Chapter 114
Ye Tianhui directly handed Lin Jianquan's matter over to Gu Shizhang to investigate. After that, she didn't worry too much about it. It didn't take long for Gu Shizhang to say that he had found out the truth.
Ye Tianhui: "What's going on?"
Gu Shizhang: "You guessed correctly. First of all, she does have health problems, and it's already in the late stages. However, her sudden illness was caused by the shock she received at the racecourse. So far, it seems that it is related to her encounter with Meng Yinian."
Ye Tianhui: "Meng Yinian? Impossible? The age doesn't match..."
Meng Yinian is one year older than Gu Shizhang, twenty-seven years old. Lin Jianquan is fifteen years old now. No matter what, it is impossible for Meng Yinian to give birth to a child as old as Lin Jianquan.
That is——
Ye Tianhui looked at him: "Is it Meng Baohui?"
Gu Shizhang nodded. "Yes, Meng Baohui. Meng Baohui and Meng Yinian look alike. Lin Jianquan's mother must have mistaken him, or perhaps she realized who he was when she saw the similarities and recalled the past, which shocked her."
Ye Tianhui understood: "Meng Baohui met Lin Jianquan's mother at the horse farm. Something happened, and Lin Jianquan's mother became pregnant. But Meng Baohui abandoned her after having an affair with her. Or rather, everything was done against her will. This time, after Lin Jianquan's mother met Meng Yinian at the horse farm, Meng Yinian looked very similar to Meng Baohui. Lin Jianquan's mother was devastated and had another mental breakdown?"
Gu Shizhang: "It's probably a case of abandonment. According to my research, about twelve years ago, Mother Lin took young Lin Jianquan to find Meng Baohui, but Meng Baohui refused to acknowledge her."
Ye Tianhui: "Why?"
Meng Baohui has a son and two daughters. According to the style of their old-fashioned family, even if they don't want Lin Jianquan's mother to come in, they will definitely not ignore their own blood.
Ye Tianhui remembered the pair of eyes that Lin Jianquan hid behind the trash can when she first met him, eyes full of distress and hunger.
So there must be something hidden here.
Gu Shizhang smiled bitterly: "Yes."
He then explained that it turned out that Lin Ma's father was originally a staff member of the racecourse and a retired jockey. Lin Ma had lived in the racecourse since she was a child, and Meng Baohui often went in and out of the racecourse. He was attracted by the beautiful Lin Ma at the time, but Lin Ma had someone else in love and was engaged. In addition, Meng Baohui already had a wife and children at home, so she was unwilling to agree to Meng Baohui at the time.
Meng Baohui was attracted by Lin Ma's beauty and tried every means to pursue her.
Who knew that Lin Ma's fiancé died in an accident, and then Lin Ma's father became seriously ill and had no money for treatment. In the difficult times, Meng Baohui came to help. Lin Ma was only about 20 years old at the time. She suddenly lost her father and was helpless. With the help of Meng Baohui, she obeyed Meng Baohui and made his wish come true.
Although Meng Baohui already had a family and children at that time, according to the customs of the time, it was common for these wealthy children to have a second wife, so Meng Baohui wanted to let Lin Ma come in.
But who knew that when Meng Baohui proposed to let Lin Ma in, he was strongly opposed by Meng Baohui's original wife, Meng Yinian's mother. Meng Baohui had no choice but to put the plan on hold and planned to keep Lin Ma outside.
Who knew that something happened at this time. Lin's mother was raped at the racecourse. The incident happened at night. For some reason, the news spread out. In a short time, everyone knew that Lin's mother was raped. At that time, Hong Kong was still conservative, and countless people pointed fingers at Lin's mother.
Ye Tianhui understood: "So Meng Baohui feels embarrassed and doesn't want to recognize Lin Ma or Lin Jianquan anymore."
Gu Shizhang: "Yes, more than a month after this incident, Lin's mother found out she was pregnant. She believed the child was Meng Baohui's, but Meng Baohui refused to acknowledge it. He denied his relationship with Lin's mother and firmly believed that Lin's mother was pregnant with that villain's child. Lin's mother had no choice but to give birth to Lin Jianquan in humiliation. After the birth, because of financial difficulties, she took the then three-year-old Lin Jianquan to Meng Baohui to do a blood test. However, at that time, there was no good paternity test program even internationally. Secondly, Meng Baohui believed that Lin's mother had been defiled, and he did not want to offend his original wife, so he firmly denied it and kicked Lin's mother and Lin Jianquan out of the house."
Ye Tianhui didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a long while, she said, "Lin Jianquan looks a bit like Meng Yinian...actually."
Compared to Meng Yinian, Lin Jianquan is too handsome, perhaps he looks more like his mother, but some similarities can still be seen in his eyebrows and some details.
