Chapter 463: 465 Close to His Goal (10)_1
Qin Shaojin smiled devilishly, "Uncle, I was originally going to visit Yunshang, but something came up on the way, and since Huo brother was here, and you were sleeping so soundly that I couldn’t wake you, I had to bring you here."
"..."
Qin Mochuan didn’t make a sound, never expecting to be undermined by his own nephew!
His face darkened, showing no intention of getting out of the car, "What place is this?"
No sooner had he spoken than Huo Jinnan approached, "Uncle."
Qin Mochuan looked toward the approaching Huo Jinnan; in the night, the fine fabric of his suit clung tightly to his upper body, outlining a more imposing silhouette.
A bad feeling arose in his heart, and he began to regret his carelessness!
He had been driving to this place without noticing a thing, asleep the whole time.
"Uncle doesn’t plan on getting out of the car?"
Huo Jinnan stood there, his figure emanating a chill in the night air, with Huo Bei following close behind him.
Qin Mochuan got out of the car, "Jinnan, what are you trying to do?"
Huo Jinnan smiled, his voice cool as he spoke, "Uncle, you’ll know once you get down and have a look."
Qin Mochuan got out of the car, took a few steps, and furrowed his brow.
Huo Jinnan addressed Huo Bei behind him, "Tell Uncle Qin where we are."
Huo Bei stepped forward, looking at Qin Mochuan, "Uncle, this is Xiying Ridge."
Xiying Ridge?
The name echoed twice in his mind. Qin Mochuan stood there, suddenly shivering all over and looking toward Huo Jinnan.
Huo Jinnan offered a cigarette to Qin Mochuan, "Uncle, do you remember now?"
"......"
Qin Mochuan stood there in silence, suddenly feeling very cold! The wind blew against him, pouring into his collar, chilling to the bone!
Qin Shaojin had already guessed the ins and outs of the matter and spoke solemnly, "Huo brother, the police have come up with a result. The taxi’s brakes were indeed tampered with; this is no simple traffic accident."
Huo Bei stole a glance then took over, "The person who tampered with the brakes was just found by the Moat, with a corpse that obviously had been silenced to keep from talking."
Standing there, Qin Mochuan listened to these words, which were clearly meant for his ears!
It was just that he hadn’t expected Jinnan to find out so quickly.
The last time, during the meal where they had Sichuan cuisine, he had clearly said he would take care of this matter. He hadn’t anticipated Huo Jinnan would go back on his word.
Huo Jinnan leaned in, placing his sturdy arms on Qin Mochuan’s shoulders, fixing his collar, "Uncle, am I not known for my good reputation on ordinary days?"
Qin Mochuan, now with an added chill, replied, "Of course."
Huo Jinnan let go, gracefully took a few tissues from the cup holder in the back seat of Qin Shaojin’s car, and wiped his hands, "Uncle, truth be told, I really don’t like always being the man of good reputation."
Qin Mochuan remained silent.
Huo Jinnan passed the used tissues to Huo Bei, "Sometimes, breaking a promise can be quite refreshing."
"You......"
For a moment, Qin Mochuan didn’t know what to say. If Huo Jinnan held enough evidence in his hand, then—
At that thought, a wave of dread washed over him.
Huo Jinnan lit a cigarette, took a drag, and said, "Uncle, if you tell me why you had to silence someone, I might just turn a blind eye."
Qin Mochuan stood there without a word.
He certainly couldn’t reveal that it was because Che Huan was his younger brother’s daughter, could he?
Ever since he knew about it, he had never slept soundly!
After years of careful planning, he simply couldn’t allow Che Huan to appear before his younger brother or enter the Qin family, effortlessly taking a share of the fortune that was about to be his!
