Chapter 58: The Boss Behind The Scene

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

There were many illegal areas in the underground racing arena so they could not call for an ambulance openly. Hence, the underground racing arena was equipped with specialized vehicles to send the injured participants to the hospital.

If it was any other day, the ambulance would have arrived long ago after such a huge accident. She did not know why it was especially late today.

Luo Yikun and the others also didn’t know why the ambulance was late, but Yan Jinyu knew. Or rather, Yan Jinyu had a guess.

At a certain moment, Yan Jinyu, who was sitting in the car, raised her head and looked through the car window at the window of a building that was covered by curtains not far away. Her gaze was sharp, and her expression was cold.

Yan Jinyun, who happened to see her expression, couldn’t help but feel puzzled. “What’s wrong?” She looked out of the car window and saw nothing except the cliff beside the racetrack and the building in the distance.

Yan Jinyu retracted her gaze and smiled, “Nothing’s wrong.”

Yan Jinyun didn’t believe her, but she really couldn’t figure out what she was looking at. She stared at Yan Jinyu and sized her up for a while, but she still couldn’t see anything. She thought that perhaps Yan Jinyu suddenly thought of something and showed that expression.

She didn’t intend to ask in detail because her upbringing didn’t allow her to get to the bottom of other people’s matters. She also knew that even if she asked, Yan Jinyu might not answer.

Seeing that Yan Jinyun wasn’t paying attention anymore, Yan Jinyu took out her phone from her pocket and typed a message with one hand, “Little Rain, help me find out who the boss behind the biggest underground racing arena in North City is.”

The other party replied instantly, “Okay! I’ll give you the results later.”

Without any hesitation, Little Rain didn’t even ask why Yan Jinyu wanted to investigate the boss of an underground racing arena. Yan Jinyu also had no doubts that the other party would be able to find out about him.

Such unconditional trust was not something that could be gained overnight.

As for why Yan Jinyu would think of investigating the boss behind this underground racing arena, it was based on her instincts that she had nurtured from countless near-death experiences.

She did not think that such an incident would happen in such a huge underground racing arena. Furthermore, the one who was seriously injured was the eldest daughter of the Qiu Family in the capital… Although she did not know the status of the Qiu Family, Qiu Jian, the eldest daughter of the Qiu Family, was someone whom even Luo Yikun, the Second Young Master of the Luo Family, had to suck up to. The Qiu Family should not be too bad. Furthermore, this was Luo Yikun’s event. The person whom he had tried so hard to curry favor with was seriously injured. The ambulance should have arrived immediately.

However, the truth was that she and Yan Jinyun had finished the track, reached the finish line and waited at the finish line for so long before they arrived at the accident point. Since the ambulance hadn’t arrived after such a long time, there was only one possibility. Someone had done it on purpose.

With it being Luo Yikun’s event and given the Luo Family’s status in North City, very few people in North City dared to offend him. Even if someone did, they wouldn’t offend him over such a small matter. The gains wouldn’t make up for the losses.

In that case, Yan Jinyu believed that it should be the mysterious boss behind the scenes who dared to offend Luo Yikun, was confident that he or she wouldn’t be harmed and could easily control the underground racing arena’s rescue vehicles.

Feng Yuan was the reason why Yan Jinyu knew the mysterious boss was behind this.

Feng Yuan had previously mentioned that anyone who lost the competition in the underground racing arena had to hand over the corresponding prize to the winner.

At that time, Feng Yuan didn’t say that the underground racing arena wouldn’t care if the person who lost the competition had status.

That was to say, in Feng Yuan’s understanding, the boss behind the scenes here had no one that he could not offend.

Although Feng Yuan later said that if the person who lost the competition was unwilling to pay the other party’s spoils of war, this underground racing arena would also be responsible, Feng Yuan did not specially emphasize that she wanted to look for Qiu Jian to ask for the spoils of war. This meant that even Yan Jinyun, the heir of the Yan Family, was slightly afraid of the capital’s Qiu Family. In the eyes of the boss behind the underground racing arena, the Qiu Family still wasn’t intimidating enough.

All signs pointed to the mysterious owner of the underground racing arena as the one most likely to be involved in this matter.

Of course, Yan Jinyu wasn’t so sure just based on this alone.

Just now, based on her instincts as the number one killer, someone in the building was obviously looking in this direction.

She had discovered that shortly after the accident.

