Mianmian hadn’t even reached Qin Xiao when he squatted down, and as soon as she got close, he lifted her up onto his shoulders...
Mianmian was lifted high up, bursting into joyous laughter...
Qin Xiao, carrying Mianmian, ran wildly for a few steps, sprinting towards Xiao Li, who cooperatively dodged aside, and the family of three played happily together.
After playing around for a while, the family went up to the second floor. Xiao Li gave Mianmian a bath and told her so stories. Once Mianmian fell asleep, Xiao Li returned to the room.
Qin Xiao wasn’t in the room; he was probably in the study.
Xiao Li took so clothes with her to the bathroom to shower.
In the study, Qin Xiao was reviewing so data, which comprised Fang’s Enterprise’s share capital, market value, definitions of large and small caps, and its price-earnings ratio.
It was very likely that they would confront the Fang Family in the future, and it was necessary to understand the opponent’s strength in advance.
After showering, Xiao Li ca out and, seeing that Qin Xiao hadn’t returned, picked up her laptop to research the Wen Family and the Bai Family.
Although she knew that the information from Baidu was public knowledge and probably not very helpful,
When she was with Bai Yu earlier today, in another mont when she couldn’t obtain the truth, her heart was consud with frustration and discomfort.
If she didn’t do sothing, she’d go mad.
Qin Xiao returned from the study to find Xiao Li sitting at the desk in the room, looking at sothing. As he got closer, he saw it was so information about the Wen Family, and his eyes flickered slightly...
Feeling soone approach while she was reading, Xiao Li turned her head to see Qin Xiao’s handso profile, "Are you done with work?"
Qin Xiao nodded, "Yes, I’m done. You’re looking into the Wen Family..."
Xiao Li nodded, "The other day at the Wen Family, Old Master Wen wouldn’t tell the truth, and today at Bai Yu’s, my great-uncle also kept quiet...
What really happened back then? What could have caused them all to keep silent with ?
I really want to know what happened with Mom back then?
But no one will tell , so I have to investigate myself, even though I know the things I find online are just surface-level.
I can’t find anything useful here.
But I can’t help but keep looking. If I don’t do sothing, I’ll feel utterly powerless."
Hearing this, Qin Xiao pulled Xiao Li into his embrace and gently kissed the top of her head, "Didn’t I say I’d investigate? Leave these matters to .
Zilong has already found so clues, and soon we should have more information."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Li abruptly looked up, "Uncle, are you serious?
You found so leads? What are they?"
Qin Xiao smiled, "It’s true. We’ve tracked down a couple of old servants from the past, and we’re currently trying to find them. Once we do, we should get so useful information."
Xiao Li excitedly said, "Promise you’ll tell as soon as you have news."
Qin Xiao nodded, "Alright."
A few days later, at Heshun Villa, Qin Xiao sat at his desk with a low pressure around him, and Qin Zilong and Mr. Feng stood beside him, not daring to breathe loudly.
Mr. Feng was slightly better off, as he was only responsible for tracking the Fang Family’s third master recently.
But Qin Zilong was having a tougher ti, as he had been the one digging into the Wen Family matters and knew all the inside stories.
Every ti there was a developnt, he had to endure Qin Xiao’s low pressure once again.
Including this ti, he had already endured it three tis this week.
The first ti was when Qin Xiao threw things, and last ti, he didn’t throw anything.
This ti, judging by his ominous aura... maybe... perhaps... he might throw sothing again!
Thinking this, Qin Zilong’s gaze lingered on the bamboo chrysanthemum ornant on the table...
Whimpering...
It had only been there for two days, and he was already reluctant to part with it!
If he had known, he should have switched it out before Qin Xiao arrived and replaced it with another ornant...
Just as Qin Zilong reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the ornant, accepting the imminent loss, Qin Xiao stood up.
Qin Xiao stood coldly and walked out, with Mr. Feng quickly following.
The car left Heshun Villa and headed straight to Wen Jishan’s ho.
At Wen Jishan’s ho, when he heard that Qin Xiao was at the gate, he was a bit surprised.
Although surprised, he still invited him in.
In the living room, Qin Xiao sat expressionlessly. Wen Jishan did not understand the purpose of his nephew-in-law’s visit today, so he quietly drank tea to keep him company...
After a quarter of an hour had passed with no sign of Qin Xiao speaking, Wen Jishan, feeling helpless, finally spoke, "Qin Xiao, your purpose for coming today is..."
Qin Xiao took a small sip from the teacup in front of him and then calmly said, "There’s no need to rush, Master Wen. Not everyone is here yet. Once everyone has arrived, I’ll explain my purpose for coming..."
Wen Jishan, puzzled, asked, "Soone else is coming?"
No sooner had he spoken than the door opened and Wen Jiliang walked in...
On his way to Wen Jishan’s, Qin Xiao had also contacted Wen Jiliang.
Seeing Wen Jiliang arrive, Qin Xiao said, "Let’s go to a place where we can discuss matters properly!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Jishan led Qin Xiao and Wen Jiliang to his study.
Once all three were seated in the study, Qin Xiao finally started to speak slowly, "Recently, I’ve uncovered quite a bit; I’ve almost pieced together what happened back then.
The actions taken by the Wen Family’s first branch and Fang’s Enterprise’s third master against my mother-in-law are all known to ."
As soon as Qin Xiao finished speaking, Wen Jishan and Wen Jiliang shot up from their seats...
Wen Jiliang asked, "What... what do you know?"
Qin Xiao raised his gaze, "Almost all that needs to be known. I never expected that my mother-in-law, a daughter of the Wen Family, almost got humiliated by outsiders in her own ho...
To think that the n from the Wen Family’s second branch were so incompetent, unable to protect even their own mother and sister."
Upon hearing this, Wen Jishan and Wen Jiliang’s faces turned pale, and they both slumped back into their chairs in despair.
Wen Jiliang, after a mont, closed his eyes to hide the bitterness in them...
"Since you know all this, what is your purpose here today?" Wen Jiliang asked, eyes still shut.
Qin Xiao calmly replied, "I need to know all the details, so when I talk to Xiao Li, I can explain things clearly."
Startled by this, Wen Jiliang opened his eyes wide, "You haven’t told Xiao Li yet?
Can’t... can’t you keep it from her? Telling her such things will only bring her pain!"
Qin Xiao gave Wen Jiliang a cool glance, "She has the right to know!"
An hour later, with a frost-covered deanor, Qin Xiao erged from the study and left the Wen ho.
After he was gone, the Wen brothers went to Old Master Wen’s room to report the situation. The father and sons shared a bitter smile, followed by a long silence.
Once the car exited the community, Qin Xiao’s mood visibly lightened slightly, and he pulled out his phone to make a call...
On the other end, Xiao Li seed busy, as she answered and exchanged a few words before hanging up.
Feeling helpless, Qin Xiao could only instruct the driver to head to the hospital entrance to wait for her.
