Chapter 310 The Brother Who's Rich

The repairman clearly hadn't expected to run into Song Zhaoming again. After a brief moment of surprise, he ultimately chose to confess.

"It was Xiuzhen who took the initiative to contact me. She knew that I worked in a car repair shop and sometimes had access to some nice cars and luxury cars that were brought in for repair. So she deliberately set up a scheme to make you misunderstand that she was cheating on you, so that you would give up on her and break up with her."

The repairman and Lin Xiuzhen met while working part-time in college, so they were old acquaintances, but there was absolutely no romantic feeling between them.

The repairman agreed to help Lin Xiuzhen for two reasons: firstly, because the two knew each other and could be considered friends, and secondly, because Lin Xiuzhen had paid him a fee to ask for his help.

"Why would she do that?"

"Maybe it's because she was afraid of implicating you. I don't know much, but when she came to see me, she was in a bad mood. I vaguely heard her say that her family seemed to be in debt."

Song Zhaoming never imagined that his girlfriend would break up with him for this reason.

Not long after I got back, I developed a high fever that lasted for two whole days, and I almost died.

As soon as the temperature dropped a little this morning, he immediately ran to find Ye Wanxi.

Ye Wanxi was speechless after hearing this: "So after all you've been doing for so many days, you still don't even know where their hometown is?"

"No, no, no, Miss Ye, you've misunderstood." Old Song quickly explained to his son, "Zhaoming went to that girl's workplace to look for her employment report, but it only listed her residence in this city, not her hometown address. Later, we tried to retrieve her file from the university."

"However, as you know, strictly speaking, we have no relation to that child. The school, in order to protect students' privacy, will not easily tell us such things. So, it took some time, and it took us these past two days to finally find out the location of the child's hometown."

"Oh?" Ye Wanxi raised an eyebrow. "Since you already know where she lives, why don't you go look for her? Why come looking for me instead?"

"I wanted to come."

Song Zhaoming had long since lost the wariness and distrust he had shown during his last visit. He stood in front of Ye Wanxi, bowed slightly, and said with a subtle plea, "I would like to ask Miss Ye to come with us."

"Why? The person is already dead. All you need to do is find the child and bring him back, right? Why do I have to come with you?"

"Because I want...I want..."

"Do you want me to see if she's still there, or perhaps you want me to help you meet her?"

Having his thoughts exposed, Song Zhaoming didn't try to hide them. He nodded and replied in a hoarse voice, "Yes..."

What if I say I can't do it?

Song Zhaoming's slightly bright eyes dimmed again at Ye Wanxi's words: "I'm sorry."

Song Yulan and her mother felt sorry for him when they saw him like this, so they went up to him, patted his shoulder, and comforted him softly.

Even the usually straightforward Lao Song was frowning at this moment, not knowing how to handle the matter.

Jiang's mother and Song's mother have a good relationship, and because of Jiang Lin's situation, Jiang's mother can really understand the love parents have for their children.

After hesitating for a moment, he walked over and took Ye Wanxi's hand, asking softly, "Wanxi, is there really no way at all?"

Ye Wanxi stared at the group for a while before finally relenting: "For the sake of my uncle, aunt, and my fourth brother, I can go with you on this trip."

"you……"

"But I can't give you any guarantees regarding your request."

Song Zhaoming's hands, hanging by his sides, tightened unconsciously, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what the outcome, I will be grateful for your kindness."

If it weren't for the person in front of him, he might never have known that he and she had a child, let alone that she had never betrayed him.

These two things alone were enough for him to be grateful to Ye Wanxi for a lifetime.

Ye Wanxi seemed to see through his thoughts and sighed: "You didn't come to the wrong place today. If you only care about the child she had with you and not about the deceased, then I really don't need to get involved. But since you still care about her, there are some things that need to be dealt with."

Mrs. Song frowned slightly, sensing that Ye Wanxi's words had a hidden meaning, just like when they came that day, Ye Wanxi had said something similar.

"Miss Ye, do you... know something?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Ye Wanxi didn't say much, and the others didn't ask any more questions.

The Song family was anxious. As soon as Ye Wanxi agreed, they immediately arranged their itinerary and decided to leave early the next morning.

This trip was going to take several days, and the factory needed to arrange some people to help manage it, so the Song family did not linger for too long and left first.

The Jiang family stayed to have lunch with Ye Wanxi before leaving. Before leaving, Jiang Shaofeng awkwardly said to Ye Wanxi, "Well, you are my brother's sister, so you are also my sister. If there is anything you can't solve in the future, you can ask me for help."

Jiang's mother quickly realized what was going on and said with a smile, "Right, right, I forgot. Shao Feng and Wan Xi are now in the same circle. If Wan Xi encounters any trouble in the future, she can tell Shao Feng. If he can't solve it, we're here for her."

"good."

Gao Min observed the Jiang family's attitude towards Ye Wanxi. As soon as they left, she couldn't help but sigh, "You really know a lot of brothers, don't you? First, there was an older brother who became your boyfriend, then a second brother who gave you a house, then a famous director, and now there's a fourth brother whose parents are keen on giving you jewelry. Will a third brother and a sixth brother pop up in a while?"

"...There's no sixth brother, I only have five brothers."

"So, you really do have a third brother who hasn't come out yet?"

"Actually, we've already met since we came out."

Gao Min was taken aback: "When? How come I didn't know?"

"...You didn't ask either."

Gao Min's gaze suddenly flew over, and Ye Wanxi immediately shut her mouth.

"Tell me, what does your third brother do? When did you first meet him?"

"I don't know exactly what he does." The auction house is probably just one of her third senior brother's businesses, and she doesn't know what his main business is now.

"Do you remember when Yihuan came to visit me at the hospital last time? Didn't I give her a piece of jade, and later I also gave you a box of large pearls?"

"Of course I remember." She had never seen such a large pearl in her life, how could she not remember?

"That's the pocket money he gave me."

Gao Min paused for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, oh, oh, I remember now! It's that new brother you mentioned the other day, the one whose family is rich? He's your third brother?"

"..." So, of all the things I said that day, did you only remember one sentence: "Your family owns a mine"?
