Chapter 1568 Someone Wants To Invest In The Kang Family

Qin An replied, "Yes, I've always suspected that the person who first met He Weinian was Kang Qingzhi. However, it was Kang Jichuan who came forward to negotiate. Kang Qingzhi was manipulating things behind Kang Jichuan's back, arranging for the two of them to meet. That's how the blood transfusion happened."

Gu Zheng paused. He Weinian was the mastermind behind all of this? The person who caused Xi Xi to almost lose her life five years ago was He Weinian.

He had always thought that He Weinian's target was him. Now, it seemed that He Weinian's target had always been Xi Xi, or rather, Xi Xi's blood.

Qiao Xi's face was filled with doubt. "I've checked He Weinian's information. He used to live in the capital. After he came to Li City and married his first wife, he gradually made a name for himself. I don't have any contact with him. How could he…"

Her voice suddenly stopped, and the air seemed to freeze.

Qin An followed Qiao Xi's words as a guess appeared in his mind. He instantly felt his scalp tingle. "Then there's only one possibility. There's someone behind He Weinian!"

Qiao Xi suddenly found it difficult to breathe. It was as if a huge net had trapped her. There was a mysterious person who was pulling many strings and controlling others to achieve their goal. The people involved had complicated relationships, and everyone had ill intentions. She and Gu Zheng were prey in this net. They had to face the risk of being schemed against.

She had never offended anyone in the past. Why was she being targeted by so many people?

If the Yin family had offended someone, there was no need for those people to scheme against her. They should just look for the descendants of the Yin family to take revenge. Her mother had a gentle temperament since she was young and was kind-hearted. She never became enemies with others. Who would want to take revenge on her?

According to Third Brother's clues, the forces behind them all belonged to the capital. However, she grew up in Li City while her mother grew up in Shengdu. She had nothing to do with the capital.

Qiao Xi felt a little dizzy and could not think of any clues, so she said, "Third Brother, you haven't eaten yet, right? I'll get the kitchen to prepare a meal."

Qin An nodded. Qiao Xi looked up at Gu Zheng and realized that he was frowning.

Was Gu Zheng hiding something from her?

…

In the afternoon, when Xiao Lan went out to buy ingredients for dinner, she happened to meet the servants and butlers of the nearby villa. As Xiao Lan was a servant of Longwan Residential, her status was higher than the other servants. Coupled with her age and sweet mouth, everyone liked to chat with her.

While the few of them were talking, Xiao Lan unintentionally mentioned something about Kang Qingzhi.

"Miss Kang Qingzhi is pretending to be sick, but Kang Jichuan wanted to force our young madam to apologize. Because Miss Kang failed to frame her and our young madam proved her innocence, Miss Kang is unconvinced and even making things difficult for our young madam.

"She's clearly the one who framed others, yet she still wants the victim to apologize to her. The daughter of the Kang family is too unreasonable. This young master of the Kang family is also muddle-headed. He actually came to our door and wanted to take Young Madam away by force.

"The people who are working with the Kang family need to widen their eyes, or they'll be schemed against by the Kang family. People like them are too selfish. They only care about benefits. Their business partners will definitely suffer."

This news quickly spread throughout Li City's high society.

On the other hand, after Kang Jichuan left Longwan Residential, he received a call from the company and left in a hurry. The headquarters of the Kang family's company had always been in Li City. After Kang Jichuan took over, the company was still stable.

However, they had invested four billion yuan in the perfume business this time. After that scandal broke out, investors and partners all proposed to terminate their contracts. Netizens also began to boycott the Kang family's perfumes. They had already suffered heavy losses during this period of time.

On the way, Kang Jichuan's phone rang again. His assistant's excited voice came from the other end of the phone. "Young Master, come over quickly. Someone wants to invest in our company!"

Kang Jichuan was a little surprised. Who would invest in the Kang family at this time?

He did not dare to delay and hurriedly urged the chauffeur to rush to the company.

Ever since the video taken at the perfume competition was posted online, the investors had all withdrawn their investments. Back then, the Kang family had invested four billion yuan in perfumes. It was all their money. They were very determined to withdraw it now.

Before they could recover from the previous incident, that incident happened again when Qingzhi attended the Gu family's banquet.

Kang Jichuan was full of sorrow and did not know how to clean up this mess. Hence, when his assistant said that someone wanted to invest in the Kang family, Kang Jichuan was very excited and immediately went to the company.
