Chapter 55 Investigation
Pei Yian avoided the crowd and came to Manager Wu's exclusive box, where people were already waiting.
Upon seeing Mr. Pei, Shopkeeper Wu looked haggard and stood up to greet him listlessly.
Pei Yian got straight to the point, "Manager Wu, do you know who the rat is?"
"Yes, Master Pei, he is the person closest to me. I still don't want to believe that he is the driving force behind this. He wants the huge Wu family to fall."
Pei Yian sat at the table and poured a glass of water in front of Shopkeeper Wu. "Human nature is unpredictable and people's hearts are easily changed."
"I know all this, but I... I never thought that would be the person sleeping next to me." Shopkeeper Wu said with resentment and confusion.
Pei Yian raised his eyebrows. As early as when he took over this matter, he had investigated several confidants around Manager Wu. He was a person who never fought a battle without preparation.
There are some petty thefts and corruption among those henchmen, but overall there is no big problem. If there is no problem with the henchmen around Manager Wu, then it can only be the people around him.
The investigation led to Fang Shangwen, who was originally just a small worker in the Wu family. After marrying into the Wu family, he became the second-in-command of the embroidery workshop. This person is definitely not an ordinary person.
Although the other party covered it up well on the surface, he still found some interesting things.
"I heard that Mr. Fang is a son-in-law?"
"Yes, he used to be a worker in an embroidery workshop. He saved my life, and we got together later. But my father only has me as his daughter, so he had to marry into my family."
When Shopkeeper Wu talked about these things, he couldn't help but sigh. Obviously... obviously Shangwen was a very good person before.
She couldn't help but fall into memories of the tall boy who, when everyone was at a loss, fearlessly rescued her from the frightened horse.
The hero saved the beauty, and her girlish heart was captured and she fell in love with him. In addition, Fang Shangwen himself was capable, so he quickly gained her father's recognition.
Pei Yian simply asked back, "How can Shopkeeper Wu be so sure that he wasn't the one who planned the life-saving grace?"
The Wu Family Embroidery Workshop is such a large business, and the heir is a woman. There are probably many people who have bad intentions.
These words had a great impact on Shopkeeper Wu. Her face lost all color and her lips trembled as if she wanted to say something to defend herself.
But when I savor and examine those beautified and treasured memories carefully, they also seem to reveal something strange.
Why was the horse startled for no reason? Why did Fang Shangwen, a laborer, suddenly appear there? And her father had warned her to be wary of those around her...
These events connected together made Shopkeeper Wu face the bloody and cruel truth.
Pei Yian noticed that the person opposite him looked very bad. It was really hard to accept that the mask of living under lies and deception was broken.
But the two of them were now in a partnership, and Pei Yian didn't want his partner to act on his emotions, so he reminded him, "Does Shopkeeper Wu want to give up the embroidery workshop?"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Wu also came out of his previous melancholy mood.
Even their encounter was fake, and she was the one being schemed against from the beginning to the end. Why should she be sad for a man who deceived her?
She calmed down and asked, "Master Pei, do you have any ideas?"
Pei Yian did not answer this question, but asked: "Shopkeeper Wu, what do you want to do with this rat?"
"This, I..." Shopkeeper Wu was in a state of confusion. First, she was betrayed by her partner, and then all the beautiful memories of her youth became shattered. This made it difficult for her to accept it for a while, and she didn't know how to face it.
She undoubtedly hated Shangwen. She hated him for his ulterior motives and for wanting to attack Wu's Embroidery Workshop. But after so many years of relationship and two children, she couldn't just give them up.
Shopkeeper Wu really couldn't make up his mind. If he reported the matter to the police, it would not only affect the Wu Embroidery Workshop, but also what would his two children think.
Pei Yian saw the tangled expression on her face and knew she was hesitating. He only said, "Shopkeeper Wu, I suggest you check the man beside you before making a decision. He is not as simple as you think."
After she has investigated everything clearly, she will take the initiative to ask me out.
Pei Yian's words stopped there. Shopkeeper Wu was no fool. He knew that there might be something here that he didn't know about, so he spent a lot of money to find someone to investigate.
This investigation actually allowed her to find out something.
Originally, she just thought that Fang Shangwen wanted to cooperate with the people from Zhang's Embroidery Workshop to bring down Wu's Embroidery Workshop... Who knew that everything was just too simple for her.
The real boss behind Zhang's Embroidery Workshop is Fang Shangwen.
The apparent bosses were Zhang He and Zhang Xuan, a brother and sister. Zhang He was Fang Shangwen's mistress, and they had a son and a daughter, named Fang Junbao and Fang Baozhu.
Junbao, Baozhu, look how funny you are!
What a great word "treasure"! Those two children are Fang Shangwen's treasures, so what are her Minjie and Weige?
These two children are not much older than her own two children. I'm afraid they got together when she was pregnant, or maybe even earlier.
The information she found was like a slap in the face, making a loud slapping sound.
She thought, there should be no one else in this world who would be fooled by her, right?
She is simply stupid and blind!
Not only did she not know when someone cuckolded her, but now the other person wanted to take over the Wu Embroidery Workshop. How could such a good thing happen?
She will definitely make this bastard pay the price!
Shopkeeper Wu's investigation was very covert, and Fang Shangwen had no idea about it. Or perhaps after so many years of planning, the Wu Embroidery Workshop was about to fall into his hands, and he had let his guard down.
Wu Niang is not a smart person. She has been doing tricks for so many years and she didn't notice it at all. Besides, the Wu Embroidery Workshop has no good embroiderers, and can't even embroider a decent Hundred Years of Longevity picture. The bet will definitely be lost.
Even if he had a decent picture of a hundred years of longevity, he would find a way to destroy it.
He was thinking about this in his mind, and just as he stepped into the door, he was rushed into the arms of a small figure, "Daddy, why did you come just now!"
Seeing that it was his most beloved youngest son, Fang Shangwen squatted down and picked him up, "Brother Bao, do you miss your daddy?"
"Yes! Daddy, you haven't been here for several days. Don't you love Baoer anymore?" Fang Junbao said coquettishly.
"That's not true. Daddy loves Bao Ge'er the most."
"Daddy, what about me?" The little girl in silk clothes stepped forward, pulled the corner of Fang Shangwen's clothes, and pouted in dissatisfaction.
"Daddy loves Zhuzhu too." Fang Shangwen picked up Fang Baozhu with his free hand.
Children's laughter echoed in the courtyard, and a beautiful woman walked out from inside. "Wenlang, you're here?"
