Chapter 1309: I’m Not Lying to You
However, he didn’t realize that his actions actually gave a "no silver here" impression. After listening to his words, Mu Qiancheng immediately started to search him.
Wu Ding’s face changed, wanting to stop Mu Qiancheng’s actions. But he couldn’t, after all, there was still a knife at his throat.
Mu Qiancheng moved quickly, and in no time, he had thoroughly searched Wu Ding, pulling out all the items on him, including the antidote for the poison affecting Jiang Xue.
Wu Ding looked at the items Mu Qiancheng had found, feeling somewhat guilty, and dared not meet his gaze. However, Mu Qiancheng didn’t care, taking out the small bottle and asking, "Is this the antidote?"
Wu Ding wanted to deny it. But before he could open his mouth, Mu Qiancheng directly said, "You better think it over."
With just that sentence, Wu Ding had to put away his little plan and then said, "Yes, this is the antidote."
After hearing that, Mu Qiancheng gave Wu Ding a cold glance, then opened the lid, took a look at the contents inside, and set it aside.
After finding the antidote, Mu Qiancheng wasn’t concerned about the other items. He looked at Wu Ding coldly and said, "Considering that you’re somewhat sensible, I’ll give you a quick death!"
"Wait!" After hearing Mu Qiancheng’s words, Wu Ding’s face changed and he said, "Only I know how to use and the dosage of the antidote, so you can’t kill me."
Mu Qiancheng laughed coldly after hearing this and said, "Wu Ding, if you’re looking for an excuse to stay alive, find a good one, not this one."
"This is not an excuse, I’m not lying to you, really!"
"Really?" Mu Qiancheng laughed coldly, then gave Wu Ding no chance, pressing on his neck, just about to end his life when a voice came through.
"Wait!" With the voice, Mr. Lan walked in with a few soldiers.
Seeing Mr. Lan and the people he brought, Mu Qiancheng frowned, but the dagger on Wu Ding’s neck remained unmoved.
"Who are you?" Without waiting for Mu Qiancheng to speak, Mr. Lan asked first.
"Sir, before you ask others, shouldn’t you introduce yourself first?" Mu Qiancheng raised an eyebrow slightly, giving Mr. Lan a glance. He didn’t know Mr. Lan, but he could tell his general status.
After all, he was accompanied by several soldiers, and those soldiers were clearly specially trained.
"My last name is Lan, I’m with the State Security Bureau." Mr. Lan looked at Mu Qiancheng and said. He didn’t know where Mu Qiancheng came from, and he surprisingly found out where Wu Ding lived before they did.
He was contemplating whether Mu Qiancheng was a friend or foe. If he was an enemy, they had to capture him together. But if he was a friend, he might be able to convince Mu Qiancheng to join the State Security Bureau.
Mu Qiancheng had previously investigated the reason for Jiang Xue’s assassination attempt and knew it was because she saved a certain high-ranking official. So when he heard Mr. Lan’s introduction, he immediately understood and then said, "I am Mu Qiancheng, Jiang Xue’s husband."
Mr. Lan initially had some wariness towards Mu Qiancheng, but upon hearing that he was Jiang Xue’s husband, a smile appeared on his face and he said, "So it’s you, I’ve heard you’re also a soldier, and an outstanding one at that, no wonder."
"Mr. Lan overpraises me, I’m just an ordinary soldier." Mu Qiancheng responded modestly, his face full of humility.
