Jiang Feng felt even more heartbroken when he heard Chu Feifei's words and saw her tear-streaked face.
"Fei'er, I'm sorry, I came too late."
His face was full of bitterness as he continued to wrap Chu Feifei in her overcoat.
This time, Chu Feifei did not resist, letting Jiang Feng hold her snowy white legs and lift her up.
Yet, she cried even more uncontrollably, clinging tightly to Jiang Feng's neck, sobbing sorrowfully in his arms.
Not long after the two left.
A cleaner at the Bo Yue Hotel came up to clean.
Moreover, he had reserved the entire 23rd floor of the hotel, not allowing any other guests to come up.
Therefore, no trace was left in the room or elevator, and there were no witnesses, allowing the murderer to escape unscathed.
"Get me the phone number for the Dongfang Family, quickly!!"
Cold sweat poured down the manager's forehead as he barked orders at the security guards once again!
...
At the same time.
In the northeast of the Provincial City, a top luxury villa no less than the Purple Jade Villa in the southwest or the Yanchi Villa in the southeast, was brightly lit in the main building.
The Family Head's Wife, Qi Mengge, clad in pajamas, stormed into the living room in anger and disbelief!
She looked at the hundred-odd people hurriedly gathered inside and incredulously questioned the elderly man at the forefront, "Uncle Zhou, what did you say? My son Xiao Hui... is dead?!"
This news was like a bolt from the blue for Qi Mengge!
Her doting on her son Dongfang Hui exceeded that of any protective mother in the world!
And her son had never disappointed her, always excelling since childhood, even going abroad for a prestigious education.
Now Dongfang Hui was planning to return to China to make a name for himself in the province. How could he suddenly be dead?!
Qi Mengge couldn't believe this was true!
"Madam, it's true. The operations department called me, and I confirmed it several times. One of the two people dead at 'Zero Emotion' bar is the young master, the other is the young master's henchman, that Binhai guy Pan Sheng!"
Uncle Zhou said with deep pain.
His name was Zhou Zhenhai, like Hou Bo of the Huangfu Family and Heng Bo of the Yan Family, he was the Great Housekeeper of the Dongfang Family.
However, unlike the other two, he was not the confidant of Family Head Dongfang Yu, but the confidant of Family Head's Wife Qi Mengge.
Everyone knew that in the Provincial City, Dongfang Family's nominal head was Dongfang Yu, but he had at most a third of the say. The true power was in the hands of Family Head's Wife Qi Mengge!
Qi Mengge was a Princess Qianjin from the Qi Family, a fiery presence since childhood. Growing up, out of consideration for the marriage alliance between the two families, she was married to Dongfang Yu.
It was this marriage that gave Dongfang Yu the upper hand in the family core inheritance competition from his youth, allowing him to smoothly take over as Family Head in middle age.
Unfortunately, even today, he couldn't fully be in charge; Qi Mengge was the true dominator in this big family!
Qi Mengge always despised her husband for being ineffective, and their marriage has been perpetually strained.
While Dongfang Yu kept mistresses outside, Qi Mengge had her own lovers.
The two turned a blind eye to each other's affairs, showing affection only on necessary occasions.
Zhou Zhenhai, brought by Qi Mengge from the Qi Family, was therefore only close to her and led the entire Dongfang Family to follow her commands!
"Damn it, who is so bold as to dare kill my son!!" Qi Mengge asked, trembling in anger, her hands and feet icy cold.
"It's still unclear. The only lead we have is that last night on the Family Head's Dragon Boat at the Business Alliance Conference, the young master had a conflict with a young man. The young man beat up the young master and Pan Sheng in front of everyone."
"At the time, for some unknown reason, the Family Head didn't deal with that young man. Instead, he waited until this morning after disembarking to call the operations department to arrest the young man."
"And I've heard privately that the young man injured the young master severely back then, injuring his vital points, making him only able to sit in a wheelchair..."
Zhou Zhenhai added heavily.
All this, he found out through investigation after the fact, as Dongfang Yu didn't dare tell Qi Mengge about the incident from last night after disembarking.
Apparently, he was intrinsically afraid of this tigress.
He planned to tell Qi Mengge after Dawu and Xiaowu dealt with Jiang Feng, hoping to redeem himself.
Unfortunately, he now had no chance forever.
"Unbelievable, that useless Dongfang Yu can't even handle such a small matter? I've always said he's more trouble than he's worth, setting up a platform for his son to shine, and he screwed it up this badly?"
Qi Mengge gritted her teeth and said.
Sincerely, she considered herself a beautiful woman, well-maintained and looking no more than forty.
But now, her face was twisted, like an Evil Ghost, a Viper Lady!
"What's the background of the guy who beat Xiao Hui? Could his death have anything to do with him?"
"That is still uncertain. I've heard that he's just a low-level security guard from Binhai, so he's good at fighting. But when I inquired about his whereabouts from the operations department, they were tight-lipped and wouldn't reveal it, which seems very suspicious to me," Zhou Zhenhai continued.
"A low-level security guard from Binhai?"
Qi Mengge snarled viciously: "Dongfang Yu now really has grown to be something, unable to deal with even the lowest scum, having to rely on the operations department for punishment. Can this useless man get anything done at all?
"Madam, now is not the time to curse the Family Head. I tried to call him, but couldn't reach him. I'm not sure where he is or if he knows about the young master's death?"
By rights, it shouldn't be this way. Dongfang Yu, after all, is Dongfang Hui's biological father; with his son dead, as a father, how could he play at being unreachable? Zhou Zhenhai was puzzled.
"I think he has no face to answer calls, he knows I won't spare him. Let me call him!"
Qi Mengge said with a face full of hatred.
Then, she took out her phone and publicly called Dongfang Yu several times.
But without exception, all went unanswered.
Qi Mengge, in anger, threw her phone to the ground fiercely, her chest filled with anger, about to explode!
At this moment, Zhou Zhenhai's phone suddenly rang, showing an unfamiliar number. He immediately answered.
"I am Zhou Zhenhai, housekeeper of the Dongfang Family, who are you?"
"Hello, Housekeeper Zhou, I am Xue Hao, manager of Bo Yue Hotel. The Family Head Dongfang was murdered in our hotel not long ago, and I wish to inform Mrs. Qi to come as soon as possible..."
