Chapter 172: Jin's Past (Must Read)
When Jiang Shiwen heard what Ming Nanjin said, he suddenly sat up straight, his expression instantly became extremely serious, and his eyes revealed a solemn look.
"Jin, you mean..." Jiang Shiwen stopped talking abruptly, and his words hung in the air. Ming Nanjin couldn't wait to continue: "I want you to find people who bought poison on the dark web four years ago or even longer."
As soon as Ming Nanjin finished speaking, Jiang Shiwen's face suddenly turned gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.
"Jin, do you suspect it's about that?" Jiang Shiwen's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of uneasiness.
Ming Nanjin nodded slightly. Jiang Shiwen and Jiang Shiyu immediately understood what he meant.
However, Yan Zeyu, who was standing aside, looked confused. He really couldn't figure out what Jiang Shiwen was talking about. How many secrets was Ming Nanjin hiding from him? Yan Zeyu turned his head with resentment and stared at Ming Nanjin, his heart full of confusion and doubt.
Ming Nanjin felt Yan Zeyu's burning gaze, but this matter was too heavy for him. He really didn't want to mention it again. He just said lightly: "I'll go see Chengcheng, you check that matter."
After saying that, he turned around and left the study without hesitation. At this moment, he was extremely upset. In his opinion, only by going to find his sister could he calm down his restless heart.
After Ming Nanjin left, Yan Zeyu could no longer endure the torture of being kept in the dark. He regarded Ming Nanjin as a brother and could not accept that Ming Nanjin shouldered everything alone without sharing with him.
"No, I'll go find Jin and ask her clearly!" Yan Zeyu stood up suddenly, his eyes wide open, his face flushed red, and he looked like he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Jiang Shiwen quickly gave Jiang Shiyu a look, and Jiang Shiyu understood what he meant. He immediately stood up, opened his arms, and blocked Yan Zeyu's way.
"Don't bother Jin anymore. This is a knot in Jin's heart. Don't bother him anymore." Jiang Shiyu's tone was calmer than ever before, without the gunpowder smell when he was communicating with Yan Zeyu in the past. But Yan Zeyu had completely lost his mind at this moment and couldn't control his emotions at all.
He cared too much about Ming Nanjin. When he thought that Ming Nanjin seemed to be hiding something extremely important and sad, Yan Zeyu became anxious. He felt that his brother always bore everything alone without letting him know anything.
"Yan Zeyu, I know you are worried about Jin, but if you go to find Jin now, it will only make him remember the past again. What do you want to know, I will tell you." Jiang Shiwen stood up slowly. He was almost the same height as Yan Zeyu, but when he stood in front of Yan Zeyu, Yan Zeyu was completely suppressed by Jiang Shiwen's powerful aura.
"What exactly is that thing that Jin was talking about?" Yan Zeyu's tone was extremely anxious, with veins bulging on his forehead. He was eager to know what kind of hardships Ming Nanjin had experienced in the years before he met Ming Nanjin.
Jiang Shiwen motioned Yan Zeyu to sit down first. In fact, Ming Nanjin left suddenly just to give them some space. That incident still weighs on Ming Nanjin's heart like a heavy rock, making it difficult for him to speak. After all, no one who experiences such things at such a young age can easily let it go. Ming Nanjin's life at that time was simply horrible.
"Tell me quickly!" Yan Zeyu's eyes were full of eagerness and desire, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Jin's family was originally very happy, but one day, Jin's father brought a woman home. At that time, Jin's mother noticed something was wrong, but his father lied that she was just a partner who came to the house to get information. Jin's mother didn't think much about it. However, not long after, when Jin was eight years old, Jin's mother suddenly fell seriously ill and was sent to the countryside by Jin's father for recuperation. From then on, there was a woman and a younger brother in Jin's family."
At this point, Yan Zeyu probably understood why Ming Nanjin was reluctant to mention this matter. If it were him, he would probably find it difficult to talk about it. When Yan Zeyu heard about Ming Nanjin's past, his heart ached. It was hard to imagine that Ming Nanjin, who seemed cold on the surface, had such a tragic experience.
"Jin's mother passed away when he was fourteen years old. At that time, Jin was cut off from all contact with the outside world by his father. Jin didn't know about this until the day his mother was cremated. When he saw his mother's body, she had already been buried. Jin returned to the Ming family and saw that his mother's funeral had not been properly handled. His father couldn't wait to take that woman and boy into the Ming family and told Jin that this person would be his mother in the future. Jin completely fell out with his father on the spot, made a big scene at the Ming family, and then resolutely moved out of the Ming family to live alone."
Jiang Shiwen also felt extremely heavy-hearted when he recounted these events. When Ming Nanjin encountered these misfortunes, he and Jiang Shiyu were by her side. They both remembered Ming Nanjin's painful expression vividly, so they never mentioned a word about Ming Nanjin's past.
"So, Jin did all these things for revenge?"
Jiang Shiwen nodded slightly.
"Yes, Jin moved out of his home when he was fourteen. He expanded his power in just one year and founded the current Yu Gang. But then Jin disappeared for a year. When he came back, he lost interest in everything and no longer thought about revenge, until Xiao Chengcheng showed up."
"Then why is Jin talking about investigating the poison now?" Yan Zeyu roughly understood Ming Nanjin's past, but still didn't understand why Ming Nanjin wanted to investigate who bought the poison on the dark web in Gozhou City many years ago.
"Are you out of your mind? I've told you so much and you still don't understand? Wasn't the toxin on Chengcheng's face there when she was pregnant?" Jiang Shiyu's words instantly woke Yan Zeyu up from his dream.
"Jin is thinking, maybe Jin's mother wasn't sick, but was poisoned to death?"
When Jiang Shiyu saw that Yan Zeyu finally reacted, the expression on his face eased slightly, and he thought to himself: Fortunately, this kid is not too stupid.
"Yes, that's what I mean, but we can't be sure now whether all this is a coincidence or man-made. We need to investigate further." Jiang Shiwen's face suddenly became extremely solemn, his brows furrowed as if he could pinch a fly to death.
His eyes were deep and worried. If the final findings were as they guessed, Ming Nanjin would definitely do everything he could to poke a huge hole in the Ming family's sky. Who knows what kind of storm would be set off by then.
