Chen Meng’er didn’t directly answer everyone’s questions. It wasn’t that she was respecting the mastermind behind the Jiang family, but that she wanted to respect her eldest uncle. If it wasn’t for her eldest uncle’s reputation, that powerful family would have long disappeared from the capital.
Originally, Chen Meng’er had wanted to look for her eldest uncle to have a chat. However, she didn’t expect that before she could look for her eldest uncle, Qu Haoxiang would get kidnapped.
Hence, Chen Meng’er looked at her uncle.
When Chen Meng’er’s gaze landed on him, Qu Yaotian’s heart could not help but thump. Previously, when Chen Meng’er looked at him in the suburbs, he could still lie to himself. He could say it was just an accident and that the gaze that Chen Meng’er gave him might not have any special meaning.
But now, he could not lie to himself anymore.
!!
Even if he wanted to lie to himself, Elder Qu and the others would not give him the chance.
Previously, everyone was worried about Qu Haoxiang. Everyone’s attention was on how to safely rescue Qu Haoxiang. But now, Qu Haoxiang had been safely rescued. Now, everyone wanted to find out who was hiding behind the Jiang family and doing bad things to their family.
Therefore, when everyone saw Chen Meng’er’s gaze fall on Qu Yaotian, Elder Liu, who knew the truth, could not help but sigh in his heart. He had a good impression of Qu Yaotian, or else he would not have done his best to help Qu Yaotian get that position. Of course, he admitted that the main reason he would take action was still because of Chen Meng’er. If it was not for Chen Meng’er wanting Qu Yaotian to get that position, he would not have bothered about this matter. He remembered that Qu Yaotian was in a free relationship with the Han family. It was said that their relationship was not bad. Now that such a thing had happened, how was Qu Yaotian going to deal with it?
Elder Qu did not think as much as Elder Liu did. “Meng’er, is this matter related to the Han family?” Elder Qu asked as he glanced at his eldest son. He then said, “Lass, don’t worry about your uncle. Tell me the truth.”
“Meng’er, tell me. Don’t worry about me,” Qu Yaotian also said.
Hearing Qu Yaotian say this, Chen Meng’er did not have any more worries. Originally, even if she did not say it here today, she would have gone to look for Qu Yaotian alone later. The Han family’s actions had already crossed Chen Meng’er’s bottom line. She didn’t want to let them off on account of her uncle. “I found out that the mastermind behind the Jiang family is a member of the Han family. Moreover, my aunt was also involved in this matter.”
“What, you said Ying was also involved?” Elder Qu had already guessed that this matter might be related to the Han family. However, he also thought that it was the two brothers of the Han family and that his eldest daughter-in-law, Han Ying, didn’t know about it at all,
“Yes, Aunt Ying was also involved. Moreover, this matter was planned by Aunt Ying herself.”
“Why? Why did she do that?” Not to mention that Elder Qu and Qu Yaotian were extremely surprised by Chen Meng’er’s words, even Qu Yaobing had a look of surprise on his face. However, he knew that his daughter would not spout nonsense.
“Why? It was all for money. For power. She felt that our family was in her way. Didn’t grandfather say that he wanted to hand over the Qu family to me? She felt uncomfortable. She wanted to deal with me, but I was difficult to deal with, so she targeted my brother.” Chen Meng’er knew that Han Ying did not like her, but she didn’t expect Han Ying to kidnap her brother all because she was worried that she would take the position of the head of the Qu family, which belonged to her son. If she had known that Han Ying would have such thoughts, she would have thought of a way to get rid of them.