This similarity is subtle. If no one reveals their relationship, no one will make any associations. After all, there are many similar people in this world.
But once you think in this direction, you will find the power of genes. It is obvious that Lin Jianquan looks very much like Lin Ma, but traces of the Meng family can still be seen in some places.
Gu Shizhang nodded, then said, "Actually, if you recall Lin Jianquan's attitude towards Meng Yinian, you'll understand."
Ye Tianhui nodded and thought about those things in the past again, such as when Meng Yinian first appeared at the horse farm and in front of Lin Jianquan, Lin Jianquan's emotions seemed to fluctuate.
For example, the last time Lin Jianquan was riding the Black Rose against Nie Pingqi's Invincible Power, it was clearly a losing game, but Lin Jianquan fought with all his might. He had to win, as if he was competing with someone, as if to prove something.
Therefore, Lin Jianquan should know for sure that he is a descendant of the Meng family, but the Meng family does not recognize him or his mother. So when he has the opportunity to confront the Meng family and defeat them in his own way, he desires success more than anyone else.
For him, this is actually revenge and a kind of proof.
He wants to prove his excellence.
Ye Tianhui also remembered what Lin Jianquan asked her at that time. He asked about Meng Yinian and compared himself with Meng Yinian.
Because Meng Baohui gave up on him and did not acknowledge him. Even when his mother brought him to his home for help, Meng Baohui said some words. These words were engraved in the young boy's heart. He was actually somewhat envious or jealous of Meng Yinian, and wanted to prove that he was no worse than Meng Yinian?
Ye Tianhui suddenly felt sad.
She sighed: "Old Master Meng has not been in charge of things these years, but he is still alive after all."
After hearing this, Gu Shizhang understood.
She is a person who will avenge herself, but she is also a person who protects her own shortcomings.
He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, their old man is still alive."
Since I'm alive, I'll always take care of the family affairs.
************
Gu Shizhang was right, Ye Tianhui was indeed a very protective person.
Since he is hers, she will not allow such aggrieved person to exist.
She did some rough research on the Meng family's situation and found out that this incident happened fifteen or sixteen years ago. Many people in Hong Kong's upper class circles should have known about it at that time. However, the older generation of the Meng family was recuperating overseas at that time, so this matter could naturally be told to Meng Baohui. He said that it was not his child and he did not admit it. Fifteen years ago, the blood testing technology was not mature yet, so the old man would naturally not distrust his own son but trust an outsider.
Who could have thought that his own son would not want his own flesh and blood?
But Ye Tianhui believed that Lin Jianquan's mother was not the kind of person who made unreasonable demands. She should be aware of the time of her pregnancy and would not have to blame Meng Baohui.
Besides, Lin Jianquan now obviously looks somewhat similar to Meng Yinian, so she thinks it is necessary to investigate and find out the truth.
She immediately asked Gu Shizhang's people to continue investigating, and they soon found out the specific time when Lin Jianquan's mother gave birth to Lin Jianquan fifteen years ago. After some analysis, it seemed that Lin Jianquan's mother gave birth to Lin Jianquan seven months after the bullying incident.
In other words, according to the examination records retained by the hospital at that time, one month after the bullying incident, Lin Jianquan's mother was found to be three months pregnant. The evidence was conclusive, and it was obvious that Lin Jianquan was Meng Baohui's child.
It's just that the parties involved were irresponsible. Meng Baohui was concerned about his own face and firmly denied it, and the other people in the Meng family didn't take the matter seriously. As for Lin Jianquan's mother at the time, she had a bad reputation, low status, and was pregnant. Obviously, she had no ability to prove anything for herself.
What can a weak woman like her do?
So this matter was left unsolved, and the unclear situation caused the mother and son to suffer injustice for more than ten years.
After confirmation, she went straight to Lin Jianquan.
She went straight to the point and asked, "I want to know, what were you thinking that day when you controlled the Black Rose to defeat the Meng family's invincible power?"
After hearing this, Lin Jianquan's eyes instantly fell on her face.
His dark eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion.
Ye Tianhui apologized: "I'm sorry, I checked this matter without your permission."
Lin Jianquan didn't say anything, he just shook his head, which meant it didn't matter.
Then he added, "Yes, you guessed right, that's right. My mom came to the racecourse that day and must have been stimulated by seeing Meng Yinian, which led to her emotional fluctuations."
He paused briefly before continuing, "At this point, I don't really care. After all these years and so many things, I've let it go. I'll be careful in the future and take good care of her so she doesn't recall any of this."
Ye Tianhui: "But are you willing to let your mom live in injustice for the rest of her life? Regardless of whether you want to recognize them or not, this matter can't be so muddled, right? Your mom is obviously holding her breath, can she get over this?"
