Chapter 367: Collaboration Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Time passed day by day. After the annual leave, all industries began to resume work.
Jing Mo was destined to not recover completely. He would probably spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Coincidentally, he received a court summon at this moment.
Jing Mo was not stupid. At first, he could not figure out who had such a huge feud with him after being surrounded and beaten up this time. He figured it out after sorting out the people he might have offended.
In fact, he did not think of Lin Jian directly at first. He only thought that it was Lin Yan.
He had indeed encouraged Lin Yan to participate in the bidding this time, but Lin Yan had the intention to do so himself. That was why he agreed to cooperate with him. If the bidding failed, not only would Tengyue lose a lot of money and face the danger of his capital chain breaking, but he would also offend the Liang Corporation and the Zhang Corporation at the same time.
Between the Liang Corporation and the Zhang Corporation, one was a big shot in Bi City, and the other was a top wealthy family in Bi City. It would probably be very difficult for Tengyue to make a comeback after offending these two families at the same time.
Hence, at this moment, Lin Yan probably wanted to kill him.
This time, he had completely offended Lin Yan. It was said that a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Although Tengyue was weak, Lin Yan was much more powerful than him. After being rejected at the hospital the previous two times, he tried his best to reduce his presence and try not to let Lin Yan think of him and settle scores with him.
His current situation felt like a vicious cycle.
Thinking that Lin Yan might have gotten someone to beat him up, Jing Mo called Lin Yan.
Facing his question, Lin Yan acted especially surprised and even a little angry.
“Jing Mo, 1 didn’t find trouble with you even though 1 was tricked by you. In the end, you’re slandering me?” Lin Yan almost shouted these words.
However, he had not completely recovered from his illness. He sounded a little weak when he shouted, and he could not help but cough as soon as he finished speaking.
Jing Mo had known Lin Yan since he was young and knew him quite well. Lin Yan’s reaction could only mean that what he said was true.
It was not Lin Yan.
Who else could it be?
Jing Mo pulled out the people in his memory one by one and eliminated them one by one. Later on, he received a call from Lin Yan, who asked him where he had been beaten.
Jing Mo told him the location. The other party was silent for a moment before saying, “That place is not peaceful to begin with. It’s filled with hooligans. If you want to go there yourself, it makes sense for you to be beaten up.”
Jing Mo immediately sensed that something was wrong. The place he walked was not especially remote. In fact, he was dragged to the alley to be beaten up after he was blindfolded.
Lin Yan called to ask him again. This matter was already strange, coupled with his words.
It was not Lin Yan, but it was related to Lin Yan.
A person immediately appeared in Jing Mo’s mind.
Lin Jian, Lin Yan’s second-generation heir son who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun.
The few times he went to look for Lin Yan, he looked at him with a dark gaze.
Lin Yan probably already knew that it was Lin Jian who did it, so he specially called him.
Jing Mo sneered in his heart and said, “I’ve already roughly investigated if it was a hooligan or someone else who planned it. I still have to thank the leader for dropping the things. I’ve already planned to call the police. The murderer’s fingerprints will definitely be left on the evidence. It’ll be very easy to find out who did it.”
Lin Yan’s breathing quickened. Jing Mo even heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
A cold smile appeared on his lips. He could roughly guess what was going on.
“Rest well. We’ll contact each other later.” Lin Yan hung up after saying this last sentence.
After hanging up, Lin Yan immediately questioned his son. “I won’t say anything if you hate Jing Mo and want to teach him a lesson, but can you be more cautious? Not only did you follow him, but you also left something on the scene. Think about what you left behind that day.”
Lin Jian looked confused and could not remember at all.
“Don’t you even know what you’re carrying?” Lin Yan swept the other blanket beside him to the ground.
There was a crisp bang. Lin Jian, who was still trying his best to recall, trembled in fear. He said in a trembling voice, “I really don’t remember. I went there drunk that day.”
Lin Yan glared at him and almost fainted from anger.
Not long after that, Jing Mo received another call from Lin Yan. He suggested that he would bring his son to the hospital to see Jing Mo tomorrow.
Lin Yan hoped that this matter could be settled privately. Jing Mo did not want to agree at first, but Lin Yan knew about his relationship with Zhang Li and knew that he was fighting a lawsuit with Zhang Li. With Jing Mo’s current situation, he might not even be able to hire a better lawyer, let alone win this lawsuit.
After some consideration, Jing Mo agreed. He had always been sensible..
