He was eighteen years old that year. If he hadn't been short of money for tuition, he would have been studying hard for the college entrance examination in a bright and clean classroom, instead of wearing dirty and tattered clothes and helping people carry bricks on a construction site.
Faced with the question from the person on the other end of the phone, Fang Min remained silent for a long time. "If I were you, I would also feel unbalanced, but I wouldn't be as extreme as you, insisting on replacing your own brother. Xiao Qinghan is clearly very good to you..."
"So good to me?!" Before Fang Min could finish speaking, the person on the other end of the phone immediately interrupted him, "Fang Min, you are not me, so of course your experience is different. Xiao Qinghan is good to me, but it's not really good. He's just pitying me. He's giving me charity like he's giving alms to a beggar. Why should he? He has the blood of the Xiao family flowing in his veins, and so do I. Why can he enjoy such a life for so many years and continue to do so, while I have to suffer for so many years and accept charity from others? I'm not convinced, I can't swallow this!"
“So…” Fang Min sighed, “When you impersonate Xiao Qinghan, you can easily control Qian Yue’e when you encounter her in a brothel.”
On the other end of the phone, Wang Gousheng, or rather Xiao Qinghan, admitted without the slightest hesitation, "Indeed, Qian Yue'e was the first woman who clung to me when I appeared in front of the world in place of Xiao Qinghan. Fang Min, you might not believe it, but Qian Yue'e was also my first woman. It's my fault for being inexperienced and getting her pregnant."
“I don’t want to know about what happened between you two,” Fang Min interrupted him. “I just want to know, is Xiao Qinghan—I mean, the real Xiao Qinghan—still alive?”
"My dear father-in-law," came a burst of laughter from the other end of the phone, "I think you're really getting old. The person you're talking to on the phone right now is none other than your son-in-law, Xiao Qinghan."
Fang Min took a deep breath. "An hour ago, Xiao Anhe came to see me. He asked me if I noticed anything unusual when I last saw you."
"Xiao Anhe?" Xiao Qinghan asked uncertainly, "You mean Xiao Anhe came to see you?"
Fang Min didn't want to waste her breath on meaningless topics, so she changed the subject directly, "I have a suggestion for you. Xiao Anhe is very smart, far smarter than you and me. If you don't want him to dig up these things, don't stay in the country anymore. Take your money and go wherever you want!"
Xiao Qinghan scoffed, "Fang Min, I'm not a three-year-old child. I'm not that easy to fool. I know exactly what you're planning. You just want to trick me into leaving. Only when I'm gone will your secrets be kept quiet. My dear father-in-law, don't worry. You are my father-in-law after all. I won't expose your dirty deeds until the very last step. Of course, relatives are relatives, but we still need to be reasonable. I need you to guarantee my safety, especially that Xiao Anhe can't steal Xiao Yang's property. Only then will I keep this a secret!"
Fang Min said nothing and chose to hang up the phone directly.
He was still holding the cell phone that only he knew about. At the study door, the butler knocked and said, "Master, General Manager Tian is here. Madam wants you to come downstairs."
