Chapter 1065: The Truth of the Disappearance (B)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Yang Ming pushed the door and walked in with Xiao Qing. “Godfather!”
Liu Weishan heard Yang Ming’s voice and looked up. There was a hint of joy in his eyes. “Yang Ming, you are here too!”
“Godfather, I came to see you with Sister Xiao Qing,” said Yang Ming. “Godfather, the past is the past. Don’t dwell in the past… At the very least, you still have Sister Xiao Qing and me…”
“Yes!” Liu Weishan sighed and said, “I know I should cherish the people in front of me. Only that is happiness. I know that… It’s just that after so many years, there haven’t been any messages… I need to know the result, no matter if it is good or bad, so that I can give it up in my heart…”
Yang Ming listened to Liu Weishan’s words. In addition to sympathy, there were some mixed emotions. Liu Weishan is so old. His son and daughter-in-law disappeared all of a sudden. The impact brought to him is imaginable. Others already have a grandson at his age; Liu Weishan is still alone without any children and grandchildren. Although Xiao Qing and I are his goddaughter and godson, we are not relatives. Even if we marry and have children, we can’t let our children stay with him every day, so how can Liu Weishan not be sad?
Xiao Qing is incapable of giving birth. Otherwise, she would be an excellent choice to provide Liu Weishan with a grandson. In that case, Liu Weishan probably won’t think about those sad things anymore.
Yang Ming would like to help Liu Weishan find his son, but there were no clues. The police didn’t find him. Yang Ming naturally was less capable of finding him. However, Yang Ming’s network was quite different. Maybe he could get some unexpected results.
“Godfather, before and after Liu Tianqi’s disappearance, was there anything unusual?” asked Yang Ming.
“Unusual… but there wasn’t anything unusual…” Liu Weishan hesitated and said, “But Tianqi and his girlfriend just finished a project on bacterial culture. Probably the technology of accelerating the growth of bacteria. They even won an international award. I heard that someone was looking for him to buy this technology, but he refused because the technology wasn’t mature, and it was confidential. Later, that person didn’t force him anymore. Not long after, Tianqi went missing.”
“Was it related to that person?” asked Yang Ming.
“I don’t know if there is a relationship, but in the beginning, the police also believed that Tianqi was kidnapped. The purpose of the kidnappers was to get the experiment data of the bacteria. However, after a long investigation, there was no news. It seemed that Tianqi vanished into thin air…” Liu Weishan shook his head and spoke.
This was the first time Yang Ming heard Liu Weishan tell the truth about Liu Tianqi’s disappearance. Undoubtedly, the person who wanted to buy the technology was very suspicious. The direction of the police investigation should be correct, but the key issue was who that person was.
“Godfather, about the person who wanted to buy the technology subject, did Brother Tianqi say anything about his appearance or nationality?” asked Yang Ming.
“No…” Liu Weishan smiled bitterly. “This is also the reason why the police couldn’t solve the case so far. It’s too illusory. At that time, forces from many countries were eyeing Tianqi’s subject and wanted to buy it with a huge sum of money… There were too many cases like this, so Tianqi didn’t elaborate…”
“So it’s like this…” Yang Ming was immersed in thought. “Godfather, did Brother Tianqi leave any information before he disappeared? Or something like a diary?”
“They are in his room. The police had already investigated. There should be nothing valuable. If you are interested, you can go and see!” Although Yang Ming showed the intention to help Liu Weishan find Liu Tianqi, things had been going on for so many years, so Liu Weishan really lost his hope. His heart was also clear that Liu Tianqi was probably dead, or else, it was impossible to have no news.
“Okay.” Yang Ming nodded. “I hope I can find something useful.”
” Hehe , when you have time, pay attention to it. You don’t have to look for it on purpose.” Liu Weishan sighed and smiled. “In fact, Little Qing is my daughter. Only she…”
Xiao Qing just went out to pour tea, so Liu Weishan dared to say this. He looked at the study’s door and said, “The news that Little Qing is infertile has spread. After so many years, it is tough to find another partner. Otherwise, there would be many suitors given Little Qing’s appearance… If Little Qing can give me a grandson, I will be content every day.”
