Chapter 605 Key Figures
"If you really think about it, he was the one who coveted me first..." Gu Ziheng retorted.
Xu Xiuyuan: "You still say that!"
Gu Ziheng: “…”
Hearing this conversation, Suman cried even harder.
So, whether it is just a dream or souls really exist in the world.
The Xiao Beisheng she saw just now was not the real, living Xiao Beisheng.
Xiao Tian looked at Su Man's tears, and her eyes also turned red.
"Stop talking!" she yelled at everyone.
Xu Xiuyuan and the others shut up.
Xiao Tian hugged Su Man and cried with her, "Wow, Teacher Su... I'm so sad too..."
Gao Xun walked up to the statue of the God of Wealth, inspected it from side to side, and finally straightened it and walked back, "I didn't find anything unusual."
Finally, Su Man calmed down.
Xiao Tian clung to Su Man and insisted on going back to Manyuan with Su Man to sleep for one night.
The group left the "W" around midnight.
However, none of them noticed that there was an umbrella standing next to the sofa where Su Man had just fallen asleep.
If Su Man looked carefully, she could also find that it was the umbrella that Xiao Beisheng had just held to shield her from the rain.
The metal handle of the umbrella stood on the ground, and rainwater flowed all over the ground.
-
Xiao Tian finally rested in Man Garden.
After the chaos, peace and tranquility reigned.
It was early morning when Su Man woke up.
Beside him, Xiao Tian was sleeping peacefully.
She had been tired for a long time and finally got a good night's sleep. Suman did not wake her up.
Instead, he got up quietly and went downstairs to prepare breakfast.
These days, she has been learning how to make baby food with Ye Ling at home.
After achieving some success, she always liked to go to the kitchen by herself. Doudou loved the food she made every time, and she felt a sense of accomplishment.
Unexpectedly,
Someone is already in the kitchen.
It's quite a big commotion.
Su Man thought it was Ye Ling inside, but she heard a series of crisp jingling and banging sounds.
This probably caused all the pots and pans to fall to the ground.
Not Ye Ling.
Ye Ling would not get into such a big trouble.
Then, Su Changhai's accusations came from the kitchen: "I told you that you are not cut out for cooking. You just don't have the talent for cooking! Why do you have to come and make trouble?"
"I came to the kitchen first, and you followed me here." Bai Lan said coldly.
"If I didn't come to watch you, would you have blown up your daughter's kitchen? Also, is the food you cooked still food? Aren't you really going to poison our family?"
Su Man has already walked to the kitchen door.
Through the archway and the drawn curtains, you can see a glimpse of what's going on inside.
Bai Lan squatted down and tried to pick up the pots and pans on the ground.
Su Changhai watched coldly from the side.
After Bai Lan cleaned up the undamaged kitchen utensils, he went to pick up the ceramic fragments on the floor.
Su Changhai was still watching coldly.
Su Man felt that her father was sometimes quite ungraceful.
It would be fine if he didn't help clean up, but seeing Bai Lan doing such a dangerous thing, he should have stopped him. What if Bai Lan's hand was scratched by the ceramic fragments?
As soon as he thought of this, Bai Lan's hand suddenly retracted.
There was a small cut on the fingertip, and bright red blood quickly seeped out.
But Bai Lan's reaction was limited to that moment.
She saw the wound clearly, but seemed not to feel any pain. She took out a few tissues from the side, wrapped them around her hands, and continued to pick up the porcelain pieces with an expressionless face.
"Oh, please get out of here! It makes me upset just looking at you." Su Changhai pushed Bai Lan away angrily.
Su Changhai took a broom and cleaned the floor, then started the robot vacuum cleaner to clean up the tiny broken porcelain pieces on the floor that were difficult to see with the naked eye.
"Stretch out your hand, let me see it." Su Changhai ordered reluctantly.
"Need not."
Su Changhai walked over and grabbed Bai Lan's hand.
When Su Man saw this, she understood what he meant and turned around and slowly went back upstairs.
These days, Bai Lan has been living with Su Man.
