Chapter 916: The Long Night of Breathing

That night.

The dusk turned a warm orange through the gauze curtains. The rain outside the window had stopped at some point, and the sound of cicadas once again filled the half-open window frame.

Lin Lang leaned against the head of the bed and smoked a cigarette, his face full of joy and satisfaction.

Silver-gray smoke rings slowly came out from between his slightly pursed thin lips, swirling in the warm orange light and shadow, swirling and rising before gradually dispersing, contrasting with his faintly visible muscle lines, blending laziness and sexiness into a natural charm.

Tang Yan curled up in Lin Lang's arms like a satisfied little wild cat.

The corners of her sparkling eyes were still glistening with water, and her sweaty hair was messily stuck to her blushing cheeks, making her delicate skin look even whiter than snow.

The slender fingertips unconsciously drew circles on Lin Lang's abdominal muscles, and the red mark on his neck rose and fell gently with his breathing, turning charm and tenderness into intoxicating wine.

"Baby, do you feel good about being a young woman?" Lin Lang rubbed the top of Tang Yan's head with his chin. He could feel the body of the person in his arms tensed up a little, like a frightened butterfly folding its wings.

Tang Yan's earlobes were as red as cherries dipped in wine. She shyly buried her face in Lin Lang's chest, her voice trembling with muffled sound: "You're so annoying. Don't tease me." The tail end of the tone was crushed on Lin Lang's warm skin by her snickering laughter.

"Baby, from now on you are my woman. Just like you said, your fate is tied to mine from now on." Lin Lang felt ripples of love in his heart as he looked at the beauty in his arms.

"Hubby, I don't know if you cast a spell on me. How come I was slept with by you?"

Tang Yan clutched the thin blanket on her chest to cover her face, but Lin Lang gently pulled it down, stroking her blushing cheeks with his fingertips, teasing: "What? Are you shy now? Who was on the bed just now..."

"Oh, husband, don't talk nonsense!" Tang Yan reached out to cover Lin Lang's mouth in panic, but his wrist was held back. The warmth of their palms made her eyelashes tremble.

"Baby, you are so charming in bed. I am almost driven crazy by you." Lin Lang's eyes were filled with smiles. He pressed her hand against his chest, letting her feel her pounding heartbeat.

The hormonal scent floating in the air gradually became lazy. Tang Yan listened to the powerful beating of Lin Lang's chest and said embarrassedly: "Honey, my newly bought Hello Kitty bed sheets are all stained with blood from my first night."

"Baby, to reward you for saving your virginity for me, how about your husband buying you a big house in the wealthy area of ​​Gubei?" Lin Lang put out his cigarette, wrapped his long arms around Tang Yan tighter, and planted a tobacco-scented kiss on her sweaty forehead.

Tang Yan shrank into Lin Lang's arms, her nose lingering with the unique and refreshing scent of Lin Lang. She said happily, "Husband, you want to buy me a BMW Z4 sports car and give me a big house in the rich area. Are you trying to make me faint with money?"

Lin Lang gently stroked Tang Yan's shoulders and said lovingly, "Silly girl, your husband wants to give you the best of everything and spoil you to the sky."

"Husband, you are so good to me!"

"But I'm not a materialistic woman. I don't want to move to a bigger house. This house holds my father's memories, and I don't want to move to a new one." Tang Yan murmured softly, her voice filled with the sweetness of honey that could not be melted.

Lin Lang lowered his head and pecked Tang Yan on the lips with unquestionable tenderness: "Baby, I gave you a big house but you didn't want it. Are you stupid?"

Tang Yan snuggled into Lin Lang's arms and said with a charming smile: "I'm not stupid, I just want you to love me forever, nothing else matters."

"Silly girl, your husband's love for you must be shown in some way. Just accept whatever he buys for you. Don't save money for me." Lin Lang pinched Tang Yan's pink face lovingly.

"Hehe...husband, did you buy houses for your other concubines so that they can be neighbors in the same neighborhood?"

Lin Lang chuckled: "You are quite smart. You can even think of this?"

Tang Yan said jealously: "I read a news report in the newspaper that a corrupt official bought houses for more than a dozen mistresses, all in the same community, so I thought that you might be able to do the same."

Lin Lang did not deny it, because the duplex villa he planned to buy for Tang Yan in the wealthy area of ​​Gubei had the mezzanine floor above the house he bought for Huo Siyan.

The house that Lin Lang bought for Pan Xiaoting and Bai Xiaowei was located upstairs and downstairs in a duplex villa in the wealthy area of ​​Gubei.

In addition, he bought a duplex villa for Tang Yan and Huo Siyan, and they lived upstairs and downstairs, so there were already four concubines living in one community.

Lin Lang changed the subject and said, "Dear, the BMW Z4 convertible sports car comes in three colors: Sapphire Blue, Titan Silver, Stratos Gray, and Flame Red. Which color do you like?"

Tang Yan tilted her cute little head and thought for a while, then smiled sweetly and playfully: "I think you look good in this red Ferrari, so I'll choose flame red."

Lin Lang said lovingly, "Okay, then give me your ID card now. Tomorrow I will ask Secretary Gu to use your ID card to buy a house in the wealthy area of ​​Gubei. Then I will go to the Shanghai International Auto Show and buy you a flame red BMW Z4 convertible sports car."

Tang Yan was very happy after hearing this. She quickly put on her nightgown again and jumped out of bed barefoot to look for her ID card.

However, Tang Yan, who had been busy with her deceased father's funeral recently, had been in a mess and had not eaten or slept well. For a moment, she forgot where she put her ID card at home and couldn't find it no matter how hard she searched.

Lin Lang reminded him, “Baby, your ID card was placed in a file bag with your father’s death certificate after the cremation procedures for your father were completed.”

