"Yeah, Qian Er, that’s impossible. Jiang Xue is just a woman without any significant background. How could she have such influence?"
They simply couldn’t believe it, couldn’t believe that all of this was because of Jiang Xue.
Listening to everyone, Qian Er also felt he might have overthought it, so he said to them, "The other party didn’t tell who it was, they just asked if we had offended anyone recently."
"Damn, why didn’t they just tell us directly?"
"Exactly, should I call to ask?" soone suggested.
"Sure, I’ll make a call too to see who the puppeteer behind all this is."
With that, everyone except Young Master Wang went to make calls. Watching them, Young Master Wang walked towards Jiang Xue.
"Jiang Xue!" Young Master Wang called out, then asked, "Jiang Xue, is all of this related to you?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xue raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What do you think?"
Jiang Xue hadn’t overheard their phone calls, but judging by their expressions, they had clearly encountered trouble. However, this trouble wasn’t sothing she had sent them, so she wasn’t sure if it was related to her.
Although she had reached out to the Yang Family for help dealing with so of the powerful families, she didn’t think the Yang Family had such capabilities. Otherwise, they would have taken action long ago, rather than waiting until now.
The only possibility was that soone was helping her behind the scenes. And the only person who could help her without conditions, aside from Mu Qiancheng, was no one else.
Even though she didn’t want Mu Qiancheng involved in this matter, it was clear he ended up getting involved, and with significant effect.
Young Master Wang gave Jiang Xue a deep look; even though Jiang Xue didn’t admit it, he was already certain that the matter was related to her.
He wanted to plead with Jiang Xue to show rcy, but thinking about their involvent with the assassin, he swallowed back his words. Before resolving the issue with the assassin, he had no grounds to ask for her forgiveness.
With this in mind, Young Master Wang returned to Qian Er’s side and, looking at the distorted expressions of those who had made calls, said, "We were wrong, gravely wrong."
"Wang Jun, have you gone mad, saying sothing like that?" Qian Er looked at Young Master Wang, also known as Wang Jun, puzzled. What did he an by saying they were wrong? How were they wrong?
"Qian Er, whether you believe it or not, I feel this matter can’t be unrelated to Jiang Xue. If we want to mitigate our losses, we should consider withdrawing the assassin’s order and sincerely apologize to her."
"Wang Jun, are you sure you haven’t gone crazy? How could a village girl have such capability?" Qian Er glanced at Jiang Xue and said.
"Qian Er, believe what you want!" Wang Jun finished speaking just as the others finished their calls and returned.
"So, how is it?" Qian Er asked urgently, wanting to verify Wang Jun’s statent.
"Just like you, they wouldn’t reveal anything, only ntioned we’ve offended soone recently."
"Exactly, who is targeting our families like this? Honestly, we haven’t offended any big shots recently."
"Yeah, I’ve been keeping a low profile lately, no trouble, how could I have offended anyone important?"
Heeding everyone’s words, Qian Er furrowed his brow, then relayed Wang Jun’s thoughts to them. Upon hearing this, their expressions changed drastically, "Impossible!"
They were unwilling to believe this was because of Jiang Xue. It’s not that they underestimated Jiang Xue, but they had investigated her background thoroughly and found no powerful connections, let alone such a strong one.
