Chapter 434: The Person Behind It

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After Qin Lu left, he immediately put on a pitiful expression and said to Nan Yan,

“Alice, I’ve given Mr. Qin my word. You won’t make things difficult for me, will you?”

Nan Yan looked at him expressionlessly and asked, “Can you really keep an eye on me?”

Marcus considered for a moment and shook his head, “It seems like I can’t.

All along, it had been Nan Yan who had authority over him, and he never had the chance to supervise her. But now, with Mr. Qin as his support, he felt more confident.

Seeing Marcus’s changing expressions, Nan Yan guessed what he was thinking. She smiled silently, rubbed her temples, and said, “Just come and get me when it’s time for meals.’

Leaving this remark behind, she returned to the laboratory.

In Eireng.

Jiang Sen knelt in front of Qin Lu and called out respectfully, “Master.”

Qin Lu waved his hand, signaling him to stand up, and asked, “How is the task I assigned to you going?”

Jiang Sen stood up and replied, “It has been completed, and I’m waiting for your orders, Master.”

Qin Lu said indifferently, “Within three days, orchestrate a political coup in Eireng, force the old king to step down, and support our people to take his place.”

“Yes, Young Master!”

After Jiang Sen acknowledged, he hesitated for a moment and then asked, “What about Prince Caesar? How should we deal with him?”

“Take me to see him.”

When Prince Caesar had conspired with Qin Lu’s enemy to set a trap, it had nearly cost Qin Lu his life. Qin Lu was known for his ruthless treatment of traitors and those who plotted against him.

Prince Caesar had been living in constant fear, knowing that Qin Lu had survived and left Eireng alive. He also understood that if Qin Lu ever returned, he would face severe retribution.

However, as time passed, Prince Caesar had not faced any retaliation from the Junlin Group, leaving him puzzled.

Then, news came from the China that the Qin family members were causing turmoil and attempting to seize power. Qin Lu was preoccupied with internal matters and had no time for anvthing else, as he needed to stabilize the situation within the country.

This led him to think that perhaps Qin Lu wasn’t as fearsome as rumored. But just as he started to relax, thinking that he wouldn’t face Qin Lu’s retaliation, Jiang Sen arrived.

Jiang Sen promptly imprisoned him, confining him to a pitch-black underground chamber, subjecting him to countless torments, until he was barely clinging to life.

Caesar, like a pile of rotten mud, curled up in a corner, his hands and feet twisted in an unnatural manner. His eyes were clouded, his face covered in filth, his body emaciated, bearing no resemblance to his former self.

As he heard movement at the door, he struggled to lift his head, a hint of emotion appearing in his cloudy eyes. When he saw Qin Lu walk into the room, he froze for a moment before suddenly screaming uncontrollably.

His entire body trembled, and he was consumed by an overwhelming sense of fear and unease.

“Ah, ahh, ahh, ahh…” He screamed as if he had seen a ghost, his fear of Qin Lu deeply ingrained in his bones.

“Shut up!” Jiang Sen approached and kicked him hard. Caesar groaned in pain, but he managed to suppress his screams.

“Master, he’s already crippled now. Why not just kill him?” Jiang Sen’s words raised Caesar’s fear to another level.

“No… don’t… don’t kill me…” He didn’t want to die!

“Who is the person working with you, the one who wants me dead?” Qin Lu had come to see him for the person behind this plot.

That person was very mysterious, and despite sending people to investigate for so long, the information they had gathered was not focused.

Until now, he only knew a code name—JD.

Caesar, suppressing his fear, tried to negotiate, “I’ll tell you, just let me go.”

“I don’t know him well, but a man named Qin Zhixiu suddenly contacted me one day to conspire on this plan. I really don’t know much about him. I heard he used to be related to your family though…” Caesar confessed readily, still with a trembling and fearful voice.

‘ Qin Zhixiu?” Qin Lu muttered to himself.

“Caesar, you better pray hard that it’s the truth. If not, I’ll be back to torment you to death soon. Jiang Sen, continue locking him up and monitoring him,” Qin Lu instructed Jiang Sen after delivering the threat.

After some contemplation, Qin Lu concluded that it would be wise to gather more information about Qin Zhixiu from Old Madam Qin.

He immediately returned to the Qin residence, and the servants informed Old Madam Qin that Young Master Qin had returned.

Old Madam Qin thought that Nan Yan was back with Qin Lu and hurriedly headed out with excitement and smiles to find them.

However, her expression suddenly changed from excitement to

disappointment when she realized that it was only Qin Lu.

Qin Lu couldn’t help but feel somewhat speechless at his grandmother’s sudden change of demeanor..
