My Beloved

Elder Madam Han smirked. "What's the hurry? I've told you everything, but you don't seem to want to share the reason you are here? That's fine too. I mean, only a fool wouldn't understand why you two are here."

Her relaxed tone gave the duo chills. They couldn't help but shiver.

Tang Yujin tried to stay calm. "What do you mean? I don't understand what you are trying to say."

Behind them, four bodyguards stood near the door, guarding them.

'Oh shoot! We are surrounded.' Han Luo finally noticed. She was so swamped with her grandfather's death that she didn't notice anything up until now.

In the blink of an eye, they were captured and tied up. Afterward, they were taken to a dark, cold room.

Elder Madam Han stared at the pitiful couple and sneered. 

"Don't think I don't know. You are still kids. You need enough knowledge and experience to go against someone like me."

She glanced at Han Luo and continued, "Xiao Luo, you've recognized me the moment you saw me, didn't you? Why didn't you greet me? Were you thinking that you were in front of a ghost?"

She laughed at her own joke. 

Han Luo's face turned pale. Her hands were tied back and she was forced to kneel on the cold floor. It was uncomfortable. Even so, she did her best to stay calm.

"How did you realize it's us?" she asked.

Elder Madam Han crossed her arms. "How can I not know? Did you think my men weren't keeping an eye on Song Li? I already knew you would be coming. I was waiting for you patiently."

'So, she knew everything and pretended to act along. We were fooled by her award-winning acting.' 

Han Luo wanted to kick herself. 'I guess I will ask her some questions since we are busted anyway. Hopefully, she will answer.'

"Why did you pretend to be dead and hide yourself? Is this related to the drug?"

Sitting in front of them, Elder Madam Han thought, 'What's the point in hiding? They will die soon. No one will be able to find their dead bodies here. The police will never find this place.'

She answered in a relaxed tone, "I was seriously ill. I got addicted to the drug I've created. I asked your grandfather to make it look like I was dead. 

"Your grandfather loved me dearly. Understanding the situation, he agreed to help."

Han Luo scanned her up and down. 

She commented, "You seem better now."

Elder Madam Han proudly raised her chin. In her eyes, everyone was beneath her.

"Of course, I made an antidote for the drug. But, I couldn't come to the light as I started selling the drugs in order to have enough material for the antidote. Before I knew it, I became obsessed with money and power."

Han Luo narrowed her eyes. 

"You are telling us everything. Are you sure we won't tell others?"

Elder Madam Han stated the obvious, "Deadman tells no tale, and I don't believe in supernatural stories."

Tang Yujin frowned. "You think you will get away with this?" 

He was thinking, 'She is planning to kill us and leave no evidence. Surely the police officers won't find this basement if they don't know the house's structure.'

Han Luo bit down her lower lip in frustration. 

'Let's just buy some time,' she decided.

"Grandfather… is he really dead?" she inquired. 

Elder Madam Han looked depressed for a second. 

"Yes, he died soon after your car accident years ago. He couldn't stand that his precious son met such a terrible fate."

Han Luo clenched her fists. "You sound like my father isn't your son. Let me guess, you were behind the car accident."

Elder Madam Han's elegant face distorted as she was reminded of something horrible.

She stood up and slowly walked close to Han Luo. All of a sudden, she grabbed Han Luo's hair and yanked her hair to raise her head.

"Shouldn't that be obvious? Your sl*tty mother seduced my stupid son and he turned against me. They were close to finding out about my little secret. I've been hiding my identity for so long, how can I let them find out? 

"Thanks to my husband, I've been able to hide. But your parents got in the way. I had to eliminate them all. Who knew that you would be saved and come to look for me? If I only knew, I would have killed you when I had the chance."

"I'll kill you!"

Han Luo couldn't take this any longer. She jumped at her. While talking, she distracted her grandmother and untied her hands.

'I had enough of this! Because of her wrongdoings, I lost my parents. I've suffered and never got my parents' love. Other children got scolded when they did something wrong. I had no one to scold me and punish me. Why do I have to feel this loneliness when she can drown in luxury? Unforgivable!'

Tang Yujin couldn't stop her. Moreover, he didn't want to stop her. He silently watched her tearing off her grandmother's hair and clothes. 

Han Luo grabbed Elder Madam Han's neck and used all her strength to choke her.

"You! Let go! Let go! Help!!" Elder Madam Han shouted.

No matter how elegant and evil she was, she was an old lady and was no match for a young girl who knew martial arts.

The guards heard from the outside that the situation was dire. Their boss's life was at stake. They rushed inside to take Han Luo away. 

However, Tang Yujin pulled out a revolver. He also untied his hand. 

Thanks to the custom-made wristwatches they wore, small, sharp knives were attached to them. It made their job easy.

"Try to take another step and you will die," he coldly threatened them.

One of the guards tried to step closer but he shot his leg without mercy. Other guards aimed their guns at Tang Yujin. 

Tang Yujin watched their movement and swiftly moved behind Elder Madam Han and Han Luo. The guards didn't dare to fire their guns in case their bullets made a hole in Elder Madam Han's body.

Elder Madam Han noticed it and gritted her teeth. She couldn't speak anymore. She nearly passed out.

At that moment, some people barged in. Tang Yujin saw Noah and police officers from the Secret Service arresting everyone and did not let anyone escape.

Noah carried Han Luo away from Elder Madam Han. 

"Relax punk, you are killing our number one criminal."

Han Luo glared at her. "She deserves to die."

"She will get a worse punishment than death, I promise you," Noah swore.

"Took you long enough." Tang Yujin handed his revolver to Noah. It was his gun after all.

Noah explained, "It's thanks to the hidden cameras in the necklace and earrings Xiao Luo was wearing that we got good shots and voice recording. 

"It took us some time to add coding to the security system and open the hidden door. If you want to blame someone, blame Xiao Yuan. He helped us with the security." 

Han Luo overcame her sadness and asked, "Where is big brother Yuan?"
