Chapter 120: The shadow of the Meng family is growing



Looking at An An's appearance, Jiang Xiachu's eyes darkened and he looked at her carefully.

One can indeed see some traces of the Meng family in An An's every move.

Although she was not a stunning beauty at first sight, she was very attractive and a pretty girl, very similar to Aunt Meng.

Especially those eyebrows and eyes, they look like they were carved from the same mold.

Although the paternity test report will not be available for a few days.

But looking at An An's appearance, Jiang Xiachu had already made up his mind about 70% of the truth.

It is estimated that An An is most likely the real daughter of the Meng family, and Meng Wanyue is the culprit who framed An An.

Lin Qingli was also sitting nearby, looking at the gentle expression in An An's eyes and eyebrows, and an idea flashed through his mind.

She sat down next to Jiang Xiachu, looked at An An, tugged at the corner of Jiang Xiachu's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Xiachu, looking at An An's appearance, I feel that she should be a few years older than us."

Jiang Xiachu nodded.

She also noticed that although An An was a little confused because she had been away from home for many years and had been exposed to too much stimulation, she kept calling her sister.

But judging from her temperament and appearance, she should be a few years older than them, so they should call her Sister An An.

"If Meng Wanyue knew all this, then she must be in cahoots with the traffickers."

Jiang Xiachu looked at Lin Qingli with a stern expression and spoke in a deep voice.

Lin Qingli nodded: "I think it's very likely that all of this was planned by Meng Wanyue."

Although I don't know what her purpose is in replacing someone else's identity, it's obvious that it's not a good thing.

An An was badly harmed by her. She should have been spoiled by her parents, but she has suffered for so many years.

They just didn't expect that people could be so bad.

He's already rotten at such a young age.

Jiang Xiachu thought of Meng Wanyue's expression when he met her yesterday, and sneered: "But looking at her personality, even if we throw the paternity report in her face, she probably won't admit it."

Lin Qingli was a little worried: "What should we do? Are we going to watch her exonerate herself?"

Jiang Xiachu shook her head: "She took away the life that should have belonged to An An, and made An An suffer for so many years. I can't just let her go."

The bad guys should be punished accordingly.

"Then what should we do? If she doesn't admit it, there's nothing we can do. After all, so many years have passed, and An An herself doesn't even remember what happened before..."

Jiang Xiachu's eyes fell on An An, and his tone was calm: "If she was in cahoots with the traffickers, with her personality, it is impossible that she had no contact with the traffickers over the years."

"As long as we continue to investigate, we will definitely find some clues."

She also discussed this matter with Fang Yingqiu, and she also felt the same way and suggested starting with the human traffickers.

It can even be used to catch human traffickers in one fell swoop.

Lin Qingli lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and then asked: "Xia Chu, should we discuss this with Lu Huaiyan? It's such a big matter, maybe he can help."

Jiang Xiachu pursed her lips and shook her head, "He is the last person to be asked. Although he has no private feelings for Meng Wanyue, there is still a layer of relationship between him and his brother who entrusted him with his deathbed. It is not appropriate to ask him to deal with Meng Wanyue."

After all, the person who was with Lu Jingyuan was Meng Wanyue. No matter what Meng Wanyue's identity was, she was Lu Jingyuan's wife and his sister-in-law.

If you ask him for help, he might hesitate.

After hearing what Jiang Xiachu said, Lin Qingli was a little stunned, as if he had heard some fairy tale.

She frowned and looked at Jiang Xiachu several times.

When Xia Chu was young, the most important person in her heart was Lu Huaiyan.

At that time, even if it was a trivial matter, she would go to Lu Huaiyan to share it.

But now, everything has changed.

Lin Qingli carefully observed Jiang Xiachu's expression, but found that she looked indifferent and extremely calm.

Seeing this, Lin Qingli couldn't help but gently tug at Jiang Xiachu's sleeve and whispered, "Xiachu, have you really decided not to discuss it with him? In the past, you couldn't do without him for everything."

"Besides, Meng Wanyue is his sister-in-law. Can he accept that his sister-in-law's identity is unknown?"

Jiang Xiachu closed his eyes for a few moments and said calmly, "That's not necessary."

Lin Qingli then withdrew his gaze and sighed.

It seems that Xia Chu has really given up on Lu Huaiyan. She has classified him as an outsider and doesn't intend to tell him anything.

"Xia Chu, where should we start investigating An An's matter?"

Jiang Xiachu pondered for a moment and slowly said, "I want to ask Grandpa Pei first. He is experienced and a veteran. His experience over the years must not have been accumulated in vain. If I ask him for help, he will definitely be able to give us some useful advice."

Lin Qingli's eyes lit up: "That's a good idea."

After the two of them discussed it for a while, they went into the house and called Fang Yingqiu out and told her their decision.

After listening to what the two said, Fang Yingqiu nodded.

She patted Jiang Xiachu on the shoulder and said, "This is a safe thing to do. Mr. Pei is knowledgeable and experienced. You might as well go and listen to his opinion."

Since Fang Yingqiu said so, the two of them no longer had any worries. After packing up, they went straight out and headed towards the Pei family.

-

It wasn’t long before they arrived at Mr. Pei’s residence.

The Pei family’s yard is very large, with the gate ajar. It is quiet and peaceful, with several old locust trees standing quietly in the yard.

When the two walked into the yard, the old man was sitting in a rocking chair under a tree, squinting his eyes in the sun.

Next to the rocking chair, there is a small stone table with some exquisite tea sets on it.

The old man was dozing off and woke up when he heard noise coming from the door.

He slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw the people coming, a smile appeared on his face. He waved his hand and said, "Xia Chu and Qing Li are here, come in quickly."

Mr. Pei was in very good health. He immediately sat up by holding the armrest of the rocking chair and stood up.

"Are you here to ask about the little girl's medicine?"

The old man thought they came for An An, so he turned around and went into the house.

Jiang Xiachu hurriedly stepped forward, stopped the old man, reached out to help him sit down, and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Grandpa Pei, please sit down. We are not here for medicine this time."

Lin Qingli followed Jiang Xiachu and as soon as he entered the door, he looked around outside and then quickly closed the door.

Mr. Pei frowned, the wrinkles on his face deepened, and he sat down on the chair.

He looked at them carefully: "Huh? You're not here to get medicine? You don't look like you're here to chat with me, is there anything else?"

Jiang Xiachu sat aside and said respectfully: "Grandpa Pei, we came here this time because we have encountered some troubles recently. We would like to ask you for some advice."
