PE Ch24: Good at seducing people!
Lao Yu had been quietly observing the others.
Among everyone, the most eye-catching was Mr. Huai from Central City. So, the first person he looked at was Mr. Huai.
But Mr. Huai’s first glance was directed at Pan Yinchuan.
How strange.
Especially after Brother Jiu shouted, “This is Lao Yu,” it seemed even stranger.
This meant Mr. Huai intended to see him from the beginning!
But after arriving, Mr. Huai’s attention was immediately drawn to Pan Yinchuan.
How strange, Pan Yinchuan wasn’t some Omega beauty.
All of this, coupled with the fact that the Pan family didn’t receive a call resulting in the military being dispatched, only pointed to one thing—Pan Yinchuan had a close relationship with someone from Central City!
Lao Yu’s facial muscles twitched unnaturally. He moved from grabbing Pan Yinchuan’s sleeve to gripping his hand…
Huai Yu suddenly sighed, drew his gun, and fired.
With a “bang,” it hit Brother Jiu right in the forehead.
Everyone was shocked and jumped. The others at the banquet stood up and looked over.
The governor stood at a distance and waved to those who were uncertain, saying, “It’s nothing, Mr. Huai is just venting for his lover.”
Those who wanted to say something else suddenly heard what sounded like tracks rolling over the ground and instantly sat back down without thinking.
“You should know why you were called here. Come on, tell me what you plan to do.” Huai Yu holstered his gun and looked at Lao Yu, no longer paying attention to Pan Yinchuan.
Lao Yu took a breath, his eyelids trembling, slowly pulling himself out of the shock that almost stopped his heart…
Strangely, Pan Yinchuan beside him was much calmer, as if he had seen bigger scenes than this.
“I don’t know what Mr. Huai is talking about. This is the first time I’ve met Mr. Huai today…” Lao Yu’s nails dug into Pan Yinchuan’s skin.
Pan Yinchuan couldn’t help but hiss.
Huai Yu’s expression didn’t change, he just loaded his gun again.
“I thought you’d be more sensible.”
Lao Yu knew it was useless to keep pretending. He closed his eyes tightly. “Do you really have to do this?”
At this moment, he was glad he brought Pan Yinchuan along.
His original intention was to test Pan Yinchuan, but it turned out to be his biggest leverage.
With the Qinglong Society backing him, he could walk freely in Jiuhe City. But in front of Central City, he was nothing. Brother Jiu was shot dead on the spot, and the boss of the Qinglong Society didn’t even dare to move…
Lao Yu took a quick breath and said, “I want to make a bet with you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he swiftly grabbed Pan Yinchuan, hooked his fingers around Pan Yinchuan’s neck.
“I bet that you know this person in my hands, not only know him but are also closely related. … You probably didn’t expect me to bring him here, right?” Lao Yu stared at Huai Yu, struggling to overcome the inherent fear in his bones.
Pan Yinchuan, who had been up all night and now had his neck grabbed: “…”
“Uncle Yu.” Pan Yinchuan spoke.
“Don’t talk!” Lao Yu shouted excitedly.
“In fact, I wanted to ask you when I came back, did you intentionally introduce me to Nanta City?”
“…” Lao Yu paused for a moment, then laughed coldly. “I thought you were as dumb as your parents, but you already guessed? Mr. Huai here… did you report to him? I just can’t figure out how you did it? Selling your body? Your skills have improved so much that you could even sell yourself to Huai Yu…”
Lao Yu couldn’t finish his sentence.
Pan Yinchuan pulled out a gun, loaded it, pulled the trigger, and shot Lao Yu in the side.
“Bang bang—” There were two shots.
Huai Yu, whose expression had not changed, suddenly raised his hand and shot again, hitting Lao Yu’s shoulder.
The impact of the bullet was like a heavy punch, making Lao Yu stagger back, and Pan Yinchuan took the opportunity to break free from his grasp.
Lao Yu screamed in pain, looking at Pan Yinchuan in disbelief, “You, you shot?”
He knew Pan Yinchuan.
Not to mention shooting, he had never even seen a gun before!
Lao Yu’s son liked playing with guns, and once came home saying, how could there be such a well-behaved student like Pan Yinchuan, who was overly rule-abiding.
Pan Yinchuan nodded nervously, “Yes, just learned.”
Lao Yu: “…”
Pan Yinchuan didn’t expect Lao Yu to publicly accuse him of selling his body. Fortunately, he was well-covered today, so it wasn’t too embarrassing.
He sighed lightly and heard footsteps approaching.
Huai Yu suddenly got up, strode over, pushed Pan Yinchuan behind him, and kicked Lao Yu, stepping on his shoulder wound.
Lao Yu’s face instantly lost all color. He trembled, wailing while trying to escape his predicament, “I’ll talk!”
“I don’t really want to listen anymore.” Huai Yu said coldly, extending his hand. A bodyguard beside him handed him a machine gun.
