281: 281 Wu Family Incident (Part 1) 281: 281 Wu Family Incident (Part 1) Xiaofeng listened to Ershun’s words, the corners of her mouth pinched with a hint of a smile, “You know your brother; he’s straightforward in matters of the heart.
If he hadn’t dealt with his feelings so directly, Mi Xue wouldn’t hold a grudge against him.”
If Wu Yifan could have handled Mi Xue’s feelings for him more tactfully, she would not feel humiliated and naturally would not hold a grudge against Wu Yifan.
“That’s true, my brother is just too straightforward,” Wu Ershun sighed softly, “With his temperant, I don’t know if he can ever bring a sister-in-law ho.
Grandma and Mom hope he continues with his engagent to Lin Jing and marries her as soon as possible.”
“Your brother has his reasons for disagreeing, and after all, marriage is his business.
Besides, he’s not a child anymore; as long as he knows what he’s doing, that’s good enough.”
When it cos to feelings and marriage, outsiders can’t help much.
Only he himself knows what kind of person he wants to marry or what kind of woman he wants to spend his life with.
“You’re right,” Wu Ershun said as he mounted the motorbike, “I’m going to Southwest County today, to push our product at their big restaurants.
I’m going to win over each and every one of the ten counties in our city.”
Usually, Brother Ershun would accompany him, but today he had to go alone.
Having followed his brother for so long, he was confident that he had accumulated so sales techniques and could definitely sell their products.
“Be careful on your own.” Southwest County was quite a distance from Xijiang County; a round trip on a motorcycle would take approximately three hours, “Or pick soone from the factory to go with you.”
“Sister-in-law, you’re really underestimating ,” Wu Ershun flicked his hair, “You can be assured of my ability, there’ll be absolutely no problem.”
“Alright, just be careful.” Lately, Wu Ershun had been to many places, and even if his experience was not talked about, his courage had definitely grown.
If Ershun could go out and market on his own, it would undoubtedly be like adding a strong assistant for her.
“Don’t worry,” Ershun waved, twisted the throttle of his motorcycle, and with a puff of exhaust smoke, he was out of sight.
Xiaofeng watched from the door for a while, then headed towards the factory.
When she left work at noon and was heading ho, she overheard people discussing by the roadside, “Have you heard?
It’s said that Wu Changquan has been accused, and the Wu Family has been sealed off by the relevant authorities.
The charges seem to be serious.”
“That can’t be right, Wu Changquan seems like a decent person, he wouldn’t do sothing wrong.”
“Well, that’s not easy to say.
A person might not concern themselves with issues beyond their position, but once at his level, it’s hard to guarantee that he wouldn’t have so unusual thoughts.”
“That’s also true.”
Their conversation was not loud, and could be said to be very quiet, but Xiaofeng’s ears had beco increasingly sharp lately.
Even if they were not speaking loudly, she could still hear clearly.
Glancing at her wristwatch, it was already past twelve.
She decided to go ho to eat first and then call Wu Yifan after the al.
Whatever was going on with the Wu Family didn’t matter much to her.
But since Wu Yifan was similar in appearance to her brother, she subconsciously saw him as her own brother.
She would find out what the situation was after eating and asking him.
When she got ho, i Sanying saw Xiaofeng co in and pulled her outside, “Girl, a young man who claims to be Brother Ershun ca to our house.
I wasn’t sure if he was your friend, and I didn’t dare to send him away in haste.”
“Wu Yifan ca to our house?” Xiaofeng was truly shocked.
Even if the Wu Family had run into trouble, Wu Yifan shouldn’t have co to see her so quickly.
She was just a businesswoman and couldn’t help the Wu Family with anything.
Entering the living room, she indeed saw Wu Yifan sitting on her sofa, attentively flipping through today’s newspaper.
Upon hearing her arrive, he looked up, saw Xiaofeng co in, gently put down the newspaper, and said, “You’re back.”
The natural tone made Xiaofeng feel slightly uncomfortable, “Yifan, why have you co?”
“Soone reported my dad, and now he has been taken into custody.
Grandma and Mom are at ho crying a ss; listening to that made feel confused, so I ca here to hide away,” Wu Yifan’s words were unhurried, as though everything was within his expectations.
“I heard your family has been sealed off,” Xiaofeng said, frowning after the news she had heard on the road.
It seed that the Wu Family had indeed run into a serious problem.
“They won’t seal it off for now.”
Xiaofeng: “——.”
As the person involved, she was so calm that Xiaofeng thought she wasn’t a mber of the Wu Family.
“Is this a serious matter?
Can Mr.
Wu co out safe and sound?” The other party showed not the slightest sorrow or urgency, and as an outsider, she didn’t quite know how to comfort her.
“Right now it doesn’t seem to be a big problem, it all depends on what the other party holds.”
