Chapter 1193: Chapter 1197: Who Planned Such a Grand Conspiracy? Chapter 1193: Chapter 1197: Who Planned Such a Grand Conspiracy? But it’s no wonder…

Xiao Zhan had gone abroad to become a mercenary very early on.

And Phoenix and Qin Zui were girls, naturally not close to him.

Of all his siblings, from childhood to adulthood, the closest to him was Li Zhiqian.

Even when Ah Shui embarked on the path of a racecar driver, it was Li Zhiqian who had led him into it.

The birthday gifts Li Zhiqian gave to Ah Shui were always grand, a brand-new limited edition sports car each year.

Now thinking back on it, these might all have been part of Li Zhiqian’s calculated planning.

Merely to gain control of the core power of the Culture Hall.

However, for Ah Shui,
To this day, he had no burdens and lived carefree, always doing what he liked.

This was why, after so many years at the Culture Hall, he still had an innocent and optimistic personality.

In fact, Li Zhiqian was the closest to everyone.

He appeared gentle and refined and managed both the internal and external affairs of the Culture Hall.

During Xia Yangyang’s most difficult years overseas, it was he who provided her with meticulous care.

Thinking of this, Xia Yangyang’s heart still ached.

Yet Lu Haotian spoke from the side, “Godfather, I don’t think it’s right. Li Zhiqian, although hating Godfather and the Culture Hall due to a huge misunderstanding, and thus committing these acts, Godfather, in reality, he had no grievance with my older brother. It was merely because of his infatuation with Phoenix that he became jealous, which led him to murder my brother with his own hands. This proves that such a person has no humanity. If we let him go once, who knows what disaster he’ll cause in the future. I think we should deal with him swiftly, of course, I mean to hand him over to the police. He’s the leader in a drug trafficking case, he will certainly be sentenced to death, but that would still be a fate too kind for him.”

After Lu Haotian finished, everyone fell silent.

Actually, everyone admitted that Lu Haotian’s suggestion was the most sensible, the right choice.

It was precisely because Lu Haotian’s feelings towards Li Zhiqian were the least involved that he could consider the problem from a neutral standpoint.

After a long silence,
Gao Huizhi finally spoke up, “Xiao Qi, what are your thoughts?”

Xia Yangyang thought for a while before saying, “I also think that Li Zhiqian deserves to die, but not now.”

Gao Huizhi asked, “Why not?”

Xia Yangyang replied, “Li Zhiqian’s death is insignificant, but what’s most important right now is actually our third sister. Third sister is seeing Li Zhiqian as our older brother because of the drugs. I don’t know if this condition is temporary or permanent, but now, we can’t deal with Li Zhiqian. If Li Zhiqian dies, I think third sister will certainly go mad. Everyone should have seen third sister’s reaction when my older brother died; nobody wants those events to happen again.”

Another silence ensued.

What Xia Yangyang said was not without reason.

Li Zhiqian’s death was insignificant, but Phoenix should not become the sacrifice.

Previously, when Ah Zhan passed away, Phoenix had already lost all hope, showing no attachment to life, and attempted suicide multiple times.

If Li Zhiqian was dealt with now,
Those events might just recur.

Gao Huizhi felt deep sorrow.

Gao Huizhi didn’t ask Gu Qichen, but Xia Yangyang asked, “Ah Chen, as an outsider, which method do you think is better?”

Gu Qichen spoke in a calm voice, “There is no good method right now, only what’s more appropriate. Dealing with Li Zhiqian isn’t urgent at the moment, but don’t forget, the mastermind from twenty years ago hasn’t been exposed yet. Li Zhiqian is an essential lead. That person forced Li Zhiqian’s mother to her death, compelled her to leave such a letter, and brewed such a tragedy. I am just curious who this person is and why they would do such a thing?”
