Chapter 1099 - 1097: Red Butterfly
Everyone present burst into laughter upon hearing Lu Dapao's words.
Huang Bo seized the moment to retort, "Da Pao, I can't believe you actually said that. You've truly impressed me."
Lin Chuan said, "Da Pao, since you and Keiko have a pure relationship, why don't you bring Keiko here quickly and settle the matter with Bozi."
"Right, right." Everyone echoed Lin Chuan.
Lu Dapao chuckled, "No way, we're planning to have a new-style wedding with Keiko."
Zhou Kai said, "I think you just don't dare to talk to Keiko. Do you need us brothers to help out? I happen to have Keiko's number. I can give her a call."
After saying that, he pretended to take out his phone.
Lu Dapao hurriedly said, "Kai, stop causing trouble. We're discussing Huang Bo's marriage, why are you turning it on me?"
Zhou Rui walked in just then, and upon hearing Lu Dapao's words, she laughed, "Da Pao, what are you bragging about here again?"
"Little Spicy, do you take Lu Dapao as someone who brags?" Lu Dapao replied to Zhou Rui.
Zhou Rui smirked and said, "Da Pao, stop with the nonsense. Since everyone is here, I have some serious business to discuss with everyone."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Kai asked.
Zhou Rui glanced at Lin Chuan and said, "Now that Sichuan University Group is on the right track, Lin Chuan and I have discussed and decided to list the company. We want to hear your opinions."
"I raise both hands in favor." Lu Dapao was the first to express his opinion.
Zhou Kai followed Lu Dapao and said, "Without Brother Chuan, none of us brothers would be here today. As long as Brother Chuan agrees, I, Zhou Kai, will fully support it."
Taozi said, "Kai, you're right. Without Boss Lin, we wouldn't be where we are today. I have no objections, and I'll follow Boss Lin's lead."
Huang Bo said, "I'll also follow Brother Chuan's lead. Whatever Brother Chuan asks us to do, we'll do."
Most of the key members of Jvyi Gang were present except for Li Qiang. Zhou Rui, seeing that no one had objections to the company's listing, said, "Great, let's settle this. I will promptly arrange for the finance department to report the data to the City Committee and the stock exchange."
Lin Chuan said, "Dear brothers, with the listing of Sichuan University, the company will offer you some shares, meaning you will all become shareholders of Sichuan University Group. We'll discuss the specific plan in a dedicated meeting later."
Zhou Kai and the others couldn't express enough gratitude to Lin Chuan in words. Indeed, without Lin Chuan, they would probably still be insignificant thugs.
Zhou Rui said, "Lin Chuan, regarding the listing, I've prepared all the documents on my end, but we'll need your help with the City Committee."
Lin Chuan chuckled, "Sure, no problem."
As they were having a lively conversation, a subordinate of Jvyi Gang entered the room and said to Lin Chuan, "Boss, someone is looking for you outside."
Lin Chuan stood up upon hearing this and asked, "Who is looking for me?"
The subordinate shook his head and said, "I don't know her. It's a woman."
Upon hearing that a woman was looking for Lin Chuan, Zhou Rui glanced at him with wide eyes.
"Brothers, you all continue chatting; I'll go take a look." Lin Chuan said and then walked out.
Outside, he saw a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair smiling at him. Lin Chuan exclaimed, "Fang Yuan, why are you here?"
Not having seen Fang Yuan for a long time, Lin Chuan was surprised that she would suddenly come to find him.
"What, don't you recognize me?" Fang Yuan's pretty face was full of smiles, her long hair gently swaying in the breeze.
Lin Chuan gave an embarrassed smile and said, "Of course not, I just didn't expect you to come looking for me. Come on, let's find a quiet place to sit down."
With Fang Yuan, he found a nearby café and sat down, ordering two cups of coffee. At that moment, a lightbulb went off in Lin Chuan's head: How could he have overlooked Fang Yuan? She was the leader of the Fire Butterfly Organization.
He had been investigating the Fire Butterfly Organization all along, yet he had forgotten about Fang Yuan.
"Fang Yuan, I want to ask you something, and you have to answer me truthfully." Lin Chuan looked at Fang Yuan with a serious expression.
Fang Yuan took a sip of coffee and looked back at Lin Chuan, saying, "What is it?"
Lin Chuan hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Two years ago, in Dubai, the youngest daughter of Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom, Manler, went missing. Was it your organization that did it?"
