Chapter 342 - 342 PEOPLE IN BLACK CLOTHES



Just one word, but it was enough to make Fan Zedong feel even more frightened. Bai Chen was also curious about the continuation of the story, whereas Wu Jingguo was more curious about what actually happened to Bai Chen’s mother so the three of them even had to go all the way from the Xinyang Imperial Palace to this place.

Fan Zedong looked depressed under the three stares, and even his hands on the table were trembling slightly. His old eyes finally left the three of them and chose to look down at his trembling hands on the table.

“I... I really don’t know anything, Master Yu,” with some hesitation, Fan Zedong answered Yu Ming. “I just wanted to have a spectacular birthday party at the time, and someone offered that they would help with the money to be used for the party as well as entertainers to entertain the guests during the party. I didn’t even need to plan the party because that person was the one who got everything ready at the time, including inviting some girls from the famous brothel in town to entertain the guests.”

It seemed like the story was finally showing its light, and even Bai Chen looked eager as he asked, “Who was the person that helped you organize the party?”

Bai Chen did look enthusiastic and he almost looked impatient, and even both Yu Ming and Wu Jingguo turned to look at him. However, it was Yu Ming who responded, “Take it easy, Prince Bai Chen. You have to question the villain step by step, and you can’t just jump to that question. That will frighten our villain.”

Just like before, Yu Ming sounded very relaxed when voicing his opinion, but his calm statement was enough to make Fan Zedong frown in surprise.

“I... I’m not a villain, Your Highness! I didn’t even know that those people put something in your mother’s drink, nor did I expect your mother to spend the night with Emperor Bai Guowei at that time. I’m a good friend of Emperor Bai Guowei, and it’s my job to invite him to the banquet, but I don’t know anything about those people’s plans! I really had no intention to trap them!”

Perhaps the word “villain” that Yu Ming kept saying was enough to intimidate Fan Zedong, and that was why he immediately gave a further explanation even though Yu Ming had not asked him to continue.

.....

“So, you admit that you are a good friend of Emperor Bai Guowei, right?” Once again, Yu Ming continued his interrogation. “If that’s the case, then it can be said that you were the one who lured the Emperor into a trap, and that’s why you can’t say that you’re innocent at this point, Master Fan.”

“…” This time, Fan Zedong couldn’t give an instant answer, and even his tired eyes widened in fright after hearing how Yu Ming kept attacking him.

“Someone came to you and offered to help you with everything related to the banquet, and that person also asked you to ensure that Emperor Bai Guowei would attend the party, right, Fan Zedong?” Even Wu Jingguo was suddenly tired of being a listener, and he chimed in from the side. “That already looks suspicious, but you are too greedy to see the hint, and that’s why you still accept that person’s offer in the end. This friend of mine is right. You can’t just wash your hands by saying that you don’t know anything.”

Yu Ming glanced at Wu Jingguo, but he didn’t show any reaction after hearing what the younger man had just said. It seemed that Wu Jingguo just wanted to add pressure on Fan Zedong’s shoulders for the old man to immediately reveal everything necessary for their investigation tonight. He even once again pretended to be friendly with Yu Ming.

Even Yu Ming looked like he almost rolled his eyes when he heard how the Crown Prince called out to him once again, but he didn’t say anything. After all, perhaps it would be better if Fan Zedong received more pressure from someone with a high status like the Crown Prince.

And those three pairs of eyes could see how Fan Zedong’s face was as white as flour now, and he didn’t even dare to look the Crown Prince in the eye. Even his hands were shaking more and more, and right now, Bai Chen was worried that the old man might have a heart attack or something.

“Please calm down, Master Fan,” Bai Chen finally chimed in. “I am Tang Yanmei’s son, and I won’t view you as the villain as long as you tell the truth about what happened twenty-three years ago. I want to know who has given you the order to invite Emperor Bai Guowei, and I also want to know who helped you with anything related to the party that night.”

Bai Chen wasn’t a good person, but he also couldn’t take the risk if Fan Zedong suddenly died before he got the name that was involved in his mother’s misery all along. The name not only destroyed his mother’s life but also devastated Bai Guowei’s family, and that was why Bai Chen wanted Fan Zedong to live, at least for now.

Perhaps Fan Zedong saw a dim light after hearing Bai Chen say that he would not see him as a villain, and that was why the old man finally dared to set his sights on the Werewolf Prince.

He still looked terrified, but he was finally able to open his mouth to say, “Some men in black came to me a week before the banquet, Your Highness. But I think their leader was a man who covered his entire face with bandages. It was he who asked me to confirm that Emperor Bai Guowei is coming to the party.”

People in black clothes. In an instant, Bai Chen, Yu Ming, and Wu Jingguo could guess the identities of those people, but Bai Chen still wanted to confirm as he asked, “Those people you’re talking about, are they from the Black Werewolf Clan?”
