Chapter 106 You Have a Good Father-in-Law as Your Backer
"To tell you the truth, there was actually an accident before Yuanyuan returned to China," Jiang Cheng said.
"What did you say?" Lin Qingran looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise.
Jiang Cheng nodded heavily. "That's right. Perhaps Rongrong wanted to help you, which is part of the reason. But when we were abroad, Yuanyuan and I were already being followed."
That happened before Fu Rongrong told Jiang Cheng about it and asked her to bring Jiang Xinyuan back to China.
Before Jiang Cheng received Fu Rongrong's call, if neither of them had told anyone, then only the two of them knew that Fu Rongrong wanted to send Jiang Xinyuan to Lin Qingran's side.
However, the other party's surveillance of them began before this point in time.
What does this mean?
Perhaps many things were already foreshadowed when Lin Qingran and Fu Rongrong first reunited.
"Besides, Shen Qiyan and Rongrong aren't close, and he knows other people abroad. Why does it have to be Rongrong? He could hire anyone else, just a private investigator." Jiang Cheng said gravely.
“I didn’t think much of it before, but after I first discovered that Yuanyuan and I were being followed, I always felt that this was a test.”
She was testing whether Fu Rongrong would help Lin Qingran, and whether Fu Rongrong would side with the Fu family or Lin Qingran after learning about these things.
"Some things may have already been beyond our control."
Lin Qingran nodded solemnly, "You're right. Even if my true identity has become the talk of the town, it might still be something Zhou Lan can use against me. However..."
Lin Qingran looked up at Jiang Cheng, "You mean, Rongrong suddenly told you about you bringing Yuanyuan back to China?"
“Yes, that’s why I find it strange,” Jiang Cheng said.
“Rongrong, although she is not a descendant of the main branch of the Fu family, she is related to the Fu family in some way. No one in the country would dare to touch her easily. Even if they wanted to follow her, they might not be able to find out Rongrong’s true whereabouts. That’s why I’m in such a hurry to bring Yuanyuan back to China. I thought that at least in China, those who target us would be more restrained, but I didn’t expect them to still make a move.”
Jiang Cheng gave a bitter smile. "So I think their actions may not only be aimed at you. Perhaps even our family of three is someone she deems doomed to die."
Lin Qingran gasped.
According to Jiang Cheng, it's very likely that someone already knew that Fu Rongrong planned to bring Jiang Xinyuan back.
This also means that Fu Rongrong will stand firmly by Lin Qingran's side.
Therefore, their initial tracking of Jiang Cheng and his daughter might have been a test. Once they learned that they were really going to return to China, their goal became to disrupt them, or even imprison them and make them unable to extricate themselves.
Only in this way can Lin Qingran have one less layer of support, thus pushing her towards isolation and helplessness in the later stages.
It is highly likely that a traitor has appeared among Lin Qingran's own people.
Lin Qingran leaned weakly against the wall and said in a hoarse voice.
“A few days ago, Sheng Hai Group had an accident. Although things seem calm on the surface recently, they have actually been searching for the mole. I couldn’t figure out who the mole was before. But now, I have the answer.”
Jiang Cheng frowned at Lin Qingran, "Who do you think it is?"
Lin Qingran raised her head, "Yes..."
-
When the two came out of the cubicle, Fu Rongrong was already asleep.
Lin Qingran walked to the bedside, checked on her, and only after confirming that she was alright did she take her leave.
Fu Xiuheng was still standing at the door of the ward, arguing with Bo Ye. Neither of them was willing to back down, and Fu Xiuheng showed no intention of leaving.
Fu Xiuheng's expression softened only after he saw Lin Qingran come out of the door.
He looked at Lin Qingran, "You're back."
"What are you saying?" Bo Ye frowned.
“Our home is in Yuncheng. We’re just visiting friends in Beijing. Don’t act like the host of the house.”
Fu Xiuheng sneered, "I haven't agreed to divorce her yet."
“After she left, your marriage automatically became invalid, regardless of whether you agreed or not. Even if you didn’t agree, we are still legally husband and wife.”
"Lin Qingran!" Fu Xiuheng's expression changed, and he raised his voice.
Bo Ye instinctively shielded Lin Qingran behind him, saying, "Show me some respect."
"Aye, don't argue with him pointlessly."
Lin Qingran pressed down on Bo Ye's shoulder, and Bo Ye reluctantly stepped back, crossing his arms and glaring at Fu Xiuheng.
Fu Xiuheng's expression was unpleasant, but when he faced Lin Qingran, it softened slightly.
He softened his tone and spoke to Lin Qingran.
"I'd like to talk to you alone."
"You can say whatever you want to say here," Lin Qingran said.
"I came here to see Rongrong. I have other things to do afterwards, so please tell me as soon as possible."
Fu Xiuheng frowned. "Are you really that unwilling to spend time alone with me?"
Lin Qingran looked at him calmly without saying a word.
Fu Xiuheng lowered his head, speaking as if deflated.
"Okay, then I'll just tell you."
Fu Xiuheng looked at Lin Qingran, "I know why you came here."
Lin Qingran nodded slightly. "I heard from Rongrong that after the accident, she didn't even tell her parents because she was afraid they would worry. President Fu is indeed very influential. Even Rongrong's biological parents didn't know about it, but Mr. Fu found out immediately and came over so quickly."
Lin Qingran's words, while not exactly veiled, were still extremely pointed.
Fu Xiuheng naturally understood what Lin Qingran meant.
If it's a case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, then in Lin Qingran's view, Fu Xiuheng was that oriole.
Moreover, what he did was not honorable.
Fu Xiuheng felt a surge of annoyance and pinched the bridge of his nose.
“I came here to tell you all this. You have to believe me, I absolutely did not harm Rongrong. Shen Pei’an did those things in Nancheng without informing me beforehand.”
"But you and Shen Pei'an have a partnership, haven't you?" Lin Qingran shrugged and spread her hands.
"If you hadn't harbored resentment towards Shenghai Group and secretly mobilized Shen Pei'an's men, why would Shen Pei'an have attacked my factory in such a panic after I revealed my identity? Wasn't it just to give me a warning?"
Fu Xiuheng took a deep breath and spoke as calmly as possible.
You've really misunderstood.
"What misunderstanding?" Lin Qingran asked back.
"Is it a misunderstanding? Did you not know beforehand that Shen Pei'an had his eye on that piece of land in Nancheng a long time ago? Or did you misunderstand that you dared to challenge Shenghai Group and even offer such harsh conditions because you have a good father-in-law as your backer?"
