CHAPTER 553: CHAPTER 553: WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT THESE THINGS?!

In Lai Wenyan’s heart, Tang Yin was a taboo that could not be mentioned.

Mentioning Tang Yin, Lai Wenyan’s emotions flared, and his eyes grew increasingly gloomy. Because of Tang Yin, he deeply detested the period of time he spent undercover. However, when others spoke of his achievements, they always talked about how he infiltrated the Drug Trafficking Group and how he shot and killed the Drug Lord Tang Shen with a single bullet, making it impossible for him to forget Tang Yin.

Tang Li looked at his ugly expression and suddenly felt like laughing.

People like Lai Wenyan, vain and arrogant, ascended by deceiving women yet refused to admit it, hence they vented all their negative emotions on the deceased Tang Yin.

"You mentioned last time that my grandfather was a drug trafficker. I’m really curious how a pampered Councilman like you could have any connection with the daughter of a drug trafficker?"

On hearing this, Lai Wenyan’s anger seemed ready to explode at any moment.

Tang Li didn’t bother with him and continued: "Somebody told me that although my grandfather was a drug trafficker, my mother received a good education. She got into Manchester University through her own efforts, studied abroad on state funding, and when she returned, she fell for one of my grandfather’s subordinates."

That subordinate was the young Lai Wenyan.

At over fifty, Lai Wenyan looked no different from a forty-year-old, showing no signs of aging. Perhaps because he had been a special police officer in his youth, he kept in good shape, without a big belly, and especially after becoming a Councilman, he exuded the charm of a successful man.

Tang Yin was petite, and to a certain extent, Tang Li inherited her height from Lai Wenyan, and her facial features also bore traces of Lai Wenyan.

Even though Tang Li didn’t get along with this father, she had to admit that Lai Wenyan was quite handsome; it wasn’t strange that Tang Yin would fall for him twenty years ago.

Tang Shen’s business was illegitimate, and the people around him were mostly uneducated.

Lai Wenyan graduated from the police academy, behaving differently from the unrefined thugs, and also because of his higher education, Tang Shen temporarily assigned Lai Wenyan to act as a driver and bodyguard for the newly returned Tang Yin.

These things, Tang Li only found out in her past life.

Lai Wenyan, upon realizing Tang Yin’s feelings for him, might have hesitated, but ultimately, he chose to deceive her.

Tang Shen had only one daughter, and he treated his son-in-law as his own son, taking Lai Wenyan with him to many important occasions and began to entrust him with real business responsibilities.

"My grandfather’s subordinate was actually undercover, but my mother didn’t know that. She married him and enabled him to be successfully integrated into the group’s core management."

As Tang Li spoke, she never took her eyes off Lai Wenyan’s irate face: "My grandfather shouldn’t have trusted him so much, being a person who had weathered great storms. He wouldn’t possibly have not been cautious. Coincidentally, at the time my mother was pregnant. She first told her father, planning to surprise her husband. And because of this, on the day my grandfather went to negotiate an important deal, he took his son-in-law, planning to have the son-in-law take over his position—"

"Who told you these things?"

Lai Wenyan suddenly interrupted Tang Li.

His gaze was fierce, like a wild beast whose territory had been invaded, ready to strike a lethal blow at any moment: "Who told you all this?!"

Faced with Lai Wenyan like this, Tang Li was not panicked.

She stretched out her left hand and slowly uncurled her fingers, and a small stone fell into the air.

An agate stone, swinging with the red cord.

"About 12 years ago, my aunt and older sister took a trip to Diannan. When my sister left, she took my mother’s necklace."
