Chapter 14 More Than Just a Cousin
This harmless expression and nonchalant tone, in Wang Ying's eyes, were full of provocation and sarcasm.
She was so angry that her cheeks trembled and she glared at those yellow-haired guys fiercely.
waste!
Useless thing!
He can't even handle a woman, yet he keeps calling himself a master.
She just labeled Chen Xu a charlatan. Isn't this a slap in her face?
"What kind of attitude is that!"
Seeing her like this, Fang Shuhua's pent-up anger erupted completely: "Chen Xu, is this the way you talk to Madam Du? Apologize to me!"
Shen Youyou followed up, “Sister, no matter how willful you were before, I didn’t mind, but this time, you really got into trouble… Otherwise, you should kneel down and kowtow a few times to admit your mistake, at least show some attitude.”
On the surface, she showed concern for Chen Xu, but in fact, she was just putting her in a difficult position.
She had no choice but to kneel.
Shen Youyou thought of Shen Xu's kowtow and admitting his mistake, and the anger in his heart finally got out a little.
But unexpectedly, Chen Xu ignored her and didn't even look at her.
Qing Lingling's eyes swept over the people from the Du family.
It seems that he wants to use Fang Shuhua to put pressure on her?
What a bad method.
She turned her head, and her gaze finally fell on Shen Youyou and Fang Shuhua.
With a light laugh and a raised eyebrow, she said word by word: "Who do you think you are?"
The air suddenly became quiet.
Fang Shuhua's face instantly turned red with anger, and her lungs ached from anger.
“Give me…”
“Mrs. Shen, when is it your turn to interfere in our Du family’s affairs?”
Du Yuan, who was watching the show on the side, looked gloomy.
During the investigation, he also investigated Shen Xu and learned some things about the Shen family.
When Wang Ying and Fang Shuhua had a head-to-head fight, he just watched it for fun.
But he didn't expect that Wang Ying actually invited Chen Xu over.
"Miss Chen Xu..."
He went to meet her apologetically, but before he could finish his words, Du Xinyao's tears fell like pearls from a broken string:
"Brother, you still don't trust your sister? We've been siblings for so many years, would you rather trust this master who appeared out of nowhere than your sister?"
"Ms. Shen, I don't know when I offended you. I apologize to you, but please stop spreading rumors and destroying the relationship between me and my brother, okay?"
Chen Xu: ...
The smell of this tea is intoxicating.
"What do you think?"
Du Yuan didn't react immediately, Chen Xu looked at him:
"Don't tell me that the only solution you could think of for the entire day was to complain to him."
After Chen Xu finished speaking, his eyes fell unconcealedly on Du Boqi, who had been silent the whole time.
With contempt.
Du Boqi: "..."
Du Yuan: “…”
He coughed and took out the information he had found.
Seeing that he was really prepared, Wang Ying and Du Xinyao's pupils suddenly shrank. They wanted to say something, but Du Yuan had already spoken.
"Ever since you and your daughter joined the company, you've been embezzling public funds under various pretexts, stealing and replacing materials, and passing off inferior products as good ones. And all of this money has gone into the account of your cousin from the Wang family."
"He even helped introduce resources and resold company secrets to your cousin. Not only did he embezzle company assets, he also put the company's reputation and interests at risk."
"It's just that your appetite is too big. Someone in the company has noticed your actions. So, you are ready to go all out and attack me directly."
Du Yuan's tone grew colder. "If it weren't for this investigation, I wouldn't have known my sister had such 'extraordinary' abilities and such a 'deep' brotherly bond!"
After hearing this, everyone present, including Fang Shuhua, changed their expressions.
Wang Ying and Du Xinyao's faces turned pale as paper, and they fell to their knees on the ground.
This appearance further confirmed Du Yuan's investigation.
Du Boqi shuddered and looked at them in disbelief: "Why?"
"You are already the Du family's wife, the Du family's daughter. My father and I obey your every word. What else are you dissatisfied with? Why do you still do such a thing!"
"Boqi..." Wang Ying's mouth trembled, and her expression showed pain, but tears just fell down.
"Mom!" Du Xinyao's face changed when she saw this, and she couldn't help herself.
"Because...he's more than just a cousin!"
As soon as the words fell, the air was silent.
This ambiguous but thought-provoking sentence changed everyone's expression.
This is... there's something fishy going on.
Du Yuan also realized something. He turned around and saw Du Boqi's changing expression, and his heart skipped a beat.
Wang Ying screamed and hurriedly tried to pull Du Xinyao to stop her, but Du Xinyao pushed her away.
She said in a tearful voice: "Because, my cousin is also my father's son!"
"We are all my father's sons. Brother Yuan is the only son of the upright Du family and the general manager of the high-ranking Du Group."
"But what about my brother? He's obviously older than Brother Yuan. For the sake of Dad's reputation and the reputation of the Du Group, he can only be an illegitimate child who can never see the light of day."
"We're both dad's sons, why...this isn't fair at all. I just want my brother to get what he deserves."
Even though they had some guesses in their hearts, everyone was still shocked after hearing Du Xinyao's words.
Another bloody case caused by an illegitimate child.
Years of secrets were revealed, and Wang Ying no longer wanted to hide it. Tears welled up in her eyes: "Yuanyuan, we admit that we did some bad things, but he is also my son. Please, forgive my selfishness as a mother."
She cried so hard, and every word she said was from the heart as a mother, which moved Fang Shuhua. However, Du Yuan took a few steps back, his eyes fixed on his father blankly.
He was very confused.
In his memory, his father and mother always had a good relationship.
My mother died of illness and my father was depressed for a long time before he got over it.
It was also because of this that he was not resistant to Wang Ying's appearance.
But now, he suddenly learned that his father had an illegitimate child with Wang Ying.
An illegitimate child who is older than him.
Were all the love and friendship of those years just an illusion?
Du Boqi didn't dare to look him in the eye. After a while, he sat dejectedly on the sofa: "It's all my fault."
"I'm sorry for you."
Du Boqi and Wang Ying grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. It was natural for them to get together after getting to know each other.
Just when they were discussing their marriage, Wang Ying's family suddenly went bankrupt and no news came from them.
Two years later, Du Boqi met Du Yuan's mother through an introduction. They soon got married and had Du Yuan.
After marriage, they treated each other with respect and developed feelings for each other.
However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Du Yuan's mother passed away due to an illness. He was depressed for several years. During a business trip, Du Boqi met Wang Ying again.
It was at this time that he learned that he and Wang Ying had a son.
But Wang Zheng is much older than Du Yuan, and no one would believe this experience.
For the sake of the Du family's reputation, Du Boqi can marry Wang Ying, but he cannot and must never acknowledge the existence of Wang Zheng.
It turns out that this is the story behind it.
After listening to his story, the scene fell into silence.
"Oh."
Chen Xu only chuckled, a hint of mockery gathered in his eyes: "So, because of this, you love and cherish them even more."
"You're even going to turn a blind eye to this kind of thing?"
Du Boqi didn't say anything.
Accepted.
Everything happened because of him.
Blame him if you want to blame someone.
