Chapter 717: Chapter 717: Letter from Wu Qiyi_1

Under the gaze of everyone, the glass case containing Grandma Meng Soup began to distort, the space around it twisting like a spiral, as if an A4 white sheet were quickly crumpled into a ball, and then that ball disappeared into thin air.

Xiao Feng looked on enviously and praised, "Watching you use the Sen Luo Eye, it feels like magic every time. I feel like the distance between us is growing farther and farther."

Hearing that, Hu Meili rolled her eyes and said carelessly, "That’s because you’re lazy! A person’s strength is definitely proportional to their experiences. Unlike you guys, who are now lazy enough to breed lice!"

Nie Ying actually agreed with Hu Meili’s remark, "Mei Li is right. Recently, our Detective Agency has been getting less and less enthusiastic about taking cases. When we call, this one’s busy, that one wants leave; if this goes on, we might as well disband."

Zong Wangyue’s skin was thick, and facing the pointed comments from the two women, he still smiled cheerily and said, "There’s no helping it, everyone is newly married and in love, needing that honeymoon period."

"Hmph!"

The several women in the society were rather disgusted by the fact that Zong Wangyue had two wives at the same time.

"Alright, let’s call it a day for this morning’s meeting."

As you stood up, you noticed an additional familiar figure at the door, and your brows inadvertently furrowed when you saw her: "Why are you here?"

Before the newcomer spoke, a charming person stood out from behind her.

"Brother."

Little Qinniang called out crisply, and with a smile on her face, she walked up to you, took your hand, and said, "It’s been several days since I last saw Brother. Why won’t you and Sister Zhao’er come home?"

You were pleased at the arrival of your sister. Though there was no blood relation between the two of you, from her, you could feel a strong sense of family affection.

Affectionately, you reached out to stroke her head and asked with a gentle smile, "Don’t you have school today?"

"School is so boring; the things the teachers teach are so dull. So, Xi Yan and I sneaked out."

As she spoke, Little Qinniang gestured to Xi Yan, who stood beside Xi Yu. A junior high school girl with a smile as radiant as the May sun came forward and curtseyed slightly, "Hello, Brother Li."

"Brother, Xi Yan and I are now sisters, so she can call you Brother from now on too, right?"

"Yes, of course she can."

"Yay!"

Although Little Qinniang was highly intelligent, she was still a child, possessing the innocence and romanticism expected of a girl her age.

Nie Ying and the other ladies quickly hit it off with the two younger sisters, and soon Guihua Cafe was filled with the sound of their bell-like laughter and cheer.

Xi Yu approached you with measured steps, her expression calm, took a document out of her briefcase, and handed it to you: "Miss asked me to give this to you."

You took the parchment document, and in front of Xi Yu, you opened it.

Inside was a letter, a handwritten letter from Wu Qiyi; seeing the intact red seal on the envelope made you slightly frown.

Knowing Wu Qiyi as you do, if there was an issue, she would certainly call you first. However, now she had chosen this ancient but extremely secure method, which made you feel more or less a bad premonition.

You opened the envelope and took out a piece of fragrant stationery, with rows of delicate handwriting catching your eyes.

The contents of the letter were not long, and you quickly finished reading. Your expression changed from an initial frown to a cold smile towards the end.

In the letter, Wu Qiyi mentioned two Aristocratic families, the Cen Family and the Liu Family...

Three days ago, at the ancestral house of Liu in Yenjing.

A woman dressed in opulent clothing, with a beautiful face, knelt on the bluestone slabs outside a courtyard gate, her complexion sorrowful and tears still glistening at the corners of her eyes.

Behind the woman stood two people, a man and a woman. The man was He Zhenqi, and the woman had a cold expression, with a chilling light flickering in her eyes.

"Mother, Little White is your legitimate grandson! He has been by your side since he was little, and you should know his character best!"

The woman had already been kneeling for at least half an hour, but the wooden gate of the courtyard, which was at least three hundred years old, still showed no sign of opening.

At this time, the cold-faced woman behind her took out a mobile phone from her clothes, answered a call, and after she hung up, her expression was even colder than before!

The woman approached and whispered to her, "Madam, the old lady has sent someone to obtain the master’s sperm."

Upon hearing this, the woman shuddered, her face a picture of disbelief.

She couldn’t comprehend it, no matter how hard she racked her brains!

However, hearing this, the woman knew very well that there was no longer any need for her to continue kneeling. She stood up fiercely, with a malevolent expression, and spat a thick glob of phlegm at the ancient wooden door, fierce light flashing in her eyes.

"What nonsense about ’millennia-old aristocratic families’, each and every one a bunch of turtles with their heads retracted! Spineless cowards without the balls!" The woman deliberately raised her voice so that everyone within and outside of the walls could hear, "Back when Li Kangge stole Liu Jingfeng’s fiancée, you so-called number one scion of China not only failed to give chase, but you also cowardly shrank back for twenty years! And now, even better, the legitimate grandson being beaten into a vegetative state by the son of Li Kangge, the entire family, young and old, not a single person stands up! Fine, very good! If you won’t do it, I will! I will avenge my son’s grudge myself!"

With that, the woman turned swiftly and strode away resolutely.

Once the woman’s footsteps had faded, the centuries-old wooden door finally creaked open, and an old lady with a head of white hair, supported by a maid, walked slowly out with the aid of a cane.

Shortly after, a ripple formed in the air, and a handsome man dressed in white suddenly appeared, standing tall and proud like a treasured sword.

"Mother."

The handsome man bowed respectfully to the old lady.

"Jingfeng, tell me, was I really wrong?"

The handsome man’s expression remained unchanged. He glanced at the old lady with his sharp eyes and responded, "Speaking of the family’s rise and fall, Mother did nothing wrong. However, Little White is the son of Big Brother and your legitimate grandson, your actions..."

"That’s enough, no more words," the old lady waved her hand, watching her son, whom she had always been proud of, past and present, and said softly, "Jingfeng, it has been so many years since then, why can’t you let go?"

Liu Jingfeng maintained his indifferent composure and spoke respectfully to the old lady, "Mother, besides Little White, Big Brother has two illegitimate sons outside. Both of them have good characters, and the legitimate bloodline of our Liu family will not end with me."

"It’s your heart I worry about, along with that silly girl from the Zhang family. She’s waited for you for twenty years. Why can you not put aside Xiao Ying and seek out your true life?"

It was clear that every parent’s heart is filled with love, as tears started glistening in the old lady’s eyes.

Only then did Liu Jingfeng sigh softly and bow to the old lady, "Mother, I have come this time for this matter."

"Oh?" The old lady blinked, then said with a gleeful expression, "You’ve come around?"

After taking a deep, prolonged breath, Liu Jingfeng finally spoke the words that had been repressed in his heart for years, "I want to go to Yuhang."

"You wicked child! Are you trying to anger me to death on purpose?"

Seeing the old lady’s anger, Liu Jingfeng’s demeanor became even more resolute, "Mother, I am going this time to make an end of it all!"
