Chapter 503 - [Bonus ]NOAH VISITED HAN YING WEI

Noah introduced himself, "Mr. Han, it's an honor to finally meet you. My name is Noah Ludwig. I was your wife, Qin Zheng's partner in work."

"What?"

"What?"

The father and daughter pair asked in unison. Han Luo was dumbfounded, and Han Ying Wei was surprised.

Noah knew he had lots to tell them – the secrets he had been hiding all these years. 

"I know that your wife Inspector Qin Zheng was a police officer. But we worked with the Chinese Secret Service. We worked on special missions when foreign countries were involved.

"I've worked with Inspector Qin for five years. I was her junior. Truthfully speaking, I had no future in the Secret Service, but Senior Qin took me under her wing.

"We never shared our personal information. I never knew you two existed. Sixteen years ago, we were trying to locate the drug dealers. That's when Senior Qing was murdered.

"That's when I got to know that she had a family. I won't hide the fact that it didn't surprise me. Under our Chief's order, I disguised myself as a butler and raised Xiao Luo."

Han Luo's one eyebrow rose. It must be the first time he mentioned her as Xiao Luo.

Noah continued, "My mission was to protect Xiao Luo and keep an eye on Mr. Han who was in a vegetative state. 

"Senior Qin's enemies tried to harm both of you in London multiple times. I did my best to prevent all that. Later, Xiao Yuan found out about the risks of the two of your lives. 

"Later, to save you both from the unknown enemy, he joined hands with Mu Feng, the famous mafia king of the European underworld. That's how he found out about my identity.

"Because of his assistance, my job became easier. Later, Xiao Luo got kidnapped and I lost contact with Xiao Yuan. I also ceased the investigation."

After he stopped, there was pin-drop silence in the room.

Han Luo didn't know how to react. It was too much information to digest.

She grew up with him. He took care of her. He always cleaned the mess she created.

It was hard for her to come to terms with the fact that he was her mother's colleague. 

'No wonder he knows karate so well. His self-defense skills are top-notch,' she thought.

Even so, thinking someone close to her mother stayed by her side for so long made her emotional.

Han Ying Wei was quiet. He was overwhelmed by all the information Noah just shared. 

Noah's eyes went from Han Ying Wei to Han Luo. He couldn't stand the silence. It was too much pressure.

He licked his lips and started, "Xiao Luo, if you are upset…"

Han Luo interjected, "I'm not upset. I'm just swamped. By the way, what were you investigating? Did big brother Yuan know about that?"

"You still call him 'big brother Yuan'? Shouldn't you call him 'husband' or 'hubby'?"

"I'm so used to calling him that, I can't just suddenly call him husband. I'm not used to it yet. Don't change the subject!" Han Luo vented. 

She expressed her anger and did her best to hide her embarrassment. She glared at Noah.

Noah raised her arms in surrender. 

"Oh, fine. Take your time. About my investigation, it was confidential until he found out my identity. However, I didn't disclose what I was investigating. I only told him that I was ordered to keep you two safe."

Han Luo expressed her displeasure, "If you shared the information with him, your investigation would have ended by now."

Noah shook his head. "I cannot do that. I have my orders. 

"Xiao Yuan isn't in my team. Even most of the Secret Service police officers don't know what I'm doing right now."

"What were you investigating then?"

"I was investigating your family."

"My family?" Han Luo instantly understood who he mentioned.

'Yes, since I groomed you, I knew that you weren't involved in any drug related activities. However, I had to make sure Xiao Ming and others were involved or not."

Han Luo shrugged. "We were only children at that time. How can we be addicted to drugs?"

"You may not have been addicted in the past, but it doesn't mean you won't be in the present. If someone in the family is involved in drugs, the children similarly get addicted to drugs. That's what my research says."

"So, you are saying that you suspect my relatives to be involved in drugs? That's impossible! Although Xiao Weiwei and Xiao Wanwan are not good to me, I'm pretty sure they are not involved in any drug cases."

"That's what you think."

Han Luo raised an eyebrow. She challenged him, "Do you have any proof? You cannot arrest anyone without proof and warrant."

"Before we go to that part, I need to ask Mr. Han a question." Noah's gaze shifted to Han Ying Wei. 

He inquired, "Mr. Han, the last time you were out for the family trip, who knew you were going there and what road you would choose?"

Han Ying Wei furrowed his eyebrows. "It's a common route to use the hilly tracks. We could take a boat, but we preferred a car. Our mansion wasn't a big one, but it had good security. Only our servants knew we took my car.

"As for the venue, we usually went there often since Luo'er loved that place. My family members, servants, and Assistant Tong already knew how obsessed Luo'er was with that place.

"Even so, people usually didn't know where we would go. I always decided on the spot. Therefore, only the three of us knew that we would go to that place on that day. Even the servants had no clue."

Noah tapped his right thigh with his index finger. "We did examine the burned down car after the accident. We could hardly inspect any unscathed parts. I'm not sure if there was any tracking device there." 

He took out some large size photos from the khaki envelope. He handed them over to Han Luo.

"These are the evidence we have left about the car accident. The case of the car accident is still unofficially open because Senior Qin had solid clues about the drug dealers. I need that information."

Han Luo checked the photos and shuddered as she spotted the broken pieces of their car and her mother's seat. 

She asked, "You keep saying drugs. What kind of drugs?"
