For a moment, the only sound in the living room was the recording playing from Fu Shengying's phone.
Qin Feng glanced discreetly in Qin Lu's direction. Wasn't this the topic of their secret conversation in the study earlier?
Could it be that Mu Weiwei not only poisoned Xiao Lu at that time, but also left a listening device in the room, which is how she heard their conversation?
Qin Man remained silent, nervously observing Fu Shengying's expression.
No wonder he rushed in so angrily, and with that same expression the whole time.
They originally thought they would claim that the place Xiaolu mentioned was found by their own people.
If they can find the child by following this lead, at least their good deeds and bad deeds will have balanced out.
Little did they know, they already knew before they even said it.
Therefore, their tone just now, as if they had done them a great favor, was quite a slap in the face.
“Uncle Fu, this matter... is because Xiao Lu was too ignorant and listened to the Gu family’s instigation.”
"Qin Lu is ignorant, and your older brother Qin Feng is in his forties, isn't he ignorant too?" Fu Shengying sneered and said, "If it hadn't been discovered now, and Qin Lu hadn't been poisoned, would you have given up now?"
He could clearly hear from the recording that Qin Feng was unwilling to accept defeat.
Their decision to tell Han Zheng and the others that the person who took Youyou was at the Huainan intersection was simply due to circumstances.
Firstly, Qin Lu was poisoned and his life was now in Gu Weiwei's hands. Secondly, they knew about Gu Weiwei's relationship with the Dorrance family, and their plan had already been exposed, so they knew that continuing would not lead to victory.
That's why I wanted to tell them, and also wanted to distance myself from them and do the Fu family a favor.
"Uncle Fu, we were indeed wrong in this matter, but since it hasn't escalated into a major disaster, we hope you will be magnanimous."
"Not yet a major mistake?" Fu Shengying sneered angrily, her words ringing out, "You've ruined my grandson's life, and you haven't even made a major mistake?"
"Uncle Fu..."
"I'm telling you, if anything happens to my grandson, I will not only make Qin Lu pay with his life, but I will also make sure that your entire Qin family suffers a terrible death," Fu Shengying said angrily.
They came to offer their congratulations without any suspicion of the Qin family, out of consideration for the long-standing friendship between the two families.
Little did they know, they had been plotting against them in secret all along.
“Uncle Fu, this time my elder brother and Xiao Lu were bewitched, but…” Qin Man sighed helplessly and pleaded, “Could you please not take this to our old man? You know he hasn’t been feeling well lately. If he finds out about this, he’ll definitely fall seriously ill again.”
Fu Shengying remained silent for a few seconds, then softened her tone towards Qin Man.
"As long as Youyou can come back safely, I won't go to your grandfather about this, but... we won't let this go so easily."
He was indeed disheartened by what Qin Feng and his son Qin Lu had done, but he could also hear from the previous recordings that Qin Man had been opposing them and urging them to confess.
Therefore, Qin Man was still able to distinguish right from wrong.
"Thank you, Uncle Fu." Seeing that everything had been seen through by the other party, Qin Man simply stopped trying to argue.
She was just worried that the old man would find it hard to accept if he knew all this.
After all, he valued the decades-long friendship between the Qin and Fu families the most.
If they knew what their older brother and Xiao Lu had done, they would probably be furious.
"What Han Zheng and the others do is none of my business, but from today onwards, the Fu family will cease all cooperation with the Qin family, and will never cooperate again." Fu Shengying's attitude was resolute.
