Chapter 366 Mother and Son Reunited

She was not dead!

At this moment, Jiang Yi was indescribably happy and excited, as well as saddened.

He had never thought his mother was still alive.

The events of those years flashed before his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Manager Yang asked.

"Nothing!" Jiang Yi said quickly.

Manager Yang's brows furrowed slightly, his sharp gaze fixed on Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi knew that Manager Yang must be starting to suspect him.

His emotions had fluctuated too much just now!

Now, he had to find a way to cover it up, otherwise, he might reveal his true colors, and Manager Yang might even find another assassin to carry out this mission again.

"I just find it a bit strange!"

Jiang Yi said, "This woman is just an ordinary person. Any assassin can handle her. I am an eighth-level assassin. You want me to kill such an ordinary person. Isn't that overkill?"

"This woman has a special identity. Completing the mission perfectly isn't just about good skills! I'm assigning this mission to you to train you. Sometimes, as an assassin, you don't necessarily have to do it yourself!"

Manager Yang continued, "Remember, in this mission, neither you nor Shi Jin can act directly. You must use your brains and find other ways to complete the task!"

"Okay!"

Jiang Yi nodded.

Shi Jin also nodded along.

"This is a test for you, and also a test for the company. Don't disappoint me!" Manager Yang said.

"Don't worry, I will definitely disappoint you."

After speaking, Jiang Yi left Wanhui Company with the documents.

At the company entrance, Jiang Yi opened the document bag and looked through it carefully.

He quickly found his mother's address and her workplace.

She was currently a supervisor at a cosmetics company.

"This woman's name is Li Ping. Do you think she's a good person or a bad person?" Shi Jin asked Jiang Yi.

"She's definitely a good person!"

Jiang Yi said, "Because she's my mother."

Hearing this, Shi Jin was stunned on the spot!

"Mr. Jiang, don't joke around. How could she be your mother? That's too much of a coincidence!" Shi Jin said.

"I'm not joking, and I'm not lying to you!"

Jiang Yi said, "This matter is of great importance. Don't tell anyone. I trust you, that's why I'm telling you so much."

Seeing that Jiang Yi didn't seem to be joking, Shi Jin quickly nodded.

Shi Jin scanned the surroundings. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he quietly asked Jiang Yi, "What should we do now? If we don't act, Manager Yang will definitely not let me off."

"I have a way!" Jiang Yi smiled slightly.

Upon hearing that Jiang Yi had a way, Shi Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Jiang Yi drove to the cosmetics company where Li Ping worked.

At this hour, she should be at work.

Jiang Yi was eager to see Li Ping now, wishing he could fly there immediately.

An hour later, Jiang Yi arrived at the entrance of the cosmetics company.

Jiang Yi hesitated, planning to wait outside until work ended.

If he rushed in to find her now, it would surely attract a lot of attention.

Around five in the afternoon, people from the cosmetics company got off work, and employees began to walk out of the company gate one after another.

Jiang Yi's gaze continuously scanned these people.

Soon, Jiang Yi saw a familiar face.

It was a woman in her forties, with a kind face and an indescribable aura.

This woman was none other than Jiang Yi's mother, Li Ping.

The moment he saw Li Ping, Jiang Yi's eyes welled up. After so many years, he finally saw that familiar face again.

This wasn't a dream!

It was real!

He had finally seen his mother again.

Every move she made was still so familiar.

Jiang Yi opened the car door and got out.

Li Ping also saw Jiang Yi and froze on the spot.

Although many years had passed and Jiang Yi's appearance had changed greatly, Li Ping recognized him at a glance as her biological son.

"Son..."

Li Ping hugged Jiang Yi tightly.

Tears had already streamed down Li Ping's face.

After a long time, Li Ping finally let go of Jiang Yi.

"This is not a place to talk. I'll take you home!" Li Ping said, her eyes vigilantly scanning their surroundings. Su Dan Xiaoshuo Wang.

"Okay!"

Jiang Yi nodded. "Get in my car!"

Li Ping got into Jiang Yi's car.

"Who is she?"

Li Ping looked at Shi Jin and asked.

"He's a friend of mine. He's trustworthy, don't worry!" Jiang Yi said.

Hearing this, Li Ping finally felt at ease.

Jiang Yi started the car and drove onto the street.

Jiang Yi had many things he wanted to say to Li Ping, but he didn't know where to start.

Soon, the car arrived at the residential area where Li Ping lived.

"Shi Jin, we want to talk privately. You wait for me outside!" Jiang Yi said to Shi Jin.

"Okay!"

Shi Jin nodded.

Back at the apartment, Li Ping poured Jiang Yi a cup of tea, took a deep breath, and then said, "You should go! Don't come looking for me anymore!"

"Why? After so many years, I finally found you, and you want to drive me away!" Jiang Yi frowned and said.

"I'm living well now! I don't want anyone to disturb me! I'm used to being alone!" Li Ping said.

Jiang Yi's heart was filled with confusion.

He hadn't expected her to be so indifferent to him.

But soon, Jiang Yi understood what was going on!

She had been hiding from the pursuit of that assassin organization, which was why she had never looked for him and Xiao Xin over the years, fearing that they would be implicated.

"Don't worry, I can protect you!"

Jiang Yi said, "I've already found the assassin organization that was hunting you. The events back then were all orchestrated by this assassin organization. I'm planning to destroy this assassin organization now."

Hearing this, Li Ping's brows furrowed, her face filled with worry.

"It seems you've investigated quite a bit!" Li Ping said.

"I have indeed investigated a lot, but there are still many things I haven't clarified. I want to know, who hired this assassin organization to harm you!" Jiang Yi asked.

This was a question Jiang Yi still hadn't figured out.

"It was your uncle!"

Li Ping said, "Your grandfather's ancestor founded a very powerful commercial family in the United States back then. This family possessed immense wealth and supreme power. After your grandfather passed away, your uncle became the head of the family and controlled the entire Jiang family. To consolidate his power, he wanted to eliminate anyone who threatened his status, position, and authority. Your father's existence was the biggest threat to him."
