Chapter 255 Everyone has their own agenda
With the presence of two officials and the people of Yinsu, "cleaning" became a simple matter.
Bo Bing didn't put any effort into the final touches.
It's daybreak.
Yin Su was uninjured, while Lü Shuang had several open wounds, but fortunately they were not very serious. After being treated with medicine, disinfected, and bandaged, she was ready to recover.
Three ambitious individuals, each with their own agendas, sat on the sofa, none of them speaking first.
Bo Bing stared at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, while the pale blue wall lamp stared back at him.
It was Lü Shuangxian who lost her composure; her composure was not as refined as Yin Su's, nor as nonchalant as Bo Bing's.
"Tell me about it?"
The woman crossed her arms, and the snakes on her body, after a night of smoke and fire, were visibly weakened, but still docilely slithered along her skin.
Lu Shuang's long legs were casually draped over the coffee table, a gesture that a lady should not make. But clearly, the owner of those legs was no lady either.
"What do you want to hear?"
Bo Bing, dressed in a bathrobe, leaned back relaxed on the sofa, holding the whiskey glass with only three fingers. The ice cubes gently tapped against the glass, the warmth of her hand evaporating into condensation on the glass's surface, leaving a clear watermark.
Lu Shuang's eyes scanned the young man's body and face. Without the disguise, the guy looked like an ordinary Chinese man with black hair and black eyes. Judging from his appearance alone, he had absolutely no connection with the original man. His features were strangely gentle and simple.
"The doctor is amazing. Where did you find him? Did you have fillers and bone shaving done?"
The woman's cool hand pinched the young man's face, beginning to check for signs of bone-shaving surgery. "No, that's not right. It's not just that; the shape of his skull has also changed."
Yin Su frowned slightly.
Lu Shuang didn't care about Yin Su's gaze. He reached his hand even more brazenly towards the young man's collar, his face full of caution. The sensation under his hand wasn't a filling, but real muscle and blood vessels.
The woman frowned, seemingly dissatisfied with the result. The snakes on her body began to slowly crawl up Bo Bing's abdomen and legs, preparing to continue examining the young man's joints and bones.
Bo Bing did not resist Lü Shuang's examination.
Seeing that Lü Shuang's snake had already burrowed into the hem of the young man's bathrobe, Yin Su finally couldn't sit still any longer. He frowned slightly, grabbed the seven-inch mark of the silver-ringed snake on Bo Bing's thigh, threw it into Lü Shuang's arms, and said coldly, "Don't go too far."
The man's eyes darkened.
Why didn't her godfather refuse Lü Shuang?
When did it start?
When did the godfather contact Lü Shuang?
Did the news of the "Goodnight" explosion earlier, and the informant around me, come from Shuangkou?
That's strange, it doesn't make sense.
During the standoff at the port, Lü Shuang's reaction clearly indicated he was unaware of his own identity... What happened? Could it be that he had more than one backup plan? Was Lü Shuang just a smokescreen?
It seems that the godfather still has many secrets... Yin Su thought, this feeling of discovering that things are out of control is really unpleasant.
"The check-up is over. What are your thoughts?"
Bo Bing ignored the inexplicably displeased man next to her—she still had a score to settle with this guy, so naturally she wasn't going to give him a friendly look.
Lu Shuang's leopard-like eyes were fixed on the young man's body. "I can understand plastic surgery, but how were his height and bone length altered?"
She paused, "It's not a broken bone... no, the proportions of the bones are even normal, unless someone has a magical hand that can cut each bone evenly and then reconnect it without a trace..."
Bo Bing raised an eyebrow; Lü Shuang had actually thought of the same thing as her.
"Leaving aside whether anyone can do it, the process itself is more like torture than plastic surgery. It won't be easy for them to stand up and move around after that."
Lü Shuang continued to express her views.
She had personally witnessed Bo Bing's nimble movements, a level of agility and strength beyond that of a normal person, something no one with a broken bone could achieve.
No wonder her forces couldn't find a trace of Feng Tianhan. If he hadn't shown up himself, who could have found him?
"In fact, I can hardly believe it either. It's all thanks to the original owner of this body," Bo Bing said, her dark eyes calm and still, her aura no less imposing than the other two.
"First of all, let me clarify that I am not crazy. I used to be a typical materialist, but this is indeed a case of being resurrected."
He spread his hands and looked at Lü Shuang.
"what?"
Lu Shuang's fingers trembled for a second, then she calmed down. "Don't go crazy."
Bo Bing said, "That's a fact."
Lu Shuang accepted Bo Bing's words in just one second, "That's fine too, better to live a miserable life than to die a good death."
Can't you wish me something good?
Bo Bing gave a light sneer.
“I’d like to,” Lü Shuang shifted her posture and gestured to Bo Bing with her eyes, “What’s wrong with this guy?”
Bo Bing placed the empty glass on the coffee table and forcefully changed the subject, "I'm hungry, I'm going to go find something to eat, you guys chat first."
The air suddenly became still.
"Tsk."
Lu Shuang glanced at Yin Su, looking utterly bored. "Everyone's gone. Aren't you tired of pretending?"
Yin Su, who prides himself on being a gentleman, feels that he has great patience with women...
—That's practically the limit.
Fortunately, I'm not exactly a true gentleman either.
"Chief Lü... seems to care a lot about my relationship with my godfather?"
Yin Su toyed with the exquisite wine vessel in his hand. "What are you trying to do—is it to sow discord?"
A face as beautiful as a peach blossom.
He was incredibly good at smiling, and incredibly shrewd; he truly lived up to his nickname "Smiling Tiger." But his tone wasn't pleasant; anyone could hear the barb hidden beneath his gentle words.
"Just out of curiosity," Lü Shuang retorted immediately, clearly not one to back down. "After all, someone's role... seems to be merely that of an heir, insignificant to the plan. Don't overstep your bounds and make a fool of yourself."
"Whether it's overstepping boundaries... is not for the leader to decide," Yin Su said with a gentle smile. His peach blossom eyes were incredibly warm under the lamplight, yet they also carried a cold warmth. His voice was indifferent. "On the contrary, the leader has time to worry about other people's family affairs. He should clean up his own mess instead. Don't try to lure the snake out of its hole in front of the godfather."
"Oh dear, what should I do? Meddling in family matters... I'm really like the wicked stepmother of Snow White. That's not what you wanted me to say, is it?"
Lu Shuang covered her mouth and chuckled, then sneered, "You think he doesn't know my intentions? You're too naive. Who can force him if he doesn't want to?"
“Return these words to the leader verbatim.”
Yin Su was still smiling, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in his smile.
Sparks flew between their gazes.
The cold blue wall lamp still stared at the two people confronting each other in the hall, like the Eye of Ugato, estimating the weight of their souls.
Bo Bing stared at the food in the refrigerator, beginning to weigh the pros and cons.
Everyone has their own agenda.
