Chapter 233 The Calm Before the Storm

Wang Zhenliang was leading his team towards Qinglong Villa when he suddenly received a call from Jiangning.

When he learned that the other party was Su Canghai, he was stunned for a moment, and then felt a strong sense of pressure. The other party was not speaking to him in a negotiating tone, but in a tone that was almost a command.

Wang Zhenliang's pressure increased, and his heart began to waver.

The person who called him was a high-ranking official of Jiangnan, an influential figure in the Jiangnan region!

If he handled the matter according to the law, he would inevitably offend the Su family, but if he didn't handle it according to the law, he would be letting down his conscience.

With a bite of his teeth.

Wang Zhenliang decided to play dumb with Su Canghai, "I understand, I will definitely handle this according to the law, and I assure you that the people can rest assured."

These polite words made Su Canghai frown, but he couldn't show his displeasure now, otherwise, it would be easy for people to find fault. He pondered for a moment and then said, "You must shoot the culprit dead. According to my knowledge, that culprit has already killed many people. To protect the lives and property of the people, I once again request you to shoot that culprit dead."

In one sentence, he asked Wang Zhenliang to shoot Chen Jinzhao dead twice, which shows how anxious and angry Su Canghai was.

Wang Zhenliang still didn't make a definitive statement, and said solemnly, "Please rest assured, I will handle this impartially, and I will not show any mercy when it is time to shoot the culprit dead!"

As for when to shoot, it was still up to Wang Zhenliang to decide.

Su Canghai was faintly angry.

However, he really couldn't say anything now. After letting out a cold snort, he said, "Okay, then I'll trouble you. I'll arrange for people to come from Jiangning to Ninghai to support you. At that time, your Ninghai Municipal Bureau must obey the arrangements of the provincial authorities."

He was still uneasy about Wang Zhenliang.

Wang Zhenliang said a few more flattering words before hanging up.

Looking through the rearview mirror, he could clearly see a hint of amusement in Wang Zhenliang's eyes. He thought to himself, "Heh, it seems the Su family is very afraid of me handling this according to the law. If a scandal occurs at this critical juncture, it will indeed be bad for the Su family. But if I go along with them, how can I be worthy of the uniform I'm wearing, and how can I be worthy of the people?"

He had made up his mind.

"How much longer until we reach Qinglong Villa?" Wang Zhenliang asked the driver.

The driver replied without hesitation, "At the fastest, it will take ten minutes!"

Wang Zhenliang pondered for a moment, "No, ten minutes is too long. I want you to reach Qinglong Villa within five minutes. Also, immediately convey my orders and have all departments take their positions!"

The driver seemed to have thought of something and asked subtly, "Should we turn on the sirens?"

According to convention.

When the children of powerful families were involved in crimes, they would not make a big fuss to avoid causing a public outcry.

Wang Zhenliang laughed, "Of course, we should turn them on. We are going to arrest a criminal suspect now, not do something sneakily. Otherwise, we will be sold and still have to count money for them."

The order was passed down, and the sirens wailed outside the earrings.

Some people speculated what had happened, that so many police cars were dispatched!

On some internet platforms, discussions had already begun, but the posts were deleted by the administrators as soon as they became popular. Those who guessed the truth were permanently banned and silenced.

If no one discusses it, it's as if it never happened.

Qinglong Villa.

Chen Jinzhao had already arrived on the second floor. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Tao Qiyue lying on the bed, unable to move.

Tao Qiyue had already heard the commotion downstairs, especially when Chen Jinzhao's car hit the load-bearing pillar and the entire building seemed to shake. It was hard for her not to worry about Chen Jinzhao.

Especially since there was the sound of fighting downstairs.

Hearing footsteps outside the room, Tao Qiyue thought Chen Jinzhao had been killed and felt grief in her heart.

However, when she saw Chen Jinzhao entering the room, her eyes widened, and her mouth opened, not knowing what to say.

"You..."

"Your arm!"

