Chapter 167: Chapter 167: Killing Soone to Strike Their Heart, That’s All!_1
Even with ntal preparation, Shangguan Yunqi still found herself clenching her teeth in frustration.
Looking around, she wondered, “Why has Song Yunuan co alone?”
Could her family be hiding sowhere nearby?
Or was it possible that Song Yunuan hadn’t inford them?
Thinking of their profiles, all of them were re bumpkins; Shangguan Yunqi really didn’t take them seriously and remained very calm.
Taking a deep breath, she impatiently asked Song Yunuan, “Do you rember what you told
over the phone yesterday?”
Song Yunuan feigned confusion and said, “Eh, what did I say?
I seem to have forgotten.
Maybe you could repeat it, and it might just jog my mory.”
Shangguan Yunqi’s face turned an iron shade of blue as she snorted coldly, “Stop wasting my ti with nonsense.
If you don’t tell the truth, I’ll leave.”
“If you dare to leave, I’ll dare to shout out the events of June 5, 1950.
And I’ll add more details than I did yesterday, such as the serial number of that suffocating freight car, the departure and arrival tis, and everything A Da, the man responsible for that train, told you.
That A Da is still alive, and that train—oh, it’s quite infamous.”
The mont Shangguan Yunqi saw her, it was unsurprising that two storylines were triggered.
The first was about her uncle being stuffed into the freight car; the person to receive him at the destination was Shangguan Heng, Shangguan Yunqi’s older brother.
Another segnt pertained to her uncle’s circumstances in Xiangjiang.
It was a secret underground experintal facility.
Her uncle had a unique talent in pharmaceutical research.
Before he turned twenty, eager to go ho and find his mother, he was very obedient, doing whatever was asked of him.
He led the team that developed an extrely valuable dicine.
This dicine was almost impossible to purchase in our country.
Firstly, they didn’t sell it to us.
Secondly, ordinary people couldn’t afford it at all.
The price was astronomically high, but its effectiveness in treating certain diseases was outstanding.
It could be said, the dicine cured the ailnt.
But by the ti he turned twenty that year, her uncle suddenly realized that his gift was different from others.
He might never have a day out.
Consequently, he began various forms of rebellion.
However, the security there was extrely tight, and the majority of the researchers were hired for a hefty sum or had co voluntarily.
A few people expressed sympathy towards her uncle’s plight and were prepared to help him escape.
Yet, two of them never returned after leaving, and her uncle realized they had t with misfortune and decided not to ask others for help anymore.
Recently, her uncle had started a hunger strike.
He had lost his will to live.
Therefore, the guards chained him to his bed, sustaining his life only with nutritional injections.
The two people involved did not trigger any storyline, which suggested their deaths were not directly related to Shangguan Yunqi.
Unlike Third Child Xia, who had to watch Huang Xiaocui breathe her last right before his eyes, an image that was seared into his mind.
At this mont, the slight heat in the air made it feel sowhat stifling.
The sky was clear, the distant mountains barely visible through the thin cloud layer, as if draped with a sheer veil.
There were no willow trees at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, but there was a robust pine in the courtyard, standing tall and lush.
The young girl smiled, speaking neither hastily nor loudly, but loud enough for Shangguan Yunqi to hear every word clearly.
Shangguan Yunqi had just taken a step when she stopped dead in her tracks, her stiff body turning around, her eyes wide as she stared at Song Yunuan standing before her.
Her lips trembling, she asked, “Who are you?
Who are you really?”
Song Yunuan answered obediently, “I’m Song Yunuan.
My mother is Xia Guilan, and you should also know my grandmother.
And there’s also my nominal grandfather, whom you know all too well—the man you took away from us, Second Child Xia!”
Shangguan Yunqi felt a chill creeping up from her feet.
Song Yunuan knew even A Da, which was truly terrifying.
She held back her trembling and asked, “Who told you?”
Song Yunuan, “You guess!”
She wasn’t going to tell.
Shangguan Yunqi’s eyes flashed fiercely, “Song Yunuan, do you know that those who threaten others never end well?”
“I don’t know about others, but I am sure to have a good ending if I threaten you because you’re too bad.
I am the one sent by the heavens to eliminate the evil and protect the good.”
Song Yunuan’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was clear and powerful.
Shangguan Yunqi stared at Song Yunuan with deadly eyes.
If looks could kill, Song Yunuan would have died thousands of tis by now.
But Song Yunuan still looked at her with a smile.
As innocent and harmless as any teenage girl.
At this mont, the window of the upstairs office was quietly opened, and Old Ho frowned as he looked downstairs.
From his position, he could see the main entrance, where he saw Song Yunuan talking to an unfamiliar old woman.
By the looks of the woman’s dress, she didn’t seem to be from Nanshan County Town.
He couldn’t hear from upstairs.
And why is the girl standing at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau?
The reward money was given, and even the certificate from last ti was replenished.
So, was there so ergency?
Therefore, Old Ho straightened his uniform, put on his hat, and quickly went downstairs.
Shangguan Yunqi knew she couldn’t get anything out of this wretched girl’s mouth and rapidly thought of a counterasure while Song Yunuan looked at her with a grin, her big eyes twinkling.
To the uninford, they might think they were grandmother and granddaughter.
At this mont, Shangguan Yunqi’s elegance was gone, and she seed to age ten years instantly.
She concealed the venomous look in her eyes and asked Song Yunuan, “What exactly do you want?”
“To safely bring my uncle back,” said Song Yunuan, shedding her smile and speaking word by word.
Shangguan Yunqi’s face turned gloomy and pale.
Before she got into the car yesterday, she received a call from her older brother, happily informing her that Xia Xindong had agreed to develop A-009.
Their Shangguan family was soon to be one of the super-rich clans.
But now, it seed like she was separated by thousands of miles from Xia Xindong, who appeared to be coordinating with Song Yunuan.
One threw out the bait, the other a bomb.
They had no military power, but they were delivering precise strikes spiritually.
If they didn’t release him, Song Yunuan would drag her entire family into hell.
If they did release him, her older brother would never agree.
Their sibling relationship would inevitably deteriorate.
Even if Xia Xindong ca back, the siblings would almost turn against each other.
Murdering hearts, nothing more!
Shangguan Yunqi hated Xia Xindong.
Bastards will always be bastards.
Why did he have to agree to the developnt?
Couldn’t he have kept seeking death?
That way, she and her brother wouldn’t have fallen out.
Without waiting for Shangguan Yunqi to speak, Song Yunuan kindly reminded her, “You better not tell
— ‘What nonsense are you, a little girl, talking about?
I don’t recognize your uncle, and you’re spreading rumors and slandering.
I’ll have you thrown in jail’ or sothing like that.
I’m young, and I can’t tolerate much.
Who knows, I might just run to Beidu University’s gate to tell stories to college students.
And oh, once this matter is settled, we can talk about other things!”
Shangguan Yunqi clenched her teeth, “What do you an by talking about other things?”
“It depends on your performance.
If it satisfies , it’s very likely we can let bygones be bygones.
If you fail to satisfy , Shangguan Yunqi, old hag, I’ll make you live out your old age in regret and pain!”
