Chapter 382: 382, I disagree, you guys should be together.
Shi Yuhuan was silent, his black hair was blown chaotically by the wind, intensifying the cold and desolate atmosphere of the nocturnal scene, where everything was silent.
While he remained reticent, his expression alone communicated everything.
When he decided to act, he had indeed considered the possible danger to Song Qinghuan. He had placed Song Qinghuan in a risky situation, but was confident that he could protect her.
What he didn’t expect though, was that the company’s money-laundering case was somehow entangled with Four Fingers.
Four Fingers was the murderer who killed his parents years ago.
Of course, he could almost confirm that Four Fingers was merely a pawn, and that the actual puppet master behind it all was likely – he thought – K.
K was of course mere speculation!
But regardless of whether it was K or not, he was certain that things had spiraled out of his control.
A bloody storm was about to ensue.
And all of this did not originate from Yan Pingdan, or Li Wei, or Song Qinghuan, but from him — Shi Yuhuan.
The person that Four Fingers intended to murder, it turned out, was not his parents, but him.
He clearly remembered that when Four Fingers raised his gun, his first target was him, and his parents only became victims in their endeavor to save him.
He was merely a ten-year-old child back then. Four Fingers had aimed at him, but why did they want to kill him?
This was something he had never understood!!
All these years he had been investigating, and all the information he had acquired indicated that what happened to his parents and him at the time was merely a common case of murder following a robbery.
He had come to believe this and had been seeking the murderer and thief “Four Fingers.”
But now he could confirm that the common murder-robbery case was merely a misdirection. What he and his parents had encountered was a premeditated murder.
Shi Yuhuan’s thin lips turned white as he seethed, “You’re sacrificing my sister!”
Shi Yuhuan looked up: “I will protect her!”
“Protect? How will you protect her? If you were late today, she could have lost her life! Don’t you know that these people are coming after you? As long as you continue to investigate the money laundering case, she will still be in danger,” Yan Pingdan suppressed his sudden, large waves of anger, his reddening eyes staring at him as he barely could utter, “She’s my only family member left, I don’t want her to get hurt. Therefore, I won’t accept her being with you.”
Shi Yuhuan’s eyes gradually turned cold: “Your consent is not important!”
Yan Pingdan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, solemnly saying, “My consent may not be important, and I won’t put my sister in a difficult position by asking her to leave you. Because I don’t want her to be forced to make a tough choice between her brother and her lover. You are high above, and my sister is just a small player. Regardless of whether you love her or not, for the sake of her love for you, please don’t involve her in your business matters.
Deep down, you should know that the person K really intends to go after is you. It’s incredibly dangerous for my sister to be with you. This time she was rescued, but can you guarantee that she will overcome misfortune every time? You can’t. Even though you are powerful, you are not omnipotent. If you were, you’d already have figured out who K is.
I’ve made myself clear on this matter, this is also the reason I made the sudden visit to see you today. You can make your own decision on what to do next. I won’t force my sister to leave you, I’ll just warn her. If she really loses her life because of you, that would serve her right!”
As his words trailed off, his tone became increasingly ironic. He turned around, seemingly ready to leave.
But how could Shi Yuhuan let him leave easily? His indifferent voice echoed once more: “Who is X?”
