Fu Xiuheng suddenly chuckled and said slowly.

"Look at you, Father-in-law, what are you talking about with fighting? I'm just a young man, how could I have any experience? It's you, Father-in-law, who has been through thick and thin for so many years, accumulating a lot of experience, and your men are very capable."

Shen Pei-an's eyes flashed, and he suddenly questioned her.

"Fu Xiuheng, you used one of my men?"

Shen Pei'an's question caused Fu Xiuheng on the other end of the phone to fall silent for a moment before he slowly spoke, "Father-in-law, this is just your guess. I, Fu Xiuheng, have always been upright and honest in my dealings."

"Hmph!" Shen Pei'an sneered. "Do you think I'm a three-year-old? I've had far more experience in the underworld than you over the years. Tell me, how do you plan to resolve this? If the Lin family gets implicated because of you, I won't let you off easily."

Fu Xiuheng's lips curled into a barely perceptible sneer. "Father-in-law, rest assured, I will handle this properly and ensure that the Lin family is not affected in the slightest. However, please keep your men in check and prevent them from speaking recklessly."

After saying that, Fu Xiuheng hung up the phone, his face turning gloomy.

He hadn't expected that Sheng Hai Group would be so bold as to confront them head-on.

He knew that if this matter was not handled properly, it would bring him enormous trouble.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan, which involved using people from Shen Pei'an's side.

Shen Pei-an may be stubborn, but in the end, he will still personally handle the matter.

"The first step has been resolved. Fu Xiuheng is currently preoccupied with his own problems, but he certainly won't let us off the hook."

At Yuncheng Hospital, Lin Qingran frowned as she wrapped oranges for Su Mian.

Su Mian sneered, "The kind of person he is will not give up until he achieves his goal. However, we are not to be trifled with either. This time we must make him pay the price, otherwise, he will only become more aggressive."

Lin Qingran nodded slightly, "You're right. I've already thought it through. I might as well take this opportunity to publicly reveal my identity as the president of Sheng Hai Group."

Su Mian straightened up with some surprise, "But this is too dangerous. Fu Xiuheng is already relentlessly pursuing you, and we don't know what he's up to. If you reveal your identity like this, I'm afraid Fu Xiuheng will be furious and even more determined not to let you go. Not to mention the Lin family."

Although the Fu Group has not responded so far, both of them know the truth.

Fu Xiuheng is adept at using others to do his dirty work. This time, he either borrowed Shen Pei'an's influence or used Shen Pei'an's people in his operation.

Lin Qingran could handle Fu Xiuheng's tricks, but Shen Pei'an's background was not clean to begin with, and she was afraid he would resort to desperate measures.

"Let's take it one step at a time," Lin Qingran said.

"They forced me to do it, I had no choice."

Just then, Wen Qingyu called.

"Sister Jiuge, I've found some new clues about Zhao Quanying." Wen Qingyu's voice was somewhat hurried.

Her usually composed tone changed, which made Lin Qingran sense something was wrong.

Lin Qingran's heart tightened. "What clue? Tell me quickly."

“Zhao Quanying’s wife died in childbirth, which does not seem to be an accident. I found some suspicious medical records that showed she was given an overdose of drugs during childbirth, and these drug usage records were deliberately altered.”

Lin Qingran's eyes turned cold. "It seems there's more to this than meets the eye. Continue your investigation and find out who's behind this."

“Okay, Sister Jiuge. But you should also be careful. I feel like someone is watching our every move.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Qingran fell into deep thought.

She knew she was getting closer to the truth, but at the same time, she was also falling into an even more dangerous situation.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the capital, Fu Rongrong was sitting in Fu Xiuheng's office, looking at him angrily.

"Big brother, why did you send people to attack Su Mian? She's a high-ranking leader in the Shanghai Group, you're showing her no respect at all!" Fu Rongrong questioned.

Fu Xiuheng frowned. "Rongrong, don't get involved in this. I have my reasons."

"Your reason? Your reason is to use any means necessary to achieve your goal?" Fu Rongrong said disappointedly.

Fu Xiuheng looked at Fu Rongrong, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes. "Rongrong, you don't understand. In this world, only the strong survive. If I don't do this, the Fu Group will be trampled underfoot by others."

"But you can't hurt innocent people!"

Sister Qingran has already suffered so much, why do you still have to do this!

Fu Rongrong's tears welled up in her eyes.

Unfortunately, Lin Qingran did not allow her to reveal her identity, and she could not tell Fu Xiuheng these things.

Fu Xiuheng was silent for a while, then said, "Rongrong, there are some things you don't understand. Business is complicated; it's not as simple as you imagine."

"Fine, since you're unwilling to talk about it, I won't ask anymore. I didn't come back this time to dwell on this. But brother, I already know that Jiang Jiuge is Sister Qingran. Let me tell you, if you continue to hurt Sister Qingran, I won't let you off the hook." After saying that, Fu Rongrong turned and left the office.

As Fu Xiuheng watched Fu Rongrong's departing figure, a strange sense of irritation welled up in his heart.

More and more people are learning about Lin Qingran's identity, but is she still not going to reveal it?

What exactly is she up to?

In the manor in Yuncheng, Lin Qingran sat in the study, carefully reviewing the information sent by Wen Qingyu about the death of Zhao Quanying's wife.

According to reports, the doctor and nurse who were in charge of Zhao Quanying's wife's delivery received a huge sum of hush money afterward and left the hospital without a trace.

"It seems someone is trying their best to cover up the truth of what happened back then," Lin Qingran muttered to herself.

At this moment, Bo Ye walked in and saw Lin Qingran's exhausted appearance, which made him feel very sorry for her.

"Sister, you should rest for a while. Leave these things to me," Bo Ye said.

Lin Qingran shook her head. "No, this matter is of great importance, and I must investigate it myself."

All the evidence points to Zhao Quanying, proving that the truth he learned at Lin Yuyan's birthday party was revealed by Zhao Quanying.

This person may be far more dangerous than you imagine.

Lin Qingran looked up at Bo Ye, her eyes filled with determination.

"I cannot let go of any clues that may be related to the truth. Only by thoroughly investigating everything can we truly take the initiative and stop being schemed against by those in the shadows."
