Zifeng's final outcome was like this, let Lin Yuqing handle the aftermath. At this moment, what Chu Tian was thinking about was the pitiful Hongye. Where was this woman now? What kind of state would she be in after hearing about Li Zifeng's end?
Chu Tian told Haizi and the others what Lin Yuqing had said. Everyone felt a bit depressed. It wasn't because they were sorry that Li Zifeng didn't get punished, but because they felt that such an influential person had come to such an end. It really seemed like karma. Everyone felt that life was so fragile. The arrogant person from yesterday had vanished today.
Chu Tian organized his thoughts and said to Haizi, "Brother Hai, I'm afraid you can't develop in this city for the time being. You and Brother Guang should quickly take people back to Shanghai."
Haizi looked at Chu Tian in confusion and asked, "Why? What does Li Zifeng's death have to do with us?"
Chu Tian shook his head and said, "Brother Hai, Li Zifeng's death is a huge bombshell. Whether he's dead or not, the fact that he used his power to break the law has been established. After Lin Yuqing finishes handling the aftermath, he will definitely report it to the higher - ups. When the central government sees that Li Zifeng had connections with the underworld and considering his death, they will surely be angry at the underworld. They will definitely make up their minds to comprehensively and intensively crack down on the underworld in this city as an explanation to the people of the whole country. So, in this situation, what else can the Jiang Gang do but escape?"
After hearing Chu Tian's analysis, Haizi slapped his thigh and said, "Third Brother, what you said really makes sense. It seems we'd better go back to Shanghai and keep fighting with Old Ye."
Guangzi also nodded and said, "Yes, no matter how powerful we are, we can't go against the determination of the central government. With the central government's determination, they can even block a flood, let alone wipe out our underworld gangs."
Sister Mei said softly, "Everyone, let's eat. Even if the sky is falling, we should finish this meal."
