Upon hearing this, Yu Chengping said, "Uh."
He looked at Yu Mingxiang, then at Gu Guanhai, and after a long while sighed, he said, "I'm sorry, it was wrong of me to keep it from you, but my job is inherently confidential, and it was best for you not to know."
"As for not recognizing you..."
At this point, Yu Chengping scratched his head and said awkwardly, "Don't blame me for not recognizing you. The last time I saw you was more than ten years ago. You've changed so much. You really don't look like you used to at all."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang said: ...
She rolled her eyes at him, pouted, and didn't say anything.
After her rebirth, she drank spiritual spring water every day and her life went smoothly. She had indeed changed quite a bit. Her brother didn't recognize her, which she could actually forgive, but...
The nature of her brother's job truly shocked Yu Mingxiang.
The eldest brother was actually a mole!
The person in charge of such a large amount of supplies must hold a high-ranking position.
However, she never knew that her elder brother had such an identity until her death in her previous life. She always thought that her elder brother was just a businessman. Because, later, after her elder brother's unexpected death, she even inherited a large overseas estate left to her by her elder brother.
Her older brother kept it from her; it was so painful!
Yu Mingxiang sat there sullenly, as memories of her past and present lives washed over her.
In her past life, her elder brother concealed his identity as an undercover agent to protect her, ensuring her safety to the greatest extent possible. However, precisely because he hid it so well, when their entire family was reported and sent to the countryside, they received no protection whatsoever. Instead, because of his actions abroad, they were unable to defend themselves, and that wasn't all...
In her past life, she even sent Qin Yuzhu abroad and asked her older brother to take care of her!
Thinking of this, Yu Mingxiang couldn't help but frown.
In her previous life, Gu Guanhai had already sacrificed himself last year. Therefore, he was not involved at all when the famine broke out in the Northwest. Since her brother was in charge of this matter in this life, he was most likely also in charge of this matter in the previous life...
Thinking of this, Yu Mingxiang's heart suddenly tightened.
She subconsciously looked up at Gu Guanhai and her older brother.
"You just asked which country was involved in this incident?"
She said in a deep voice, "The land of cherry blossoms?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Chengping nodded.
"Um."
He said, "From what I've received, Japan was involved. To be precise, it was the people from Japan who imposed export restrictions, which is why our batch of grain was seized!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang was speechless.
He looked at Gu Guanhai with a deep gaze.
The moment their eyes met, Gu Guanhai instantly understood what she meant.
Qin Yuzhu.
Qin Yuzhu is in the land of cherry blossoms, at the Yamamoto family's residence.
Japan has always maintained close relations with the Western Empire, so...
It's normal for his wife to make that connection to her.
"...When fishing, you have to be willing to use bait."
Gu Guanhai avoided eye contact with Yu Mingxiang, and mumbled, "If people don't see the significance of her existence, how can they go crazy for her?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!!"
What was originally just speculation has now been confirmed.
"So you used that batch of grain as bait?"
She glared at Gu Guanhai and said, "You know perfectly well how important that batch of grain is; it concerns the lives of countless people in the Northwest!"
"I know."
Gu Guanhai frowned and said, "I know the importance of that batch of grain, and I know this matter is of great significance. I didn't intend to use that batch of grain as bait. It's just that she happened to use it as bait to make her move!"
Qin Yuzhu had fallen into the hands of the Yamamoto family, and he and Lao Yuan had already spread the news while the Yamamoto family's patriarch was holding a funeral.
The allure of defying fate is immense.
The metaphysical circles of various countries were shaken. During this time, the Kingdom of Sakura had been under immense pressure, trying to protect the Yamamoto family and keep Qin Yuzhu in Sakura. Now...
Qin Yuzhu, the one born against all odds and burdened with great fortune, has finally made her move.
Although her move was rather ruthless, costing countless lives in the Northwest, but...
