Chapter 86 The truth behind the car accident three years ago!

The Mid-Autumn Festival three years ago was just an ordinary reunion moment for other people's families.

But when the Xu family heard the news, their first reaction was that Xu Shaoyu had been in a serious car accident on his way back to his old home to celebrate the festival that day, and that car accident almost took Xu Shaoyu's life.

Many senior executives of the Xu Group speculated that the car accident was the work of Xu Shaochuan's father, Xu Erye.

The reason for this speculation is that Xu Shaoyu's attitude changed so much before and after the car accident.

Before that, although Xu Shaoyu wanted to compete for the rights of the Xu Group, he acted according to the rules and adhered to the principles of fair competition and strength being king.

It only took him four or five years to gain the support of the majority of directors, but he was not in a hurry to take the top position himself.

But after the car accident, he acted without mercy and was even more ruthless towards the middle and senior management of Mr. Xu's faction, and basically cleared them out of the Xu family.

Only Zhang Mao was left, holding the position of vice president, but his position was completely sidelined.

This is especially true for Mr. Xu.

A few years ago, he was the head of the Xu family, calling the shots in the North City. Now he can only fish and drink tea every day, living a retirement life.

Even if he was dissatisfied and occasionally caused trouble, it was because Xu Shaoyu didn't want to worry Mr. Xu and just stood by and watched. It didn't cause any big waves.

…

Seeing the car slowly starting up and getting farther and farther away from the hotel, Yan Ru finally felt in the mood to answer Xu Shaochuan.

But before she could say anything, her cell phone rang.

It was Chi Yu who called at the agreed time.

Yan Ruo quickly picked up the phone, reported that he was safe, told her that he was on his way back to the hotel, and repeatedly assured her that nothing was wrong before hanging up.

Then he quickly sent a message to He Hong.

Tell her that she has left safely and let him and He Jiaying go back without worry.

At the same time, I thanked him for his help today and agreed to invite him and He Jiaying to dinner tomorrow. Only after receiving the news from He Honghui did I feel completely relieved.

I saw her answering the phone and sending messages to let everyone know she was safe.

Xu Shaoyu snorted in displeasure, "As expected of someone who has been a secretary for so many years, he's really cautious and careful in his actions."

"It seems that even if you don't threaten me, nothing will happen to you today."

Yan Ruo smiled and said, "We ordinary people don't have much, and our lives are the most valuable. Of course, we cherish them very much."

Xu Shaochuan glanced at her sideways, signaled the driver to raise the middle barrier, and then spoke lightly.

"Now that we're safe, what do you know about the car accident three years ago? Just tell us."

Yan Ruo didn't keep anyone in suspense and spoke directly.

"The mastermind behind the car accident is the person you guessed."

"How do you know who I'm thinking of?"

"Isn't he your father, Mr. Xu's uncle, the second master of the Xu family?"

"Impossible!" Xu Shaochuan's expression instantly turned cold, and the look he gave Yan Ruo was full of suspicion.

Even though many people said that his father had murdered his own nephew in order to secure his position as the CEO of Xu Corporation, Xu Shaochuan never believed it.

"What evidence do you have?" He fixed his eyes on Yan Ruo.

"I'm warning you, if you dare to lie to me, I won't let you go even if I have my big brother to protect me."

Yan Ruo looked nonchalant. She didn't say anything nonsense, so she wasn't afraid because she didn't need anyone to protect her.

"Believe it or not. If you want to find out the truth of what happened back then, you can just ask someone to check with the guy with glasses who was with you last time."

"You mean... Jiang Zhou!"

Yan Ruo nodded, "He is your father's confidant. He is the one who does many things that your father is not convenient to do."

Everyone outside thought that Mr. Xu’s confidant was Secretary Zhang who always followed him.

Actually, it is not.

Jiang Zhou is Mr. Xu's most trusted subordinate.

Although he is young, he is very ruthless. Because he was adopted by Mr. Xu since he was a child, he is even more loyal to him.

Moreover, he has rarely appeared in the public eye in recent years and has no presence in North City.

It is said that the person who knows you best may not be your relatives or friends, but your opponent.

As Mr. Xu's biggest competitor, Xu Shaoyu naturally knew everything about him, including the shady things that Jiang Zhou did for him in secret.

Xu Shaochuan had obviously thought of this question as well, and he asked with a somewhat difficult voice.

"Does my eldest brother know about this?"

Yan Ruo looked at him as if he was a fool, "What do you think?"

Xu Shaochuan laughed at himself, "That's right, you were Big Brother's secretary before, how could he not know what you knew?"

"But if Big Brother is sure that it was my father who did it, why did he help him hide it?"

Yan Ruo thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Maybe it's because your grandparents are quite old."

Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu only had two sons in their lives. The eldest son lost his life in a car accident at a young age, which was a deep blow to them.

If he knew that his second son actually attacked the only bloodline left by his eldest son, he would be furious to death.

Although Xu Shaoyu helped to conceal the truth, he did not completely swallow his anger.

After all, it only took him two short years to quickly remove all of Mr. Xu's people from the group, causing him to lose the power he valued most.

And two years ago on the Lantern Festival, Mr. Xu also had a car accident.

However, the car accident was not very serious. Mr. Xu was fine except that he broke a leg and now he has to use a cane to walk.

However, Yan Ruo certainly wouldn't tell Xu Shaochuan about these things.

Neither of them spoke anymore, and the car fell into silence. Yan Ruo cautiously turned her head to glance at Xu Shaochuan.

His face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were as dark as ink. He seemed to still not believe that his father would do something to hurt his relatives.

Yan Ru was not surprised at his reaction at all.

Mr. Xu was a man of cruel and ruthless hearts, not even sparing his own nephew. However, he loved his only son, Xu Shaochuan, with all his heart.

A perfect image of a loving father.

In order to protect his father's image, he did not let Xu Shaochuan know anything about what he did.

After finding out the truth, Xu Shaoyu had properly arranged the witnesses and evidence in order to avoid upsetting the two elderly people and also to prevent the scandal from affecting Xu's reputation and stock price.

It's impossible for others to find out anything.

With Xu Erye and Xu Shaoyu jointly covering up the case, it is no wonder that Xu Shaochuan found nothing after two or three years of investigation.

As they were almost at the hotel, Yan Ruo's mood visibly improved.

She glanced at Xu Shaochuan, who was still in a depressed mood, and sighed slightly in her heart. This young master had been protected too well by his father since he was a child and could not stand setbacks.

After all, he had just helped her, Yan Ruo gave a sincere smile.

"Second Young Master, thank you for helping me in this critical moment today. If you don't mind, I'll treat you to a meal when you're free to express my gratitude."

The debt of favor is the hardest to repay. Whether you can afford to repay it is another matter, but you must show your attitude.

"Okay, tomorrow night."

Yan Ruoyuan thought that Xu Shaochuan was in no mood to eat in his current state, but she didn't expect him to agree without even thinking.

I wanted to confirm with him again, but Xu Shaoyu called me at this time.
