Chapter 107: Family Feud
【No, this might be more than just the brat's prank; it's a family feud!】
【What do you mean?】
Su Yu's spirit jolts; she is no longer sleepy!
【The brat is a child of the Yin family. The Yin family has a hereditary reputation for being ruthless. They haven't appointed an heir yet, but in everyone's eyes, the one who inherits the estate is the eldest, Yin Boyan. The second son, Yin Bowen's current fiancée was secretly arranged by Yin Boyan. When Yin Bowen learned this, he felt some regret, but breaking up with his fiancée like that would make his previous resistance look like a joke, and people in the circle would say he is heartless and unprincipled.】
The current head of the Yin family and the matriarch especially dislike Yin Bowen's current fiancée.
So the utility brat showed up!
When the brat acted, Yin Bowen was dragged down by his fiancée, inadvertently offending many families and possibly losing any chance at the head position; Yin Boyan was satisfied.
Yin Boyan's scheme against Yin Bowen is about to be uncovered. Meanwhile, Yin Bowen and his fiancée have entered a cold war, about to end their relationship, and Yin Bowen is pleased.
The parents of the three brothers also hope to replace Yin Bowen with a thousand‑gold daughter from a noble family, and their parents are satisfied.
【The brat can be called an all‑purpose tool; everyone likes him!】
【The Yin family is really complicated. By comparison, our family is much simpler. But if grandpa hadn't died, that might be different.】
Ji Yan: …
「Xiao Yu, why aren't you sleeping yet? 」
「Right away! 」
Su Yu closes her eyes and falls asleep; Ji Yan tells Su Xi Su Yu's thoughts.
「I understand. 」
…
The next day, Su Yu is drafting an alternative plan when Liang Yan and Zhu Xueheng arrive again.
【Weren't the brat's antics already investigated? Why is it happening again?】
Su Xi is also puzzled.
「Good morning, little sister Xiao Yu! 」
「Good morning, Huo Huo! 」
Liang Yan smiles after greeting, buries his head in his backpack, arranging his homework and books one by one.
Su Xi puts down the document, 「Aren't you taking her to class? 」
Zhu Xueheng sets his backpack down, 「Give me a desk; I'll work here. Yesterday was a false alarm; today the wolf has come! 」
Su Xi asks Qin Tao to arrange a desk, then waits for Zhu Xueheng's reply.
Zhu Xueheng's reply is to pick up his phone and type quickly.
【Wulongcha, check what happened!】
【Got it!】
Is there even an upgraded version of this melodrama?
Su Yu absentmindedly doodles on the back of her backup plan while waiting for news from Wulongcha.
Liang Yan sees Su Yu seriously writing something, and she also does her homework earnestly.
【Host, it's truly melodramatic and explosive! The Yin family will stop at nothing for the heir's position!】
Su Yu looks around; the two adults are on their phones, Liang Yan is diligently doing homework. She exclaims to Wulongcha, 【Tell me quickly!】
【Didn't we already find that Yin Bowen and his fiancée were secretly matched by Yin Boyan? Yin Boyan used his own lover to arrange it.】
Yin Bowen discovered that the lover was also a teacher at the school. He told Yin Boyan's wife about it last night. She was furious and went to the school the next day to trouble that lover.
That lover was truly a naive girl. She could only cry. She cried to Yin Boyan, and the three of them caused a ruckus by the cafeteria.
Yin Boyan and his wife had a huge argument; in his agitation he carelessly tossed a cigarette butt, which landed on a gas outlet, causing the entire cafeteria to explode!
The three were injured by falling debris. Security rushed over, lifted them onto an ambulance and took them to the hospital. Fortunately, because of yesterday's incident, the cafeteria was empty, so there were no staff; thus those three were the only casualties in the whole school.
But the cafeteria explosion is no small matter; the school administration gave a day off, letting parents pick up their children.
