NOVEL NEXT Chapter 72: So That's How It Is
"Since you already know, why do you still ask me?"
Wang Ye was actually very clear in his heart that Fang Feifei definitely knew what he had said to Fang Cunshan.
After all, there was so little concerning the Fang Family that one could guess it.
"Then I ask you, what do you plan to do? Being involved in the internal strife of the Fang Family is a very dangerous thing. No matter what you do, the outcome might not be good," Fang Feifei seriously asked.
Although she was using Wang Ye for her own purposes, she would not let him suffer too severe consequences.
But Fang Cunshan was different; the tasks he assigned to Wang Ye were too dangerous.
However, Wang Ye's response was very calm, "It's fine, as long as I can obtain what I want. Everything else is the Fang Family's own business."
For Wang Ye, helping Fang Cunshan investigate the truth was merely doing something just.
If Fang Junxiang really had poisoned Fang Cunshan, then he would be unfilial. Punishing such a person was only right. Wang Ye himself would have no regrets.
As for whether anyone would seek revenge, Wang Ye would not mind. Because he knew he had enough strength to cope.
"Good, I hope you ultimately get what you desire," Fang Feifei no longer said much.
Since Wang Ye had already reached a cooperation agreement with Fang Cunshan, it was too late now to make him change his mind.
"Hmm, by the way, I wanted to ask you a few questions too," Wang Ye turned his head and looked at Fang Feifei.
Since he had already decided to get involved in the internal struggles of the Fang Family, naturally he needed to understand more about the Fang Family.
"Ask away, I'll answer what I know," Fang Feifei promised.
"The Fang Family has many descendants. The first time I entered the Fang Family, I saw that. So I don't understand, as the granddaughter, why you would be the first choice for the inheritance?" Wang Ye asked.
Logically, Fang Junxiang was the most direct heir. Even if Fang Cunshan didn't like Fang Junxiang, it should have been passed to Fang Junxiang's child. How could it jump so far directly to Fang Feifei?
After hearing this, Fang Feifei did not hide anything and directly answered, "Because Fang Junxiang is my grandfather's illegitimate son."
"Illegitimate son? Then I understand," Wang Ye, who had only learned this bit of information, could reason it out.
Since Fang Junxiang was not the child of Fang Cunshan's legitimate wife, his status in the Fang Family wasn't high. As for his children, their status was even lower. Therefore, if the inheritance rights fell to him, the Fang Family would definitely face much dissent.
Fang Feifei's father must have been the child of Fang Cunshan's legitimate wife. However, presumably Fang Feifei's father had already passed away. Thus, the first choice for inheritor naturally fell to Fang Feifei.
"You understand what from just that? I only mentioned that, and you understood everything?" Fang Feifei asked.
Wang Ye slightly smiled, "Knowing this, is enough! Many unreasonable aspects, once you explain it like this, all become reasonable."
"Huh, Wang Ye, things aren't as simple as you think. So if you have anything else you want to ask, ask them all at once! Otherwise, I won't give you a chance to ask again," Fang Feifei said sternly.
After all, discussing these family matters was a part she was reluctant to mention. If Wang Ye frequently asked about them, she would definitely not want to answer.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Ye continued, "Then your parents? And what about Fang Junxiang's children, what is their status?"
"My parents disappeared when I was fifteen years old! Although my grandfather always tried to investigate, he never heard any news. That's why later I went to study abroad. After all, it was dangerous without my parents. As for Fang Junxiang, his children are now all overseas. The Fang Family People don't think much of them," Fang Feifei answered.
Wang Ye could clearly see a trace of sadness on Fang Feifei's face as she answered this question.
Those past events, she definitely was reluctant to mention.
Wang Ye didn't proceed with more questions, knowing this much was already enough.
"Good, that's all I wanted to ask! I won't ask you in the future," Wang Ye seriously said.
"Tch, I say something and you just do it? I say don't ask, and you won't ask?" Fang Feifei looked at Wang Ye somewhat speechlessly.
Actually, she said it more because she was unwilling to mention the past, not that it couldn't be brought up at all.
"A thing you are unwilling to do, I certainly won't force you to do it!"
Upon hearing Wang Ye's reply, Fang Feifei's lips unconsciously curved upwards.
Unexpectedly, Wang Ye was still such a considerate person.
...
On the other hand, after Fang Junxiang left the Fang Family villa, he went to find Liu Yuntuo.
Seeing Wang Ye at the Fang Family made Fang Junxiang feel threatened. He knew his affairs might soon be exposed. Therefore, he urgently sought Liu Yuntuo to discuss it.
"Master Liu, the current situation is very bad! It seems Wang Ye and the old man have already reached cooperation," Fang Junxiang said with an anxious expression.
But Liu Yuntuo was very calm, "So what? Is the poison I arranged for people to make easily detectable?"
"You're right, but I still feel it's dangerous! Wang Ye is no ordinary man, his medical skills are said to be very superb," Fang Junxiang was still worried.
"Superb? How superb can it be? Just a young man, and you're scared like this?" Liu Yuntuo still did not regard Wang Ye highly.
This made Fang Junxiang somewhat upset, "Master Liu, don't forget, haven't you suffered a loss at the hands of Wang Ye as well? That fifteen billion worth of stone, didn't you buy it?"
In Fang Junxiang's view, at least in the field of appraising treasures, Liu Yuntuo was inferior to Wang Ye. Otherwise, Liu Yuntuo wouldn't have lost fifteen billion.
"Shut up! Fang Junxiang, have you grown bolder? Have you forgotten how you came back to the Fang Family, and how you secured a position there?" Liu Yuntuo looked at Fang Junxiang with cold eyes.
Fang Junxiang dared to bring up Liu Yuntuo's humiliating past, which definitely angered Liu Yuntuo.
"This... I'm sorry, Master Liu, I misspoke," Fang Junxiang could only apologize.
Now, he could only be dominated by Liu Yuntuo, unable to resist.
After all, everything depended on Liu Yuntuo and the force behind him.
"Hmph, Fang Junxiang, you better behave yourself! Keep your place. Otherwise, bear the consequences yourself," Liu Yuntuo said coldly.
"Yes, I understand! Don't worry, Master Liu, I won't dare from now on! But currently, we really need to think of a way to deal with this situation!"
