Hong Guang stared at Lord Sun in a daze, shaking with fear.
He knew that once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Once he tells what happened thirteen years ago, he can never take it back.
My thoughts go back to a few days ago.
One night, Hong Guang and Tao went to bed, but for some reason, the candles in the room suddenly lit up.
Hong Guang got up to extinguish the candle and prepared to go to bed, but the candle lit up again.
When he turned around, he saw a man in a black brocade robe standing in front of him, with a pair of peach blossom eyes glancing at him. Before he said a word, Hong Guang already felt his murderous intent.
"You... who are you?" Hong Guang asked tremblingly, puzzled.
The man had a handsome appearance and a luxurious appearance. He could not be an ordinary person.
"It doesn't matter who I am." The man said slowly.
At this time, Tao had been drugged and knocked unconscious by him, and had completely lost consciousness.
"Thirteen years ago, it was you who kidnapped the eldest daughter of the Ling family and sold her to a remote village?" the man asked.
"I didn't. I didn't do this."
Although Hong Guang didn't know who the man in front of him was, he knew that he could never admit to what happened thirteen years ago.
I thought the man would continue to ask questions, but he didn't. After listening to Hong Guang's answer, the man nodded, then turned around and looked out the window.
Then a servant came in, carrying a child in his hands.
The child seemed to be eight or nine years old, but in the servant's hands, he was like a little chick.
Like Dow, the child was in a coma.
"Jun'er!"
When Hong Guang saw his precious son in the man's hands, he became anxious. He stepped forward and wanted to take his son back, but the man suddenly drew his sword and blocked Hong Guang's way.
Hong Guang was shocked.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"I want you to go to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion by yourself and make public what happened thirteen years ago." The man said to Hong Guang.
How is this possible.
Hong Guang has been hiding his true intentions for more than a decade. If he really wanted to surrender himself, he would have done so long ago. Why would he have waited until now
"If not, I will kill your son." The man said slowly.
For some reason, Hong Guang felt that what the man said was true.
If he says he wants to kill someone, he can do it.
Thinking of this, Hong Guang couldn't help but shudder.
"I've already told you that the Ling Mansion incident has nothing to do with me. You asked me to report it to the police, but what can I say? Besides, Jun'er is still a child. He doesn't know anything. Why are you making things difficult for him?"
"I'm not trying to make things difficult for him. It's you, as a father, who would rather give up your son's life than take responsibility for the wrong things you've done. Even if your son dies, you can't blame me, but yourself." The man's tone was cold, without any emotion in it.
Hong Guang was speechless.
It seems that this man is not so easy to convince.
"How about this, I'll let you think about it for a few days, and then you give me the answer after three days?" Seeing that Hong Guang was hesitating, the man did not rush him, but gave him time to think carefully.
"But I want to take your son back with me." The man curled his lips slightly.
"No, no! You can't take Jun'er away!" Hong Guang was very anxious and was about to rush forward again.
The man was quick-witted and waved his hand immediately, and the servant disappeared into the night with the child.
"Jun'er! Jun'er!"
Hong Guang ran to the door, but Hong Jun was nowhere to be seen.
"I will come to you in three days. If you promise me, I will return your son to you intact. If you don't agree..." the man paused.
"Then you will watch your son die in front of you."
After saying that, without waiting for Hong Guang to speak, the man quickly climbed out of the window.
In the blink of an eye, the yard returned to normal.
Hong Guang's legs went limp and he sat down on the ground.
Three days later, the man arrived as promised. Just as he said, Hong Jun was indeed intact, and even looked better than when he left.
"father!"
When Hong Jun saw Hong Guang, he immediately wanted to rush over. The man grabbed Hong Jun's arm.
"Jun'er...be gentle and don't hurt him."
Hong Guang saw the man grabbing Hong Jun's arm, fearing that he would be in pain, so he quickly reminded him.
The man didn't care.
"Have you decided?"
"Didn't I tell you, I..."
Before Hong Guang could finish his words, the man suddenly grabbed Hong Jun's neck.
Hong Jun felt pain and his face became more ferocious.
"Have you decided?" the man asked again.
"Dad... save me..." Hong Jun used all his strength to ask Hong Guang to save him.
Seeing that Hong Jun was already rolling his eyes, Hong Guang had no choice but to agree.
So, he came here today.
"What are you doing?!"
Seeing that Hong Guang was silent for a long time, Lord Sun raised his voice and yelled at Hong Guang.
Only then did Hong Guang come to his senses.
"Yes. Thirteen years ago, the eldest daughter of the Ling family went missing. It was not an accident, but a plan by me."
When these words were spoken, the people who were gathered at the door to watch the excitement were shocked.
The fact that the eldest daughter of the Ling family was missing was no secret in the capital. Even before Ling Qingwan returned, people could sometimes still hear discussions about her in the streets.
When talking about the missing eldest daughter of the Ling family, most people lament her miserable life.
She was born a rich lady, but before she could enjoy two years of comfortable life, she disappeared. It has been so long and we still don't know whether she is dead or alive.
Unexpectedly, Ling Qingwan’s disappearance was not an accident, but a conspiracy.
"If what you said is true, you should still remember the specific details. First, tell me why you kidnapped Miss Ling and how you did it." Lord Sun said to Hong Guang.
Hong Guang spoke tremblingly.
Hong Guang had only one sister. Soon after his sister was born, his mother died of poor health. His father was an idler, so Hong Guang and his sister grew up eating at hundreds of houses in the village.
Afterwards, Hong Guang married a woman from the same village. Two years after his marriage, Hong Guang's father died of illness.
Originally thought to be poor for life, but unexpectedly, Hong Guang's sister was spotted by drunk Ling Feng while going to the market one day, and was taken back to his house and had sex with. As a result, Hong Guang's sister became pregnant and lived in Ling's house from then on.
Hong Guang was overjoyed and wanted to become rich by relying on his sister. However, after ten months of pregnancy, the baby was born to a girl.
What made Hong Guang even more depressed was that his sister had always been weak since she was a child. Ever since the birth of her child, she had been hanging on to her last breath, as if she was about to die.
Ling Feng didn't like Hong Guang's sister very much. He brought her into the Ling Mansion just to kill time. Later, she became pregnant, so he had no choice but to keep her. Now she can only stay in bed all day, and Ling Feng has lost interest in her.
In this huge Ling Mansion, only Ling Shen cares about her.
One day, Hong Guang went to the market to buy things and met a good friend from the neighboring village, and they chatted for a while.
