PROGRESS OF THE MISSION ‘FIND THE REAL CULPRIT BEHIND BAI CHEN’S MOTHER’S DEATH’

76% => 80%}

Bai Chen was a little surprised when he once again received a notification from the system regarding his progress in revealing the truth behind Tang Yanmei’s death, but he actually didn’t need to be surprised when he once again managed to gain progress from the mission he had accepted from the system.

After all, he had just obtained another important piece of information related to Tang Yanmei from Wu Jinhai, and it was normal that the information would increase the percentage he collected from the system little by little.

He would normally immediately question the system about something whenever he received a notification from it, but his head went blank at the moment, and that was why no questions popped up in his head.

“So, someone wanted to destroy your father, but your mother didn’t tell me who it was at the time,” came another voice, but this time it didn’t belong to the system. Instead, it belonged to Wu Jinhai who had just helped Bai Chen increase his mission progress by 4%.

Wu Jinhai didn’t even know that Bai Chen needed to complete a mission related to Tang Yanmei, but the man ended up helping him so much that he was only 20% away from completing the mission, and Bai Chen was, more or less, feeling grateful to the man in red.

However, he knew that it would be weird if he suddenly thanked the man, and that was why he didn’t do that and instead chose to continue questioning the man, “That wasn’t the last time you saw my mother, right? Did you continue to communicate with my mother after that?”

.....

It was rare for Bai Chen to have such a strong feeling about something, but his suspicions were indeed accurate this time as Wu Jinhai confirmed, “You’re right. I’ve kept in constant communication with your mother for two years after we met that day.”

Wu Jinhai’s confirmation was enough to confirm that the black-haired man knew a lot about Tang Yanmei, and Bai Chen was sure he could make use of the man to help him complete the mission of the system.

It might sound heartless when he thought that he could take advantage of the man, but Bai Chen was indeed not going to let the opportunity pass because he did need Wu Jinhai’s help.

It was true that Wu Jinhai had fooled him, but the man had told him everything he needed to know, and Bai Chen had once again placed his trust in the man after he had heard many things from the man.

That man had even helped him get closer to completing the mission related to Tang Yanmei, and that was why he somehow thought that he could rely on the man from now on to survive in this world.

“You kept in contact with her for two years, and that was probably the period before her death, right?” Bai Chen spoke again. “She never said your name when she was alive, and I think it’s because you two want to keep your communications a secret? Why do you two have to hide the truth? Is it because you’re planning something with my mother?”

Bai Chen just made a random guess about how Tang Yanmei had never mentioned Wu Jinhai’s name in front of the real Bai Chen in this world. He believed that the random guess he had just made would not get him into trouble as Wu Jinhai would definitely not be able to question the real Bai Chen about it.

The real Bai Chen had died, right? That was why Wu Jinhai would not have the chance to ask the unlucky man for confirmation of what he had just said.

“Don’t you think you’ve heard too much today, Bai Chen?” Wu Jinhai smiled as he brought his large hand to caress Bai Chen’s head. “You don’t even have an appetite for dinner, and it’s not good for your health. I think you better rest now even if you don’t want to eat the food. I’ll tell you more about your mother tomorrow.”

Wu Jinhai once again tried to dodge Bai Chen’s question, but the werewolf somehow didn’t feel irritated by it. For some reason, he didn’t think that Wu Jinhai was trying to avoid telling the truth in front of him. The man genuinely cared about him, and he just wanted to delay until tomorrow before he told Bai Chen more about Tang Yanmei.

And Bai Chen was indeed exhausted at this time. He felt that today was very long and tiring. From morning to night, both his body and mind had not had enough rest, and that was why he knew that Wu Jinhai had not gone wrong with his suggestion.

He did need to rest at this point, and that was why he let out a heavy sigh before nodding at the taller man. “Okay,” he answered verbally. “I indeed don’t have an appetite, so you can prepare food for my breakfast tomorrow. I’ll go straight to bed tonight. There’s a bed in your house, right?”

It seemed Bai Chen had forgotten that Wu Jinhai was no longer Zhu Ge the servant, and he recklessly ordered the man around as he used his right hand to rub his sleepy eyes. He was about to rise from his sitting position, but he couldn’t move any further because Wu Jinhai suddenly pulled him into his arms before picking him up.

Bai Chen screamed when he noticed how Wu Jinhai was carrying him as if he were a woman, and he immediately snapped, “Let go of me, Wu Jinhai! I am a Prince and not a Princess, so you better not embarrass me!”

After all, Bai Chen was still the arrogant Prince of Dong Lang, and that was why he didn’t want to let Wu Jinhai treat him as a girl.

To his dismay, Wu Jinhai simply laughed at him before replying, “I’m not treating you as a Princess, Bai Chen. I’m treating you as my wife now, and you’d better be prepared because tonight will be our wedding night.”
