"Auntie, you probably don't know. An Jinli has been plotting to take over Nanyu. After my parents passed away, he teamed up with others to maliciously acquire Nanyu's shares. This almost bankrupted Nanyu. For so many years, An Jinli has never given up on wanting to take over Nanyu. Many of the things I did were because he went too far. You actually want me to let such a person go? Let me let go of the murderer who killed my parents!"
"I know you hate him." Yang Mowan said, "I hate him too! If it weren't for him, how could I have suffered so much? How could my son have been the same since he was a child with or without a father? But Xiaoxun, there's nothing I can do. Yichen is my only relative now, and I don't want anything to happen to An Jinli that would implicate my son."
"With my cousin's abilities, he can live well even without An He in the future," Nan Xun said. "If you're worried, I'll be there to help him with anything he needs. As for An Jinli, I won't let him go. If Director Zhang wants to withdraw from this matter, his position as Public Security Director will be over."
"Xiaoxun!" Yang Mowan became excited, "You just won't let your cousin go!"
Nan Xun was about to speak when another person rushed into his office.
"Cousin?" Nan Xun looked at An Yichen who came in breathlessly and said, "Are you here to persuade me too?"
"No!" An Yichen nodded to Nanxun and strode to Yang Mowan's side. "Mom! You are so confused!"
"Yi Chen...Mom is doing this for you..."
"Are you doing this for me?" An Yichen was a little excited. "If I hadn't heard Aunt Miao say that An Yiqing had been to my house, I wouldn't have known you would be so ridiculous."
"I'd already been to the Public Security Bureau when I got here," An Yichen said. "Director Ren played me the recording of the phone call between Dad and Guo Zheng. Dad made it very clear on the phone that he wanted Guo Zheng to kill my aunt and uncle. Why would you help a man like that?"
"I'm not helping him. I'm helping you. If An Jinli becomes a murderer, how will you face the world in the future? How will you gain a foothold in the imperial capital?"
"Does hiding the truth for him mean I can gain a foothold? This will only make me feel guilty for the rest of my life!" An Yichen paused and said, "By doing this, you are not only helping An Jinli to avoid the charge of murder, but also helping An Yiqing to successfully become the consort of Liu's family. Do you think that ungrateful An Yiqing will not attack An He after he gains power? You are too naive!"
"But An Yiqing has already promised me that she won't compete with you for An He."
"You believe what he says?!" An Yichen felt a little disappointed. His mother was always wise, but she would lose her mind whenever she encountered something related to him. "An Yiqing is exactly the same as that woman, only able to act stupid and pitiful. If he really had no ambition, why would he listen to the old man and go to England to pursue that willful young lady Liu Ruohan. Do you think that An Yiqing, with his young master's behavior, can tolerate her? All this is because the old man promised that as long as he became the son-in-law of Liu, he would have a place in Anhe. But this mother and son are so greedy, will they be content with only this place? They will want more. Will you give it to them or not?"
Yang Mowan suddenly came to his senses after hearing what An Yichen said. An Yiqing was born to that woman. How could he possibly be a law-abiding person?
Nan Xun, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, had a thought. An Yichen was the only sober person in the An family.
