Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: The Bone-Chilling Truth 3 He was completely terrified, unable to even speak properly. Can’t blame him, who is this man? He was the mortal enemy of their master, the biggest adversary of their Tang Garden. Even though he wasn’t the CEO of that Business Empire anymore, from the few dealings they had with him, his tactics, his ruthlessness, even now, still left a lingering fear in their hearts. He called out several times before the people in the courtyard came out. As soon as they came out and saw the person walking in, they were also dumbfounded, standing there stunned for a long, long time before they remembered to get someone, and then hurriedly went to find someone in panic. A minute later, when Ou Mucen finally came all the way in and stood in the center of the courtyard, amidst the chaos, finally someone came out who could speak and stood in front of him. “Mr. Ou, you… why are you here?” Xiaojin, who finally came out upon seeing this man suddenly appear in their courtyard, was quite shocked too. This was his first time here after so long, which made him feel a bit unexpected and ominous. Xiaojin’s hand clenched involuntarily… Yet seeing this person standing there, after he came out, the handsome face without any warmth just gave him a cold glance, then his eyes went past him and looked elsewhere: “Where’s Lin Yebai?” Did he come looking for the master? Xiaojin’s throat tightened again, especially after remembering that Aning’s incident happened right after a conversation between him and the master, his face turned even paler: “Are you looking for our master? He’s not here right now.” “Not here? Where did he go?” “Still at the fire department, Mr. Ou you might not know, when Aning’s incident happened, our master went to the explosion site, then because he forcibly went in to find Aning, resulting in the sacrifice of six firefighters, and now, the master is being detained.” So, according to this, those few firefighter corpses he saw in that rubble that day died because of this man named Lin Yebai? He frowned slightly, finally, the initial intense hostility on his face eased a bit. If that’s the case, then he could forgive, because it explained that he was unaware of this matter, otherwise, given how critical the situation was, he couldn’t possibly have gone in if he knew that woman wasn’t inside, to begin with, getting involved in such a big mess for nothing. His anger was not as strong, he gave him another look, and then said: “Then let me ask you, Ye Shen is still alive, right?” “What?” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net “Ye Shen, Ningning’s father, is he still alive?” Where did he hear this from? No, this wasn’t really a secret, he should be surprised, why does this man not know? Could it be… he didn’t know from the start? Aning… actually didn’t tell him? Xiaojin didn’t know that after Ye Ning found out her father was still alive, she and the man in front of her had no opportunity to discuss this matter, too many things happened between them. From her real identity being revealed, to her vow for revenge, to Ou Mucen’s engagement and their final reconciliation, the time they spent together was really not even twenty days. In such a timeframe, how could she have had the chance to tell him this?
