Chapter 441: Chapter 441 The Best Future (1)_1

In the private room left with only Zhang Te, the atmosphere instantly chilled.

Zhang Te, as if stunned, remained in one position sitting on the sofa for a while. Then he turned his gaze slowly towards the small pill bottle on the table.

Although the creature, sounding neither human nor beast, didn’t tell him what the medicine was, he thought it certainly couldn’t be anything good.

Thailand... The androgynous creature wanted him to lure Mr. Han to Thailand. They were probably after Mr. Han’s life!

They truly were relentless... So many years have passed, yet they still wouldn’t give up... Especially this year, their actions have been particularly frequent. From the power outage at the elevator maintenance company three months ago, to the abduction of Mr. Han along with his wife on his birthday, and now this... This was the third time, right? Three times... The more actions taken without absolute certainty, the more flaws exposed. They were unusually impatient because Mr. Han successfully expanded the Han Family enterprise, I suppose they couldn’t just standby anymore!

But this time, they actually presented him with a huge dilemma – saving his mother’s life on one hand and Mr. Han’s life on the other...

Zhang Te gave a scoff that was half cold, half bitter. He then picked up the liquor on the table and swallowed his sorrows.

Zhang Te didn’t know exactly how much he had drunk. All he knew was that the more he drank, the clearer his mind became - so clear that even those long-forgotten memories from many years ago were now vividly reappearing in his brain.

He came from a humble background. His father, a long-distance trick driver, died in an accident when he was very young, leaving him and his uneducated and unemployed mother to fend for themselves.

To make ends meet, his mother set up street stalls, collected scrap, and even begged... She did all sorts of humble things. But no matter how hard she strained herself, she never let him endure any hardship. As far as he could remember, he was always fed and clothed. Even when it came to schooling, his mother never let him miss a day.

At first, he was oblivious to his mother’s hardships. It was not until he was seven and had forgotten to bring his homework book home that he saw his mother eating a plain bun with water... Only then did he realize that his mother, who always told him she had eaten, had not in fact eaten at all. He would be served rice and dishes, while his mother would split a bun in two to eat.

The most memorable event from his life with his mother was his fifth year in primary school. His mother went to school to pay his tuition. In a black plastic bag, she had filled it with money. There were red banknotes, green ones, and even coins... Some notes were new, some old.

Just the sight of that money made him feel his mother’s hardships. By fifth grade, he was a young man already. He couldn’t bear watching his mother struggle any longer. He said he wouldn’t go to school anymore... He had never been beaten by his mother before, but for saying that he would quit school, she slapped him hard in front of everyone at school.

The one who pulled him and his mother out of poverty was Granny Han of the Han Family. The Han Family’s enterprise had always been involved in charity work. In his second year of junior high, his mother fell ill after enduring many years of hardship. Without money for her treatment... It was during such a hopeless time that he received financial aid from the Han Family enterprise.
