Chapter 185

News The rage in Old Master Zhu's heart grew more and more fierce. His sharp eyes pierced Zhu Yunchang, who remained silent the whole time, like a sharp sword, "Tell me! What's going on!"

Zhu Yunchang knew that he could not escape, so he gritted his teeth and slowly raised his head to meet Old Master Zhu's sharp eyes like a hawk. He shuddered slightly, "Dad! All this is because of the daughter that the Ji family just recognized. Today, my men went to collect debts and happened to run into her. Later, they went to the police station together. After that, the Lu family, the Ji family, and the Chu family all took action. After investigation, they knew that the two were our Zhu family's subordinates, so they would deal with our Zhu family." He told him the news he had just obtained in detail.

He could understand the involvement of the Lu and Ji families, but he was puzzled as to why the Chu family was also involved in this dispute.

Old Master Zhu frowned, his face frighteningly gloomy.

After a moment, he said, "Prepare a generous gift, and we will go to the Ji family to apologize." The only way now is to make Ling Yao calm down. Since she came back, it is not the first time that the Zhu family has suffered at her hands. They even gave her a piece of land before.

Ling Yao is a disaster, and he has to find a way to get rid of her.

"I know, Dad!" Zhu Yunchang nodded in response.

Standing up, Zhu Yunchang suddenly remembered something, "Dad, I have news about my little sister."

"Where is she?" Old Master Zhu stood up from his seat excitedly, his voice a little hoarse and trembling.

His little daughter was born by his wife during the war. At that time, his wife was a doctor. Because the front line urgently needed doctors, even though his wife was more than seven months pregnant, she still threw herself into the battlefield without hesitation.

But fate played a cruel joke on them.

On a dark night, the enemy launched a raid. On that thrilling night, his wife suffered a great fright, her body suddenly reacted, and she gave birth prematurely.

At that critical moment of life and death, they had to make a difficult decision to protect their child, so they hid their newly born daughter in the dense grass.

After the victory of the battle, he and his wife returned to look for their daughter many times, but they could not find the whereabouts of their daughter.

The nearby villagers had never seen their daughter either.

Every time they returned disappointed, it was like a sharp knife piercing his and his wife's hearts.

Now, more than 40 years have passed, and his wife has passed away a few years ago. Her greatest wish in this life is that he can find their daughter, so he has never given up looking for his daughter's whereabouts. He believes that as long as his daughter is not dead, he will definitely find her.

"In Yuncheng, I have sent people to look for her." Zhu Yunchang told Old Master Zhu all the news he knew.

Grandpa Zhu nodded excitedly, "If you have any news about your sister, tell me as soon as possible." It's good to have news, which means his daughter is still alive.

"I know, Dad." Zhu Yunchang knew that his parents' greatest wish in this life was to find his little sister, and he would definitely help them find her.

"Go prepare the gifts, we'll go to the Ji family." Grandpa Zhu waved to Zhu Yunchang. After getting the news about his daughter, he felt much better.

Ling Yao followed Ji Yuanming back to the Ji family, where Grandpa Ji was playing chess with Ji Yanting in the living room.

"Dad! I'm back." Ling Yao called Ji Yanting and nodded to Grandpa Ji.

Grandpa Ji smiled bitterly and nodded, "I'm back." He knew that his granddaughter had not forgiven him yet, and he did not force her. Although his original intention was for their own good, it did cause harm to them.

When Ling Xuemei heard Ling Yao's voice, she couldn't wait to put down the vegetables she was washing, wiped her hands hurriedly, and walked out of the kitchen quickly. She hadn't seen her daughter for a few days and really missed her.

"Mom!" Ling Yao saw Ling Xuemei and raised a brilliant smile on her face. She walked to her side and put her arm around her, "Mom, I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"

"Yes, every day. Are you leaving tonight?" Ling Xuemei smiled and gazed at her daughter lovingly. It was the first time that she was separated from her daughter for such a long time.

"I'm staying at home tonight." She came back this time just to accompany her parents and talk to them.

"Is Qingyun coming over?"

"He's out on a mission." Thinking of Lu Qingyun, Ling Yao was a little worried. She didn't know how he was doing now.

"Then I'll go to the kitchen to cook a few more dishes." Ling Xuemei smiled and walked towards the kitchen.

"I'll do it with you." Ling Yao stepped up to catch up with Ling Xuemei.

The two had just left when the housekeeper walked in, "Master! Master Zhu and the others are here."

Ji Yanting and Master Ji looked at each other, "Take them to the reception room first." They naturally knew why Master Zhu and the others came over.

After waiting for a while in the reception room, Master Zhu and Zhu Yunchang saw Ji Yanting and Master Ji walked in.

Master Zhu and Zhu Yunchang immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile.

"Brother Ji! Yanting."

"Uncle Ji! Brother Ji!"

Ji Yanting and Master Ji nodded slightly, walked to the chair and sat down expressionlessly.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Master Zhu and Zhu Yunchang looked at each other.

Zhu Yunchang spoke first, breaking the silence, "Uncle Ji! I already know what happened today. It was our Zhu family's fault. We came here this time to apologize to Miss Ji. This is the gift we prepared for Miss Ji."

He opened the gift he brought, which contained a set of emerald green jade jewelry.

Ji Yanting glanced casually and said in a light tone, "This matter depends on my daughter's attitude." Now in his heart, his daughter and wife are the most important. Anyone who dares to bully them, he will make them pay for it.

Zhu Yunchang felt humiliated, but for the future of his family, he knew that he had to endure it at this moment, and smiled, "Then can you ask Miss Ji to come over, I will apologize to her in person."

Ji Yanting cast a look at the housekeeper beside him.

The housekeeper nodded in understanding and walked out of the living room.

The kitchen was filled with laughter, and Ling Yao and Ling Xuemei were chatting happily.

The housekeeper walked into the kitchen, breaking the joyful atmosphere, "Miss, the Zhu family is here and wants to see you."

Hearing this, Ling Yao's lips slightly lifted up, revealing an interested smile, "I'll go over in a while." She already knew about the Ji family, the Lu family, and the Chu family joining forces to suppress the Zhu family. She had no sympathy for the Zhu family's current situation.

"Yaoyao, mom will go with you." Ling Xuemei said. She already knew from Yan Ting that the people who had been secretly dealing with her and her daughter all these years were the Zhu family.
