After returning to Kyoto, Chen Shulan met Chen Yaoguang, the patriarch of the Chen family.
Chen Shulan was very careful when speaking in front of Chen Yaoguang, afraid that she would be scolded if she said something wrong.
Chen Yaoguang is the patriarch of the Chen family and the person who can decide Chen Shulan's fate, so Chen Shulan is very cautious.
After spending some time in Qianyuan County, Chen Shulan returned to the Chen family in Kyoto with mixed feelings.
When her family handed her over to their extended family, her fate was no longer in her own hands. If she wanted a better future, she would have to work harder and have more leverage.
If the Han family hadn't had no daughters and she hadn't been so beautiful, she wouldn't have received the education of a noble lady and been sent to get close to Han Yixian.
If she could truly marry Han Yixian and become a daughter-in-law of the Han family, that would be an incredible stroke of luck. Han Yixian is the only son of the Han family and their future heir. Moreover, now that Han Xiao has stepped down, Han Yixian has taken over all the power of the Han family and has even begun to fulfill the duties of the family head.
So Han Yixian's wife was the matriarch of the Han family. Many women coveted this position. But in the end, it was taken by a village girl who grew up in the countryside, a fact that left many feeling regretful.
Originally, some families in Kyoto believed that Han Yixian was indifferent to women and showed no interest in any woman around him. Everyone was secretly watching, ready to have their daughters take action if Han Yixian showed any interest in a woman.
But no one expected that Han Yixian would ultimately be won over by He Yuhan. Many families knew about He Yuhan's incident in Kyoto back then. Everyone thought she was dead. Unexpectedly, not only did He Yuhan survive, but she also married into the Han family, catching everyone completely off guard.
Everyone wondered what made He Yuhan so special as to become the future matriarch of the Han family. But gradually, everyone realized that He Yuhan was no ordinary person, and it was no wonder that Han Yixian had taken a liking to her.
Chen Shulan recounted her experiences in Qianyuan County.
Chen Yaoguang frowned and said with a gloomy face, "So your plan was sabotaged unintentionally, rather than intentionally?"
Chen Shulan said, "Grandpa, through my investigation, I found that Liu Jiaxin also likes Han Yixian, which is why she pays close attention to everything about Han Yixian, especially the women who appear in front of him."
That Liu Jiaxin is utterly unreasonable and irrational. If it weren't for her antics, this situation wouldn't have arisen.
However, I also discovered something else. It seems that the messages weren't just sent by Liu Jiaxin alone; other forces appeared to be involved. As for who they were targeting, I have no idea.
Chen Yaoguang frowned and said, "It seems that it wasn't just us who sent people there; there must be other forces that have also entered Qianyuan County. You'll have to be even more careful in the future."
You've already aroused Han Yixian's suspicion, and I doubt you'll be able to get close to him for the time being. I think you should leave Qianyuan County and come back first.”
Chen Shulan felt a pang of panic upon hearing this. She knew that once her great-grandfather had sent her back, he might not let her go to Qianyuan County again. He might send other girls from the Chen family to approach Han Yixian.
If she returned to Kyoto, she would likely be arranged to marry someone else as part of a political alliance. In that case, she would rather marry Han Yixian. None of the unmarried men in Kyoto could compare to Han Yixian.
Han Yixian was not only handsome and possessed a noble air, but he was also highly capable, making him an exceptionally outstanding man. Moreover, he was the future head of the Han family.
Han Yixian has so many accolades that even though he has been away from Kyoto for several years, no one can ignore him.
Only an outstanding man like Han Yixian is worthy of her. She doesn't want to marry a man she knows nothing about, who may be incapable or even very old.
Chen Shulan quickly said, "Grandpa, I am now very familiar with Qianyuan County and know a lot about the Han family. I can stay in Qianyuan County to continue to monitor the Han family's movements."
Moreover, this was just a rumor, which has already been stopped by the factory leaders and will soon be forgotten. I think Han Yixian will forget about it soon too.
The main reason is that I haven't taken any action yet, and I haven't left a bad impression on Han Yixian. I think I still have a great chance after this matter is over.
Even though I can't approach Han Yixian now, I can sabotage their relationship by working on He Yuhan. As long as rumors spread that He Yuhan is having an affair with another man, and as long as Han Yixian becomes suspicious, I can slowly create cracks between them.
I learned that Gu Qishen, the eldest son of the Gu family, lives in Qianyuan County and is even a neighbor of the Han family. Gu Qishen and his father even eat together with the Han family. It's inevitable that something might happen between this single man and He Yuhan, given their frequent interactions.
Zhou Zhengye also arrived in Qianyuan County. Moreover, he works in the same unit as He Yuhan. This is another place where they could make their move.
Zhou Zhengye's wife didn't go to Qianyuan County with him, so he was alone there. A man without his wife by his side is bound to feel lonely.
If Zhou Zhengye's wife, Wang Guixiang, were to suspect that Zhou Zhengye and He Yuhan were having an affair, given Wang Guixiang's temperament, she would definitely go to Qianyuan County and make a scene.
Even if He Yuhan and Zhou Zhengye have nothing going on, some people will inevitably have doubts. It would be even better if Han Yixian's parents could dislike He Yuhan or if Han Yixian could become suspicious of her.
Even without suspicion, this will keep the Han family from having peace. Perhaps the Wang family will also take action against the Zhou and Han families.
Chen Yaoguang's eldest son, Chen Hongda, was also sitting in the living room. Hearing Chen Shulan's words, his eyes lit up and he said, "Dad, Shulan's plan sounds good. If it's executed well, it can achieve three goals at once. It can disrupt the harmony of the Han family and throw them into disarray, while the Wang family might also be dragged into it."
We don't need to do it ourselves; we just need to find someone to put in a good word with Wang Guixiang.
The Wang family is currently riding high, so perhaps we could use the Han and Zhou families to dampen their momentum. It would be even better if they could start fighting each other.
Chen Yaoguang frowned and thought for a long time before nodding and saying, "Shulan's plan sounds good."
Perhaps when Han Yixian begins to doubt He Yuhan, Shulan can take the opportunity to show concern for him. Maybe then she will gain Han Yixian's favor.
However, Shulan, your plan needs further refinement; it absolutely must not show any trace of involvement from the Chen family.
Upon hearing her great-grandfather's words, Chen Shulan knew that she had temporarily passed the test. She could return to Qianyuan County to carry out her plan again.
He Yuhan was unaware that someone in faraway Kyoto had devised a vicious plan to target her. She was still designing new products, her life revolving between the factory and home. Everything was going smoothly if it weren't for her occasional meetings with Zhou Zhengye.
