Chapter 2231 The culprit is someone else
“President!”
Before Ye Wanwan could think about it more deeply, Third Elder pushed the door open and entered .
“What is it?” Ye Wanwan turned to Third Elder .
“President, there’s an old man here asking to see you by name,” Third Elder replied .
“By name?” Ye Wanwan was startled . Which name and which surname?
“He said he wants to see the old president’s granddaughter, Worriless Nie . ” Third Elder appeared to have guessed what Ye Wanwan was thinking .
“Got it . Bring him inside,” Ye Wanwan agreed with a nod .
A moment later, an elderly man walked into the office and examined Ye Wanwan for a long while .
“Leave,” Ye Wanwan said to Big Dipper and Third Elder .
They nodded and walked out of the office, closing the door behind them .
“Are you… really the old president’s granddaughter, Worriless Nie?” the elderly man inquired with a hint of misgiving .
“The genuine one,” Ye Wanwan answered .
“As they say, a girl changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood… You’re different than before . ” The elderly man sighed . “May I sit down?”
“Sit,” Ye Wanwan said .
The elderly man sat down on a chair before asking, “Worriless, do you still remember me?”
“May I ask who you are?” Ye Wanwan wrinkled her brows . She really didn’t have any recollection of this elderly man .
“Years ago, I was responsible for the inner security system in the Martial Arts Union . My name is Wang Lai,” the elderly man replied .
“Wang Lai…” Ye Wanwan looked pensive .
A moment later, her expression shifted . “You’re Uncle Wang?”
Back then, there was indeed a member named Wang Lai in the Martial Arts Union . When Ye Wanwan was bored, she frequently sought him out to get her hands on some gossip .
“That’s right, Worriless . I didn’t expect you to still remember me…” Wang Lai nodded .
“Why did you seek me out this time, Uncle Wang?” Ye Wanwan cut straight to the chase .
Wang Lai sank into silence and slowly began a long while afterward . “This matter… has been hidden in my heart for many years . I’ve actually been searching for you all this time . Thankfully, the Nie family recently announced that President Fearless was Worriless Nie, so I found out you were back . I visited the Fearless Alliance several times, but the Fearless Alliance was emptied, and I didn’t see you when I camped near the Nie residence . In the end, I heard you might be here…”
“Uncle Wang, let’s not beat around the bush . What is the matter?” Ye Wanwan asked .
“Worriless, it’s about the old president . ” Wang Lai sighed .
“Grandpa…?” Ye Wanwan looked at Wang Lai . “Tell me . ”
“Back then, the new president said you killed the old president… but actually, that’s not the case!” Wang Lai looked emotional .
Ye Wanwan frowned deeply . “That’s not the case?”
“Correct!” Wang Lai nodded with conviction . “Worriless, you did injure the old president, but the culprit who killed the old president was someone else!”
“Who?!” Ye Wanwan hastily pressed .
“I’m not certain about this part . ” Wang Lai looked sorrowful . “Back then, I was hiding in a secret spot and saw you running out then the old president followed you outside, covered in blood . I was really worried and wanted to dash toward him to check on his injuries… but suddenly, a mysterious person wearing a black robe appeared… It was him! He killed the old president!”
Ye Wanwan’s expression changed . Could it be… that black-robed man from the Direct Line?!
“Later, the new president acceded to the position… I wondered if it was the new president who killed the old president in order to get promoted… I was scared, so I withdrew from the Martial Arts Union… Sigh, it’s my fault for being too cowardly . If I had the courage to stand up and fight with the black-robed person back then, perhaps the old president wouldn’t have died… It’s all my fault!”
