Chapter 122 Failure Again

Liu Haoyu was eventually taken away by the police, with resentment and resentment on his face, but I knew it was all over. I could finally sleep peacefully without having to worry about him taking revenge on me someday.

I turned to look at Zhong Yuxuan. He stood in the sunset, with a clear outline, like a solid mountain, giving me an endless sense of security. I can finally be with him...

"What are you thinking about?" Zhong Yuxuan's gentle voice interrupted my thoughts.

"Nothing, I just feel that everything is finally over." I tried to force a smile to suppress the uneasiness in my heart.

In the next few days, we were dealing with the mess left by Liu Haoyu. Fortunately, everything went smoothly. I thought I could breathe a sigh of relief, but I didn't expect that a bigger storm was brewing.

That day, I was sorting out the materials I brought back from Liu Haoyu's basement in my study, and an unsigned envelope fell to the ground. I picked it up and opened it out of curiosity.

There were only a few lines of words on the letter paper, but they were like a bolt from the blue, making me dizzy:

"Li Luoxue, who do you think you are? You are just a chess piece, a chess piece carefully designed to replace the real eldest lady of the Li family..."

My hands were shaking, and I could barely hold the thin piece of paper. My mind was blank and buzzing. Replacement? Chess piece? Am I not my parents' biological child? Have I been living an elaborate lie?

I fell to the ground helplessly, the letter slipped from my hands and lay on the ground like a dead leaf. I felt that my world was collapsing and everything became illusory.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Yuxuan pushed the door open and saw me in a daze. He hurried to my side and asked, "What happened?"

I handed him the letter with trembling hands, and couldn't hold back my tears any longer.

After reading the letter, Zhong Yuxuan's face became serious. He held me in his arms, patted my back gently, and tried to comfort me: "Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything."

However, his words made me even more scared. He didn't know the truth either, and he didn't know how to face this sudden change.

We fell into silence. The study was filled with an atmosphere of fear and anxiety that made me feel suffocated.

I didn't know what was going to happen next, nor did I know who I was or where I came from. I only knew that my life had completely changed because of this letter.

The study was dead silent, with only the occasional crackling of the fire in the fireplace, as if mocking my helplessness and hesitation at the moment. Zhong Yuxuan held my hand tightly, his palm was warm and dry, but it couldn't dispel the chill in my heart.

"Who sent this letter? Why do you say you are a 'chess piece'?" Zhong Shuhao broke the silence, his brows furrowed, his tone full of worry.

"I don't know. There is no signature or mailing address on it." I shook my head and leaned weakly on the sofa. The contents of the letter kept replaying in my mind, and every word pierced my heart like a needle.

"Could it be that Liu Haoyu's remnants are deliberately seeking revenge to disturb your mind?" Qin Xue guessed anxiously, "He is ruthless and can do anything."

I shook my head and denied her guess: "Impossible, he has already gone in, and the tone and style of this letter are different from his." My intuition told me that behind this letter, there is a bigger secret hidden, a secret related to my life experience.

"Don't scare yourself first," Zhong Yuxuan stroked my hair gently, his tone gentle but with a barely perceptible tremor, "We will find out everything, we will."

In the next few days, we began to investigate the source of this anonymous letter. Lin Xiaofeng used technical means to track the mailing address of the letter, but found that it was a false address.

"Things are getting more and more complicated." Lin Xiaofeng put down the tablet in his hand, frowned, and said in a serious tone, "I checked the address, it points to a mysterious organization. This organization is very secretive and almost no information can be found. But one thing is certain, they are inextricably linked to Liu Haoyu's criminal network."

"You mean to say that my life experience might be related to this organization?" My heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came over me.

"We can't be sure yet," Zhong Yuxuan held my hand, giving me strength, "but we will find out."

I looked into their eyes, my heart filled with gratitude and uneasiness. I knew that I couldn't just sit there and wait for death, I had to find out my own life experience and the truth behind this letter.

"I'm going to investigate this organization myself," I said firmly.

