Chapter 445 Never Daring to Return

Chapter 445 Never Daring to Return

Lu Yateng hesitated for a moment and said, "There's been a bit of a problem. A couple of days ago, someone went to my biological parents' house to investigate and asked about my mentally ill brother. I'm not sure if she was sent by Yan Ye."

"Male or female?" Lu Tingyun asked.

"female."

"A woman?" Lu Tingyun frowned even more. "Is she pretty? Does she look a bit like someone of mixed race?"

"I'm not sure about that. I'll call and ask."

Lu Yateng took out his phone and dialed Kong's mother's number: "Mom, that woman who came to our house to ask about something a couple of days ago, does she look like a foreigner?"

Kong's mother replied, "It does look somewhat like it."

Lu Yateng chatted with Kong's mother for a few more minutes before hanging up the phone. After putting down his phone, he said to Lu Tingyun, "She's very beautiful, a bit like a mixed-race person."

"Zhang Qier," Lu Tingyun said after hearing the name.

"Her name is Zhang Qier? You know her, brother? Is she one of Yan Ye's people?"

"Yes." Lu Tingyun stared at Lü Yateng, a ruthless glint in his eyes.

When Lü Yateng heard him say yes, his face turned even paler. He grabbed his hand and pleaded with a mournful face, "Brother, big brother, you have to help me."

Lu Tingyun shook off his hand and coldly snorted, "I'm not your brother. Your brother is in a mental hospital."

"Waaah... Brother, you have to help me. If Yan Ye finds out you don't help me, he will definitely not let me off the hook, waaah..." Lü Yateng sobbed in fear.

Lu Tingyun looked at him coldly for a long time before saying, "For Young Master Yun's sake, I will give you some money. However, you have to promise that you will leave the country immediately after receiving the money and never come back for the rest of your life."

"Okay, okay, I won't come back. Even if you give me money, I won't come back." Lü Yateng nodded and promised that he would never dare to come back again.

Lu Tingyun booked a flight for Lü Yateng to Singapore for tomorrow morning, on the same flight as him. He decided to kill Lü Yateng once they arrived in Singapore to eliminate any future trouble.

After dinner, Yue Yirou and Zhang Qier sat on the sofa, chatting and playing with the children.

After chatting for a while, seeing that only the two women and the baby were left in the living room, Zhang Qier leaned closer to Yue Yirou and whispered, "Yirou, I suddenly remembered that you asked me last time if Kong Zhansheng had a twin brother. What did you mean by that? Are you suspecting something?"

Yue Yirou nodded: "Yes, one night, I saw a normal man in the movie theater who looked exactly like Kong Zhansheng. At first, I thought it was Kong Zhansheng, but the doctor at the mental hospital told me that Kong Zhansheng had never left since he was sent back by the police three years ago. I suspect that Kong Zhansheng is just a scapegoat, and the real murderer may be the man I saw in the movie theater that day."

"In that case, it's possible." Zhang Qi'er pondered for a moment, then asked, "Yi Rou, which movie theater did you see that man at? When?"

After Yue Yirou told Zhang Qier the name, address, and date of the movie theater, Zhang Qier stood up and walked out.

"Qi'er, it's already evening. Let's check again tomorrow."

"It's still early, I'm just checking the surveillance footage. I'll be right back."

Zhang Qier went outside, but ran into Acheng, who was returning from patrol.

"Where are you going so late?" Acheng asked Zhang Qier, frowning.

"I...I'm going out for a walk," Zhang Qi'er said with an embarrassed smile.

“I’ll go with you,” A-Cheng said firmly.

"No need, I'll go shopping by myself. I'll be back soon. You stay home and protect the young master and young mistress..."

"Qi'er, tell me the truth, do you have another man outside?" Acheng interrupted her. In fact, he didn't think that way. He believed that she wouldn't betray him, but if he didn't say it, she wouldn't tell him the truth.

Zhang Qi'er panicked and explained, "No, A-Cheng, what are you thinking? How could I possibly be interested in another stinky man?"

"Then why do you go out every day, and won't you let me go out?"

"I—" Zhang Qi'er's beautiful face, a blend of Chinese and Western features, scrunched up in a bitter expression as she said hesitantly, "I don't know how to tell you this, but it's not what you think, A-Cheng. In this life, I will never love another man besides you. I will never betray you. Don't overthink it."

"I don't want to overthink things, but Qi'er, with you like this, I can't help but overthink." Acheng pretended to look hurt and aggrieved.

"Acheng, I really haven't fallen for any other man..."

"I don't believe you unless you tell me the truth."

"Ah Cheng..."

In this situation, Zhang Qi'er had no choice but to tell A-Cheng the truth. After listening, A-Cheng's face darkened and his chest heaved violently. After a moment, he took Zhang Qi'er's hand and turned to walk towards the garage.

They went to the movie theater to check the surveillance footage from that night and learned from the theater staff that the woman who accompanied Lü Yateng that night was Nana, a prostitute from a hotel. Afterwards, they went to that hotel and found Nana.

Nana was drinking with guests in a private room when she heard someone looking for her. She walked out unhappily, a cigarette dangling from her mouth.

She exhaled a puff of smoke and sized up Acheng and Zhang Qier: "Who are you? I have business to do, I don't have time to chat with you."

Acheng pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet: "Answer me truthfully, and this wad of cash is yours."

When Nana saw the money, her eyes lit up, and her attitude changed completely: "I will tell you everything I know."

As soon as Lü Yateng returned to his rented room, he began packing his luggage. After he finished packing, he thought for a moment, then took out his phone and dialed Kong's mother's number again.

"A-Teng, what's up now?"

"It's nothing, Mom. I just wanted to remind you that if anyone comes to ask about things at home, you must remember to say the same thing I told you before. You must never tell anyone that you have a son like me."

"Don't worry, your dad and I know what to say. But Ah Teng, why did you make us lie? And now that you're back in China, why haven't you come to see your dad and me? Your older brother is still in the mental hospital. Have you visited him?"

Before Lü Yateng could answer, Kong's mother continued, "Back then, your father and I wronged you, but we were just too poor to raise you two brothers. We had no choice but to give you away. Yateng, you came back to acknowledge us three years ago, which means you don't resent your father and me, right?"

"Of course I don't resent you. If I did, I wouldn't have come back three years ago. Okay, Mom, that's all. Just remember to do as I say. I'll come back to see you again when I have time."

After hanging up the phone, Lü Yateng muttered to himself, "Why wasn't it my elder brother who was sent away back then, but me? How could I not feel resentment?"