Tao Qiyue immediately saw the injury on Chen Jinzhao's upper right arm, and the blood flowing had dyed his entire arm red.

Chen Jinzhao walked to the bedside and shook his head at her, "I'm fine, how are you feeling now?"

"I was injected with anesthetic at the bar before. Although I'm awake now, my limbs are weak and I can't move," Tao Qiyue explained. Chen Jinzhao thought for a moment and said, "I'll help you sit up. You don't mind the bloodstains on me, do you?"

Tao Qiyue shook her head. How could she mind?

This was all the blood Chen Jinzhao had shed to save her.

Chen Jinzhao helped her up and she sat leaning against the headboard. Tao Qiyue then asked, "What happened downstairs just now? Where are Yu Huaixuan and Su Jian?"

She already had a guess, but wanted Chen Jinzhao's confirmation.

Chen Jinzhao said casually, "Su Jian ambushed eight assassins in Qinglong Villa, and I killed them all. My arm was injured at that time. As for Su Jian and Yu Huaixuan, they have also been nailed to the floor in the living room downstairs. The disturbance has been quelled."

"What? You, you killed all those people?" Tao Qiyue was greatly surprised.

Those were eight assassins!

How could they be ordinary people if they were favored by the Su family?

Chen Jinzhao nodded, "Yes, you don't need to worry about the rest. I will handle it."

Tao Qiyue was still in shock, her face pale, and she said nothing. Chen Jinzhao smiled, "Do you think I'm a bit scary?"

"No, that's not what I meant," Tao Qiyue came back to her senses.

"I just think that this matter will cause a very terrible storm. After all, Su Jian is Su Canghai's son."

That was a real high-ranking official.

The current peace might be a prelude to a storm. The calmer it was, the more intense the storm would be.

Chen Jinzhao found some disinfectant alcohol in the room and applied it to the wound. Tao Qiyue felt his pain as if it were her own, but Chen Jinzhao's expression remained unchanged, as if he were eating or drinking with ease.

"What's there to it?" he smiled.

"The Su family does have terrifying power, but even the Son of Heaven breaks the law, it is the same as a commoner. Moreover, the Su family is not the Son of Heaven."

Tao Qiyue felt a bit dejected.

The Su family was not the Son of Heaven, but they had a status more transcendent than the Son of Heaven in the land of Jiangnan. There was even a saying among the people:

"The law does not punish the Su family!"

Why?

Because the old master of the Su family was a meritorious official who followed the dragon, and he was the pillar of Jiangnan! The great achievements made by the old master in the past earned the Su family a bronze scroll and iron certificate.

Chen Jinzhao also sighed.

The deeply rooted aristocratic families like the Su family were more terrifying than the Ye family that had been overthrown before. The disciples and grandchildren of the Su family were almost all over Jiangnan. Taking Su Canghai as an example, he was the leader of the middle-aged generation in Jiangnan, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would definitely be able to advance to the capital in the future. As long as they did not make any fundamental mistakes, it would be no problem for the Su family to flourish for another hundred years.

The greater Su Canghai's achievements, the denser the roots and tentacles of the Su family in Jiangnan.

It was not easy to uproot them.

At this moment.

Harsh police sirens were heard from outside Qinglong Villa. Chen Jinzhao knew that Wang Zhenliang had arrived.

He picked up Tao Qiyue by the waist and walked down the stairs, "Tonight's matter has nothing to do with you. I will have Wang Zhenliang send you to the hospital later. Forget about what happened tonight once you leave the door of Qinglong Villa."

"What about you?" Tao Qiyue's heart skipped a beat.

Chen Jinzhao's face was filled with a cold smile.

"I will stay and fight with the Su family. After all, I stirred up the storm, so I will naturally quell it."

As he spoke.

Chen Jinzhao carried Tao Qiyue to the living room downstairs.

When Tao Qiyue saw the tragic scene before her, she was dumbfounded and almost suffocated. The strong smell of blood also made her stomach feel intensely uncomfortable!

This was not Qinglong Villa at all; it was clearly a living hell!
