Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1677 Death without evidence

"Young Master, actually... we haven't reached the final moment yet."

The subordinate hesitated for a moment, but still mustered up the courage to speak, his voice low and cautious, as if afraid of uttering a single wrong word.

The masked man slightly raised his head, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Oh, what do you mean?"

His voice was deep and hoarse, as if squeezed from the depths of his throat.

The subordinate took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, and said, "Young Master, although the current situation is somewhat unfavorable for us, it is not without hope."

"Hmm, tell me in detail."

“Young Master, so what if Wang Laowu’s parents are controlled and protected by Fu Yanchen? Wang Laowu is the key figure in the whole incident. As long as we keep Wang Laowu quiet and prevent him from ever speaking, even if Fu Yanchen has great abilities, he won’t be able to trace it back to you.”

"After all, with the dead unable to testify, he has no evidence to identify you. The only people who have seen your true face are Wang Laowu and me. I... will not betray you, young master."

As the subordinate spoke, he observed the masked man's reaction, his eyes revealing an expectation that his analysis would be approved by the young master.

The masked man listened quietly, his fingers tapping lightly on the table, making a rhythmic "tap-tap" sound.

The sound was exceptionally clear in the quiet room, like the beating of his heart as he pondered.

After a moment, he slowly nodded, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips. "Indeed, your analysis makes a lot of sense. Wang Laowu is indeed a hidden danger and must be dealt with as soon as possible. But how is he doing now?"

The subordinate quickly said, "Young Master, according to the information from our previous agents, Wang Laowu should be close to the border. He has been very careful along the way, hiding here and there, just to avoid Fu Yanchen's pursuit."

"However, the situation on the border is more complicated. Although we have bribed some people, there are bound to be some unexpected situations."

The subordinate's tone carried a hint of worry, after all, the border area was a complex place, and any small mistake could lead to the failure of the entire plan.

The masked man stood up and paced back and forth in the room, his heavy footsteps seeming to pound on the hearts of his subordinates.

After thinking for a moment, he stopped. "Help him cross the border smoothly. Once he's there, he won't have a choice. It's a no-man's-land; it's not surprising if someone dies."

"clear."

“There are no laws or moral boundaries there. As long as we operate properly, Wang Laowu’s death will not arouse any suspicion. People will just think that he was beaten to death because he was involved in telecom fraud and didn’t have any results.”

The masked man's voice was icy. Yes, in his eyes, Wang Laowu's life was nothing more than a pawn that could be crushed at will.

The subordinate felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this, but he knew that the young master's decision was not to be questioned.

He lowered his head slightly and said respectfully, "Understood, young master, I'll take care of it immediately. I'll arrange for the most reliable person to carry out this task to ensure everything goes smoothly. However, just to be on the safe side, shouldn't we make some other preparations?"

The subordinate cautiously offered his suggestion, not wanting to cause any trouble for the young master due to his negligence.

The masked man glanced at his subordinate, a hint of approval in his eyes. "You've thought this through very well. Here's what we'll do: arrange for some more people to monitor Wang Laowu's every move near the border. Once he crosses the border, make your move immediately."

"At the same time, we need to have those we've bribed ready to provide backup and ensure our plan can be implemented smoothly. Also, we need to notify our forces in the no-man's-land so they can be prepared to deal with any unforeseen circumstances."

The masked man arranged everything methodically, as if everything was under his control.

The subordinate listened attentively, nodding occasionally to show his understanding. After the masked man finished speaking, he respectfully said again, "Young Master, rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter well. I will personally supervise every step to ensure that no mistakes occur."

After saying that, he turned and left the room.

The masked man watched his subordinate's departing figure, a murderous glint in his eyes.

Fu Yanchen, Nan Yifeng, Xu Xiaoxiao, I'm back. Are you ready?

Fu Group

The door to Fu Yanchen's office was suddenly pushed open, and Lin Nuo rushed in without even knocking.

"Sir, something has happened." Lin Nuo's voice trembled slightly.

Fu Yanchen's brows furrowed even more instantly. He looked up and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"

In his memory, Lin Nuo was always calm, composed, and reliable, and rarely lost his composure like this. Now that he saw it, he realized that this matter was definitely not simple.

Lin Nuo took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "Wang Laowu is dead. He's over there, in the North."

Fu Yanchen fell silent upon hearing the news.

He leaned back in his chair, his gaze becoming deep and complex, as if he were deep in thought.

The atmosphere in the office instantly became oppressive and heavy, as if an invisible boulder was pressing on everyone's hearts.

After a long silence, Fu Yanchen slowly spoke, "It seems we're on the right track. There must be someone behind Wang Laowu, and this person's identity is not simple. Wang Laowu has met this person before. Now that this person knows we are controlling and protecting Wang Laowu's parents, he's afraid Wang Laowu will come back and expose his identity, so he's killed them to silence them."

As Lin Nuo listened to Fu Yanchen's analysis, her resentment and worry grew stronger.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh, and said through gritted teeth, "Now, what do we do now? There are no clues. We spent so much time and effort tracking down Wang Laowu, and we finally got some leads, but now it's all gone."

"If this person isn't found, he's like a time bomb hiding next to my wife, and he might explode any day now."

Fu Yanchen stood up and paced back and forth in his office.

The footsteps were heavy and powerful, each step striking Lin Nuo's heart.

His eyes revealed a calmness and wisdom, as if he were searching for a glimmer of light in the darkness.

After thinking for a moment, he stopped and looked at Lin Nuo with a firm gaze, saying, "Don't rush, now we can only wait for him to come out on his own."

Lin Nuo looked at Fu Yanchen with a puzzled expression and asked, "Wait for him to come out on his own? Sir, how is that possible? Since that person dared to kill to silence a witness, he certainly wouldn't show himself easily. If we just wait like this, aren't we just sitting here waiting to die? Madam..."

Lin Nuo was worried about Xu Xiaoxiao's gaze.

“Lin Nuo, you have to understand that the fact that the mastermind is going to such lengths to hide his identity means that he has something to worry about. He’s afraid that we’ll find him and that his conspiracy will be exposed.”

"Now that Wang Laowu is dead, he thinks we have no leads and will let his guard down. He will probably still target Xiaoxiao. Actually, he should be targeting me, not Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao is a very good person and has no enemies."

"Now we deliberately act like we have no clue, so he thinks we have given up the investigation. This way he will gradually reveal his weaknesses, and then we will secretly lay a trap so that he will never return."

After hearing Fu Yanchen's explanation, Lin Nuo suddenly understood, and her worries lessened somewhat.

He nodded and said, "Sir, I understand. You're playing hard to get, hoping the mastermind will reveal themselves. But how can we make him believe we've given up?"

Fu Yanchen walked to the window, looked at the bustling city outside, and slowly said, "First, reduce the surveillance on Wang Laowu's parents, so that the mastermind behind it all will think that we are no longer paying attention to them."

"We need to create the illusion within the group and around my wife that we have let our guard down, so that he feels there is an opportunity to take advantage of us."

"Strengthen our covert investigative capabilities and closely monitor all suspicious persons and events. We can apprehend him immediately should he make any move."

Lin Nuo listened attentively to Fu Yanchen's plan, and couldn't help but admire Fu Yanchen's wisdom and strategy.

"Sir, rest assured, I will definitely follow your plan and find the mastermind behind it all."

After saying that, he turned and left the office.

Fu Yanchen watched Lin Nuo's departing figure, a hint of worry in his eyes.

He must completely eliminate the enemy lurking in the shadows, otherwise... (laughs)
