Chapter 209: Bolt from the Blue
Old Master Ji held the necklace and looked at his two sons, sighing.
“You two may go. I have something else to attend to.” Old Master Ji dismissed his two sons. After they left, Old Master Ji made a telephone call.
“I have Pearl’s controller in my hand. Are you interested in acquiring it?” Old Master Ji curved a smile, hearing the other party’s shocked breath.
It was one thing for Han Wuyu to receive a telephone call for no reason. To receive such astonishing news after answering the call was another. He had been searching for that item in Steven’s possession, and he hadn’t expected someone to get there first.
“Would it be an honor to meet?” Han Wuyu said calmly. No matter who the other party was, what was meant to come would eventually arrive. So why drag things out? This was not his style.
Old Master Ji chuckled lightly, “Certainly.”
Old Master Ji greatly appreciated Han Wuyu as a person, but if it weren’t for another individual, he might have liked Han Wuyu very much （ Guess who that person is? ）
The time Han Wuyu and Old Master Ji agreed upon was noon tomorrow. Old Master Ji began his journey immediately. After hanging up the telephone, Han Wuyu realized the call had no originating location.
Old Master Ji got into a black Rolls-Royce. He did not appear aged at all, his eyes keenly fixed on the outside.
Yin Lingyan sought out Han Wuyu. Looking at Han Wuyu’s face, she had panda eyes.
“I’ve thought it through. We cannot be siblings.” This was the result of Yin Lingyan’s night of contemplation. She hadn’t slept at all, constantly pondering this problem.
Han Wuyu looked at Yin Lingyan with admiration. “Leave everything to me.”
Unexpectedly, Yin Lingyan firmly shook her head upon hearing this. “Mother definitely knows something about this, or in other words, there’s a reason preventing us from being together. I need to find Mother. Brother has been missing for many days; he must know where Mother is.”
Yin Lingyan’s analysis was spot on. Even Han Wuyu admitted he was inferior. It was difficult for her to have thought of all this.
Han Wuyu was also aware of this problem, which was why he had searched for items from over a decade ago. However, without concrete evidence, he couldn’t casually slander anyone.
Yin Lingyan took Han Wuyu’s hand and said firmly, “This time, I will no longer be cowardly. I will not run away. I want to face this with you.”
For a woman to say such words required immense courage. If it were another woman, she would have surely argued with him and quickly separated, leaving the matter for others to handle without making any effort herself.
“Okay.” Han Wuyu did not refuse her; instead, he agreed. He had already decided to tell her some things.
“Tomorrow, I have an appointment with someone. I’ll tell you the location. Come find me after noon; I have something to tell you.” Han Wuyu had calculated the time. The matter of Pearl would be resolved in the shortest possible time, so he had decided to tell her everything about the underworld; Pearl, and the Heart of the King.
Yin Lingyan nodded. The two walked hand in hand, looking incredibly picturesque.
The next day
Han Wuyu went out dressed in his finest. Today, he would tell Yin Lingyan all the truths, as well as about their previous breakup.
Upon arriving at the agreed-upon location, he saw an old man sitting there from afar, leisurely drinking coffee.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been out. This world has changed so much,” Old Master Ji sensed Han Wuyu’s presence, put down his coffee, and said slowly, his gaze still fixed outside.
