Chapter 215: What Happened?

~7 min read 1,348 words

"It's not like I was the one who acted, so I shouldn't be the one to worry about this problem."

Su Xi enjoyed the spectacle. He only had someone privately reveal some incomplete truths. Every sentence was true. He can guarantee that the Qi family will be in chaos; how exactly they'll be chaotic depends on the strength of those few Qi children.

Su Yu thought of a question, "Uncle, should we tell Huo Huo's dad not to send expensive gifts?"

"I'll tell him!"

Ji Tianlin was still curious about how Ji Yan was lost back then.

Therefore, after Su Xi turned off the TV, he proactively apologized to Ji Yan.

"Jia Jia, dad is sorry to you!"

Holding Su Yu, Ji Yan suddenly tightened her grip, clutching her daughter, and looked at Ji Tianlin in terror. Did he report that incident upstairs?

Seeing his daughter's expression, Ji Tianlin knew she was twisting the story, "Dad left the Ji household, so we can't even trace how you were lost!"

Ji Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, that matter—no problem."

As long as the daughter wasn't sold, any other issue is trivial!

【Mom's reaction is so strange; is there a secret between them that I'm not aware of?】

Wulongcha boiled up to Su Yu's side, 【Do you want to know? If you do, I can go find out for you.】

【I don't want to! It's normal for Mom to have secrets; Mom would never hurt me, unlike Dad, that Backstab Knight!】

Backstab Knight Su Yi: Alright, alright, I owe you from my past life, right? You never forget to step on me!

Xu Mingyue originally feared that repeatedly bringing it up would upset her daughter. Now seeing Ji Yan doesn't care at all, she spoke about the progress over these years.

"We captured all the gangs that were active in Jingdu during those years, and only found one person who took the jade pendant from you. Through that person, we kept tracking down the whereabouts of other gangs. However, the people behind handled it very cleanly; we followed that trail for a long time and only recently located those people at that amusement park."

Looking at the report, they had ingested something poisonous. The mass poisoning was odd, like a murder cover‑up, and the clues were cut off.

After Ji Yan did a paternity test with them, the Xu family also investigated over there, and the results matched exactly what Su Xi gave.

That farming household also had no issues; they indeed sent away a girl about the same age as Ji Yan.

Both sides' leads were dead ends; Xu Mingyue and her group couldn't identify the mastermind.

If we go by Su Yu's account, the one who stole the child was Ji Xiaoling, which is plausible. Ji Xiaoling was about four or five back then, able to hold Jia Jia. The eldest family had both motive and means. Yet they found no evidence and couldn't make Ji Xiaoling and the others receive appropriate punishment.

【We just can't say it; otherwise we could have them investigate the Xiao family! They hadn't suspected the Xiao family because the Xiao family wasn't in Jingdu before, so they never thought the Xiao family helped Ji Xiaoling and the others.】

Xu Mingyue had previously had someone investigate, but found nothing abnormal.

Su Xi never considered looking into the Xiao family.

"Thank you, Mom! Thank you, Dad!"

Ji Yan didn't know what else to say beyond thank you. She was satisfied after learning the truth from Su Yu's heartfelt words. Revenge on Ji Xiaoling? She lacked the ability and didn't want to force her family to risk themselves for her. She cherishes her current life. As long as her family is fine, she's happy!

Xu Mingyue went over, holding Ji Yan, wanting to give her a hug.

Su Yu, being considerate, slipped out of Ji Yan's arms, aiming for her great‑grandmother.

Yang Zhichun patted Su Yu's little head and shot a glance at Su Yi beside him. "After all this time, your daughter still isn't close to you; aren't you reflecting on yourself?"

Su Yi looked at his elder brother, feeling aggrieved.

Su Xi pretended not to see, sent a message to Ji Tianlin to discuss how to investigate the Xiao family.

Su Yu was still pondering how to subtly hint to the family so she wouldn't stand out, but then Mom scooped her up.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Sweetie, you should go to sleep!"

"Hmm, let's chat a bit more~"

"But it's late, aren't you sleepy?"

"I can still hold on!"

【You wait, let me think!】

Su Yu said she would think, while Wulongcha just watched the commotion.

"Be good, time for a bath!"

Riding the elevator upstairs only takes a moment; Su Yu was carried back to her room and gave up. She really was sleepy.

【Fine, Mom doesn't care anyway!】

Since Mom doesn't mind, she'll just ignore it!

……

"Uncle Ye?"

Ye Shu sighed, "Xiao Yu, why did you come to the Ye family's company?"

Su Yu looked around puzzled, stepped back to the doorway, stared at the sign 【Xiao Su Zong: Su Yu】, and nodded solemnly.

【I'm right!】

While Su Xi went back to his office to fetch a document, he saw Su Yu alone at the doorway nodding and saying she was right. Could she be planning mischief again?

Just yesterday she had harshly criticized Ji Tianlin's beloved tea kettle from the tea mountain. If he hadn't stopped Su Yu in time, she would have tried to wash Ji Tianlin's kettle.

After realizing her mistake, she outwardly accepted it, followed Ji Yan's advice, and apologized to Ji Tianlin. Inside, however, she muttered to herself, letting Wulongcha search wildly online, muttering things that would make Ji Tianlin's blood pressure spike.

Given her usual temperament, she shouldn't be causing trouble today!

"Why aren't you going in?"

"Uncle, Uncle Ye went crazy, saying this is the Ye family's company!"

Zhu Xueheng had just stepped out of the elevator with Liang Yan and Tang Can, heard Su Yu's resonant shout, and clapped his hands!

"Impressive, Ye Shu is trying to ask you to help him but…"

You're courting death!

Besides his family, Su Xi values the company above all!

At regular gatherings, his brothers have to sit at the back; they simply can't compare to his company affairs.

Before Su Yu appeared, everyone thought this guy was going to take the company as his wife!

Now Su Yu's identity has been clarified, and everyone thought the same again! Su Xi is not only busy at the company herself, but also insanely exploiting the three‑year‑old child, making her work in the company!

"I think he might be dead in the next second!"

Su Yu said while nodding seriously. Ye Shu's condition was truly terrible! So terrible that Su Yu felt embarrassed to shout at him, and instead ran out herself to double‑check.

Zhu Xueheng hurriedly dropped the two children, "You go outside and play with little sister Xiao Yu, while we adults go in."

Zhu Xueheng went inside and saw that Ye Shu's condition was indeed bad. Su Xi, who entered afterward, feared Ye Shu might die there, and hurriedly sent an assistant to call the staff of the Su Clan medical room to see him.

"How about we take you to the hospital?"

Ye Shu strained to lift his eyelids and saw that the one asking was Su Xi, "Can I go to your home?"

"Sure!"

Su Xi had a Su Clan doctor examine Ye Shu, determined that he was merely exhausted, and then had the assistant drive him back to the Su Family.

"But after being away for a while, Ye Shu looks as if someone has sucked his yang energy!"

Zhu Xueheng was very curious about what exactly had happened.