One shot from this could blow Lao Yu’s head apart like a watermelon.
“Are you sure you want to kill me? Even if you kill me, there will be others who want his life in the future!” Lao Yu shouted urgently. “They stole something from me. That item… is very important! Let me tell you, I’m willing to tell you what it is…”
Pan Yinchuan frowned slightly.
Now he’s falsely accusing us?
Huai Yu raised an eyebrow and finally moved his foot off Lao Yu’s wound.
At this moment, the bodyguard brought over a chair, and Huai Yu sat down in front of Lao Yu.
“If what you say isn’t interesting to me…”
“You’ll definitely find it interesting!” Lao Yu struggled to get up, leaving several bloody handprints on the ground.
He crawled in front of Huai Yu, panting heavily, and said, “I, I once stayed in Central City for a month, participating in a secret development project. The core project was—gene modifier. I was a second-generation experimenter. The first generation mainly recompiled human DNA to remove some cancer genes. The second generation aimed to… transform Betas who failed to differentiate as adults into Omegas or… Alphas through genetic modification.”
“Do you know how powerful such a thing is? Aren’t you… interested?”
Lao Yu looked up at Huai Yu’s expression.
But to his disappointment, Huai Yu remained calm.
Lao Yu swallowed a mouthful of blood and continued, “And what about the following information? Are you not interested? I… I stole the gene editor and hid in Jiuhe City after escaping from Central City. I have a Beta son, and I used the gene editor to turn him into an Alpha.”
Huai Yu tapped the edge of the armrest with his fingers, showing a bit of impatience.
Lao Yu had to speed up his speech: “But I didn’t expect that Pan Yinchuan somehow seduced my son, and my son stole the gene editor and gave it to him!”
At this point, Lao Yu’s entire face twisted.
“And my son? He’s dead, he’s dead! I later saw it in the social news! Do you know what that news said at the time?—Sixteen-year-old boy with the surname Yu drowned while saving his Beta boyfriend with the surname Pan. My son died just like that.”
Huai Yu’s tapping paused.
“Now? Aren’t you interested? What is your relationship with Pan Yinchuan? Aren’t you worried that he’ll use your power and status, like he did with my son, to lead you into the abyss?” Lao Yu forced a cold laugh despite the pain.
“You mean the gene editor is now with Pan Yinchuan?” Huai Yu asked flatly.
“If not with him, then with the Pan family.”
“If Pan Yinchuan had it, why wouldn’t he use it to turn himself into an Alpha?”
“Maybe the time isn’t right. He knows his own advantages too well.—Being a Beta, harmless to humans and animals. Maybe my son didn’t have time to tell him how to use it before he was killed.”
Huai Yu pursed his lips tightly: “Did your son really know it was a gene editor when he gave it to him?”
“He definitely knew! Even if he didn’t, Wang Xiu could recognize it! Wang Xiu was a first-generation researcher, she doesn’t remember me, but I remember her!” Lao Yu said excitedly.
“I even think this is all a conspiracy. From the moment I brought my son to Jiuhe City, met Pan Yue Shan and his wife, and my son became Pan Yinchuan’s classmate, then Pan Yinchuan somehow seduced my son, making my son devoted to him…”
Lao Yu paused strangely and looked up at Huai Yu with difficulty: “See, he even managed to seduce someone like you…”
Huai Yu felt a surge of blood and a deep sense of discomfort welling up from within.
He turned to look at Pan Yinchuan.
But he couldn’t see his face clearly.
Pan Yinchuan still had one hand holding his hood, but the marks on his exposed wrist seemed even more noticeable.
Huai Yu turned back and asked, “Are you done talking?”
“Done, done.”
“Your original plan was to have Pan Yinchuan die in Nanta City, then take over the Pan family’s house and force the Pan couple to reveal the whereabouts of the gene editor?”
“…Yes. I wanted Pan Yinchuan to accompany my son in death. My son died, why should he still be alive? I knew there was turmoil in Nanta City, I knew what he would encounter there. I even hoped he would be humiliated before he died.” Lao Yu gritted his teeth.
“Accompany in death?” Huai Yu repeated the words on his tongue.
It sounded very uncomfortable.
The ancients said, “Together in life and death.”
“Accompany in death” sounded more like a curse, but it felt more like a blessing of love.
Huai Yu turned to look at Pan Yinchuan again.
The Beta stood there alone, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Huai Yu beckoned to him, “Come here.”
Pan Yinchuan tilted his head to look at him, not moving immediately. Only after confirming that Huai Yu was indeed calling him did he slowly move closer.
“He said he wanted you to die in Nanta City, to take your family’s house, and burden your parents with huge debts. … How do you want to deal with him now?” Huai Yu asked.
Lao Yu’s face changed drastically.
Did all his words just now go to waste?
It turned out, Lao Yu’s words were not wasted.
Huai Yu looked down at him coldly: “Let me see how Pan Yinchuan seduces me to get me to deal with you.”
Pan Yinchuan: ???
