Chapter 1696: He Had Guarded His Status, But He Had to Lose Her

Long Ming pointed at his brain, narrowing his deep eyes as a mocking smile appeared on his thin lips. “Long Di, do you think you can sit in my seat with your brain?”

Long Di’s expression darkened after being humiliated by Long Ming in front of all their relatives and elders.

Long Ming had always been like this. He was arrogant, conceited, and cold, never taking him seriously. Back then, he had just been a pitiful person who had lost his parents, had no one to rely on, and could be stepped on by anyone.

But who would have thought that this pitiful creature would be able to stir up trouble and become a high and mighty king after so many years?

Long Di was indignant. He had been planning this for so many years, and had bought the chip that could control Long Ming at a high price just to usurp his throne. But now, not only was Long Ming standing here, he was even humiliating and mocking him for being weaker than him!

Long Di tried to control his emotions as he glared at Long Ming with red eyes. “Why? You still don’t want to acknowledge something you signed and stamped?”

Long Ming looked like he was really worried for Long Di’s intelligence. He glanced at the people at the conference table. “Since I can stand here properly, how could I have signed such a document?”

When Long Di heard Long Ming’s words, his eyes darkened. “Could… could it be…”

“If you can arrange for a fake Mo Tian to be by my side, don’t you think that I can use that to my advantage and arrange for my substitute to fall into your trap?”

Long Di widened his eyes.

All of the elders who supported Long Di looked uneasy. They thought that they had followed the right person, but in the end, Long Ming was completely unscathed. He was just playing along with Long Di’s plan. Not only could he make Long Di submit to the law, he could also find out whom in the royal family didn’t support him.

Long Di really could not compare to such a scheming person.

Long Di’s expression was ferocious and his eyes were red. It was not that his chip was ineffective, but that it had been implanted into Long Ming’s substitute’s brain.

Long Ming glanced at the edict on the conference table, his thin lips pursed into a cold smile. “What does the signature of the substitute, the fingerprint and stamp have to do with me? Long Di, I still have to thank you for letting me find out what these people feel about me.”

Long Ming’s sharp and cold eyes swept past the elders standing beside Long Di.

The blood of these elders were frozen.

Long Di’s expression was terrifying. He was not willing to let his plan of several years be exposed so easily by Long Ming.

The redness in his eyes deepened. “How did you find out about this?” He had not revealed any flaws.

Long Ming glanced at the fake Mo Tian behind Long Di with a cold expression. “Although the person you arranged looks no different from Mo Tian and learned some of my habits from Mo Tian, there’s one thing he hasn’t learned from Mo Tian.”

“What?”

“I’m so obsessed with Number 21. If I have interacted with Number 21, I wouldn’t pack my shirt in a separate bag even if I haven’t washed it. But this Mo Tian, when he was packing my luggage for me, he took an unwashed shirt from my date with Number 21 and put it in a separate bag.”

The fake Mo Tian’s pupils constricted slightly. Mo Tian had indeed never mentioned this to him.

Long Di had also not expected that Long Ming, who had always been a clean freak, would have such a hobby. After interacting with Xiao Ying, he would not even put the shirt he had on into a separate bag.

It was this small oversight that had caused his plan to fail!

Long Di turned around and kicked the fake Mo Tian’s abdomen.

His expression twisted. “Long Ming, I don’t want the throne anymore. Let me go.”

Long Ming seemed to have heard a good joke and a cold smirk appeared on his lips. “Long Di, it’s still broad daylight. It’s not good to daydream.”

“Where’s Mo Tian?” Long Di’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness and madness. “He was your confidant for many years. He did not betray you. He was only used by his biological elder brother, but his heart is still for you. Do you really have the heart to let him die without a grave?”

Long Ming pursed his lips and clapped his hands. The door to the meeting room was pushed open once more.

Mo Tian was helped in by two bodyguards in black.

He was covered in injuries and was in a terrible state. When the fake Mo Tian saw him, his pupils constricted. “Master, you said that you wouldn’t hurt my younger brother as long as I did as you asked.”

Long Di ignored the fake Mo Tian. Seeing that Mo Tian had been saved, his expression was extremely dark. “How is that possible?”

Mo Tian had been locked in an extremely hidden basement by him. How had Long Ming managed to find him?

Long Di’s mind spun quickly. He seemed to have thought of something and his expression froze for a moment. “Ha… I actually fell into that woman’s hands again. B*tch, b*tch!”

With that said, he glared at Long Ming with red eyes. “You’re ruthless too. You actually let your beloved woman approach me on purpose.”

Long Ming’s eyebrows darkened.

Xiao Ying had put a tracker in Long Di’s hair that was invisible to the naked eye. That tracker was very sticky and would not be noticed even if he washed his hair unless he cut it off.

However, Long Ming had not arranged for Xiao Ying to do so. If he had known that she was going to take another risk for him, he would definitely have objected to it.

“Try calling her a b*tch again.” Long Ming’s dark eyes were filled with anger and murderous intent.

It was as if Long Di could not see Long Ming’s stormy expression. He looked up and laughed out loud, his face twisted terribly.

“Thankfully, I hate that b*tch so much that I had a back-up plan.”

Hearing Long Di’s words, Long Ming’s cold expression seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. He strode forward and grabbed Long Di’s neck. “What do you say?”

When Long Di saw Long Ming, who was extremely agitated at the mention of Xiao Ying, he started to laugh crazily. “Long Ming, I lost to you twice. I know that you won’t let me escape again. I won’t be able to live and won’t be able to take your throne.But even if I die, I have to take something with me to make you sad!”

The vein on Long Ming’s forehead popped out and his grip on Long Di’s neck tightened. “What did you do to her?”

Long Di could not breathe from Long Ming’s grip and his face turned red. “I got someone to put a miniature bomb in her bag. I thought it would be useless since I would let her be my concubine after you died. I didn’t expect… God, Long Ming, you’re destined to be alone in this life…”

Long Ming looked at Long Di’s hand and saw the watch on his wrist. He pulled it off. However, at that moment, Long Di pressed a necklace around his neck. “Long Ming, the switch is here.”

Long Ming wanted to snatch it away, but Long Di had already pressed the switch.

Xiao Ying had recuperated for three days before the rashes on her face finally subsided. At this time, she was heading to the airport from the hotel.
