Chapter 893: Would He Be X?
Ye Tianxin took out the notebook and flipped it to the part where she made a mark to show Xie Xuning.
“It’s true.”
Xie Xuning glanced at the contents of the notebook.
“Yeah. Li Zhiwei had a brother called Li Zhixing, but he pa.s.sed away many years ago.”
Ye Tianxin subconsciously thought that something felt off, namely by the fact that Li Zhixing was dead. The idea bugged her.
“Is it possible that he’s still alive?”
Ye Tianxin’s words stunned Xie Xuning for a moment.
“It’s quite impossible. If Li Zhixing’s still alive, the Li Family would definitely push him to a higher position. That would be beneficial for the Li Family, so they have no reason to fake Li Zhixing’s death.”
“Dad, my instinct tells me that there’s something wrong with Li Zhixing.”
Ye Tianxin could not explain why she felt like that. It was just a woman’s intuition.
Since his daughter had doubts, it was Xie Xuning’s responsibility as her father to figure it out.
“Okay. I’ll try and find out more about Li Zhixing.”
According to Xie Xuning’s memories, Li Zhixing had been dead for more than 10 years. What if he was still alive?
Where would he be?
What was his motive?
“Dad, let’s go back tomorrow since you’re so busy.”
Xie Xuning said in a low voice, “Grandmother likes Jiameng Town so much. You should accompany her and stay here for a few more days. I’ll go back by myself today as I need to attend the United Union’s conference.”
“Okay, I’ll ask if Grandmother’s fine with this arrangement.”
Grandmother replied, “I’d like to visit the temple.”
“Okay. Let’s go to the temple together tomorrow.”
Xie Xuning, who came and left in a hurry, left Jiameng Town by car after eating breakfast.
Ye Tianxin and Grandmother shopped around Jiameng Town’s market.
“Tianxin, should we buy some meat to make bacon at home?”
“Okay.”
The meat sold at the stalls in the market of Jiameng Town was of good quality because the pigs were bred by farmers nearby.
Grandmother chose some of the good ones and marinated them to make bacon.
“When the bacon’s ready, let’s give some of them to your Aunt. Although it’s only a small gift, it’s the thought that truly counts.”
The sun came out, making it hotter outside.
Ye Tianxin and Grandmother sat in the courtyard and started marinating the meat.
Zhu Dongmei suddenly ran into the courtyard and kneeled before Ye Tianxin and Grandmother.
“Aunty, please help me. Ye Guoliang, who has no conscience, wants to divorce me!”
Zhu Dongmei was not someone who would back down easily. She fought with Ye Guoliang in Shenhai City and led Ye Guoliang’s lover to have a miscarriage.
Ye Guoliang flew into a rage after discovering that it was a male fetus in his lover’s stomach. That alone was enough to convince him to divorce Zhu Dongmei.
“What does it have to do with Grandmother when he’s the one who wants to divorce you?”
Zhu Dongmei burst into tears and said, “Aunty, I know I’ve hurt you in the past, but you know very well how much I’ve done for the family while Guoliang was out working. I have to serve the old ones and raise the young ones at home. How could he divorce me just for a wench outside?”
Some people were always like that. They were cold-blooded when their interests were not affected.
Ye Tianxin snorted coldly. “You don’t have to beg Grandmother. She isn’t the slightest bit interested in your family matters. It has nothing to do with our family whether you’re going to divorce or fight each other…”
Ye Guoliang walked inside the courtyard and pulled Zhu Dongmei up from the ground. He asked Zhu Dongmei in a low voice, “What are you doing here? Aren’t you embarra.s.sed?”
“You have a lover outside. Isn’t that embarra.s.sing? She’s even pregnant. How can you say that I’m embarra.s.sed when you’re not embarra.s.sed by yourself?”
Zhu Dongmei gritted her teeth. How she wished she could kill Ye Guoliang.
