Chapter 965: The Scapegoat

After they were certain that Nian Xiaomu was fine, they returned to the VIP ward.

They shut the door and the assistant walked over to Yu Yuehan and continued to report.

“The 14 young hooligans are famous, hired thugs in the area. They are usually paid by the rich and they, in turn, would help them to run shameful errands that could not be disclosed to the public. The police have been on the watch for them for a very long time, but they could not do anything to them because they did not have concrete evidence of their crimes. Now that all the hooligans have been eliminated in one stroke, their backgrounds were revealed as well. In addition, the main culprits who were not involved in this matter were caught too!”

The assistant passed a document to Yu Yuehan.

“A man named Brother Wu is the head of the pack. According to his statement, they had received an order at the last minute. The other party was extremely generous and made himself clear that he only wanted Miss Nian’s life, and the rest of the people were not of importance. Young Master Han, you were attacked because Brother Wu was not aware that this matter would implicate you and it was also because the men who were sent for the job did not recognize you.”

People from the black society or underworld usually had a list of who they could offend, and who they could not offend otherwise, they would have an unknown death if they offended the wrong person.

It was very obvious that the bunch of hooligans today had suffered that ending.

They had originally wanted Nian Xiaomu’s life, but in the end, they had been dealt with by Yu Yuehan.

They had suffered the consequences of these evil deeds!

Yu Yuehan’s eyes darkened when he heard that the other party had wanted Nian Xiaomu’s life.

A chilly ray of light flashed past his eyes.

He had had a bad feeling when he first saw those people, but he had never expected it to be true.

They were the same bunch of people that had been bribed to create some “accidents” for Nian Xiaomu when they both had arrived at City N for the first time.

Who exactly is the person responsible?

Multiple times now he had been so persistent in destroying Nian Xiaomu!

“Have you managed to find out who the mastermind is?” Yu Yuehan asked in a chilly tone.

Nian Xiaomu’s body subconsciously stiffened when she heard his words.

Nervously, she swallowed hard and looked at the assistant.

She, too, had yearned to know who she had offended since the other party and was so persistent in dealing with her.

The assistant replied, “The person had used the Tao Family’s name to hire the hitmen.”

Nian Xiaomu asked, “Tao Family? Tao Yunyun?”

She was slightly confused and raised her head. Quickly, she dismissed this possibility.

“It’s true that Tao Yunyun and I have argued before, and I would believe that she might have harbored hatred in her heart and want to send someone to give me a good lecture. However, the Tao Family would definitely not be pleased if she had wanted my life due to a minor matter. Furthermore, it doesn’t make sense as I didn’t even know Tao Yunyun when I came to City N. In that case, how do you explain the previous incident?”

Nian Xiaomu’s speculations were approved by Zheng Yan.

“I don’t think it’s right either. If Tao Yunyun was really the mastermind, I should be the person whom she hated the most and she should have hired the hitmen to kill me. Even if she resented Xiao Mumu because she had helped me to get her back, she would not have solely wanted Xiao Mumu’s life and instead let me off!”

The hospital ward sank into silence after Zheng Yan finished speaking.

They seemed to have sunk into a vicious circle.

A person with great power and influence was manipulating all of them.

Every time they thought that they were nearing the truth, they would find out that it was merely a cover-up trick of the other party.

Everything seemed to have gone back to square one again.

Yu Yuehan, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly said, “Go and find out if the account that was used to pay the hooligans is related to the Mo Family in any way.”

The moment he finished speaking, the people in the hospital ward turned around uniformly to look at him!

Nian Xiaomu was the first to react.

“Yes! The person who had paid Guizi the other time had done so by making use of the Zheng Family’s name. Perhaps Tao Yunyun might be the scapegoat this time round too!”
