She also knew that when Qingqing was taken away, there must have been an insider, otherwise the man surnamed Zhuang would not have been able to disappear from the Lan family manor with Qingqing in broad daylight.
She didn't investigate who did it, but she did have some suspects. However, for her, both the palms and the backs of the hands were her flesh and blood, so she simply closed her eyes and ignored it.
"It's all the fault of those servants!"
The old lady cursed.
"Mom, what day was it yesterday? There was a party at home, and there were so many guests. Everyone was busy, and the flow of people was concentrated in the central courtyard. It was normal that no one was walking around there."
"It would be understandable to blame them for their dereliction of duty at other times, but they really can't be blamed for what happened last night."
The old lady was speechless for a moment.
It was she who decided the date for the banquet.
Who can be blamed?
"You must arrange a car immediately. Your father and I are going to the hospital to see Zhiping. You must investigate the matter of the second brother being knocked unconscious. If you are not available, let the second brother investigate it himself."
Compared with the injured second wife, the old lady was more worried about Lan Zhiping, who was hospitalized and had a sterilization.
The second wife is just a daughter-in-law.
Lan Zhiping is the flesh that fell from her body.
"good,"
Lan Rui did not refuse and immediately arranged a car for his parents. The bodyguards who followed him personally watched his parents leave for the hospital.
After seeing the two old people off, Lan Rui called the housekeeper again and told him that the surveillance camera was broken and he couldn't see who knocked the second wife unconscious. He asked the housekeeper to go to the second house and let Mr. Lan track down the real culprit himself.
The second wife and her husband were still blaming Lan Jie, believing that it was Lan Jie who knocked the second wife unconscious.
Lan Rui handed the matter over to their second branch to investigate. Second Master Lan and his son immediately began the investigation, mainly targeting Lan Jie.
After checking, it turned out that Lan Jie was the only one who left the center of the banquet. Lan Zheng, Lan Bin and Lan Yi from the second room did not leave. Mu Qing and his wife took their child back to their room to rest. Everyone saw it.
The second wife increasingly suspected that it was Lan Jie who did it.
How they doubt or what they do is their business, Lan Rui doesn't care.
Since he was determined to break the family rules and regulations that had existed for a hundred years, disband the entire Lan family, and stop them from sucking his blood, he was not afraid of internal strife. On the contrary, the more chaotic the better, which gave him a legitimate reason.
In the war-torn era of the past, the Lan clan's way of sticking together was still a good thing, at least it could resist foreign enemies.
But in today's peaceful era, this way of forming a group has changed. Human greed and ambition have given rise to many desires in everyone. It is a bottomless pit that can never be filled.
Only by disbanding the group, letting them fend for themselves, and then getting rid of those ambitious and scheming people one by one, can we return peace and tranquility to the next generation.
"Qingqing, Dad didn't come back until five in the morning. He only slept for two or three hours, and now his head is dizzy. Dad, please go out and get some cool air to wake yourself up."
Lan Rui made up an excuse and left his daughter and son-in-law behind.
As soon as he walked out of the main house, he whispered to a servant and asked, "Did you see which way the lady went?"
The servant replied respectfully, "Madam pushed Young Master Long towards the children's playground."
The Lan family manor is very large, so naturally there is a children's playground, which was previously used for Lan Zheng and his friends to play.
After Lan Zheng and the others grew up, the children's playground was basically idle. Only occasionally would Lan Min go there to play for a while.
"I understand. Go and do your work."
Lan Rui said this and left.
He took two steps, stopped, and turned back.
Mu Qing and her husband were whispering to each other. When they saw their father coming back, Mu Qing quickly sat up straight, a bit embarrassed on her pretty face. Ye Junbo, however, acted as if nothing had happened and asked with concern, "Did Dad forget anything?"
"It's cold outside, Dad, come back and get a coat."
Lan Rui felt quite uncomfortable when he saw his daughter and son-in-law whispering to each other.
Although his daughter was not raised by him, she was still the apple of his eye. He had not yet properly compensated his daughter before she was taken away by that pig Ye Junbo.
Ye Junbo: Didn’t my father-in-law also take away this cabbage from my mother-in-law?
Lan Rui: ...
Lan Rui hurried upstairs, took a coat, went downstairs, and hurried out again.
After he left, Mu Qing asked her husband, "Honey, I thought the coat my dad took was my mom's, right? I guess I wasn't mistaken."
"Yeah, damn, you didn't make a mistake."
Ye Junbo kissed her on the cheek and said with a smile, "Dad is going to buy Mom a coat. He's worried that she'll be cold."
"My mom has warmed up a little towards my dad, but I don't know when she'll warm up completely."
"Take your time. After all, Mom has been through so much heartbreak. How's your jewelry store preparation going? Have you found a partner for the raw stone materials?"
Mu Qing leaned in his arms and said, "My brother introduced me to a partner for raw stone materials. So, did you introduce anyone?"
Ye Junbo smiled and said, "Your husband, I am omnipotent. Of course, I can introduce you to someone good. However, your brother introduced you to someone good, so I won't take credit for your brother's work. If you need any help in the future, just tell your husband."
"Don't think that Fengchen Group has no influence in Wangcheng. In the business world, there are no city boundaries."
Fengchen Group’s branch in Wangcheng also officially started operations.
It is good to lean on the big tree of Lan Group for shade. Even if other big bosses in Wangcheng do not want Fengchen Group to open a branch, they cannot resist the help of Lan Group, and Fengchen Group itself is strong enough.
They all watched as the branch of Fengchen Group was established. The office building was quite tall, which made the bigwigs in Wangcheng very nervous. They seriously suspected that Fengchen Group was not opening a branch in Wangcheng, but wanted to move the entire Fengchen Group here.
Ye Junbo will not move.
But he can develop the branch into a new large group and share the profits with other bigwigs in Wangcheng!
"My brother is so enthusiastic, I feel embarrassed to refuse his enthusiastic help. In fact, I want to find partners based on my own abilities."
Mu Qing sighed, "However, with my brother's help, it will be easier. I will just enjoy the convenience my father and brother have brought me. Once my jewelry store opens, I believe that my mother and I will work together to make the business flourish."
"In order to let my mother's talent in design shine, I must work hard to run my jewelry store well."
Ye Junbo pinched her face lightly and said with a smile, "Business is as deep as the ocean. It's a place of intrigue and deception. It's not as easy as you think. If you really get involved in it, you'll understand that it's very difficult to make it on your own. Before you even make a name for yourself, you'll be crushed by your peers."
