"Aunt Zheng, you mean you've seen that man?"
Ling Jin nodded: "I saw him more than 20 years ago, but it shouldn't be him. That person was about the same age back then."
I saw him at the Ye family mansion. At that time, he was somewhat different from the young man I had just met; he seemed more profound. He was looking for the old man.
The old man also gave the man a warm welcome. As soon as the man arrived, he was led to the study. As for what was said to him, no one else knew except for the man himself.
........
In fact, if Ling Jin had known the content of that man's conversation with Old Master Ye back then, none of what happened afterward would have occurred.
That person was none other than Tang Zeqi's uncle. When the Tang family came to the Ye family, the family was already on the verge of collapse. What outsiders did not know was that the Tang family and the Ye family actually had a deeper relationship.
The two families seem to have little interaction on a regular basis, but in private, they have a relationship unknown to outsiders.
This dates back many years. It is said that a young lady from the Tang family married a young master from a direct branch of the Ye family, and the two families were related by marriage.
But because it happened so long ago, probably during the Republican era, almost no one knows about it now, especially now.
Back then, when Uncle Tang approached Old Master Ye, it was about the Su family.
However, it was clear that there was insufficient evidence at the time, and Old Master Ye was helpless. As a result, things spiraled out of control, and the Tang family collapsed overnight.
Ling Jin was able to remember it so clearly because that day was too special; it was the day that woman, Su Yun, came to him with the bloodline report.
For Ye Wanying and Gao Dan, Ling Jin's words seemed to have a deeper meaning.
My biological mother met the Tang family many years ago. What's the situation between the Tang family and the Ye family?
Gao Dan was also puzzled. Despite his status as a member of the Gu family and his later ability to access almost all confidential information, he hadn't managed to find out anything about this.
This shows how well the news was kept secret!
Or perhaps, apart from the two parties involved, no one else knew?
Otherwise, there really wouldn't be any other reason.
.........
Then, unbeknownst to the people in the shop, when Tang Zeqi took Pei Pei out, they happened to run into Qian You, the big boss, who was rushing over.
The two men stopped in their tracks the moment their eyes met.
"Brother Qi?"
Pei Pei called out curiously.
Tang Zeqi narrowed his eyes slightly and patted Pei Pei's shoulder: "You get in the car first. If we run into someone we know, I'll go say hello."
Pei Pei naturally had no objections. Although she had doubts, she never inquired about matters concerning her brother Qi.
"good!"
She obediently got into the car. There was a driver in the car, who automatically rolled down the window when he saw Pei Pei get in.
Tang Zeqi had already approached Qian You:
"Not enough money?"
Qian You smiled and said, "So it's Young Master Tang. I thought I was seeing things. What's up? Why are you in B City? Not staying in your old haunts anymore?"
From their conversation, it was clear that the two were definitely acquainted.
Indeed, the Tang family collapsed more than 20 years ago, and the Qian family also withdrew from the capital around the same time. They were both from prominent families, so they must have known each other back then.
In that case, there seems to be nothing that I can't understand.
Tang Zeqi looked at Qian You and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this, Qian You curled his lips again: "I said, only you, Young Master Tang, can come, but I, Qian, cannot?"
