"Huh, this is..."
Zhang Yan looked at Lin Wanxi, "Is this Cousin Wanxi?"
Lin Wanxi smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's been years since we've t, and you've beco even prettier."
Zhang Jun chuckled, "Since Yan'Er has returned, you cousins can have a chat."
"Wanxi, don't leave at noon, stay and have lunch with us."
After speaking, he secretly signaled to Zhang Dehou, and the father and son got up to leave and went inside to talk.
In the main room, only the three of them were left.
Chen Xuan kept silent, not actively acknowledging Zhang Yan, after all, that childhood engagent was a thing of the past and didn't count.
"Cousin, is this your driver or... your boyfriend? He's quite handso." Zhang Yan had a smiling face.
Lin Wanxi glanced at Chen Xuan and introduced him with a smile, "He is my husband, Chen Xuan."
"Chen Xuan?" Zhang Yan's expression slightly changed, staring at him blankly, "You're also nad Chen Xuan, your hotown isn't Jiangnan City, right?"
Chen Xuan smiled helplessly, the secret couldn't be kept hidden, it was useless to conceal it, "Hello, Zhang Yan, I am indeed that Chen Xuan from back then."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's face dropped instantly, "So it really is you! You ended up with my cousin."
"Cousin, did you know this guy was once engaged to as a child?"
Lin Wanxi chuckled lightly, "I just found out, but your dad just said the engagent doesn't count."
"Of course, it doesn't count." Zhang Yan scoffed, "His family has fallen, he's not worthy of at all!"
"Cousin, how could you fancy him? Did he cling to you, shalessly living off you?"
"Don't look down on Chen Xuan like that, he's very capable." Lin Wanxi's face showed displeasure.
Ha ha!
Zhang Yan sneered disdainfully, "With soone like him, what's capable about him, other than being a bit good-looking."
"But it's good this way, I have nothing to do with him anymore, and don't need to worry about him pestering ."
"To be honest, I also have a boyfriend now, and he's the young master of the Zhu Family, a second-ranked family!"
Her gaze flitted to Chen Xuan with a look of contempt.
That expression was saying, he's much better than a loser like you, Chen Xuan!
Chen Xuan wasn't bothered by Zhang Yan's words, it's better to have it out in the open than to have the issue of the childhood engagent be a lingering problem.
Although Lin Wanxi wasn't too happy, she didn't want to argue much with Zhang Yan to avoid ruining the harmony.
After lunch, Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi got up and left.
"Chen Xuan, I think Uncle and Grandpa should know so information, but they're unwilling to speak."
Lin Wanxi looked at Chen Xuan, expressing her opinion.
Chen Xuan nodded, "Yeah, I noticed that too."
"I suspect the incident of my parents being hunted down is related to so major force."
"Could it be one of the four top-ranked families?" Lin Wanxi pondered, "There was information hinting at that in my uncle's words."
Chen Xuan pursed his lips, "It may be related to the top families, but I think it's at most indirectly connected, not the mastermind."
"Hmm? Why do you say that?" Lin Wanxi asked in surprise.
Chen Xuan replied, "The Ma Family in Jiangbei City was once coerced by n in black, which is a known fact."
"If the top family from Jiangnan City was the mastermind, they couldn't threaten the Ma Family."
"That's my speculative reasoning!"
Lin Wanxi suddenly understood and agreed, "Your analysis makes sense! Being top families themselves, the Ma Family has no reason to fear them."
"Moreover, in the territory of Jiangbei City, the Ma Family wouldn't easily be coerced without any power to resist! Hence, the people who chased your parents must have had significant backing!"
Chen Xuan squinted his eyes, "No matter who they are or how powerful they are! Once I investigate thoroughly, they will surely die!"
Lin Wanxi gently pulled him, "Don't get overly emotional, to investigate this clearly, you need to stay calm."
Chen Xuan nodded, "Don't worry, I won't act recklessly, I will handle this properly."
"Moreover, you should be wary of the Zhang Family, they have ulterior motives."
"No way?" Lin Wanxi's gaze was unsettled.
Chen Xuan sneered disdainfully, "Their change in expression escaped my eyes."
"Earlier was just a performance of sentintality with you! They only ntioned missing your mother, completely ignoring your aunt."
"Two daughters, only missing one while completely neglecting the other, that makes explaining the issue very difficult."
Lin Wanxi understood, "You an, they want to gain sothing from ?"
"Exactly!" Chen Xuan confird, "New Moon Company has gained fa lately due to its health products."
"Your Grandpa and Uncle have their eyes on this, so they want to maintain good relations with you. Yiyi's parents don't have as high a profile as your company and can't bring direct benefits to the Zhang Family, so they're never ntioned."
Lin Wanxi's eyes fluctuated, "Then I need to be extra cautious, can't let them deceive , sell out and count their money."
"But after all, they are my Grandpa and Uncle, can't show too obviously either. Alas, it feels like the situation has beco unusually complex now..."
