As the group chatted and laughed, one of them suddenly walked in.
"Feng You, what's wrong?" Gu Nanyan looked up and instructed Feng You to investigate something. It seems she has found out.
Feng You kept his eyes straight ahead. "There's news."
He stood there, without saying anything more.
If you don't look at him, you won't notice that there's someone else here.
"Ziyan, what did you ask Fengyou to investigate this time?" Lu Ming handed the ice cream that Aunt Wang had just brought over to Ye Lin.
Feng Youzhang has a spider web, and most of these people have had dealings with him to some extent.
She was a bit rigid in temperament, but loyal to Gu Nanyan.
"I looked up some interesting things," Gu Nanyan said with a slight smile. "I told you, we're all family here."
"Use less. It's getting late. If you use too much, you probably won't be able to sleep well tonight." He leaned closer to Shen Bei'an and coaxed him softly.
"Okay," Shen Bei'an scooped up a big spoonful of ice cream and stuffed it directly into Gu Nan'an's mouth. "Once you eat it, you're not allowed to say anything to me anymore. This is just a tiny bit! It's okay."
She held the small bowl in both hands, as if afraid that Gu Nanyan would take it away.
Seeing the way he was guarding his food, Gu Nanyan's eyes lit up with a smile. After a few bites, he pinched Chen Bei'an's little face and said, "Eat slowly, no one will take it from you."
"When we get to Fuyun Island, there's a really nice dessert shop there. I'll take you there."
Upon hearing this, Shen Bei'an's eyes lit up. "Really?"
I heard that the dessert shop was very good when I went to Fuyun Island last time, but I didn't dare to go and eat there secretly because Gu Nanyan was around.
Now look what's happened, she actually brought it up herself!
That's not his fault!
"Yes, when have I ever lied to you? But you should still use it less often." Gu Nanyan knew that Shen Bei'an wanted to go that time, but he held back.
I've always been careful to keep an eye on things, but it's okay to let my guard down once in a while.
After receiving Gu Nanyan's words, Feng You finally spoke, "I have found out about the Vice President's background. His ancestral home is Qingchuan City."
"Why is it Qingchuan City again?" Fu Muqian ate a bowl of ice cream in a few bites. "Boss Zhou, do you think Qingchuan City is hiding a dragon vein or a treasure? Why is everyone from Qingchuan City?"
Zhou Zhi's eyes swirled with dark clouds. "I don't know if it's a dragon vein or a treasure trove. I just thought Yingzhong was a small, run-down place."
The name Qingchuan was given by Ziyan at that time.
Qing Shang Yun Chuan
After the changes, Qingchuan City has indeed produced many talented people, and its economy has developed rapidly over the past decade, completely different from previous years.
Changing the name can be seen as a sign of good fortune for that place.
Do you think they wouldn't know how many shady dealings are going on in Yingzhong?
Trafficking in people, selling "placental dumplings," local officials raising forbidden young horses...
Countless
That year, in Shuiyunjian, the most prosperous place in Yingzhong and a gathering place for the powerful and wealthy, there were cries of begging for mercy, and blood stained the entire Shuiyunjian!
The person who did it was none other than the eldest son of the Gu family—Gu Nanyan!
Ziyan was only eleven or twelve years old at the time!
The events of that Shuiyunjian are still vivid in my mind. Others may not know, but how could the people of Yingzhong back then, now Qingchuan City, not know?
At that time, the old lady of the Gu family in Xihua City sent people to intercept them; otherwise, the news that would have been sent back to the capital would have been that the eldest son of the Gu family was known as the "God of Slaughter."
Zhou Zhi first met Gu Nanyan not at the Elite Academy, but in Yingzhong.
He witnessed firsthand how this pampered young master from the capital staged a "massacre" at Shuiyun Pavilion.
Even after all that, the He family still dared to send people there.
Those words really came true.
If there is a 100% profit, capitalists will take risks; if there is a 200% profit, capitalists will disregard the law; if there is a 300% profit, then capitalists will trample on everything in the world!
It's equally reasonable to apply this to politicians.
Hua Yueli put down her bowl as well, "It's a good place after all, the place that raised my Boss Zhou." She smiled.
Hua Yueli would go to that place several times a year, after all, she had married Zhou Zhi and always wanted to visit her in-laws.
Zhou Zhi's parents had two children, but now they only have Zhou Zhi as their son, and he has been married off to her. Naturally, Hua Yueli should do more to be filial to him.
Xie Yunyu was thrown into Pengcheng, and later abducted to Yingzhong, where she was forced to get involved in Case 601, and also met Mo Yuluo.
"Go on." Gu Nanyan genuinely didn't care much about the past; he was just a young man.
There's always a time when you're young and impetuous, and you can be a bit too ruthless when you do something drastic.
"The Vice President's mother was born in Shuiyunjian and later met Mr. Bai while traveling in Xihua City."
Feng You's words have already made things very clear.
"Elder Bai?!" Hua Yueli suddenly stood up, her beautiful eyes wide with shock. "Is it Elder Bai from the Elders' Council? The one who is incorruptible and has been mourning his wife for many years?!"
Everyone knows that old man in the Elders' Council, the one with the white hair.
Old Bai was born in Xihua City. The Bai family was not of high social standing, but Old Bai himself was quite capable and had a good in-law family.
He married the seventh younger sister of the Helian family in Xihua City.
Unfortunately, this aunt of the Helian family was short-lived and died young, without leaving behind any children.
Mr. Bai never renewed his contract, and he maintained a very good reputation in political circles.
And now they're telling her that Qingran is actually Elder Bai's biological son!
Judging by the timeline, Qingran was probably born before that great-aunt of the Helian family had even passed away!
"This...it's been hidden way too well!" The others couldn't help but gape.
"Zixi, about this matter..." Fu Muqian looked at Wei Shengxi, who was standing to the side. Qingran and Wei Shengsui were best friends!
Wei Shengxi's face was also pale, his eyes filled with surprise. He shook his head slightly, "I don't know either, but I don't know if Father knows about this matter."
For Wei Shengxi, Qingran was more like a father.
When he was sick and needed someone to take care of him, Qingran was always by his side.
He knew that what he was doing was going against his father, and therefore against Uncle Qing.
But he had no choice.
Shen Bei'an looked like he'd just heard some big gossip.
Shen Bei'an knew a little about Bai Lao's reputation, but this...
It was hidden too well, wasn't it?
More than forty years!
They just hid it like that?
Moreover, upon closer examination, it's hard to believe that Qingran had no one behind him when he rose to power.
Because Qingran and Weishengsui were on good terms, everyone assumed that the Weisheng family was behind Qingran.
But now that I think about it, the Wei family is a family of doctors, how could they possibly have the ability to let Qingran rise so high!
If Old Bai is his biological father, then everything makes sense.
"He should know to some extent." Gu Nanyan was not surprised by this result; he had already guessed it.
"Go down," she whispered to Feng You.
"Yes." Feng You lifted his foot and left, just as his name suggested.
"There's no need to rush to spread this matter. The Helian family... isn't in a hurry."
From the moment the Helian family allowed Helian Yunbai to bully Yuci, Gu Nanyan knew he would never let it go.
The fifth one is good and not bad. If someone else takes the position, it will still work!
