To Love You Again
Chapter 831  Truth Came to Light

831  Truth Came to Light

However, late at night when Lu Jin was called to his father's study, the man he feared appeared again.

"You followed my instruction. Although you are somewhat obvious, it still went well. However, you have to do something about your expression. You will ruin things for me if people could easily read your feeling and thoughts in your face. To avoid having weakness like that, try to control your expression. It is better if you remain expressionless and cold."

The young Lu Jin did not answer. But he followed his father's words. Perhaps it was the fear that made the young Lu Jin obedient to this man. He did not dare to act stupid or disobey his words.

In the following months, Lu Jin would be called at night and received his father's lesson.

If he was not able to strictly follow his father's instructions, he would be subjected to 'discipline'. There were times when the pain was too much that Lu Jin wanted to tell these insane and dubious lessons to his mother and grandfather.

However, before he could do that, he would find his silly brother in his father's study. His father would then smile at him. Without the words of threats, the smart Lu Jin understood his father's meaning.

His father was right. Expressing his thoughts and feelings on his face would be a weakness for him.

In the end, the young Lu Jin adhered to Ming Zhi Yi's words. The kid was clever and when he poured his mind into it, he could master things easily.

He was taught in Ming Zhi Yi's way. He becomes more intelligent, strong, and ahead of his peers in many ways.

The gentle kid turned indifferent and cold. He carried his expressionless face whenever he went until it become a part of him. It become a mask that he could not take off.

Ming Zhi Yi's teaching had really shaped him into an indifferent, capable, and peerless young master.

The young Lu Jin, while learning things secretly under his father, was able to observe Ming Zhi Yi who was wearing two masks.

The gentle mask that his father wears during the day and was familiar to everyone was flawless. This mask was spotless because his father believed he was a devoted husband, a patient father, and a kind son-in-law. But this role ended when night descends.

The other mask was the one Lu Jin was familiar with.

That mask was frightening, cold, and merciless. Its only purpose was to achieve perfection and something else. A reason that the young Lu Jin at that time did not fully understand. Only when things came to light that he learned this 'something else' was actually 'revenge'.

However, none of these masks was his father.

If he had not caught a glimpse of his father without wearing any of the masks, Lu Jin's betrayal must have come early and smoothly.

He must have pulled down his father from the pedestrian unhesitantly even without the help of Xiong Zhi and Linfeng. He might have sought justice on his own.

However, the reality was never been easy. Lu Jin wore the mask that he could not put down. He chose to accompany his father on a brutal and hellish path.

It was only when the cowardly him almost lost everything and an opportunity presented that Lu Jin had to close his eyes and walk away from his father.

The time for him to put down his mask had come.

***

"I solemnly declare and affirm that the evidence I shall give will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." Lu Jin's cold tone reverberated in the court.

Everyone looked at his handsome expressionless face. They inwardly wondered what kind of shocking things they would hear from Lu Jin today.

They have heard a crazy story from Lu Yin Ze, Ming Zhi Yi's second son. Now, what kind of story Lu Jin has, Ming Zhi Yi's eldest son and his right-hand man could possibly have?

Lu Jin looked at the people in the audience before opening his mouth once again.

"I was ten years old when I first become Ming Zhi Yi's accomplice. " Lu Jin halted. His eyes lashes trembled. Speaking in front of his deepest secret and exposing his thoughts in front of everyone was actually unnerving. He did not dare to look at his brother's face as he said the next words. "Back then I don't know that the medicine I gave to my deceased mother was actually poison. I helped my father pour the content in her glass every night."

Lu Jin remembered his father's instructions that day.

'This will help your mother. Mix it with her medicine.'

The young him that had already used to having a cold face and followed his father's words without question took the sachet from his father. At that time, he did not even wonder why his father took it back for a moment like he was hesitating. But then let go after.

If Lu Jin questioned it, he would not have stepped furthermore into a murky path.

The people in the audience seat murmured.

Unbelievable. Ming Zhi Yi was really a scum.

