Chapter 268: Truly Haunting Like a Ghost
CHAPTER 268: CHAPTER 268: TRULY HAUNTING LIKE A GHOST
Wan Tianyi forced a smile: "My father never discusses things with me, his eldest son. Let’s put it this way, he values Ningning more than me. So, whatever purpose he bought the Tai Sui for, I would have no idea."
"Ningning?"
Zhan Hanjue frowned.
He was internally displeased, thinking the Ningning Wan Tianyi mentioned was Ye Ningwan.
Wan Tianyi saw his expression and quickly explained: "Ningning is my sister, she’s thirteen this year. To be honest, she resembles your wife a lot."
"Oh, it’s your sister. But, what kind of opinion could such a young child have? Your father would rather discuss things with her than you?" Zhan Hanjue was puzzled.
Wan Tianyi sighed repeatedly: "Who knows what he is thinking, whatever, I’m used to it and resigned to it. It’s just a pity that I can’t help Mr. Zhan to get the Thousand-year-old Tai Sui. However, Mr. Zhan could actually go find someone, she might have a way, my father holds her in high regard as well."
"Who is Mr. Wan talking about?"
"A familiar face to Mr. Zhan, Li Qingqing, do you still remember?" Wan Tianyi said.
Zhan Hanjue’s face slightly darkened.
Wan Tianyi noticed his bad expression and quickly forced a laugh: "I know, Mr. Zhan and Li Qingqing have some misunderstandings. But anyway, they almost became a married couple. If she can help, why would Mr. Zhan be so resistant?"
"Do you know where Li Qingqing is?" Zhan Hanjue asked.
Wan Tianyi nodded: "She’s doing livestreams as an internet celebrity now, with quite good results. Perhaps Mr. Zhan hasn’t been paying attention to this aspect, so doesn’t know. Many stars, after failing in the entertainment circle, become internet celebrities to make money. My father is willing to support her, so how could it be hard for her to make money?"
"Does Mr. Wan know why your father supports her so much?" Zhan Hanjue asked.
Wan Tianyi shook his head: "I’m not sure about that, there were rumors saying she is my father’s illegitimate daughter. But I’ve investigated, she is not, we have no blood relation. Others say she is my father’s mistress, but that’s pure nonsense. My father has always been clean and upright, and has deep affection with my stepmother, how could he possibly keep such a woman outside. So, I don’t know what the exact relationship is, just that he treats her well. Maybe the Thousand-year-old Tai Sui was bought for her. If Mr. Zhan really wants that Tai Sui, he should go visit her."
"Here’s Li Qingqing’s address, if Mr. Zhan is willing, go take a look."
Wan Tianyi took out a piece of paper with an address written on it.
Zhan Hanjue thanked Wan Tianyi.
Wan Tianyi quickly waved his hand: "You’re welcome, Mr. Zhan and I hit it off right away, I’m also very happy to help Mr. Zhan."
At this moment, Wan Tianyi’s phone rang.
He picked it up for a glance and frowned.
Zhan Hanjue looked at him with a deep gaze.
Wan Tianyi answered the call while standing up, asking gently: "What’s wrong?"
The person on the other end said something, and Wan Tianyi continuously replied: "Okay okay, don’t be angry, I’ll head over right now. Be good, and tell me what you want to eat, don’t get upset."
After hanging up, Wan Tianyi said to Zhan Hanjue: "Sorry, Mr. Zhan, I have something to attend to, I must leave first."
Mr. Zhan nodded: "Mr. Wan, attend to your matters, we’ll chat next time."
Wan Tianyi hurriedly left, seeming truly urgent.
"Wu, send someone to follow him, see who he’s going to meet." After Wan Tianyi left, Zhan Hanjue called Wu in.
During the call, Wan Tianyi was so gentle, and he left hurriedly. It seems the person on the other end is very important to him.
"Yes, boss."
After Wu left, Zhan Hanjue looked again at the note on the table, which had an address written on it.
He checked it on his phone; it was a famous rich residential area in Philadelphia.
It seems this Li Qingqing wasn’t sent to a mental hospital, but is enjoying her prosperous life in Philadelphia.
To meet or not to meet, that’s the question.
Zhan Hanjue thought it over and decided to go back to discuss with Ye Ningwan first.
On Ye Ningwan’s side, she had dinner with Tang Lu, then went to visit the Tang Family.
To lower Tang Lu’s vigilance, Ye Ningwan had Wangyue follow discreetly, not daring to let her appear openly.
But now, going to the Tang family, Ye Ningwan could only call Wangyue over.
Upon arriving at the Tang Family, Wangyue couldn’t sneak around anymore.
"I have another sister nearby, I’ll ask her to come over with me," Ye Ningwan said.
Tang Lu didn’t object: "Sure, should’ve invited her earlier. It’d be nice to have her join us for dinner."
Ye Ningwan smiled.
Bringing Wangyue along, the three returned to the Tang Family.
Tang Lu’s sudden visit with Ye Ningwan startled the Tang Family members.
Understanding Ye Ningwan’s identity, they were quite surprised.
They endlessly expressed surprise, having never expected the hospital rumors from those years were true.
"Miss Ye, what do you think about this matter?"
On the way back, Wangyue asked Ye Ningwan.
Ye Ningwan said: "What else can I think, I can only accept it as it is for now. But it’s also good, Mrs. Wan might turn out to be my aunt, which gives me a chance to visit the Wan Family."
Back at the hotel, Zhan Hanjue had already returned.
Seeing her return, Zhan Hanjue took the initiative to greet her.
The two took a short rest before integrating their collected information and exchanging it.
Ye Ningwan said: "It seems Mrs. Wan really isn’t my mother. That’s fine, I’ll go seek recognition tomorrow. Hopefully, on account of being relatives, they’ll share some Tai Sui with us."
Zhan Hanjue shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, based on what I heard from Wan Tianyi today, even Mrs. Wan might not know the purpose of the Tai Sui."
He told the story about Li Qingqing.
Ye Ningwan was irritated: "How come she’s everywhere, like a lingering ghost."
"Wan Tianyi gave me her address, suggested I go find her." Zhan Hanjue handed Ye Ningwan the note.
Ye Ningwan looked at the address, clenching her lips: "Not going might be exactly what she wanted, which is for Wan Tianyi to say that, waiting for you to find her. Once you go, she might just devour you."
"What, are you afraid I’ll suffer?" Zhan Hanjue asked with a smile.
Ye Ningwan said: "Of course, you’re my man."
She spoke while forcefully pulling him closer to her.
Zhan Hanjue chuckled and kissed her cheek: "Don’t worry, I’m yours, no one can take me away. You’re right, let’s find Mrs. Wan first. Perhaps as relatives, she’ll ask for the Tai Sui for us. After all, rumors say Wan Yu Feng is very fond of her. If she asks, he shouldn’t refuse."
"Mmm, you make sense."
At this point, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Wu pushed the door open and entered.
Zhan Hanjue asked: "How did it go? Did you see who Wan Tianyi arranged to meet?"
"It was Wan Tianci. He supposedly wanted some pizza, so Wan Tianyi went to buy it for him. Wan Tianyi queued up personally and rushed to buy the pizza, delivering it to the school entrance for Wan Tianci." Wu said.
"Wan Tianci?" Zhan Hanjue frowned.
Wan Tianyi left so hurriedly, speaking in such a gentle tone.
He thought it was Wan Tianyi’s sweetheart.
Unexpectedly, it was his younger brother.
A brother is that good to his sibling?
As an only child, he truly cannot understand.