“Godfather, when I have a child in the future, I must let him recognize you as a grand-godfather.” Yang Ming laughed and said, “Sister Xiao Qing may have her own thoughts.”
“Yeah, as long as she feels happy. I won’t interfere with certain things. You don’t have to worry about my opinion.” Liu Weishan nodded and replied.
” En ?” Yang Ming listened to Liu Weishan’s somewhat obscure words, and he was stunned a little, “What do you mean?”
“Nothing. I am old already. I am just a bit confused,” Liu Weishan smiled. “Let’s go. Come along with me and eat something. I haven’t eaten well over these few days. Since you are here today, my mood has improved quite a bit.”
Yang Ming nodded and accompanied Liu Weishan out of the study. Xiao Qing was chatting with Chu Huifang. When she saw Liu Weishan coming out with Yang Ming. Chu Huifang was a little surprised. When she wanted to talk, Yang Ming was the first to say, “Godmother, Godfather is hungry. Let’s eat something together.”
Chu Huifang was overjoyed. Liu Weishan didn’t eat much over the past few days. She didn’t know what Yang Ming said to him to get him to come out to eat, so she quickly went to the kitchen to heat the dishes. The dishes were made already, and they could eat after reheating it.
After eating something, Liu Weishan chatted with Xiao Qing about work. Liu Weishan had regained his spirit. Chu Huifang was so happy. Although she was sad that her son was missing, at this time, if she and Liu Weishan were both miserable, then they couldn’t do anything. It was easy to hurt their health that way.
“Regarding Tianqi’s matter, you don’t have to look for it deliberately,” said Liu Weishan after eating. “I have posted many notices for a missing person, so you just have to pay attention to it later.”
Yang Ming nodded. Although he still didn’t think about how to find Liu Tianqi, he must help him. It just depended on whether there were any clues.
Yang Ming went to Liu Tianqi’s room. He organized some research studies done by Liu Tianqi before his disappearance. He planned to go back and take a good look to see if he could find some clues.
In the evening, Yang Ming naturally stayed in Xiao Qing’s apartment. The soft moonlight shone at the bedside. After their intimate bedtime activity, Xiao Qing snuggled in Yang Ming’s arms, but she was sobbing gently.
“Qing Qing, what’s wrong with you?” When no one was around, Yang Ming wouldn’t call Xiao Qing as Sister Xiao Qing; he would try to close the distance between them.
“Yang Ming, I want a child…” Xiao Qing hesitated.
Yang Ming listened to Xiao Qing’s words, and he was slightly stunned. Then he said, “Have you heard what Godfather said in the study today?”
” En …” Xiao Qing nodded. “If godfather has a grandson with him, he will not be lonely.”
“It is a good thing to have children! I will fully support… Why are you crying?” Yang Ming wondered.
“I… I am sick… I can’t give birth…” Xiao Qing whispered.
“Qing Qing, in what year did you check it? It should be around seven to eight years since you checked, right? How can the medical level at that time be the same as it is now? This illness should be easily cured now!” said Yang Ming. “If you want children, I will accompany you to the hospital tomorrow.”
“But…” Xiao Qing’s voice whimpered again. “You and I… having children? How can this work? You are still going to university…”
“What can’t it be?” Yang Ming finally knew why Xiao Qing was worried. What she really feared was the age gap between herself and him, the gap between the brother and sister, not the so-called infertility. Probably Xiao Qing’s own heart was also clear that it was not a difficult thing to cure her illness at the current medical level.
“You… will you allow me to have a child?” Xiao Qing looked at Yang Ming incredibly, but her eyes were full of expectations.
“Why I wouldn’t allow it?” Yang Ming smiled. “You want to give me a baby. I am so happy. How can I stop you?”
