Chapter 192 The Zeng Family’s Sins
Zeng Yichen seemed to have been struck by lightning and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Zeng Yan saw this and didn't say much. He just silently picked up the information on the ground, put it back into the sealed bag, and placed it in front of Zeng Yichen.
Seeing Zeng Yichen's pale face, he felt a little pity in his heart, but he was powerless to do anything.
After all, he would know the truth sooner or later.
Instead of waiting for the day when the Zeng family is completely defeated and then dealing him a heavy blow, at least now... I can still live and call him brother.
The document came into Zeng Yichen's sight again. Even though it was wrapped with a sealing line, it still made him shrink back in fear.
Zeng Yan finally reached out and patted Zeng Yichen on the head, just like he usually did.
"...Brother," Zeng Yichen's voice was very weak and trembling: "These...are..."
Zeng Yan heard him ask, so he stopped being silent: "It's the Zeng family's sin."
Zeng Yichen closed his eyes as if escaping from reality.
This man, who looked exactly like that man, actually died in such a horrific way...
If this is really that man's father, and his own father is the culprit...
Zeng Yan continued, "Commander Qi was a truly wise ruler. He didn't deserve this fate. I protected my father and covered up his sins, so I should atone for them."
Hearing this, Zeng Yichen raised his head and looked at Zeng Yan uneasily, "Brother..."
Zeng Yan smiled. This was the first time Zeng Yichen saw the purest and most relaxed smile on his face.
"Don't worry about me, worry about yourself. Remember my words, pretend that you know nothing in front of your father." Zeng Yan reminded again.
Zeng Yichen's mind slowly came to its senses now, "No... atonement means... Brother, do you want to expose the evidence of father's crimes?"
Zeng Yan took a deep breath. He had never felt that life could be so open and bright. "Well, don't you think it's wrong?"
Zeng Yichen was stunned. He lowered his head again in guilt and clenched his fists. "It's my fault."
Zeng Yan was stunned when he heard this answer. "If that's the case, the Zeng family will be defeated. In the future..."
He could no longer live as a young master of a warlord family, and even had to bear the stigma.
Zeng Yan didn't have the heart to say the rest of the words. He looked at Zeng Yichen with a guilty look again.
Zeng Yichen understood it all, but when he thought about the suffering that heinous crime had brought to the victims, wasn't his carefree and well-fed upbringing built on the bloodshed?
"I am also a member of the Zeng family. I have enjoyed the benefits of the Zeng family... and I should also bear the consequences." Zeng Yichen answered weakly but firmly.
Zeng Yan's heart was in turmoil, but he finally smiled with relief. His younger brother was really different from him. His younger brother was really such an upright person, so he deserved everyone's love.
"But why should this thing be given to Ji Baobei?" Zeng Yichen suddenly asked again, "She is just an ordinary girl... Giving this thing to her will bring her huge risks!"
Zeng Yan pursed his lips, not knowing how to describe his speculation, "So I said, if anything happens to me, I'll hand it over to her."
He would first try to find a way to report this to the chief himself, but his military rank did not allow him to meet the chief directly, and other avenues would inevitably go through Zeng Nian.
Therefore, the probability of him losing his life by doing this is much greater than the probability of success.
If he fails, he can only rely on the power behind that girl.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Zeng Yichen stood up immediately after hearing that, grabbed Zeng Yan's shoulders and shook him, "Now that I know you want to do something just, I will definitely stand by you and do it with you. Nothing will happen to you! Brother! I won't let anything happen to you!!"
Zeng Yan looked at his excited yet innocent appearance and shook his head helplessly. "Take this thing and store it in a safe place first, and leave here as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he pushed Zeng Yichen's hand away and wanted to sit down and rest for a while. He really felt like he was running out of energy.
"Brother!" Zeng Yichen shouted unwillingly, glancing at the bag of disgusting things on the coffee table, "I won't give this to baby Ji! I can't bring her any risks!"
It's not just a risk. If she saw someone who looked exactly like the man she loved being brutally tortured to death, and if that man saw someone who might be his father...
Hearing this, Zeng Yan turned around a little tiredly, wanting to persuade him again, but he only heard Zeng Yichen ask again: "Does Commander Qi have children?"
Zeng Yan was stunned again. He had not expected Zeng Yichen to ask such a question. He shook his head and said, "Commander Qi was only 23 years old when he left."
The only possibility was also denied, and Zeng Yichen was completely confused, "23 years old..."
Although that man has an extraordinary temperament, judging from his appearance, he should be around the same age... How could it be such a coincidence?
Zeng Yan saw Zeng Yichen frowning and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Brother... are there really people in the world who look exactly the same?" Zeng Yichen murmured, "Not only are their faces identical, they're about the same age, and even their auras are exactly the same."
Hearing this, Zeng Yan seemed to have thought of something, and his nerves suddenly tensed up: "You mean, have you seen someone who looks exactly like Commander Qi?"
Zeng Yichen came back to his senses instantly, realizing that he seemed to have let something slip, and panicked: "Ah...that..."
Zeng Yan felt a little disappointed when he saw him being on guard, but he was also calm.
After all, he was Zeng Nian's knife before, and he did a lot of evil things.
But seeing Zeng Yichen's expression, he knew that he was right, so he continued, "That person should be related to Professor Ji."
Zeng Yichen's eyes widened. "You..." How did you know? ?
Seeing his reaction, Zeng Yan knew that he was right again, "That's why I asked you to give the things to her."
Zeng Yichen asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
"The man behind her looks exactly like Commander Qi. Don't you understand yet?" Zeng Yan said helplessly.
"They look the same..." Zeng Yichen still looked confused.
"I sent people to hunt down Professor Ji." Zeng Yan suddenly confessed.
Hearing this, Zeng Yichen subconsciously bit his lower lip and looked at Zeng Yan with resentment.
Although he had known this for a long time, he was still very angry when he heard his brother admit it himself.
Zeng Yan didn't care and continued, "She was forced to use the HYP machine to erase her memory because she found evidence of excessive use of chemicals in the military camp. Later, they ordered her to be hunted down to completely eliminate the hidden danger."
Zeng Yichen became angrier the more he listened. The military camp where he had stayed for several years turned out to be such a dirty and shabby place!
"But we failed in every hunt. Even the S-level killers we trained were thrown back in a miserable state of death. Do you think Ji Ran, a girl alone, can do it?" Zeng Yan continued.
