This...
Seeing this, Tang Xinwan and Murong Yu’s mouths twitched. They had never seen someone force money into an opponent's hand.
Moreover, one knelt down, and the other threatened with death.
If this were to get out, who would believe it!
Facing this situation, Tang Xinwan didn't know what to do, her gaze flickered to Ye Cangtian beside her.
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly and said, "You should still accept it. This is a building over ten stories high. If someone were to die, the branch company would definitely find it hard to escape the repercussions..."
"This... Alright."
Since Ye Cangtian had said so, although Tang Xinwan was unwilling, she still nodded.
After all, the shares had been returned, and there was no written agreement. This sum of money wouldn't cause any trouble.
On the other side, seeing Tang Xinwan finally nod, Song Jianming and Xia Guangzhi breathed a sigh of relief as if they had escaped a great disaster.
Then, they repeatedly expressed their thanks!
As if thanking a savior, they then withdrew from the company.
"Are those two crazy?"
"Did you sneak out last night and do something to them?"
After the two left, Tang Xinwan found an opportunity to be alone and questioned Ye Cangtian.
After all, Ye Cangtian dared to kill Yuwen Hao for her.
As for threatening these two, it wasn't something he wouldn't do!
"Ahem, what are you saying? Am I that kind of person?"
Ye Cangtian chuckled dryly, then patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, their returning the equity was definitely not due to my threats!"
It was Old Master Xu who did it, it has nothing to do with me!
Seeing Ye Cangtian deny it, Tang Xinwan snorted and didn't bother to ask further.
After all, based on her intuition, she felt that this matter was definitely related to Ye Cangtian!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Just then, the office door was knocked upon, and Murong Yu's assistant walked in.
"Mr. Ye, a man just went to the front desk, left an envelope, and then left."
The assistant came before Ye Cangtian and handed him the envelope.
Looking at the envelope, he saw the words 'For Ye Cangtian' written on it. Ye Cangtian’s eyes showed curiosity.
Speaking of which, in Kyoto, his friends all had his contact information. Since that was the case, why contact him in this manner?
Then there was only one answer: this person might not be a familiar face, and could even be an opponent.
At this moment, Tang Xinwan also leaned over and saw the handwriting, then said:
"Open it, see what's inside?"
"Heh, it says 'for my eyes only'. Perhaps it's a mission, so I can't open it in front of you."
Ye Cangtian glanced at Tang Xinwan and said with a smile.
Since he already had some doubts, it was better to open it himself. In case it was a threatening letter, it would also prevent Tang Xinwan from being frightened.
Tch!
Tang Xinwan rolled her eyes, turned around, and sat back at her desk.
Only then did Ye Cangtian open the envelope and take out the letter inside.
"If you want to know information about Tang Qingshan and his wife, come to Happy Valley."
Information about Tang Qingshan and his wife?
Phew! Fortunately, I didn't let Xinwan see this message.
Ye Cangtian breathed a sigh of relief.
If Tang Xinwan found out, she would have to go and find out, no matter what.
Muttering to himself, Ye Cangtian also decided to go and see for himself.
Although Old Master Xu had said that information about Tang Qingshan and his wife would only be told to him after he entered the Hidden Group, now that there was a clue, he naturally couldn't give up.
Ye Cangtian also suspected if this was a trap!
But even if it was a trap, he had to risk trying it. Not going would make him seem timid!
Soon, he informed Tang Xinwan and left the Kyoto branch company.
...
Happy Valley.
Located in the southern part of Kyoto, it had various entertainment facilities such as a Ferris wheel, pirate ship, bungee jumping, and so on.
In short, whatever you knew of, it was definitely here.
Ye Cangtian arrived at the entrance and looked at the endless scenery and the surging crowd, frowning slightly.
This Happy Valley was too large. Finding someone here was no different from finding a needle in a haystack!
"Alas! I wanted to go into the haunted house for some excitement, but it's closed today. What a disappointment..."
While hesitating, Ye Cangtian occasionally heard the complaints of tourists and immediately understood something.
After all, the information about Tang Qingshan was always confidential. Since the other party intended to disclose it, they would not do so in full view of everyone.
And the closed haunted house was the perfect place for discussion.
Soon, following the signs of Happy Valley, Ye Cangtian arrived at the haunted house.
The light inside the haunted house was very dim.
The environment was quite gloomy, with all sorts of frightening props.
However, as adults, they all knew that all of this was fake, and Ye Cangtian naturally would not be frightened by it.
He slowly explored the interior of the haunted house, searching from one dark room to another.
At some point, he finally detected a faint sound.
"Come someone... Save me... Is anyone there..."
Ye Cangtian distinguished carefully. This was definitely not a recording, so without a second word, he went to see for himself.
Pushing open the door of the innermost room in the haunted house, a bloody smell rushed towards him.
Upon closer inspection, a figure was tied to a chair, wearing a hood over its head, emitting hoarse and weak sounds from within.
Who is this?
Ye Cangtian strode forward, checking the other party's injuries while removing their hood.
Zhou Bang?
Seeing the other party's appearance, Ye Cangtian was stunned.
In the morning, Old Master Xu had told him about Zhou Bang's disappearance last night and asked him to help investigate.
He never imagined that Zhou Bang would appear here.
Looking at Zhou Bang's injuries again, Ye Cangtian's expression became extremely solemn.
Zhou Bang's limbs had been broken. Besides old wounds, his leg wounds also had new ones. These were not fatal.
The most fatal was the appearance of a concavity the size of a casserole on both sides of Zhou Bang's chest. His ribs had been broken and pierced into his heart.
By simply inferring the time from the surrounding blood.
Zhou Bang had been injured for at least twenty minutes.
Logically speaking, with such injuries, Zhou Bang should have died long ago. The fact that he was still clinging to life was probably due to being injected with some kind of stimulant.
"Ye... Ye Cangtian, save me... Please save me..."
Zhou Bang's voice grew weaker and weaker.
He thought he would wait for a kind person, but unexpectedly, he waited for an enemy.
But for the sake of his life, he had to put everything aside and beg for help.
"I'm sorry, I really can't save you."
Ye Cangtian glanced at Zhou Bang and shook his head helplessly.
He wanted to save him, but the other party's wounds were fatal, and even his heart had been pierced. How could he save him?
In this situation, even if he had the Immortality Root with him, it would be of no use.
"Please, save me. If you save me, I'll be your servant for the rest of my life..."
Zhou Bang thought Ye Cangtian refused to save him because of their past grievances, so he lowered his posture again.
"Your injuries, let alone here, even in a hospital now, no one can save you."
Ye Cangtian did not want to lie to the other party and spoke frankly, then continued:
"Now, while the effects of the medicine haven't worn off, tell me about the murderer, and what are your last words. I can convey them for you."
Since the person was dying, all grievances would naturally dissipate. Ye Cangtian didn't mind helping him with this last little favor.
