Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 358
Quin Lin wasn't sure what emotions she felt when they told her these things about her parents. She had too many emotions and doubts. She couldn't tell what kind of feelings she had in her heart.
Then, Fade Chen asked Francesca Sun and the others to leave. He returned to his Long City's residence with his wife and prepared a bowl of Chinese medicine for her to recuperate from the revelations. He asked his wife to take the medicine and rest well for one day.
The next day, official news that Edward Sun had taken over the Sun Family's businesses started to spread. Everyone was talking about this matter. Francesca, the other elders and important members of the Sun Family, as well as most of the major shareholders, stepped forward to support Edward.
With the collaborations of Latifah Gong, Yanko Shi and the other masters and important personages, Edward's position became quite firm. Almost without any opposition, he took over the position of the supervising leader of the Sun Family's businesses.
As for Shinnie Sun, Edward's daughter, her position and status rose with him as well. Originally, she was just an insignificant descendant of the Sun Family. However, she was now a famous young madam of a rich and powerful family in Long City. Therefore, she was now admired by many people.
Such attention caused this young girl to feel uncomfortable, and she specifically ran to Quin and Fade's house to avoid being harassed by others.
At home, with Shinnie's company and the medicine brewed by Fade, Quin's emotions became stable.
Fade and Quin also started to talk about her mother, Chrystal Xie. Francesca had told Fade about the places where Chrystal had traveled to in the past, as well as clues and other evidence that she had left behind before her departure.
If Quin wanted to investigate in detail the news regarding her mother, Fade would be willing to accompany her in this journey, even if it meant that he needed to leave everything behind.
However, just as Quin was hesitating whether to venture out and investigate this matter, a message was sent to her phone which caused Quin to feel nervous all of a sudden.
The contents of the message were very simple, with only one sentence and a photo.
The sentence was: Come to Fuma Town within this three days, or he will die!
The sentence was accompanied by a picture of Quin's elder brother, Jeremy Lin. He was tied up in a dilapidated hut. Looking at this photo, Jeremy had many scars on his body, and his head was bloody. He seemed close to death.
At the sight of this message, Quin's body trembled. She almost flung the phone in her hand.
When Fade saw this message, he couldn't help but frown. Jeremy was friends with Howard Zhang and his companions. At that time, he had colluded with them to force Quin to marry Howard.
On the night of the wedding in the hotel, Fade had killed Howard and Shancus Wan. He taught many people the lesson they deserved. Since then, Jeremy had disappeared. Later, Fade and Quin sent people to look for him, but there was no news about him.
Therefore, the both of them didn't pay much attention to this matter. After all, Jeremy didn't regard Quin as being part of his family. Moreover, at that time, Fade and Quin also believed that Jeremy was afraid. He was afraid that Fade would give him a beating, so he ran away and hid by himself.
However, Fade didn't expect that almost half a year later, news on Jeremy would appear again. Apparently, he wasn't running away by himself, and his news came to them in this manner.
Evidently, the person who had sent them this message wanted Quin to go to Fuma Town. Whether they intended to blackmail her for money, discuss business transactions, or harbor other ulterior motives, it was impossible for them to judge the situation just based on this single photo and sentence.
Therefore, Quin was now facing a dilemma. Should she take the risk to save her useless elder brother?
If it was up to Fade, he would definitely not want his wife to take the risk to save such a guy. After all, ever since Fade met Quin, Jeremy had not done anything good. It would be better for such a person to be dead.
However, Quin and Jeremy were brother and sister after all. In addition to this, she had just learned about their parent's history, so Quin was feeling sensitive about her relationship with her family members at this time. Quin also spotted the bracelet left by her mother on Jeremy's wrist, which caused her to feel even more shocked. Therefore, she decided to take the risk and try to save her indecent brother. Since his wife had made up her mind, Fade was supportive of her decision. Therefore, he made arrangements for the work matters that were pending and passed them over for others to manage. After gathering some information, he set out with Quin on the journey to Fuma Town.
Fuma Town was 1000 kilometers away from Long City. Fade and Quin flew by plane to a nearby city, and took a train to the city where Fuma Town was located. Finally, they arrived at the bus station of that city and rushed toward Fuma Town.
It was burdensome and tiring for Quin to travel by plane,take a train, and travel by car through this long journey. Therefore, Fade allowed Quin to lean on his shoulder. He covered her clothes carefully and let her fall asleep.
Fuma Town was not a prosperous town. When the car drove away from the city center, the road became bumpy. The car swayed so much that many passengers felt dizzy. Some of them even opened the window and threw up.
Some of them were very excited. They took out their cell phones and cameras and began to take pictures of the scenery on the roadside.
Then, Fade noticed something. Although Fuma Town was not large, its scenery was quite unique. Occasionally, they would see picturesque mountains, clear flowing rivers, tiny ridges, houses with tiled roofs among green trees, fertile farmland and grazing cattle. The scenery was leisurely and rustic, evocative of the countryside. It looked like a pleasant tourist attraction.
Moreover, most of the passengers in the car seemed to come from other places, and many of them were well-dressed businessmen.
"There are so many foreigners here. No wonder the locals didn't react much when they noticed my wife and I," Fade thought to himself. Then, he saw that the car was entering a road with lush surroundings along the mountainside.
There was a large sign beside the mountain road, with the words "Fuma Town" written on it. Next to it, a bright red banner was hanging there. On it was written, "A very warm welcome to the business investment team arriving at Fuma Town for their research and investigation."
As soon as he saw this banner, Fade immediately understood why these businessmen in the car were there. They seemed to be part of a business investment team.
As for the contents of the investigation and research, Fade faintly remembered something. When he searched for news on Fuma Town online, he learned that the town was going to build a tourism resort on the famous Fuma Mountain. The town board was actively engaged in this project, trying to attract more investors.
"Why did the other party choose to send that message to us during this period of time? Did they do so to cover their tracks, or do they have some hidden purpose?" Fade thought to himself.
Just as Fade was contemplating this matter, the car slowed down, turned into a corner, and drove into a road with lush trees along the way. The scene in front of them was full of greenery and they were close to nature. The people from the city couldn't help but be surprised. They took out their cell phones and cameras and began to take pictures.
