"Grandpa, you're here."

Qiao Wenhan gathered all the respect on his face, on such a rainy day, Old Man Qiao came in a hurry, presumably something big happened. He didn't dare to slack off. It's just that the porter just came to inform me that there were two people coming, why did I only see one grandfather?

"I came to see you, I heard you were sick."

Helping Old Man Qiao to sit down, Qiao Wenhan closed the curtains, turned on all the lights, and asked the maids in the kitchen to bring some tea and refreshments, everything was as Old Man Qiao was used to.

He memorized them all.

"It's not a big problem, no, it's cold, it's a little cold. Is something wrong? “

Qiao Wenhan is not a fool, Old Man Qiao is such an idle and wild crane person, there must be something important, but this time point is too coincidental, but when An Xiaoxi knew about the feud between the Liao family and the Qiao family, Qiao Wenhan was a little suspicious by nature, and the elders had been hiding something, so they had to find a way to get some out.

"Things do exist, but they ......"

"Just what?"

"It takes some patience on your part."

"You say."

The atmosphere became serious, and the tea that Qiao Wenhan put on his lips also felt a little bitter, and after only taking a sip, he lost all interest in tasting.

"How much do you know about An Xiaoxi?"

Old Man Qiao went straight to the point, and the situation that Qiao Wenhan expected seemed to have happened ahead of schedule. Everything points to the relationship between the Liao family and the Qiao family.

"I know that she has an older brother named Liao Yunfan, and a father, who we just met. Their Liao family seems to have some misunderstanding with our Qiao family...... So...... My relationship with her hasn't been very good lately either. “

Qiao Wenhan said it more vaguely, of course, this is all the information he has.

"Oh, so you didn't inquire about Liao Shikai?"

The old man didn't believe that Qiao Wenhan didn't do a background check on An Xiaoxi's relatives who suddenly appeared, and it was obvious that Qiao Wenhan hadn't confessed to him yet.

"I checked some, about his past industries and projects, after he left suddenly, we bought them, and the person who did this at that time was my uncle."

Qiao Wenhan inquired about the Liao family and did not shy away from Liao Yunfan's accusations. Their Qiao family is indeed suspected of stealing the Liao family's business, and after Liao Shikai disappeared, the Su Group was actually the main force to take over the Liao family's business. Jinqiao Group did not get involved directly.

But later, Su Chenfeng's father also disappeared mysteriously, and the Su Group was temporarily taken over by the Jin Qiao Group, because considering the orphans and widows of Su Chenfeng's family, there was no problem with the Qiao family's approach, which was logical. After finding these things, Qiao Wenhan did not check further.

"Then do you know why your brother-in-law took over the Liao family's business?"

Qiao Wenhan was confused and puzzled.

"I don't know. I didn't find anything more. And my uncle-in-law has been gone for so many years, no one knows what happened at the beginning, after all, he handled these things alone, and even his aunt didn't know, let alone Morrowind. “

Qiao Wenhan didn't hide it from his grandfather, and he explained everything he knew. Old Man Qiao didn't have too many emotional ups and downs, because everything hadn't exceeded his understanding, and he knew much more than Qiao Wenhan.

"Since neither you nor Morrowind know, that's a good thing. There are some things that you don't know but are easier to do. “

Old man Qiao has something to say, Qiao Wenhan didn't understand it for a while, what does it mean to "don't know but it's easy to do"? Could it be that his grandfather is still brewing some secret matters? He didn't want to ask directly, his grandfather had always had his own opinions, and he hated it when others inquired too much about his affairs.

"What you don't let us know, naturally you have a reason, and I won't ask about this. But ......"

Qiao Wenhan raised his eyes and tentatively looked at Old Man Qiao's expression to guess whether the next sentence should be said or not.

"You say, it's just the two of us here, don't shy away from it."

"However, where did I just learn from An Xiaoxi today that her mother's death seems to be related to the Qiao family?"

Qiao Wenhan tentatively threw this bombshell, and the teacup that Old Man Qiao raised to his lips stopped. This kid knows a lot of things, and An Xiaoxi is not from their Qiao family after all, and he can bring more news from the Liao family to disturb the morale of the army.

"Where did she hear that?"

"Before I could ask, she fell ill. I guess it's her brother or her father, but I heard rumors that his father has severe memory impairment and Alzheimer's disease, maybe it's wrong. “

Qiao Wenhan felt that this matter was very serious, and it could be inferred from his grandfather's sudden positive expression, so he found a step and resolved it with alarmism.

"He's not mistaken, it's true."

Old Man Qiao said these words so calmly, but he didn't expect the "rumors" in An Xiaoxi's mouth to be true, not groundless. Now An Xiaoxi is still unconscious, and the people who know the truth are none other than the elders of the Liao family and the Qiao family.

"Then, our Qiao family is really ......"