But Lu Jin was not yet finished.

"On that following year, I found Gunan." Xiong Zhi suddenly raised her head. Lu Jin swallowed to moisten his throat. He felt dry and heavy.

"I was the one who introduced the homeless Gunan to him. I thought I was helping Gunan in that way, but I....I actually dragged him into another hell."

The courtroom was silent.

Lu Jin continued. "Before Gunan died, he told me that before he got accepted fully by Ming Zhi Yi, he was ordered to kill a disabled woman." Lu Jin was having a difficult time recounting this story. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes as he continued. "He said that woman on the hospital bed has silver hair."

There were murmurs in the hall. A silver-haired woman? Could it be....

Lu Yin Ze's took a deep breath. He did not know this story.

Did his mother die not only at the hands of that devil but to a child as well?

Lu Yin Ze felt weak inside. The anger he felt towards that devil intensified.

The heirs at the front were also shocked. Lu Jin ignored them and continued. "After that, Gunan took Guan Gao Huan's identity and was brought to the Guan family. You know what happened next."

Everyone in the room swallowed. They halted their murmurs and looked at the person on the witness stand. "In due time, I...I followed his steps. Together, we locked up my brother in a private hospital while developing the drug. Lu Yin Ze is one of the victims of that drug."

Lu Yin Ze bit his lips. There were many complex feelings. He did not know what to feel first.

Anger, disbelief, and anxiousness.

Despite the shocking truth, Lu Yin Ze was worried for his brother. His brother was spilling it all. And this would not help his brother at all. It might even caused his brother to recieved a heavier punishment.

"Also, Mr. Luo Yang, the former head organizer of the IAmFashionista died due to the drug that Gunan put on his wine. I have no evidence for this. I did not record my conversation with Gunan at that time. But if you look at Mr. Luo's autopsy, the cause of his death was the same as my mother and the deceased Master Guan."

There were loud whispers.

Heavens! 16:49

They have remembered the death of Mr. Luo. The IAmFashinosita was delayed because of his sudden death. Everyone knows that he died due to health's reason. But it did not glazed on their minds that he could be posioned.

Xiong Zhi's eyes flickered. That time, she thought it was strange too. After Mr. Luo talked to her and inviting her as the next VVIP with anxiousness in his face, he died the next day.

Xiong Zhi always felt that this matter had something to do with the masked men which she found later on that those were Ming Zhi Yi and Lu Jin. However, she doesn't have evidence.

Now the truth finally came to light.

This confession had opened another closed case again. A drug was so potent that it was untracable. It might have killed many people without anyone knowing. No one could have this except the government. The authorities' interest on it had greatly increased in a large margin.

While the public's attention was on the potent drug again, Lu Jin did not wait for them to recovered.

He dropped another bomb.

"As a right hand man of Ming Zhi Yi, I have gathered many company's weaknesses that we could use against them. The major companies that had done illegal trading and dealings with us have all recorded by me. It is supposed to be untraceble so the investigation team won't find it. But Ming Zhi Yi and I keep it so we can make sure that we can wrapped those companies around our fingers."

Lu Jin signalled at Prosecutor Huo.

"This the list I kept. I hope this would help in your investigation towards these companies."

On the screen, the major companies who had done partnership with Ming Zhi Yi was plastered. Not only the illegal trading were recorded there. But also their dark side in which the public doesn't know about.

A large company committing arson to local citizen's houses just to buy their land. An employee committing suicide due to being the scapegoat of the company in an embezzling's case. Missing people from the rallying team and many more.

These were the cases that had never seen the truth of light and was forgotten. Ming Zhi Yi and Lu Jin had really dug deep to make sure these companies won't be able to get away from them. And now, it had been used in this way.

Those major companies should be seething in anger now.

On the audience side, Xiong Zhi and Linfeng glanced at each other. They have seen this list. That time, it greatly shock them. Now, it was the whole world's turn to be suprised.

The consequence of it would not be great. It would surely make the world upside down.
