Chapter 1448 The Sleeper Appears
"Miss Ruan!"
Epiphyllum screamed and stood in front of Lianyi.
Lianyi was faster than Epiphyllum. With a twist of her wrist, the deadly thread wrapped around the black shadow that rushed out of the door.
"Ah!" After a scream, the lights in the room came on again. There was a black shadow on the ground. Epiphyllum stepped forward and controlled the person, then pulled off the black cloth covering his face. He found that the person was the waiter who almost hit Lianyi just now, and said in a low voice:
"It's you!"
At this time, Heiye's dull voice came from the door:
"Miss Ruan, Epiphyllum, are you okay?"
"We are fine."
Epiphyllum saw Heiye coming over with a dress bag, and responded calmly.
Heiye put Lianyi's replacement dress on the sofa, walked up to the man who was sweating in pain, and said to Tanhua:
"You accompany Miss Ruan to change clothes, I will take the man out first."
"Okay."
Heiye took the man out of the room, and Tanhua said to Lianyi with a cold face:
"Miss Ruan, after the premiere, we'd better return to our residence as soon as possible."
Some people seemed unwilling to give up, and their target was still Lianyi.
Lianyi touched her empty neck and said to Tanhua:
"My jade lock is gone."
After hearing this, Tanhua's eyes immediately swept to Lianyi's empty neck, and then said:
"I will inform Heiye right now, the thing should be on that man."
Then she immediately contacted Heiye, and Lianyi hurriedly changed into a new dress. After she got herself ready, she saw Tanhua's somewhat ugly face.
"What's wrong?"
"The thing is not with that man. Heiye suspects that he has a companion. Your jade lock has been moved. He is adjusting the surveillance."
"There is no need to mobilize a large number of people. It is just an ordinary jade lock. Although it is carved with mutton-fat jade, it is not the one inherited by the Ruan family."
Lianyi said indifferently.
"Then..."
After hearing this, Tanhua knew that there was something hidden, but did not get to the bottom of it. He just didn't know whether to continue to investigate.
"Let Heiye pretend to make the other party think that what he stole is real. Let's play the long game."
Lianyi said with a smile.
"I understand."
Tanhua immediately notified Heiye, looked at his watch and said to Lianyi:
"Miss Ruan, the premiere is about to start. Let's go quickly!"
"Okay."
Lianyi adjusted her skirt folds and left the lounge with Tanhua.
A full quarter of an hour later, warm applause came from the premiere hall, and then it was time to watch the movie.
At this time, in the dark lounge, a black shadow was moving slowly.
Because the lights in the lounge were turned off, it was pitch dark. The shadow seemed unaffected by the darkness and slowly moved to the only exit. He paused at the door for five minutes, as if to make sure that there was no one outside, and then gently opened the door a crack.
After waiting for another three minutes, the shadow's eyes adapted to the lights in the corridor, and then he poked his head out to make sure that the entire corridor was empty. The shadow flashed and left the room completely, then pushed open the door opposite the lounge, and entered the room again with one side of his body, which took only half a minute.
After entering the room, the shadow suddenly felt a chill on his back, and he felt a creepy feeling. He made a quick decision and quickly pulled the door handle to escape from the room.
"Click" the lights in the room suddenly lit up, and then the voice of the night came from behind the other party:
"Philosophy, it's really you!"
The shadow's body stiffened, and then turned his head. There were four or five people standing in the room, with the black muzzles of their guns facing him.
Philosophy turned around helplessly, looking at the anger in his former companion's eyes, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then asked:
"When did you start to doubt me?"
After hearing what the other party said, Hei Ye knew that the other party was indirectly admitting his identity, and said coldly:
"You are our companion who can be trusted. No one has ever doubted you. It was Miss Ruan who pointed out your flaws.
In fact, when you accepted the task of testing Miss Ruan's strength, you wanted to kill Miss Ruan, right?"
Philosophy was stunned, then shook his head and said:
"I just wanted to knock her out, not to kill her. At that time, I was in a sleeping state and would not take the initiative to reveal my identity."
Hei Ye's eyes flashed, and he said nothing. He just waved to the people behind him, controlled Philosophy, and then searched the jade lock necklace from him.
"Take it away!"
The four people in the room took Philosophy away, and Hei Ye went into the screening room in the dark, sat down next to Lian Yi, and returned the jade lock to Lian Yi.
Lianyi was not surprised at all. She put the jade lock back on her neck and asked in a low voice:
"Did he catch the person?"
"Yes."
"Was it him?"
Lianyi stared at the large screen in front of her and asked without turning her head.
"It was him."
Heiye pursed his lips and finally gave an answer.
Lianyi nodded and did not continue to ask questions. Instead, she focused on the plot, which was the climax of the film.
After the premiere ended successfully, Lianyi returned to her residence under the escort of Heiye and Tanhua. They were unusually silent along the way.
In fact, the two of them were not talkative people. They would only speak when Lianyi asked. However, the atmosphere today was particularly dull, and Lianyi did not want to say anything to comfort them. After all, some things still had to be experienced by oneself.
The next day, Lianyi went to work as usual. Monica had already gone to court with Mingmei. Those who did not compromise were still complacent, thinking that Lianyi only spoke harshly and did not take any substantial actions. However, these people regretted it three days later.
There is no regret medicine in the world. These people are destined to have no good results. After being sued by the company, they not only lost negative assets, but were also sent to operate sewing machines. For a time, the Ruan Group was in turmoil. Everyone thought that Lianyi was too cruel.
In the face of these noisy voices, Lianyi still went his own way and quickly replaced key positions in the company with trustworthy people. Those company leaders who left passively were also taken over by excellent professional managers. There was no trouble in the whole process, and even some losses were recovered for the company. Everything was moving in a good direction.
When Ruan Mingye was gathering with his brothers and sisters of the same generation, he was surrounded by everyone, and everyone was asking him about Lianyi.
Ruan Mingye was also helpless. He was just a handyman now, and he followed all the arrangements. He knew nothing except Lianyi's future plans for the Ruan Group.
The little white flower of the Ruan family, who had questioned Lianyi before, asked in tears:
"Mingye, why didn't you tell me in advance? I would definitely persuade my father to let go. Now he has been arrested for three days, and he is not even allowed to meet. He can't write two Ruan characters with one stroke. How can she be so cruel! I am also her relative!"
Ruan Mingye rolled his eyes and said coldly:
"The opportunity was given to your father, but he didn't cherish it!"
Good evening, my dears! Feng Ling lay down for another day yesterday. She couldn't stand up because of the back pain. She rested for a whole morning today. She felt better in the afternoon before getting up to write. She only wrote one chapter and uploaded it first. Feng Ling will try to write another chapter. Because of poor health, please forgive me.