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment and then said, "Lin Chuan, I can tell you very responsibly, our organization never did such a thing. Besides, no one from our organization has ever been to Dubai."
Lin Chuan was taken aback and frowned, "Does everyone in your organization have a butterfly tattoo on their arm?"
Fang Yuan said, "That's correct."
Lin Chuan said, "That makes sense. Based on the information I have, Princess Manler's disappearance is linked to people with a butterfly tattoo on their arm. If it wasn't your group, who else could it be?"
Fang Yuan furrowed her brow, saying slowly, "I don't really know, but to my knowledge, there's a mysterious organization in Southeast Asia called Red Butterfly. They also have a butterfly tattoo on their arms, but it's a different color than ours."
"Oh, can you tell me more about this organization?" Lin Chuan asked.
Fang Yuan said, "Red Butterfly is mainly active in Malaysia and Thailand. It's a very mysterious assassin organization that's assassinated many famous figures over the years. That's all I know."
If what Fang Yuan said is true, then Princess Manler's disappearance must have been done by the Red Butterfly Organization.
Lin Chuan looked down and took a sip of coffee. Princess Manler's disappearance was becoming increasingly complicated. It seemed he'd have to make a trip to Malaysia.
Thinking about Princess Manler, Lin Chuan's mind drifted to Helen.
Helen had been apart from him for a while; he wondered how she was doing over in Beijing.
"Lin Chuan, what are you thinking about?" Fang Yuan asked, noticing his silence.
Lin Chuan shook his head, smiling, "Nothing much."
Fang Yuan pursed her lips, "Liar. You're thinking about that woman again, aren't you?"
Lin Chuan laughed, "With a beauty like you beside me, how could I think of anyone else?"
"Smarty pants." Fang Yuan gave Lin Chuan a charming glance, her pretty face filled with allure.
Fang Yuan once said she'd always be Lin Chuan's secret lover, and Lin Chuan remembered her words. Seeing Fang Yuan's alluring expression now stirred something unruly in his heart.
"Have you not thought about me?" Lin Chuan asked, looking at Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan's face turned a shade of red, "We haven't seen each other for so long, and you didn't even call. How could I think of you?"
Lin Chuan whispered, "Really didn't think of me, huh? Oh, that's so heartbreaking." He put on a look of pitifulness.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but laugh, "You really are a rascal."
Lin Chuan chuckled, "Before you, I'm just a rascal. Want to join this rascal for some alone time somewhere?"
Fang Yuan's face showed a shy look, but she didn't refuse Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan was delighted, paid the bill, and left the cafe with Fang Yuan. They found a nearby hotel and booked a room.
As soon as they entered the room, Lin Chuan pulled Fang Yuan into his arms, kissing her passionately.
Fang Yuan responded playfully, struggling to escape Lin Chuan's embrace. But Lin Chuan wouldn't let her go, extending his right arm to pull her back into his arms.
The pull made Fang Yuan fall completely into his embrace. Lin Chuan kissed her mouth without hesitation while his right hand slipped under her clothing.
Fang Yuan let out a long, low moan as if her body was melting, passionately responding to Lin Chuan.
Fang Yuan's mouth emitted a painfully pleasurable moan, further exciting Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan's teasing was like a key unlocking her desires, sending waves of deep, bone-deep stimulation and pleasure through her body.
Fang Yuan furrowed her brow slightly, biting her lip hard but making no sound.
Passion quickly ignited, and the two rolled onto the bed.
...
Zhang Wenhui and Song Xiaojia arrived in Linjiang City and quickly located Li Dahai's home with the local police station's cooperation.
Li Dahai wasn't home; only his parents were there.
Through patient persuasion, Li Dahai's parents finally agreed to cooperate with Zhang Wenhui and Song Xiaojia, calling Li Dahai and falsely claiming his mother was critically ill, urging him to return home quickly.
Though Li Dahai wasn't very remarkable, he was very filial. Upon hearing of his mother's illness, he rushed back overnight.
As soon as Li Dahai reached the doorstep, officers waiting in ambush immediately arrested him and promptly transported him back to Jiangbei City.
In the interrogation room, Li Dahai sat in a chair with handcuffs and shackles, facing Zhang Wenhui and Song Xiaojia.
"Li Dahai." Song Xiaojia's voice was stern and commanding.
Li Dahai raised his head, looking at Zhang Wenhui and Song Xiaojia.
"Do you know why we brought you here?" Song Xiaojia said, glaring at Li Dahai with authority.
