Lan Zhi suspected her uncle and eldest cousin, but the father and son did not leave the banquet venue all night. Even her eldest cousin and his wife went upstairs because the child they picked up fell asleep.
If my mother hadn't gotten into trouble and alarmed everyone, my eldest cousin and her husband wouldn't have come.
Their family is really getting more and more chaotic.
Lan Zhi felt a little sad.
"I said I didn't knock out Second Auntie!"
Lan Jie yelled angrily.
It feels really bad to be wronged.
"Okay!"
Lan Rui scolded in a deep voice, "Don't make a fuss here. Your second aunt needs to rest. I will find out the truth of the matter."
He said to his second brother, "Second brother, take care of your family first. I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
Then he said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, it's late, and you're old. Go back and rest first. I've arranged for people to search the whole city for the third child. There will be results soon. Don't worry. No matter how cruel the third child's family is, they won't take his life for the sake of our three children."
If Ren Shuning killed the third child, how would their three children survive in the Lan family in the future?
What Ren Shuning values most now are her three children, and she will never harm them.
At most, it would just make his third brother suffer a little loss.
"Hurry up and take people to look for your third brother."
The old lady urged, "Who knows what the third brother's family might do to him in anger."
"Mom, I know. I'll take people out to look for it right away."
Lan Rui comforted his parents. The old patriarch was much calmer than the old lady and was not panicked. He also comforted his wife with a few words and then helped her out of the second son's room.
When I went downstairs, I saw the head of the Hei family and his daughter still sitting in the hall waiting for news.
Seeing them coming downstairs, Hei Ruoyue acted as if she was worried about Lan Zhiping and walked over quickly, but her eyes fell on Lan Rui. After the two looked at each other, Hei Ruoyue suppressed her inner emotions and asked Lan Rui: "What happened to Zhiping?"
"Ren Shuning told him she agreed to the divorce and had even written the divorce agreement, saying it was in her study. She asked Zhiping to go back with her to take a look and sign it if she had no objection. But Zhiping never came back. I went to his house and couldn't find him. Even Ren Shuning was gone."
Lan Rui said calmly, "Zhiping just felt a little unwell suddenly, and his wife took him to the hospital."
Then he said to the head of the Hei family, "Old Hei, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. It's getting late. You should take Ling Qianjin back to rest first."
The head of the Hei family knew that there was something fishy going on, but since it was someone else's family affair, he didn't want to ask any further. Even if his daughter and Lan Zhiping were having an affair, the two were not married yet and were not a family, so he had no right to ask too many questions.
Then he said politely: "If there is anything you need my help with, please feel free to ask. It's nothing. I will take Ruyue back to rest first."
Once the news that the second wife was knocked unconscious in the yard by an important person spread, the banquet, which was already coming to an end, ended early.
The guests left one after another.
The head of the Hei family stayed with his daughter because she refused to leave.
Now that Lan Rui has ordered him to leave, he can't stay any longer.
He also has many informants. After leaving the Lan family, he will let his people investigate and find out what happened tonight, why the second wife was beaten, and who was so cruel to her?
"Dad, I don't want to leave. I want to wait until Zhiping comes back. I want to know how Zhiping is doing."
Hei Ruoyue deliberately pretended to have a good relationship with Lan Zhiping, but she kept an eye on Lan Rui's expression, hoping to see jealousy on his face.
"What can he do? He has his wife taking care of him. Hurry up and go home with Dad."
The head of the Hei family glared at his daughter, reached out and grabbed her wrist, and pulled her away.
Hei Ruoyue didn't want to leave, but she couldn't beat her father, so she was taken away by her father forcefully.
After the car drove out of the Lan family manor, Hei Ruyue said to her father in a bad mood, "Dad, Lan Zhiping's illness definitely didn't happen suddenly. There must be something else going on. Aren't you always very interested in the Lan family's affairs? Tonight was such a good opportunity to watch the show, but Dad didn't even watch it."
"They've already ordered us to leave. If we stay there any longer, Lan Rui will definitely become suspicious. Maybe Lan Rui will even suspect that my father and I are behind this."
The head of the Hei family poked his daughter's forehead and said to her, "Your father doesn't know what you are thinking. You want to make Lan Rui jealous. Do you think that if you show that you care about Lan Zhiping, he will be jealous?"
After his son's speculation and analysis, the head of the Hei family felt more and more that Lan Rui had been taking advantage of his daughter.
Only the daughter remains infatuated.
"He's jealous. I just noticed that his face became even more tense, and he turned away from me. It's obvious that he doesn't want me to see that he's jealous. He feels uncomfortable."
Patriarch Hei: “…”
He was too lazy to talk to his daughter anymore. He took out his cell phone and called his people, instructing them to investigate what happened tonight to find out whether the drama in the Lan family tonight was an accident or someone planned it, and what the purpose was.
Hei Ruyue leaned back in the car seat and said, "It must have been that old woman Ren Shuning who planned this. Ever since what happened between me and Lan Zhiping, she's been like a madman. If I weren't my father's daughter, I don't know what she would have torn into pieces."
Even though she was the daughter of the Hei family, she was beaten several times by Ren Shuning, and her father was unable to seek justice for her in a fair and just manner. After all, Ren Shuning was the original wife.
"She's always refused to divorce, but tonight she suddenly agreed to a divorce. It's clear there's something fishy going on. But, let it be chaos, chaos is what I want. The more chaotic the better. If you mess with me, Hei Ruyue, I'm going to make their family live in turmoil!"
After a moment of silence, the head of the Hei family suddenly asked, "Did you see your brother tonight?"
“I see.”
"He didn't do anything?"
"Who knows? My brother and I don't get along. Besides, when I saw my brother, Zhiping and I were still halfway there. My brother probably left two or three hours ago."
Hearing that his son had left a few hours earlier, the head of the Hei family felt relieved a little, as long as his son did not act impulsively.
He called his son.
Hei Mingyu and his stand-in were put in sacks. Neither of them went to the hospital. Instead, they returned to Hei Mingyu's private residence and called a family doctor to check on them. Both of them suffered internal injuries and needed to take medicine for a period of time.
It was obvious that those who put them in sacks were determined to kill them.
If the two men had not been tough enough and had not escaped quickly, they would have been beaten to death there and no one would have known who the murderer was.
It is certain that it was the Lan family who did it.
