Bureau Zhao mentioned this Lu Cheng to Su Jing more than once, saying that he was a ruthless character. In just over a year, he had entered the business world and won the support of the black market. Even the underworld bosses Hong Jingtian and Chen Yao had to give him face.
Su Jing doesn't believe that such a person has no shady background, but this person is too mysterious. It can only be found that he came back from the United States, and it is difficult to find evidence for other things. The police station can only focus on him. Once some things are involved,
In the business world, the government will consider many aspects, fearing that one incident will affect the whole business, affect stock fluctuations in the business world, and trigger an economic crisis.
There is another strange thing. It is said that Nie Yunfeng is Hong Jingtian's subordinate. Something happened to him. Why didn't Hong Jingtian come? Is it because he was afraid of getting into trouble and deliberately concealed his identity? On the other hand, the victim of this case is the plaintiff.
Chen Yao brought a lot of people to sit in charge, and the seats under the court were packed. It seemed that these people were not good people at first glance.
Su Jing couldn't help but sneer. Whether it was Lu Cheng or Chen Yao, this was the court, not their place. If anyone dared to act rashly, she would be the first to arrest him. Her eyes moved to Nie Yunfeng who was in the dock, and she saw him silently.
Standing there with his head lowered, not making eye contact with anyone, Chen Yao had an angry look on his face at the plaintiff's table.
The judge walked in and the whole place was restrained into silence.
Su Jing walked out of the court after testifying in court. The atmosphere inside was really stagnant. She came out to enjoy the cold air and get some fresh air. Across the road, stood a girl. Her eyes were fixed on the door of the court. When she saw the door being opened,
When someone swarmed out, their eyes suddenly lit up and they took a few steps forward. Then their eyes dimmed again and finally got into the waiting taxi.
The main reason why I noticed her was that this girl gave people a very calm feeling. Her face was still childish, but her eyes were full of attachment. Su Jing turned to look at the court door and walked out.
Lu Cheng was naturally the most dazzling person among them, and just two steps behind him were two people following him. One was the scarred man he met when he took the suspect back to the police station that night, and the other was the man with the scar.
It's Nie Yunfeng.
She was not surprised that Nie Yunfeng was acquitted in this case due to lack of evidence. She had already expected this on the way to the court. The lawyer Lu Cheng hired for him was Han Xiao, the top lawyer in Roucheng.
She is particularly good at this type of criminal cases. And before she walked out of the court, she had already seen that they had come up with favorable time witnesses to prove that Nie Yunfeng was not at home at all that night, and the murder weapon that killed the "Prince" had not yet been found.
As for other witnesses, they all changed their statements.
Yan Hao walked up to her with a sullen face and asked, "Captain Su, why did you come out first and not be inside for the interrogation?"
"It's stuffy inside, come out and get some air." Su Jing gave him a warning look, signaling him not to cause trouble again. They are law enforcers, so they must believe in the ruling of the law. Yan Hao didn't say much this time, but looked at the group of people with a deep look.
People walked by.
Lu Cheng and others passed by like the wind. One of them, a fat man, smiled mockingly at them. The others looked straight ahead with expressionless faces, got into the black car that had been waiting for a long time, and drove away.
.Then Chen Yao and his gang chased him out angrily. When they rushed to the intersection, they only smelled car exhaust smoke and cursed in anger.
Su Jing shook his head and got into the police car. The quality of the two gangs was obvious at a glance, but the conclusion of the case may not be the end, but the beginning. With the temper of a person like Chen Yao, he will never let it go. It seems that this period of time will not be long.
If there is peace, we have to keep an eye on these gangsters again.
###
In the black stretch car, Lu Cheng said calmly: "Alie, go to Hongzhai to see your godfather."
Ali nodded, changed direction, and took another road.
Lu Cheng glanced sideways at the person who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, and asked, "What, what do you think?"
Nie Yunfeng then raised his eyes to look at him, with mixed emotions in his dark eyes, but asked: "What happened to Mr. Hong?" It stands to reason that he would be on trial today, and Hong Lehan would not fail to come. The only possibility is that something happened to Mr. Hong.
Lu Cheng withdrew his gaze and said, "You'll find out once you get there."
The whole journey was silent, and even the noisiest Ma Qi did not dare to say a word. The more silent it was, the more stagnant the atmosphere in the car became. Nie Yunfeng felt a sense of irritation in his heart. Undoubtedly, it was thanks to Lu Cheng's intervention that he was able to walk out unharmed.
Court. But after meeting this man face to face, he really didn't know how to deal with it.
Finally, the long journey came to an end, and the car drove to the door of Mr. Hong's villa.
Several people entered the house, and someone came out to greet them, but everyone's face was gloomy, and there was even sadness in their eyes. Nie Yunfeng was shocked, these people were the people closest to Mr. Hong in the Hong house.
"Take us to meet our godfather." Lu Cheng ordered in a deep voice, with a solemn look on his face.
Walking into Hong Jingtian's bedroom, I saw Hong Lehan sitting on the edge of the bed wiping away tears and sobbing. When he saw them coming in, his eyes were fixed on Nie Yunfeng. Her eyes lit up, and then dimmed. Her appearance at this time was no longer as naughty as before.
, his face was full of haggard and sorrow, and Mr. Hong on the bed made Nie Yunfeng take a breath.
