My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce-Chapter 525 - : What Secret Does Director Lan Actually Know
Chapter 525: Chapter 525: What Secret Does Director Lan Actually Know
Lan Ruikang said in a heartbroken tone, “The police deal with too many cases every day. They’re too busy to devote enough resources to finding a hit-and-run driver. So, I have come to you. I know you have the ability to find this person quickly.”
Lu Lingche flatly rejected him: “Director Lan, you flatter me, I don’t have that ability. If this is what you’re here for, you may as well leave.”
Lan Ruikang was somewhat anxious, “You have! I know you have this ability! Don’t be hasty in refusing me, I won’t let you help me for nothing, I have a secret to exchange with you!”
Lu Lingche glanced at him, “A secret?”
“Yes, a secret! A very important secret!”
“Not interested.”
“What if I say, this secret has something to do with your elder brother?”
The expression on Lu Lingche’s face suddenly turned cold, his voice carried a hint of severity: “Director Lan, I hope you know what you’re saying!”
“I know what I’m saying, I’m not lying to you. This secret is indeed related to your elder brother, and even to you. Believe me, this secret is really important to you, you won’t regret making this trade!”
“Then tell me a part of it, and if it really has value, I’ll help you.”
“I can’t say more. Only after you help me will I tell you. Moreover, I demand not only to find the hit-and-run driver, but also the person behind the driver who killed my student! I want to take revenge!”
Lu Lingche glared at him coldly, “You’re asking for a lot!”
With confidence, Lan Ruikang said: “That’s because the secret I have is valuable enough to make such a demand. President Lu, I beg you to help me. Only you have the capability to investigate this.”
However, Lu Lingche suddenly said: “Director Lan, when you’ve asked for my help previously, you’ve always offered your daughter as the bargaining chip. Why is she not included this time?” frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Lan Ruikang fell silent.
He no longer used his daughter as a bargaining chip because this time, what he was offering was his daughter.
Moreover, he knew very well that Lu Lingche wasn’t Lu Shengqing, so using his daughter as the bargaining chip wouldn’t yield much from Lu Lingche.
Lu Lingche was a ruthless man. To truly move him, he’d have to offer something substantial.
Yuyi was not enough.
After a while, Lan Ruikang said in a low voice: “President Lu, the secret I brought to exchange is more valuable than my own daughter. Now, do you understand my sincerity?”
“Sincerity? You’re not willing to share anything, just luring me with a secret. How would I know how valuable your secret is? Perhaps to me, your secret is worthless.”
“President Lu, this secret is not only known by me, but others as well. However, only I will tell you. The others wouldn’t dare because the implications are too great. Everyone is keeping this secret for their own benefit. If it wasn’t for my student’s accident, I wouldn’t tell you either.”
Director Lan stood up, “If President Lu has considered making this deal, I welcome you to visit me at the hospital at any time. Now, I’ll take my leave.”
Having said this, he turned around and left the reception room in a decisive manner.
Seeing him leave, the assistant couldn’t help but ask, “President Lu, what kind of secret does Director Lan know?”
“I’m not sure, but judging from his manner, it must be a big secret.”
“What if he’s trying to deceive you?”
Lu Lingche was indifferent, his tone firm, “He wouldn’t dare to deceive me, he’s going all in.”
“Are you going to help him then?”
“Yes.”
The assistant was shocked: “Huh? You’re really going to help him? Then why didn’t you agree just now?”
“Because in negotiation, it’s not wise to show your hand too quickly.”
Lu Lingche said calmly, but his mind was filled with thoughts about the secret that Lan Ruikang had mentioned.
Lan Ruikang said this secret was known by others as well, so who were these other people? Why did they know a secret about his elder brother and were not willing to tell him?
