Chapter 344 Father
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
By the time they finished with Lin Hui and Zhang Yan, it was already midnight.
Hanshan City wasn’t safe, and no one had called the police, so no one actually asked about what happened with the Lins.
It wasn’t until the next day when the food delivery people saw the tragic deaths of Lin Hui and Zhang Yan, as well as the video recording they had left behind, that someone called the police.
At this time, Qiao Jing, Qiao Yue and the team sent by The Custodians had already returned to their hotel.
The Custodians team did not leave town immediately. Instead, they planned to stay in Hanshan City for a while before they left.
Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing had long wanted to have a drink with Su Xun and his team, and this was the perfect opportunity.
Qiao Jing sent his assistant to buy some wine from a nearby supermarket.
The three of them sat on the rooftop of the hotel and started drinking under the night sky.
Su Xun had been to many countries; his knowledge and experience were all very interesting.
Su Xun poured glasses of wine for Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing. “I have to thank the two of you for today. If you haven’t found so much evidence in advance, our operation wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.”
“What you are doing is very admirable. It’s only right that we help you.” Qiao Jing reached out and clinked glasses with Su Xun.
“Why is Colonel Su staying at Hanshan City? Is there some other business you need to deal with?”
Su Xun shook his head. “I’m not young anymore. I thought that I’ll retire after a few more missions. Besides, I’ve found the person I’ve been looking for.” Su Xun lowered his head and smiled.
“Is it Colonel Su’s sweetheart or something?” Qiao Yue asked nosily.
“My wife passed away many years ago.” Su Xun’s eyes were a little red. “It was my fault.”
The mood turned somber instantly.
Qiao Yue looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and empathized with his pain.
“My parents died when I was very young, so perhaps I can understand your pain.”
“Both your parents?” Su Xun was a little surprised.
“Yes, my father disappeared, and my mother died from illness.”
Doubt flashed across Su Xun’s eyes momentarily, which confused Qiao Yue.
“Your father disappeared. He could still be somewhere on earth doing something very important to him. It’s just that he can’t meet you for some reason.”
Su Xun took a swig of wine with his head lifted.
“Perhaps. If he’s still alive, I hope that he never sees me again. After all, he was so cruel to abandon me and my mother. I will never forgive him.”
Su Xun did not say anything more. Instead, he swallowed another mouthful of wine.
“So, Colonel Su has found your family?” Qiao Jing asked.
“Yes, I found my daughter… But she’s grown up to be a good person. She has her own family and career… Since she’s married, it’s not very convenient for me to just show up as her father.”
When Qiao Yue heard Su Xun’s words, she suddenly felt that she had been a little harsh with her words.
“I’m sorry, Colonel Su. My father is a scumbag. I heard that he abandoned my mother back then, which was why I said that. I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
Su Xun shook his head and clinked glasses with Qiao Yue. “It’s not right to abandon one’s family. I’m just like your father. I’m an irresponsible man and an irresponsible father.”
Su Xun turned his head and looked at the night sky. “My daughter is just like you. She’s a smart and kind girl. I hope you can forget the pain brought on by your birth family and have a better future.”
Qiao Yue nodded. When she looked up, she saw tears flowing down Su Xun’s face.
“Colonel Su, if you really miss your daughter, you should go and see her, as a friend or in some other capacity.”
There was a saying that real men don’t cry. Qiao Yue couldn’t bear to see Colonel Su cry for his child and family.
“If I have the chance, I will.” Colonel Su wiped the tears off his face. “Why are we talking about sad things? It’s my problem. I shouldn’t have mentioned it. Let’s drink.”
Qiao Jing quietly clinked glasses with Qiao Yue and Su Xun, but his eyes were darting between the two.
A strange hypothesis appeared in his mind.
“Your daughter is already married. What kind of person is her husband?”
“He’s just an ordinary boy, but he’s very kind and filial. I believe that he’ll treat my daughter well.” Su Xun said as he looked at Qiao Jing.
