My Dangerous Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1449: The IRS

Her second brother?

Startled by the unexpected piece of information shared with her, Lu Ning did not know how to react.

Yin Zhihan quirked his eyebrows, smiling suavely, “You’re free to let your second brother know that I kissed you. It’ll be interesting to see if he’ll arrest me.”

…

Lu Ning and Xiao Qiu boarded the small boat prepared for them and returned to shore. When they arrived at their respective rooms in the hotel they were staying in, the sight of their beds was such a sweet relief that they collapsed in bed with scarcely a thought to the contrary.

Yet, despite how tired she was, Lu Ning could not sleep.

So great was her concern for Zhihan’s wellbeing that sleep eluded her.

Lu Ning took out her phone and called her second brother, Lu Fan, but he had turned off his phone. It did not look like she was going to get ahold of her brother anytime soon.

Why would her second brother be in Macau?

Was he here on a mission?

If so, how did Yin Zhihan find out? Lu Fan was her own brother, and she could not claim to know where he was at all times. What more an outsider who bore no connection to him whatsoever?

Lu Ning felt the onset of a migraine. Why were all the men in her life keeping secrets from her? It was so frustrating.

The following day, Lu Ning was awoken by a series of loud beeps. Someone was calling her.

Pushing herself up from the awkward position she had been lying in, Lu Ning groped for her phone, which she found on the bedside table. She answered the call, still barely half-awake. “Hello…?”

“Lu Ning, are you still sleeping? Get up already! Something big has happened!” Xiao Qiu’s enthusiastic voice came from the other end.

Lu Ning rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, asking, “What’s the matter?”

“Last night, there was an intense battle on the President’s yacht. I heard a big-time drug lord was arrested. One of the drug dealers involved in the cartel happens to be Ann’s father. Even Ann was implicated in her father’s arrest!”

That woke her up. Lu Ning stumbled out of bed, shock being the predominant emotion driving her. “Xiao Qiu, what are you talking about?”

“Hah… Lu Ning, turn on your TV. It’s made the headlines! Every news channel worth their salt is reporting it now. I can’t explain it better than they can over the phone.”

Lu Ning quickly turned on the TV.

The newscaster was reporting headline news–

“… Last night, a drug lord codenamed ‘Ah Fu’ was arrested on a luxury yacht in Macau. The Chinese sent out their Chief of Special Forces, Lu Fan, who has been instrumental in the takedown of many similar criminal organizations these past few years. Chief Lu led an elite task force in a raid of the yacht, successfully apprehending the drug lord ‘Ah Fu’, the King of Gamblers, and several other persons of interest. A number of guests on board the yacht was injured during the struggle…”

The scene switched to an image of Lu Fan. It was her second brother!

She had not seen her second brother in almost two years.

Lu Fan was decked out in military fatigues. His uniform perfectly outlined his tall, rugged physique. The once unruly young man had transformed into an iron-willed soldier. His eyebrows were like a pair of glinting swords at his temples; His deep and chiselled features were as sharp and fierce as a cheetah. Anyone who had known him before would have been astounded by his transformation.

Lu Ning teared up with pride for her second brother’s accomplishments. In the years she had not seen him, his skin had taken on a bronze tan. He must have endured a lot to get to where he was today.

The newscaster continued —

“… the drug lord codenamed ‘Ah Fu’ has run rampant in the world for decades. New information has come to light since the arrest. According to information released by the Chinese government, most of the drug lord’s associates were members of high society. Using their identities, Ah Fu’s associates helped mask the multi-national cartel’s movements and expanding the organization’s reach across multiple countries. Experts estimate the number of individuals that Ah Fu’s capture could implicate could be in the thousands. More details of the drug lord’s arrest can be found on our website…

… It took the relevant departments six years of concerted effort to detain Ah Fu, and the most significant help came from the IRS.

Mr Brown, the genius behind the IRS, devoted his whole life to social security and charity. Everywhere Mr Brown went, countries would welcome him with open arms. Mr Brown, who has since been deceased for the past nine years, chose a remarkable successor before he passed away…”

A successor?

Lu Ning did not know what to make of the information she had just learnt.

At this moment, Xiao Qiu’s excited voice sounded again. “Ah Ning! Ah Ning! Did you hear that? The IRS. Oh my god! It’s the IRS!”

Lu Ning did not understand. “Xiao Qiu, what is the IRS?”
