Chapter 195 Does He Like You?
"Back then, children like me were sold to Rose Island. We were all bought by the Grant Family in the Golden Triangle. The entire Rose Island is a huge training camp, built specifically to train Deadpool assassins and personal bodyguards."
I just received a call from Moros. He also saw the bombing of the Northern Continent Arsenal and was heading to the Srilan Hotel with Lanze.
Ning Yan explained to Yu Li in the passenger seat while driving to the Sri Lanka Hotel.
Yu Li was doing two things at once. While listening to him, she also had enough time to send a message to Gu Chenyu, lying to him that she was going with Shi Ying to visit the Northern Continent Mercenary Group and would be back later.
After calming Gu Chenyu down, Yu Li turned around and asked with a frown, "Moros, like you, came from Rose Island? But he's not only the young master of the Tan family, he's also the legitimate eldest son of the Tan family. How could he be sold to Rose Island like you?"
"I don't know, but I calculated the time. At that time, his father, Tan Zhui, was competing with several uncles and brothers for the position of heir. It's not impossible that Moros, as the only child born to the eldest son, was sold by those uncles to confuse his father."
Yu Li thought about what he said and nodded in agreement. It was indeed possible.
Then he asked, "What about the guy on the phone just now? Why did he call you K? Isn't that K the one Sister Ying has been catching recently? Why did he call you K?"
Ning Yan asked him in return: "Third Young Master, do you know why the Grant family built such a large training camp?"
Yu Li frowned and guessed, "You just said it was to train Deadpool assassins and bodyguards. This kind of thing is usually about vying for power and profit. During my time in the Northern Continent, I read a lot of historical records of Africa and Continent M. Continent M was the most chaotic at that time."
"That's right," Ning Yan said. "It was much more chaotic than it is now. The underground city was like a living hell. There was no law, no order, and no human rights at all. It was like a large slave market for the nobles of the Golden Triangle to choose from."
"If that's the case, then why did the Grant family build a training camp?" Yu Li thought, stroking his chin. "Shouldn't the people in the underground city do this to rebel?"
"Because the person in charge of the Grant family at the time had roughly guessed the direction of Continent M over the next decade or so. He knew the underground city would rebel, and he also knew that the Golden Triangle nobles were just a bunch of pampered wastes, so he had to make early plans for his descendants."
Yu Li thought for a moment and nodded in praise: "It seems that he really has foresight."
There was a red light ahead, so Ning Yan stopped the car and got stuck in the crowded traffic.
The red light countdown was still tens of seconds away. He placed one hand on the steering wheel and reached out the window with the other to flick the ash. He nodded and said, "Yes, his other nobles are much more far-sighted."
"But what does this have to do with the K you mentioned?"
"The person in charge of the Grant family has a two-year-old child named Xiaoyan."
Yu Li was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at him, stared at the expression on his face for a few seconds, and concluded: "It seems that you two have a very good relationship."
"Well, there were thousands of children in training on the entire island, and he liked me the most." Ning Yan looked ahead with a gentle look in his eyes, as if reminiscing, and said softly, "Back then, I often took Moros to sneak into the rose garden to see him. Moros didn't like children, so when I teased Xiaoyan, he would lean over and roll his eyes."
After a pause, Ning Yan smiled and sighed helplessly: "Xiaoyan is obviously very beautiful and well-behaved, and she feels soft in my arms. At first, I couldn't understand why he didn't like her. Later, I found out that he was just being stubborn and actually liked her very much."
"Did you sneak in?"
"Well, that rose garden is guarded by special people. Children like us who were bought are not allowed to get close to it. Only those who pass the levels of selection are allowed to enter the rose garden and serve as Xiaoyan's personal protection in the future."
Ning Yan suddenly remembered something, and his smile gradually faded. He said, "At that time, I had just met K not long ago. He didn't like Xiaoyan. Unlike Moros, he really didn't like her."
Yu Li pieced together what he had said today and what he had said before. Finally, he widened his eyes slightly and asked in shock, "So you killed K because of Xiaoyan?"
"Um."
"K killed Xiaoyan?"
"Yes, his purpose for coming to the island was to kill people."
"So that's why you killed him?"
"Yes."
Yu Li thought about it and couldn't help but feel a little horrified: "You didn't kill him, and now he's coming back to seek revenge on you?"
Ning Yan nodded and sighed slowly: "I guess so."
Yu Li still didn't understand: "But why did he call you K on the phone just now?"
The red light ended and Ning Yan started the car.
He steered the car, constantly changing speed and direction in the traffic, and brushed past the rear of other cars several times.
Outside the window, loud speakers and curses blared. He climbed up to the window and said to Yu Li calmly, "Back when I was on Rose Island, my instructor thought I was a girl and favored me, teaching me everything he had learned. Later, I met K. He's very smart, very smart, so when I have free time, I teach him everything I've learned."
"Including your disguise skills?" Yu Li asked.
"Yeah, there's also the voice-changing method. He learned it better than me."
"..." Yu Li figured it out and couldn't help but gasp in amazement. "That's terrifying! Aren't there very few people who've learned this from you? He knows all this, so he's deliberately trying to scare you this way?"
"I suspect he wants to discredit me."
Yu Li was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood and frowned: "And then you were ruined and abandoned by everyone, and he was your only support?"
Ning Yan had a blank expression on his face: "Yes, he would try every possible way to make me bow my head and admit to him that I was wrong and that I shouldn't have abandoned him."
Yu Li didn't want to think about it that way, but still couldn't help asking, "Does he like you?"
“…Maybe.”
"Will he kill my brother?"
"I think it's more likely that I'll kill you and Shi Ming." Ning Yan said.
After hearing what he said, Yu Li began to worry again. Looking at the calls that had been made but not answered, he asked, "Will he attack Shi Ming?"
Ning Yan was silent for a moment, then nodded: "It's very likely. When I took Shi Ming around before, it caused quite a stir, so he must have known about it."
Yu Li also fell silent.
An hour later, we arrived at the agreed Sri Lanka hotel.
After parking the car and before he could go in, someone came out of the door, stopped on the steps at the door, and looked at him quietly with his eyes lowered.
After Ning Yan saw the other person's face clearly, he was stunned, frowned, and said nothing.
Yu Li walked up to him with one hand in his pocket, glanced at the man standing at the door, then looked at Ning Yan who seemed unhappy, and asked, "Do you know him?"
Ning Yan explained: "The current person in charge of the Cheng family is Cheng Zhengze."
