Chapter 1854: Its My Fault

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The three of them returned to the car. Qiu Yuluo was tasked with driving, so she turned around and asked Lin Yi.

Where to now?

Lin Yi closed his eyes and leaned against the chair in the back row.

Do you know Zhou Liangs family? What are his parents doing?

I know. Ive been there once before. Qiu Yuluo nodded.

I heard that the family business has been handed over to his nephew to manage. The old couple are both at home. This incident was a big blow to them. Theyll probably stay at home for a while.

Then lets go over and visit.

Are you sure? Qiu Yuluo probed.

As the team leader of Team 1,1 have to go over and visit since something like this happened.

Im afraid they wont like you, Qiu Yuluo said.

If you really want to go, you have to be mentally prepared.

Its okay. Lets go.

Qiu Yuluo didnt say anything else. Since Lin Yi had said so, she would accompany him.

After starting the car, Qiu Yuluo recalled the route and drove towards Zhou Liangs house.

Zhou Liangs house was in the villa area of Huanhua Creek. It was a typical nice neighborhood in Chengdu.

If it was in Zhonghai, it would be at the same level as the Jiuzhou Pavilion.

The Zhou familys villa was not as small as Villa No. 1. There was a large garden outside.

There were a few luxury cars parked in the courtyard. One was a Phantom, one was a Mulsanne, and the other was a white Mercedes-Benz G-Cla.s.s. They looked very clean and plain.

It also filled the entire villa with a gloomy aura.

Even the vibrant gra.s.s and blooming flowers in the courtyard did not bring life to this family.

The three of them parked at the entrance. As they entered, they were stopped by the security guard at the door.

You three are

Qiu Yuluo showed her ID. Were Zhou Liangs colleagues. Weve been here before. This time, were here on behalf of our superiors to express our condolences.

Seeing Qiu Yuluos ID, the two bodyguards took a closer look at her.

He seemed to have some impression of her, so he opened the door and let them in.

However, the most important thing was the doc.u.ment in her hand. No matter what the reason was, he had to let someone with this ident.i.ty pa.s.s.

After entering, the three of them walked towards the villa step by step.

At the same time, there were three people sitting on the sofa in the villas hall. Two of them were a middle-aged couple. They were Zhou Liangs parents, Zhou Xicheng and Fan Shuxian.

Next to Fan Shuxian sat a young woman in her mid-twenties. Her long hair draped over her shoulders, and her aura was similar to Qiu Yuluos. Every move she made gave off the aura of an older sister.

Ihe womans name was Fan Jiayi. She was Fan Shuxians niece and Zhou Liangs cousin. After graduating from university, she had been working in the Zhou familys company as a deputy general manager.

She came over today to talk to Zhou Xicheng about work, but looking at the

two of them, she held it in and did not say anything.

Eldest Aunt, the weather outside is quite good. Let me take you out for a walk, Fan Jiayi said as she held Fan Shuxians arm.

Ill sit for a while. Dont worry about me. Itll be fine.

Fan Jiayi didnt feel good either, but the dead couldnt be resurrected. She couldnt stay like this forever.

Hey, lets go out for a walk.

Zhou Xicheng stood up and sighed heavily.

When it came to matters of joy and sorrow, a mans emotions were naturally more restrained than a womans.

Even though Zhou Xicheng was also sad, after so many years of it being eroded by the waves, he had long cultivated his iron heart.

Unfortunately, his talent was limited. He did not have much talent when it came to exerting force in his dantian, so he did not have the chance to join the Central Guards Brigade.

However, ever since his son pa.s.sed the Central Guards Brigades trial and became an official member, he had been prepared for this.

This was because he had already learned from his father what kind of place the Central Guards Brigade was.

Opportunities and risks coexisted. While being able to quickly strengthen the family, the risks members faced were not small, just like on this mission. Therefore, he had long accepted this matter.

He didnt blame anyone. The heavens just didnt give the Zhou family any good fortune.

However, as a father, Zhou Liang was still the only son in the family. His good son was gone just like that. He also needed some time to ease the suppressed emotions in his heart.

Eldest Aunt, just listen to my uncle. Lets go out for a walk and relax. Its not a

good idea to stay at home all the time. Fan Jiayi comforted her.

Okay, lets go, Fan Shuxian said listlessly.

With Fan Jiayis help, the three of them walked outside.

Just then, Lin Yi and the other two walked in.

The Zhou family wasnt unfamiliar with Qiu Yuluo because she had attended Zhou Liangs burial ceremony, but they did not have any impression of Lin Yi and Ning Che.

Team Leader Qiu, youre here.

Seeing Qiu Yuluo, Zhou Xicheng forced a smile and went over to greet her.

Qiu Yuluo nodded and stepped aside to let Lin Yi and Ning Che step forward.

These two are my colleagues. Back then, because we had other matters to handle, we couldnt come here. This time, we came mainly to see you. If you need anything, just let us know. As long as we can do it, consider it done. learn Leader Qiu, youre too kind. My father had previously served in the

Central Guards Brigade. 1 know very well what kind of place this is. No one would want something like this to happen. You dont have to blame yourselves.

You were just doing your job, Zhou Xicheng said.

Lin Yi took off his mask and stood in front of the couple.

Im the team leader of Team 1 of the Central Guards Brigade. Zhou Liang was my subordinate. I have to take responsibility for what happened to him. I didnt protect him well. I apologize to the two of you here.

Youre the team leader of Team 1?!

The Zhou family was especially surprised to know Lin Yis ident.i.ty.

When they went to Yanjing to attend the memorial service, they found out the whole story.

His son and the team leader of Team 1 had died at the same time.

But now, how did he come back to life?

This was a misunderstanding. Im not dead, Lin Yi said in a low voice.

Im sorry that I could only come over now. I know that no matter what you say, it will be difficult to make up for the pain in your hearts. The fault lies with me.

Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che both looked at Lin Yi.

the Central Guards Brigade was a place that suffered great losses in battle.

There was no need for him to put all the blame on himself.

Lin Yi hadnt wanted this either. It was unfair to blame him.

My son left with you

Fan Shuxian looked at Lin Yi and said shakily.

Yes. We were on a mission together in Panem, but my poor decision-making eventually led to the tragedy.

Piack!

Caught off guard, Fan Shuxian raised her hand and slapped Lin Yi hard on the face.

The sound of slaps resounded endlessly!