Tang Yan followed Lin Lang's instructions and quickly found her ID card. She then asked in confusion, "Husband, how did you know where I put my ID card?"

Lin Lang said pretentiously: "I am not talented, but I know a little about divination and metaphysics. I can tell where your ID card is with just a little calculation."

"Honey, is what you said true or false?" Tang Yan returned to the bed and got into Lin Lang's quilt again.

Lin Lang replied with an exaggerated and narcissistic expression: "Of course it's true. Your husband also has a nickname called Lin Banxian."

After hearing this, Tang Yan's eyes widened, as if there were elves hidden in her eyes. She said doubtfully: "You are bragging, I don't believe it."

Lin Lang said confidently: "If you don't believe me, you can ask whatever you want to know. I can tell you what you want to know with just a few calculations."

Unexpectedly, Tang Yan said, "Hubby, I have always suspected that my mother's death was very strange. Can you help me calculate whether my mother really died of natural causes?"

After hearing this, Lin Lang frowned and said, "Baby, why do you have such doubts?"

Tang Yan sighed solemnly, "My mother has always been in good health, but after she divorced my father and remarried, her second husband Xu Lei bought her a large accidental death insurance policy, and the beneficiary was naturally my stepfather."

"Not long after that, my mother developed a heart disease and her health deteriorated. Less than half a year after her second marriage, she suddenly passed away from a heart attack."

"I was young at the time and didn't understand a lot of things, but now when I think about my mother's death, it seems very suspicious."

"After my mother died of an accident, my stepfather Xu Lei received a large amount of accidental death insurance compensation. Last year, he married a woman who had been married for the second time. After the marriage, he also bought a large amount of accidental death insurance for her."

"As luck would have it, this woman also died of a sudden heart attack a while ago. Xu Lei once again received a large sum of compensation from the accidental death insurance as the insurance beneficiary."

"That's why I doubt the cause of my mother's death. Maybe it's not as simple as a sudden heart attack." Tang Yan raised her eyebrows, as if this knot in her heart could not be untied.

After hearing this, Lin Lang comforted her, "Baby, don't let your imagination run wild. I'll help you calculate whether your mother died of natural causes. Tell me her name and date of birth."

Tang Yan replied: "My mother's name is Li Yantong, and her birthday is September 1958, 9."

Lin Lang closed his eyes and calculated seriously, and suddenly a system prompt sounded in his mind.

Ding! The universal entry system prompts: "Tang Yan's mother Li Yantong did not die of natural causes, but died of chronic drug poisoning. Her second husband Xu Lei deliberately fabricated the disease to disguise it as homicide in order to defraud insurance."

"Xu Lei's specific insurance fraud crime was to secretly use digoxin, a drug for treating heart disease, using the vitamin health supplements that Li Yantong had been taking for a long time as a carrier to mix trace amounts of the drug into the capsule."

"Digoxin overdose can cause symptoms such as arrhythmia and heart failure, which are very similar to sudden natural death."

"Because the drug concentration accumulates slowly within the safety threshold, the initial symptoms such as palpitations and fatigue are easily ignored. It was not until Li Yantong developed heart problems due to chronic poisoning that Xu Lei took the initiative to take his second wife Li Yantong to see a doctor, who diagnosed her with heart disease and started drug treatment."

"After that, Xu Lei would always deliberately pick quarrels with Li Yantong until Li Yantong had an acute heart attack and died suddenly due to emotional excitement."

"When the police performed the autopsy, it was difficult to detect abnormalities because the drug concentration was close to the normal treatment range. In the end, Xu Lei deliberately fabricated the disease to fake the murder and successfully defrauded insurance.

"Even Tang Yan mentioned that Xu Lei's wife, whom she remarried last year, died of a sudden heart attack six months after purchasing a large amount of accidental death insurance. This was also Xu Lei's deliberate fabrication of illness to fake murder and defraud insurance."

After Lin Lang received the system prompt, he was shocked. He didn't expect that Tang Yan's mother, Li Yantong, was murdered by her second-married husband for insurance fraud.

However, because the suspect Xu Lei's operation was flawless, and the bodies of Li Yantong and the second female victim had been cremated long ago, in 2000 when criminal investigation technology was not yet perfect, this was almost a perfect crime.

Even if Lin Lang told Tang Yan that her mother was murdered, it would only add to her worries and sadness. Calling the police would be useless because as long as Xu Lei refused to admit it, the police would have no evidence to prove that he deliberately fabricated an illness to disguise the murder and defraud insurance.

After a brief consideration, Brother Lang had no choice but to take action himself and avenge Tang Yan.

After reading it, Lin Lang slowly opened his eyes and lied, "Baby, you think too much. Your mother died of natural causes. Don't worry about the cause of her death anymore."

Tang Yan hugged Lin Lang tightly and said with a little sadness: "Husband, you are the only person I trust now, and the lover I entrust my life to. I hope you will not let me down."

Lin Lang gently patted Tang Yan's beautiful back and comforted her distressedly: "Don't worry, baby, your husband will love you forever and will never let you down in this life."

Tang Yan felt warm in her heart after hearing this, and said with tears in her eyes and a smile: "Hubby, I love you!"

"Silly wife, I have to go to the bathroom urgently. After I come back, we will continue to do bad things, hehe..." Lin Lang let go of Tang Yan, jumped off the bed, and walked quickly to the bathroom in slippers.

When Lin Lang turned his back to Tang Yan, the smile on his face suddenly stopped.

Lin Lang, with a murderous look on his face, walked into the bathroom. After peeing, he snapped his fingers and summoned an invisible clone. The clone passed through the wall and left Tang Yan's house. Like a ghost in the dark night, he went to carry out the mission of assassinating Xu Lei and avenging Tang Yan.
