Kerry Ye nodded solemnly, “I see.” However, Kevin Ye still looking worried, so he comforted him, “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Don’t you trust your brother?”
“Of course I believe you. I’m just afraid that they’ve set a trap for you.”
Kerry raised his eyebrows, “Hmph! No matter what they do, they can never catch me.”
Kevin was speechless. He could never have such boldness of his brother.
“Kevin, in case I…”
“Stop.” Kevin interrupted him and says menacingly, “You will come back, or I won’t forgive you!”
Kerry was stunned for a moment and laughed heartily. His brother usually seemed gentle, but he was like a leopard when he got angry.
“Okay, I promise you, I’ll come back.”
Kevin calmed down for a moment and asked him, “When?” “Two o’clock in the afternoon.”
Kevin looked at the clock, less than four hours left, “Where is it?”
Kerry raised his chin and smiled, “Well, don’t ask any more. I know what you’re doing. I will go alone, for I’m afraid that guy will run away again.”
Kevin snorted, keeping reading without saying anything.
When Kerry saw this, he knew that he was angry, but this anger, Kerry felt very warm.
At this time, Venus came in and said to Kerry, “You asked John to give me a car. I want to go now.”
“What’s the hurry? Eat lunch before you go.” Kerry rudely refused.
Venus was dissatisfied with his decision, “But I still have to do some shopping, otherwise the time will not be enough.”
Kevin was confused. Where was she going?
“I said after lunch.” Seeing her tears was about to come out, Kerry made a compromise, “I’ll give you the whole afternoon. Is that enough?”
“Really?” Venus asked in surprise.
“Sure.” Kerry replied with a rare good temper.
Venus immediately ran to the kitchen when she got the reply, “Mrs. Qin, eat lunch early today, the earlier the better.”
Kevin looked at his brother with a puzzled look, and Kerry said coldly, “Today is the Memorial Day of her parents.”
So…
No wonder she looked so anxious.
…
When she reached the cemetery, two bodyguards followed her, making Venus furious, “You’re not allowed to follow. Can I run away here?”
Today, she didn’t want her parents to see her being held captive.
The two bodyguards looked at each other and stopped.
Venus was holding a large pile of things, in a sad mood. She stepped to the tombstones, placing flowers in front of the stone and pouring the wine. Then she kneeled in front of her father’s grave.
“Dad…” She just shouted a sound, but Venus cried out, “Dad…I’m sorry… I shouldn’t come so late… Dad, I didn’t keep the company …I’m sorry.”
Venus was crying harder and harder, and in the end, words couldn’t come out, so she just cried out in pain.
Not far away two bodyguards watched this scene, they sighed and lit up a cigarette.
After crying, Venus felt much calmer, so she went forward and wiped her mother’s photo with her hand, sobbing, “Mom, you and dad don’t worry, I…am happy… Kerry, he’s been good to me too…” Saying so, she cried again, “I’ll find my brother, and you and Daddy please keep him safe.”
…
The black Cayenne flew on the road like an arrow. Kerry had an inexplicable excitement, for his years of long-cherished dream would be achieved. How could he not be happy?
At 1:58, the black Cayenne steadily parked at the top of the mountain. The wind swirled up dust and wrapped the entire car in it.
Kerry was observing the surroundings carefully. Though it was a mountain top, but in fact it was a large piece of open land, with a pavilion on it for visitors to rest. The mountain top was surrounded by verdant pines and cypresses, which were green all year around. The wind blew, it rustled. A good place to hide.
