Yan Meng killed Yuan Yaxin, and the police have launched a nationwide search for him.
Interpol also exposed Yan Meng's identity as "Mr." and issued a dual wanted notice both domestically and internationally, aiming to bring Yan Meng to justice.
Such a major event naturally caused a sensation in the capital and was reported in the news, especially since Yan Meng had been hiding for so long as the owner of Bailu Clothing.
Because of Yan Meng's disappearance, Bailu Clothing is now in chaos.
I was watching the news at home, thinking back to the time I met Yan Meng until now. He always had ulterior motives when approaching me.
At this time, Mingsi hurriedly ran out of the room and asked me for confirmation with his mobile phone.
"Xiao Shan, what's going on? How did Yan Meng become a wanted criminal? Do you know what's going on?"
I suddenly stopped and didn't know where to start talking to Mingsi.
Just at this moment, the landline at home rang. It was a call from the Ming family's old house.
I prevaricated and said, "I'll take a call first."
As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard Mrs. Ming anxiously asking, "Xiao Shan, have you seen the news about Yan Meng? Is there some misunderstanding here? How could he be a wanted criminal?"
The two elders of the Ming family obviously trust Yan Meng more and are unwilling to believe that he would do anything illegal.
"Grandma, I... Yan Meng..."
I was hesitating and didn't know how to explain when Mingyuan picked up the phone.
He calmly comforted the Ming family elders: "Mom and Dad, the police are still investigating this matter. The police will reveal the truth and will never wrongly accuse a good person..."
I was at a loss and quietly stepped aside, but I accidentally saw Che Xiaofeng hiding behind the stairs.
He looked at us timidly, his eyes full of anxiety.
I guess he also saw the news about Yan Meng and was probably scared.
I walked over and tried to comfort him.
Before he could finish his words, Che Xiaofeng's eyes turned red.
He asked me, "Sister, will my father never come to the capital?"
He pretended to be calm and tested it cautiously with hope.
I bit my lower lip and looked into his sincere eyes. I didn't want to lie to him, but I also didn't have the heart to tell him the truth.
My silence instead made Che Xiaofeng force a bitter smile.
He murmured, "I knew it... You didn't come back last night, and Uncle Mingyuan was very worried. Today, Brother Yan Meng became a wanted criminal and even killed someone. My father said he would come to the capital, but suddenly he didn't show up. He actually couldn't come, right?"
My heart ached like a needle: "Xiao Feng..."
Che Xiaofeng is already a junior high school student. He has sensitively noticed all of this, and I can't hide it from him even if I want to.
He must have guessed the answer.
Che Xiaofeng stared at me with burning eyes, confirming with me: "Sister, is something wrong with my dad?"
I lowered my eyes, unable to bear to see his expression, and nodded gently.
Tears suddenly welled up in Che Xiaofeng's eyes. He sniffed hard to restrain himself from crying. His pretending to be strong made people feel even more distressed.
He asked me in a trembling voice, "Sister, where is my father? Can I go see my father for the last time?"
I pursed my lips, my heart aching.
Che Chi was thrown into the sea by Yan Meng's men on the boat. There has been no news since then. I'm afraid...
No trace of the body is left.
But how can I tell this poor child this cruel truth?
Abandoned by his mother at a young age, he now has lost his only father who loved him...
