"I don't believe a damn thing you say. You sly old bastard, you're up to no good. You tell me you have no ulterior motives toward the Lu Family, yet you had Zheng Yan disguise himself and infiltrate my family as a lackey—an undercover agent, plain and simple! Now that his identity is exposed, you're spinning tales about some 'connection'. Connection my ass!"
*Lu Mingchuan thought this inwardly, but he kept a calm, genial facade.* He chuckled and said, "You're absolutely right. With the connection between you and the Lu Family, minor matters like this are naturally something we'd assist with. Unfortunately, Lin Shen isn't one of our people. Where he's gone, we wouldn't know. How about this—I'll send someone to investigate his whereabouts immediately. The moment we find him, I'll notify you right away. What do you think?"
"This is your Lu Family's Yashen Base. Do you really need to investigate to know where Lin Shen is?" Zheng Guyuan said, clearly dissatisfied.