"No, this is too dangerous!" Zhong Yuxuan refused without even thinking about it. His brows were almost twisted into a "川" shape. "We can't let you take risks."

"But..." I wanted to refute, but Qin Xue held my hand.

"Luo Xue, Yu Xuan is right, this matter is too dangerous," Qin Xue looked at me worriedly, "We can't let you take the risk."

I know they are all doing this for my own good, but I can't just sit there and wait for death. This letter is like a time bomb, I don't know when it will explode, and I have to defuse it before it explodes.

"I know you're worried about me, but I can't just do nothing," I took a deep breath and said firmly, "This is my life experience, and I have to find out the truth."

Looking at my determined eyes, Zhong Yuxuan finally compromised: "I'll go with you."

"No!" This time it was my turn to refuse. "You can't go. You still have a company to manage and many things to deal with."

"Nothing is more important than you." Zhong Yuxuan's eyes were unquestionable.

I knew I couldn't convince him, so I finally had to agree to let him go with me.

We began to make a plan, and Lin Xiaofeng used technical means to find a base of this organization. It was an abandoned factory in the suburbs, which looked eerie and scary.

In order not to alert the enemy, we decided to act at night. When night fell, Zhong Yuxuan and I disguised ourselves and sneaked into the factory. The factory was dark, with only the faint moonlight shining through the broken windows, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

We moved forward cautiously, the air was filled with a rotten smell, making people sick. Suddenly, a faint sound of footsteps came from the front, and we immediately hid behind a pile of abandoned machines.

In the dim light, I saw several men in black walking towards me. They were holding weapons in their hands and looked well-trained.

"The target hasn't appeared yet?" one of them asked in a low voice.

"No," the other man answered, "but I have sent someone to check, and I believe there will be news soon."

Target? Are they talking about me? My heart sank suddenly, and a sense of foreboding came over me.

The man in black didn't notice us and left quickly. I walked out from behind the machine, feeling confused. The power of this organization was far beyond my imagination. They seemed to have been secretly monitoring me and controlling my life.

Who am I? What secrets does my life story hide?

Zhong Yuxuan held my hand tightly, and the warmth of his palm seemed to convey strength to me: "Don't be afraid, I will always be with you." I looked at him gratefully. His eyes were firm and gentle, like a bright light in the dark night, illuminating the fear and uneasiness in my heart.

After returning to the Zhong family, we immediately called Zhong Shuhao, Qin Xue and Lin Xiaofeng and told them about our findings in the abandoned factory.

"It seems that things are more complicated than we thought." Zhong Shuhao frowned. Although he was always calm, he looked a little anxious at this moment.

"What is the origin of this organization? Why are they monitoring Luo Xue?" Qin Xue paced back and forth anxiously, her worry evident in her words.

"We don't know yet." Lin Xiaofeng's fingers were tapping quickly on the keyboard. "I have asked the technical department to step up the investigation. I believe there will be results soon."

We have formulated a series of plans to try to lure out the snake and find the mastermind. However, every action seems to be stuck in a quagmire and hits a wall everywhere. The mysterious organization is like a fog, and we can never reach its core.

Just when we were at our wits' end, Lin Xiaofeng finally made some progress. He retrieved a large amount of surveillance footage and finally found a suspicious person.

"This person often appears next to Luo Xue, and each time he appears is very clever. I suspect he is the person sent by the organization to monitor Luo Xue." Lin Xiaofeng pointed at the photo on the screen. The photo showed a thin man wearing a baseball cap with a sinister look in his eyes.

"I seem to have seen him somewhere..." I stared at the photo, trying hard to recall, but I still couldn't remember.

"This man is called Li Qiang, and he is the security captain of the Zhong Group." Zhong Shuhao suddenly spoke with a hint of disbelief in his tone, "How could he..."

"What? Security captain?!" We all looked at Zhong Shuhao in surprise. If Li Qiang was a member of the organization, then that meant...

My heart sank suddenly, and a terrible thought came to my mind. Could it be that the real enemy has been hiding among us all along?