She could sense it because the person’s gaze had suddenly turned to her and had been staring at her since.

She did not think that an ordinary person could have such a gaze that could make her tensed up.

The building was so far away, but the man’s gaze still made her tense for a moment. It meant that the man’s gaze was indeed on her.

The man was using a telescope.

She knew that the person could see her, so she did not reveal it even if she sensed his presence.

She wanted to be the person hiding in the dark. She could not let the person hiding in the dark pay too much attention to her.

She still had to stay in North City for a long time. North City was also the base camp of the Yan Family and Yin Jiujin. For such a person to appear, she naturally had to investigate the background before she could be at ease.

***

At that moment, on a certain floor of the building that Yan Jinyu had noticed.

A man in a black shirt and black trousers was standing by the window with the curtains down. He was holding a small telescope in his hand. The curtains nearby were still swaying. They must have just been lowered.

The man was around 25 years old and had an extremely exquisite face. The aura he exuded should be cold and steady. However, his face was too pale, and coupled with the devilish smile on his lips, he looked more feminine and cunning than calm.

“Sir, should we send the ambulance over now?” A man in his thirties asked as he bowed and took the binoculars from the man.

He was the man’s assistant.

“Yes, we’re in North City after all. If something really happens, there will be a lot of trouble.” After saying that, he coughed softly. His pale face was obviously caused by his poor health all year round.

The assistant looked worried, “Sir, you…”

“It’s okay. It’s an old problem.”

As he spoke, the man walked to the sofa and sat down. He took a sip of the warm water on the coffee table and then leaned back lazily on the sofa. He played with the cup in his hand and smiled slightly, looking even more sinister, “I didn’t expect Yin Jiujin’s fiancée to be so different from the rumors. Yin Jiujin probably doesn’t know about it himself. This is interesting.”

“Sir, do you want me to check on this eldest daughter of the Yan Family again?” What he meant was that he had checked before.

“There’s no need to investigate again. Since you can’t find anything the first time, you might not be able to find anything different. Being able to discover his fiancée’s unusual side before Yin Jiujin can be considered an unexpected gain. I didn’t come to North City for nothing.”

“Are you planning to start with Miss Yan?” The assistant realized that he had said too much when he met the man’s faint smile. He quickly lowered his head, and a few drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

“I’m not that uncivilised to start with a woman. However, it’s true that I’m a little interested in the eldest daughter of the Yan Family.”

“It’s fine if it’s different from the rumors, but even the information we found doesn’t match the truth. It’s said that the results of Yin Jiujin’s investigation are about the same as what we found. Since even Yin Jiujin and I can’t find out her true identity, we naturally can’t underestimate her.”

“However, there’s no hurry. I’ve screwed Yin Jiujin up so badly this time. I only made a trip to North City because he was temporarily distracted. I have to rush back to South City as soon as possible. Otherwise, if Yin Jiujin were to dig a hole for me after settling this matter, it wouldn’t be worth it.”

“Sir, you’re right. Master Nine is not to be underestimated.” Even if he was his master’s opponent, he had to respectfully call him Master Nine.

“I’ve never dared to underestimate him. I simply hope that the eldest daughter of the Yan Family’s return to North City wouldn’t be adding onto Yin Jiujin’s power.”

“Sir, you might be thinking too much. Although there are some differences between Miss Yan and the information we found about her, it’s not to the extent of giving Master Nine additional power.”

The man twirled the glass of water in his hand and smiled, “That might not be the case.”

The assistant did not understand, but he did not dare to ask.

“Pass down my orders. Don’t tell anyone what happened here today.”

He knew that Sir wanted to hide the fact that Eldest Miss Yan did not match the rumors. “Yes… but Sir, this is North City. Most of the people who appear here today are descendants of North City’s influential families. I’m afraid we can’t hide it for long.”

“We’ll hide it as long as we can. I don’t think I can hide it from Yin Jiujin forever. The later he discovers the difference between his fiancée, the more beneficial it is to me. It will be even more interesting if I find out the background of his fiancée first.”

Right then, the phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID on the coffee table, the assistant carefully glanced at the man. After a long while, he exhaled lightly and walked over to pick up the phone “Sir, it’s the Eldest Young… It’s Miss Sisi.”

The man frowned and took the phone from him. He answered the call. “What’s the matter?” Although he coughed a few times after saying that, it was not difficult to hear the hint of impatience in his voice.
