Learning To Love Again - Chapter 115 She Is Still Alive
A man with a grey suit sits in a dark room staring at a T.V screen. The evening news is airing.
He half listens to it, while he checks and replies important e-mails on his phone.
Police officers are reporting a dangerous criminal on the loose. A woman around the age of twenty-nine kidnapped and brutally tortured two of her female co-workers. Even though the women have been rescued, they are still in the hospital recovering from their injuries while the suspect is on the run.
The picture of a noble-looking woman is displayed on the screen.
She has shoulder length black hair, straightened and cut to perfection. She is wearing a neat black suit with her inner shirt buttoned all the way to the top and a red tie knotted firmly around her neck.
She looks very proper. It makes it almost impossible to tie such a vicious crime to the person on the screen.
Her looks are quite ordinary so she can easily blend into a crowd. If not for the long scar on her face and her stoic expression, you could mistake her for anyone you see on the street.
The man stares at the screen. His fingers typing on his phone pause and his eyes remain fixed on the young woman.
His face scrunches up into a frown. ‘This girl…she looks so familiar?’
He reads the name at the bottom of her picture before his eyes widen in shock.
Shen Xun?
Is this really Shen Xun?
Shen Xun… his maternal cousin.
The girl his family took in after her parents died.
The girl he thought went missing along with his mother and only two sisters twelve years ago?
If she is still alive, then where is his mother and sisters?
Does she know about them?
Why didn’t she return?
Most importantly, how is she a criminal now?
…
Han Yuan stops his car in front of Su Lian’s house. He gets out and rushes for the door. He has only been a way from his newly found ‘family’ for a few hours, yet he misses them so much. He can’t remember the last time that he has felt this happy. Su Lian gave birth to his own son. He has a child with his beloved.
When he found out Su Lian had a son, he felt disheartened. Even though the he had no idea that he was the father, he was willing to accept the child as his own, just because he is Su Lian’s. He couldn’t force it though and had no excuse to get close to her. He could only wait patiently for her to open up to him again.
But now, knowing that the boy is his own flesh and blood makes him happy beyond measure. Not only does she now have to let him into her life, he has an assistant as a bonus.
If the boy is obedient, he might be able to help him win his wife over.
Just thinking about it makes him ecstatic.
He walks to the door and rings the bell, but there is no answer. After waiting for a while, there is still no movement. He tries calling Su Lian’s phone, but she doesn’t pick up.
Han Yuan panics immediately. He looks around and sees that Su Lian’s car is parked not too far from his with the doors open, but there is no one inside.
Why would she leave a Rolls Royce in the middle of the street unattended?
Han Yuan walks over to the car and immediately becomes alarmed. The engine is on with the keys in.
Even though the neighborhood is somewhat nice, that doesn’t mean that there are no thieves. If anything, a nice neighbourhood is a sweet spot for robbers. Why would she do something so careless?
