Chapter 404: Chapter 404: Admiring Your Ability to Cause Trouble
After Xiao Jiu’s explanation, Ye Xunhuan finally understood that Qi Shijie was the son of Qi Jieyu and another man, not actually fathered by her current husband, Jiang Wenhao!
As for who that man was, Jiang Wenhao didn’t know either, but what he did know was that Qi Shijie had no blood relation to him at all, and Jiang Wenhao’s willingness to marry into the family wasn’t as simple as everyone thought.
According to what Jiang Wenhao told Xiao Jiu, the Jiang and Qi families had been close for generations, and the Jiang family was also the second largest shareholder of Xinhe Corporation!
Only the Jiang family had been secretly plotted against by the Qi family, tricked, and their shares were all obtained by illegitimate means, and during the process, Jiang Wenhao’s parents were harmed!
As a result, the Jiang family was almost overnight brought to ruin and decimation, fortunately, at that time, Jiang Wenhao wasn’t too old and managed to escape disaster by changing his name and identity.
Not until over twenty years ago did he return!
His reason for marrying into the Qi family was to find an opportunity to take back what originally belonged to his family, the Jiangs, to exact revenge!
Even though he knew Qi Shijie wasn’t his own son, he still pretended to be ignorant of this fact and coexisted peacefully with Qi Jieyu.
After enduring silently for over twenty years, he dreamed of taking revenge.
But so many years had passed, the Qi family’s roots had grown deep, and seeking revenge was easier said than done, and Xinhe Corporation was completely under the control of Qi Jieyu, practically her one-word rule!
Even though Jiang Wenhao was within Xinhe Corporation, the power he could exercise was very limited!
So for many years Jiang Wenhao was waiting for an opportunity, a chance for revenge!
Once, Jiang Wenhao considered collaborating with Dongfang Shu, to get rid of Qi Jieyu, but Dongfang Shu was just too ruthless. Cooperating with her was like seeking skin from a tiger!
This forced him to consider very carefully.
Just when he was nearly unable to bear it any longer, thinking that even though cooperating with Dongfang Shu was like seeking skin from a tiger, he was willing to gamble everything, he didn’t need anything if it meant avenging himself!
But just then, Ye Xunhuan appeared.
He made Qi Shijie lose face, as well as the entire Qi family.
Moreover, Jiang Wenhao learned that the four top experts around Qi Jieyu seemed to have all fallen, stirring up excitement in his heart.
So he secretly made contact with Ma Yingjun, and through him found Xiao Jiu!
"Damn, this plot is as melodramatic as a TV drama," Ye Xunhuan swore, "But this Jiang Wenhao is absolutely a crafty hawk!"
"Being able to share a bed with his enemy for so many years and, even after knowing his son isn’t his, still damn well acting like nothing’s wrong, I must admit, I can’t match his patience," Ye Xunhuan said with some admiration!
"Isn’t that the truth!" Xiao Jiu agreed: "When I found out all this, I damn well couldn’t believe it either, but Jiang Wenhao even damn well sent me the paternity test, and he even said that if I didn’t believe it, he could provide everything for me to redo the test myself!"
"Xiao Jiu, did you check?"
"I checked!" Xiao Jiu said firmly: "Xinhe Corporation was indeed established by two people together, and even the company’s name was derived from their two brothers’ names!"
"Only a car accident later led to the death of one’s entire family in a fire," Xiao Jiu sighed softly: "From then on, Xinhe Corporation was completely controlled by the Qi family, holding absolute controlling interest!"
"Everything is pretty much as Jiang Wenhao described to me!"
"How credible do you think it is?"
"I don’t know!" Xiao Jiu shrugged and said, "These businesspeople are full of deceit and intrigue; who knows how credible they are!"
"But Jiang Wenhao’s grudge against the Qi family should be real!" Xiao Jiu added another sentence, "He gave me some information, all about Qi Jieyu’s business crimes, but it’s all useless!"
"He said Qi Jieyu is very cautious when doing things, not even confiding all matters to her own trusted family."
Ye Xunhuan pondered briefly, "Regardless of whether it’s true or false, you first make contact with Jiang Wenhao; if it can be confirmed, then directly subvert Qi Jieyu and let Jiang Wenhao take her place!"
Dongfang Shu wanted to use herself to kill Qi Jieyu, but if she was to prop up a Jiang Wenhao, then what would Dongfang Shu do?
"Boss, I think we need to consider this carefully, a man who’s been able to endure for over twenty years — that kind of cunning is not something the average person can match. Even if it really is true, afterwards..."
"Xiao Jiu, I know what you are worried about, but in the face of absolute power, everything is as if it were illusory," Ye Xunhuan said faintly. "If it weren’t for wanting to avoid unnecessary trouble, Qi Jieyu would already be repenting in hell, and Dongfang Shu might be scared of me like a rat is of a cat right now!"
Seeing Ye Xunhuan say this, Xiao Jiu nodded, "All right, I’ll make contact with Jiang Wenhao and see what happens; if it’s possible, I’ll start handling it myself!"
"Hmm!"
"Bro Ye, I’m planning on taking action against the Mu family in the next couple of days. Remind your sister-in-law; if she has any designs on the Mu family’s assets, she’d better act fast and not miss out on a good opportunity, lest you say I didn’t think of you guys when the time comes!"
"Got it!" Ye Xunhuan nodded. "By the way, Xiao Jiu, be careful. When I arrived, I saw that there were people watching you around here..."
"Just some dogs from the National Security Bureau, don’t mind them!" Xiao Jiu said dismissively. "Let them watch if they want to, I’m not doing anything illegal anyway!"
"Pretty smart, knowing that they can’t get anything from me, they’re targeting you," Ye Xunhuan said with approval.
"Bro Ye, to be honest, I think we should really give them a taste of their own medicine sometime," Xiao Jiu said with disdain. "Everyone is hypocritical to the extreme; they clearly want your Taiji Seal, yet act like they’re all virtuous!"
"I’ve always despised these sanctimonious hypocrites in my life!"
"There’s another thing I need you to do for me!"
"Keep an eye on Xu Mingzhe for me; I’ve got a beef with that son of a bitch!"
As Ye Xunhuan spoke, he couldn’t help but picture the bodyguard beside Xu Mingzhe in his mind — Black Ghost!
This was definitely a martial arts expert, even more formidable than the Blue Clothes that were with Qi Jieyu.
If Xu Mingzhe also decided to stir trouble at this point, things might get a little complicated.
Ye Xunhuan was right to be concerned, as Xu Mingzhe indeed had plans to deal with Ye Xunhuan!
"Fuck, Bro Ye, you’re awesome, seriously awesome. You’re about to take on some of the biggest names in Zhonghai Province!" Xiao Jiu gave Ye Xunhuan a thumbs-up. "I can’t help but admire your troublemaking skills!"
At this moment, neither Ye Xunhuan nor Xiao Jiu knew that Qi Jieyu had not only made a new connection and gained an ally, but they were also unaware of a great monk named Xu Yun who had appeared in Jiangzhong City!
