2 Years Of Restarting - Chapter 225
Since it was so valuable, Lei Xing Yi decided to use it as one of the design and asked her men to make special design. With this new jewelry, it was clear that they were going to reap millions with minimum cost.
The people went into hype when they saw the jewelry and the jewelries there ended up being sold so quickly. Even Lei Xing Yi didn’t expect that there would be a lot of people who want to buy it.
Little did she know that the number of guests had increased exponentially from the moment Long Shu Ting appeared. The reporters had already reported the matter and thus, a lot of people came to meet him.
Where else would they meet him if not now?
The business thus boomed.
…
When it was evening, Yu Yan and Long Ying went to the back. Long Shu Ting had bidden farewell and left with his wife and son using the car. But what they didn’t know was that he drove to the back of the store using different street that was covered.
The back area was the quiet residential area. This place was purposely picked by Yu Yan back then because of the close distance to the residential areas.
“They’re here.” Long Ying narrowed his gaze as he watched the car come into a stop.
Long Shu Ting alighted down. He looked at his young brother with a faint smile. “I would never expect that you will ever ask for my help to hype a store, Long Ying.”
“So do I.” Long Ying was equally calm. “What exceed my expectation is that you actually agree to my request.”
“Heh.”
The two of them then looked at their respective wife. Yu Yan understood by Long Ying’s gaze that he wanted private discussion, so she stepped forward to Zhou Xi An and Long Ao Jiang.
“Shall we take a walk?”
“Sure.” Zhou Xi An also noticed her husband was looking at her with warning. She decided to agree right away and let the two brothers dealt with their problems. “Ao Jiang, we’re going to take a short walk with Aunt Yu.”
“Okay~!” Long Ao Jiang knew better than anyone to follow his father’s arrangement. When he was angry, it was time for everyone to run away.
“Let’s go.”
The three of them left into the distance while the two men stayed behind. Long Ying took out a cigarette and lit it up in slow movement. He rarely smoked but he chose to smoke in front of his older brother as a way to open the conversation. His hand stretched forward to ask whether he wanted one or not.
Long Shu Ting didn’t reject it and take one cigarette. He lit it up and exhaled lightly. “Heh, you always chose this cheap brand. Can’t you pick a better one?”
“I’m already used to this one.” Long Ying was calm. When he was young, he often saw his uncle smoke and thought that it was something necessary. However, his uncle didn’t allow him to smoke, so he ran to the street and asked some of his friends.
They were all not rich people so they could only buy the moderately cheap brand. Thanks to that, Long Ying was used to the poorer quality brand and didn’t have any intention to change when he was not even an avid smoker.
Long Shu Ting nodded. “Father saw the invitation.”
“Oh, you show it to him?”
“Not exactly. I’m still being monitored.” Long Shu Ting exhaled, puffing the smoke lightly. “He doesn’t believe I’m completely innocent in his matter since I’m the only one who come home often.”
Long Ying was not surprised. When Long Shao Huai, their father, suddenly collapsed, he had checked everyone intensively. He was a very cautious and ruthless man, so it was clearly something out of the ordinary for him to suddenly fall sick like that.
As it turned out, Long Shu Xing bribed the servant who was closest to Long Shao Huai. The poison was tasteless and odorless, so normal people would not know. Not to mention, the dose was given little by little over a long period of time.
Long Shao Huai failed to notice until his old body started to break down.
It was when he realized that he had fallen to the trap that was set up to him. In addition to him, many of the servants were also poisoned as they had tasted the food before giving it to him.
Many of those who had worked for him for years ended up in comma and dying.
Long Shu Ting rarely ate at home because he was often away. Zhou Xi An and Long Ao Jiang lived in separate villa because they couldn’t stand staying with Long Shao Huai. Only Long Shu Ting often came to visit his father from time to time in that old mansion.
Long Shu Xing also often came there but it was not as often as Long Shu Ting.
Logically speaking, it would have been easier for Long Shu Ting to be the one to poison his father compared to his younger brother. However, even after ridiculous amount of investigation, Long Shu Ting was clean as he had never even touched the food nor got close to the servant.
It was as if Long Shu Ting didn’t even treat the place as his home.
On the other hand, it was Long Shu Xing who often fooled around with the servants and got close with them. There was more than one occasion when he even barged into the kitchen just to eat the food first.
It was also because of his frivolous action that he was caught red handed. He failed to notice some hidden security cameras.
“Need help to clean your name?” Long Ying asked in unhurried tone. For him, it was as easy as asking his men to trace the poison’s record of buying since their father had only found half.. With his connection in the underworld, it was as easy as lifting a hand.
