Chapter 1943: Chapter 1943: What Are You Planning to Do?

Chen Jiahu certainly wouldn’t care about Luo Ziling’s threat. After a disdainful hum, he turned his head away, ignoring Luo Ziling.

He thought that no matter what, Luo Ziling wouldn’t dare to do anything to him, because today, Luo Ziling wasn’t here to assassinate him but to kidnap him.

Kidnapping him was just to extract some information from him; as long as he didn’t speak, Luo Ziling wouldn’t dare to harm him.

But Chen Jiahu completely underestimated Luo Ziling’s ruthlessness, and the panicked Chen didn’t think about how Chen Jiahai had died.

Not until Luo Ziling pierced a needle into the acupoint at his waist, making his entire body lose sensation as if paralyzed, did he truly become afraid.

It wasn’t true fear, but a real understanding that Luo Ziling wouldn’t treat him with “kindness.”

But in his hesitation, Luo Ziling pierced another needle into a certain acupoint on his back, instantly spreading a sensation like being bitten by ants throughout his body.

He wanted to scratch the itch badly, but his hands and feet were bound, unable to move.

As the third needle pierced his acupoint, Chen Jiahu truly understood the taste of a fate worse than death.

He swore, if he had known the outcome would be like this, he would have confessed everything upon seeing Luo Ziling.

“I’ll tell, I’ll…say everything,” Chen Jiahu yelled out this incoherent sentence amidst tears and sobs.

Luo Ziling removed two needles, but left one needle in Chen Jiahu’s acupoint and had someone untie him.

After regaining his freedom, Chen Jiahu couldn’t stand up, struggling painfully on the ground. Although the unbearable sensation had diminished, he still felt agonizingly uncomfortable.

“Did the Chen Family plan to murder Ling Haiyang?” Luo Ziling asked coldly.

“No…it was not us, it was, it was, it was me who planned to kill him,” Chen Jiahu quickly relented and confessed before Luo Ziling even asked further questions.

“Wait a moment!” Luo Ziling interrupted him, then removed the last needle from his body but pressed on several acupoints on Chen Jiahu.

The unbearable sensation in Chen Jiahu faded significantly, but there was still an unspeakable pain, extremely uncomfortable.

“Explain your plot to murder Ling Haihang, and be clear about it,” Luo Ziling ordered sternly, “If you wish to experience the sensation from before, I can fulfill that desire; if not, then honestly confess. One thing to remind you, if the acupoints are stimulated for too long, some untreatable aftereffects could occur, leading you to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair, unable to be aroused even when seeing a woman.”

“I’ll confess, I’ll confess,” Luo Ziling’s following threat directly shattered Chen Jiahu’s last psychological defense line.

He recounted the plot to murder Ling Haihang in detail. After confessing to the murder of Ling Haihang, under Luo Ziling’s further questioning, Chen Jiahu revealed many of the Chen family’s disgraceful plans.

Unexpectedly, but not surprisingly, Chen Jiahu confessed that the Fang Family was involved in some events.

The Fang Family was not involved in the murder of Ling Haihang, but their cooperation with the Chen Family was extensive, even participating in some schemes against the Ling Family, Ling Ruonan, and Luo Ziling.

Chen Jiahu confessed quite a lot, which satisfied Luo Ziling.

When Chen Jiahu’s spirit was near collapse, muttering nonsense, Luo Ziling promptly stopped him from speaking.

After knocking Chen Jiahu unconscious, Luo Ziling signaled to Wuyue to lock this guy up in a safe place.

While Wuyue was in charge of handling this, Wang Zhenjun came in.

“Young Master, the video has been segmented,” Wang Zhenjun handed several labeled flash drives to Luo Ziling, “Some portions that are inconvenient for others to see have been handled.”

“Good,” Luo Ziling took the flash drives, then instructed Wang Zhenjun, “Arrest people based on Chen Jiahu’s confession and gather evidence. Keep the most important things for the right time. Then, figure out how to spread the word about the Chen family uniting with the Fang family to murder Ling Haihang.”

“Understood,” Wang Zhenjun listened to the instructions and immediately went to execute them.

Seeing the time was already 11:30, Luo Ziling yawned long and smiled at Wuyue, “Let’s go, time to go back to sleep.”

While walking out, he added in a teasing tone, “Tonight, many people are going to have a sleepless night.”

“The Chen family people will definitely focus their efforts on finding Chen Jiahu’s whereabouts,” Wuyue replied.

“Not necessarily,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “they might not realize yet that Chen Jiahu is missing. After all, Chen Jiahu has already returned to his apartment, preparing to sleep.”

“The best outcome is for the Chen family not to know about Chen Jiahu’s disappearance,” Wuyue said and then hesitated, asking Luo Ziling, “Young Master, then why spread the news?”

“At this hour, those old men are surely asleep. Their families or subordinates wouldn’t wake them because of such rumors. That’s my assessment; therefore, even if the news is spread, it won’t alarm these old men. By the time they wake up tomorrow and learn about it, the news will have spread. The death of Ling Haihang didn’t spread widely due to Old Mr. Ling’s personal interference. If none of the key figures intervene in the Chen Jiahu matter, it will definitely spread quickly. Anyway, even if they find out Chen Jiahu is missing, they won’t find us immediately, so let’s not worry and just go back to sleep.” he explained.

“Understood,” though Wuyue felt Luo Ziling’s analysis was somewhat far-fetched, she also believed that nothing uncontrollable would happen tonight, and since everything was well arranged, she followed Luo Ziling back.

On the way back, Wuyue asked Luo Ziling, “How do you plan to deal with Chen Jiahu?”

“Hand Chen Jiahu over to my uncle, Ling Zhengmin, and let him handle it. Uh, I’ll talk to my mom first!” Luo Ziling said, showing a playful smile, “The next act shouldn’t be led by us. Let those big shots make their appearance—I only direct the opening scene!”

Wuyue didn’t ask anything further and focused on driving.

But to Luo Ziling’s surprise, when he returned to the villa, Ling Ruonan was still awake.

As he quietly ascended the stairs, preparing to enter his room, Ling Ruonan’s bedroom door quietly opened.

“You’re back?” Ling Ruonan asked softly, “How did things go?”

“Mom, I handled everything, don’t worry!” Luo Ziling smiled, “It’s confirmed that the Chen family planned Ling Haihang’s murder, and I even got some secret cooperation information about the Chen and Fang families from Chen Jiahu. Chen Jiahu probably doesn’t know the crucial details, but analyzing from what he confessed reveals that the Fang family is indeed a bit underhanded. Next, there will be a good show to watch.”

After hearing this, Ling Ruonan frowned tightly, and after some thought, she asked Luo Ziling, “What do you plan to do?”

“Mom, I plan to hand over Chen Jiahu and the evidence to Ling Zhengmin and inform Grandpa about the situation for them to handle it. We won’t do anything; if necessary, pass some information through Fang Dongxun to Fang Xiang or Fang Zhonghua, or I can casually mention it when Grandpa and I visit their house, what do you think?”

Upon hearing Luo Ziling’s arrangement, Ling Ruonan frowned even tighter.

“You intend to lay cards on the table with them?” she gently asked.
