Free Web NovelChapter 2005: Chapter 1978: Night as Cool as Water
"Lord Buddha, your kindness is enough."
Listening to Jiang Tianbao’s indisputable words, Lu Tianxing slowly spoke, "Lord Buddha, actually there’s something I need your help with. I know you have deep connections in Qin Island and mingling with all sorts of people. I hope you can keep an eye on Qin Island for me, see if there’s anyone suspicious. Of course, Lord Buddha, you also need to be careful. If anyone finds out you’re investigating this, I fear they might try to harm you."
"Mr. Lu, rest assured, I’ll be careful."
Jiang Tianbao said in a deep voice, "Besides, as long as I carry bodyguards with me and don’t go to any remote places, these people shouldn’t have the guts to deal with me, right!"
"Lord Buddha, Wu Shaochang thought the same. He believed no one dared to kill him, but what was the result! Furthermore, if someone truly wants to kill you, it would only take an instant, requiring no time at all. So, you must be very cautious. Once you encounter a crisis, retreat immediately or call me."
"Mr. Lu, I know what to do."
Jiang Tianbao nodded heavily, a slight smile appearing on his face comparable to Maitreya Buddha. He knew his move was successful. As long as he stays alive, Lu Tianxing stays alive, the benefits he would reap in the future would be unimaginable. fгeewebnovёl.com
After hanging up with Jiang Tianbao, a gleam flickered in Lu Tianxing’s eyes. How could he not understand what Jiang Tianbao meant by his words today—just wanting to bet with him like Qiu Tianrui did.
Lu Tianxing didn’t care about this. To him, having one more friend means one more path. Jiang Tianbao offered his help, why refuse? Although at the end of the day it’s about interests, so what! As long as he stays alive, Jiang Tianbao can’t stir up any trouble. What he can give to Jiang Tianbao, he can also take back.

Time is like sand slipping through fingers, always silently and unnoticed, passing by.
In the blink of an eye, it’s already sunset, and the streetlights and neon lights have lit up. Countless pedestrians walk the streets, enjoying the rare evening tranquility.
Contrast to ordinary people, everyone with power and influence on Qin Island feels a chilling sensation creeping over their hearts, like the severe winter, it’s making them feel chills all over, unable to calm down, casting a shadow over everyone’s heart, suffocating them.
In just one day, so many things happened in Qin Island. Wei Xu, Wu Shaochang, and Qiu Tianrui were all famous young masters, yet danger befell them all in just one day—two dead, one injured, and the only one injured is still lying in the hospital, uncertain of life or death. How could this not be terrifying? Who knows who the next target of the mastermind is, and who knows if Lu Tianxing would blame them for this.
Meanwhile, in Qin Island Hospital, after doctors examined Qiu Tianrui again and announced he had passed the crisis, all he needed was to wake up to be out of danger, everyone breathed a heavy sigh of relief. It was the best news heard today.
And just as the doctor announced that Qiu Tianrui was out of the danger period, and once he wakes up, there’d be no more risk to his life, Qiu Zhengfeng let Qiu Yingrong take Lingling home. After all, Lingling is just a child, staying in the hospital isn’t good, plus he had already made plans with Lu Tianxing to lure out the snake. With Qiu Yingrong staying in the hospital, how would the other party act? Moreover, relying on Lu Tianxing’s fondness for Lingling, even if Qiu Yingrong and Lingling were merely bait this time, they absolutely wouldn’t get hurt, which Qiu Zhengfeng totally trusted.
Though his interactions with Lu Tianxing weren’t long, he knew Lu Tianxing was unquestionably a person who values loyalty and gratitude, paying back even small favors with great returns.
To Qiu Zhengfeng’s words, Qiu Yingrong didn’t insist on anything. She was staying in the hospital because she worried about Qiu Tianrui’s safety, and now that Qiu Tianrui had passed the most difficult hurdle, she needn’t stay here anymore.
However, before leaving, Qiu Yingrong told Qiu Zhengfeng to notify her immediately when Qiu Tianrui awakes. To this, Qiu Zhengfeng nodded without hesitation.
Upon seeing Qiu Zhengfeng’s nod, Qiu Yingrong said no more. She took Lingling and left the hospital under the escort of the Qiu Family bodyguards.
For a moment, the entire ward only had Qiu Zhengfeng and Qiu Tianrui lying on the bed left.
Qiu Zhengfeng sat beside Qiu Tianrui, staring dazedly at the pale-faced Qiu Tianrui in a trance.
Compared to before, Qiu Zhengfeng’s mood at this moment felt much lighter. After all, Qiu Tianrui almost had one foot in Ghost Gate, always at risk of death, but now, Qiu Tianrui walked back from Ghost Gate, which was exciting.
The time flew by rapidly.
With a blink, the entire Qin Island was completely enveloped by nighttime, lights lit up, and the whole Qin Island was bathed in multicolored lights, making the city vibrant and captivating.
Just then, Qiu Yingrong returned safely to the Qiu Family under the bodyguards’ company.
This time, Qiu Yingrong did not stay in her purchased villa but stayed at the Qiu Family. After all, compared to the villa outside, the main residence of the Qiu Family is the safest, and if Qiu Yingrong were to return to the purchased villa, there’s no guarantee someone wouldn’t suspect some conspiracy, some plot.
Currently, Qiu Yingrong sat on the sofa in the living room, accompanying Lingling to watch cartoons. Yet, from her slightly blank eyes, it was clear her mind was not on the TV but elsewhere.
Qiu Yingrong was not thinking of anything other than the argument between Lu Tianxing and her grandfather this afternoon. She couldn’t figure out why her grandfather clashed with Lu Tianxing. Although there were many rumors outside now, anyone with common sense could tell they were mere fabrications against Lu Tianxing.
If Qiu Tianrui’s death was related to Lu Tianxing, he wouldn’t have needed to save Qiu Tianrui, just wait for him to die and go over; this way there wouldn’t be so many incidents. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Such a simple reason was apparent even to her, surely her grandfather saw that too, how could he suddenly argue with Lu Tianxing.
Was it because of Qiu Tianrui’s uncertain survival, her grandfather, in anger, said such words?
Or were her grandfather and Lu Tianxing plotting something, hence the loud argument?
