Chapter 503 - 513: To Take Lives-I

"Revenge?" Li Xiao Chen singled out the word, "If you are kind enough, would you explain this, Tsui Lan? I thought you were a simple actor. I am surprised that you hide yourself this well."

"People need to have to facade, second young master Li. No one knows me of course and all is paid by my hard work," answered Wei Tsui Lan tapping his finger without caring the dagger glare which Naomi threw at him. "I don't see why everyone should live like you straight and proper. Us, I mean most of us strive through crooked roads."

"And that allows you to use it as a reason to kidnapped people?" Li Xiao Chen inquired. He could tell there was reason for Wei Tsui Lan to kidnapped him. Asking the man straightforwardly wouldn't give him answers. Hence, he used the roundabout method which he was good at.

"Reason? Wrong what I want is revenge. I want the blood against the man name Li Jun Wei and the woman named Akasaka Haru," which the latter Li Xiao Chen presumed to be Naomi's older sister per her story.

"Revenge is not something good, Tsui Lan. I have done it once and all that came back to me was far from satisfaction. It was only an empty emotion that left after—"

"You are saying this because you don't know anything at all," Interrupted Wei Tsui Lan. "Have you ever seen a human that know the feeling an ant feel when their feet hover upon their body? The fear, the anger, and the hatred he held against them? You are naive, Xiao Chen. So naive that you don't understand yet the gravity of this problem and how much I hate, detest your family enough that I want to make you all stand in a line and burn you alive!"

Li Xiao Chen watched the anger that was held in Wei Tsui Lan's words. He couldn't understand where Wei Tsui Lan's anger came from. The way he spoke sounded as if he had lost someone because of Jun Wei but he doubted that was the case. 

He said, "I don't know what kind of revenge you want. As you said maybe I don't know the gravity of this situation but I can tell that my brother wouldn't hurt anyone without a reason unless they have hurt him once—"

"She was innocent!" Wei Tsui Lan rose from his chair in so much force that he threw kicked the seat behind him. "My mother and my sister was innocent. The most innocent person in this world. How dare you think you could kill people simply because you are more wealthy?!"

Li Xiao Chen never had a hand in Li Jun Wei's problem, therefore he couldn't understand it either why his brother would go against innocent people as Wei Tsui Lan had said.

Suddenly, Li Xiao Chen realized something off, "Who is it that you want to revenge against?"

They had spoken and Li Xiao Chen had seen Wei Tsui Lan anger. Something which he found strange was despite how much Wei Tsui Lan stated he wanted his brother's life, he never once said it was his brother who had killed Wei Tsui Lan's family. 

Wei Tsui Lan's anger cooled off for a simple second. "I didn't tell you yet? My target of revenge is your grandparents."

At the same time in China, Zhuang Xuan sent the doc.u.ments he found through the laptop. With the small help of the dim light inside the car, Li Lian could hear her friend's voice coming from the Bluetooth earpiece that covered only one side of her ears.

"It is as he said. I am bitter to acknowledge it but he had done it well by distracting me with his uncle and father's reputation that we couldn't dig deeper to his background. Everything had been wiped clean so it took me a little more time than expected."

Li Lian could hear Zhuang Xuan who continue to speak against her ears, however, she was too stunned with what she read that her expression turned still. 

Her head slowly lifted up to look at Li Jun Wei and there she saw the same surprise that colored his face, causing his calm eyes to turn wider. 

"His revenge was not directed to me but my grandfather," Li Jun Wei said and his hand clenched.

Back to Li Xiao Chen, Wei Tsui Lan took a seat again and spoke, "Both my father and his brother are sc.u.mbags. They want power and all they could think was it after money. I did not care about it at all. When my mother birthed me, I learned that she wasn't a Japanese like my father and uncle but a Chinese. Since then she taught me how to speak her language and you know why? Do you think you know the answer, Miss Naomi?"

Naomi didn't answer, refusing to do so as she only stared at the man while trying to stop her own anger.

"It was so we could communicate without getting my father angry. In the morning he drank alcohol and at night he brought his friend to smoke drugs. I can only watched him and hope for his death until finally God heard my prayer and that man was killed by your sister-in-law's grandfather."

On the other side, Li Lian who was in the car that was driving through the bridge in to Shanghai frowned when she saw her grandfather's name in the doc.u.ments but then the man was sc.u.m and she didn't see how wrong they are to kill him.

The matter was after Wei Tsui Lan's father's death. "Hong Tsui Lan was then brought to the institute along with his sister and mother. After deciding that Mrs. Hong unable to raise the two children, Tsui Lan was taken by his paternal uncle who then died a week after adopting him. The institution once again took Tsui Lan who then later adopted by Wei Family in China," whispered Li Lian.

Going back in the factory, Li Xiao Chen was told the similar information as Li Lian had read from the doc.u.ment. Wei Tsui Lan continued. "My new family was so different from my birth family. They raised me with care, shower me with love, and I never lacked anything; but in the end it was the feeling that different. The bond we share is different. I longed to meet my mother and sister again, the people who is truly related by blood."

And in China, Li Lian who read the doc.u.ment, upon reaching the same page as Wei Tsui Lan's explanation formed a sudden understanding with Wei Tsui Lan who went through the same situation and phase as her.

While Li Lian was happy with her life in Ryouma Clan and with the people who care her more than her birth family could ever do, there was once the empty space in her heart when she thought of how she wasn't related to her family. 

She shook her head, continuing to read the last page of the doc.u.ments where the truth was written, "Wei Tsui Lan forwarded his search to find his birth mother and he successfully found them in China three years later..." Li Lian's eyes then drawled down, reading the next paragraph, she noticed the date when Wei Tsui Lan met his mother was only one month difference before Mrs. Hong death.
