Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 887 - Chapter 887 Chapter 886 Suspicion

Chapter 887: Chapter 886: Suspicion Chapter 887: Chapter 886: Suspicion Lu Jin spent every day following Huo Beijiang, frequently coming and going from the large courtyard, and naturally, he also overheard some idle gossip. However, these were people of status, and when they spoke behind others’ backs, it was merely out of curiosity, guessing merely for the sake of it–no one really thought deeply into the matters.

It was only Huo Beijiang who would think so much. He was a natural schemer, the kind who involuntarily thought deeper than anyone else when faced with an issue.

Thus, the idle chit-chat of others seemed quite plausible to him. However, since it had nothing to do with him, being someone else’s private affair, he couldn’t be bothered.

Had he not happened to encounter it today, he wouldn’t have wasted his words!

Tang Qian was stunned, her grip on Huo Beijiang’s arm gradually loosening. She felt as though she had been struck by lightning, with pain searing through her every organ.

Scene by scene from the past surfaced in her mind, peculiar incidents she had noticed before but had paid no attention to began to emerge one by one.

She remembered before Wei An was born, her relationship with Wei Shufen was far from good; Shufen even looked down on her, always harboring hostility. Later… it was after the death of Shufen’s son right after his birth that struck her hard, and because of that, she was exceptionally kind to the newborn Wei An.

Wei Shufen would care for Wei An almost half of the twenty-four hours each day.

At the time, she felt incredibly sympathetic towards Shufen and was also very grateful for both her help and her affection for Wei An.

Over the years, Shufen’s devotion to Wei An was unquestionable, so much so that even she, as his biological mother, had nothing to say. At times, she often mentioned to Fang Yi about treating Dongxin well. Dongxin’s engagement to Huo Bei originated from this. Later, when Huo Beijiang forcibly broke off the engagement, it only added to her feelings of guilt.

Now looking back, Tang Qian felt that everything was amiss.

If Shufen despised her so much in the past, why would she be kind to her son after her own child died? Shufen had a daughter too! Even if she was a mother with no outlet for her maternal love, she could have devoted herself wholeheartedly to her daughter!

She was a mother too and questioned whether she could ever do such a thing– to mourn her own son’s death by fussing over the child of someone she detested.

And… Wei An indeed didn’t resemble their family. With Wei An’s physique, there had never been an overweight person in three generations of the Wei Family, and Fang Yi, even at fifty, was still lean.

On the contrary, the Lu Family had quite a few overweight members.

Tang Qian shivered, collapsing weakly to the ground, unable to stand back up.

Huo Beijiang entered the hospital and headed straight for the second floor. Ning Di saw Tang Qian’s reaction just now and incredulously said, “Instructor, do you think there really might be something fishy going on here?”

“Humph! Today I’ll teach you something. Never look at the surface of a problem; one must always maintain a skeptical attitude towards everything.”

Unable to help himself, Lu Jin said, “Big Brother, that’s not good, ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ calls it a suspicious nature…”

Huo Beijiang gave him a cold glare, scaring Lu Jin into swallowing the rest of his words.

“Big Brother, should we investigate?” Ning Di volunteered.

Huo Beijiang pursed his lips, pausing before he said, “You go check it out! Consider it avenging my brother-in-law and my wife.” He genuinely despised the Wei Family and Lu Family, but the enemy of his enemy was his friend.

Wei Shufen and Lu Dongxin thought they were fooling everyone without detection–they were utterly wrong.

He was a man who held grudges and ensured they were avenged.

The letter Wei Shufen wrote to his mother was still in his possession!

“Start investigating immediately; I want the results as soon as possible.”
