After Being Betrayed, I Inherited A Massive Fortune-Chapter 267 - Escalation

“Yun Qing, I just want to tell you is that Ryan employs the use of mercenaries. “At that moment, Huo Chuan mentioned another matter. “And they are related to the war from that year.”

Yun Qing’s pupils dilated.

Is It related to the war that year?

She thought of those mercenaries who always came after her life. The bullets and the near-misses suffocated Yun Qing.

If what Huo Chuan said was true, that the mercenaries behind Ryan had something to do with the war that year, Yun Qing truly had something to fear.

At that time, she had killed a few mercenaries with her own hands, and one of them was a highly-ranked officer.

“I know you may not believe me, but this is the truth.” Huo Chuan looked at Yun Qing seriously. “So, I’m very worried. You have to be careful.”

“I understand.”

Huo Chuan was being kind, so Yun Qing could not bear to be unkind to him and conceded.

“I’m going into the house. You should go back too.”

After saying that, Yun Qing walked towards the villa’s door without looking back.

Huo Chuan only turned around and reluctantly left when he saw Yun Qing disappear into the house.

When she returned home, Yun Qing was stuck on the sofa, her mind still thinking about Huo Chuan’s words.

It shouldn’t be as bad as she thought, right?

Ryan wouldn’t use a child to get close to her, right?

Thinking that Jack’s cute face was most likely the tool Ryan was using to get closer to her, Yun Qing felt cold sweat break out on her back.

However, on second thought, this could also be the reason why Huo Chuan was so insistent that she stayed away from Ryan.

Yun Qing couldn’t be led by the nose like this. She hurriedly called Zhu Zhan and asked him to investigate some of Ryan’s family background.

Life returned to normal. Yun Qing went to work and got off work every day. Huo Chuan disappeared for a few days, which gave Yun Qing the peace of mind and some perceived freedom from the past.

However, the news from Zhu Zhan once again shattered Yun Qing’s peaceful life.

Yun Qing was in her office when Zhu Zhan knocked on the door and walked in hurriedly.

“President Yun, I found some information about Ryan.” Zhu Zhan handed a stack of documents to Yun Qing, “His background is indeed not simple. Just like President Huo said, his family is doing legitimate business on the surface, but in fact, they are practically a private army. free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

“Many foreign wars have been traced back to his family.”

Sure enough, what Huo Chuan said was true.

“Got it.” Yun Qing took a deep breath, sensing that she had once again been tangled up in something complicated.

After Zhu Zhan left the office, Yun Qing sat on the chair in a daze and fell into deep thought.

She originally thought that the past would remain in the past. However, the moment she flew out of her home soil, she almost immediately found grudge-fueled bullets fired her way. She realized that the hatred from a few years ago had not disappeared.

Although Yun Qing was not sure if Ryan was truly related to the group of people who had a grudge against her, her intuition had always been accurate. The way Ryan looked at her that day had not been as friendly as before. Instead, there was a hint of viciousness in his eyes.

If he really had no ulterior motives, then why was he so angry to learn that Yun Qing had heard some features about Jack’s mother? Moreover, from his appearance, it was undeniable that he hated Jiang Yue to the core.

Yun Qing’s emotions were a little complicated. On one hand, it was the innocent and pitiful little Jack. On the other hand, it was Ryan that she needed to be wary of.

For a moment, she did not know how to deal with it.

It was finally time to get off work. According to the agreement between Yun Qing and Jack, she would be bringing Jack to the park after work today. After thinking about it, Yun Qing still decided to accompany Jack.

When they arrived at the underground parking lot, Yun Qing was just about to open the car door and get into the car to leave when she heard the sound of hurried footsteps.

“Yun Qing! Run!”

It was Huo Chuan’s voice.

Before Yun Qing could react, there was a loud explosion. Yun Qing was pushed to the ground by Huo Chuan, and flames burned behind her.

“Huo Chuan? Huo Chuan!”

After a short period of deafness, Yun Qing saw that Huo Chuan, who was protecting her, was not moving at all. She called out to him anxiously.

However, Huo Chuan did not respond for a long time, and Yun Qing felt a wave of fear in her heart.

She shook herself free from Huo Chuan’s body and looked at Huo Chuan, who had his eyes closed tightly. She called out to him again and again.
