DBSNTM- chapter 92.2

Xiuqing’s death was under investigation. Whether the accident was caused deliberately or accidentally remained to be determined for the time being.

Yibo was cooperating with the police to deal with the matter.

By the time he finished, it was already midnight.

It was daytime in his home country.

Yibo sat by the flower bed outside the police station and called Zhan.

The phone rang twice before Zhan picked it up.

Zhan’s soft voice came from the phone. “Yibo?

“I asked her about Haoxuan.”

“What did she say?”

Yibo repeated what Cici said to Zhan.

Zhan was silent for a moment, but then he asked him, “Do you think so?”

It was obvious that Zhan did not believe it.

But now was not the time to pursue that matter.

Yibo said in a hoarse voice. “Uncle Xiuqing died in a car accident.”

Zhan thought for a while before he realized that Yibo’s uncle was Yijun’s father.

Zhan asked, “Have you told Yijun?”

“Someone has already told him.” Yibo’s voice revealed a trace of exhaustion.

“It’s midnight in Hong Kong. You have to pay attention to your health. Go and have a rest.” From so far away, Zhan could only give him a word of advice.

Just as Zhan hung up the phone, Bowen called him.

What Bowen told him was also the news of Xiuqing’s death in a car accident, Bowen heard it from Yizhou’s subordinates.

Zhan did not know that Xiuqing had an accident when he went to an appointment with Yibo, so he only thought that it was just a simple accident.

Zhan said, “Bowen, you should go to Hong Kong with them. Yibo’s father will also go there with Yijun. I can stay in Beijing alone. But, it’s not convenient for Yibo to stay abroad alone.”

Actually, Bowen intended to follow Yibo to Hong Kong. Now that he heard this, he no longer had any worries and flew to Hong Kong with Yizhou and the others on that day.

---

After the report was given, the Wen began to make Xiuqing’s funeral arrangements.

When Yizhou and his men arrived in Hong Kong, Yibo no longer needed to handle the matters about Xiuqing.

He finally got some time.

Before the funeral, Bowen came back and went straight to Yibo’s room.

Yibo was sitting on the sofa in black and seemed to be deep in thought.

Bowen walked over and called out respectfully, “Mr. Wang.”

Yibo did not look up at Bowen but asked, “How is the investigation going on?”

“My findings are the same as what the police have reported. It does look like a traffic accident.” Bowen said.

Even Fei could be taken away without being noticed, so Yibo had reason to suspect that Xiuqing’s death was not an accident.

Knock! Knock!

Someone knocked at the door.

Then the servant said, “Mr. Wang, it’s time to leave for the funeral home.”

Hearing it, Yibo stood up from the sofa, straightened his black shirt, and said to Bowen, “Let’s go.”

When they arrived at the funeral home, the Wens had been there.

Haoxuan accompanied Cici to greet people who came to offer their condolences.

Cici had lost a lot of weight within a week.

Even the heavy makeup could not hide her age. She looked very haggard and thin.

Yibo nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, “I’m sorry for your loss.”

Cici said nothing but nodded. She looked a little more depressed.

Yibo frowned slightly and looked at her before entering.

Walking inside, Yibo saw Yijun kneeling on the ground.

He was fifteen years old now and knew what death meant.

He had lost his father forever.

Yibo walked to Yijun’ side, squatted down and handed him a napkin.

Yijun looked up with his eyes red and swollen. His nose was also red. He said in a hoarse voice, “Cousin Yibo.”

After that, Yijun’s tears fell.

Even if Yijun managed to keep his mouth shut, Yibo could still hear the sobs coming from his throat.

“I am here.” Yibo answered and stuffed the napkin into Yijun’ hand.

There were things that were beyond control.

In most cases, kind words were of no avail.

Yijun clutched the napkin handed by Yibo and buried his head so that Yibo could not see his face, However, Yibo still saw tears splashing down to the ground like a broken line of beads.

Yibo only patted Yijun’s back and stood up.

After Xiuqing’s funeral, the Wangs planned to return to Beijing.

At noon, everyone sat down in the hall for lunch.

Haoxuan suddenly said, “Mom, come back to Beijing with us.”

When the others heard Haoxuan, they all turned to look at Cici.

Only Yibo lowered his head to have lunch as if nothing happened. He seemed to be indifferent to anything.

Cici paused for a moment and did not reply at once.

Yizhou agreed, “It’s a good idea. Xiuqing is no longer here, Haoxuan and Yijun are at home. You are alone here, so why not come back to Beijing with us?”

Everyone was waiting for Cici’s answer.

Cici put down the fork and said softly. “Not necessary, I’m used to living in Hong Kong. It’s better for me to stay here.”

Just as she finished, Yijun slammed the cup down on the table.

This time, even Yibo couldn’t help but give a sidelong glance at Yijun.

Yijun looked worn out recently, and his pretty little face was very haggard.

He gazed at Cici coldly, “Fine. Do whatever you want. Anyway, you don’t care about us at all.”

Yizhou was the first to get it and shouted, “Yijun!”

Without even looking at Yizhou, Yijun got up and strode out of the dining room.

