The news said.
The drug lord boss Jiang Datong was on the run and knew he was at the end of the line. He and his second-in-command Jason, as well as several bodyguards protecting him, chose to commit suicide.
The police said when they chased them down, they were already dead.
The initial judgment was suicide.
Suicide?!
It's impossible it was suicide.
If it was suicide, Jason wouldn't have been there.
With Jason there, it definitely wasn't suicide.
Because Jason was brought over by Qin Jiang.
She turned to look at Ye Jinghuai.
Ye Jinghuai sensed an unusual warmth in an instant and asked, “What’s up?”
An Nuan lightly pursed her lips.
She really didn't know who this man Ye Jinghuai was.
She said, "The drug lord is dead. The police said it was suicide."
Ye Jinghuai's expression clearly changed slightly.
"Is that so?" An Nuan asked.
"No." Ye Jinghuai said bluntly.
An Nuan was slightly stunned.
Ye Jinghuai denied it without any hesitation.
He said, "I killed him."
An Nuan looked at him.
"I won't lie to you, An Nuan. What I say is either true or I choose to be silent." Ye Jinghuai was very serious. "I did kill the drug lord. When I went to the fireworks factory, I happened to receive news that the other party was making a deal, so I sneaked in.” As for how I knew there was going to be a deal, I admit that I’ve known about this criminal gang for a long time. In order to make more accomplishments for this election, I wanted to take them all down in one swoop. So I had Qin Jiang investigate this drug cartel for me a long time ago. Then I received the news about the drug deal."
An Nuan listened in silence.
Listening to Ye Jinghuai’s explanation.
She didn’t even know how she should face Ye Jinghuai.
"In the end, they were able to hide in the fireworks factory for so many years without anyone knowing. They have some capabilities. When I sneaked in to take evidence, I was suddenly discovered. This gang is very sensitive to investigations. Of course, it’s not surprising that Jiang Datong used to be trained professionally. He was only seduced halfway into choosing the path of crime. So when they found me, they immediately exploded and burned down the fireworks factory in order to destroy evidence."
"While doing all this, the boss took the opportunity to escape in the chaos. I quickly buried my phone in the ground and chased after him. I’m sure you can guess why I left my phone there. First, the drug cartel colludes with local forces who will definitely help the drug lord locate his precise position through his phone signal, which puts me in an even more difficult situation. Second, if I unfortunately die while chasing Jiang Datong, at least I’ve left evidence behind that I’m not worried won’t be found. As it turns out, my guess was right, you did find it!"
An Nuan stared at Ye Jinghuai for a good while before she finally spoke. "How did you manage to kill Jiang Datong and even all the people who left? Even if Qin Jiang and Hu Feng arrived later, there were only 3 of you, but 10 of them died!"
She didn’t even know why she was asking these questions.
She didn’t even know what kind of answer she wanted.
She felt that none of the answers were probably the one she wanted.
"I just secretly followed Jiang Datong’s group. I didn’t dare act rashly and was also waiting for support. I didn’t actually expect you to go, but I believed Qin Jiang would come. I needed Qin Jiang's help coordinating." Ye Jinghuai's eyes moved, but his gaze remained on her. He said, "With my capabilities, plus Qin Jiang's coordination, dealing with 10 people is not difficult."
"......"
So what kind of capabilities does Ye Jinghuai have?!
How capable is he?!
What is his ambition?!
"Are you afraid of me?" Ye Jinghuai asked.
After explaining everything, he asked her.
An Nuan didn’t know.
So she didn’t answer.
"Don't be afraid of me." Ye Jinghuai suddenly reached out.
And embraced An Nuan in his arms.
An Nuan didn’t resist.
It seemed that only in his warm and familiar embrace could she truly feel Ye Jinghuai's existence.
"One day, I will return to your side clean." Ye Jinghuai's voice was very soft.
But it was a vow.
It was telling her
that one day, he would let go of his current cruel way of life and start living an ordinary life with her again.
"I'm not afraid." An Nuan suddenly spoke.
Ye Jinghuai's hand holding her suddenly stiffened.
"I already love you despite everything." An Nuan said. "I've accepted you're a murderer."
Ye Jinghuai suddenly let out an uncontrollable laugh.
One that was too obvious.
I already love you despite everything......
It really is, I already love you......
"I'm just worried that I'll truly be worthless in your world." An Nuan suddenly lamented.
It wasn't really self-deprecation.
It was getting slapped in the face by reality over and over again.
That made her seriously doubt herself.
"No, you're smarter than I thought." Ye Jinghuai praised her without hesitation.
An Nuan frowned.
Ye Jinghuai said, "Do you know when Qin Jiang told me you had also gone to Laizitang Town?"
"When?"
"After we took care of the drug lord and the others." Ye Jinghuai said bluntly.
"Would you have chosen to come find me first if you knew earlier?" An Nuan asked.
Ye Jinghuai was silent.
An Nuan was still somehow furious.
Ye Jinghuai was actually hesitating!
"Probably not." Ye Jinghuai suddenly answered.
The result after hesitating was still no.
An Nuan felt that one day she would be angered to death by Ye Jinghuai.
"The reason I went after the drug lord was partly indeed to make greater accomplishments. If the drug lord got away in the end, it would greatly reduce what I achieved. On the other hand, if the drug lord escaped completely, it would be like letting the grass grow again after burning it. If we don’t eradicate it completely this time, there will be another Laizitang Town next time. In summary, from the big picture, I would deal with the drug lord first."
Listening to Ye Jinghuai's explanation.
An Nuan was angry but had no reason to throw a tantrum.
Ye Jinghuai was well-spoken.
It would be a waste if he didn’t become a negotiator!
But there was no denying.
Ye Jinghuai's words at least made her realize he wasn't bad.
Although not a good person.
But definitely not a bad person.
A bad person could never think of the greater harm to society from letting a drug lord escape.
"And when I knew you had come here and even went to investigate the truth alone..." Ye Jinghuai looked straight at An Nuan.
He was probably still terrified.
He said, "It was like an atomic bomb exploding inside me."
An Nuan pursed her lips.
She didn’t know if Ye Jinghuai was worried about her or mocking her arrogance.
She felt it was both!
