The next day, the news of Chu Xun's sacrifice reached the capital. Except for his second uncle and second aunt who were in the army, all the members of the Chu family gathered at the old house.
Chen Yu burst into tears and said, "There was a traitor among our people. We were ambushed. In this mission, all twenty people, including the commander, were killed..."
Chu Xingbang collapsed onto the sofa in exhaustion.
"dad!"
"grandfather!"
Chu Xingbang raised his hand to stop the crowd. He looked at Chen Yu, his hand holding the cane trembling slightly, "Have you found the traitor?"
Chen Yu was about to speak when the people from GWH arrived.
Chu Jiang stepped forward and asked, "What brings Director Zhang here?"
GWH Director Zhang Tianhua gave a forced smile, "Deputy Director Chu, excuse me for interrupting you. We at GWH have received a report that someone from your Chu family is colluding with the Japanese."
"How could our Chu family collude with the Japanese?" Chu Jiang asked back.
Zhang Tianhua said, "Deputy Director Chu, we have indeed received a report. This is the report letter. Please don't make things difficult for us."
"Ah Jiang." Chu Xingbang stopped his grandson and said, "Let Director Zhang investigate. I want to see what he can find out."
"Mr. Chu." Zhang Tianhua came to Chu Xingbang, bowed and smiled, "I'm sorry for worrying you."
Chu Xingbang said seriously, "Director Zhang, there's no need for politeness. May I ask who reported this, and who in our Chu family did it belong to?"
"What a coincidence," Zhang Tianhua said, "You all know the whistleblower. The person being reported is your eldest grandson, Chu Zhou, Director Chu."
Chu Zhou was shocked. "Report me? Collude with the Japanese?"
Fang Fang couldn't believe it. "How is that possible?"
Everyone in the Chu family also thought it was ridiculous.
Quan Yicheng realized something was wrong and turned to Xie Mingying and said, "Yingying, hurry back to the Xie family."
"I'm not leaving." Xie Mingying shook her head. "Since I've married you, I'm a member of the Chu family. I will never leave you alone."
"But the situation is not right now. If you go back to the Xie family, at least you can ask them for help. We can't all die here."
Xie Mingying thought for a moment and said, "The more this happens, the more I can't leave. If I go back to the Xie family, they might not help me to protect themselves. If I also die, the Xie family might consider their family ties and find a solution for us."
It's not that she doesn't trust her family, but at this time, she can't gamble with people's hearts.
Quan Yicheng held her hand and said, "Thank you, Yingying."
Xie Mingying shook her head. "We are husband and wife, and husband and wife should share joys and sorrows, right?"
The whole city was deeply moved.
"Who reported me?" Chu Zhou asked angrily.
Zhang Tianhua looked towards the door, and everyone looked over as well. A gentle and handsome man walked in. Everyone was startled, "Ye Tian!?"
"Third brother? How could it be you?" Chu Zhou walked forward, unable to believe that it was the person in front of him who reported him.
Ye Tian looked at Chu Zhou and said, "Brother, I'm sorry. I can't bear to see you betray your country and compatriots, nor can I bear to see you bring shame to the Chu family."
"You're framing me!" Chu Zhou pointed at him and said angrily, "When did I ever collude with the Japanese?"
Ye Tian took out a stack of letters and said, "This is the correspondence between you and the Japanese."
Chu Zhou took the letter and opened it quickly. He was stunned to find that it was indeed his handwriting.
Fang Fang came over and read the letter. Thinking of something, she pointed at Ye Tian and said, "Third brother, it's you. You imitated your eldest brother's handwriting!"
She told everyone that Ye Tian imitated her husband's handwriting to sign her son's test paper.
Chu Xingbang walked forward with his cane and looked at Ye Tian, "You did it, right?"
"Grandpa, I don't understand what you are saying." Ye Tian still had a gentle smile on his face.
Chu Xingbang raised his hand and slapped him, "You beast, it was you who colluded with the Japanese, you framed your elder brother, you deliberately harmed your elder brother and the Chu family!"
"Why are you doing this?" Chu Zhou grabbed Ye Tian's collar. "You are also a member of the Chu family. What good will it do you to harm me and the Chu family?"
Several finger marks appeared on Ye Tian's face, burning, but he didn't care. He looked at Chu Zhou and asked, "When did you treat me as a member of the Chu family?"
Without waiting for Chu Zhou to speak, he continued, "We are both grandsons of the Chu family, but my last name is not Chu, and I am not on the Chu family tree. You don't let me participate in any important matters. From the beginning to the end, you have never treated me as a true member of the Chu family!"
If the Chu family had not been wary of him, he would not have bothered to study Chu Zhou's handwriting.
He has been back to the Chu family for so long and has tried so hard, but he only got this one handle.
But it was enough. As long as he could pry open a hole, there would be plenty of people to help him push down the high wall of the Chu family bit by bit.
"You are not worthy of being a member of the Chu family." Chu Xingbang glared at him. "There is absolutely no such thing as a conscienceless descendant like you in our Chu family!"
He knew that this kid would not be on the same page with the Chu family, and it turned out to be true!
Ye Tian laughed loudly, "I have lost all conscience? The traitor who is colluding with the Japanese is Chu Zhou, the eldest grandson of your Chu family!"
"Asshole!" Chu Zhou punched him hard. "I've been so good to you, and this is how you repay me? Don't forget, today is our mother's death anniversary. If she knew you were killing your brothers, how heartbroken would she be?"
"Don't mention her!" Ye Tian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been abducted by human traffickers. It's all her fault that I'm in this situation today!"
Chu Zhou looked at him in disbelief, "You are such a person, I misjudged you."
"You didn't misjudge him. You were just deceived by his illusion." Chu Xingbang said, "Perhaps, he is not a member of my Chu family at all."
