Chapter 4 She Concealed Her Bodyguards By Her Side!
In the evening, Qin Ye did not stay at home for dinner. After saying goodbye to Mengmeng, he left as if fleeing.
Walking through the familiar city, Qin Ye felt lost, like a lamb unable to find its way home.
When he was exiled from his family, he and his mother settled in Sucheng. Although they only lived there for a few years, he made many friends, classmates, and neighbors, which brought him a period of happiness.
But now, things had changed, and he couldn't reach out to his friends anymore.
Even in front of his own daughter, he couldn't reveal his true identity...
"Mom, what should I do now?"
Qin Ye sat in the dark night, gazing up at the stars with a look of utter helplessness.
At this moment, he longed for his mother, the woman who loved him unconditionally.
Due to his anger issues, he and his mother were cast out of the family. They relied on each other. Thirteen years ago, his mother sent him to a passing expert. The last time they saw each other was ten years ago when he was admitted to the psychiatric hospital.
"Son, Mom doesn't blame you, but please promise me that you will spend your life making amends for the girl you hurt!"
His mother left these words and then departed from the psychiatric hospital, living a simple life, chanting prayers, and practicing self-discipline to atone for her son!
"Mom, that girl didn't die, and she even gave birth to Mengmeng!"
"I found her, but... I don't know how to make things right. Because of me, she not only lost everything but also lives in misery. Your granddaughter, Mengmeng, she... she wants to kill me, her heartless and unfeeling father!!"
Despite being exiled from his family and wandering the streets, Qin Ye didn't shed a tear.
But now, he felt as helpless as a child, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Mom, don't worry, I will find a way to make amends, even if it costs me my life!!"
Suddenly, Qin Ye's gaze turned sharp: "Wait for me, after I make amends for my mistakes, I will come find you. Take care of yourself!!"
Just then, three silver-white vans roared towards them, blocking Qin Ye's path.
"Clang, clang, clang." The doors opened, and dozens of men wielding clubs rushed out, surrounding Qin Ye.
"Who are you?" Qin Ye's eyes flashed with coldness as he inquired.
The leader, named Wang Hai, had a shaved head and exuded a menacing aura. It was clear he was from the underground world, having taken lives to gain such presence.
He brandished a machete and grinned wickedly at Qin Ye: "It's you, who beat up my little brother?"
At his words, Qin Ye recalled the incident from the afternoon. His expression darkened, as it was this man who had sent people to attack Jiang Nian and Mengmeng. A strong sense of murderous intent filled the air, causing the temperature to drop significantly.
"Did you send someone to harm Jiang Nian and Mengmeng, and steal the design drawings from her?"
Qin Ye narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on the other man.
"Yes, it was me!"
Wang Hai inquired, "What is your connection to that fool and the illegitimate child? How dare you provoke me, Wang Hai, for their sake?"
"I am her..."
At this point, Qin Ye hesitated. He couldn't disclose his relationship with Mengmeng to anyone. If she found out, he couldn't bear to imagine how devastated she would be. He replied, "I am a doctor recommended by Jiang Nian's friend!"
This was the only identity he could maintain by Jiang Nian's side without raising suspicion!
"Haha, a doctor??"
Wang Hai's lips curled into a smirk as he said, "Very well, I'll give you a chance to make amends. Retrieve the design drawings from Jiang Nian, and I'll overlook the incident with my little brother. Otherwise, I will ensure you have no place to hide in Sucheng!!"
This time, Qin Ye came to reconcile!
He needed to remove all obstacles for Jiang Nian and Meng Meng.
Therefore, he had to teach the men in front of him a lesson so they wouldn't dare to cause trouble again.
"The design drawings are in my pocket, shall we go over there and talk?" Qin Ye gestured towards a dark alley nearby.
"Stop talking nonsense! Just take it out!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Hai's eyes immediately focused on Qin Ye's pocket, intensifying. If he got the design drawings, he could receive ten million from the Third Young Master.
"If that's the case, then here you go!"
Qin Ye's right hand reached into his pocket.
Wang Hai and a few henchmen crowded around, but before they could speak, a cold light flashed in Qin Ye's hand.
There was no blueprint!
Instead, he pulled out an extremely sharp black dagger.
"I'll take your legs!!"
Qin Ye's cold voice echoed in the dark night.
"Swoosh!"
The next moment, Qin Ye was seen holding a dagger, like a phantom, rushing into the crowd.
"Ah ah ah ah ah......"
Desolate screams echoed on the street.
Under the flickering cold light, Wang Hai's henchmen fell one by one, their clothes torn by the sharp dagger, blood dripping, and painful screams filling the air.
Meanwhile, Qin Ye stood still, his face calm, his breathing steady, and the dagger in his hand had vanished.
Hiss...
Wang Hai took a deep breath, looking up at Qin Ye with disbelief. When he met those cold eyes, he felt frozen in place, unable to move.
"Don't come any closer!!"
"I warn you, I am Young Master Jiang's man. If you dare to lay a finger on me, he will not spare you!" Wang Hai kept retreating, panicking and shouting at Qin Ye.
"Young Master Jiang? I don't know him! All I know is, if you dare to provoke Jiang Nian and Mengmeng again in the future, you will die!!"
"Crack!"
Qin Ye crushed Wang Hai's legs with one foot and left gracefully!
"Ah..." With his legs disabled, Wang Hai screamed in agony, before falling into unconsciousness, shouting angrily, "Report to Young Master Jiang, Jiang Nian has a bodyguard. That woman Jiang Nian secretly hid a bodyguard by her side!!!"
...
In Su City, inside an office building.
"It's impossible. I've investigated before. There are only her mother and Mengmeng by Jiang Nian's side, absolutely no third person. How could a highly skilled bodyguard suddenly appear?"
Dressed in a suit with a crew cut, Jiang Tao stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the continuous flow of vehicles below.
The beautiful secretary standing beside him took out a phone, walked up behind Jiang Tao, and said, "Young Master Jiang, at first I also thought Wang Hai was talking nonsense, but through surveillance, I did find a man who defeated them easily. Here's the video, please take a look!"
Jiang Tao took the phone and watched the video, his forehead gradually furrowing!
One person, one dagger, in just a minute, disabled more than a dozen people. This method was inevitably a bit terrifying.
"Young Master Jiang, you should know who Jiang Nian is. The creator of Nian Shadow Group, with an unretarded IQ, meticulous thinking, and strategic planning. Even the business tycoons in Su City have been defeated by her!"
"Having a skilled bodyguard by her side is not surprising, in my opinion."
The secretary fell silent for a moment before speaking slowly.
"It's really no wonder she's my cousin. Even if she's foolish, she still keeps a trump card. Hehe, it's okay. Now that the trump card has been revealed, I'll make sure to ruin her!"
Jiang Tao's eyes became extremely sharp: "My eldest brother, second brother has never treated me as a person. I, a returned graduate student, am in charge of this small business. I've had enough. As long as I get the design drawings and earn the recognition of the family in the provincial capital, I can completely turn my life around. So... even if she has a bodyguard, even if she has a hundred or a thousand, I am determined to get my hands on this design drawing!"
"What do you mean?"
The secretary looked up at Jiang Tao, hesitating to speak.
"Go investigate the man in the video, try to win him over. If that's not feasible, then eliminate him, by any means necessary, eliminate him!"
Jiang Tao gazed out of the floor-to-ceiling window at the towering skyscraper, his voice icy.
