"Very well." Seeing those security personnel gradually move away from the Rolls-Royce, Ling Chen couldn’t help but smirk and nodded, saying, "Mr. Jack, don’t worry, as long as you cooperate well, I won’t harm even a hair on you."

As he spoke, the car door of the Rolls-Royce’s driver’s seat was opened, and Zhu Qing sat inside from outside. The engine started, and Zhu Qing drove the Rolls-Royce slowly out of the villa.

On the road, Ling Chen glanced back and saw two Mercedes cars following behind. The other party, concerned for Jack’s safety, kept a safe distance, not daring to get too close.

"Mr. Ling." At this time, Jack seemed to have calmed down from the panic and spoke, "We are all friends and partners. If there’s any issue, perhaps we should talk things out clearly. What do you think?"

Ling Chen smiled slightly, lowered the muzzle of the gun a bit, and said, "Mr. Jack, I just want to know one thing: did you betray us? You should know everything that happened today at Yingtai Group. You guaranteed me that everything was arranged well and our identities were foolproof, but the outcome didn’t match your promise."

"Mr. Ling, you should understand there are no guarantees in such matters."

"I know. However, Yingtai Group somehow knew we were coming, and today Beison called you, and you asked him for our address. As a result, Yingtai’s people went straight there. Mr. Jack, do you think all of this is a coincidence?"

"A misunderstanding! Truly a misunderstanding, Mr. Ling." Jack quickly explained, "I just wanted to help you; I had no intention of framing you. The appearance of Yingtai’s people was purely coincidental. Mr. Ling, think about it, I am an enemy of Yingtai Group. They might be monitoring my phone, causing the information to leak."

Hearing this, Ling Chen smirked and said, "Mr. Jack, if you say so, I really can’t find a reason to refute. Are you trying to tell me someone on my side betrayed me?" With that, Ling Chen stretched his hand toward Jack.

Seeing Ling Chen’s gesture, Jack asked confusedly, "Mr. Ling, what are you doing?"

"Nothing much. Don’t you want to prove your innocence? Let me see your phone. This request isn’t excessive, is it?"

Jack’s expression changed slightly as he forced a smile and said, "Mr. Ling, as I said, it was all a misunderstanding. Please trust me."

"Quite the contrary, I don’t trust you at all, so..." Ling Chen raised the gun he was holding, "Mr. Jack, you better not force me to be rough."

Facing the dark muzzle, Jack reluctantly took out his phone from his pocket and handed it to Ling Chen.

After flipping through the contacts and previous call records, Ling Chen’s face immediately fell. Looking at Jack, he said, "Aren’t you supposed to be an enemy of Yingtai Group? Please explain why you have Seland’s number? Also, you called him yesterday, and the call lasted three minutes."

Jack hurriedly said, "Mr. Ling, I can explain, it’s..."

Bam!

Before Jack could finish speaking, Ling Chen had already pulled the trigger. Immediately, Jack screamed in pain, clutching his thigh with both hands. However, blood still flowed through his fingers, rapidly staining his trousers red.

"You should feel lucky that my people didn’t suffer any losses, otherwise this bullet wouldn’t have missed." Ling Chen squinted and said, "Now, tell me, what’s your relationship with Yingtai Group. Remember! You better speak the truth, or I can’t guarantee where the next bullet will hit."

"I... I’ll say..." Jack endured the pain in his thigh and hurriedly said, "I’m a pawn arranged by Seland."

"Pawn? What do you mean?"

"Everything you heard about Senyu Group is fake. My family is not dead at all; they’re living well abroad. Seland arranged this to create an enemy for Yingtai Group. This way, if anyone wants to trouble Yingtai Group, they might end up working with me."

Ling Chen nodded and said, "I get it. All of this is a trap set up by Yingtai Group. A lot of people have probably fallen for it, right?"

"Yingtai Group has many enemies. Each year, quite a few people come to me looking to cooperate. But they all ended up dead by Seland’s hands."

"Does anyone else know about your cooperation with Yingtai Group besides you?"

"No, it’s always been a direct line between me and Seland. No one knows about our relationship. The fewer people know about this, the better."

"Very well, now call Seland and arrange a meeting."

"This... Mr. Ling, if I do that, then I..."

"Don’t worry, I won’t harm you. I just want you to pass a message to Seland." As he spoke, Ling Chen used his phone to send a file to Jack’s phone.

"Send this file to Seland. I believe he will contact you proactively."

Hearing this, Jack skeptically sent the file to Seland. After about ten minutes, Jack’s phone finally rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, Jack, under Ling Chen’s gesture, connected the call and turned on the speaker.

"Jack, where did you get the material you sent me earlier?" Seland’s voice came through the phone, tinged with urgency.

"Someone anonymously contacted me saying they wanted to make a deal, asking if I was interested. They gave me this material, and if I was interested, they would provide another piece. Mr. Seland, the strengthening agent mentioned in this material is identical to the new weapon your side introduced. Could it be someone internal causing trouble?"

After listening to Jack’s response, Ling Chen nodded silently. This Jack had a good memory, remembering everything he was told clearly.

"Impossible!" Seland replied firmly, "The strengthening agent’s information is only partly with me, the rest is with Mr. Zhu. He...he wouldn’t do such a thing. Yingtai Group has treated him well, he shouldn’t act like that."

"Mr. Seland, should I contact that person again?"

"Fine, let me know as soon as there’s any news."

After the call ended, Jack looked at Ling Chen and said, "Mr. Ling, I did everything you asked, so..."

"No rush." Ling Chen took out his phone and sent another document to Jack’s phone, instructing, "Later you send this document to Seland."

"What’s this?"

"It’s the formula for the strengthening agent. I believe Mr. Seland will be very interested. Also, tell him, the asking price for this document is five billion US Dollars."
