Heartthrob: The vampire princess doesn't want to be a stand-in

Chapter 247 Higher-Level Participants

"Each of Juntu's entertainment and entertainment industries are intertwined and rely on the Si family or the Lan family for survival. If they want to achieve such a large scale without our two major families, it would be impossible without some skills."

"So, before I left, I was on guard and followed Director Liu all the way. I heard them talking about a batch of top-notch new goods that would arrive at 2:30."

Vincent looked up at the tall buildings in front of him. The nightclub happened to be in the center.

"Do you think this so-called cargo is Colin's means of inducing the rich and powerful to belong to him?"

Evelin raised her eyes thoughtfully and continued Vincent's unfinished words.

"Yes, I found the location of the main monitoring room, but it does not include the room with the row of black and gold doors on the top floor."

"but…"

"Before I left, I stumbled upon a secret door on the grey wall next to the escape passage on the top floor."

"Inside is a room that leads directly to the underground, and it can only lead to the underground. There are no other floor buttons."

"My men went there and reported that it was a monitoring room, monitoring the boxes that only the so-called VICs could enter."

As he spoke, Vincent raised his hand to check the time, mentally complaining about the long ten minutes.

"But we can't get to the top floor. I think we need a staff member to swipe the card for the elevator to work."

"Besides, if we go in like this, they will definitely not let us in."

Ollie retorted that he just didn't think highly of Vincent from the bottom of his heart and always felt that Vincent would put Evelyn in danger.

"My men have taken over the monitoring room and elevator operating systems, and have also figured out the route to the back door."

"So we entered from the back door and went straight down the escape passage to the underground. There are all my people there, so there will be no danger."

As he spoke, Vincent looked at Evelin, and his confident look also indirectly confirmed the strength of his power.

"I still think we should tell Big Brother..."

Ollie murmured quietly. He always felt that Vincent was too insidious and cunning. What if he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to swallow up the Lan family and start with Evelyn?

"I know what you're worried about. Although I, Vincent, can't be called an upright person, I will never do anything sneaky."

"Competing with the Lan family for power is a small matter. I will not endanger the people of the entire Northern Continent, nor will I take their lives lightly."

Vincent looked displeased. He folded his arms, leaned against the back seat and glared at Ollie.

"You have done enough sneaky things..."

Oli's voice became a little softer. No matter how good his relationship with the Lan family was, his own family was still ranked below the Si family, and he had no capital to compete with them, so he needed to be cautious in what he said and did.

"Okay, just say a few words."

Seeing Vincent’s pressure getting lower and lower, Evelyn spoke at the right time, interrupting the slowly burning fire between the two.

In an instant, the entire carriage fell into endless silence.

In the silence, the communicator on Vincent's ear vibrated. Vincent looked at his watch again and spoke.

"It's almost time."

Evelin looked at him and nodded silently, and then the three of them opened the door and got out of the car.

Ollie hesitated a little, looking at Evelin and Vincent who left in a leisurely manner, but he still took the opportunity to take out his mobile phone, edited a text message and sent it out.

It’s never wrong to be prepared.

"You take so long getting off the bus."

After Ollie caught up with the two of them, Vincent narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth teasingly.

"It's none of your business, I just love to procrastinate!"

Ollie retorted in a low voice with his teeth bared, like a kitten whose fur stood up after its tail was stepped on.

Evelyn listened to the two people's tit-for-tat and did not try to stop them. Instead, she recalled the time when Lilith was a child and Garland, Vincent, Ollie, and Yuri were good friends.

Oli is the youngest and the most favored one among his brothers. Although he likes to argue from time to time, he has never really blushed.

At that time, Ollie and Vincent did not get along well. They would quarrel over the slightest disagreement. Vincent, like before, would say insulting words to them, but his eyes were always filled with affection, as if he was looking at a little brother.

The three people quietly entered the dark escape passage from the back door and went down to the underground.

A faint light came from the end of the dark corridor, and the humming sound of countless machines running was particularly prominent in such a semi-enclosed space.

When the three of them reached the gate, it was pushed open from the inside.

Ollie was about to prepare for a fight when he discovered that the person who opened the door was Enzo disguised as a security guard.

"My lord, everything is ready."

Enzo glanced at Ollie who was still in a daze, and made way for Vincent in front of him.

Vincent patted Enzo on the shoulder and pulled Evelyn straight to the monitoring station.

"Ehh??? Why are your little hands still pulled up!?"

"Let go! You can't hold the little prince's hand!"

Ollie had sharp eyes and instantly noticed Vincent's little movements in such a dim environment.

Then he started to argue quietly, trying to put some distance between the two of them.

"Shhh."

Evelin frowned, turned back and put her hand to her lips to make a gesture of silence, and Ollie finally quieted down.

"This entire wall is the room with the Black Gold Door on the top floor. There is no surveillance anywhere else."

"This is the room where Director Liu entertained Lan Dian just now."

Enzo supported himself on the table with one hand, holding a long metal pen and introducing the surveillance layout route and so on to the three people.

"What has Director Liu been doing in the room for so long?"

Evelin crossed her hands and supported her chin in thought, and she secretly felt that something was wrong when she saw Director Liu on the screen, who looked extremely haggard after only a few months of absence.

Is it possible…

"He and Boss Jin had a meal with a group of dignitaries. Many of them left, and only these few stayed."

Enzo replied, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the screen in thought.

"This person... is Minister Chen!"

Oli suddenly pointed at the big-bellied man who was taciturn but was regarded as the main person and spoke.

"Yes, when grandpa was in power, he helped him take the throne."

Evelin nodded. She had noticed Minister Chen's presence from the very beginning.

The fact that he has been able to stay until this point means that he and Colin have a close relationship.

"I was wondering how it was possible for Director Liu to release Huo Wanqing without any rumors!"

"Chen Qingming is definitely involved!"

Oli muttered in a low voice, his face full of disdain when he mentioned Minister Chen’s name.

"Bah, you bastard! He begged the Lan family for help, but the prince was still so nice to him!"

"That's how you repay us!"

"How dare you cling to someone like Ares!"
