Chapter 367 - She was shot two bullets. (1/2)
Deming was sure that the things weren't as simple as presented. Even after going so deep with his investigation, he was only able to scratch the surface of the secrets. The thing he found was just a clue to go deeper and deeper.
He looked at both me who were the only one to know the secrets. ”Dr. Yang, can you please be a little considerate to the topic. I hope you have already been informed by your men about how severe the things have got around”
Of course Yang Yuzhe knew that the things had gotten severe after what had happened in London this time. The people who are intending to harm Lifen now have gotten the idea that Lifen is now having one more person protecting her. Though Deming's presence has increased their strength without any doubt but has also alerted the enemies.
”Fine, ask me what you want to know. I will try my best to answer you”, he said
”Who is trying to harm her and why?” Deming did not hesitate, being straightforward and quick at the time like this has been his specialty.
”I don't know who they are exactly and they have never approached her in a revealing manner. The ones who came to harm her have always killed themselves after attempting their missions. And about the reason I also don't have any idea”, he said and turned to look at the old man, the only person who knew the reason.
Deming too followed his gaze and looked at the man who was really crossing the heights of being stubborn.
”Do you know anything about the accident she went through ten years back?”, he asked again. His words were directed for Yuzhe but his eyes were trained at the old man.
”That accident was also one of the attempts to kill her. And that was not the only attempt, She was attacked in the hospital back to back when those people came to know that she was still alive. She was dealing with serious comatose but still those people did not spare her life. That was the reason behind why Grandpa Li has to create the news of her death”, Yuzhe said everything as he remembered.
”Lifen was shifted in my house for further recuperation as my grandfather was the one treating her. After the news of her being dead, those attempts got stopped. But there was evidence left behind to let us know that they have the knowledge of her survival. The message said that they won't be hurting us for the time being but will soon return. Her life was their play tool”, he continued reading the flashback.
At the last words of the man, Deming found his fist clenching. ”And when did all those attempts start again?”
Yuzhe looked at him and his lips curled up giving a mocking smile to him, ”It started just in front of your eyes”
Deming turned a little and confusedly glanced at him, ”What do you mean? Was that leech, one of their men?”
”Haha … I never knew that this was also hard for you to guess. I am not talking about that jerk whom you are still torturing to death. Rather the attempt that was made in front of your eyes two years back. Have you forgotten that?” Yang Yuzhe said, keeping his eyes on him.
”That …”, How can he forget that? That day was the scariest day of his life. The only day where he was scared was the same as he was scared when he heard his parents getting into an accident and then their death. It was exactly the same feeling.
A feeling where he thought that nothing was left in this world if he does not have her by his side. The day when he regretted the most. Regret that he did not get his feelings at the right time. A regret to lose the most precious person of his life. A regret to not cherish her properly.
It felt like he wasn't losing her rather he was losing himself.