“Aren’t you afraid I will use my child as an excuse to threaten you?” After listening to Yang Ming’s words, Xiao Qing showed a happy smile on her face.
“If you wanted to threaten me, you would have done it long ago. Moreover, you can also threaten me from the fact that I have special abilities…” Yang Ming smiled and said, “Okay, let’s skip those words. If you want to have a child, I will accompany you to the hospital tomorrow to check it out.”
Since Yang Ming had special abilities, he had experienced many life and death matters. His thoughts were much more mature than his normal peers. Therefore, he naturally supported Xiao Qing to have a child.
Moreover, the most critical point was that although Xiao Qing looked around the same age as him, her age could never be changed. Xiao Qing was already thirty years old. In a few years, it would become more and more difficult to have children. Yang Ming was thinking of Xiao Qing’s sake. He wanted to give her a complete home which was something that a woman deserved.
Chen Mengyan and Lin Zhiyun were nothing. They were still young. It wasn’t too late to have children ten years later, but Xiao Qing was different.
“Thank you… Yang Ming…” Xiao Qing laid in Yang Ming’s arms and said happily.
“Don’t thank me. The key is how do you tell godfather after you have a child?” smiled Yang Ming. “I don’t want to be an invisible dad.”
Xiao Qing was astounded. She hadn’t considered how to tell them. After all, their relationship was very awkward. It was difficult to accept a change from a brother-sister relationship to a loving one.
“We will say it later… It will take some time to cure the illness. It can’t be cured immediately,” said Xiao Qing.
“Well, let’s talk about it later…” Yang Ming nodded and smiled. “But now, we should continue to work hard for our children. Maybe there is a miracle, and you can have a child without treatment.”
“Stop it… it’s impossible!” Xiao Qing complained, but she didn’t refuse.
After receiving a confirmation from Yang Ming, Fang Tian sent an email to General Kars recommending him to find an organization called the “Black Butterfly Assassin Group,” telling him that the previous mission for assassinating Dorsk was also done by the Black Butterfly Assassin Group. Therefore, the diamond mine should be claimed by them.
Initially, General Kars was also suspicious of what the Black Butterfly Assassin Group was. After all, he had never heard of this newly formed organization. But since the King of Assassins said that the previous mission was done by the Black Butterfly Assassin Group, and the King of Assassins also praised it highly, then it must not be wrong.
As a result, General Kars posted a mission on the World Assassin Alliance website through the usual channels and designated the Black Butterfly Assassin Group to take the mission. The reward was the indefinite rights to use two undeveloped gold mines.
This was because General Kars really had no money, and he just took his position recently. The military expenses were a little tight, let alone having money to hire the assassin. Moreover, the money on the Huang Family’s side wasn’t paid yet, but the Li Family was also involved in it. General Kars had to give the Li Family face by reducing the contract money from the previous five billion US dollars to two billion US dollars. He had given enough face to the Li Family.
However, even so, the Li Family people had to think well about it. The Huang Family was definitely not going to pay another penny. The two billion was fully funded by the Li Family, and they bought buy half of the gold mine’s shares with two billion US dollars. It didn’t look like a good deal no matter what. After all, in South Africa’s Country X, the Huang Family relied mainly on the Li Family’s relationship and connections. They were nothing without the Li Family.
Therefore, the Li Family needed to have a meeting to analyze the pros and cons carefully. If the shares of the Huang Family were reduced, the Huang Family would certainly not agree. They had already invested five billion US dollars before. They wouldn’t pay more money.
Of course, what really attracted Li Zhicheng wasn’t the investment of gold mines, but that his son, Li Tianjia, really fell in love with the Huang Family’s younger daughter, Huang Lele.
Therefore, after Li Zhicheng considered the pros and cons, Li Tianjia and Huang Lele’s marriage became the key to the matter. Li Zhicheng also passed a message to Huang Xiaofei. As long as Huang Lele married into the Li Family, he would deal with South Africa’s matter.
