Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Yu Li’s Past

Yang Yu’s reminder instantly snapped Yu Li back to reality. Without hesitation, she hung up the phone and immediately notified her team, "Xiao Jiang, pull up all the files on the city’s gender reassignment surgeons, especially those not at home tonight!"

Yu Li acted swiftly and soon there was news.

A plastic surgeon named Wang Weimin was not at home for the evening, and his wife couldn’t reach him on the phone; he seemed to have completely vanished.

Yu Li pinpointed the last known location of the doctor’s cellphone signal, finding his shut-off phone in a trash bin.

As Yu Li was preparing for a city-wide search for Wang Weimin, a call came in from her subordinate, "Captain Yu, we’ve found the body of Dr. Wang Weimin in the Ring City River, he’s drowned."

"What?" Yu Li rushed to the scene with forensic experts, conducted an autopsy, and the preliminary determination was that he had died from excessive alcohol consumption, falling into the river and drowning.

"Impossible, this can’t be!" the grief-stricken Mrs. Wang, who came to identify the body, cried out, "My husband was allergic to alcohol and never touched a drop. How could he have died from excessive drinking?"

Watching Mrs. Wang’s tears turn her into a weeping figure, Yu Li clenched her fists tightly, her heart instantly filled with anger, "You beasts who treat human life like grass, I will bring you to justice sooner or later!"

Yang Yu wasn’t surprised at all by the results Yu Li had found.

If the behind-the-scenes mastermind could leave a survivor, that would be far too unprofessional.

Why would someone who could go to the lengths of hiring an assassin to target him spare a doctor who could potentially become a witness?

Yang Yu had no time to dwell on these thoughts. Since Grey Wolf had already sent a top-tier assassin and had failed once, the people around him were now in even greater danger.

He needed to think of a way to protect them fully!

For such an important matter, Yang Yu would definitely consult with Shen Silin, since she could also become a target of the assassin.

Watching Yang Yu’s worried expression, Shen Silin smiled and said, "Are you scared now? Actually, guarding against an assassin only treats the symptoms, not the cause. Even if you eliminate this assassin, there will be others who take up the contract. You can’t possibly take out every assassin, can you?"

"The best way is to take out the person hiring the assassins behind the scenes—I understand that too," Yang Yu said, shaking his head helplessly, "but I just can’t do that for now!"

"That’s why I’ve been hiding here," Shen Silin explained. "I don’t go out; I only have business connections, no circle of friends. So, I just need to ensure the safety of my mom and my sister."

"But you’re too sentimental. Besides your family, you have Zhou Haoqiang and your secretary. Who knows, maybe the enemy will target your class beauty next."

"Being sentimental is a good thing, but sometimes it can become an obstacle on your path to achieving greatness. If one day someone were to threaten you with my life, remember, don’t worry about me."

"Of course, in the same situation, I wouldn’t worry about you either."

Yang Yu looked seriously at Shen Silin, "I might not exchange my life for other women, but for you, I will take full responsibility. If I can’t even protect my own woman, what kind of man would I be?"

"My own woman?" Shen Silin chuckled teasingly, "When did I become your woman? I only agreed that it might be possible in five years, not now."

"No matter what you think, that’s how I see it," Yang Yu said with a resolute gaze. "You don’t need to worry about what I’m going to do; just think that I’m longing for your body."

"You’re such a cute man," Shen Silin said, walking up to Yang Yu and slowly bringing her face closer.

As Shen Silin’s red lips slowly approached and a sweet fragrance filled the air, Yang Yu’s heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably, instinctively leaning his face closer to hers.

Just as their lips were about to touch, Yang Yu’s phone vibrated inopportunely once more.

Shen Silin immediately turned her face away, and Yang Yu’s face darkened with anger.

He picked up his phone, wanting to see who was such a killjoy, only to find it was Yu Li again.

"Why call if there’s nothing important? It’s infuriating!" Yang Yu grumbled, but he had no choice but to answer, "Captain Yu, what’s up?"

"I’m off work now, at your clubhouse. Come drink with me," Yu Li said.

Yang Yu casually lied, "Captain Yu, I’ve already gone home."

"Don’t bother, I know you’re in Selin’s room," Yu Li snorted. "If you don’t come down, I’m coming up to find you."

"Alright, alright, you win!" Yang Yu ended the call, feeling extremely helpless, "Mr. Shen, I’m heading down."

"Okay," Shen Silin smiled. "By the way, I don’t like you touching other women, but if you can win over Yu Li, I wouldn’t mind at all."

Yang Yu: "..."

Yang Yu arrived at Yu Li’s private room, where Yu Li had already downed several bottles of alcohol.

Seeing Yang Yu sit down, Yu Li placed a bottle of beer in front of him: "Come on, drink up!"

Yang Yu glanced at Yu Li, his brows slightly furrowed: "Aren’t you police officers not supposed to drink casually?"

"I’ve taken annual leave, I can drink all I want tonight," Yu Li glared at Yang Yu fiercely, "I told you to drink, what’s with the fuss? Come on, drink!"

Yang Yu had no choice but to accompany Yu Li in drinking.

Yu Li didn’t say much more, just drank bottle after bottle.

Yang Yu initially thought Yu Li would get drunk, but instead, she seemed to become more lucid with each drink.

After who knows how many, Yu Li finally began to speak slowly, "Do you know why I became a police officer?"

Yang Yu offhandedly replied, "You lost your father at a young age, and your current father isn’t your biological one."

"What?" Yu Li looked up, shocked, "You’ve investigated me?"

"I just read it from your face," Yang Yu waved his hand dismissively. "You think I have the guts to investigate you? Even if I had the guts, do you think I would need to?"

Yu Li fell silent for a moment, then spoke slowly, "When I was eight years old, my dad also drowned in a river after getting drunk. My mom cried a lot, but in the blink of an eye, she remarried my stepfather and even changed my surname to Yu. Actually, I’m not really a Yu Family member."

Yang Yu finally understood the evening’s events had struck a nerve with Yu Li, and he tried to comfort her, "Captain Yu, the deceased are gone, and after so many years, what matters most is living your own life well."

"I can’t forget my dad, how gentle and kind he was." Yu Li’s eyes filled with memories at the mention of her father, "I just can’t believe that he would get drunk alone and drown in the river."

"I became a police officer to uncover the truth about what happened back then. I suspect that my current stepfather is the one who killed my dad!"

"Too much time has passed, all evidence is gone," Yang Yu shook his head. "Even if that man admits he killed your dad, what can you do about it?"

"Of course, seek revenge for my dad!" A fierce look flickered in Yu Li’s eyes, "Even if it means an eye for an eye, I will seek justice for my dad!"
