"I still couldn't help but look for my little Yan Ran…"
"I know," He Shen commented, pouring himself another drink. This time, he didn't drink it for a while, and let it stay as he continued the conversation with a question. "You're still investigating on how it happened?"
"Yes," Shufeng answered almost immediately. The forlorn in his eyes were present. Soon, it showed tears pooling in his eyes, but he knew too well not to cry since he knew that alcohol also made him more emotional and vulnerable. "I still couldn't believe it. I mean… how she is gone as if it were--"
"Planned?" He Shen finished, taking his shot and Shufeng nodding as his younger brother poured him his drink.
"Yes. Like it was planned," he agreed, drinking his whiskey. "I know that there was evidence. That Yan Ran's--" Shufeng couldn't finish the painful sentence. Years may have passed but the thought of her dead body shown to him is still etched fresh in his mind as if it were yesterday.
