Chapter 114 Muddy the Waters



When Yan Yaoyao returned home, she looked unwell and even her greeting to Chen Lan sounded listless.

What happened?

Yan Yaoyao looked dejected. "Grandpa Shen doesn't like me at all. He would never have treated Yan Qiao like this before."

Chen Lan suddenly realized something and thought of some old stories. Just as he was about to explain to her, someone said, "Madam, a few policemen have come outside. They say they are looking for the old lady."

Chen Lan asked, puzzled, "Did you knock on the wrong door? What do you want with the old lady?"

"I don't know, but they were definitely looking for the old lady."

Chen Lan gently touched her temple. "Let them in."

A moment later, two police officers came in, showed their badges, and explained their purpose to her.

"There are some things that require Ms. Yuan Mengchun's cooperation in the investigation."

The name was given precisely, so it's impossible that they've found the wrong person.

Chen Lan's expression changed slightly. "My mother-in-law is so old, what could she possibly have done wrong?"

"It concerns the matter of how, 19 years ago, she bribed a nurse to switch the two children, Yan Yaoyao and Yan Qiao. We already have evidence, and Ms. Yuan Mengchun was indeed involved. We need her cooperation in the investigation."

Chen Lan gritted her teeth, never expecting this matter to be dug up.

"Please wait a moment, I need to make a phone call to my husband."

She walked to the side to make the call, and Yan Yaoyao asked, "What exactly happened? How could my grandma have switched me and Yan Qiao? My family is much richer than Yan Qiao's family."

The police officer raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure?"

Yan Yaoyao's expression stiffened; she was indeed not quite sure.

“But her family is rich, and my family is not bad either. My grandmother has no reason to do these things.”

"We'll have to ask Ms. Yuan Mengchun to find out the truth."

Yan Yaoyao felt a little panicked. If this matter were to be exposed, her family would definitely be condemned by everyone.

"Mom, have you gotten in touch with Dad?"

Chen Lan looked grim. Yan Yaohui was somewhere else, and his phone was switched off and couldn't be reached.

Then she can only solve the problem in her own way.

"Yaoyao, you take the police officers to the sanatorium first."

Yan Yaoyao looked a little flustered. "Mom, will something happen?"

Chen Lan smiled slightly, "What could possibly happen? Don't worry, I'll handle it."

If Yuan Mengchun's actions are exposed, the Yan family's company will definitely be affected.

The only way now is to strike first.

Watching Yan Yaoyao and the two policemen leave, Chen Lan began to make arrangements.

...

Not long after the police questioned Yuan Mengchun, the old stories of the Yan family began to circulate widely online.

These old stories are, of course, related to the entanglement between Yan Jiahao, Yuan Mengchun, and Shi Yuehua.

Under Chen Lan's control, many details were omitted.

The accusations were directed at Shi Yuehua, so that everyone would know that she was the third party who broke up the marriage between Old Master Yan and Yuan Mengchun, and that she had given birth to a daughter for the old master.

Because it involves Yan Qiao, the matter has become increasingly popular.

Yan Qiao has always been a natural at generating trending topics; any topic she touches can go viral.

When Yan Qiao saw the message, she was discussing home renovation with Ying Tiantian in the courtyard.

New Year's Day has passed, and the weather is getting colder.

Upon seeing these comments online, she nearly crushed her phone.

If you scold her, she can always say that she's used to it.

But Shi Yuehua is already quite old and has almost completely withdrawn from the world. Why should she have to suffer such an insult?

"Tian Tian, ​​take a break today and continue tomorrow. I have some things to take care of first."

Ying would ask every day, "What's wrong? Do you need any help?"

Yan Qiao shook her head. "I'll just have my lawyer handle it. But didn't you say you used to draw comics in high school? Could you tell me a story in comic form?"

Ying Tiantian was eager to try, saying, "Okay, tell me the story once, and as long as it's not too long, I can draw it for you right away."

He was originally an art student, but after entering university, he chose a specialization and ended up in interior design.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Yan Qiao first called Attorney Dai and asked him to help collect evidence.

“I will sue every single one of these marketing accounts. I will not accept mediation. I will follow the court’s judgment. Attorney Dai, don’t try to save me money. In addition to the marketing accounts, I will also sue those highly praised and popular comments.”

She wants these people to know that the internet is not a lawless place, and everyone must be responsible for their words and actions.

After explaining everything, Yan Qiao hung up the phone.

He started talking to Ying Tiantian about Shi Yuehua.

“Write it from my grandmother’s perspective.”

So that they would know that without Shi Yuehua, the Yan family would not be where they are today.

The Yan family's behavior of throwing mud at us today is no different from cursing their mother after putting down their chopsticks.

Ying Tiantian asked, "Do you know who made these things online?"

Yan Qiao nodded, "It's probably Chen Lan, my adoptive mother, and Yan Yaoyao's biological mother."

Ying Tiantian spat, "Despicable and shameless! But why did she have to release it now of all times, by having a marketing account publish it?"

Yan Qiao said, "It's because of Yuan Mengchun."

When she went out this morning, two police officers came to her door, saying that the nurse Yuan Mengchun had instructed to do the baby swapping had confessed to what she had done.

With witnesses and physical evidence readily available, Yuan Mengchun has no way to deny it.

Once this matter is exposed, the damage to the Yan family will be very real.

Every drop in the company's stock price means losing money, which Chen Lan naturally doesn't want.

By releasing this information beforehand to muddy the waters, and then having the truth about Yuan Mengchun switching the children revealed, it seemed "excusable" in the eyes of netizens.

Ying Tiantian gave an OK sign: "I'll send it to you by this afternoon at the latest. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Yan Qiao chuckled, "Thanks, I'll include this cost in the renovation fee later."

"Tsk, I'm not that kind of person. I'd do anything for my sister Qiao, even risk my life. Just consider it me standing up for her."

Yan Qiao accepted his favor, saying, "Then I'll treat you and Xiangxiang to dinner later."

"Okay, let's go to Dongzuilou then. I want to order the most expensive thing."

"Eat up, serve you the highest standard!"

After leaving the courtyard house, Yan Qiao went straight home.

Yan Shu's eyes were still red, showing that she was quite angry.

"mom."

"Qiaoqiao, you saw the news online, right?"

Yan Qiao sat down beside her to comfort her, "I saw it. I've already contacted Attorney Dai to collect evidence. We'll sue them one by one."

Yan Shu said with a sigh, "Your grandmother means that this matter should be let go. She is already old and doesn't want to dwell on it too much."

Yan Qiao said, "That won't do, we have to take action! If we don't act, Chen Lan will only push her luck. Doesn't she want to muddy the waters? Then let's tell the whole story and clarify all the family scandals of the past. Anyway, it's not us who will lose face. Grandma is very righteous. She chose to withdraw from the moment she learned the truth, and even took you away from Yancheng. They still want to pin the blame on Grandma, but we can't do that!"