Qiao Wenhan asked a tentative question, and Old Man Qiao took another sip of tea and sorted out his thoughts before slowly speaking.

"It was a fire, the cause was the birthday gift sent by the Qiao family, the top aromatherapy white roses, who knew that the Liao family was careless, the house was on fire, and those flowers were easy to burn, so the young grandmother of the Liao family was trapped in the fire and was not rescued. The people are gone, and since then the Liao family and the Qiao family have also formed a feud. “

Old Man Qiao spoke lightly, as if he was describing a movie clip.

"So, didn't our Qiao family put the fire, just because of that gift?"

Qiao Wenhan continued to ask, and a trace of sadness flashed in Old Man Qiao's eyes.

"That fire is related to the Qiao family, but the Qiao family will definitely not be able to do such a thing. It's all because of bad fate. Your parents are really ...... It's so ignorant. “

As he spoke, Old Man Qiao began to cough, his whole face was red from the rapid coughing, and his voice became hoarse and dry.

Qiao Wenhan couldn't bear to let his grandfather continue, so he hurriedly asked someone to bring a bowl of loquat dew, and Old Man Qiao barely calmed down after drinking it. mentioned that incident, the old man obviously didn't care too much, but when it came to Qiao Wenhan's fathers, the old man seemed distressed.

"Since it has nothing to do with the Qiao family, why is the Liao family still biting and forcing ......?"

The words that almost blurted out were swallowed by Qiao Wenhan. And Old Man Qiao had already sensed the clue and forced him to finish his words.

"Forcing what? Who was forced by whom? “

"forced me to break up with An Xiaoxi, and today she suddenly fell ill because she came to tell about it. She couldn't stay with me, so she started torturing herself. “

Qiao Wenhan was a little uncomfortable, and his heart was like a big thick sponge, which made him breathless.

"Who forced her?"

"Her brother, Liao Yunfan."

"Liao Yunfan?"

Old Man Qiao was thoughtful, he had already withdrawn from the business dispute, and the world of young people was no longer very well understood. But the name is somewhat familiar, as if it has been heard somewhere before. It's not just the investigation report handed in by his subordinates, but in life, I have actually seen this person.

Maybe it's because he forgets things too much, but Old Man Qiao desperately recalls but can't find any memory fragments.

That is, An Xiaoxi's elder brother, who had also fought directly with the Qiao family before. My Wedding...... It is also thanks to him. “

mentioned the thrilling wedding at that time, Qiao Wenhan still felt afraid. is so thoughtful, and he has done a good job of inserting Anna around Qiao Wenhan, this Liao Yunfan is really a dangerous character.

"Oh...... It's him. “

Old Man Qiao suddenly realized.

"This young man once came to me through an intermediary and asked me to make an investment, but I refused. Thinking about coming to Qiao's house, not all cats and dogs can accept it. This man...... Too much thought. “

"Moreover, it took a lot of trouble to recognize An Xiaoxi at the beginning, and I even suspected that he was not An Xiaoxi's brother at all, just to find out the news of our Qiao family from the inside. Pity...... The final DNA identification results are beyond doubt, they are indeed brother and sister. “

"Is it that the brother and sister are no longer tight, what this Liao Yunfan wants to do is nothing more than to avenge his mother, am I right?"

Qiao Wenhan nodded, stood up, and paced left and right, he was very anxious, on the one hand, An Xiaoxi's body, and on the other hand, he was worried that the Liao family's actions would put them in an unprecedented predicament.

"Revenge, but the Qiao family didn't do anything to be sorry for them, where did he get his revenge?"

Qiao Wenhan didn't understand.

"There are some things, maybe that Liao Yunfan himself is not clear, he only saw one side, not the other side."

"I don't know, how many sides of these things are left, but I will definitely figure it out, please rest assured."

This sentence is not like a reassuring pill for Old Man Qiao, but like a war letter. The old people did so many things that shouldn't have been, why should the young people bear it.

Up to now, no one is willing to stand up and take on everything. Qiao Wenhan didn't understand, let alone look down on such an approach.

"It's good that you can figure it out, it's just that a lot of times, housework and business things are mixed together, and there's nothing black and white to judge."

Qiao Wenhan looked at Old Man Qiao, his hair was gray, wrinkles were crawling all over his face, and the once commanding figure had now become cringe. He didn't want to be like this, a stream of blood surged up in his head, and those old things could never affect the love between him and An Xiaoxi.

This is his bottom line, and no one wants to touch it. Otherwise, he, the tyrant, could turn into a real tyrant.

"I'm old, if you want to take care of that mess, you can take care of it, but don't put the entire Qiao family into it, this is my little request."

The old man seemed to want to say something more to Qiao Wenhan, but at this time, someone knocked on the door and asked Qiao Wenhan to go out, saying that An Xiaoxi had woken up.
