Just yesterday, Wang Wu told me Long Capital was sending a new elder. Now they're holding it in Tianhai?
Lin Zhongtian responded, "Yes!"
"Anything else?"
Lin Zhongtian put on a long face. "That's really all I know. If you press me further, I'll have to start making things up."
Indeed, Lin Zhongtian was unclear on Wong Ting's arrangements. Wong Ting had long since abandoned him after he sided with Xu Ke.
Wong Ting knew there had to be something fishy about Lin Zhongtian's sudden one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in attitude. Perhaps Xu Ke had kidnapped his grandson or even poisoned him. But he didn't care, nor did he want to waste time helping Lin Zhongtian out of trouble. An elder was just being coerced, that was all. He could just find another one to come over, and they would serve the same purpose.
Xu Ke didn't press him further either, saying with a smile, "Alright, then I'll have to ask Elder Lin to keep an ear out for me."
"Yes..."
