She would definitely not say this to anyone else, especially on such an important occasion where allies were exchanging information. Exposing her own shortcomings and lack of alternatives would only dampen morale and not do them any good.

When Su Ming heard the good news, his serious expression eased a little. He turned to look at Zhou Wei.

Zhou Wei heard his idiotic father’s voice again, and could not help but feel his head aching. He shook his head slightly, trying to shake the voice away. After restraining himself, he said, “What the Zhou family knows has more or less been revealed.”

Zhou Wei repeated what he had said to Chu Ning over the phone. Su Ming also held his forehead as he felt a slight headache coming on.

Chu Ning saw his disheartening expression and could not help but feel nervous. Could it be that the situation was not optimistic?

Under everyone’s nervous gazes, Su Ming said, “I didn’t want to alert the enemy, so I first spoke to Wu Ling in the name of discussing collaboration, but Wu Ling only said that they had a lot of people on the ship.”

Su Ming looked as if he was angered by Wu Ling’s stubbornness. “I haven’t released Wu Ling; he’s currently still staying in that room.”

Chu Ning didn’t say anything after hearing this. Her brain was working quickly. Since Zhou Yi wanted Wu Ling to help them, how could he help them? What could Wu Ling help them with?

She simulated several possibilities in her mind, but she was still not sure. She eventually raised this question.

When Su Ming heard this, he quickly thought of something, “When I called Wu Ling over in the afternoon, he looked very pleased with himself. I guess he was being used to lure me into a trap.”

Chu Ning nodded. “That means that Wu Ling isn’t irreplaceable in their plan. As long as we grab Wu Ling’s lifeline, we can make him change his mind.

However, Wu Ling probably doesn’t have much information.”

Yan Shen listened quietly by the side, slowly drinking the water in his cup. His gaze fell on Chu Ning, gentle and focused.

Zhou Wei frowned — he had a bad feeling. Suddenly, he asked, “Are the people guarding Wu Ling your own people whom you trust 100%?”

Su Ming was momentarily stunned. He quickly confirmed it and nodded with certainty, recalling the bodyguards staying by Wu Ling’s side.

Zhou Wei’s frown deepened. “Did you take Wu Ling’s phone away?

Su Ming’s expression instantly turned blank. Zhou Wei immediately realized that the situation was not good. After all, Zhou Hao, that outlaw, often used methods like kidnapping. Zhou Wei would have learned how to do so merely by watching.

Chu Ning also understood the seriousness of the matter — if Wu Ling was allowed to send out the news through text messages, the Lu family would take action ahead of time. However, the four of them were gathered together now. Wasn’t this like a live target?

Su Ming’s blank expression finally disappeared. With a thud, he stood up. “You guys don’t have to go; I’ll go and take a look. If the Lu family really finds out about this beforehand, then everyone must protect yourselves.”

Chu Ning and the other two nodded solemnly and waited in the room.

Little did they know that when the four of them gathered together, Chu Zhe and Su Kun were also watching their performance from the top floor.

Su Ming only left someone to watch over him, but when he did not take Wu Ling’s phone away, Su Kun’s face turned as black as thunder.

He folded his arms and sighed. “How can I be at ease with this?” he asked Chu Zhe.

Chu Zhe was not in a position to go along with Su Kun. He could only comfort him. “Young Master Su is still young. There’s no need to rush.”

Su Kun’s eyes widened. “Still young? He’s not that different from you. He’s only a few years older than that little girl Chu Ning. He’s not even half as reliable as the two of you.”

Chu Zhe smiled. “Isn’t there still Mr. Su backing him up? Young Master Su is also a young and rare talent. There’s no hurry.”

Su Kun shook his head, turned on his phone, and sent a message to his secretary, asking him to take Wu Ling’s phone away.

Chu Zhe looked at Su Kun’s actions and knew that he had everything planned out. He did not take the Lu family seriously at all and only wanted to give his son a chance to gain experience..
