"Ugh……"

Zhu Yinghua sighed lightly and did not continue for a while.

"Zhu Congwen and his son were kicked out of the house, so they had a hard time. I only heard later that Zhu Qi had left Hong Kong City, but I have no idea where he went.

Half a year ago, Zhu Congwen, who was already seriously ill, also passed away..."

Zhu Zifan explained.

"So your Zhu family has such a shameful past."

Xiao Yi said directly.

Judging from what they just said, the grandparents and grandchildren were very frank.

However, he was still trying to determine whether the two were putting on an act.

Could it be such a coincidence?

He had just found out about Zhu Congwen and the deceased Zhu Qi, and these two invited him to dinner and told him about their family's past?

"Brother Xiao, this matter is the biggest stain on my Zhu family. It is the thing that cannot be mentioned. Even at that time, except for a few people in the Zhu family, the entire Zhu family did not know about the matter between Zhu Congwen and that organization.

Even when he was kicked out of the Zhu family, Grandpa used other reasons. "

Zhu Zifan continued.

"Too embarrassed to say it!"

Zhu Yinghua's voice sank.

"This is not just a matter of face for the Zhu family, but even a single misstep could lead to eternal regret!

If Zhu Congwen and his men had really taken one more step forward, it would have pushed the entire Zhu family into the abyss, from which there would be no recovery!"

"grandfather……"

Zhu Zifan wanted to comfort her, but swallowed it back.

"Zhu Congwen is dead, but what about Zhu Qi? Have you ever thought of looking for him?"

Xiao Yi asked deliberately.

"He's a family criminal, why would we look for him? I can almost conclude that he left Hong Kong City with a determined heart, and maybe even got involved with some forces.

He even tried to borrow some strength to return to the Zhu family!"

Zhu Zifan's tone also changed.

"If one day I can prove this, I...I will definitely do everything I can to send him to see his father!"

In front of Xiao Yi, Zhu Zifan did not hide his hatred and anger, and even his murderous intention towards Zhu Qi.

After all, it concerns the reputation and even survival of the Zhu family, not to mention that it is also a huge threat to his own family's status!

Up to this moment, Xiao Yi had basically ruled out any suspicion he had about the Zhu family.

He felt... he seemed to be really being led by the nose, and he felt quite angry.

"Zhu Qi is dead."

Xiao Yi didn't hide it anymore and finished the glass of wine.

"died?"

Zhu Yinghua's expression changed.

"How did Brother Xiao ..."

Zhu Zifan asked subconsciously, but didn't finish.

how?

Could it be that... Xiao Yi knows everything about Zhu Qi or Zhu Congwen?

So Xiao Yi's identity...

Also, why did Xiao Yi pretend to know nothing just now? Was it to test the two of them, the grandfather and the grandson?

So why try?

"I don't know much. I just learned most of the details from you."

Xiao Yi didn't explain much, nor did he care what the grandfather and grandson thought of him.

"Old Patriarch, the Xishan Tourist Area is your Zhu family's property?"

"Xishan?"

Zhu Yinghua frowned and looked at Zhu Zifan, who also looked confused. Why did the topic suddenly become Xishan?

"Brother Xiao, what did you find out?"

Zhu Zifan was confused.

"This...can't be said."

Xiao Yi shook his head.

"Xishan..."

Zhu Zifan was thinking.

"Grandpa, it must be one of my older brothers or uncles who is blindly developing an industry in private again!"

Zhu Zifan made a judgment and looked at Zhu Yinghua.

Zhu Yinghua had a look of disappointment on his face. These things seemed insignificant, but in the end, they were all blamed on him!

Once this happens, Huo An or those above him will naturally not tolerate it indefinitely!

"This is your family affair, you guys handle it yourselves. Let's get back to the point. Zhu Qi's body is now in the abandoned building in Xishan."

Xiao Yi said.

"He's in Hong Kong?"

Zhu Zifan frowned.

"How could he die in..."

Before Zhu Yinghua finished speaking, his expression changed drastically.

"Mr. Xiao, the person behind this is deliberately trying to throw the blame on my Zhu family. You must open your eyes and be careful."

Zhu Yinghua's tone changed, even though he was not clear about the details, even though he was not clear about Xiao Yi's identity.

But this meal tonight left him with a feeling of something stuck in his throat, and he was speechless.

"You just said that the person behind this has a big appetite and wants to play with both your two families and me in the palm of his hand."

Xiao Yi's voice also sank. He was confused as to who was involved.

Also, if all this had nothing to do with the Zhu family, he would never have told the other party about the existence of the Taiping Society.

"Mr. Xiao, I know that you are still not able to dispel your suspicion of the Zhu family. My whole family is willing to cooperate with the investigation! Give my Zhu family a clean name!

From now on, no matter if Mr. Xiao or Mayor Huo need anything, my Zhu family will definitely help them with all their strength!"

Zhu Yinghua said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yi's eyes flashed and some ideas popped up in his mind.

“Brother Xiao, I…I didn’t expect the misunderstanding to be so deep!”

Zhu Zifan felt a little scared.

Xiao Yi finally gave them a chance to explain, otherwise it would only cause more trouble.

"Master Zhu, just now... I forgot to toast you back."

Xiao Yi said this, picking up the wine glass.

Zhu Yinghua was a little confused, but still picked up the wine glass.

"Thank you for the hospitality, Patriarch Zhu."

Xiao Yi said.

"No...you're welcome."

Zhu Yinghua shook his head.

At the moment, Xiao Yi was simply a mystery in his eyes. The more he couldn't figure him out, the more fearful he became.

"Next..."

Xiao Yi paused and put down his wine glass.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, as if waiting for Xiao Yi's judgment.

"It doesn't matter. Let's just do what the other party wants first."

Xiao Yi continued to speak.

"Mr. Xiao, please speak!"

Zhu Yinghua sat up straight, and could tell that Xiao Yi must have some idea...

Then, they chatted for a while.

At the same time, somewhere in Hong Kong.

"How come...it's so peaceful?"

An old man was half lying on the bed with a complicated expression on his face.

"According to their speed, they should have found Zhu Qi's body long ago."

His son was the only one by the bed, and he was obviously a little restless.

"Could it be possible that he was really discovered?"

The old man's heart sank.

"No way... I'll send some more people..."

The man frowned.

Just then, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

The man's face changed and he hurriedly opened the door.

Outside the door was a woman in a red dress, extremely seductive.

"how?"

the man asked anxiously.

"The law enforcers have arrived at Xishan!"

The woman walked in on high heels and came to the old man's bed, her voice very soft.

"very good!"

A look of joy appeared on the man's face, and the old man on the bed also felt relieved.

"Next, all we can do is wait..."

The woman sat down and crossed her legs.

"So where did Xiao Yi come from? Have you found out?"

the old man asked.

"It doesn't matter. We have received news that the Heavenly King is in the capital, and the other two Heavenly Kings are not nearby. This is good news for us!"

The woman looked indifferent.

Hearing this, the nervous mood of the father and son was relieved.

And so the three of them chatted for a while until late at night.

There was another knock on the door, and a man hurried in, ignoring the father and son, and knelt on one knee in front of the woman.

"I just received news that the authorities have taken action against the Zhu family!"

The comer reports.

"understood."

The woman said lightly, waved her hand, and the man retreated.

"It's done!"

The middle-aged man finally couldn't sit still anymore and stood up and said excitedly.
