Chapter 391: Handling
Qi Xingfeng pursed his lips uncomfortably. “I’ll control myself.”
Qi Xingzhi smiled and said, “I believe you.”
Qi Xingfeng nodded and strode away.
Qi Xingzhi smiled helplessly and shook his head. Then, he slowly went home.
At this moment, in the Sun residence.
Yan Qingyun frowned and looked at Qi Xinyue, who was beside him. “Madam, did you have any evidence against her back then? Is it true that she can’t come back?”
Qi Xinyue was stunned and puzzled. “What is it? I don’t know what you’re talking about, did they say something just now?”
Qi Xinyue still didn’t know what had just happened. She had just gone out for a while and instructed the kitchen to make some food for Qi Xingfeng. When she came back, Qi Xingfeng and Qi Xingzhi had already gone back.
As for Yan Qingyun, his expression was a little gloomy. They had been husband and wife for 40 years. Qi Xinyue knew that something must have made Yan Qingyun unhappy.
When Yan Qingyun asked her, she really didn’t know what he was talking about.
“It’s about Yan Mian.”
Seeing that his wife didn’t even remember, Yan Qingyun made it clear so that Qi Xinyue wouldn’t talk about other things.
There were inevitably a few shady things in the family. Qi Xinyue was not a magnanimous person, but as long as she did it cleanly, he would let her be.
Every minister was like this.
“That incident definitely did not leave any evidence behind. Did Master hear something?”
Qi Xinyue’s expression changed. Then, she told Yan Qingyun affirmatively that it had been more than 20 years. She knew very well how ruthless she was back then. Yan Mian would never return to the capital.
Although she didn’t take her life, she definitely wouldn’t be able to return to the capital. With Yan Mian’s personality, if she fell into a place like the brothel, she wouldn’t be able to survive.
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xinyue and said irritably, “Just now, those two brats said that they found Yan Mian and asked me to go over for a blood test. You have to know that after so many years, the Qi family has never given up on looking for her. However, this is the first time they asked me to cooperate and do a blood test.”
The Qi family was impatient. Qi Xingzhi was smart, but he couldn’t control everyone in the Qi family.
After so many years of searching, there would definitely be a few who looked similar to Yan Mian. However, none of them had a blood test. This showed how strict the Qi family was about this matter.
This time, judging from Qi Xingfeng’s emotions, he could not wait to bring her home immediately. This meant that the blood test was dispensable. They were certain that the person they found was Yan Mian. That was why Qi Xingfeng was so sure. That was why Qi Xingfeng was so angry when he said that he wanted to investigate.
Qi Xinyue’s expression also changed. She looked at Yan Qingyun and lowered her eyes. “Master, with the savagery of those people, it’s impossible for Yan Mian to return.”
Qi Xinyue was still certain that she wouldn’t make a mistake. None of those people were good people. How could Yan Mian return to the capital alive after falling into their hands?
Seeing how confident Qi Xinyue was, Yan Qingyun frowned and said, “You didn’t see her die with your own eyes either. What you’re sure of is just your guess.”
“But they’re a bunch of bandits who don’t care about others’ lives. It’s impossible for her to stay out of trouble after falling into their hands.”
A trace of viciousness flashed past Qi Xinyue’s eyes. She did not hold back at all. Logically speaking, Yan Mian would not be able to come back.
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xinyue’s vicious old face and said coldly, “But have you forgotten that the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry? The heavens have their will. If you don’t see it with your own eyes, you won’t be able to control even a fraction of the will of heaven.”
The capable Qi brothers were so confident. It was definitely not that simple. General Qi’s health was not good, so the two brothers would not use such a big matter to mess around.
Thus, the Yan Mian that Qi Xingfeng and Qi Xingzhi found was most likely real.
Yan Qingyun’s words made Qi Xinyue speechless. She lowered her head and softened her tone. “Master, I didn’t do well and caused trouble for you.”
Even though she was unwilling, she knew that Yan Qingyun was right.
As long as she didn’t see Yan Mian die with her own eyes, that bit of heaven’s will wasn’t something she could control.
God wanted Yan Mian to live so after more than 20 years, Yan Mian still came back alive.
Qi Xinyue’s tone softened as she asked, “Master, I can’t figure out how she came back. What did Xingzhi and Xingfeng say?”
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xinyue, who didn’t want to give up, and said calmly, “I didn’t ask about that. I’m not in the mood to know. You have three days to deal with them. This time, I hope you can deal with them cleanly. If you don’t handle it well and something happens, I won’t be able to protect you.”
He didn’t care how Yan Mian survived and returned.
Back then, he was indeed furious, but since it had already happened, there was no point in blaming Qi Xinyue.
Qi Xinyue was the mother of his son and daughter. If this matter was put on the table, the Qi family would deal with Qi Xinyue, and he would also be dealt with. Hence, he had helped Qi Xinyue hide it back then.
It was the same now. This matter could not affect him. Qi Xingzhi and Qi Xingfeng were young and easy to fool. With these three days, it was enough for Qi Xinyue to deal with them.
“Yes, I understand.”
Qi Xinyue bowed and said that she knew what Yan Qingyun meant.
“You’d better investigate thoroughly first, lest anything happens again. They’re already in the capital. If you don’t handle it well, you’ll have to bear the wrath of the Qi family alone. You know my bottom line. Of course, we’ve been husband and wife for many years. I’ll protect you in secret, but I might not be able to ensure your safety.”
Yan Qingyun made things clear and told Qi Xinyue the address of the Su family’s residence. He was also telling Qi Xinyue that she only had one chance. She had to hit it with one shot and nothing must go wrong.
Yan Mian was Qi Xinyu’s only daughter. Qi Xinyu was also General Qi’s only daughter. Yan Qingyun knew very well how much General Qi doted on Qi Xinyu. After Qi Xinyu died, this love landed on Yan Mian.
If General Qi knew that Yan Mian’s disappearance was caused by Qi Xinyue’s jealousy, he would probably want to cut Qi Xinyue into pieces. Based on the hardships that Yan Mian had suffered for the past 24 years, General Qi would definitely not let Qi Xinyue off after finding out.
On account of their relationship as husband and wife, he had fought for three days for Qi Xinyue. He had let Qi Xinyue down by giving her this chance.
“Thank you, Master. I still have something on, so I’ll take my leave first.”
Qi Xinyue bowed, then turned around and left. At this moment, she was not in the mood to care about how ruthless Yan Qingyun was to her. She had to deal with this huge trouble that had suddenly appeared.
She didn’t care how Yan Mian returned to the capital alive. She only knew that Yan Mian couldn’t come back. Yan Mian had to die. Only then would she, Qi Xinyue, have a good life.
