"Thank you, Mr. Chen."
Xue Dong readily agreed, nodded and hung up the phone.
So... Chen Wenxuan's brows couldn't help but frown.
His last sentence was more of a test.
Whether it was the relationship between Chen Li and the Yun family in Shanghai, or the relationship between the Yun family and the genius doctor Lu, Xue Dong had never mentioned it to him in the previous call.
And when he asked this question at this time, Xue Dong was not surprised.
Obviously, his guess was correct. Xue Dong called him because he had already investigated some things.
After all, Chen Wenxuan is an old hand at the ways of the world, and compared to him, Xue Dong is obviously too young.
But Xue Dong's identity meant that he didn't need to think so much. If he wanted to know something, he could just ask someone who knew.
But today... Xue Dong really miscalculated.
Then again, even if Xue Dong racked his brains, he could not have imagined that not only the Chen family, but even the daughter of the Yun family was engaged to Jiang Bei.
After hanging up the phone.
Chen Wenxuan then called Chen Li and told her about this.
It’s not that they repeated Xue Dong’s words and really went to ask the Yun family about Jiangbei, but... the brother and sister began to analyze the reasons why Xue Dong did this.
As a woman from the Chen family, Chen Li is not a scheming person, but she is definitely not simple-minded.
Especially as a woman, she is very smart and always thinks of details that Chen Wenxuan cannot notice.
Otherwise, even if the Yun family has had some help from the Chen family over the years, it is still difficult for the Chen family to directly support the Yun family as they are far away in the imperial capital.
Although the rise of the Yun family was related to the Chen family to a certain extent, it was even more inseparable from Chen Li's assistance.
"Lily, what do you think about this?" Chen Wenxuan asked in a serious tone.
Chen Li on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before she said, "Brother... I'm afraid Xue Dong has some plans when he called."
"To Mr. Jiang?" Chen Wenxuan's voice paused.
"Divine Doctor Lu has been away from the Yun family for so many years, and there has been no news. Even if someone in the Xue family is seriously ill, they would not look for Divine Doctor Lu at this time. As for Jiangbei... no one knows how good his medical skills are. There must be a famous divine doctor in the imperial capital."
Faced with Chen Li's explanation, Chen Wenxuan nodded.
"So I think... the Xue family may have known that Jiang Bei is the disciple of Dr. Lu, and they want to find him, but they don't know where he is, so they want to get information from us." Chen Li said again.
"So, should we give this news or not?" Chen Wenxuan's voice became heavier.
After Chen Li's analysis, Chen Wenxuan also realized the more serious aspect of this matter, even if it was only a certain possibility.
But this is about Jiangbei... It's about his son-in-law! He can't be careless!
"You have to wait." Chen Li responded.
"What are you waiting for?" Chen Wenxuan was really confused this time.
"If nothing unexpected happens, the Chen family has already arrived in Shanghai." Chen Li chuckled, "But they don't have a suitable excuse to come to my Yun family and ask for answers directly, so they called you and used the strength of the Xue family's main branch to seek convenience from the imperial capital."
"hiss……"
Chen Wenxuan secretly gave a thumbs up, sister, sister, it has to be you!
"So we just need to wait and see what the identity of this person from the Yun family is, whether he is a man or a woman... Then we will know."
"Male or female?" Chen Wenxuan realized something.
"If it's a woman, and she's in her early twenties, then she must have come for Jiangbei!"
Chen Wenxuan also knew what this meant for Jiangbei!
"I suspect... someone from the Xue family may have seen Jiang Bei and found out that he is the disciple of Dr. Lu. It just so happens that Jiang Bei is not in Shanghai recently." Chen Li said.
"It's possible, but not very likely." Chen Wenxuan said in a deep voice, "The Xue family is a hidden family, also known as an ancient martial arts family. The Xue family members have been ancient martial artists since ancient times. They won't do anything to a disciple of a genius doctor. Moreover, although Jiang Bei has served in the army and is even the King of the Northern Territory, he may not be able to defeat the masters of the Xue family."
This is also true.
At least Chen Li thinks so.
Ancient warriors... in their cognition, are different from ordinary people.
The secretaries in his family have many skills. After successfully practicing, they can not only move mountains and fill the sea, fly into the sky and hide in the ground, but also float on a leaf and stroll on the water like in TV dramas.
After a while, Chen Li said, "Well, you can call and tell them that the Yun family has some news. It would be best if we can have a face-to-face meeting."
"good!"
After the phone call was hung up.
Chen Li began to prepare the ingredients to receive the guests for tonight.
Chen Wenxuan did not hesitate and called Xue Dong back to tell him about the matter.
One can hear Xue Dong’s joy from his tone!
And he did not hide anything and directly told Xue Yu that he was in Shanghai at the moment and could visit the Yun family tonight.
Chen Wenxuan's voice paused. Chen Li really guessed it right!
And after a few interactions, Chen Wenxuan and Xue Dong became familiar with each other.
As a result, under Chen Wenxuan's urging, Xue Dong did not hold back and directly told Chen Wenxuan his and Xue Yu's identities.
At that time, Chen Wenxuan almost fainted.
Originally... he combined Chen Li's statement and added his own guess.
Change "A third-generation young man from the Xue family fell in love with Chen Ningshuang" to "A third-generation young lady from the Xue family fell in love with Jiang Bei".
But no one would have expected that Xue Dong was actually the eldest son of the patriarch of the Xue family, and would take over the position of patriarch of the Xue family in the future!
And that Xue Yu is the eldest daughter of Xue Dong!
Things seem to be getting serious...
So why did Xue Yu come to Shanghai to find Jiang Bei in person?
In the second half of the call, although Chen Wenxuan appeared to be still natural on the surface, his heart was beating fast and he wanted to find an excuse to hang up the phone.
…
Not long after.
Chen Li received news from Chen Wenxuan and finally knew who the visitor was.
She was right.
It’s indeed a woman!
She is also the granddaughter of the head of the Xue family!
And...I will come to visit you tonight!
Why are you in such a hurry?
While thinking about this, Chen Li asked people to prepare a dinner to entertain the eldest daughter of the third generation of the Xue family.
This sudden scene even startled Yun Zhongshan, who had just got off work.
"Wife, this is...are there any distinguished guests at home tonight?"
Chen Li opened her mouth, but didn't know how to explain.
Because of Yun Zhongshan's identity, he has no chance of coming into contact with such a hidden family.
Although the Yun family is also a first-tier family, it is still a long way from being comparable to the Xu family.
"A distinguished guest from the imperial capital, the granddaughter of the Xue family's patriarch, is here to visit. The Xue family cannot be explained in a few words, but their status... is higher than that of my Chen family."
"hiss!"
Hearing the sound, Yun Zhongshan took a breath of cold air.
Yun Zhongshan knew very well what kind of existence the Chen family was! Now there was someone in the imperial capital who was even more outrageous than the Chen family, and she was the eldest granddaughter!
Why did you come to the Yun family on purpose?
As a couple for more than 20 years, Chen Li understood the confusion in Yun Zhongshan's eyes and explained, "I came to look for Jiangbei."
Yun Zhongshan was completely dumbfounded.
This is the legendary... the weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken, does he have bad intentions?
