He De had been in charge of the He family for more than twenty years, and had always held the power. Under the concentration of power, there were many loyal clansmen who followed him, which allowed the He family to have its current glory.

Ling An really wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death. If he really wanted to, he could make that little brat Crane Lin directly take away his position. Not even with Zhao Huaxing's help.

Seeing Ling An's indignant look, he stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder, gently consoling her, "Xiao An, don't be angry, don't be angry. I'm so old, I can't possibly be so angry that I can't sleep every day just because they chased me down, right?"

Ling An just frowned and said, "Then why did you give your seat to Xiao Lin so easily? "What if he puts the Crane Family in danger?"

Seeing that he could not console her, He De's face became serious and he said solemnly: "Little An, it seems that I have to tell you now. Actually, I only let them succeed so easily because I believe that Xiao Lin will not act too recklessly."

Ling An was puzzled and then happy. Could it be … Brother, did you prepare this beforehand?

"Actually, all this time I had been thinking about whether or not I should let Xiao Lin temporarily take over the position of Patriarch and use it to cultivate his future abilities. Moreover, I have been hesitating on whether or not I should do so … However, I didn't expect him to be so rebellious as to directly join forces with outsiders to snatch that position.

But don't worry, Little An, everything is still in my hands … I have been the head of the family for so many years, and have a large number of loyal subordinates. Furthermore, he has just taken up his position, so his foundation is not sufficient, and he will not be able to shake me off within two or three years at the very least.

"Actually, the reason why I gave up the seat so easily was because I wanted to see what he wanted to do so that I could keep watch over him. So, let's just wait and see …" What purpose does he have? As time passes, some clues will be revealed. "

After listening to his words, Ling An's worried heart finally relaxed a little.

Previously, she didn't believe that her elder brother would be driven off the stage so easily. Now, it seemed that her elder brother had already made his preparations.

He De smiled, stood up and patted her shoulder again. "Go back, it's nothing much. I will keep watch over him."

Ling An nodded and turned to leave.

However, she wouldn't just let He Lin do what he wanted. In the future, she would pay close attention to his every movement.

As soon as she returned home, she received a call from Dong Xiaoxiao.

Dong Xiaoxiao told how Lin went to her house and Ling An frowned.

She wasn't surprised that Crane Forest went to find Dong Xiaoxiao, but she personally went to see her parents … This was really strange.

However, she didn't have any other choice. She could only comfort Dong Xiaoxiao and ask her to keep an eye on him until she detected any abnormalities.

Dong Xiaoxiao hung up the phone helplessly. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss. She immediately called Vincent and asked for a leave of absence before getting into her car.

She wanted to go back in person and ask, to see what the Crane Lin had said to her mother.

It was almost evening by the time Dong Xiaoxiao arrived home. Even Dong Fang's parents were there.

Mother Dong was surprised that she suddenly returned home. She even teased her on whether she came back so soon due to some exposure. Father Dong also asked her what had happened between her and the Crane Forest.

However, Dong Xiaoxiao's mood was heavy. She couldn't wait to ask a few questions about the circumstances of her visit.

Mother Dong's memory seemed to have regressed, but the Crane Forest attracted a lot of her interest. She still remembered most of the conversations, but most of them were irrelevant and chatty. Dong Xiaoxiao wasn't able to get any useful information from them.

But the Crane Forest had already become the head of the He family, what was the point of coming over to chat with her mother? This was too contradictory!

There must be something strange going on, which was why she was in such a hurry to go home and take a look.

A wise son should not be like a mother. Mother Dong was sensitive enough to notice Dong Xiaoxiao's worry and sighed, "Oh, Xiaoxiao, what do you have to tell us? Why are you always hiding things from us? I think that young man Crane is fine, and don't worry about it, though we don't know what you're worried about. "

Father Dong also chimed in, "Even if that brat has evil intentions, as long as he's in our village, he won't be able to cause any trouble. After all, your father is very popular.

Dong Xiaoxiao agreed after thinking about it for a while. However, the faint fear in her heart persisted, causing her to feel uneasy.

In the end, nothing happened. He could only wait and see.

Dong Xiaoxiao only stayed at home for one day before returning to the city.

As expected, after his first visit to Dong Xiaoxiao's parents' home, the Crane Forest went as he had promised and came once a week.

Dong Xiaoxiao's parents were happy and vigilant.

However, they had been in contact with the Crane Forest for a long time. They felt that this was a very good and rich young man. Even if he was nice to them, they would definitely take some supplements or something.

And like this, after a long time, they didn't think there was anything wrong with the Crane Forest. They even tried to persuade Dong Xiaoxiao to consider this young man.

Dong Xiaoxiao could only smile wryly. She made it clear that it was impossible for her to be together with Crane Forest, so her parents were still on their guard.

However, even though they agreed to it on the surface, since the Crane Forest had come, they were still very happy. Their vigilance towards him had almost disappeared.

Dong Xiaoxiao was worried. She went home more frequently than before, but she never found anything unusual.

Recently, the investigation into the Ye Group's activities had been completely hidden in the shadows. Dong Xiaoxiao and Le Xiao Tang Shirley had barely seen each other anymore. They had contacted each other over the phone whenever they needed to.

Because Ye Yuandao had been monitoring them, whatever they did would attract a blow from Ye Yuandao. Therefore, the investigation had almost come to a standstill.

Dong Xiaoxiao didn't have to worry about Ye Hanyi anymore. However, since the last time, Ye Hanyi rarely came out, and she could clearly feel his soul power weakening. Therefore, she couldn't help but worry if he would never wake up again …

However, there was nothing she could do about it. She could only call out to Ye Hanyi from time to time and casually chat with him.

However, she could clearly feel that the number of times she called out to Ye Hanyi increased. However, he might not be able to wake up and talk to her every time.
