Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 443 - 319. Whose deep affection speaks few words (Part 1 of 3)
Police station.
Luo Xiansheng walked in and raised an eyebrow: "You said you wanted to chat with me, and it turns out you’ve brought me back to the police station for a chat? Yanqing, you could’ve just said you’re bringing me back for a statement recording, no need to be so tactful!"
Tang Yanqing squinted: "You’re so agitated, could it be you’re nervous? Only those who’ve done something illegal would truly fear entering a police station."
Luo Xiansheng fell silent, examining Tang Yanqing from head to toe: "Then bringing me back today, you must be very confident."
Tang Yanqing tilted his head: "Do you hate me? But I must tell you, you’ve already been sentenced to ’death’ by my elder sister, and what I’m doing now could be your last chance. You know my sister’s temperament, you know the nature of both our families, so neither you nor my elder sister have a future if anything happens."
This was the first time Tang Yanqing spoke so clearly in front of Luo Xiansheng.
Luo Xiansheng stared intently at Tang Yanqing: "Looks like you know everything?"
Tang Yanqing headed to the interrogation room first, taking long strides without turning back: "... I’ve learned enough."
Luo Xiansheng watched Tang Yanqing’s back, taking a deep breath, eventually following.
.
"First tell me about this person. How did he enter your company, and what’s your relationship with him? Don’t play official, I want the truth."
Tang Yanqing pressed a photo of Father during a performance onto the table, pushing it toward Luo Xiansheng.
Luo Xiansheng took a deep breath: "What about him? He’s just a conductor for a small orchestra under me. That orchestra isn’t an important group under me, so I haven’t paid much attention to it."
"Seems you’re still trying to circle around me." Tang Yanqing pinched his fingertips: "If this orchestra isn’t important, why do you keep them in the interlayer only accessible by your elevator? Don’t tell me it’s for facilitating their rehearsals. You know, I won’t believe it."
Tang Yanqing spoke and took out another photo of Father, gently placing it on the table, leaving it at a distance from Luo Xiansheng.
This photo shows Father at Yanwu Square, captured by a recording device once strapped under Shi Nian’s skirt. Although somewhat blurry, it’s recognizable at first sight.
Luo Xiansheng’s face turned pale.
Tang Yanqing stared into his eyes: "... I haven’t said it outright, not because I don’t know, but because I’m giving you a chance to speak up."
Luo Xiansheng continued to stare at Tang Yanqing, finally closing his eyes in desperation: "It really is you. I once thought the Black Spade 7 inside there looked like you, but I always harbored hope that I was mistaken."
"You weren’t mistaken, and neither was I." Tang Yanqing gazed intensely at him: "Tell me, why did you enter Yanwu Square?"
Luo Xiansheng took deep breaths, fists clenched. It was [a desperate gamble].
"So what if it’s true? Besides, why ask why? I’m like other guests, just fond of little girls, isn’t that allowed?"
"I acknowledge that by doing this I’ve broken the law, I admit it, just formally arrest me!"
"You asked about Father? Alright, I’ll tell you, it’s because I wanted to enter Yanwu Square that I agreed for Father to join my orchestra, in exchange. Who let him occasionally tire of his nighttime role, and even want a normal life during the day?"
"What else do you want to know? Ask everything, I’ll tell you right now! Also, about Meng Chuyan, right? Well, let me tell you... Meng Chuyan initially recommended herself on Starry Sky Network, later Father recommended her to me, saying she has good potential and could be promoted."
He spoke recklessly, firing off everything like a machine gun.
Tang Yanqing instead let out a slow breath: "No defense for yourself, just throwing everything into the spotlight? Little Sound, if Grandpa Luo finds out, he’ll surely be furious at you."
Luo Xiansheng’s eyes dimmed: "I’ve confessed everything, all I ask is: temporarily keep this from my family. And with the media too, don’t let them make trouble."
Tang Yanqing rested his elbow on the armrest, fingertip touching his temple, his demeanor completely devoid of previous seriousness.
"You ask me for such a favor, I can help; but the condition is, Little Sound, you must tell me the truth."
"Look at the state you’re in now? Heroic, facing death with composure... Or harshly put, like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water. You may want to be a dead pig, but you take me for a pig brain too? Would I believe you?"
