The reporter who turned off the live-stream handed the microphone to the other staff members and turned around to send the situation at the event location to Shan Yue. Then, she continued to go deeper into the provincial department to check on the internal situation.
At this moment, Shan Yue, who was still in the Federation venue, received the news and a disdainful smile appeared on her lips. She did not even look at the bodyguard’s clamor. However, these trivialities would delay their happy times. Although good times were short, they would leave especially deep memories. After their loving time ended, the two of them returned to normal. They both appeared calm and rational.
“Shan Yue, what’s wrong? Looking at your expression, did something happen again?” Zhou Xuan’s eyes revealed a trace of doubt. “Haven’t we already resolved everything here? All the truth has been made public. What else can make you look like this?”
“Actually, it’s nothing serious. It’s just that tomorrow’s news headlines will probably be occupied by something else. Our press conference can only come second.”
These words made the usually calm Zhou Xuan’s eyes flash with surprise.
Today’s matter involved so many things that even the deputy governor and a series of high-ranking people were related. What could be more qualified to occupy the top of the news list than their press conference?
“How is that possible? Didn’t the press conference just end? Did something happen in such a short time?”
Shan Yue did not answer this question immediately. Instead, she walked to the television in the venue and changed the channel to a live-stream.
The live-stream on the television screen showed the scene of the provincial explosion. Although the firefighters had already arrived, the fire suppression work did not go as smoothly as expected because the floor was too high.
Secondly, they were not sure if there were any other dangerous items in the room, so they put aside the finishing work. It was also because of this that the scene was presented to Zhou Xuan.
“What’s going on? Isn’t this the provincial building? How did it become like this?” Zhou Xuan opened his eyes slightly and looked at the scene on the television with an incredulous expression. “It’s indeed not a small matter to have an explosion here…”
Before he could finish, his thoughts cleared. He quickly connected the current situation to today’s press conference.
“That’s right. This room where the explosion happened is Lang Nan’s office. I’ve long guessed that something like today would happen. He will definitely think of a way to escape from the Federation’s Central City with his family.” Shan Yue’s brows revealed obvious confidence. “But before he escapes, he definitely has to go back and delete all the evidence of his crimes. Otherwise, once what 1 said is confirmed, he will still have a wanted poster no matter where he escapes.”
“So you’ve already planted a bomb in his room, waiting for Lang Nan to go back and delete the evidence?” Zhou Xuan asked.
“Yes, I’ve already said that after today, only one of us can continue to live in this world. When he asked Ah Yong to kill me with a gun, I didn’t have such a strong killing intent.”
Shan Yue’s eyes became serious. “But there’s only one thing I can’t tolerate. Lang Nan shouldn’t have used Shan Chen to threaten me. This has already crossed my bottom line.”
“That’s good too. At least we won’t have to be constantly on guard against Lang Nan’s old tricks again. He won’t have to take someone as a hostage to threaten us.”
Zhou Xuan did not have much of a reaction to this, but it still worried him a little. “But the others in the provincial department…”
“Don’t worry. Of course 1 know what you’re worried about. Since 1 dared to let Chang Ling do this, 1 must have been fully prepared in advance.”
Shan Yue replied calmly, “Long before the bomb was installed, I got Chang Ling to make an announcement in the name of Lang Nan. The provincial department is going to carry out an equipment inspection. No one is allowed to stay inside. Therefore, there will definitely not be other casualties. Moreover, even if Lang Nan enters the provincial department, no one will be suspicious..”
