Zhu Yanyi’s father was furious. She never expected someone to target her child. If Zhu Shengyao were here, she would beat her like a punching bag and tear her apart.
“Father, Zhu Shengyao is the son-in-law of the Chen family in Xiangshui. His wife is Chen Jiahui, sister of Chen Jiahao. He hired people to assassinate Dean Gu Jingtian last time,” Taishu Yuanxiang added.
“What a nest of rats,” Zhu Shunyao frowned. He had never seen such black-hearted people. “Why did they try to kill Doumiao?”
“We can only ask Zhu Shengyao later. Nikiska only cooperated with him. Zhu Shengyao paid Nikiska thirty thousand gold to deal with Doumiao. Nikiska agreed because he needed money. According to Nikiska, Zhu Shengyao analyzed that Doumiao is Chinese. Chinese people are protective. Even if Nikiska was wrong, they wouldn’t blame him too much. He would just be locked up for a year or two. So he dared to do it,” Yan Aohan said while drinking tea.
“Is this related to Zhu Shenfu or Chen Jiahao?” Xie Zhong asked directly.
Yan Aohan shook his head slightly. “Nikiska’s confession doesn’t mention this. Both Zhu Shenfu and Chen Jiahao are our enemies. They are relatives by marriage. It makes no difference if it is one or both.”
Zhu Yanyi pondered. Whether it was Zhu Shenfu or Chen Jiahao, they hadn’t appeared directly. The direct person involved was Zhu Shengyao. If she moved against Zhu Shengyao, Zhu Shenfu and Chen Jiahao would definitely interfere. It would alert them. It was better to deal with Zhu Shenfu and Chen Jiahao directly.
Zhu Yanyi rubbed her head. It was a headache. Yan Aohan saw this and frowned slightly. He grabbed her hand. “Why are you hitting your head?”
“It hurts. Zhu Shengyao is causing trouble for no reason. We don’t know if Chen Jiahao and Zhu Shenfu are supporting him. But one thing is sure. If we move against Zhu Shengyao now, Chen Jiahao and Zhu Shenfu will join forces.”
In Zhu Yanyi’s heart, Zhu Shenfu was never her grandfather. She felt no respect for her.
Yan Aohan smiled lightly. “Isn’t it easy to deal with Zhu Shengyao? We can eliminate him secretly.”
Zhu Yanyi’s eyes lit up. She had forgotten Yan Aohan’s abilities. “Let’s secretly catch Zhu Shengyao and interrogate her.”
“Just find an opportunity. It is easy for one person like Zhu Shengyao.”
“I will handle this,” Taishu Yuanxiang said with a smile. “I have some connections in Xiangshui. We don’t need to do it ourselves.”
“Okay, you do it.” Before Zhu Yanyi could speak, Zhu Yanli spoke up. “Beat her up first, then interrogate her. My Doumiao is not easy to bully.”
The Zhu family members all protected their own. Not only Zhu Yanyi, but Zhu Yanli too.
“No problem,” Tai Zuo said. Taishu Yuanxiang agreed immediately. It was just Zhu Shengyao. With good planning, they could do it secretly.
“By the way, which family should we cooperate with for the Huaxia and Xiangshui project?” Zhu Yanyi looked at Yan Aohan.
Yan Aohan’s information was very accurate. “The higher-ups are currently evaluating the Chen family and the Shangguan family.” He smiled. “I will add some fuel to the fire.”
Yan Aohan’s fuel was not added for nothing. With his interference, the Chen family would have no hope.
Zhu Yanyi understood Yan Aohan’s meaning. She nodded. “Do as you say. Add fuel to the fire. The Chen family still has energy to jump around. They haven’t suffered enough. Let’s stop them.”
Without Huaxia’s support, even if the Chen family was powerful, it would be useless after Xiangshui returned. A family could not resist a country.
“Some families really don’t need to exist. If they appear and are not obedient, they are meaningless,” Yan Aohan said. This was essentially Huaxia’s stance.
Huaxia allowed families to develop, but not above the state. If a family did not respect Huaxia, it had no reason to exist.
After finishing the discussion, Zhu Yanyi sent everyone to rest. She told Xie Xinlian, “Mother, Aohan and I have something to do tonight. We won’t eat at home.”
“Go ahead,” Xie Xinlian said. She knew her daughter was busy.
Taishu Yuanxiang knew Luo Gang had booked a room at the Capital Club. She looked at Zhu Yanyi. “Who are you meeting?”
“Brother-in-law’s information is really fast,” Zhu Yanyi answered with a smile.
“You chose the Capital Club. It is hard not to know,” Taishu Yuanxiang said, laughing and crying.
Zhu Yanyi smiled. “It is people from Hua Family Village, descendants of Hua Yi. I want to open a traditional Chinese medicine school. I want to trick some traditional doctors to teach there. Hua Yi is one of them.”
Zhu Yanyi had not told anyone about Hua Family Village. Xie Yijun and others knew Xie Jingyun was harmed by Hua Gu, but only knew it was related to Mao Wan’er. They did not know about Hua Yi.
“By the way, when do you plan to open the school?” Taishu Yuanxiang admired Zhu Yanyi. “I will invest some money too.”
“It is still in planning. Opening a school is not easy. Many things need to be considered,” Zhu Yanyi said seriously. “There will be results within five years.”
That night, Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan went to the Capital Club for dinner.
The current chief of Hua Family Village was Hua Tian, Hua Na’s father.
Hua Na and Hua Yun were sent to the Capital Club by Luo Gang. When they opened the room and saw Hua Tian, they were stunned. Hua Na went directly to hold Hua Tian’s arm. “Father, why are you here? I missed you so much.”
“Father.” Not only Hua Tian came, but Hua Yun’s father, Hua Mu, also came. Hua Yun acted coquettishly with Hua Mu, just like Hua Na.
Hua Tian glared at Hua Na and Hua Yun. “You are very bold. You actually used Hua Gu on ordinary people.”
