350 Qiao Jing’s Secret
Two days later, Linlin passed away.
Qiao Yue watched as the girl’s small coffin was lowered into the grave and then buried in soil mixed with flowers.
Tears rolled down Qiao Yue’s cheeks.
She would never see this adorable girl again.
Qiao Jing stood at the side, holding a black umbrella as he placed a bunch of sunflowers on the tombstone.
The group of people walked out of the cemetery.
The team from The Custodians were also there. They were all wearing black clothes and holding black umbrellas.
When they reached the entrance of the cemetery, there were already more than a dozen Lincoln stretch limousines waiting for them.
Qiao Yue was a little surprised and asked Qiao Jing, “Aren’t we going back to Hanshan City?”
“No. We are going to straight to the Yin residence.”
Qiao Yue turned around and nodded at Su Xun. “Colonel Su, we won’t be going back to Hanshan City. Let’s meet again when we have the chance.”
Su Xun nodded. Just as he was about to leave with his team, someone stopped him.
“You must be Mr. Su Xun. The head of the Yin family would like to meet you.”
The master of the Yin family?
Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Jing. Why would Yin He want to meet Su Xun?
Su Xun’s eyes turned sharp in an instant.
“I don’t know the master of Yin family. I don’t want to meet him either.” Su Xun’s voice sounded as if it had been soaked in ice water.
Qiao Yue had never seen Su Xun speak like that.
“What Master Yin means is that after so many years, you should go back and accept everything that you should accept. At least, you should let the people who should know the truth know the truth. Don’t you think so?”
Su Xun’s eyes swept over Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing, and a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
“I won’t say anything. I’ll follow you back to meet Master Yin.”
Su Xun walked to the car behind them and got into it expressionlessly.
Ai Ye was a little surprised. Su Xun would never change his plans when they were on a mission. Why did he change his plans because of a small Yin family?
“Team!”
“Captain!”
Su Xun rolled down the window and threw his communicator to Ai Ye.
“Ai Ye, you are now the temporary leader of the team. Bring Team 1 back and I’ll be back in two months.”
“The team…” Ai Ye was a little hesitant. “Our mission…”
“Mission as usual. This is an order!” Su Xun’s tone was very strict. He was probably in the army before as this tone was usually a soldier’s.
“It’s time for me to pay off some of the debts that I’ve owed for more than 20 years.”
Su Xun looked at his team members and revealed a gentle smile.
Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing got into the car in front.
The cars slowly drove out of Hanshan City towards S-City.
S-City was the capital of K-Country. It was much livelier than Hanshan City. The shining neon lights, roads and high-rise buildings of S-City were visible from the top of the mountain.
“Just what kind of cooperation does the Yin family have with us?” Qiao Yue turned to ask Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing remained silent.
“Brother, I’ve seen Yin He before. He looks like me, doesn’t he?” Qiao Yue said slowly.
Qiao Jing looked at Qiao Yue in surprise, “How did you…”
“I’m not stupid. I’ve checked. Yin He didn’t use to look like he does now. He’s from a prominent family in J-Country, right?” Qiao Yue’s voice was low as she continued, “In order to secure his position in the Yin family, he had plastic surgery based on a photo of the original Yin family master, right?”
“Yes.” Qiao Jing nodded.
“So, I’m actually a member of the Yin family, right?”
Qiao Jing didn’t say anything and only sighed softly.
“You know about my background, don’t you, brother?” Qiao Yue turned to look at Qiao Jing. “I just realized that this was a trap set by you and the Yin family. The goal was to lure out The Custodians and me.”
Qiao Jing nodded.
“Second brother, why did you do all this? Is it just so the Yin family and I would acknowledge each other?”
“You’ll find out when you get there.” Qiao Jing replied coldly.
The atmosphere in the car turned cold.
Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Jing’s cold profile and suddenly didn’t know what to say.
What else could she say? She thought that she could trust Qiao Jing but he hid this Yin family secret from her.
When she caught No. 789, she had already investigated. No. 789’s appearance and the tragedy in Hanshan City were all deliberately made known to her.
And this person was none other than Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing had promised her that he would not lie to her, but what was he doing now?
