Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1097: What Really Happened Back Then

Gu Wanqing invited everyone to sit down first.

Xinyan, being very perceptive, went to make a pot of tea and poured everyone a cup before sitting down.

He Jinxuan saw they were about to discuss serious matters and prepared to leave.

But Gu Wanqing called out to him: "Jinxuan, you should stay and listen."

Han Jingchen nodded at him from the side: "We’re all family going forward, you should naturally be aware of so matters regarding the Gu Family."

He Jinxuan understood that this was his parents-in-law fully accepting him, and kept glancing admiringly towards Xinyan.

His proud expression instantly delighted Xinyan, and she discreetly gestured to him with a sign that only they understood.

Gu Wanqing then cald down: "Uncle Liang, what exactly happened back then?"

Liang Dahai spilled out everything he knew: "Miss, Old Madam was truly killed by those greedy people. I was originally planning to swap clothes with Old Master and die in his place.

But Old Master wouldn’t agree, he said even if we could substitute for him this ti, eventually those people would find out, and it’s not worth losing another life.

Before he died, Old Master left so words, saying not to bring trouble to the descendants, everything else depended on fate, staying alive was more important than anything."

As he spoke, he took out a Jade Pendant: "Old Master said that when Gu Family mbers see this Jade Pendant, they would understand what it ans."

Gu Wanqing’s face turned very serious when she saw the Jade Pendant, because Mr. Gu also had an identical one.

Sitting beside her, Xinyan was even more shocked. When she visited her grandfather last ti, he gave her a Jade Pendant, only saying it was a family heritage and must be kept safe.

It seed it’s far more complicated than that, either grandfather was afraid to scare her and didn’t tell her directly.

Or perhaps, even he didn’t know the true aning of this Jade Pendant?

But in front of so many people, she couldn’t bring out her own Jade Pendant.

Afterwards, Liang Dahai said so more about Old Master Gu, but he hadn’t been by Old Master’s side for long, so there were a lot of things he didn’t know.

From Liang Dahai’s words, it wasn’t hard to discern how difficult Old Master Gu’s situation was back then. He used his life to earn the Gu Family a few years of buffer ti, but even so, the Gu Family nearly faced ruin.

It seed a trip back to East Province was necessary, to see if any useful information could be gleaned from grandfather.

Just as they sent Liang Dahai off, Han Jingchen received word that soone from the Li family couldn’t hold out and confessed so things.

Han Jingchen couldn’t afford to pay attention to anything else, and drove off directly using Gu Wanqing’s car.

When she returned, it was already mid-morning the next day.

She slamd the car door and ran into the courtyard, yelling into the house: "Wanqing, I’m back."

Inside, Gu Wanqing had just lulled her son to sleep. Hearing movent outside the courtyard gate, she wanted to get up to see if Han Jingchen had returned.

But with the noise, she dared not loosen her hold on her son, afraid he would wake up the mont she lifted her hand.

Han Jingchen pushed open the door, without speaking a word, Gu Wanqing glared at him, signaling: "Go outside, go outside."

Well, nothing is more important than a son’s nap.

Han Jingchen retreated, noticeably lightening his steps.

In the outer living room, he saw Sister Chen coming in from the courtyard: "Where are Xinyan and Jinxuan?"

Sister Chen responded with a smile: "Jinxuan received a call; he has an urgent task and needs to depart this afternoon. Xinyan took the car to give him a lift."

As soon as Sister Chen finished speaking, she saw Gu Wanqing sneaking out of the bedroom like a thief.