That day, he rushed into Chen Yao's place single-handedly and asked them to hand over Master Hong. Chen Yao's target was himself. If he showed up, Master Hong would naturally be let go. He believed that with Master Hong's identity and status, if Chen Yao didn't want to
If the underworld never has peace, nothing will happen to Mr. Hong. Then the police came and he was taken away. It took about half a month from being detained to being tried.
But who would have known that Mr. Hong was put back, but he was lying on the bed, his face covered with gauze, his face was unrecognizable, it was more like he couldn't even move, and his breath was extremely weak. If it weren't for his open eyes.
His eyes were still rolling, thinking that he might have gone. He had always known that this world was cruel, but he had never felt that this cruel world was so damn inhuman.
In order to avenge his son, Chen Yao has long lost his humanity and ignored the morality of the underworld, not to mention whether it would turn the pot of water upside down. He did not kill Master Hong, but used lynching to beat Master Hong completely unable to move, and became a
A useless person. To Mr. Hong, who has been in power for decades, this is even more cruel than taking his life.
The heartbeat device next to him was still beeping, and the green lines were undulating, proving that he still had vital signs, but it seemed that it might stop at any time.
Lu Cheng walked to the bedside, squatted down, sadness flashed across his eyes, and he called out sadly: "Godfather."
Mr. Hong's eyes turned to look at him, and he tried to take away the respirator with trembling hands. He seemed to have something to say. Hong Lehan, who was next to him, couldn't see it and cried: "Dad, I'll talk to Brother Cheng when you get better."
?”
Lu Cheng turned around and frowned and asked, "Lele, why doesn't your godfather get treatment in the hospital instead of at home?"
"Dad, he doesn't want to live in the hospital. He doesn't have any humanity there. Even if...he still wants to be at home." By the end of the story, she was crying. When the person she arranged to pick up the old man that day, he had already
She was unconscious, no part of her body was intact, and her face was even more bloody. If she hadn't rushed to send the old man to the hospital, she would have really wanted to rush to Chen Yao to fight for her life.
Hong Lehan didn't know if she had done something wrong. Did she force Nie Yunfeng out to exchange her life for another life, and what she got in exchange was her dying father, or maybe even... a corpse? Is this God's selfish punishment for her?
?But why doesn’t retribution come to me?
"Acheng." Hong Jingtian finally took off the respirator with trembling hands. He cast his eyes on Lu Cheng's face and fixed his eyes: "Promise me, for the sake of my godfather, will you take care of Lele?" He knew that he was dying.
, He said these words silently and breathlessly. His daughter was the one he couldn't let go of the most. He didn't know who would spoil her unruly temperament after he left, Lele would have no one to rely on.
Lu Cheng turned to look at Hong Lehan, hesitated for a second and then nodded: "Godfather, don't worry, with me, Lu Cheng, no one will bully Lele." With his ability and strength, he is more than enough to take care of a woman.
.
Hong Jingtian showed a relieved smile: "Acheng, there are so many places for godfather, so you may have to help take care of them. Yun Feng will definitely not be able to take care of him alone. He is still young, so you have to take care of him more."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression changed. Did Mr. Hong mean to hand over to Nie Yunfeng? The light in Lu Cheng's eyes fluctuated, and the cold color was flat and slow, overwhelming, and he lowered his eyes thoughtfully for a moment. Ma Qi was here
The side step forward moved his mouth and wanted to speak, but Lu Cheng glared at him and did not dare to speak. Alie's cold face did not waver, but there was a strange color in his eyes. Only Nie Yunfeng did not move. He knew nothing at this moment.
Expressions may trigger something, so all I can do is remain indifferent.
In the end, Lu Cheng smiled gently and said, "Godfather, don't say this. The most important thing now is that you take good care of your injuries so that you can get well soon."
Hong Jingtian's expression became complicated, but he nodded. He seemed tired after talking, but his eyes still turned to Nie Yunfeng, "Yunfeng, tell me about the process of this case. Lele, you
Take Acheng and the others to sit in the living room downstairs, it's boring to stay here, it smells like medicine."
Hong Lehan didn't want to leave. In fact, after the old man came back, she stayed by his side to take care of him. But when she saw the persistence in her father's eyes, she wiped her tears, got up and led them out of the door.
Before leaving the house, Lu Cheng glanced at Nie Yunfeng meaningfully, their eyes met in the air for a second, and he gave a slight sarcastic smile.
Nie Yunfeng and Hong Ye were the only two people left in the room. Hong Ye waved to him and said, "Yunfeng, come here and sit next to me."
Nie Yunfeng walked over and sat on the chair in front of the bed. He knew that Master Hong had something to say, so he didn't speak.
"Yun Feng, I know you have no interest in Lele, but can you please take care of her for my sake no matter what happens in the future?" The same request was made to Lu Cheng just now, but the meaning is different.
Nie Yunfeng saw the expectation in Master Hong's eyes, and understood that the sentence was not just as simple as the surface meaning, but a promise, a promise that he would take care of Hong Lehan for the rest of his life. But he could not afford this promise, so he did not say it
He lives a life of today and no tomorrow. Even emotionally, he cannot easily accept this promise, but in fact he is letting her down.
He really couldn't afford this promise.

A lifetime commitment cannot be exported at will, because those who wander on the fringes cannot afford a future.