Lin Jianquan said bitterly, "You've already guessed it. That time when I encountered Nie Pingqi while riding the Black Rose, I was determined to win. I wanted to win this battle and severely dampen the Meng family's spirit. Now, I've calmed down. I can only swallow the humiliation I suffered. Otherwise, what else can I do? I can't beg them to recognize me. They kicked us out back then. Although I was very young, I always remember it, so I will never say anything again."
Ye Tianhui: "The reason you said you wanted to swallow it is not because you have really let it go, but because you are powerless."
Lin Jianquan suddenly looked at Ye Tianhui.
He looked into her eyes and felt that she had revealed all his thoughts in one go.
He had to admit that he really couldn't do anything, so he could only avoid it.
Ye Tianhui looked at his reaction and naturally understood.
She sighed, "I'll handle this matter, investigate it thoroughly, and let them give you and your mommy justice, okay?"
Lin Jianquan listened with a dazed look on his face: "But this is an old story, they won't admit it."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Of course I have my own way. If you really let it go, then that's fine. But now your mommy still can't get over it, and you still care about it. In this case, then we should try to untie this knot."
*************
In fact, Ye Tianhui's method is very simple. Since the Meng family didn't want to talk about it because of face, then let them admit it for the sake of face.
As for whether Lin Jianquan is willing to return after the recognition, and whether Lin Jianquan's mother is willing to recognize it, that is up to Lin Jianquan and his mother to decide. At that time, Lin Jianquan and his mother will have the initiative, and at least they will have let out the anger they had back then.
It is now very simple to get the Meng family to recognize Lin Jianquan.
Aren't they jealous of such an excellent jockey?
When they knew that this was the bloodline of his Meng family, they were probably so angry that they wanted to vomit blood.
Ye Tianhui felt that there was no need for any roundabout way around this matter. That day happened to be a symposium of the Jockey Club. The meeting was originally to discuss the Sha Tin Racecourse, and the Meng family was also invited because the meeting was of great importance. The one who came was the old man of the Meng family, who rarely came out.
very good.
So during the meeting that day, when Ye Tianhui saw Mr. Meng, she went over and greeted him with a smile.
Next to Mr. Meng was Meng Yinian, and she spoke to him in a very friendly manner.
Although the Meng family lost in the racecourse dispute, Mr. Meng was an old man who had been in the business world for many years. When he saw Ye Tianhui, there was no expression on his face, and he still greeted Ye Tianhui warmly and kindly.
When they sat down to talk, Mr. Meng praised Ye Tianhui a lot.
Ye Tianhui was humble after hearing this. "Of course, I have some contribution to this, but to be honest, it would be difficult for me to win on my own. After all, I am not a professional jockey, and I can't do anything alone. The reason why our Ye family achieved good results last season was because of Jianquan. Jianquan is a very talented jockey."
After hearing this, Mr. Meng felt a little uncomfortable. The Ye family was so lucky to have such an outstanding granddaughter, and the good granddaughter also found a good jockey. It would be uncomfortable to think about it.
Sometimes, what these big families compete for is not money, but people. It is not enough to have money without people.
The so-called people are actually offspring, that is, whether the descendants can support the family business. Obviously, Ye Tianhui can do it. He doesn't know whether there is someone like Ye Tianhui among his offspring.
Meng Yinian is certainly good, but compared to Ye Tianhui, he seems to be a little bit worse.
At that moment, he could only nod slightly: "Yes, heroes emerge from youth!"
Originally, he would have said a few perfunctory words and the topic would have passed, but who knew that at this time Ye Tianhui said: "Jianquan is not only capable, but also obedient. Anyway, he is the most reassuring in all aspects."
Meng Yinian, who was standing next to him, heard this and looked at Ye Tianhui with some confusion.
It had been a while since this incident happened. She suddenly ran to a loser and showed off like that. It felt contrary to her style. He felt that Ye Tianhui was not such a person.
He always felt that Ye Tianhui had other meanings when she said this.
Ye Tianhui felt Meng Yinian's gaze and looked at him with a smile.
At this time, Mr. Meng sighed, "Tianhui really has good taste. The horse and jockey she chose are both top-notch. I heard that you guys insisted on buying it from the stable at a high price. Now it seems that you have good taste."
Ye Tianhui said: "Speaking of which, we are also lucky, we really picked up a bargain."
She smiled and asked Mr. Meng: "Grandpa Meng, do you know what it means to pick up a leak?"
Mr. Meng nodded and said, "I know. It's just that others are blind and don't appreciate good things, so people with good vision buy them at a low price."
He thought of Manager Hu from the horse farm: "You bought Lin Jianquan's contract from the horse farm. It really is a good bargain."
Ye Tianhui said, "Grandpa Meng, I'm not talking about picking up a bargain like this. In fact, Lin Jianquan's family background is also very good. According to what he told me, his biological father's family used to run a stable business. It's just a pity that the family didn't recognize him. They looked down on his mother's poor family background and didn't recognize him or take him seriously. Who knew that this child would be so talented and hardworking, and that he would be able to make it this far? It's a relief."
