Lin Yin smiled as she watched Shen Hui leave. Then, she shouted, “Go back!” With that, Lin Yin turned around and left with the bodyguards beside her.
The words “go back” were like a straw that had been stuck in Shen Hui’s heart that was suddenly pulled away. Shen Hui instantly panicked.
She quickly turned around and saw Lin Yin and the others turning around and leaving quickly.
Shen Hui was conflicted for a while before she finally said loudly, “Wait.” Hearing the voice, Lin Yin’s lips curled up slightly.
Shen Hui brought Lin Yin home and said, “Can you guarantee my safety if I tell you?”
Shen Hui knew very well that it was impossible for Zhou Wei to say anything, but he was still killed in the end. This meant that even if she did not say anything, she might end up like Zhou Wei.
Moreover, Zhou Wei was killed in prison.
If that person had spies in such a sealed place, it meant that the country was actually not safe. This was also why she wanted to seek refuge overseas.
However, Lin Yin was right just now. It was no longer safe in the country. Then if she, a person from here, wandered overseas and did not have a local citizenship, it was actually even more unsafe.
In that case, why didn’t she find someone capable to ensure her safety here?
Lin Yin only said with a smile in her eyes, “Miss Shen, I can only do my best to protect you. It’s just that you know your own situation. Whether you say it or not, you’ll die on someone else’s chopping board. It’s just that with me around, your chances of survival are higher. So it’s up to you.”
Lin Yin didn’t know the power of the person who killed Zhou Wei, so she didn’t dare to promise her so easily. After all, she had never been quick with her words when she wasn’t confident.
Shen Hui struggled a little and cursed Lin Yin for being a sly old fox. She wasn’t even willing to give her a promise.
However, Lin Yin was indeed right. With Lin Yin around, her chances of survival were just higher.
In the end, Shen Hui gritted her teeth and asked, “What do you want to know?”
“Tell me about you, Zhou Wei, and the person behind Zhou Wei,” Lin Yin said with her legs crossed, as if she was prepared to hear a story.
Shen Hui exhaled softly and said, “Zhou Wei and I met 10 years ago. I was his lover for 10 years. Don’t think that he looks like an unemployed person, but he has a godfather who helps him occasionally. Therefore, he can afford normal expenses.”
Lin Yin frowned slightly and asked, “But we didn’t find any income in his bank account.”
Shen Hui smiled and said, “His account naturally won’t have any income because the money is transferred into a virtual account. Sometimes, there’s also cash. His godfather will personally give it to him.”
Lin Yin frowned even more. He gives it to him personally?
She asked suspiciously, “Who’s Zhou Wei’s godfather?”
“The owner of Charming Nightclub, Hu Ba. Zhou Wei told me all of this in private. I’ve heard of Hu Ba. He’s very ferocious. That’s why Zhou Wei has never introduced me in public. Every time he comes to look for me, he’s always sneaky and doesn’t let anyone find out. He said that those people are outlaws and it’s better if I don’t know them. He also told me to hide,” Shen Hui said.
Lin Yin nodded. No wonder they hadn’t found out about Shen Hui before. So that was how it was.
Shen Hui took a sip of tea and continued, “At first, I thought that Hu Ba had been secretly interacting with Zhou Wei and even paid him because he wanted to acknowledge Zhou Wei as his son to retire. Later on, I found out that there was someone above Hu Ba. That person was called Zhou Li. He was Zhou Wei’s godfather, and Hu Ba was the person who worked for Zhou Li.”
At this point, Shen Hui paused and looked at Lin Yin, her eyes filled with worry. “Zhou Wei said that Hu Ba was sent by Zhou Li to help him, but I’ve secretly observed Hu Ba. I think he’s more like the person supervising Zhou Wei. Therefore, when you said that Zhou Wei didn’t commit suicide and he killed him, I thought about it. Could it be that Hu Ba killed Zhou Wei under Zhou Li’s orders?”
“Do you know much about Zhou Li?” Lin Yin asked.
Shen Hui shook her head and said, “Zhou Wei doesn’t talk much about Zhou Li. He’s basically saying that Zhou Li is his second parent and treats him well. He even helped him take revenge. Moreover, I’ve never seen Zhou Li..”
