Chapter 530: Mastermind

“Brother Wei, was the car brake failure caused by a human or an accident?” Yun Xiangxiang asked as soon as she returned to the hotel.

If it was an accident, Yun Xiangxiang would admit that she was unlucky. No one could predict such a thing. The car was still driving well in the morning, but the accident in the afternoon could not be said to be the negligence of the staff.

However, if someone deliberately planned to take her life, she wouldn’t let it go.

“It’s most likely premeditated.” He Wei’s expression was very bad.

Yun Xiangxiang’s heart sank. She really didn’t want this to be a deliberate attempt to kill her. “Have you found out who it is?”

“Not yet. The situation is a little complicated.” He Wei held the phone tightly in his hand, waiting for news at all times. He was here to tell Yun Xiangxiang the reason for the incident.

It turned out that they had checked the vehicles for brake failure immediately after the incident, and found that the brake oil added to Yun Xiangxiang’s car this morning was already spoiled.

The crew who bought the brake oil might have been deceived by the shop and didn’t check it, but the person who added the brake oil to the vehicles didn’t discover that the brake oil was spoiled.

The spoiled brake fluid would weaken the braking effect. In addition, the car had been used the entire morning, and the prolonged use of the brake fluid had resulted in the failure of the brakes.

“In this case, it should be more likely that it was an accident.” Yun Xiangxiang could not understand why He Wei thought that it was man-made.

“Only the brake fluid of your car is spoiled.” He Wei’s face turned green at the mention of this.

They found out that the spoiled brake fluid caused the brakes to fail, so they immediately asked the relevant staff. The person who recharged the car insisted that the oil he used in Yun Xiangxiang’s car and other cars came from the same fuel tank.

However, the other cars were not spoiled at all.

“He shouldn’t be lying. The car should have been tampered with at noon.” Yun Xiangxiang trusted this staff member.

There was more than one car today. If she was the target, they wouldn’t have done it before noon.

When they arrived in the morning, no one knew which car they were driving. Even Xie Manliang didn’t know.

When filming started, she and Xue Yu had chosen the car at random.

Only after filming in the morning did they confirm which car Yun Xiangxiang was driving. For the sake of the continuity of the film, they didn’t leave the scene, so it was naturally the car from the morning.

“It’s hard to find the culprit.” This was what He Wei was most angry about.

There were no surveillance cameras here, and the personnel was very complicated. There were so many people in the film crew, so there were a lot of people who were able to come into contact with the car without being suspected. He didn’t know who the culprit was or if someone had been bribed.

“You want me to suffer in silence?” Yun Xiangxiang frowned. “It’s impossible that no one saw anything. Brother Wei, I want to offer 200,000 yuan as a reward.”

“Offer a reward to provide clues.” He Wei also thought of this idea. “If you agree, I’ll draw up a charter with Xie Manliang.”

“Actually, the reward can be increased. Provide 200,000 yuan if someone has a clue. If they can clearly point out the culprit, then the reward will be 500,000 yuan. If solid evidence can be provided, they will be given 1,000,000 yuan.” Yun Xiangxiang used a simple and crude monetary attack.

If she failed to catch this person, she would have to be on tenterhooks. Since someone had dared to threaten her life and failed, who knew if there would be a second time?

“Okay.” He Wei nodded and left.

Yun Xiangxiang sat down to think. Her phone rang very quickly. She picked it up and saw it was Zhao Guibi.

“I’m fine, you don’t have to worry…”

“I know who tampered with your car.” Before Yun Xiangxiang could finish comforting Zhao Guibi, the latter’s slightly tired voice sounded. Then, her tone became lower. “I’m the one who dragged you down.”

“What’s wrong?” Yun Xiangxiang asked immediately.

“Come to my place. You have the right to know.” Zhao Guibi hung up after saying that and sent Yun Xiangxiang a location.

Yun Xiangxiang immediately asked Song Qian to call He Wei and Xue Yu back. Then, she told them the whole story.

“Is this Miss Zhao trustworthy?” He Wei questioned.

He was worried that Zhao Guibi was the person who wanted to harm her. If this was true, then this trap was simply insidious, wanting to trick Yun Xiangxiang.

“Don’t worry, I trust Guibi.” Yun Xiangxiang’s gaze was firm.

“Okay, then we’ll go with you.” He Wei also trusted Yun Xiangxiang.

He Wei drove a local car and brought Yun Xiangxiang, Song Qian, and Xue Yu to the address Zhao Guibi gave them.

When they arrived, Yun Xiangxiang realized that this was the Zhao family’s mansion. Zhao Long lived there with his eldest son, youngest son, and wife.

“Could it be Zhao Guiquan?” The first image that flashed through Yun Xiangxiang’s mind was Zhao Guiquan.

Zhao Long would never do such a stupid thing and be ruthless to her.

It was possible that Zhao Guiquan was holding a grudge against her after causing Zhao Long to berate him.

However, Zhao Guiquan had just suffered a loss, so it was unlikely that he would be so vengeful. He seemed to be not the kind of young man who would stir up trouble.

Only if he had been forced to a corner could he become so desperate.

Yun Xiangxiang, He Wei, and the others entered the Zhao family’s mansion and found that the atmosphere was very strange.

The servants of the Zhao family all stood outside, not daring to breathe heavily. The old butler opened the door for them with a look of decadence and tears flowing down his face.

Yun Xiangxiang and the others went in together, but no one stopped them. When they entered, they saw Zhao Long sitting on the sofa with an ugly expression.

Zhao Guiquan had a complicated expression on his face. He stood to the side, but there were two tall bodyguards behind him.

The other woman, who was dressed elegantly, was on the ground. Her hair was messy, and there were tea stains on her body. Beside her were broken porcelain bottles.

She was hugging a young man who was tightly bound. He looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old and wore black-rimmed glasses. At this moment, his eyes showed anger and defiance.

He was gazing at Zhao Guibi who was sitting in a wheelchair and staring out of the window.

The arrival of Yun Xiangxiang and the others had attracted everyone’s attention. Everyone’s reaction was very complicated. Only the young man who was tied up widened his eyes. His eyes were filled with unwillingness, quickly becoming bloodshot.

With just a glance, Yun Xiangxiang understood that the person who caused her car accident was not Zhao Guiquan, but this young man.

Looking at the situation, Yun Xiangxiang roughly knew the identity of this young man. He was Zhao Long’s youngest son, Zhao Guizhang.

Zhao Guibi slid her wheelchair toward Yun Xiangxiang and turned her head to Zhao Guizhang. “He’s the mastermind.”

“Which mastermind? The one who harmed you, or the one who harmed me?”

“Both.” Zhao Guibi let out a mocking laugh. “My Grandfather, me, and you are all harmed by him.”

Yun Xiangxiang thought about it and looked at Zhao Guizhang, who still had a stubborn look on his face. He didn’t show any fear or regret.

“All of them were car accidents, indeed the work of one person. It seems that your younger brother likes to cause car accidents.”

From Zhao Guibi’s grandfather getting killed by a drunk driver, Zhao Guibi being pushed off a cliff by a car, then to her brake failure accident, they were all indeed related to cars.
