Chapter 304 Success
Wang Ruo or Long Die gulped at the coordinates that kept on flashing on the screen in front of them. She only has two words in her mind, as it seemed to stop processing the other thoughts-Li Qiang.
The coordinates were exactly Li Qiang’s mansion location. She couldn’t help but stare at her daughter, who was seriously staring at the tablet that showed the visual information broadcasted by the drone. Then, her gaze landed at Fu Jin, who was also coincidentally staring at her. She could see the guilt in Fu Jin’s eyes. She too, felt the same way, in fact, watching Jiang Yue like that made her feel very guilty, she wanted to just run to her daughter and hug her, tell her that she was here, standing just beside her.
She lowered her head as a determination flashed in her mind. Tonight, she would tell Jiang Yue the truth.
On the other side, Jiang Yue was frowning while staring at the video in front of her. She activated the X-ray vision once again. Yet, there was no one, who looked suspicious inside Li Qiang’s mansion. She couldn’t help but wonder if her mother was really with Li Qiang.

She let out a sigh before biting her lips in an attempt to suppress her tears. Maybe, her imagination had really gone too wild. Maybe, her instincts were wrong this time. Maybe, her mother really died in that car crash.
"Alright! It seems that it was a success," she said after composing herself. The other members couldn’t see what was on the tablet. Everyone immediately nodded their heads and cheered for her. Everyone, except Fu Jin.
Fu Jin slowly patted her back and kissed the nape of her neck. He was trying to comfort her... or maybe, himself. At that point, Fu Jin had already decided to tell Jiang Yue about Wang Ruo. He had once promised not to keep any secrets from her.
Jiang Yue decided to celebrate their success and bought some food and beverage for everyone working in Wang Empire. Although no one, aside from her own team, was aware of that achievement, she wanted everyone in Wang Empire to celebrate her success.
The celebration lasted for a few hours before Jiang Yue and Fu Jin, as well as her team, went back into her office to make final preparations for the trip to M Country.
"What’s wrong?" Jiang Yue asked Long Die when she noticed that the latter did not leave alongside everyone else.
"I have something important to tell you." She said before stealing a glance at Fu Jin.
"You are making me nervous." Jiang Yue smiled and scoffed. "What is it?"
Long Die did not answer her. Instead, she went to Jiang Yue’s door and locked it, as well as the blinds in her office.
Her strange behavior instantly earned a raised eyebrow from Jiang Yue. Why was Long Die behaving so strange now? Jiang Yue couldn’t help but think if this was the time when the latter would inform her about the reason why she was afraid of M Country.
"This serious?" she jokingly said when Long Die came back to her seat.
"Yes." Long Die nodded before slowly taking off her wig, revealing her black bob hair. That earned a surprised gasp from Jiang Yue.
Without saying anything, Long Die just smiled at Jiang Yue before slowly dampening the prosthetics make up with a wet tissue. Then, she slowly removed it.. revealing a face that could have rivaled Jiang Yue’s.

"You..." Jiang Yue was unable to say anything. She was honestly speechless. Her mother... Wang Ruo... was sitting across her. She was smiling, as tears started spilling from her eyes.
The duo just looked at each other, without saying anything. Both were crying, unable to voice out the words they had, running in their minds.
"Mom...?" Jiang Yue said before getting up from her chair.
"Yue..." Wang Ruo’s voice was hoarse, the voice of Long Die, who was almost always trembling, was gone. "I’m sorry." action
Jiang Yue’s tears instantly burst onto her cheeks, the moment she heard her mother’s words. It was as if the word was able to reach the depths of her heart. Tugging it, opening the deepest pain that she felt when her mother had left her. Jiang Yue did not remember running towards Wang Ruo’s arms. All she remembered was her mother’s arms wrapping around her, the moment she started crying.
Her chin trembled, as she buried her face on Wang Ruo’s shoulder. All the walls that she had built when her mother died collapsed, as her emotions poured out. Her mother was alive.
