"It’s normal not to be able to guess," Tang Chuxia thought that a greater likelihood was sothing inherently problematic with the matter itself.
Initially, she believed that it was soone from Qingzhu who had taken action, or perhaps there was an issue with Wu Yue or Wen Wenqing. However, now she realized it might not have been Wen Wenqing, after all, the one who died was Yang Chao.
He had died on his wedding day, and it was soone familiar who had acted.
As for Jin Haidong receiving the ssage, it was probably to confuse the trail.
Tang Chuxia didn’t have much of a relationship with Xiaobai, naturally, there was nothing she wanted to say.
Yang Yingjie knew Tang Chuxia’s personality. After seeing that she stopped talking and even fell into thought after hearing Xiaobai’s words, he let Xiaobai leave first while he waited for Tang Chuxia.
Gu Beihuai whispered to Yang Yingjie, "Your cousin is no simple character!"
Yang Yingjie was stunned, then realized sothing, "You an..."
Gu Beihuai shook his head, "Just that you shouldn’t care too much about appearances!"
Yang Yingjie was smart and imdiately understood what Gu Beihuai ant, saying that he would properly investigate.
"I rember that initially there was a successor from the Sun Family who ca to propose to , and it ended up leading nowhere. Do you guys know what happened?"
At this point, when Tang Chuxia ntioned such a person, anyone would be puzzled.
After all, not many people knew about this matter at the ti, but Yang Yingjie and others did.
Gu Beihuai looked at Yang Yingjie.
Yang Yingjie nodded, "I know a little. After you married Gu Beihuai, the Sun Family naturally couldn’t proceed with their plans concerning you and gave you up, choosing to marry a girl from the Lin Family instead. No news ca out after that. How did you think to ask about him?"
"Just a sudden flash of inspiration, I thought of this person, and it just felt strange!"
Tang Chuxia hadn’t linked this person to the matter at hand right away; it really was sothing that suddenly popped into her mind, prompting her to ask.
Instead, it was Gu Beihuai who asked, "Do you have sothing you want to say?"
Tang Chuxia didn’t understand what he was asking and looked at him, puzzled.
"That Sun Qingyuan guy is no good thing, utterly ruthless and heartless, and he’s been involved with many won. What are you rembering him for?"
Gu Beihuai couldn’t hold back.
Knowing his wife was showing concern for another man in front of her husband, who wouldn’t think too much of it?
Tang Chuxia considered that it wasn’t the right ti for jokes and seriously said, "It’s just that I suddenly rembered the fragrance on that piece of paper. Although it slled like a woman’s perfu, I vaguely rember when Sun Qingyuan visited our ho, he seed to also have this fragrance on him. It was faint, but because it didn’t suit him, I took notice!"
Recalling this, so mories surfaced in Tang Chuxia’s mind.
She hadn’t expected these subconscious mories to erge now.
Gu Beihuai raised an eyebrow, not expecting Tang Chuxia to ntion this.
"Could it be Sun Qingyuan?"
He didn’t doubt Tang Chuxia’s words because he knew her five senses were far superior to ordinary people, a level of olfactory acuity that was definitely not mistaken.
Yang Yingjie thought for a mont, "Him? It shouldn’t be. Although that guy is nothing good and is cunning, the Yang Family isn’t sothing they can easily shake!"
Yang Yingjie, as the successor of the Yang Family, had the confidence to say this. Even Tang Chuxia believed that the Yang Family indeed had this capability.
In just these few years, to have reached their current state, it ant that the Yang Family hadn’t completely fallen.
Tang Chuxia suggested, "Even if this scent isn’t Sun Qingyuan’s, could it be possible that it belongs to soone close to him? If we find the people close to him, then we might find so clues?"
With no clues at hand, the clue provided by Tang Chuxia beca the only lead.
Gu Beihuai nodded in agreent, and Yang Yingjie said, "I’ll go consult with my father and get soone to investigate right away!"
He wasn’t foolish, naturally understanding how significant this matter was and that it couldn’t be taken lightly.
If it really was an issue with the Sun Family, he certainly wouldn’t be rciful.
Tang Chuxia nudged Gu Beihuai, indicating that now that the matter had been discussed, they could leave first as Yang Yingjie was still very busy.
Indeed, Yang Yingjie was busy and didn’t keep them for long, the sort of funeral where you couldn’t hold guests.
As they were leaving, they ran into Jin Haidong and Lu Qiming. Tang Chuxia, curious, asked how the two of them ended up together.
"It’s just a coincidence, but Lu Qiming said he also received a letter, only he thought it was a prank and threw it away without taking it seriously!"
Tang Chuxia was puzzled.
What was this about now?
"What was written in the letter?"
That was what Tang Chuxia was truly curious about.
Lu Qiming said, "It said that Old Sir Lu had an illegitimate child and told to ntally prepare!"
Tang Chuxia: ...
What was all this about?
Why did Lu Qiming need to be cautious if Old Sir Lu had an illegitimate child?
Shouldn’t it be Lu Qiming’s dad who needed to be cautious?
However, Tang Chuxia thought for a mont and realized Lu Qiming didn’t have a father anymore.
So, if Old Sir Lu had an illegitimate child, wouldn’t that also be an aid to the Lu Family? What was there to prepare for?
"I went and asked my grandpa, and he didn’t have any illegitimate children, so I thought it was just soone’s prank, and that’s why I threw the envelope away. Today, after running into Jin Haidong, who ntioned that he received a letter, I rembered this matter!"
Suddenly, Tang Chuxia thought of sothing and pulled Gu Beihuai along to seek answers.
"No, where are you running off to? What’s the problem? Let’s do this together!"
Jin Haidong hurried after her, curious as he was, how could he be left behind?
Imdiately, Lu Qiming followed suit. Missing out on gossip—that would be crazy.
Gu Beihuai initially didn’t want to take these two young masters with them, but they stated, "We’ve donated a big sum to your wife’s orphanage!"
Tang Chuxia quickly told Gu Beihuai, "Bring them as a favor for the God of Wealth!"
Gu Beihuai: ...
Being too pragmatic might not always be good.
The two Gods of Wealth, however, weren’t upset and still looked at Gu Beihuai cheerfully. Having thick skins allowed them to hitch a free ride.
Gu Beihuai had no choice but to start the car.
Tang Chuxia said, "Go to the Hu Family!"
Gu Beihuai also thought of sothing, but the two behind were curious.
"Hu Family? What Hu Family? Could it be Hu Mingcheng’s family?"
Lu Qiming, having said this, looked at Tang Chuxia with a gossip-filled expression, "You can’t still have feelings for the man who once abandoned you, right?"
Jin Haidong slapped Lu Qiming, "What nonsense are you spouting? Our little sister isn’t that brainless, is she? She must be going to find Hu Mingcheng, to take him as a lover and humiliate him!!"
Tang Chuxia: ... I thank you both for your wild imaginations!