Old Master Meng was surprised. "I heard that those who usually become insect boys are children from poor families who are willing to join this industry. I didn't expect Lin Jianquan to come from a wealthy family. That family must have made a mistake."
Meng Yinian frowned: "There's actually such a story? Who is this family?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "How would I know? He didn't tell me. He just mentioned it casually. Anyway, his biological father abandoned him back then, so he won't go back to recognize him. I don't care about that."
As Meng Yinian listened, he became more and more confused. He frowned and looked at Ye Tianhui inquiringly.
Ye Tianhui naturally felt it, and Meng Yinian's eyes were full of scrutiny.
She knew that Meng Yinian was smart, and he probably knew what happened back then, but he might not have been able to associate it at the moment.
Actually, Lin Jianquan is Meng Yinian's half-brother.
I wonder how he would feel if he knew the truth?
It was really interesting that his younger brother defeated the jockey who was highly regarded by his family, causing his family to lose a huge amount of profit.
Obviously, even if I didn't continue to remind him, Meng Yinian would have checked it out.
But what if? After all, nothing can be too absolute.
So, she looked at Mr. Meng's obviously puzzled expression and said, "I don't know which family specifically, but I heard him mention that his biological father's family also sent a horse to compete last season—"
She said calmly, "Coincidentally, I was once defeated by him."
After saying this, she stood up and said, "Grandpa Meng, the meeting is about to start. I'm leaving now."
Watching Ye Tianhui walk away, Old Master Meng frowned and said to Meng Yinian beside him, "What does she mean by that? She seems to be hinting at something else."
Meng Yinian was silent for a moment before he said, "Grandpa, I'll check."
Mr. Meng sighed, "Hurry up, I have a bad feeling."
***********
That day, Gu Shizhang called and asked, "Have you mentioned this to Meng Yinian?"
Ye Tianhui smiled when she heard this: "I knew he would ask you about it. Yes, I mentioned it to him and his grandfather. I talked about it at the Horse Racing Committee's symposium."
At the symposium...
Gu Shizhang laughed dumbly: "I knew that going against you would not end well, and you brought it up in this situation."
The consequence of bringing it up in such an occasion is that it will soon become known to everyone. After all, Hong Kong's entertainment tabloids are omnipresent, and they are always talking about and listening to news in corners.
Ye Tianhui: "Of course. If we are going to do it, we have to do it ruthlessly and in one go. The Meng family must investigate and must take the initiative to admit that this is their bloodline. Otherwise, I can give them a big punishment."
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "Yinian asked me, and I gave him some guidance. It seems that he cares about this matter very much. But who would have thought that Lin Jianquan is actually his younger brother."
Ye Tianhui: "Yes, he is his younger brother after all. His father committed a sin, and as a result, a woman and a child suffered."
Gu Shizhang sighed, "Actually, this matter cannot be blamed on him. He is only twelve years older than Lin Jianquan, which means he was still young when this happened. He was studying in England, and the adults in his family would not mention this to him."
Ye Tianhui pondered this and couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, I think this is quite humorous. You know, when Lin Jianquan defeated Nie Pingqi, Meng Yinian looked at Lin Jianquan with jealousy, his eyes red with jealousy. If he knew that this was his biological brother, wouldn't he be furious?"
She continued, "And when he thinks about his own brother signing a thirty-year contract under me, it's clear he's going to be pissed off again!"
Just thinking about it makes me feel that Meng Yinian doesn’t need to live anymore.
Gu Shizhang was helpless: "Who would have thought that Lin Jianquan was actually the heir of the Meng family? The Meng family never thought that Meng Baohui would be so unreliable."
Of course, what Meng Baohui could not have imagined was that the ant he casually discarded and the tiny bit of its blood were not dead, but actually crawled up, not only crawled up, but also stood tall in front of their Meng family, and slashed fiercely in the road of their Meng family's development.
The law of nature is clear and retribution will come.
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "How did they turn people away at that time? Now, no matter how hard they tried, they can pick it up again."
There is no way. He has gained both fame and fortune and has become an existence that cannot be ignored. The Meng family can't play dumb.
Thinking of this, Ye Tianhui suddenly thought: "Lin Jianquan's mother is in the sanatorium now. Although the sanatorium has its own rules, some people are so powerful that those rules may not be able to stop them, right?"
And if Lin Jianquan's mother were to be harassed again because of this incident, that is something she absolutely does not want to see.
Gu Shizhang: "I'll send someone to the sanatorium to keep an eye on them in case they make any moves."
Ye Tianhui said: "Okay."
Since she has started to get involved in this matter, she must see it through to the end and will not let the Meng family hurt this poor woman in any way.