Luo Xiansheng was suddenly startled, witnessing his shock: "You don’t believe? Your suspicion was precisely this, wasn’t it? Otherwise, why would you go to great lengths to enter the interlayer of my company, have to stay close to Meng Chuyan?"
Tang Yanqing raised an eyebrow: "I know you’re exceptionally smart. I initially suspected this, but your ’confession’ actually absolves the previous suspicions. You’re not the one I’m looking for, though Little Sound, you’ve been my friend since childhood, still can’t replicate my former ’scum-like’ demeanor."
Tang Yanqing spoke and leaned forward: "You’re doing it for someone else."
Luo Xiansheng’s face went bloodless immediatel—more nervous than when accused directly by Tang Yanqing—: "I haven’t! Yanqing, don’t think wildly!"
This kind of reaction from Mr. Luo actually confirmed Tang Yanqing’s worries.
He sighed, sitting back down, lowering his head to only look at his fingertips.
"Little Sound, you know, my disagreement with my elder sister was also about this. I actually wavered, not wanting to face my elder sister directly; so when you went, I was really thrilled. I thought I could finally avoid direct confrontation with my sister, just asking you."
"But apparently I was wrong, you didn’t tell me the truth, so I’ve got nothing. I’ll have to stop talking to you and find my elder sister to talk instead."
Luo Xiansheng’s eyes bulged: "Yanqing, what do you mean ’talk to Da Sheng’? Talk to me, come on! Whatever you want to talk about, I’ll tell you, isn’t that enough?"
"I believe your sincerity," Tang Yanqing’s eyes were slightly cold, yet filled with deep sympathy: "But you can’t tell me the truth. Because the truth, you don’t know either. Because the whole story actually has nothing to do with you."
Tang Yanqing spoke while standing up, adjusting his sleeves as he prepared to leave.
Luo Xiansheng clenched the edge of the table with both hands: "What are you doing? Going to see Da Sheng? Stop, don’t go bothering her!"
Tang Yanqing ignored him, heading straight to the door.
Luo Xiansheng yelled in despair: "... She’s unrelated. My matter’s unrelated to her, why bother her?"
"Dare say it’s unrelated to my elder sister?" Tang Yanqing swiftly turned back, gaze pounding heavily on Luo Xiansheng: "See your performance just now, even martyrdom is considered, not caring for Grandpa Luo’s health!—In this world, aside from my elder sister, who else would you foolishly sacrifice for like this? You dare say it’s unrelated to her?!"
Luo Xiansheng closed his eyes, face full of despair.
His feelings for Da Sheng... could never be hidden from Yanqing.
Tang Yanqing took a deep breath: "I know you’re covering for my elder sister, I’ve long known she hides things from us. I don’t blame her, I just want to help her bear the burden. Whatever it is, I’m willing to help. But the condition is you have to tell me what’s truly going on, once I know the context then I can know what steps to take!" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Luo Xiansheng couldn’t open his eyes, couldn’t face this Tang Yanqing.
He could only take deep breaths while asking: "... How much, have you already learned?"
Tang Yanqing turned his head: "Zan Hua and Xiao Kai, these two children weren’t illegally adopted by my elder sister, I’m worried they’re actually stolen and smuggled from Asia by my elder sister herself. She collects antique furniture, rescues relics, and needs large crates to store those items. It’s no problem to squeeze a few kids into the gaps of the crates, so I’m worried it’s not just Zan Hua and Xiao Kai, she might have smuggled many other kids as well!"
In M Country, those illegal private adoption agencies, where do they get their kids from? Similarly, how did those little girls in Yanwu Square get into M Country? There must be a method of transportation involved, and that method must have a legitimate facade, to avoid suspicion, thus achieving such a high success rate in smuggling.
My elder sister, being a Tang Family member, with the protection of a legal family status, customs and airport inspections would lower their guard; moreover, her partnership with Huangfu Huazhang in relic rescue is well known, even the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has publicly thanked the two of them, so the large boxes she brings back would appear adorned with a halo. Furthermore, relics often resist modern ray inspection, allowing them to evade many modern scanning devices, ensuring children within the boxes won’t be detected...
Tang Yanqing finished and stared intensely at Luo Xiansheng: "You discovered this too, didn’t you?"
"You pay more attention to my elder sister than I do. Maybe her subtle actions I hadn’t noticed, but you’re more perceptive. Because you discovered these anomalies, you started suspecting, then went to Yanwu Square to verify all of this, isn’t that so?"
