Chapter 401: Angry Jiang Junlin
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“This couldn’t have been an accident!” Out of nowhere, how could there be a mad dog that killed his child? His wife was six months pregnant when the incident happened; this was his child.
Could it be Lu Zhiyuan?
Tang Mingzhou gritted his teeth and thought, it must be Lu Zhiyuan trying to wipe out everyone, not sparing even women and children. After all, that was his child, and Tang Mingzhou was trembling with anger.
Jiang Junlin and Chen Liangdong exchanged glances. Chen Liangdong, who had been silent all along, said, “Tang Mingzhou, whether it’s an accident or deliberate, there’s nothing you can do. You’ll spend the rest of your life in this prison.”
Tang Mingzhou gritted his teeth and looked at Jiang Junlin, “If 1 provide information, can I apply for immunity?”
“Sure!” Jiang Junlin readily agreed, “As long as the information you provide is valuable, I’ll find a way to help you apply for immunity.”
“Jiang Junlin…” Chen Liangdong shook his head gently.
“I want it in writing, signed and stamped. If you can’t make the decision, find someone who can negotiate with me.” Tang Mingzhou was familiar with this system; he wanted to ensure his freedom.
He was locked up here, cut off from the outside world. He had left a substantial sum of money for his wife and set up a fund for his child. They should have been living carefree and happy lives, but he couldn’t believe it was an accident.
“Let’s discuss this first,” Chen Liangdong said.
Jiang Junlin followed Chen Liangdong outside, and Chen Liangdong said, “Tang Mingzhou has a life sentence. It’s almost impossible to get immunity. Even if we promise him, we can’t deliver.”
“As long as the information he provides can reveal the truth from five years ago, we can promise him. That information is more important than his life.” Jiang Junlin said.
“I need some time to think about this.” Chen Liangdong hesitated slightly. Jiang Junlin wasn’t part of the system and didn’t follow the rules like Chen Liangdong did. This was something only Chen Liangdong could handle.
“He has been kept in solitary confinement, right? No one has visited him?”
“No, there has always been someone specifically guarding him. He has no one to talk to, and he has managed to live peacefully in prison. Back then, we designed a trap, and many people thought he was dead.” Chen Liangdong asked, “I’m curious, how did you know he was imprisoned here?”
“I have my sources,” Jiang Junlin said softly as he walked out with Chen Liangdong. “This lead is too important; it must be kept confidential. There can’t be any mishaps.”
“I understand,” Chen Liangdong said, “No one held here has ever caused any trouble. When his wife and child had the accident, I thought about telling him, but I decided against it.”
“It’s a good thing you didn’t. Otherwise, after all these years, anger, sadness, and hatred would have faded with time, and his will would have been eroded. It wouldn’t have the same effect now.”
“It was truly an accident. That internet-famous dog was usually very gentle. The kids in the neighborhood loved playing with him, and no one knew he was sick. It just happened that he attacked them.” Chen Liangdong said, “I was afraid someone might actually kill them, so I investigated this lead.”
“I know, Lu Zhiyuan wouldn’t harm women and children.” Jiang Junlin turned to look at the prison, “It’s a pity, Tang Mingzhou once trained Lu Zhiyuan, but he doesn’t understand his character. As long as Tang Mingzhou feels it’s not an accident and holds grudges, he will cooperate with us. I want the information in his mind; his grudge with Lu Zhiyuan is their private matter.”
“Master, Ji Chi is here, waiting for you,” Zhang Qiang whispered.
“What’s he here for?” Jiang Junlin frowned. He had plans with Lu Zhiyuan tomorrow afternoon, so why was Ji Chi here tonight? As Jiang Junlin and Zhang Qiang exited the Ministry of State Security, Ji Chi leaned against the car, looking at him with a smile. “Big brother, I made your favorite Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. I brought some for you to taste.”
Jiang Junlin’s eyebrows twitched. After deciphering the intelligence and checking Tang Mingzhou’s information, he had rushed to the Ministry of State Security. He hadn’t had dinner yet, and now he was feeling a bit hungry. However, the thought of Ji Chi making the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made him feel content even if he had to endure hunger.
He got into the car, and Zhang Qiang and the close security team followed him as they headed to Jiang Junlin’s apartment. fre enovelkiss.com
Recently, Ji Chi had been staying at the Global Center, and Jiang Junlin often returned to his apartment because of Ji Chi. Jiang Junlin was a bit tired, so he dozed off while Ji Chi played some soothing music and adjusted the seat height.
Jiang Junlin said, “Drive your car, don’t worry about me.”
Ji Chi softly asked, “You’ve got dark circles under your eyes. Have you been particularly busy lately?”
“I’ve had a lot of things piling up.” Jiang Junlin was juggling multiple roles, and it was getting a bit overwhelming. He hoped that Gu Ci would recover soon and help him with the Triad matters.
With a single hand controlling the steering wheel, Ji Chi reached out and held Jiang Junlin’s hand, intertwining their fingers. Jiang Junlin didn’t like this sticky feeling, but he didn’t say anything.
After taking a shower and coming out, Ji Chi had already prepared the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. When he opened the lid, a strong fishy smell wafted out. Jiang Junlin asked with an expressionless face, “Have you ever eaten the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall you made yourself?”
“I’m not a big fan of fish lips and sea cucumber,” Ji Chi replied.
Jiang Junlin struggled to scoop up some sea cucumber with a spoon but put it back down. He looked at Ji Chi, who was waiting expectantly, but restrained himself from saying what was on his mind. Ji Chi said, “I hired a Cantonese chef to teach me. He said this is the most authentic recipe, and the ingredients are carefully selected.”
“Which restaurant’s chef?” Jiang Junlin thought to himself, wondering if he should avoid that restaurant in the future.
“Xingyang, the one you often visit.”
Jiang Junlin pondered silently. He never ordered Buddha Jumps Over the Wall at restaurants because he was cautious about what he ate. He stared at the dish in front of him, and the aroma couldn’t hide the fishy scent. “Lu Zhiyuan got injured, and you and Rong Li handled official business. With your busy schedule, you still have time to cook?”
Ji Chi had grown up abroad and didn’t understand the intricacies of Chinese, so he didn’t realize that Jiang Junlin was subtly mocking him and took it as praise. “It doesn’t take much time, actually. Big brother, why aren’t you eating? Seafood doesn’t taste good when it gets cold.”
Jiang Junlin thought to himself that it might not taste that great when it’s hot either.
He resisted the intense gaze of Ji Chi, caught in a tug-of-war between refusing and eating the dish. However, Ji Chi was focused on the task assigned to him by Lu Zhiyuan, wanting to uncover Jiang Junlin’s whereabouts and secrets, which felt like an impossible mission. Yet, he had to find out before they met. 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝑛ℴ𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝑚
“Big brother, what are you going to do at the Ministry of State Security tonight?” Ji Chi asked.
“I’m going to talk to Chen Liangdong about something,” Jiang Junlin replied indifferently, giving him a fleeting glance. He looked at the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and seemed to see through everything. Suddenly, he dropped the spoon and pushed the dish toward Ji Chi. He said calmly, “Your sense of smell has gone bad. How did you not notice the strong odor?”
Ji Chi was momentarily puzzled, not sure which of his words had triggered Jiang Junlin’s anger.. Why did he suddenly lose his temper?
