Chapter 60: Zhu Family

~7 min read 1,362 words

Meng Xianle thought that Zhu Xueheng is also generous. He extremely hopes that the child from the Liang Family is Zhu Xueheng's. In that case, for his wife and child, he would definitely have to buy the Liang Family's information! He could then take that information out to exchange for money, and it wouldn't be a wasted investigation!

Su Xi carefully looked over the picture. The matters involved in the picture have little to do with the Su Family.

Su Xi: Wait for him to decide

Su Xi saw the butler send a message and hurriedly opened it.

Butler: We're already on the vehicle!

Su Xi: Okay

……

In the ward, Zhu Xueheng looked up at the person who entered.

"Xiao Yu and sister‑in‑law have gone back. They left only a short while ago; you can still catch up now."

"I know. Need any help?"

Su Xi was deliberately avoiding Su Yu; he didn't want to tell Su Yu who he was visiting.

"No need, the law will punish him."

Zhu Xueheng asked the care worker to help arrange his discharge.

Zhu Xueheng is confident that even if he doesn't touch Zhu Wenhua, that other woman will ruin him. If betrayed by that other woman, Zhu Wenhua might even die of anger.

Su Xi sat on the sofa, handling the company's documents on his phone.

After receiving the discharge summary and similar papers, Zhu Xueheng twirled the lollipop in his hand and forced a smile, "I'll give Su Yu her welcome gift next time."

"Maybe not needed; the one from the Liang Family is still under investigation."

Liang Family? The lady of the Liang Family, Liang Lijiang? He did indeed follow her for a long time, but in the end, because his parents got involved, she dumped him.

"Didn't she say the child's father is foreign? How do you know?"

Liang Lijiang's daughter was born with natural blonde hair. After she dumped Zhu Xueheng, she dated several European and American stars, so no one doubted her claim.

"Her mother is foreign, the father is a not‑obvious mixed‑blood; isn't intergenerational inheritance a bit abnormal?"

Someone in the Liang Family let the slip, and none of us who heard it went to investigate. Back then you two acted as if you were dead to each other, and with your parents meddling, uncovering it would only make your situation more awkward.

Today, seeing how sad you were reminded me, so I went to check. Looking at the photos, the facial features still resemble yours a bit.

Zhu Xueheng saw the picture Su Xi forwarded and instantly got excited. He wanted to rush over to ask Liang Lijiang, but he quickly thought of that little girl's impressive achievements and became deflated.

"She might not want to acknowledge me as her father."

That little girl is also a well‑known figure in the circle. When she was in kindergarten, she quarreled with a child taught by Liang Liying.

Those people mocked her for having no father, but she proudly told everyone she simply doesn't have a permanent dad! She could have a new dad each week; last year she had twenty dads—who can have more than her?

Among the children present, none actually had more dads than she did.

That day, she even shouted in front of all the kids that her new dad had brought all the gifts previous dads gave her to the kindergarten, pulling each out to flaunt before the whole class.

She also said she would push her mother to secure a new dad every day—are any other kids as impressive as her?

So the kids went home wanting to have more dads.

After the children were collectively beaten, the adults learned of Liang Lijiang's daughter's "grand ambitions," and Liang Lijiang's reputation worsened.

Back then the Liang Family also used this incident to block Liang Lijiang's inheritance claim.

Zhu Xueheng sighed, "If she acknowledges me, I definitely won't let her have another dad. She might be unwilling."

"That's the issue you need to consider."

"She's your daughter, not mine. Su Xi is already busy with his younger brother's daughter, and doesn't want to look after his brother's daughter too."

"If you're taking care of a child, don't bring it over to me; ours are also a handful."

Su Yu is only three years old and already dares to think about killing, and now she's mixed with a rebellious, capable girl; one dares to think, the other dares to act. Su Xi can't imagine how dark his future will become with these two together!

Zhu Xueheng thought as he went downstairs. If he wants to take the child openly, he must deal with the child's mother. He had a good idea: "If I give her the company, will she agree?"

In Zhu Xueheng's view, the company is what supports his lavish lifestyle; as long as it remains profitable, he won't meddle any further.

Liang Lijiang is a typical career‑driven woman. When he was with her, he spent most of his time acting like a caretaker, looking after her meals and daily life, and supplying her with insider information. He coveted the affection she gave, and she valued his being at her beck and call—clingy but not annoying.

"I don't know, if you're fine, I'll go home and take care of the child."

There was still some time before bedtime, and Su Xi feared Su Yu might cause some trouble.

"Alright!"

Qin Tao had already packed Zhu Xueheng's mother's belongings for him and arranged a car; Zhu Xueheng hugged the items, got into the vehicle, and left.

……

On his way home, Su Xi received a message from Meng Xianle: the Chu Family has removed all entries related to Su Yu and replaced them with the Zhu Family's; should they spend more money to buy them back?

Su Xi: No need

Su Xi: Tai Shan is preparing to sue Chu Han Ya; find the right moment to sway the wind. Also, those with evidence can now appear; it's best they come one by one—mass exposure would save them too much money.

Meng Xianle: Got it!

If the Chu Family pulls some Hot Search entries every other day, the money could buy a platform. The Chu Family head isn't stingy, so why wouldn't the others be?

Within the circle, does the already infamous Chu Han Ya still merit this level of funding?

After replying to Meng Xianle, Su Xi opened the Zhu Family's Hot Search and glanced at the low‑bandwidth version of the news.

Zhu Xueheng's father, Zhu Wenhua, repeatedly purchased the scam company's accidental death package, targeting Zhu Xueheng himself.

During the gas‑explosion case, police routine investigation traced Zhu Wenhua through the scammer's account transactions. While questioning, Zhu Wenhua's phone received a WeChat verification message, which caught officials' attention.

After police contacted a friend, the scam company's people presented recordings of Zhu Xueheng with a woman and intimate photos, demanding Zhu Wenhua pay more. When Zhu Wenhua gave them ten million, they agreed to risk their lives to fabricate the illusion of Zhu Xueheng's accidental death.

Seeing that Zhu Wenhua didn't reply, they kept sending messages urging him. They said that if Zhu Wenhua were willing to give ten million, even if they failed to fake Zhu Xueheng's accidental death, they could still ensure he died in a way that couldn't be worse, certainly not like the gas‑explosion perpetrators who fled.

Officials first contained the scammer, traced his location via IP, and arrested them. During the intake process, their doctor performed a routine check on the prisoner and discovered the pregnant woman was fake; the belly was a specially crafted prosthetic.

Following that lead, officials quickly dismantled the scam network, and Zhu Wenhua will be prosecuted by the authorities for murder.

"No wonder he got so angry he fainted; the whole family ended up with only him."

Su Xi returned home, and also wanted to faint on the spot.