【Wow, how did Yin Bowen find out about Yin Boyan's lover so quickly?】
Su Xi hears this thought, sighs inwardly, 「Yin Wei indeed still bears a grudge against the Yin family. He must be satisfied with the data he sent over. 」
【I don't know, but anyway Yin Bowen uncovered it. And Yin Boyan knows that Yin Bowen told his wife. Now the two have completely broken ties, and both of their reputations are ruined.】
【Harming the enemy by a thousand, self‑damaging by a thousand! If the Yin family is left to these two brothers, it will eventually collapse!】
Su Yu silently adds the Yin family to the cooperation blacklist. She looks at the unfinished backup plan in her hand and sighs quietly in her heart.
【Alas! If the Yin family's affairs were turned into gossip or a novel, many would read it. What a waste, that's all money!】
Su Xi doesn't think it's a loss. It's said that Yin Wei is already looking for a screenwriter, planning to invest in a TV drama. He believes Yin Wei will make good use of the Yin family's gossip.
Su Yu and Liang Yan spent the whole morning busy with their own tasks. After lunch, they changed clothes, sat on the bed to take a nap, and Liang Yan proactively asked Su Yu.
「Little sister Xiao Yu, you come to the office every day; aren't you bored? 」
「Not at all! 」
「But I feel a bit bored! 」
「Then what do you want to play? 」
「I want to go to your house to play. 」
「But I have to wait until after work to go home; would you like to come to my place for dinner? 」
「I can't go to your house; I have to visit great‑grandfather tonight. 」
【Old Liang, did he get so angry he ended up in the hospital?】
「Is he sick? 」
Liang Yan droops his eyebrows, 「If he's sick, that's good; he said he misses me and wants my parents to take me back to the Liang family. 」
【Why would your parents agree to take you back to the Liang family? Aren't they afraid that old man will lock you there and use you to threaten them?】
「Then you say you're sick. You don't like him, so you won't see him, and come back with me! Our family has a little clinic; just write a medical note, and no one can point out any problem! 」
Liang Yan was dazed, "Is this also okay?"
"Why not?"
"Then I'll go tell Dad!"
Liang Yan cheered, ran out and grabbed Zhu Xueheng's hand. A familiar face flashed into her view.
"Huh? Mom?"
Liang Yan leaned over to the computer and touched the screen.
Liang Lijiang stirred, "Huo Huo, it's Mom!"
"Mom, when are you coming back?"
"Mom's on the high-speed rail."
"Great!"
"Then when you come back, go find me at Xiao Yu's younger sister's house."
After saying that, Liang Yan turned to Zhu Xueheng and urged, "Dad, remember, I'm sick, I have to go to Xiao Yu's younger sister's house to see a doctor, so I won't go see Great-grandfather!"
"Okay, go take a nap quickly. Xiao Yu's younger sister should be waiting for you."
"Sure!"
Liang Yan ran off happily, and Liang Lijiang on the other side of the screen rubbed her brow.
Yongle said, "That old thing is a bit crazy. He can't hold on anymore, so don't go over there."
Zheng Yongle was the highest-ranking piece she had planted in the Liang family. If he ran, Liang Lijiang's side would receive even less news. If Zheng Yongle stayed in the Liang family, he might be killed by that crazy old thing. She weighed the pros and cons and ultimately decided to help Zheng Yongle escape the Liang family. His life was more important!
Zhu Xueheng also received Zheng Yongle's news: "Who got angry and went to the hospital? How come it's not that old thing?"
"Have the Investigation Agency under the Su Clan look into it again—if that old thing is still awake, I'm worried he'll cause trouble!"
Liang Chengwei, this good-for-nothing! With Yongle's help, he could have had perfect timing, location, and harmony, yet he actually couldn't beat that old thing!
Zhu Xueheng nodded, "Okay."
After hanging up the video call, Zhu Xueheng looked at Su Xi and said, "Buddy, do we have any more data that could stimulate that old thing?"
