Chapter 696
The Surrogate Bride Of The Colonel He
âI hate to have a younger brother like him who is constantly causing us trouble. Arenât you afraid that one day he will got us all killed?â
Man Dawei seemed to speak earnestly; but in fact, he was wild with joy inside.
âThatâs right, but heâs your brother!â
At this moment, Man Dali couldnât see through his eldest son and had no clue what he was thinking.
âMan Dasi?â Ke Jie gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted Man Dasiâs name, âThat damn bastard.â
He shook off Man Daliâs hand, then hurriedly walked outside of the courtyard. It was unknown where he was going, but he still held the gun in his hand.
âIt looks like thereâs something more behind it,â Zuo Bo lit a cigarette, puffed out a mouthful of smoke, then said.
âJudging from Ke Jieâs expression, he must be acquainted with Man Dasi and that they know each other very well. Otherwise, he wouldnât have run away after hearing Man Dasiâs name.â
âWhat should we do now? Should we catch up with Ke Jie? He seems to know where Man Dasi is,â Zuo Bo put out his cigarette and asked He Jingyan.
He Jingyan didnât say anything but he scowled and stared at Man Dawei.
âThe figure I saw earlier seemed very similar to the young master of Man Family. Did he happen to stand there? It was chaotic then and why did he stand there?â
âIâm asking you, He Jingyan. What should we do?â Zuo Bo jogged on He Jingyan.
âHe might be shocked by Xu Yangyiâs disappearance! But could he be stunned like this? This is not the first time Xu Yangyi had been taken away. He should have gotten used to it by now.â
As Zuo Bo was still lost in his thoughts, He Jingyan said, âAn Yan, you take Yan Chengyu with you and go follow Ke Jie.â
âYes, sir.â
An Yan obeyed and headed out with Yan Chengyu to tail after Ke Jie.
âIâll contact Luo Sen and the others,â Long Chen said.
âAlright, tell them to prepare for battle,â He Jingyan said calmly.
âYes, sir.â
Long Chen left.
âThatâs it?â Youâre not going to look for Yangyi yourself?â Zuo Bo scratched his head and asked.
âNo need.â
He Jingyan said it as if he was not worried about Xu Yangyi getting hurt.
Zuo Bo stretched his head again, then exhaled, âFine!â
âHe was so anxious just now, but now he becomes so calm! Maybe he had figured something out?â
âNever mind. He must have his reasons for doing so.â
âI apologize for causing you trouble, Colonel He,â Man Dawei came over to apologize to He Jingyan.
He Jingyan stared grimly at him without saying anything, which made Man Dawei tremble. After all, the person standing in front of him was He Jingyan, not any ordinary person.
âWeâre partially responsible for not stopping Man Dasi at first and thereby endangering your wife,â he continued to apologize.
âI donât know whether the elder Young Master of the Man Family are acquainted with the group of people from before.â
He Jingyan suddenly changed the topic and stared grimly at Man Dawei as if he was expecting some reaction from him.
Hearing it, Man Dawei did tremble a little for a brief moment.
âHow would I know those people? What is Colonel He joking about? Or is it that Colonel He suspects it was my doing?â Man Daweiâs expression was peaceful without anger. Then he added, âI know my place and I know whom I canât associate with. Besides, what benefit will I get from conducting a murder at my own home? Needless to say it will wreck my home like this. Colonel He is a smart man and I trust that you know I wouldnât have done it since it would trigger a war between the two countries if it had not been handled properly. I couldnât afford to take the blame.â
