The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

696. A Complicated Matter

Translator: Irisjo

“I hate to have a younger brother like him who is constantly causing us trouble. Aren’t you afraid that one day he will got us all killed?”

Man Dawei seemed to speak earnestly; but in fact, he was wild with joy inside.

“That’s right, but he’s your brother!”

At this moment, Man Dali couldn’t see through his eldest son and had no clue what he was thinking.

“Man Dasi?” Ke Jie gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted Man Dasi’s name, “That damn bastard.”

He shook off Man Dali’s hand, then hurriedly walked outside of the courtyard. It was unknown where he was going, but he still held the gun in his hand.

“It looks like there’s something more behind it,” Zuo Bo lit a cigarette, puffed out a mouthful of smoke, then said.

‘Judging from Ke Jie’s expression, he must be acquainted with Man Dasi and that they know each other very well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have run away after hearing Man Dasi’s name.’

“What should we do now? Should we catch up with Ke Jie? He seems to know where Man Dasi is,” Zuo Bo put out his cigarette and asked He Jingyan.

He Jingyan didn’t say anything but he scowled and stared at Man Dawei.

‘The 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?’

“I’m asking you, He Jingyan. What should we do?” Zuo Bo jogged on He Jingyan.

‘He might be shocked by Xu Yangyi’s 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.’

As Zuo Bo was still lost in his thoughts, He Jingyan said, “An Yan, you take Yan Chengyu with you and go follow Ke Jie.”

“Yes, sir.”

An Yan obeyed and headed out with Yan Chengyu to tail after Ke Jie.

“I’ll contact Luo Sen and the others,” Long Chen said.

“Alright, tell them to prepare for battle,” He Jingyan said calmly.

“Yes, sir.”

Long Chen left.

“That’s it?” You’re not going to look for Yangyi yourself?” Zuo Bo scratched his head and asked.

“No need.”

He Jingyan said it as if he was not worried about Xu Yangyi getting hurt.

Zuo Bo stretched his head again, then exhaled, “Fine!”

‘He was so anxious just now, but now he becomes so calm! Maybe he had figured something out?’

‘Never mind. He must have his reasons for doing so.’

“I apologize for causing you trouble, Colonel He,” 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.

“We’re partially responsible for not stopping Man Dasi at first and thereby endangering your wife,” he continued to apologize.

“I don’t know whether the elder Young Master of the Man Family are acquainted with the group of people from before.”

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.

“How would I know those people? What is Colonel He joking about? Or is it that Colonel He suspects it was my doing?” Man Dawei’s expression was peaceful without anger. Then he added, “I know my place and I know whom I can’t 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 wouldn’t have done it since it would trigger a war between the two countries if it had not been handled properly. I couldn’t afford to take the blame.”