After receiving the news from Li Zhicheng, Huang Xiaofei was persuading Huang Lele to agree to the marriage. However, Huang Lele was stubborn. She wouldn’t agree, no matter what.
Of course, it wasn’t impossible to forcibly kidnap Huang Lele to the wedding. But knowing Huang Lele’s temper, who knew what she would do in the future? They could control her once, but not forever, right?
If they were sloppy, and Huang Lele left home, the relationship between the Huang Family and the Li Family would become tense.
“Lele, our family has reached a moment of crisis… Dad is begging you this time…” Huang Xiaofei looked at his daughter who was sitting in front of the computer and sincerely begged.
“No.” Huang Lele did not know how many times she said this word. She would never marry Li Tianjia.
“Little girl, I have seen that Li Tianjia. He looks talented, and he is the heir to the Li Family. If you marry him, you will not suffer!” Huang Rongtian also persuaded her.
“I said. I’m not marrying.” Huang Lele had started to hate her big brother and father in the past few days. The original kind father and big brother were forcing her to marry a person who she didn’t like. “If you want to marry him, marry him yourself. I have a boyfriend already.”
“Do you have a boyfriend?” Huang Rongtian sneered. “Did you get the family’s consent before you got a boyfriend? You are a Huang Family person. You have to look for a boyfriend with a similar social status. Can your boyfriend help to solve Africa’s matter? It’s only the right choice to marry Li Tianjia!”
Huang Lele really couldn’t stand it anymore. Finally, she couldn’t help but say, “Well, aren’t you just losing six billion US dollars in Africa? I will give you the money, then you can stop forcing me, alright?”
“Do you have the money?” Huang Xiaofei glanced at his daughter suspiciously. Huang Lele had been working as a flight attendant in the airline since graduation. Although her income was very high, it was still at the level of hundreds of millions, let alone six billion US dollars.
“My boyfriend gave it to me. If you don’t force me, I will give it to you.” Huang Lele grit her teeth.
“Really?” Huang Rongtian felt that it was impossible. My sister’s boyfriend will give her so much money?
“If you look, wouldn’t you know?” Huang Lele opened the online banking window on the computer, inquired about the amount in the card, and then turned the computer screen to the side.
Huang Rongtian quickly came over and looked down. Even Huang Xiaofei couldn’t sit still. His eyes fixed on the computer screen. He couldn’t help but scream, “Forty billion patacas? Lele, what does your boyfriend do?”
This was the first time Huang Xiaofei had taken the initiative to ask about Huang Lele’s boyfriend. Previously, when Huang Lele told him about it, he interrupted her impatiently.
“I don’t know. He is a college student in the Mainland.” Huang Lele shook her head and said, “However, he is very good to me. He won this money from the Nancheng Casino, then he gave it all to me…”
“Nancheng Casino?” Huang Xiaofei was stunned, he naturally knew what the Nancheng Casino was. It was the powerful enemy of their Huawei Casino, but he was busy with Africa’s matter all this while. He had no energy to bother about the casino. When he suddenly heard Huang Lele saying her boyfriend won forty billion patacas from the Nancheng Casino, he suddenly became shocked. “When? Why did nobody tell me?”
“It was just a few days ago… You can call and ask Uncle Zhang.” Huang Lele saw that things seemed to have taken a turn, so she explained.
Huang Xiaofei immediately called President Zhang of the Huawei Casino in Macau and asked about Yang Ming. President Zhang naturally told the full story.
“How can you not inform me of such a big matter?” Huang Xiaofei heard that the Nancheng Casino had lost and moved out of its original location, and his heart was happy, but he complained why President Zhang didn’t inform him of such good news.
“The person who did it was Lele’s boyfriend, not from our casino. I thought Lele would definitely tell you something…” President Zhang didn’t dare to talk, fearing that Huang Xiaofei thought he wanted to take credit. Therefore, he kept silent, but he didn’t expect Huang Lele to say nothing until now.
