Chapter 250: A Chilling Truth
Although it was morning, the current S City was in a haze, giving one the illusion of being in the evening.
Su Wan sat in the car and she opened the window a little. The cool breeze brought along light rain and fog, making Su Wan calmer.
“Close the windows. Be careful not to catch a cold.” Suddenly, the magnetic voice of Jiang Xuecheng sounded.
Su Wan closed the window silently and turned her head to the side while she stared at the man beside her.
“Xuecheng, how did you find him?”
Although she did not mention names, both of them understood ‘he’ referred ti the murderer who had caused Su Wan’s parents’ death.
Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes landed on Su Wan and very quickly s.h.i.+fted his eyes onto the road in front.
“The fox will definitely show its tail one day. I cab only say that Sun Yiming is too impatient…”
Just ahead was a turn. Jiang Xuecheng paused, he calmly brought his car to the left and merged smoothly into the traffic flow.
“We called his mother under the guise of the police and asked her about who had been giving her money on a regular basis. His mother sent someone to contact Sun Yiming and he bought a flight ticket for this morning.”
Hearing Jiang Xuecheng’s explanation, Su Wan let out a long sigh.
“Sun Yiming is very brave. He dares to return to S City.”
“People’s desires begin with greed and this is the place he had lived in for decades. There must be some things he can’t let go of.”
If Sun Yiming had not taken Xie Lan’s blue diamond necklace after Su Wan’s parents’ car accident, he could probably have stayed hidden a little longer.
Jiang Xuecheng’s voice was as light as the wind. Su Wan recalled the days she was in Dong Chen Country. Although the foreign land was wonderful, it couldn’t compare to one’s home country.
She wondered how Lin Fei’er’s life was in Dong Chen.
***
On a street not far from S City International Airport, only a Volkswagen Phaeton was parked by the road.
Because one section of the road was under construction, it had not been opened. So, it was very empty and there were very few people seen.
In the curtain of rain, a black Koenigsegg Agera R appeared in a flash. Not long after that, it stopped steadily in front of the Volkswagen Phaeton.
Before Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng got down from the car, Ah Si, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, noticed them.
Ah Si hopped off the car and nodded respectfully at Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng.
“Young Master, Young Madam.”
Jiang Xuecheng winded down the car window and nodded slightly at Ah Si. Then, he opened the door and got down from the car with Su Wan.
Su Wan took a curious glance at Ah Si with doubtful eyes. “Where is he? Why can’t I see him?”
Ah Si smiled simply and then walked toward his car. He opened the back door and reported, “Young Madam, I tied him here because he wasn’t obedient.”
Su Wan pursed her lips and craned her neck to look inside. At the back seat of the car sat a man who was tied up. His eyes were shut and his mouth was sealed with a piece of cloth. He looked rather miserable.
This man looked like he was in his forties. Before Ah Si brought him here, he had obviously been engaged in a fierce fight with Sun Yiming, or Sun Yiming wouldn’t have had a swollen face like this.
Su Wan glanced at Ah Si from head to toe, worried that he might have gotten hurt too.
“Ah Si, did you bring him here alone? Are you injured?”
Upon hearing what Su Wan said, he tilted his jaw proudly.
“Don’t worry, Young Madam. This is nothing to me.”
As Ah Si spoke, he looked at Jiang Xuecheng and there was awe in his eyes.
“Young Master is much better than I am, though. Back then, we underwent training together and Young Master could even knock our coach out.”
Su Wan shot Jiang Xuecheng a doubtful look and suddenly recalled his unkempt look back then when she rescued him. A deep disbelief sprang up in her heart.
Jiang Xuecehg could guess what she was thinking just by looking at her expression. However, he did not defend himself but said faintly, “Alright, serious matters first. Drag him out.”
Ah Si nodded and dragged Sun Yiming out from the back seat immediately.
Sun Yiming was not fully conscious. When he was dragged to the ground by Ah Si, he was woken up with a kick.
Sun Yiming trembled with fear and look around him. He noticed Jiang Xuecheng immediately and then his eyes landed on Su Wan who was standing beside Jiang Xuecheng.
This tall man was currently shaking like chaff. He knew he would end up in the hands of these two people sooner or later.
It would be his mother’s birthday in several days. He shouldn’t have returned from abroad but couldn’t stop his yearning of his home country, and so, he secretly flew back without informing his superior. As a result, he had been discovered…
Su Wan saw Sun Yiming’s face trembling non-stop and he let out a ‘mmf’ sound. A dim light flashed through her eyes.
“Ah Si, please remove the cloth. I wish to hear what he’s trying to say.”
Ah Si immediately pulled the cloth from Sun Yiming’s mouth.
Sun Yiming took in big breaths of fresh air and then shook his head violently, as if asking for mercy.
“I beg you. I did everything. Please don’t hurt my mother.”
There wasn’t a bit of compa.s.sion in Su Wan’s heart as she watched the man crying in front of her. She merely felt cold.
Sun Yiming had a mother, but didn’t she have one too?
Su Wan didn’t know this man. Her parents didn’t know this man either but Sun Yiming had brutally killed her parents for an unjust gain.
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Sun Yiming from above. His voice was steady and calm, like a deep lake in the night.
“Tell me how you did it.”
Sun Yiming seemed terrified. His lips trembled and he started to recall hard. “Su Jiankai gave me lots of money to murder Su Jianyan. I was moved and on that stormy night…”
That night, he was driving a car, lurking behind Su Jianyan and Xie Lan’s car. His anxiety that day was no less than what he felt now.
He would always remember how the moment Su Jianyan and Lie Lan died, Su Jianyan had s.h.i.+elded Xie Lan with his body to protect her. He only sighed and said Su Jianyan was a man with infatuation before he was attracted by the blue diamond necklace on Xie Lan’s neck.
If he had known that the blue diamond necklace would create an opportunity for him to be killed, he would definitely not covet that much!
Before waiting for Sun Yiming to finish, Su Wan was ghastly pale. She looked at Jiang Xuecheng and her body trembled uncontrollably.
“What he said is true? It was Uncle…”
It was Su Jiankai. How could it be Su Jiankai?
Even in the worst of times when her uncle and his family had seized her shares, Su Wan had never suspected him of murdering his own brother!
