Reborn, I am doing involution on Jinshan
Chapter 143: The Mystery of the Fox Gold Bracelet
Duan Qingyang sneered, "Mom, times have changed. It's no longer the era where marriages can save a business. If a business lacks competitiveness, even a hundred marriages won't help. As long as you're willing to give me a chance, I can definitely lead the Duan family to greater heights."
Duan Yihai pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly, "You may have some truth in what you said, but this is a serious matter. I can't make a decision based on just a few words from you. How about this? First, bring the girl you like home for dinner. If she's as good as you say, we can discuss it later."
Duan Qingyang's eyes lit up, "Thank you, Dad. I believe you will definitely approve of her."
He was filled with joy thinking that he finally had the opportunity to formally introduce his daughter to his family, and he secretly vowed to prove that his choice was right. Although Luo Peiqi still looked worried, she could only acquiesce temporarily.
Duan Yihai knew very well that his son was also a stubborn person. Saying more would be useless and would only rekindle the conflict that had just been eased.
"What about Donghua? Is the Yinduan marriage going to fall through?"
Luo Peiqi looked at the father and son with displeasure. How come each of them was worse than the other? Although she didn't like Yin Donghua either, she never liked other women, including Du Ruping, who gave birth to a son. She made things difficult for them everywhere, so the only person she liked was her youngest daughter Duan Yuting.
Seeing the two men despising women, she felt very unhappy and retaliated reflexively.
Luo Peiqi snorted and said, "You men are always like this, thinking you can dominate everything. But no matter what, if this thing goes wrong, Qingyang, you have to bear all the consequences."
Duan Qingyang responded confidently: "Mom, don't worry, the Yin-Duan marriage will continue as usual, there will be absolutely no problems. This time, the choice is up to the woman."
So he told the two old men his plan, which left them stunned. However, it was indeed a good idea, just a bit of an imitation.
Duan Yihai waved his hand. "Alright, let's stop arguing here. It's settled. Arrange for that girl to come over for dinner as soon as possible."
After Duan Qingyang left the study, Luo Peiqi turned to Duan Yihai and complained, "How dare you agree to him so easily? What if that girl isn't anything special? We'll offend the Yin family."
Duan Yihai sighed, "My son has grown up and has his own ideas. I can't keep suppressing him. Besides, this is definitely not the era where marriage alone can solve problems."
Luo Peiqi shook her head helplessly, still feeling uneasy. At this moment, Duan Yuting came running in, curiously asking, "Mom and Dad, my brother looked so happy just now. Is there something good going on?"
Luo Peiqi looked at her innocent daughter, forced a smile and said, "Children, don't meddle in adult affairs."
Duan Yihai caressed his youngest daughter Yuting's fur lovingly, "I heard that your brother punished you two to help grandma wash the vegetables. What did you do to make your eldest brother unhappy?"
"I just wanted to find out who Yin Xiaoyao was, and my brother got furious."
Duan Yuting finally found an opportunity to help her elder brother with her parents' help.
Duan Yihai and Luo Peiqi exchanged a look, both startled. Duan Yihai frowned, "Yuting, why do you suddenly want to ask about Yin Xiaoyao?"
Duan Yuting pouted and said, "My brother kept repeating this name, so I was curious. But he got mad at me and even made me water the vegetable patch twice as much as usual." Luo Peiqi pondered, "It seems this Yin Xiaoyao is very special to Qingyang."
At this moment, Duan Qingyang happened to pass by the door and heard this. He walked in and said, "Dad, Mom, Yuting is asking around without any reason. I have my own plans for Yin Xiaoyao's matter."
Duan Yuting stuck out her tongue at Duan Qingyang, "Hmph, stingy brother." Duan Qingyang shook his head helplessly.
Duan Yihai said seriously, "Qingyang is just an adopted daughter. She is a thing of the past. Donghua is the legitimate daughter. If you really give the choice to her as you said, our Duan family cannot afford to lose face."
Duan Qingyang nodded firmly, "Dad, don't worry. I know her. She is not the kind of person who would deliberately make things difficult or embarrass the Duan family. And I believe that my vision is not wrong." After saying that, he turned and left, leaving his family with a puzzled look on their faces.
Duan Qingyang went to Du Ruping's room first. It was empty, the wardrobe was in a mess, and it seemed that the clothes were half too small. The papers all over the floor expressed the hostess's dissatisfaction. He picked up the scraps of paper scattered on the bed and found that they were all his handwritten love songs. He remembered that one year he lost a handwritten songbook, and it turned out that Du Ruping had stolen it.
How much he loved her then, how much he hates her now. He can't figure out who has betrayed whom and who has benefited the most. In the face of fate, he is just a pawn of the family.
In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.
He only knew that as long as he stood firm, he and his son would have food to eat. Now Du Ruping was full of hatred and might even seek revenge. He had made it clear enough in the past eight years, so he could only wait until she calmed down.
Duan Qingyang decisively left the room, returned to his master bedroom, and decided to take a cold approach for a few days.
A few days later, on September 9th, Duan Qingyang returned to his upscale mansion in Liucheng. He turned on his computer and saw over ten messages from his special assistant, Huang Jingyu, on QQ, all about Yin Xiaoyao's recent situation.
Huang Jingyu: [Mr. Duan, Yin Xiaoyao has become a trending topic about the Su family's daughter being kidnapped. However, it seems to have been interfered with. I quickly saved one for you to enjoy.]
Huang Jingyu: [Mr. Duan, I've found Yin Xiaoyao's freshly baked, spicy, and hot medical records. Let me show you. She seems to be a "glass person" with a congenital blood coagulation disorder. I've done some research and found that even minor wounds can cause uncontrollable bleeding. People with this condition don't live long. Normally, men are more likely to inherit the condition, so I don't know why she has it too. I also had someone investigate her family, and they don't have this genetic disorder.]
Huang Jingyu: [Mr. Duan, the expert has already confirmed that the fox bracelet is priceless. However, when I asked him again, he refused to answer. He also asked me who the fox bracelet belonged to, and if he was still alive, he told us not to monopolize it, as it would harm the original owner.]
Duan Qingyang frowned, feeling a little uneasy. He immediately replied to Huang Jingyu, asking him to contact the expert again and get more information about the fox bracelet.
Duan Qingyang then leaned back in his chair, lost in thought. Could this fox bracelet be hiding some profound secret? If, as the experts claim, possessing it alone would kill the original owner, would Yin Xiaoyao be in danger? After all, the bracelet was now connected to her.
Huang Jingyu immediately sent over a stack of medical records: "Mr. Duan, Yin Xiaoyao's medical records in Kyoto are top secret, even hackers can't steal them. But according to our informant, we've obtained her hospital admission records from a trip to Hainan Island, where she was diagnosed with frequent fainting spells. There's news that she was carried into a sports car by a young man yesterday and appeared to be unconscious. This... this?"
At that moment, his cell phone suddenly rang. It was his mother calling. Luo Peiqi's anxious voice came over: "Qingyang, your father just received a strange call. He said we stole her owner's gold fox bracelet and the Senxie wants to deal with us. They don't seem like good people." Duan Qingyang was startled. It seemed that the bracelet had attracted the covetousness of many forces.
He decided to go find Yin Xiaoyao in person tomorrow to find out about the bracelet. No matter how complicated the conspiracy behind it was, he must protect Yin Xiaoyao and never let her suffer any harm because of this mysterious fox bracelet.
He had only used shady means to attract her attention and marry her; he hadn't really intended to kill anyone. Murder cases are the most difficult to clear.
