Chapter 1155 Gamble Your Life (1)

As they were eating happily, several unwanted guests appeared at the entrance of Jin Jin’s house.

Jian Yiling raised her head and saw the man she utterly hated.

Mu Ruohai! The person who killed A Sheng’s father!

He was suited and dressed like a successful businessman and was appearing in front of them in a rather grand manner. Jian Yiling put down her chopsticks and her hands began to clench into fists.

Mu Ruohai… Why wasn’t he locked up?

Hadn’t he gotten arrested by Superintendent Ruan?

If he was still out here, this meant that he was cleared from his charges and not sentenced to prison.

Jian Yiling did not know what had happened over here during the two years she disappeared.

As she was rather worried, she looked up at Zhai Yunsheng who was seated beside her.

“A Sheng, long time no see. Did you miss me? Uncle Mu misses you a lot,” Mu Ruohai said as he approached Zhai Yunsheng. “How dare you appear here?” Yu Xi asked as he stood up immediately. A murderer! How dare he appear in front of Master Sheng!

Jian Yunmo got up and walked beside Jian Yiling. It was as though he sensed that this man might hurt Jian Yiling at any moment.

Two years ago, before Jian Yiling’s disappearance, she almost sent this man to prison.

Mu Ruohai continued to smile as he looked at Zhai Yunsheng: “A Sheng, your complexion seems good. You ended up finding your fiancee. Honestly, if I were to make a comment, your hopeless infatuation makes you quite similar to your father.”

Not only did Mu Ruohai appear in front of Zhai Yunsheng, but he also deliberately mentioned Zhai Bochen.

Mu Ruohai continued to look at Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling with that smile.

However, his smile made everyone else feel very uncomfortable.

Zhai Yunsheng snorted before he replied: “Why do you need to come here when we’re eating? Don’t you know people will feel sick if they see cockroaches whilst eating?”

“A Sheng, don’t say such a thing. I will feel sad. After all, you used to call me Uncle Mu.” “Is that so? I must have been blind in the past,” Zhai Yunsheng replied.

Zhai Yunsheng supported his head with one arm and smiled at this man who murdered his father.

“Ahh, it seems as though you’re calmer than the average person,” Mu Ruohai praised. “Well, I came today to gamble with you.”

“Gamble?” Zhai Yunsheng asked as he raised his eyebrows.

“Yeah, you will bet all your assets and…” Mu Ruohai said as he turned his gaze towards Jian Yiling: “The Goodman family compass that currently belongs to your fiancee.” Even though two years had passed, Mu Ruohai’s desire for the Goodman family compass had not lessened the slightest.

The compass meant status, power, and wealth. Mu Ruohai wanted all of these things.

He did not know where Jian Yiling hid the compass. During her disappearance, Mu Ruohai could not find a single clue on the compass.

“And what if you lose?”

“If I lose, I will tell you the entire truth about your father’s death. In addition, I will turn myself into the police. As you know, your fiancee managed to find clues to other cases. However, she didn’t find a single clue about your father’s case. Even if I get caught one day, the truth about your father’s death won’t be revealed to the world. In fact, in this world, I’m the only one who knows the truth.”

Zhai Bochen died when Zhai Yunsheng was still young. As a result, his memory of that terrible day was not complete. He only remembered being held in the arms of his father as people around him kept arguing.

After that, his father died. Zhai Yunsheng spent a long time in that room with his father’s corpse.
