Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

Bo Bing couldn't quite figure out what Yin Feng was thinking.

In his view, even if Zhi Yu feared Yin Fengzhu's methods and power, he wouldn't so easily send someone to assassinate government members.

"What are you thinking about?"

A woman's voice came from the back seat.

"I just have some doubts," Bo Bing said, arms crossed, staring at the small object hanging on the rearview mirror. "Logically speaking, Zhi Yu isn't a reckless person who has risen to his current position, so why did he dare to make a move in public?"

Bo Bing twirled her fingers and said in a nonchalant tone, "And it just so happens that the poison was given to Li Laosan, an important witness."

The woman's face was hidden in the darkness. She didn't answer his question, but instead said, "Go on."

“After thinking it over, I think Li Laosan shouldn’t be here in this kind of setting,” Bo Bing said, stroking his chin. Seeing that Yin Fengzhu didn’t interrupt him, he continued, “He has neither industry nor expertise. Plus, there are already rumors that he’s turning to the light. His presence here would make him a sitting duck.”

"Being the target might not have been his choice, but there were reasons that forced Li Laosan to come here and become this conspicuous target. But the person holding this target..."

Yin Fengzhu chuckled, his tone revealing a hint of amusement.

"It's me."

Bo Bing looked ahead, but he wasn't that surprised.

It seems this meeting was just a pretext for arresting people.

"The city lord has a truly brilliant plan."

Bo Bing closed her eyes briefly. "How could the city lord be so certain that Zhi Yu's people would choose that time to make their move?"

This is very strange.

If Zhi Yu can refrain from taking action, wouldn't all his efforts be wasted?

“I leaked the news in advance that Li Dai had evidence of their illegal tax evasion and cross-regional resale of tobacco products through transportation and logistics,” said He Zhongtian, who was driving next to Bo Bing. “Furthermore, I scheduled his meeting with the city lord for the evening. Previously, we were not present at the city lord’s meetings, which gave him ample time to make his move.”

After He Zhongtian's kick, Bo Bing knew that this guy was not someone to be trifled with, at least not the amiable middle-aged man he appeared to be.

"Does the deputy commander mean he's getting anxious?"

Bo Bing looked at He Zhongtian.

“He has to be anxious whether he wants to or not,” He Zhongtian smiled, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes becoming more noticeable. “Once these two things are revealed, we’ll basically have a legitimate reason to act, and they’ll have to leave whether they want to or not.”

But how could Li Dai possibly possess these two crucial items? If he had them earlier, would he have needed to deal with Zhi Yu for so long? Shouldn't he have already eliminated them?

Therefore, it is impossible for Li Dai to have such a sufficient and complete chain of evidence!

Bo Bing frowned, trying to figure out the trick. "Is the thing used to trick him?"

“Exactly,” He Zhongtian said, turning the steering wheel around.

That makes sense.

However, Zhi Yu shouldn't be so impulsive as to cause trouble at this critical juncture because of the ambiguous information in Li Dai's hands. Bo Bing thought this and said it.

“It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t speak up; there are plenty of people who will make the decision for him. He’s just a boss who’s hesitant about being offered amnesty by the government. There are so many thugs and henchmen under him who rely on him for a living, but they’re not as hesitant as he is,” He Zhongtian said, his tone unchanged.

"With the group disbanded, those henchmen have lost Zhiyu's protection and are now like rats that everyone wants to kill. They haven't had enough of making money off the big tree, and now you want them to be rats? That's not as comfortable as being a landlord."

Bo Bing lowered her eyes, seemingly lost in thought. "That's true. Once Zhi Yu reaches this position, even if he wants to slow down, his subordinates won't stop until they've made enough money for themselves."

"So, the city lord has leaked this information to me?"

Bo Bing tilted her head slightly, "Those two underlings... are they the two guys who drew life-or-death lots among themselves? Cao Xin probably tried to stop them, but they thought Cao Xin, like Zhi Yu, chickened out when he saw an official."

The young man continued to share his speculation, “The henchmen thought that if one of them did something, he would take the blame. At worst, he would go to jail and wait for the boss to bail him out after things had calmed down—I guess they had done this kind of thing many times before, and they always got away with it. In fact, those who could resolve the matter even received praise from Zhi Yu.”

"There's a prize for taking the blame like in the Young and Dangerous movies," Bo Bing shook her head. "It's just a movie."

"You guessed right."

The woman nodded, not denying it, "For this kind of undisciplined mob, just a little encouragement and instigation are enough to make them go to great lengths for so-called 'gang loyalty'."

"However, times have changed."

He Zhongtian followed up, saying, "We live in an era that values ​​the rule of law, but unfortunately, Zhi Yu's men have not received legal education and cannot understand the delicate balance between Zhi Yu and the government."

No wonder Zhi Yu acted that way back then; he probably really didn't know that his younger brother had drawn the lot behind his back. But Cao Xin must have been aware of it, but why he didn't stop him, or why he failed to stop him, is another story.

The car drove very smoothly.

Bo Bing looked at the hospital gate ahead and asked, "What if Zhi Yu's men don't fall for it either?"

While it's highly likely that uneducated slackers will fall for it, what if they don't?

He did not believe that Lord Yin Feng had no backup plan.

The car smoothly reversed into the parking space next to the flower bed. He Zhongtian unbuckled his seatbelt and opened the door, and Bo Bing followed suit and got out of the car.

Yin Feng got off the back seat and stood next to Bo Bing.

The voice was cold and stern.

"Then I guess I'll just have to play the villain."

Bo Bing blinked.

Did he hear it correctly?

Yin Fengzhu's backup plan was to target Li Dai and then let Zhi Yu renege on his debts.

Deceiving both sides.

As the group walked down the corridor, a receptionist came to greet them and asked questions. As they walked with Yin Fengzhu and He Zhongtian toward the ward, Bo Bing suddenly realized why Yin Fengzhu had told her so much detail.

A cold sweat suddenly broke out on my back.

"What are you thinking about?"

He Zhongtian turned around, smiling, "Aren't you going to hurry up and catch up?"

Bo Bing snapped out of her daze and continued following, "Is the city lord too trusting of me, going into such detail?"

"Afraid of being silenced?"

Yin Fengzhu's words hit the nail on the head, leaving Bo Bing speechless.

"Kind of."

Bo Bing nodded honestly, "I'm just curious, but I don't want to become a dead cat."

He gave a shy, awkward smile. "Besides, I'm just an ordinary citizen... I'm not actually that familiar with the two of you. I'm just afraid of being used as cannon fodder in a battle of gods."

"Ordinary people..."

Yin Fengzhu's eyes were as cold as ice, and his words carried an unfathomable meaning: "It's not like that now."

Thin Ice paused in his breath.

This woman.

"Don't worry, I still have high hopes for young people like you with such ideas when it comes to developing pharmaceutical factories," Yin Fengzhu smiled slightly, revealing her approachable side as a woman. Her noble face softened, and she exuded outstanding temperament.

"After all, I also need to achieve political success."

Bo Bing's face turned green.

Isn't this tantamount to binding his pharmaceutical company to development? Why am I suddenly so talkative? Is Lord Yin Feng's carriage so comfortable to ride in?

What a low-level, overt conspiracy!

It would be a lie to say he's not worried right now.
