592: Chapter 592: The Promise!
This birthday was the most delightful one Li Shuangshuang had experienced in years.
It wasn’t just because so much had happened today but also because of the bracelet Zhou Yu had given her, which filled her with joy.
During the birthday banquet, Zhou Yu and Li De’an surrounded her and sang her the birthday song.
Li Shuangshuang also drank a lot.
By twelve o’clock in the evening, Li Shuangshuang had already passed out drunk.
After settling Li Shuangshuang down, Zhou Yu and Li De’an stepped out onto the villa’s balcony.
Gazing at the night sky, Zhou Yu started, “Mr.
Li, just what is the relationship between the Han Family of Shanghai City and Shuangshuang?”
Rarely, Li De’an took out a cigarette and lit one.
He took a deep drag and slowly exhaled.
Watching the smoke drift away with the wind into the night sky, Li De’an finally began to speak slowly:
“Shuangshuang’s mother was from the Han Family of Shanghai City…”
Li De’an recounted Li Shuangshuang’s circumstances to Zhou Yu.
Shuangshuang’s mother, Han Mingyue, was the cherished daughter of the Han Family of Shanghai City.
Twenty-five years ago, when Han Mingyue was attending university in Shanghai City, she t Shuangshuang’s father, Li Yueming.
The two seed to be fated partners from a previous life, not only sharing similar nas but also falling deeply in love at first sight, swiftly becoming passionately involved.
This matter was quickly discovered by the Han family.
Once the Han family investigated Li Yueming’s background, they found he was just an ordinary person from the lowest social stratum.
What followed was just like any other story of a rich girl and a poor boy; the Han family imdiately sent soone to warn Li Yueming, asking him to leave Han Mingyue voluntarily.
Li Yueming naturally refused, but the Han family was a powerful force.
They needed only to apply slight pressure for it to feel like a crushing weight to Li Yueming.
Li Yueming was initially one of the most outstanding youths at his school, but because he defied the wishes of the Han family, many inexplicable issues arose regarding his academics and character.
He quickly went from a model student to one with a notorious reputation and was eventually expelled from the school.
Heartbroken, Li Yueming left Shanghai City.
Unexpectedly, Han Mingyue followed him.
Han Mingyue swore that no matter where Li Yueming went, she would never leave him.
In this lifeti, she would marry no other.
Li Yueming was touched, and the couple hid away in the Capital City.
In the Capital City, Li Yueming worked hard and quickly established a substantial family business.
anwhile, Han Mingyue also gave birth to a daughter.
Day by day, their life started to improve.
However, the good tis did not last long; the Han family found them.
The Han family, ruthless in their thods, showed no rcy to Li Yueming and had him killed in secret, demanding that Han Mingyue return ho.
Han Mingyue, being a woman of strong character, nearly broke down upon learning that her husband had been murdered by her family.
She entrusted her daughter to Li Yueming’s ntor, which was Li De’an.
After settling her daughter, Han Mingyue also took her own life, following Li Yueming in death.
That’s roughly what happened.
“Over the years, the Han family has been looking for Shuangshuang, and I have been hiding in Yancheng, rarely leaving, also for fear that the Han family would find out.”
“However, I never expected that they would co after all.”
A deep worry showed in Li De’an’s eyes.
“The Han family has established themselves in a place as fierce as Shanghai City and has grown to such a large extent today; their thods are so ruthless, beyond what ordinary people can imagine.”
“I don’t know what they want by taking Shuangshuang back, but I know that with her naive and cheerful personality, it would be difficult for her to survive in that kind of family, and what could happen to her, nobody knows.”
At this point,
Thump!
Li De’an suddenly knelt down.
“Zhou Yu, I want to ask you a favor.”
This action startled Zhou Yu.
He hurriedly helped Li De’an up.
“Mr.
Li, I have always regarded you as family, please don’t do this, stand up and talk.”
Zhou Yu firmly helped Li De’an up.
Li De’an’s eyes were filled with sorrow.
“I am already in my twilight years, and in this life, I’ve only known dical skills; I have no way to fight against the Han family.”
“But I do not wish for Shuangshuang to fall into misery.”
“I want to ask you, you must help Shuangshuang.”
“No matter what, keep her happy and let her live out her life joyfully.”
Zhou Yu held Li De’an’s arm, his eyes gleaming with resolve.
“Mr.
Li, rest assured, even without you asking, I will protect Shuangshuang.”
“I promise you, whoever wants to harm her, or force her to do sothing she does not wish to, they will have to contend with first.”
“With your words, I can die in peace,” Li De’an said with gratitude.
Zhou Yu shook his head and smiled.
“Mr.
Li, don’t talk of such disheartening things, you need to live well too.”
“If you were gone, Shuangshuang would be very sad.”
“Alright, alright.” Li De’an nodded heavily.
After talking a little more with Li De’an, Li De’an went back to rest.
anwhile, Zhou Yu continued to gaze at the starry sky from the balcony.
He pondered over how to tackle the issue with the Han family of Shanghai City.
Zhou Yu thought over the recent events, only to realize that he had already made enemies with several powers in Shanghai City.
In fact, it was now far more than just a matter with the Han family.
“It seems necessary to thoroughly sort out the situation in Shanghai City,” Zhou Yu muttered to himself.
Suddenly, he rembered sothing.
Zhou Yu reached into his pocket and pulled out a business card.
Looking at the phone number on the business card, Zhou Yu reluctantly said, “I didn’t want to deal with this woman, but now it seems impossible to avoid.”
Zhou Yu took out his phone and dialed Zhao Da’s number.
After a few rings, Zhao Da’s sleepy voice ca through.
“Who is it?”
“It’s , I’m Zhou Yu.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Da fell silent.
Seconds later, her languid voice changed, becoming sowhat excited.
“Zhou Yu, I didn’t expect you to call ?”
“Have you changed your mind?”
Zhou Yu nodded.
“I agree to cooperate with you.”
“However, I need you to do so things too.”
“You say it, I will do my best to get it done for you.”
“I need detailed information on all the forces in Shanghai City, the more detailed, the better…”
