Outrageous! After kicking out the ex, she immediately became the aunt-in-law

"He Jinyan, real name is Shen Jinyan."

"Because of his break with the Shen family, He Jinyan was sent abroad. He was eventually found by his maternal grandparents. He then changed his surname to his mother's and announced to the public that he was no longer a member of the Shen family."

Hearing Chi Yuheng's words, Li Siying instantly remembered that when her mother had told her about the four major families in northern Beijing, she had mentioned that the deceased wife of Shen Guodong, the head of the Shen family, was the eldest daughter of the He family in Hongcheng.

"The He family in Gangcheng, the young master of the Shen family... ha!"

Li Siwei pursed her lips and sneered, "No wonder his background is so clean that there's not a single flaw to be found. And yet, he hid his past with his former company so well that not a trace of it was left... I thought the background check company I hired was of limited quality..."

"Huh! Turns out the clown is actually me!"

Giving the man beside her a cold look, Li Siwei took a half step back, crossed her arms over her chest, and glanced at him from head to toe. "So, from the beginning, you didn't intend to tell me that you knew each other. Otherwise, you would have told me He Jinyan's identity as early as in the practice room... Oh, no, when you knew I was planning to sign him, you would have told me."

"You didn't say it before, but now you suddenly say it..."

Li Siwei looked at him angrily, "Tell me, what happened here that I don't know about?"

Thinking back to the few times they'd met in the practice room before, how they'd acted so realistically in front of her. And then she thought back to the countless times she'd discussed signing a contract with He Jinyan with this man...

Li Siwei just felt like a fool.

I really owe them a little golden man!

"I didn't tell you before because..."

Chi Yuheng looked at her expression and said, "I don't think he is important..."

"unimportant?"

Li Siwei raised an eyebrow, "So you're telling me now because he's important again?"

She was almost laughing out of anger. She leaned against the sofa, staring at the man in front of her.

Chi Yuheng felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at him. He wanted to go forward and hold her in his arms, but Li Siwei stretched out a finger and pressed it against his chest.

"Don't hug each other, just stand here and talk."

Li Siwei's voice was slightly cold, showing an air of being ruthless and impartial.

The man paused and could only stand one step in front of her.

"I did think He Jinyan was unimportant before."

Chi Yuheng sighed slightly, "Although I have known him for a long time, it was also because of his elder brother Shen Jinxing that I didn't know much about him or pay much attention to him. Later..."

Seeing the girl's slightly raised eyebrows, he confessed frankly, "Because I saw the photo of you helping him choose the music for the competition, and I heard that you were planning to sign him, I had someone check his past over the years."

"So, what have you found out?" Li Siwei said with a forced smile.

"Well..." Chi Yuheng sorted out his thoughts and asked, "How much does Li Li know about the Shen family?"

"Me?" Li Siwei was a little surprised, but she still said subconsciously, "I know that the Shen family is one of the four major families in northern Beijing. They used to be in politics, and the current head of the family, Shen Guodong, is the only son of the late Mr. Shen."

"A few years ago, because I was dissatisfied with living in a small courtyard at work, I resolutely resigned and went into business, and went to Hong Kong to develop my career."

"After that, he married He Yushan, the eldest daughter of the He family in Hong Kong, and founded the Guoyu Group. He then returned home with his wife and son, and gradually shifted the focus of the Guoyu Group back to Beijing."

"Well, is there anything else?" Chi Yuheng nodded slightly.

Li Siying rolled her eyes at him and continued, "I also know that He Yushan and Shen Guodong have two sons. The eldest is your good friend Shen Jinxing, and the younger is my newly signed artist He Jinyan!"

She suddenly gritted her teeth and looked a little fierce.

Chi Yuheng didn't dare to offend her, so he could only flatter her and gesture for her to continue.

After snorting angrily, Li Siwei said, "I heard that He Yushan's health had been poor since she gave birth to He Jinyan. She was bedridden for many years and finally passed away."

"But within half a year, Shen Guodong remarried and brought his daughter, Zhao Xinkui, into the family, changing her surname to Shen."

"Not only did Shen Guodong treat Shen Xinkui as his own daughter, but because Miss Shen admired the Third Master of the Chi family, the head of the Shen family and his wife discussed marriage with the Chi family many times. After receiving the Chi family's tacit approval, they simply sent their daughter to Country M, where she accompanied the Third Master Chi for five whole years without any status..."

"Li Li..."

Chi Yuheng immediately pulled her into his arms, "You know very well that Shen Xinkui and I have no relationship. Those things about the marriage are all rumors. My parents never agreed to it, and I have never met Shen Xinkui privately in Country M..."

"Oh? Really?"

Li Siwei leaned back slightly, with a look on her face that said, "Do you think I believe it?"

"Really, everything I said is true."

Chi Yuheng immediately pointed his finger to the sky, "I swear, I really have nothing to do with Shen Xinkui, and the Chi family will not marry into the Shen family! If I dare to deceive Li Li, I will suffer..."

Before he could swear, a soft hand covered his lips, blocking his words.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Siwei glanced at him angrily and withdrew her hand, "Let's talk business."

"Since you've repeatedly reminded me to pay more attention to the dispute between He Jinyan and his former agency, there must be something wrong. Tell me, what have you found out?"

"Could it be that the Shen family is the one who has been suppressing He Jinyan?"

"Smart!" Chi Yuheng raised an eyebrow in surprise, then nodded in agreement with a smile, "Sure enough, it has to be my Li Li..."

As he said this, he gave Li Siwei a thumbs up.

"Don't be so boring, get to the point."

Li Siying was amused by his deliberately flattering appearance. She slapped his thumb away and tried hard to suppress her laughter. "So, Shen Guodong just watched his own son being tortured like that, without noticing anything unusual?"

"Tsk tsk tsk! It turns out that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather!"

After being stunned for a second, Chi Yuheng realized that she had misunderstood and immediately began to explain.

"Because it's not just Zhao Lingzi who has been suppressing He Jinyan."

Li Siwei: “?!!!”

"You mean..."

Her expression was a bit cryptic. "It was Shen Guodong who had He Jinyan's former agency terminate his contract, suppress him, and ban him? He also secretly pressured Teacher Pei and wanted to disqualify He Jinyan from the competition?!"

"That's right." Chi Yuheng nodded, "And there's more."

After leading the person to sit on the sofa, he continued, "The story of He Jinyan's breakup with the Shen family is a long one. I'll ask Cheng Bai to give you the investigation materials later. Take your time to read them."

"But to put it simply, Shen Guodong used Aunt He and the He family to establish the Guoyu Group, and then betrayed Aunt He by having an affair with his secretary Zhao Lingzi during their marriage, and fathered an illegitimate daughter."

Facing Li Siwei's surprised eyes, he nodded, "Yes, this illegitimate daughter is Shen Xinkui."

"Zhao Lingzi was unwilling to be just a mistress who was not allowed to be seen in public. After giving birth to Shen Xinkui, she designed to reveal the matter to Aunt He, who was about to give birth."

"Aunt He was deeply moved and gave birth to He Jinyan. This is why He Jinyan, despite being the second son of the Shen family, is still a few months younger than Shen Xinkui..."

"What a pair of shameless old bastards!" Li Siying was so angry that she started cursing.
