Chapter 87 shrouded in mystery
Lu Yi stopped in his tracks. "What do you mean?"
Ye Ran's expression was grave. "I always felt it wasn't that simple..."
That person has been secretly plotting for so many years, there's no reason for them to suddenly become so impatient and so full of loopholes...
besides……
Even at the very end of his past life, Xu Qingyan lived a very comfortable life...
Although I don't know what happened between you and the Yun family in your past life, I can imagine that there was no peaceful coexistence between you.
In your past life, you built such a large business; you must have been the winner.
In that case, Xu Qingyan's backer would have fallen, so why is he still doing well?
This means... there must be someone else behind him!
And this person...
Hiding behind the Yun family's residence, they never revealed their whereabouts, remaining hidden until the very end!
Lu Yi also realized what was happening, and his expression gradually darkened. "It seems... the Yun family has been pushed out as a scapegoat..."
Ye Ran nodded, "I guess so..."
This person really has a flawless plan...
Even Grandma Ran and the others were fooled. We absolutely cannot let our guard down for even a moment…
Lu Yi's expression remained grim. "For now... let's not tell Grandma and the others about this..."
To avoid them worrying too much and falling seriously ill, let them relax for now...
This matter... I'll discuss it properly with my parents after they arrive...
However, there is absolutely no information about this person now…
Ye Ran suddenly grabbed Lu Yi's hand, "No... there might be a few people who know a little bit of information..."
Lu Yi's eyes lit up. "Who is it?"
Ye Ran smiled. "We've all overlooked a blind spot: Xu Qiang..."
Xu Qiang is such a shrewd and cautious person, there's no way he wouldn't have noticed something...
Judging from the current situation, he must know something…
Lu Yi smiled upon hearing this, "Indeed... However... getting him to speak is not an easy task..."
Ye Ran's lips curled into a sly smile. "Perhaps we're using the wrong method. There's always a way to get him to talk..."
Lu Yi chuckled and stretched, "Hmm...it seems we still need to have some more dealings with Xu Qiang..."
Ye Ran smiled knowingly, but then, as if remembering something, she sighed...
"What's wrong?" Lu Yi frowned, somewhat puzzled...
Ye Ran sighed again, "Logically speaking, there should be at least one other person who knows something..."
Lu Yi immediately became excited and asked, "Who?"
Ye Ran looked somewhat sad. "My mother told me. Originally..."
My maternal grandfather had a wet nurse brother, who was the son of his wet nurse. He grew up with my maternal grandfather from a young age.
That grandfather was a few years older than my maternal grandfather. He took good care of him since he was a child, and their relationship was closer than that of brothers!
He knows everything about my maternal grandfather, even things that I myself don't know...
So, if it's him, he must know something...
And he will definitely tell us…”
Lu Yi was somewhat puzzled, "Isn't this a good thing?"
"We can just go and ask him!"
Ye Ran shook her head, "It's no use..."
Lu Yi frowned. "Is he... already dead?"
Ye Ran sighed and denied it, "No..."
"Yes... he's gone mad..."
Lu Yi was stunned, "How did he go crazy..."
Ye Ran couldn't bear it and covered her chest with her hand. "This grandfather was extremely loyal to my maternal grandfather. When the Bai family was in trouble, he always believed in my maternal grandfather..."
They had been helping with everything inside and out, and one day...
My grandfather was taken to a place, and he went with him...
He had to be carried back...
He was completely covered in blood, and had been beaten beyond recognition...
Even his leg was broken. My mother spent all her remaining savings to get a doctor to pull him back from the brink of death...
When he woke up, he had already gone mad...
That was the time...
My grandfather was taken away and never came back…
Lu Yi's expression was serious. "Then, has he shown any unusual behavior over the years?"
Ye Ran shook her head, "I don't know..."
After that incident, the grandfather's family moved away with him and never let my mother visit again..."
Lu Yi rubbed his palms together, deep in thought. "I always feel..."
He must have seen something...
Where did they move to?
Ye Ran thought for a moment, "It seems they moved to a small village on the outskirts of the city, which is the maternal home of that grandfather and his wife."
"Then let's find an opportunity to go and take a look!"
If he truly knows nothing, then we can consider it a visit and offer him a generous gift...
If he still has a shred of consciousness, or rather...
There is a possibility that it can be cured...
"So...this is our unexpected bonus..."
Ye Ran nodded, agreeing with his suggestion, "Okay! I'll go home and find out my mom's address, then we'll go!"
The two walked back to the entrance of the Ye family's house. Lu Yi smiled reassuringly at her, "Alright..."
So much has happened today, I know you're worried too, but we're all in this together now...
That person is no longer just your enemy; he is now the enemy of everyone in the Lu and Yan families…
With so many people together, we're sure we can find that person, expose his disguise, and then avenge the three families' feud!
Ye Ran smiled with relief, "Mmm... I'm not afraid..."
Now I have my parents, and you...
In this life... we will definitely be the ones who have the last laugh!
"Hmm... Go back and rest!"
Don't think about anything tonight, just have a good dream...
"Okay! Bye-bye then, be careful on your way home..."
"good……"
The two then parted ways. Although they said they were relaxed, both young people had many worries on their minds...
Tonight, the two elderly people, who had been worried for several years, finally slept soundly...
Conversely, the two young people accumulated even greater pressure...
This is the passing of the torch from generation to generation; new responsibilities always fall to the younger generation…
Meanwhile, the Xu family was also in complete chaos...
