"What did you say? Huachen ran away?" An angry voice sounded. He Yanshu's originally charming face was now covered with dark clouds. He asked, "Explain clearly, what do you mean by he ran away?"

Ling Quan also knew that he could no longer hide the matter, so he told everyone that he had locked Su Huachen in the basement for some time.

Originally, according to He Yanshu's order, they were to find a place to watch him and prevent him from getting into trouble. They didn't say to lock him up, let alone lock him up in a dark and damp place like the basement.

When He Yanshu thought about the suffering that Su Huachen had endured while locked up in the basement, he angrily punched Ling Quan and shouted, "Who gave you the courage to act on your own?"

Ling Quan was punched and bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, with a bloody smell of rust.

Ling Quan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood up, looked at He Yanshu, and asked, "Sir, do you remember how many years I have been with you?"

He Yanshu replied: "Five years."

"Yes, it's been five years. Time has passed so quickly." Ling Quan's eyes were a little empty, and he said with some memories: "For five years, I was chased by debt collectors. You saved me and paid off the debt. From then on, I swore to follow you and do things for you."

He Yanshu said with some pain in his voice: "It is because I trust you that I handed Su Huachen over to you at such a tense moment. I didn't expect that you would betray me."

Ling Quan asked again: "Do you still remember how many years Ling Wen and Ling Feng have been with you?"

He Yanshu froze in place.

Ling Quan said: "Seven years, they followed you for seven whole years, two years longer than I did."

"When it comes to loyalty, they are no less loyal than me." Ling Quan said with a bit of sadness and heaviness in his voice: "But they are dead."

"If they had sacrificed themselves to protect you today, I wouldn't have said a word. But they were killed by Su Huachen. They followed your orders to protect Su Huachen, but were killed by Su Huachen instead. Sir, are you really not sad at all about their death?"

He Yanshu staggered a few steps and leaned on the table. He stretched out his hand and pinched his brows, saying, "How can I not be sad? These days when they left, I couldn't sleep well every night. I had nightmares every night, dreaming about Ling Wen and Ling Feng."

The two of them were the first bodyguards selected and trained by He Yanshu from the orphanage.

During the years he lived in the He family, he always felt that he would be killed at any time.

So he went to the orphanage, picked out eight children, sent them for training, and finally two brothers of the Ling family successfully stood out.

The skills of the two men are no worse than Ling Quan's. If he hadn't sent them to protect Su Huachen, leaving them off guard, it would have been impossible for anything to happen to them with their skills.

That's why He Yanshu has nightmares every night, because he knows that he is also responsible for the deaths of Ling Wen and Ling Feng.

Ling Quan said, "You have nightmares because you feel guilty about the deaths of Ling Wen and Ling Feng. But no matter how guilty you feel, you will never punish Su Huachen again and will still indulge him. After you knew that he killed the Ling brothers, the way you took revenge on him was just to not contact him for a short period of time."

"You can't even bear to see him suffer, yet you let him move freely. Don't you know that Su Huachen is a psychopath? He hates An Chen to the core. In order to kill An Chen, he doesn't care how many people are implicated or how many people die."

He Yanshu said with a tired look in his eyes: "I will persuade him. I came here this time to persuade him, and then take him away to start a new life. He will not do bad things again in the future."

Ling Quan asked, "Sir, do you believe this?"

He Yanshu said: "No matter what, we must find Huachen first. It is very dangerous for him to be outside alone."

Having said that, He Yanshu was about to leave. After walking a few steps and hearing no movement behind him, he turned around and saw Ling Quan standing there motionless.

"Ling Quan?"

After He Yanshu finished shouting, he saw Ling Quan suddenly kneel down on his knees and said, "Sir, five years ago, when you saved me, you said, if you save my life, I will serve you for five years. Does this sentence still count?"

He Yanshu's eyes were filled with shock as he asked, "You want to leave me?"

"It was wrong of me to disobey your orders and lock up Su Huachen, but I don't regret it. With his vicious personality, if I let him go, he will only do more things that hurt people." Ling Quan's voice was a little suppressed, and he said word by word: "I know you can't let Su Huachen go, but I can't bear resentment towards him and continue to protect him at the same time."

He Yanshu stood there for a while before he replied with some difficulty: "I respect your choice."

Ling Quan kowtowed to He Yanshu, and then said, "Mr. He, please take care of yourself in the future."

He Yanshu walked out, feeling heavy and uncomfortable with every step, and his headache came back again.

Although Su Huachen ran away, He Yanshu could roughly guess where he went.

As a result, He Yanshu received an email on his mobile phone not long after he walked away.

When He Yanshu opened the email and checked the contents, his whole face changed.

He Yanshu staggered twice and almost fell down.
