章 1187: Chapter 1143: Someone Can't Hold Back Anymore

```

Upon hearing Zhao Xinglong's words, Nie Zhenbang's brow instantly furrowed. He had known Zhao Xinglong since their days in Xinli County. At that time, he was just a young man in his twenties, and now, he was forty-two. Twenty years of friendship. This was not something that could be easily erased.

Nie Zhenbang knew Zhao Xinglong all too well, very intimately even. About the incident at Lingxiao Coal Mine, Nie Zhenbang was certain that Zhao Xinglong must have been aware, since with Zhao Xinglong's character, if he hadn't known, he would never have said those words, "What happened at Lingxiao Coal Mine?"

It seemed that Zhao Xinglong was very familiar with the owner of Lingxiao Coal Mine.

"Xing Long, just speak frankly. Are you well-acquainted with the owner of Lingxiao Coal Mine? Is he also from Jingcheng?" Nie Zhenbang broached the subject directly.
