Chapter 556 Mother-in-law’s Secret
Song Yunying was not a fool. She knew that her mother-in-law stood by Xue Tao and they both hated her.
Since her mother-in-law was in her way, she would make her feel the pinch.
Song Yunying smiled to her father-in-law with her baby in arms, “Dad, you and mom have just come back. You must be tired. I’ll take Changbo out for a while. Have a good rest.”
Xue Tao’s mother rolled her eyes and watched Song Yunying holding her baby out.
She didn’t talk to her husband until Song Yunying was out, “Her baby doesn’t look like our son.”
When Xue Tao’s father heard his wife, he was unhappy and shot her a black look, “What are you talking? Her baby is the eldest grandson of our family. What do you mean by that?”
“What? I’m just feeling that baby doesn’t look like Tao. I’m Tao’s mother, and I know what my son was like when he was born. Now I have a grandson who doesn’t look like my son. I have every right to suspect it. Is there anything wrong with that?”
Xue Tao’s mother was furious while speaking.
Xue Tao’s father frowned upon her. He was done with arguing with her and left.
Song Yunying called Song Yunxuan as soon as she was out with her baby.
Song Yunxuan had not arrived home yet. By that time, she received her sister’s call and a.s.sumed that she must be in some trouble.
She picked up the phone and asked, “Sister, what’s wrong?”
Song Yunying repeated what Xue Tao’s mother had just said and pleaded, “Yunxuan, if I can’t shut my mother-in-law up in the Xue Family, things will be tough for me.”
Song Yunxuan slightly lowered her eyes and intended to teach her sister a lesson.
Big as the Xue Family was, if she wanted it, she should fight for it.
When Song Yunying fought for her inheritance in the Song Family before, she played all dirty tricks. Yet she turned to a moron after she had a baby in the Xue Family. All she did was to seek for Song Yunxuan’s help.
Song Yunxuan was unhappy about it and said, “Sister, sometimes you should strive for it yourself.”
“I know, but I can’t afford to act rashly. What if I crack? My mother-in-law has already doubted me because of Changbo’s appearance. What if my son’s hair or something is taken to do a paternity test when I leave him alone?”
“Fine, stop it. I see.” Song Yunxuan didn’t hear Song Yunying out. She interrupted Song Yunying.
Song Yunying was somewhat uneasy, “Yunxuan, you have to help me.”
“I’ll find a solution after I go back.” promised Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunying then hung up the phone.
It was already afternoon.
It took her more time than she expected at Song Yunying’s place.
When they arrived home, it was already dark.
Chu Mochen had waited for her at the door with his hands in pockets.
Seeing her getting down from the car, he asked her, “Where have you been? Why are you back so late?”
Song Yunxuan felt a little amused, “You’re acting like a housewife who waits for her husband at home and wants a detailed report of his whereabouts.”
“Because I didn’t send someone to follow you today,” said Chu Mochen.
Song Yunxuan slightly raised her eyebrows and smiled. She walked into the living room while answering him, “I went to Gu Changle this morning and visited my little nephew in my sister’s house in the afternoon.”
“How are they doing?”
Song Yunxuan put her bag down and asked Chu Mochen back on the sofa, “Who are you talking about? Gu Changle or my sister?”
Chu Mochen sat next to her and said at ease, “Tell me both.”
Anyway, he could check it out on his own even if Song Yunxuan didn’t tell him.
The servant served flower tea for Song Yunxuan.
Song Yunxuan took a sip and then said, “Gu Changle is not good. It seems that she is very sick. Shao Tianze is keeping her accompanied.”
“There will be a consequence if Shao Tianze has been accompanying her like this.”
Song Yunxuan smiled without any words.
He was right. Shao Tianze accompanying Gu Changle in the hospital was good news for Song Yunxuan. The longer he stayed with Gu Changle, the more time she had to acquire the scattered shares of the Shao’s or persuade those big shareholders out.
“As for my sister, she’s not good, either. Her mother-in-law has a big problem with her.”
“She asked for your help again?” Chu Mochen asked.
Song Yunxuan smiled and did not deny it.
Chu Mochen hesitated for a moment before asking, “What are you going to do with that?”
Song Yunxuan put down the delicate porcelain cup in her hand and then said, “I’ll let Yunying have something on her mother-in-law.”
Song Yunxuan smiled, and her face lit up, “One can be well-behaved only when they feel threatened.”
Chu Mochen saw Song Yunxuan’s smile and shook his head slightly.
Song Yunxuan had always been eager to set others up.
