Chapter 1308: The Mermaid in the Mansion
Fang Jianzhang met Wen Rending's gaze. Even though he had simulated how to deal with it countless times in his mind, he still felt as if his soul was trembling from the inside out.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand..." He was still trying to remain calm.
He did not reveal a single clue in the whole incident. Even if something really happened, Wen Ren Ding could only blame Qiu Liang. He could not find the blame, so he just had to deny it to the death.
Just as he finished thinking this, he was caught off guard and lifted into the air by Wen Ren Ding, who grabbed his neck.
"I'll ask again, what did you do that you didn't tell me?"
Fang Jianzhang had calculated everything, but he missed one thing: Wen Ren Ding, like everyone else in the Wen family, was not a normal person at all.
He had a suspicion and didn't need any evidence.
Everyone is afraid of death, especially someone as calculating and selfish as Fang Jianzhang. He struggled in vain for a few times, but when he realized that Wen Rending really wanted to kill him, he immediately gave in.
"Mermaid...someone wants your mermaid."
He was thrown to the ground, holding his neck with tears on his face.
Looking at Wen Ren Ding's back as he ran out like lightning, a huge panic arose in his heart. It seemed that he had really made a wrong bet this time?
Not long ago, a stranger found Fang Jianzhang and asked him to cooperate with Qiu Liang to get the mermaid out of Wenren Ding's mansion.
He certainly didn't agree at first, but that person threatened him with the evidence in his shop. He didn't know how that person knew so much, but he only knew that if those things were made public, he and the Fang family would be finished.
In order to protect himself, Fang Jianzhang chose to compromise. He followed the man's instructions, gave Qiu Liang some advice, gave Qiu Liang the necklace containing the drug, and made a careful plan.
I thought it was foolproof, but I didn't expect it to fail so quickly. Now Fang Jianzhang can only pray that Qiu Liang hasn't had time to kidnap the merman yet, otherwise...
Thinking of Wen Rending's eyes and aura just now, Fang Jianzhang seemed to be frozen, lying on the ground, unable to get up.
When Wen Ren Ding was halfway on his journey, he met a servant who came to report the news to him.
When the servants in the mansion discovered that Shi Li was missing, they were so scared that they collapsed to the ground. The few servants in charge who were left were still useful. They mobilized all their manpower to search the city for her, and quickly sent people to inform Wen Ren Ding.
Wen Ren Ding's face had never looked so ugly as it did at this moment.
When he saw the bell chain handed over by the servant, his overwhelming anger seemed to take shape, and the people around him were horrified.
"Fang Jianzhang and Qiu Liang." Wen Rending held the bell in his palm and uttered the two names in a deep voice.
He did not panic, but first mobilized all the available manpower to continue the search. Considering Qiu Liang's recent actions, he immediately guessed that he was related to this matter.
In less than an incense stick of time, the servants brought Fang Jianzhang and Qiu Liang to Wenren Ding.
Qiu Liang's face turned pale, but he still tried to remain calm and managed to force a flattering smile towards Wen Ren Ding.
"Brother Ding, don't be angry. It's not worth it for a mermaid. Wait for the auction at Qizhenlou next month. No matter what rare treasures are on display, I will buy them to make amends to you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was kicked away by Wen Ren Ding and fell to the ground howling.
On the other hand, Fang Jianzhang next to him had probably anticipated his own fate. Although his face was also pale, he did not dare to say a word.
"We've already asked, the carriage went to the old house, we'll send people to track it down."
The servants around Wen Ren Ding had already interrogated the people around Qiu Liang, and finally found some useful clues and came to report to Wen Ren Ding.
He nodded and looked at Fang Jianzhang and Qiu Liang without saying a word.
This matter couldn't be as simple as Qiu Liang thought. He thought he just listened to Dr. Su and wanted to help, but it was clear that someone was planning all this behind the scenes.
Fang Jianzhang's brain was much more useful than Qiu Liang's. By now he had figured out the key point. He did not dare to hide anything and racked his brains to tell everything he knew.
It’s a pity that the people who threatened him always wore veils, and even he had never seen their true faces.
"Brother Ding, I really do this for your own good! Doctor Su said that keeping that mermaid around is a disaster. She will hurt you!"
Qiu Liang was still shouting loudly, and he still didn't realize that he had been fooled.
"What else do you know about Doctor Su? Where is he now?" Wen Rending didn't want to explain to him at all. Although he knew that he was probably being used as a gun, he still asked.
As expected, Qiu Liang fell silent for a moment.
"Dr. Su...traveled all over the place. I, I don't know either."
At this time, the letters from the old house were also delivered to Wen Ren Ding.
The prince of the imperial capital appeared at this time and stayed at the Su family.
"The Su family, Dr. Su..."
Wen Ren Ding suddenly clenched his fists, and veins on the back of his hands and wrists bulged.
The rain is coming.