Su Xiaofeng of course understood that if soone really wanted to bring down Mr.
Wu, white could be turned into black, and after all, Mr.
Wu had been in his position for many years, handling events big and small, so it was impossible not to have any slip-ups.
“What are the charges now?” Last ti she used the mining disaster to threaten Zhang Jiaojiao, could it actually be the mining incident?
“Concealing the number of casualties in a mining accident,” Wu Yifan said calmly.
Xiaofeng’s heart skipped a beat; it really was that excuse.
She had only casually ntioned it last ti, how could soone really take that issue to press charges.
“Su Xiaofeng, co out here.” Zhang Jiaojiao and her brother Zhang Zerong charged into Xiaofeng’s courtyard with a nacing air, followed by Zhao Yanhong.
Zhang Jiaojiao’s face still had tears that hadn’t dried, but her eyes were infuriated, filled with rage and resentnt.
Zhang Zerong rushed up to Xiaofeng and raised his hand as if to smack her in the face, but Xiaofeng lightly caught the hand that was about to fall, her eyes cold and clear.
Seeing that he hadn’t hit her, Zhang Zerong grew even more angry.
If it weren’t for her being pregnant, he would have definitely used his foot, “Su Xiaofeng, you bitch, was it you who had soone report my brother-in-law?
Last ti you already threatened my sister, saying if the Wu Family crossed you, you’d report my brother-in-law and leave our Wu Family with no leader.
Are you saying it wasn’t you?”
He had originally thought Su Xiaofeng was just spouting nonsense to bluff his sister.
But now his brother-in-law was in trouble, and the reason was exactly what Su Xiaofeng had ntioned.
His sister at first was completely lost at ho, and it was he who reminded her; it must be this bitch Su Xiaofeng who had soone make the report.
Upon hearing this, his sister imdiately took him and rushed here.
“Su Xiaofeng.” Zhang Jiaojiao pushed Zhang Zerong away, stepped in front of Xiaofeng, exuding arrogance, “What has my Wu Family ever done to you for you to seek such revenge?
I admit that our Wu Family was selfish before and wanted you to marry Yifan.
But after you disagreed, wasn’t that the end of it?
After you married Ye Cheng, our Wu Family treated you like a benefactor.
Both Ershun and Yifan have been running around for your factory—why is that?
Isn’t it because you’re Dr.
Ye’s wife?
With Dr.
Ye not at ho, we helped look after you more.”
Zhang Jiaojiao snorted coldly and continued, “But look at you, not only do you not feel grateful, you bite back against our Wu Family.
Now that Yifan’s father is in trouble, our Wu Family might as well be finished.
Are you happy now?”
A string of accusations left Xiaofeng feeling helpless.
She certainly had ntioned the mining disaster before, but she had only said it casually and didn’t have solid evidence.
Even if she had reported it, without evidence, nobody would believe it anyway.
Her eyes were tinged with a touch of coldness, “Auntie, as for the trouble at the Wu Family, I’ve only just heard about it myself and still don’t understand what happened, and you’re already here.
Secondly, I definitely didn’t do this—I know nothing about Mr.
Wu’s affairs and certainly couldn’t report him.”
Concerning Wu Changquan, she had only t him once; he seed like a very stern person.
“If it’s not you, then who else could it be?” Zhang Jiaojiao was adamant that Su Xiaofeng was responsible for this, “Last ti you explicitly threatened , saying that Old Wu was definitely involved in a mining disaster.
How coincidental that soone reported Old Wu for this very issue.”
In her view, no one close to Old Wu would report him, the only possible person was Su Xiaofeng.
Because she was once threatened by her, she had dealings with both Ershun and Yifan, perhaps seeking to extract words from the brothers to set up the Wu Family.
“Mom.” Wu Yifan stood up and moved next to Su Xiaofeng, “I believe she didn’t do this.”
Having interacted with Su Xiaofeng for so long, he believed in her integrity and character, and at least in his heart, Su Xiaofeng was a trustworthy friend.
“Yifan.” Hearing her son’s words, Zhang Jiaojiao frowned, “I know you feel indebted to her because she’s Dr.
Ye’s wife.
Yifan, you need to understand that this ti it’s your father who’s in trouble, not soone else.
If sothing happens to your dad, it will be disastrous not only for our Wu Family but also for your and Ershun’s future.”
“Yeah, Yifan, your mom is right.
You absolutely must not plead for this bitch.
If you go soft-hearted, your dad will suffer because of her,” Zhang Zerong added.
Zhang Zerong wanted to say more, but suddenly felt a pain on his cheek.
A smack resounded, causing everyone’s gaze to involuntarily shift to Su Xiaofeng.
She had just retracted her hand, aning the slap just now was—delivered by Su Xiaofeng.
