"I don't know who it was... Dad, Mom, Big Brother, please go and save my third brother. I saw him being helped out of the back door by his wife and Lan Jie, and then he was knocked unconscious."
The second wife didn't say who beat her, and she really didn't know, but she told everything she saw.
Lan Jie's face changed, and he immediately explained, "Second Aunt, my dad is not feeling well. My mom and I helped him go out to see a doctor. We were having a party at home, and we didn't want to alarm everyone, so we went out through the back door."
Lan Zheng looked at Lan Jie with a sharp gaze and said, "I could tell that Third Uncle was in good spirits since he came back. How could he suddenly feel unwell?"
"My dad must have been drunk and said he wasn't feeling well, so my mom quickly called me to help him get out."
Lan Jie lied.
The second wife said to her parents-in-law, "Mom and Dad, I saw that my third brother is unconscious. His wife and Lan Jie need to help him walk. If he really feels unwell, we have a family doctor at home. We can ask the doctor to check him out first."
"Second aunt, what do you mean? You are questioning what my mother and I did to my father."
The second wife remained silent, tacitly acknowledging that she was suspecting the third wife of doing something to harm Lan Zhiping.
Although she didn't say it explicitly, she suspected that it was Lan Jie who beat her up and knocked her unconscious because she saw something she shouldn't have seen.
"Ajie, where did your mother take your father? What's wrong with your father? Which hospital did your mother send him to?"
Lan Rui asked in a deep voice.
He didn't quite believe that Lan Jie would harm his third brother, but he couldn't guarantee whether his third brother's wife would do anything.
"Ajie, your parents are getting a divorce, and you know that your mom hates your dad so much. If you think your dad is really not feeling well, will your mom still be as caring and attentive to him as before?"
Lan Jie's face turned even paler.
Lan Bin probably guessed that his mother would murder his father. Although his emotional balance leaned towards his mother, he didn't want her to kill his father. He hurriedly asked his brother, "Lan Jie, tell me quickly, is Dad really sick or did you and Mom do something to him?"
"Where did Mom take Dad? Second Aunt was knocked unconscious. Was it you who did it?"
"It wasn't me!"
Lan Jie denied loudly, "I didn't knock Second Auntie out. I didn't even know she saw Mom and me. The whole road was quiet, not a soul in sight. The street lights were all dark for some reason."
"Second aunt, you can see me and my mother in this situation. Second aunt, have you been following us? What are you following us for?"
Lan Jie tried to divert everyone's attention to the second wife.
"Blue Jay!"
Lan Rui called out in a deep voice.
Lan Jie was afraid of this uncle. Seeing that the uncle had a dark face and looked at him with extremely sharp eyes, he knew that no one believed him.
Looking at the expressions of his grandparents, his grandmother was even urging him: "Lan Jie, tell me where your mother took your father. If your father was hurt by your mother, you are an accomplice. He is your biological father!"
Lan Jie's defenses collapsed in an instant. He said, "I don't know either. My mom said to take my dad to the hospital, but I don't know which hospital. It was my mom who contacted the hospital."
"Why did your mom take your dad to the hospital? Is your dad really not feeling well?"
No one believed that Lan Zhiping would suddenly become unwell.
When he and Hei Ruyue were being affectionate, they looked so smug that the old lady couldn't stand it. She wanted to slap her youngest son on the spot.
Because the manor was full of guests, the old lady held back and did not lose her temper, thinking that she would settle the score with her third son and teach him a lesson tomorrow.
He betrayed his family and was so arrogant, hurting the original wife's reputation in such a way that she wanted to beat him up.
But no matter how angry he was, he could not tolerate his daughter-in-law doing anything to hurt his youngest son.
Lan Bin knew that his mother wanted to have a vasectomy for his father.
But he pretended to know nothing at the moment. He and his younger brother could not be suspected by their grandparents at the same time, nor could they fall out of favor at the same time, otherwise their third branch would be really finished.
The mother asked her younger brother for help and removed him, also wanting to preserve the strength of the third branch. He is the strength of the third branch and the hope of the third branch.
Lan Bin would never admit that he was obsessed with Xu Susu. He was looking for opportunities to chat with Xu Susu all night long, trying to get closer to her. His mother might have seen that he had forgotten what he had promised her, so she asked his brother to help get his father out.
"Grandpa and grandma, don't worry. My dad did drink a lot. Maybe he really had a problem with the alcohol. That's why my mom asked my brother to take him to the hospital. Even though my parents are getting a divorce, they're still bound by love. They've been married for over 20 years, and there are three of us siblings. My mom won't do anything to hurt my dad."
Lan Bin comforted his grandparents.
Lan Rui was too lazy to ask any more questions. He took out his cell phone and made a call, ordering everyone to search the entire city for Lan Zhiping and his wife.
After giving the order, he looked at Lan Bin again and said in a deep voice, "Abin, if your father simply had a problem with drinking, why didn't your mother let Ajie accompany him to the hospital?"
His third brother is definitely in danger now.
Lan Rui guessed the result in his heart, but for the sake of face, he was not only the head of the family, but also Lan Zhiping's elder brother, so he always had to show his concern for his younger brother.
Lan Bin was speechless and could only look at Lan Jie. Lan Jie explained, "My mother said the party wasn't over yet, so she asked me to come back and accompany the guests. She would take my father to the hospital alone."
Finally, he emphasized again: "Uncle, I didn't knock Second Auntie out. I really don't know where Second Auntie was knocked unconscious. I didn't even know Second Auntie was following me and my mother, and I don't know what Second Auntie wanted to do by being so sneaky."
"Who followed you? I was looking for my pet dog. I accidentally saw you and your son sneaking out the back door with your third brother. I followed them quietly. Who knew you would retaliate and beat me up like this?"
Second Young Master Lan immediately glared at Lan Jie, looking as if he was ready to attack him at any time.
Lan Zhi held him tightly. The situation was unclear. If his brother took action, he might hit the wrong person and be scolded.
Lan Zhi believed that the person who knocked her mother unconscious was not Lan Jie, but she couldn't guess who did it.
This move has dragged the second and third wives into this. No one will benefit, and no one can stay out of it.
Regardless of the truth, both families suffered losses.
