NOVEL NEXT Chapter 94 Parental Origins
"This is clearly the opponent's second move, which means, after knowing the plan had failed, they immediately implemented another plan."
"They have been observing us all this time."
"And the best place to observe us is..."
Wang Ye's gaze shifted to the second floor opposite the Fang Family Jewelry Store, completing the unspoken two words: "there!"
In an instant,
Wang Ye's gaze met those of Liu Yuntuo and Fang Junxiang.
In Wang Ye's eyes, there was coldness, devoid of any emotion, just a faint murderous intent.
Seeing that their actions were exposed, Liu Yuntuo and Fang Junxiang, already guilty and wanting to leave, looked back subconsciously, meeting Wang Ye's chilling gaze.
In that moment, their souls shuddered.
They even felt that what they had just faced was not a human gaze, but that of the Ghost King, come from the eighteenth layer of hell to claim their lives.
Whoosh!
Wang Ye moved incredibly fast.
The moment he pinpointed the direction where Fang Junxiang and his companion were, Wang Ye instantly headed toward the building across from the Fang Family Jewelry Store.
"Go!"
Seeing Wang Ye coming in their direction, Liu Yuntuo and Fang Junxiang tried to flee.
But Wang Ye was much faster than they had anticipated.
The moment Wang Ye reached outside the Fang Family Jewelry Store, his body leaped to an unimaginably high level, landing on the window ledge of the building opposite and directly entering the second floor.
Meanwhile, Liu Yuntuo and Fang Junxiang had only just managed to get up.
"Liu Yuntuo."
Wang Ye, seeing Liu Yuntuo next to Fang Junxiang, realized that the disconnected clues he had now completely connected.
The person who had poisoned was Fang Junxiang, and it was Liu Yuntuo who had provided him with the poison.
When Liu Yuntuo had gone to the Fang Family Jewelry Store, he had demanded compensation for the lost Imperial Green, specifically to cause trouble for Fang Feifei.
Fang Junxiang was very familiar with the Fang family's anti-counterfeiting mark, but it was also Liu Yuntuo who had helped him create an identical fake.
"What a coincidence, Master Liu, Boss Fang."
Wang Ye greeted Liu Yuntuo and Fang Junxiang, who, upon seeing Wang Ye greeting them, had complex expressions on their faces.
Shock, anger, fear…
Fang Feifei directly drove, bringing Fang Junxiang and Liu Yuntuo together to the Fang Family to confront them in front of Fang Cunshan.
With the evidence that Steward Liu had been collecting all along, and Wang Ye apprehending Liu Yuntuo, with both witness and physical evidence present, there was no way for Fang Junxiang to deny the accusations.
Fang Junxiang was expelled from the Fang Family, and Liu Yuntuo was taken away by Steward Liu's people to the authorities. This affair of the Fang Family was thus resolved.
"Old Mr. Fang."
Wang Ye focused his attention on Fang Cunshan and spoke up: "Now that I have unraveled the affairs of the Fang Family, it's time for you to fulfill the promise you made earlier."
Fang Cunshan had once said that if Wang Ye could help find the traitor in the Fang Family within seven days, he would share some crucial information with him.
"Steward Liu."
Fang Cunshan gestured slightly, and Steward Liu, understanding Fang Cunshan's intent, led everyone out of the room, leaving only Fang Cunshan and Wang Ye.
Even Fang Feifei was taken out.
Fang Cunshan sipped his tea, "Your father started from scratch."
"Really? That impressive?"
Surprised by Fang Cunshan's words, Wang Ye knew starting from scratch was difficult, yet his own father managed to do so, which seemed even more formidable than his sister's accomplishments.
At the same time, Wang Ye's anticipation for the information to come grew even stronger.
Since Fang Cunshan said as much, it implied that Fang Cunshan definitely knew the names of his parents.
From childhood till now, Wang Ye didn't even know the names of his parents.
"Although he started from scratch, it wouldn't have been possible without your mother's help," Fang Cunshan continued.
"My mother?"
Wang Ye voiced his confusion, as he was not very familiar with his parents' backgrounds.
"Yes."
"Your mother was the daughter of a major family in the provincial capital, the Zhao family, Zhao Ke," Fang Cunshan said, his face reflecting a nostalgic expression. "Back then, although your father started from scratch, he also leveraged many of your mother's family connections, which greatly accelerated his career progress."
"Later, when the Zhao family found out, the then family head of the Zhao family saw that your father was indeed a talent worth molding, and instead of causing difficulties, they helped him a lot afterward. In fact, when your Wang family was targeted by other families in the province, the Zhao family supported your father and his endeavors."
"However, where there's support, there's opposition. Your Zhao family split into two factions, and eventually, those in the Zhao family who chose not to support teamed up with other families in the province to eliminate the supporting faction."
"The faction of the Zhao family that survives today is the one that didn't support the Wang family. You might get some information by going to the Zhao family, but it's not certain whether they will tell you anything."
"I understand."
Wang Ye nodded. Hearing this news didn't bring him joy but caused him to frown slightly.
Since the surviving members of the Zhao family didn't support his father, if he were to go to the Zhao family, those people would certainly not be welcoming, let alone share any information they knew with him.
This was not something to expect.
However, Wang Ye believed that with his efforts going forward, he would definitely be able to extract information from them.
"Thank you, Patriarch Fang," he said.
Wang Ye thanked Fang Cunshan, who hadn't seemed to say much yet had provided a significant clue, revealing another means of gathering information besides marrying Su Wanqing.
"You're welcome."
Fang Cunshan waved his hand, "We're in cooperation. Since you fulfilled the requirement I set for you, it's only fair to tell you these things."
"Oh, right."
Fang Cunshan fixed his gaze on Wang Ye, continuing, "Besides this clue, I have another one to tell you."
"What is it?"
Upon hearing Fang Cunshan's words, Wang Ye's expression instantly became excited. Could it be another clue about the Wang family?
"While Yang Junsheng was alive, he had gathered more than a hundred people with He Lei, aiming to deal with you. Although Yang Junsheng has died, He Lei might still make use of those two hundred plus people."
"So, you need to be careful in the days ahead."
"Yes!" Wang Ye's eyes instantly turned icy as he nodded slightly to Fang Cunshan, "Thank you, Patriarch Fang, for the information."
After talking a bit more with Fang Cunshan, Wang Ye left the room.
After Wang Ye left, Fang Cunshan watched the door through which Wang Ye had exited, lost in thought.
What were Wang Ye's methods?
