Chapter 237: Miss Yu, Our Madam is Looking for You!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
How did she know about Han Qingqiu? And how did she know that Han Qingqiu’s formula was here?
Even the Yu family wasn’t aware of this. Yu Anwan only learned about it when Han Qingqiu was on her deathbed.
Yu Anwan found the situation rather tricky.
She tapped her slender and elegant fingertips rhythmically on the tabletop.
Soon, Yu Anwan forced herself to regain composure. However, no matter how composed she tried to be, she couldn’t connect all the pieces of information.
Yu Anwan knew very well that enemies in plain sight were never the most fearsome. It was those hidden adversaries who had remained silent for so long that were truly terrifying.
Yu Anwan lowered her gaze, gradually calming herself down. The more obstacles were placed in her path, the more determined she became to confront these challenges head-on.
Her expression darkened, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes. Then, she stood there quietly.
After a while, Yu Anwan finally managed to regain her composure. She checked the time on her phone and realized she had to attend a parent-teacher meeting at Dabao and Xiaobao’s school. Since this situation had already unfolded, Yu Anwan knew she couldn’t avoid it.
She decided to face it head-on, with the resolve to handle whatever came her way.
Yu Anwan was prepared and unafraid.
However, what Yu Anwan didn’t anticipate was that as soon as she left her villa, she encountered a man in a black suit standing before her. He was polite.
“Miss Yu,” he greeted courteously.
Yu Anwan raised an eyebrow, maintaining her composure. “And who are you?”
“Our Madam wishes to see you. She mentioned that it won’t take up much of your time,” the man replied directly, offering a friendly smile as he addressed Yu Anwan.
Next to Yu Anwan’s villa, a black Rolls-Royce parked there, its windows made of tinted glass, rendering the interior invisible.
However, when Yu Anwan glanced at the license plate, she instantly recognized its significance. This license plate had significant connections. It belonged to the Lu family in the capital.
Why was the Lu family taking the initiative to seek her out?
Without much thought, Yu Anwan followed her assistant toward the Rolls-Royce. In such circumstances, it was best to accept the situation. There was no need for Yu Anwan to antagonize the Lu family, as it wouldn’t serve her interests.
Upon getting into the car, Yu Anwan was surprised to see that the person inside was none other than Xu Shuhui. This unexpected encounter heightened Yu Anwan’s curiosity.
Xu Shuhui was the legitimate wife of Lu Chongming, holding a higher status in the Lu family compared to him.
Therefore, Xu Shuhui was the one who lived in the Lu family’s mansion.
In order to be with his lover, Lu Chongming had never returned to the Lu family. He was a person who had been ostracized by the Lu family.
However, Lu Chongming did not dare to divorce Xu Shuhui.
Yu Anwan had heard some things about Xu Shuhui. Her ability to endure and strategize had propelled her to her current position, firmly grasping power within the third branch of the Lu family.
A person of this caliber couldn’t be underestimated.
Yu Anwan regained her composure and greeted Xu Shuhui calmly, “Mrs. Lu, is there something you need from me?”
Her tone was neither subservient nor confrontational, and there was little change in her emotional demeanor. However, Yu Anwan’s gaze remained fixed on Xu Shuhui as she patiently waited for her to speak.
Xu Shuhui looked back at Yu Anwan and nodded.
She was dressed in a well-fitted French-style dress and wore a lace hat. She had maintained herself excellently and spoke in a composed tone, “I apologize for taking up a few minutes of your time, Miss Yu.”
Yu Anwan remained silent, attentively listening to what Xu Shuhui had to say.
“Miss Yu, you must be curious about who leaked your mother’s formula in advance.” Xu Shuhui got straight to the point.
This time, Yu Anwan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression became subtly nuanced.
From Xu Shuhui’s words, Yu Anwan had more or less figured it out.
However, Yu Anwan wisely chose to remain silent.
Xu Shuhui didn’t seem to mind and continued, “It was Han Huiru. Are you familiar with her?”
Yu Anwan replied calmly, “She’s the canary your husband keeps on the side.” Xu Shuhui chuckled, “Canary? Well, she’s hardly that anymore.”
Yu Anwan nodded in agreement. Han Huiru was roughly the same age as Xu Shuhui, albeit a few years younger. Since Xu Shuhui had never given birth, she appeared more delicate and youthful than Han Huiru.
“But, Miss Yu, do you know about Han Huiru’s other identity?” Xu Shuhui inquired.
“I’m listening.” Yu Anwan maintained her composure.
Xu Shuhui gazed at Yu Anwan calmly before revealing, “She is your mother’s biological sister and your aunt.”
This revelation left Yu Anwan slightly taken aback. She had never heard Han Qingqiu mention having a sister, nor did she have any recollection of such a person.
Xu Shuhui explained, “It’s not surprising. After Han Huiru got involved with Lu
Chongming, she was determined to push me aside and become Mrs. Lu. As for Han Huiru’s past, it wasn’t particularly glorious. She always kept her head down and severed ties with the Han family. So, it’s perfectly normal that you’re unaware.”
Yu Anwan absorbed the information provided by Xu Shuhui.
However, she was well aware that Xu Shuhui wouldn’t joke about something like this. If she spoke of it, she must have concrete evidence.
“Your mother’s formula was copied by Han Huiru, with the intention of allowing her daughter to participate in a competition,” Xu Shuhui continued forthrightly. “You’re well aware of your mother’s capabilities and her connections within the Lu family. Given the circumstances, you’d be at a disadvantage. Her perfume would have a head start, and if you entered later, it would be seen as plagiarism without any benefits.”
This was a point that Yu Anwan clearly understood.
She then looked at Xu Shuhui earnestly and inquired, “I’d like to know, Mrs. Lu, what you expect me to do after sharing this information with me.”
“Miss Yu, I enjoy conversing with intelligent individuals.” Xu Shuhui smiled gently. “The significance of this matter can vary, depending on where the knife is aimed.”
“Mrs. Lu wants to ensure that they can never return to the Lu family!” Yu Anwan stated directly.
Xu Shuhui smiled warmly, not refuting Yu Anwan’s assumption.
“If they can’t return to the Lu family, it would naturally be advantageous for me. Han Huiru stole your mother’s formula, and you and Lu Nanxin have never had a good relationship. If something happens to them, it won’t harm you in any way,” Xu Shuhui calmly elaborated.
Yu Anwan nodded in understanding and then said with composure, “Thank you for sharing this information today, Mrs. Lu.”
Xu Shuhui looked at Yu Anwan.
Subsequently, Yu Anwan turned around and exited the car. Xu Shuhui’s associates did not attempt to stop her. After observing Yu Anwan’s departure, the black Rolls-Royce started its engine once again and drove in the direction of the hotel.
Xu Shuhui had come to Jiang City with the female head of the Lu family, Xu
Wan..
