Chapter 353 - In Love
353 In Love
“The Eugene family is indeed malicious. I have just fought with their people.” Qiao Yue said in a low voice.
“Austin is the most powerful person that the Eugene family has produced in recent years.” Old Master Yin sighed.
“Your father has been looking for Austin all these years,” Old Master Yin continued.
“Austin?” Qiao Yue frowned.
“Austin was the most outstanding young man of the Eugene family then, but he was also the most evil.”
Austin owned D-Country’s largest drug supply chain, but he wasn’t keen on drugs and hadn’t even touched them.
He used the money from drug trafficking to set up a very large multinational company and later, a covert organization. It was said that this organization gathered elites from all over the world.
These elites all worked for Austin.
Qiao Yue frowned. Why did this organization sound so familiar?
“Your father worked for him at that time and was close to him like a brother. He was one year younger than your father, but he started his business when he was thirteen or fourteen years old. By the time he was seventeen, he was already a famous drug lord.”
At the mention of this person, Old Master Yin was filled with hatred.
“Unfortunately, your father couldn’t get rid of him. He even lost your mother because of him.”
Austin fell in love with Su Qing at first sight at a ball held at the Qiao residence. When he investigated Su Qing later, he accidentally discovered the relationship between Su Qing and Yin Xun.
After that, he sent people to murder Su Qing and even erased all traces of Su Qing at the Harvey Academy.
“This Austin is really scary. I have never fought him before, but most people who have didn’t end up well.” Grandpa Yin drank some tea before he continued, “After your mother’s passing, your father set up The Custodians.”
While this organization was wiping out all evil, its biggest task was actually to capture Austin, who was behind most evil.
“So, Colonel Su has been trying to get rid of Austin all these years?”
Old Master Yin nodded as he looked at Qiao Yue with eyes filled with love.
“I really didn’t expect to see you again after so many years. You really look like your mother.”
This was too much information. Qiao Yue thought that she was an orphan, but who knew that when she came to K-Country she would find out the secret about her birth, and find her grandfather and father?
“I was hoping that you would inherit my position, so the costume I’ve prepared for you was embroidered with a dragon.” Old Master Yin looked at Qiao Yue lovingly.
“If you are willing to come back to K-Country, I’d still like to hand my position over to you. However, Yin he has been the head of the family for so many years, so it’s…”
“Grandpa, I don’t need it. You don’t have to worry.” Qiao Yue took a deep breath. “I’m having quite a good life with the Qiaos now. I don’t want to leave the Qiao family.”
“I know that the Qiao kid is interested in you.” Old Master Yin said slowly. “But Qiao Yue, you have to know that they almost caused your mother’s death.”
“Besides, the ball where Austin and your mother met was hosted by the two brothers, Qiao Yi and Qiao Li.”
“What?”
Qiao Yue’s eyes widened.
She remembered what her two uncles had done. They had even given Qiao Xin as a gift to please the Eugenes.
Qiao Yue felt her brain go numb at the thought of this.
These two people were really…
“That’s why I don’t want you to stay with the Qiao family. I know that Qiao Jing is a good kid, but he’s related by blood to Qiao Yi and Qiao Li. The first madam, Tao Xi, was also involved in what happened back then. How can I be at ease with you two being together?”
Qiao Yue’s mind was still muddled when she walked out of the tearoom.
When Qiao Jing saw Qiao Yue, he quickly walked up and grabbed her arm. “What’s wrong, Qiao Yue?”
Qiao Yue looked at him and shook her head. “Second brother, I asked you that question twice before. If I asked you to choose between me and your mother, what would you choose? Do you still remember?”
Qiao Jing’s chest tightened. “I do. What happened?”
“Second brother, if I told you that my mother’s death is related to your mother, will you take her side?”
The girl’s eyes were clear under the sunlight and Qiao Jing didn’t know what to say.
This family secret was like an ocean between the two of them. The closeness they had now felt as distant as the horizon sail.
