Pei Jun's statement did make Nan Xiangwan frown, but they had to be on guard.
"Thank you for reminding me. If the old general wants to help the Xue and Hua families cover up this matter, it means they want to go against the Ye family!"
“But the old general and Grandpa Ye are quite good old friends, so I think we still have a chance of winning this matter!” Zhan Siyu said.
Pei Jun nodded with a smile. It seemed that way for now, but in any case, the future of this matter was still uncertain.
After confirming Xue Wanqing's testimony, they planned to go to the military base to find the old general immediately after lunch.
This is Ouyang Qian and Nan Haochen cooking in the kitchen, preparing a sumptuous lunch.
Zhan Siyu, Pei Jun, and Nan Xiangwan were sitting in the living room, discussing what to say when they met the old general that afternoon.
“We can’t just go to the military base openly, can we? Otherwise they’ll become suspicious!” Zhan Siyu said.
After all, Xue Wanqing has disappeared, and Fu Tingshen and the Xue family will definitely be on high alert.
Pei Jun nodded. He also felt that they couldn't be reckless. If Nan Xiangwan appeared openly at the military base, it would definitely arouse Fu Tingshen's vigilance.
At that time, the Xue family might use the pretext of kidnapping Xue Wanqing to turn the tables and accuse the Xue family of wrongdoing, which would be terrible.
"Are you sure you won't tell anyone about Xue Wanqing's appearance in Xingfu Residential Area?"
"We must confirm this carefully, but I believe that everyone in your Happiness Community can be trusted. Just don't tell the Hua family this news!"
Pei Jun was still confirming this matter with Nan Xiangwan, after all, they couldn't let the Hua family and Xue family have any leverage over them.
These two powerful families have now joined forces, seemingly to cover up Fu Tingshen's crimes.
So they pushed Xue Wanqing forward to help them bear this injustice.
This way, the heir of the Fu family can be preserved, while Xue Wanqing, the daughter of the Xue family, is not of much use and therefore has little value.
"Has the Xue family fallen so low as to dare to use Fu Tingshen to clean up the mess?" Pei Jun was a little confused.
After all, he left his family when he was young, so he was not very clear about the grudges and entanglements between the eight great families.
I've only heard occasionally that the Xue family seems to have declined long ago. The reason they still hold the title of one of the eight great families is mainly because of the Hua family and the Fu family helping them.
"No wonder Fu Tingshen would do such a thing!"
"We must keep Xue Wanqing here. We'll have him testify in court. Since you can't go to the military base openly, should I notify the old general to come over?"
Pei Jun then offered another suggestion: if it was inconvenient for them to go to the military base to inform them of the situation, it would be best to have the old general come here to listen to them.
Nan Xiangwan shook her head and said, "No, the old general will come to the food street when we go to see Grandpa Ye, he can't come at other times!"
"The military base has always been neutral; we can't let them find any fault with it!"
Unexpectedly, even at this point, Nan Xiangwan was still thinking about the old general.
“That makes sense!” Pei Jun said.
Pei Jun was the old general's most prized disciple, and some even said that Pei Jun might succeed the old general in the future.
If he said a few words to the old general, there was basically no reason for him not to agree.
However, this matter was an exception. In fact, Pei Jun did not want to trouble the old general. He had to handle official business strictly, otherwise people would think he was biased.
"Then we need to set up a disguise first. Let's go to the warehouse first, and then leave through the back door!"
“Ander will create the illusion that we’ve been in the warehouse all afternoon, and then you can pick us up from the back door!” Zhan Siyu said.
Looking at the current situation, this is indeed the only good solution.
Pei Jun said, "But doing this is still a bit risky!"
He wasn't lying; doing so was very risky, and he didn't know what the final impact would be.
Nan Xiangwan said, "There are indeed risks, and they are not small!"
"However, sometimes you have to take the risk, and sometimes, the greater the risk, the greater the reward!"
Zhan Siyu also agreed with Nan Xiangwan's statement. They now had to risk going to the military base to explain the matter to the old general in person. This would not only clear them of suspicion but also allow the old general to make preparations in advance.
Nangong Chen thought for two minutes and finally agreed to the plan with Pei Jun.
Ouyang Qian had already prepared lunch and invited them into the kitchen's dining area.
"Let's eat something first. We're going to see the old general this afternoon, which will probably take a lot of effort!"
“I made an extra portion today, sisters, you can take this delicious food with you to find the old general!” Ouyang Qian said.
Nan Xiangwan smiled again, surprised that Ouyang Qian was so considerate.
He had been thinking the same thing; he couldn't go to the old general empty-handed, so it would be best to bring a gift when he went to the military base.
Nan Haochen also said, "I prepared a basket of fruit earlier, you can take it with you!"
"Brother-in-law, we've had a long vacation of over a month, but those research guys at the Academy of Sciences have been working day and night on experiments!"
"They probably haven't tried these fruits before, let's quickly send them over for them to try!"
Zhan Siyu looked at the fruit that Nan Haochen had prepared and expressed his full approval.
Not everyone on Rose Star is their enemy.
For example, the scientists who were doing research with them in the Academy of Sciences, although they came from different families, agreed to spread these seeds all over the Rose Star after they witnessed the planting technology and plant technology of the Blue Star.
Because they had seen lush plants, colorful flower fields, and vibrant forests in the space of Zhan Siyu.
It was a scene that many people longed for, where these scientists were focused on their research, free from the conflicts of interest among powerful families, and thus pursuing a purer path.
Zhan Siyu said, "That's right, they've been doing experiments for so long, it's time to reward them!"
"Then you have to say that I prepared the fruit for them, brother-in-law. Those guys have always disliked me, thinking that I only became the third person in charge because I was by your side!"
"But actually, they don't understand my abilities, brother-in-law, don't you think?"
Nan Haochen had some conflicts with the researchers at the Academy of Sciences, but they ultimately got along quite well.
Zhan Siyu said, "Haochen, don't rush. Once you have the ability, no one will look down on you!"
