Chapter 97 The Second Person
"What did you remember?" Xu Qingyan asked, her heart pounding with anticipation.
For some reason, ever since Xu Qiang mentioned that man, he couldn't stop caring about him...
"I think I remember what that person looks like!" Xu Qiang said excitedly.
"What does he look like?!" Xu Qingyan asked excitedly.
"I can't remember exactly what you looked like, but I just saw your face..."
"I think I remember now, that person had a scar on his chin!" Xu Qiang said, pointing to the right side of his chin.
"What?! Dad! I'm not kidding, but there are tons of people with scars on their chins... you could find plenty even in our village!"
"What kind of clue is this..." Xu Qingyan shook his head in disappointment...
"Hey! This is a crucial clue! Why do you think I suddenly remembered that he has a scar?"
"His scar is so long, it looks like a centipede, and it's even black!" Xu Qiang exaggeratedly gestured with his hand to show the length of the scar.
"Really?" Xu Qingyan asked with some doubt.
“Yes! I’m sure!” Xu Qiang said confidently. “Anyway, if you ever have the chance to meet him, you’ll know I’m telling the truth.”
Xu Qingyan shook his head somewhat unwillingly, "It's not that easy, Dad, you've been dealing with them for so many years..."
Even you only saw him once, and never heard from him again...
How could I possibly encounter someone so easily…
Xu Qiang waved his hand dismissively, "I was just giving an example!"
Anyway, that person has a very peculiar aura. When you one day encounter an old man with a black scar on his chin, who's very short, but gives you a very unsettling feeling, you'll know who he is!
Xu Qingyan didn't take Xu Qiang's words to heart. Ignoring his own discomfort, he continued to ask, "So, you only started contacting each other after the study incident?"
"Yes, quite some time passed after that incident in the study, probably about a year..."
At that time, I was already feeling very uncomfortable because of what happened with Ye Jun, and that's when I received a letter from Bai Yu..."
"What did the letter say?" Xu Qingyan pressed.
"He seemed to know who I was, and he also knew that I understood who he was."
He got straight to the point, stating his identity and then asked to meet with me to discuss something…
"Did you talk to him?"
“We talked… He was living in the county town at the time, and then he called me to a place…” Xu Qiang recalled.
"Where? What did you talk about?" Xu Qingyan was very dissatisfied with Xu Qiang's behavior of stopping mid-sentence, but he didn't dare to say anything, afraid that if he angered Xu Qiang, he would stop talking.
"That's an old house in the east of the city, near the moat. Inside..."
"There's actually a woman waiting for me..." Xu Qiang's face still looked dazed as he recalled the memory...
"who is she?!"
"She is Bai Yu's mother, and her surname is also Bai..." Even now, when Xu Qiang recalls that woman's every move, he still can't help but feel a chill in his heart...
"What's her name? What does she look like?" Xu Qingyan was also very interested in this woman.
"Her name is Baiyun. Although she was already quite old when I met her, she still looked very energetic." Xu Qiang clicked his tongue in amazement.