Su Changhai always finds excuses to come to Manyuan, which is no different from living here.
He used the excuse that he was visiting Su Man and his little grandson, but Su Man knew that Bai Lan was also one of the reasons.
They lived together under the same roof.
Su Man could also sense some clues. Su Changhai was not as disgusted, hateful and heartless towards Bai Lan as he appeared to be.
On the contrary, Bai Lan's attitude is unclear.
Always indifferent to people.
Only when she was with Su Man did she act a little different.
"Manman." Bai Lan chased out from the kitchen.
Su Man was startled.
She originally wanted to leave some time for Su Changhai and Bai Lan to be alone, so how did Bai Lan discover her?
"What's wrong?"
"There's something I want to tell you." Bai Lan said.
The mother and daughter went to the study.
Bai Lan said solemnly, "I know you went to Dingsheng yesterday. You're actually very concerned about what will happen to the Xiao Corporation in the future, right?"
"I just can't bear to see a villain succeed. Besides, Dingsheng is his hard work..."
"Then do you want to help him defend the peak?" Bai Lan looked at Su Man with burning eyes.
Su Man hesitated: "What does this mean?"
"Just tell me, do you want to?"
"Dingsheng's surname is Xiao, and that's the Xiao family's property. Beisheng and I divorced a long time ago. I'm an outsider, so how can I have the qualifications to do anything?"
"Madam Xiao came to you personally, do you still think you are not qualified? This matter clearly depends on whether you are willing or not."
Su Man knew that she now had bargaining chips.
Su Changhai recognized her, and she was no longer an orphan with no one to rely on.
Old Madam Xiao came to see her because she valued this point.
It has become an unwritten rule that big families seek cooperation from gray forces, or even seek asylum.
"The Luo family and the Yu family have been eyeing Dingsheng for a long time. This game has been set up long time ago. I don't have the confidence to fight them, and there is no way to break through." Su Man had actually thought about it thousands of times, but she had no clue every time.
"What if I tell you I have leverage that can help you fight against the Luo and Yu families?"
Bai Lan had a mysterious look on his face.
Under Su Man's bewildered gaze, Bai Lan took out a file bag. "Here's the list and information of officials connected to Luo Jinliang that I got from Luo Yan earlier. Most of the evidence I sent people to collect is also in here. With this, bringing down the Luo family won't be a problem."
Su Man looked at the bag in front of her, dumbfounded.
Bai Lan continued:
"Also, Luo Yan previously revealed a lot of information about the Yu family to me in order to win me over. Yu Qionghua is a key figure in the Yu family. Luo Yan appears to be expressing his loyalty to me, but in reality, he intends to use me to deal with Yu Qionghua. This despicable person is truly full of cunning and treacherous calculations! However, this also shows that Yu Qionghua and Yu Hanming are not on the same side. On the contrary, they may even be enemies."
"The Yu family has three branches. The eldest sister, Yu Qionghua, embodies the bravery of the old man back then and is the current leader of the Yu family. She has devoted herself to the family business and has never married or had children in her life. The second sister, Yu Qionglin, was spoiled since childhood and found a son-in-law who was submissive. The couple only knew how to write and paint all day, obsessed with art. Their son is also a slacker and will never amount to anything. Only the third branch remains. The third young master, Yu Yang, has no ambitions, but his son with Tao Jinmei is ambitious. Although Yu Hanming is an illegitimate child, he has gradually shown his claws over the years and has won the favor of old man Yu."
Bai Lan slowly analyzed and explained the pros and cons.
Su Man understood. "So, if Luo Yan helps Yu Hanming to bring down Yu Qionghua, the legitimate daughter, the Yu family will only be ruled by Yu Hanming, the illegitimate son, and Luo Yan will also be able to get a piece of the pie."
After silently sorting out these relationships in her mind, Su Man raised her eyes.
"Why are you helping the Xiao family for me? Do you want to use me to do something? Is the unfinished business between you and Black Hawk related to these major families?"
Bai Lan suddenly smiled.
