Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Revenge for Personal Grudges
Li Bo sat on the chair, his face deathly pale.
He glanced at Duoduo, who was crouching at the kitchen doorway, watching her mother cook. He took a deep breath, wanting to speak, but then realized that his chest felt so blocked that he couldn’t get a word out.
Seeing his expression, Lin Jianming could easily guess what was on his mind.
"Do you have a cigarette? Give me one." Lin Jianming said.
Li Bo took out a cigarette and handed one to Lin Jianming, who reached out to take it, only to find his hand shaking violently.
Li Bo also drew a cigarette for himself, put it in his mouth, and took out a lighter, about to light it.
Just then, Lin Jianming turned to look at Duoduo and seemed to think of something. Silently, he placed the cigarette beside him.
"Forget it."
Li Bo also came to his senses and set the lighter aside with the unlit cigarette still in his mouth.
"All these years, has there really been no news from Wei Fuzhong?" A flash of ferocity crossed Li Bo’s eyes.
He feared he would never sleep peacefully again if he didn’t avenge this feud.
Wei Fuzhong was the one who abducted and killed Duoduo. His brother, Wei Fuyi, and he committed several major crimes. During the police crackdown, Wei Fuyi was shot dead by Lin Jianming, which started the feud.
"I had someone look into it before. He first went to Hong Kong, then from Hong Kong to Japan, stayed there for a few years, and then went to Germany. After that, his tracks went cold..." Lin Jianming said.
"Did he get married? Does he have a family?" Li Bo asked.
"Not sure, but he had a woman in Japan, seems she bore him a son." Lin Jianming said.
"That’s good... That’s good..." A cruel smile appeared on Li Bo’s face.
"Every debt has its debtor; I really didn’t want it to come to this," Lin Jianming said.
He had known for a long time about Wei Fuzhong’s woman and child in Japan, but he had never considered revenge, as he did not want to involve the innocent.
Li Bo said nothing, making no comment on his father’s actions.
After all, he had a military background and had been a policeman for many years, serving to protect the citizens, not to kill the innocent indiscriminately.
But he was different; he was just a businessman, not so righteous.
However, what happened to Duoduo had thoroughly enraged Lin Jianming.
"Don’t get involved personally, just spend more money," he said as if it drained all his strength.
Li Bo nodded. As long as one was willing to spend money, there were plenty of people willing to do the deed.
The two of them remained silent for a long time before Lin Jianming spoke again: "Book a ticket. Tomorrow you’ll come with us to Bin Hai to bring Duoduo’s remains back."
"Should we contact someone in Qionghai?" Li Bo asked.
Lin Jiaming had left the police force but had spent many years in Bin Hai, making many friends and subordinates still there.
"No need. Let’s not trouble others with our family’s affairs," Lin Jianming said.
Since they had decided to take revenge privately, there was no need to alert the police, which might bring unnecessary trouble.
"Okay, then. I’ll have a word with Jiayan," Li Bo said.
"Just tell your wife you’re accompanying us to Bin Hai. Duoduo’s matter, there’s no need to tell her yet."
Hearing this, Li Bo was initially perplexed, but after some thought, he understood Lin Jianming’s intention.
"And this Mr. Shen, what’s his background? Is he as powerful as you say?"
"Capable of commanding ghosts and gods, what do you think? He seems like a man of virtue, but..." Lin Jianming trailed off, but Li Bo understood his meaning.
Li Bo turned his head to look at Duoduo, only to see her on her tiptoes, clutching the edge of the table, and hungrily eyeing a dish Song Qingwei had cooked.
"It’s hard to say whether meeting Mr. Shen is good or bad."
Lin Jianming also turned to look at Duoduo, then remembered the origin of that umbrella, feeling as if their fate had been orchestrated.
If that was truly the case, it would be terrifying, but he was just an ordinary citizen. Regardless of wealth or connections, it would all be of no use.
"I will have someone check into Mr. Shen’s background; you don’t get involved," Lin Jianming said.
...
"Oh, Daddy, Bo Bo, Mommy says it’s time to eat..." Duoduo ran over excitedly.
Although Duoduo couldn’t eat, the others still had to. Therefore, Song Qingwei still made lunch as originally planned.
"You should call him brother," Li Bo stood up and patted her little head.
Duoduo shook her head vigorously, refusing to let him touch her.
"I’ll call, I’ll call..." she stubbornly said.
"Okay, okay, enough fooling around. Come and eat," Song Qingwei brought over the last dish.
Li Bo walked over, picked up his chopsticks, ready to grab some food from the table.
Seeing this, Duoduo immediately shouted, "Mommy, mommy, look! Bo Bo isn’t washing his hands before eating, you should spank him!"
Song Qingwei burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"He’s grown up, mommy can’t control him anymore."
"Why not?" Duoduo was somewhat puzzled.
"Because once you’re grown up, your wings are strong, and you don’t listen anymore," Song Qingwei explained.
Duoduo grabbed Song Qingwei’s hand and looked up, "Mommy, don’t be sad. When I grow up, I’ll always listen to you."
Hearing this, Song Qingwei felt a sourness in the corner of her eyes.
Li Bo, who had been somewhat smug and wanting to tease Duoduo, silently put down his chopsticks and went to wash his hands.
"Can I drink some alcohol?" Lin Jianming blinked and asked Song Qingwei.
Song Qingwei sniffed, forcing a smile, "Today Duoduo is back, it’s a happy occasion. Go ahead and have some."
Then she took the initiative to get the alcohol for Lin Jianming.
"I’ll get it... I’ll get it..." Duoduo followed happily.
In a short while, she came out of the room holding a bottle of alcohol.
"Daddy, shall I pour you some wine?" Duoduo asked.
"Of course, you can."
"Pour me a glass too," Li Bo said after having washed his hands and returned.
Duoduo’s eyes widened in shock at Li Bo.
"Bo Bo, how can you drink alcohol?"
"Why can’t I? I’m an adult now, not a little kid anymore."
Duoduo stared at Li Bo, took a deep sigh, and felt a profound sense of loneliness again.
Bo Bo was no longer the Bo Bo of her memories, no longer the Bo Bo who would play and get into mischief with her. He was an adult who could drink alcohol now.
"What’s the matter?"
Lin Jianming gave Li Bo a severe look and quickly pulled her into his arms.
"I miss Sister Xiao Yue and Dou Dou," Duoduo said.
Although she had known Yin Xingyue and Dou Dou for only a short time, it was undoubtedly the happiest time for her.
Hearing this, Lin Jianming clenched his teeth, "Then after dinner, you go play with them."
Duoduo nodded immediately at his words.
Song Qingwei, on the other hand, felt very uneasy.
"Do you know how to find them? What if you get lost on the way?"
Duoduo stared at her in surprise, as if she had said something bizarre.
"Mommy, how could I get lost? As long as I think about brother in my heart, I know where he is."
Lin Jianming and Song Qingwei fell silent upon hearing this.
Li Bo, trying to lighten the mood, said, "Hey, besides me, you have another brother? Do you love me the most, or do you love him?"
Duoduo looked at him sideways.
"Bo Bo, how could you compare to Banner Master brother?"
What was originally a joke now really made his heart feel uncomfortable.
