Chapter 722 The Unstoppable Truth
"You have to think this through. If I die here today, the Bai family behind me won't leave it at that. And Ziyue. No matter what, she's the boss of LK Group now. She's an important figure within the economic market. Do you think Country Z's government will let the murderer go if anything happens to her?"
Yunan's voice was filled with confidence.
He was delighted as he watched Yuchuan's expression change. He continued. "Who hasn't made mistakes when they were young? But you should restrain yourself in your old age. Good will always triumph over evil. This is the way of the world. Do you think you can escape it because you've avoided it so far?!"
Yunan's last sentence was loud and powerful.
As a soldier, it came from his heart.
He had joined the military young and was a troublemaker in his early years. He disobeyed his superiors and refused to endure hardship.
Later on, he felt a greater sense of mission in each assignment.
When Yunan first took on this mission, he thought he could be promoted after accomplishing it, so he wanted to complete it.
However, as he investigated, he found that it had extensive connections. Even family members of his comrades were involved.
Subsequently, not only would this case earn him military merit, but he was also spurred by his duty as a soldier.
Something in his words offended Yuchuan, and Yuchuan's expression immediately turned dangerous.
"What do you know?!" He sneered and sounded slightly pleased with himself. "You say that I'm senile, but young people are useless. You've been investigating Gricy for a long time, but have you found any substantial evidence? Even if you know that I'm Lagos, the leader of Gricy, you have no proof. From the looks of it, you can only watch as I get away with it!"
Ziyue's heart sank at that moment.
It's him.
It's really Yuchuan.
Yunan had been waiting for Yuchuan to say it for a long time.
"Yes. I haven't found any evidence, but it doesn't mean that others don't have proof."
After that, the sound of steady footsteps rang in the quiet lounge.
A man's leather shoes made a dull but steady sound on the floor.
Ziyue knew Muchen too well after being with him for so long. She could tell just by listening to the footsteps that it was Muchen.
She turned her head in surprise and saw Muchen's long figure approaching.
It's really him.
She ran to him, delighted, but Muchen avoided her embrace easily. However, he silently squeezed her hand and signaled with his eyes that he was fine.
After that, he nodded slightly at her before he turned to Yuchuan.
Their cold meeting made them seem like a divorced couple.
Ziyue clenched her hands and felt extremely uneasy.
When Yuchuan saw Muchen, a frantic expression appeared on Yuchuan's face. "Muchen! How did you come out?!"
"I knew my friend was coming, so I came out," Muchen said apathetically as he sat on Yuchuan's other side.
Yuchuan suddenly thought of what Yunan had said and looked at Muchen, bewildered. "No matter what it is, I'm your grandfather!"
"That's right," Muchen sighed slightly. No one could distinguish his emotions.
"Then why would you rather give LK to such a merciless woman than take over Mogwin Castle?! We're related by blood!"
"Wasn't my mother related by blood to you?" Muchen turned to look at him calmly. "But what happened to her in the end?"
"And my grandmother. Your wife. Do you remember how you agitated her so she jumped off a building and killed herself when you knew she had a genetic mental illness?"
Muchen said indifferently as if it had no relation to him at all.
"Back then, my mother wouldn't have had to escape to Country Z and stay there for many years just because she found out Grandma has a genetic mental illness. Even if you didn't love my mother, she was your daughter. I find it hard to believe that you didn't investigate who her murderer was, regardless of how she died. Why is that?"
Yuchuan had a terrible expression.
He was shaking and couldn't help but grip the chair's handles tightly. If Muchen said anything else to agitate him, he would faint.
Ziyue, quietly listening to everything on one side, looked at Muchen in shock.
She understood what Muchen meant. He was implying that the death of his mother, Li, had something to do with Yuchuan.
"What are you saying? I don't understand!" Yuchuan's voice was trembling slightly.
His inner defense was slowly crumbling.
Yunan couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Muchen.
He couldn't understand families that killed each other.
After all, the Bai family was united. If the Bai family's dog was murdered, they would follow up until the end, let alone the daughter of the person in charge.
Muchen had a dark and cold expression. "My mother died because you used Shuzhe."
Yuchuan used Shuzhe for selfish desires and killed Muchen's biological mother. Yuchuan had also… killed Ziyue's father.
Yuchuan and Shuzhe were related by blood to Muchen. One was his grandfather, and the other was his biological father. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
He had moved past his mother's death after so many years. She should never have been born in the Mogwin family.
The most innocent collateral damage was Ziyue's father.
Muchen had seen the man named Su Yizi when he was young. Yizi was sophisticated and cultured. He was a good man and a good father.
However, Muchen's family had killed such a good man.
And Yizi was the father of the woman he loved.
His family members killed Ziyue's father and destroyed her childhood. She grew up homeless and miserable. After Ziyue married Muchen, Yuchuan almost killed their child.
Also, Shichu joined Gricy back then mainly because Yuchuan had used Ziyue to threaten him.
The truth can't be hidden. The truth would be revealed if someone wanted to probe and find out about something.
He had investigated so much but hadn't dared to say anything to Ziyue.
He wasn't listening to what Yuchuan was saying. He raised his head and looked in Ziyue's direction. Her face glistened with tears.
He looked away stiffly.
Does she regret meeting me and being with me?
Yuchuan suddenly reached out and pushed his plate to the floor. It made a sharp and crisp noise as it shattered.
He was enraged. "You treated me like this because you knew about all this! Have I ever mistreated you all these years? I even thought of letting you take over my business for a while!"
"Your business?" Muchen sneered. "Do you want me to continue doing those outrageous acts? Making children test subjects and dealing with everyone threatening you, including your family members. You want to maintain the Mogwin family's nobility and prestige. Still, you secretly want to remain as the leader of the world's biggest mafia organization so that you can fulfill your inner darkness and vanity?"
"Who would have imagined that the Earl of Augsburg is the leader behind Gricy? Not anyone can do what I've done. Those people devised ways to deal with Lagos but don't know I'm Lagos. Moreover, those people respect me."
A sullen expression appeared on Yuchuan's face. Not only did he think he was right, but he was also immeasurably satisfied with himself. He felt highly superior.
Muchen had a dark expression. He looked at Yuchuan and said nothing.
At that moment, Yunan said, "Alright, that's enough. Please come with me, Mr. Yuchuan. The weather is strangely cold. Let's look for a warm place to chat."
As he spoke, armed forces rushed in from the outside.
It was evident that they had been arranged by Yunan.
They surrounded Yuchuan. As they were about to capture him, gunshots were heard around them.
Ziyue's ears were ringing from the gunshots, but before she could react, Muchen hugged her and fell to the floor.
Muchen embraced her and carefully protected her in his arms. She wasn't hurt.
Yunan's first reaction as a soldier was to throw himself on the floor.
When he thought of Ziyue, he turned and noticed the two huddled together.
Love is a strange thing. Yunan had quick reflexes but never thought Muchen would be faster than him.
Yunan had changed his mind about many things after getting to know Muchen and Ziyue. He even wanted to start dating.
It was outrageous.
The gunshots continued. Ziyue looked up at Muchen and wanted to say something but couldn't. Her face turned red from frustration.
Muchen kissed her lips and said in a deep voice, "I told Yunan to drug you so you can't say anything. Otherwise, I would get distracted. Let's talk about everything else once I'm back. Follow Yunan. He can protect you."