It had almost been one of her instincts.
“Have you found anything?”
“I haven’t. Everyone has his secret. Let’s wait and see.”
Song Yunxuan was going to get something on Xue Tao’s mother.
She would conduct a thorough background investigation upon her.
In less than three days after the investigation, Song Yunxuan discovered something weird.
“Shenda Group’s boss seems to be very close to Xu Mei.”
Xu Mei was Xue Tao’s mother’s name.
Mei Qi knew that Song Yunxuan was trying to get something on her, so he handed Xu Mei’s information to a detective club that he was familiar with.
The detectives club didn’t fail Mei Qi and Song Yunxuan. After three days of continuous stalking, they had Xu Mei’s call recording and the conversation’s content.
Song Yunxuan looked at Xu Mei’s call recording and smiled, “Look into Shenda Group’s boss deeply. I didn’t have any impression on him before.”
Hearing her instruction, Mei Qi added, “His name is w.a.n.g Yang. He was one of the seniors of Shenda Group before. His wife divorced him six years ago, and it seems that he is sterile and has no child.”
“Show me the details.”
Gu Changge had made her way in the business world of Yuncheng for many years, and she knew almost all of the eminent businessmen.
If she didn’t know, it meant that they weren’t that important.
And w.a.n.g Yang did not leave any impressions on her before.
She asked for the detailed profile, and the detective club sent it over quickly.
Mei Qi gave her the fax.
When Song Yunxuan had a look at the profile, she could not help but laugh, “He’s fat and horrible, but he was pretty good-looking before.”
Song Yunxuan held w.a.n.g Yang’s profile.
Her words caught Mei Qi’s attention.
Mei Qi glanced over w.a.n.g Yang’s old photo that the detectives appended.
Just as Song Yunxuan said, w.a.n.g Yang was indeed handsome when he was young.
In the photo, he looked like twenty-three or twenty-four and was rarely good-looking.
Of course, there was still a gap between him and Shao Tianze.
And the gap between him and Chu Mochen was much greater.
Let alone compared him with Xue Tao’s father at a young age.
“Xu Mei was gorgeous when she was young.”
Looking at Song Yunxuan putting the old photos of Xu Mei and w.a.n.g Yang together, Mei Qi praised Xu Mei was a beauty in her youth.
“So, a.s.sistant Mei, do you like such a beauty?”
“I don’t like her.” Mei Qi answered, and his eyes were placed on w.a.n.g Yang’s photo, “But, w.a.n.g Yang must like her.”
“Exactly.” Song Yunxuan smiled.
At this time, the fax machine over there was faxing something again.
Song Yunxuan took a glance at the fax machine, and Mei Qi handed over the fax to her.
Song Yunxuan took it over and found it was w.a.n.g Yang’s criminal record.
“You really can’t judge a book by its cover. I can’t tell he is a brute from his photo,” sneered Song Yunxuan.
What he had done was printed clearly on the fax.
When he was twenty-four years old, he raped an 18-year-old girl and got arrested for it. Moreover, he was accused of the intentional a.s.sault, hit-and-run, robbery and so on. Thus he was sentenced to 16 years in prison for all his crimes.
He was supposed to be out at 40, but he was freed at the age of 36.
After that, he was even hired by Shenda Media.
In 14 years, he stepped up to the corporate ladder of Shenda from one of workers at the ground level.
Furthermore, his promotion speed had been incredibly rapid in the last three years.
Song Yunxuan checked w.a.n.g Yang’s promotion record in the recent three years.
Then she looked at Senda Group’s business performance and business partners in the recent three years. She laughed grimly.
She placed all the files down on the table and said, “I think w.a.n.g Yang is in very capable hands.”
“Manager Song, the Xue Family was the closest business partners of Senda in the past three years. You mean that the Xue Family is helping w.a.n.g Yang?”
“The Xue Family maybe not. Xu Mei must be.”
Song Yunxuan was positive about it.
Xu Mei must have something to do with w.a.n.g Yang. Otherwise, he would not have been able to be promoted so quickly on his own.
Mei Qi frowned, “Manager Song, what do you think of?”
“I guess that Xue Tao’s father might be cuckolded. a.s.sistant Mei, what do you think?”
Mei Qi instantly understood, “You mean that Xue Tao might not be his son?”
“I’m not sure about this. Maybe we can have the answer only when we confront Xu Mei.” Song Yunxuan smiled and couldn’t help lamenting, “So many secrets in the Xue Family.”
The daughter-in-law had a secret, so did her mother-in-law.