“Mom, don’t take it to heart. Yijun is young. I’ll go and see him first.” Haoxuan comforted Cici and then got up to chase after Yijun.

Cici was at a loss for a few seconds before she stood up and said, “I’m full. You guys help yourselves.”

It was like a farce. The Wens left one after another.

Only Yizhou and Yibo stared at each other at the dining table.

What had just happened did not affect Yibo. He continued with his lunch.

Seeing this, Yizhou frowned and looked at him with discontent, “Yibo, you and Yijun have a good relationship. Try to persuade him later.”

Yibo said noncommittally, “Haoxuan is his biological brother.”

Yibo put emphasis upon biological brother.

Hearing this, Yizhou’s expression changed slightly.

Yibo did not say anything.

He stared at Yibo for a few seconds before saying, “You’ve known about it?”

Yizhou smacked his hand down on to the table and said angrily, “Yibo, I’m asking you.”

Yibo looked down and sneered, “Is it important? You’ve hidden it from my mother for her whole life. Even Grandpa didn’t know about it until much later, right? You’re something.”

“That was an accident,” Yizhou said with a gloomy expression.

“The kidnapping case, Grandpa’s incident, the birth of Haoxuan, your love’s child, and Uncle’s death all occurred by accident….”

Yibo paused for a moment and mocked, “You’ve been manipulated by accidents all your life. You are a loser.”

Yizhou was so angry that he almost lost his mind. He pointed at Yibo and shouted, “Yibo, do you think I don’t dare to dismiss you from the position of president of the Wang Group?”

Yizhou was furious, while Yibo was extremely calm.

He said calmly, “Have a try. Let’s see if you can unseat me before I bankrupt the Wang Group.”

The reason why Yizhou was willing to hand over the Wang Group to Yibo so early was that Yibo indeed had a great talent in business.

When Yizhou was in charge, the Wang Group had got into a lot of troubles. Only by handing it over to Yibo could the Wang Group develop better.

However, Yizhou had never thought that Yibo would have such an idea.

He looked at Yibo in disbelief, “What good would it be for you to bankrupt the Wang Group? Don’t forget that you are from the Wang family! Our fate is closely linked. We sink or swim together!”

Even though Yizhou was fuming with rage, Yibo remained calm, “But I don’t feel any benefit the Wang Group has brought to me.”

Yizhou snorted coldly, “The food you have, the clothes you wear and your reputation are all from the Wang family”

“I don’t need these things. Even without the support of the Wang family, I can get money and fame. What about you? Without the Wang Group, you are good for nothing.” Yibo put it bluntly and shamed Yizhou as he felt like it.

“Do you really think you are full-fledged?” After Yizhou finished, he sneered, “You can try to bankrupt the Wang Group.”

The tension between them suddenly heightened.

They looked at each other for a while before Yibo said through his teeth, “Where is my daughter?”

“How would I know where your daughter is? You hid her up, didn’t you?” Yizhou smiled triumphantly.

Yibo clenched his hands under the table, and a glimmer of displeasure was between his eyebrows.

Yizhou remembered that Yibo was quite adorable in his childhood. However, after his mother passed away, they became more and more estranged.

In the past few years, Yibo had become stronger. Yibo was his biological son, but he found him hard to read most of the time.

Therefore, Yizhou was sometimes a little afraid of Yibo.

However, Yibo had a fatal weakness: he was too sentimental.

Yizhou could exploit this weakness of Yibo to control him.

Thinking of this, Yizhou put on a triumphant smile again. “My granddaughter must be very cute. When you have time, remember to bring her back to the Wang’s. After all, she is my granddaughter. The conflict between us has nothing to do with her.”

After he finished, he took a deep look at Yibo before getting up and leaving.

The servant stood guard outside the restaurant and greeted Yizhou respectfully, “Mr. Yizhou.”

The cracking sounds of plates falling to the ground came out from the dining room.

The sounds were clear and ear-piercing.

The servant hurriedly walked in and saw Yibo looked down and bowed slightly, his hands on the dining table. Yibo was gathering his wrath.

The ground was messy, covered with leftovers and broken utensils, It was obvious that Yibo had swept those things off the table.

The servant carefully stepped forward and didn’t dare to ask, “Mr. Wang, let me clean it up…”

Yibo ignored her.

The servant could tell that Yibo was not in the mood to talk to her, so she called the other two servants to clean the dining room.

Yibo looked down, his eyes filled with hatred and ruthlessness.

Yizhou seemed to deny that he had taken Fei away, but it was clear that he was threatening Yibo.

In other words, Fei would be fine if they could live in peace with each other.

Otherwise, it was hard to say how he would treat Fei.

Yizhou seemed certain to win, so it was sure that Yizhou had got Fei.

Fei was taken away by someone sent by Yizhou. His purpose was to use Fei to threaten Yibo.

Although they were estranged from each other, they had never really played tricks on each other.

Yibo did not expect that Yizhou had planned to kidnap Fei very early.

Since Yizhou could play such a dirty trick, Yibo was even more certain that there was more about his mother back then.
