Hearing the timid man's final voice of surrender, Ye Lan's movements stopped for an instant.
The knife in her hand stopped directly on the man's thigh. It was only a centimeter away from falling into his thigh.
Seeing Ye Lan stop, the timid man also breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, Gu Manman also breathed a sigh of relief.
She is just an ordinary person. Where has she seen such a scene?
Moreover, she didn't want Gu Zichen to see such a scene.
Leng Aotian narrowed his eyes and continued to ask: "Okay, let me ask you, did you just want to kill Gu Zichen?"
The timid man nodded repeatedly: "Yes, we want to kill Gu Zichen, because this is the order we received. The order is that as long as Gu Zichen is seen, he will be killed, and the body will be taken back to receive the award."
Although the two men beside him kept glaring at the timid man and warning him not to speak, they still did not stop him.
Leng Aotian nodded slowly, as if everything was as he expected: "Okay, let me ask you, who gave the order?"
"He's our boss." The timid man replied immediately.
Leng Aotian narrowed his eyes: "Who is your boss? Is there any conflict with Gu Zichen?"
The timid man shook his head: "Our boss is a criminal on the run, and he has no conflict with Gu Zichen."
"Since there is no conflict, why kill Gu Zichen?" Leng Aotian frowned.
The timid man shrank his neck and continued: "Because almost all of us are criminals, we can't go out to work, and we will be discovered if we go out. So in order to support ourselves, we usually take on tasks and help
People get paid after completing their tasks.”
"Just like this, we did it after receiving the mission."
Leng Aotian nodded in understanding: "You mean, you want to kill Gu Zichen because you received the mission to kill Gu Zichen?"
The timid man nodded repeatedly: "Yes! That's it! I've told you everything I know, can you let me go now?"
Leng Aotian stood up from the chair and squatted in front of the timid man.
He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the man's chin, then narrowed his eyes and asked: "One more thing, as long as you answer me honestly, then I will naturally let you go."
The timid man asked quietly: "What's the matter?"
Leng Aotian looked at it and asked, "Do you know who the employer is who gave you the order?"
The timid man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know! How could I know?! I really don't know this information! Just let me go! I beg you!"
"It seems that you still don't want to tell the truth."
Leng Aotian stood up and waved his hand.
Ye Lan raised the knife in his hand again. Just as the knife in the gap passed through the air and then fell heavily, the timid man could no longer bear the torture.
He shouted: "Wait! Wait! I know! I know! Stop cutting my flesh!"
Ye Lan stopped what he was doing again: "Tell me, who is the employer!"
The timid man shook his body: "The employer has a great background and is not someone you can mess with. Even if you knew about it, there is nothing you can do! I only found out the employer's information by eavesdropping by chance...
"
Leng Aotian patted the armrest of the chair: "Stop being so long-winded, just say."
The timid man glanced at Gu Zichen who was not far away, and then said slowly: "The employer is Mrs. Li, Gu Manman (Gu Qingqing)!"
Upon hearing the man's words, everyone present was shocked and seemed unable to recover.
Leng Aotian also frowned in confusion: "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"How could I be wrong! I heard the boss and Gu Manman (Gu Qingqing) making a transaction on the phone at that time!"
The timid man said very firmly, although he was also surprised, but this is indeed the truth!
Leng Aotian and Ye Lan looked at each other and had the same doubt in their hearts.
How could it be Gu Qingqing?
Gu Zichen is Gu Qingqing’s child! How could she personally pay someone to kill Gu Zichen!
Hearing the man's words, Gu Manman on the side was not too surprised.
Because all of this was within her expectations.
All of this was indeed done by Gu Qingqing!
Gu Zichen walked away from Gu Manman, and stopped next to the timid man, as if he wanted to demand the truth.
"Are you telling the truth? Is it really that Gu Manman from the Li family?"
The timid man nodded repeatedly: "Every word is true, not a lie! If I tell a lie, I will be struck by thunder and die!"
After hearing the man's poisonous oath, Gu Zichen had no choice but to believe him.
He clenched his fists. Since it was Gu Qingqing who did it! Then... Li Zichen must have been involved, right?
Li Zichen and Gu Qingqing joined forces to kill him.
Because only Li Zichen knows all his secrets. Judging from what happened before the alliance, if Li Zichen hadn't united with Gu Qingqing to deal with him, Gu Qingqing would not have succeeded so easily...
Gu Zichen's frown seemed a little sad, Li Zichen, do you really want me to die?
Gu Manman's hand gently placed on Gu Zichen's shoulder: "Zichen, don't be too sad. That woman (Gu Qingqing) is not worth your sadness."
Gu Zichen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I know, how could the person who wants to kill me be my mommy?"
The only thing he was sad about was Li Zichen, and Li Zichen actually didn't want him to live.
Gu Manman seemed a little happy: "Zi Chen, what do you mean by this? Do you believe me? Do you believe that I am the real Gu Manman?"
"Well, I believe you. I believe you can explain to me all the doubts I had before."
Gu Zichen nodded slightly.
Gu Manman nodded, and she held Gu Zichen's little hand tightly, showing a little excitement.
"Yes! I can explain all this, as long as you are willing to listen! But now, we have more important things to do!"
She had wanted to explain all this before, but they didn't believe her and didn't give her a chance to explain.
Leng Aotian stood up and said, "Ye Lan, wait and send them all to the police station."
"Okay, Master Leng."
Ye Lan nodded seriously.
Gu Manman stopped Ye Lan's behavior: "Wait a minute, Sister Lan, it's not possible yet! We can't send them to the police station yet!"
Ye Lan turned back in confusion: "What? Don't you send them to the police station?"
Gu Manman nodded seriously, her beautiful eyes full of determination: "Yes, I will take them to the Li family to expose Gu Qingqing's true face! I can't let Li Zichen and Li Jinze continue to be deceived!"
