Chapter 1345: Chapter 1345: Things Actually Like This

Luo Ziling took a serious look at Lin Lan and Phoenix’s faces, chests, and waists, when the two women’s expressions were becoming colder and it seemed like they were about to explode, he chuckled and started sharing his thoughts.

“Both of you are great beauties, and you have amazing figures, one in a million stunners,” Luo Ziling said, and when he noticed their expressions soften a little, he immediately added a twist, “But…”

But what? He didn’t say it right away, but deliberately stopped talking and continued to size up the two women.

As the chill surfaced again on the women’s faces, he casually took out his mobile phone.

“But no matter how pretty you are, you’re not as pretty as me when I dress up as a woman.” Luo Ziling said, and brought up a photo on his phone to show the two women, “Take a look, take a look, when your bro dresses up as a woman, I totally outshine any so-called beauty.”

Neither Phoenix nor Lin Lan had ever seen Luo Ziling dressed as a woman, and their eyes were immediately drawn to the photo on the phone.

After looking carefully, both were sure that the envy-inducing beauty in the photo was indeed Luo Ziling.

Seeing the surprise on the faces of the two women, Luo Ziling smiled happily: “How about that? Are you convinced? As a man, I can outshine most men, and as a woman, I can make all the beauties lose their luster. This is called…”

“A monster!” Lin Lan quickly finished Luo Ziling’s sentence.

Luo Ziling’s self-praise was cut short, and he looked at Lin Lan, who wore a smug expression, for a while, unable to utter another word.

Phoenix couldn’t help wanting to laugh at Luo Ziling’s embarrassed look, but managed to hold back in the end.

“Monster it is then,” Luo Ziling waved his phone and plopped down onto the couch, “What do you want to drink?”

“Whatever!” Phoenix sat down as well.

“Whatever you drink, you make it yourself,” Luo Ziling pointed to the place with tea leaves and snacks, “There are only you two ladies here, surely you don’t expect me, a big man, to wait on you, right?! Besides, this isn’t my house, just a hotel I’m temporarily staying in.”

His words successfully earned him glaring looks from Phoenix and Lin Lan.

But neither said anything, and Lin Lan, who had not yet sat down, went to boil water and prepare the tea obediently.

“What do you want to talk about? Is it about cooperation?” Luo Ziling chuckled and asked Phoenix, “By the way, the medicine I gave you last time… That, did the plan succeed?”

“The operation failed!” Phoenix sighed softly.

“Really?” Luo Ziling suddenly stood up, “Impossible, I can vouch for the effect of the medicine.”

“It’s not a problem with the medicine’s effect. Our operation was halted.”

“Was it a failure, or was it halted?”

“Halting is failing!” Phoenix calmly looked at Luo Ziling, who had sat back down, “But we haven’t given up on the operation.”

“So, you’re hitting me up for help again?”

“Yes!”

Phoenix admitted so candidly that Luo Ziling was speechless for a moment.

Seeing Luo Ziling not speaking, Phoenix didn’t say anything right away either.

“I think, today you are an unwelcome guest,” Luo Ziling said with a gloomy face to Phoenix, “Every time you bring me news, it’s never good.”

“Not necessarily,” Phoenix pointed to Lin Lan and said, “Someone has been busy running around for your affairs and almost broke the rules. But finally, she has found some clues for you. She will tell you the situation in a bit.”

“That’s her business, it has nothing to do with you!”

Luo Ziling’s words successfully aroused the anger in Phoenix’s heart.

At that moment, Lin Lan brought over the brewed tea.

“Without the team leader’s permission, I wouldn’t have had the chance to look into these things,” Lin Lan gently interjected.

“First, tell me, what clues have you found?” Luo Ziling asked Lin Lan, “Who planned that incident, which nearly cost me my life!”

“Your life was nearly ruined by your lover,” Phoenix said with a mocking face. “I can only say, you’re foolish. I really can’t understand where your usually agile moves went.”

Luo Ziling retorted irritably, “I don’t believe for a second that with your skills, you could avoid bullets at such close range.”

Phoenix didn’t speak, just picked up her teacup and started sipping tea.

Indeed, at such close range, she would have almost certainly been unable to dodge the bullets.

It was just that both she and Lin Lan were angry that Luo Ziling was actually shot by Yang Qingyin.

Their impression of Yang Qingyin had become very poor.

While their view of Yang Qingyin changed, they also despised Luo Ziling.

The woman who almost killed him is still cherished like a treasure, insisting on being together despite the family’s objections.

Especially Lin Lan, who was seething with indignation.

If it wasn’t for Phoenix’s reminder, she was close to seeking out Yang Qingyin to settle scores.

“What clues have you investigated?” Luo Ziling ignored Phoenix and asked Lin Lan again.

Lin Lan hesitated for a moment, but at Phoenix’s meaningful glance, she still answered Luo Ziling’s question.

“This matter was likely planned by Yang Yunzhong,” Lin Lan began with a conclusion for Luo Ziling, then told him some of the clues she had found.

The father and son duo, Lu Lianda and his son, have always been close to the Yang Family, and it can also be said that Lu Lianda is a diehard ally of Yang Yunlin.

Because of their close relationship, Lu Lianda wanted Lu Weiguang to marry Yang Qingyin, which would have completely tied the Lu Family to the Yang Family. Unexpectedly, because of Luo Ziling’s emergence, everything turned to dust.

Ling Ruonan severely extorted a large sum from them, causing a major blow to the Lu Family’s vitality.

Lu Lianda, of course, couldn’t swallow this anger and looked for opportunities for revenge.

Yang Yunlin could not let Lu Lianda be bullied by Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling, after all, Lu Lianda was his trusted confidant.

Although not the most important confidant, Lu Lianda’s significant financial loss was also a blow to his reputation.

Therefore, Yang Yunlin secretly encouraged Lu Lianda to take revenge, and Lu Lianda started planning it.

However, what’s fatal is that while Lu Lianda was plotting his revenge, he was found out by Yang Yunlin’s cousin, Yang Yunzhong.

For years, Yang Yunzhong has been unwilling to see the position of the Family Head fall into the hands of Yang Yunlin, so he has been collecting incriminating information against Yang Yunlin.

Some of the dirty work Lu Lianda did for Yang Yunlin was in the hands of Yang Yunzhong.

Yang Yunzhong then used this information to coerce Lu Lianda.

With his weak spot in Yang Yunzhong’s grip, Lu Lianda had no way to struggle and had to act at Yang Yunzhong’s whim.

Consequently, there was the incident where Lu Weiguang was forced to turn his hand against Yang Qingyin.

After hearing what Lin Lan said, Luo Ziling sighed. It was indeed such a result.

This possibility had already crossed their minds. But having it confirmed from Lin Lan’s mouth still left him somewhat emotional.

In the pursuit of power and status, aren’t incidents of kith and kin turning on each other all too common?

But after Lin Lan mentioned all this, she took another turn with her words: “However, Lu Lianda and Lu Weiguang weren’t killed by Yang Yunzhong!”

“What?!” Caught off-guard by Lin Lan’s dramatic turn, Luo Ziling was once again surprised, “Then who was it?”
