Chapter 431: Who is the Culprit? (I)

The Jade Hotel-

” Here is your room, Sir.” The waitress escorted Jiang Hanying to the Presidential Suite of the hotel that was on the top floor and left after handing him the card to enter the room.

Grandfather Jiang took a deep breath before unlocking the door with the card key and entering the room.

As soon as he entered the room, his eyes fell on the man who was standing in front of the wall-sized windows in the room and was looking outside with his hands tucked in his pants pockets.

Upon hearing the sound of the door unlocking, Han Ziha turned around and greeted him, ” Mr. Jiang, You’re here.”

Seeing Grandfather Jiang looking around carefully, Han Zihao approached him in large strides and said, ” You don’t need to worry. This place is hundred percent secure.”

” No one will come here. This whole floor belongs to me. It’s a highly confidential area.” Han Zihao assured him.

.....

Grandfather Jiang cleared his throat and understood the meaning of his words. If he can use the Presidential Suite on the top floor of the building of Jade Hotel, which is sealed off from the public, then his identity must be special.

Han Corporations is at the top tier of the business world. There’s no doubt that he owns the Jade Hotel. Otherwise, why would he get the privilege to use this special top-floor presidential room of the hotel?

” Please sit down. I believe there are so many things that we need to talk about.” Han Zihao said as he gestured to him to take a seat on the sofa next to him.

While Grandfather Jiang took his seat, Han Zihao prepared a cup of Green tea for him and handed it to him. ” Mr. Jiang, are you now willing to tell me the reason why you sent me the anonymous letter the other day?”

” Or should I say, what do you know about the accident of Jiang Yue that led to that...unfortunate incident?” Han Zihao asked.

Grandfather pursed his lips in a thin line as he could feel a heavy boulder on his heart, suffocating him from inside. Is he finally ready to let go of that boulder off his heart?

**

” As I said earlier, I sent the letter to you because I know that other than me, only you can protect Jiang Yue, or should I call her Xu Nuan now?” Grandfather Jiang said as he took a sip of the tea to keep his chaotic mind at rest.

Han Zihao didn’t say anything and sat there as he listened to the words that he was waiting to listen to for so long. He couldn’t contact Grandfather Jiang earlier because he couldn’t find the opportunity to do so.

As he has already seen, every move of Grandfather Jiang is being watched. The most sensitive place to talk was his office and that’s why after finding the right timing, he called him to meet at the Jade Hotel, where not anyone can come just because they want to.

” After Jiang Yue passed away, for a few months, I was under the impression that it was just an accident, like everyone else. However, one day I heard something that turned my life upside down.” Grandfather Jiang started to break the walls that he had built around him one by one.

” The family and the household that I cherished the most, became a living hell for me. Jiang Mansion is not the same anymore.” The old man’s eyes became moist as he continued.

” Jiang Yue’s accident, it wasn’t an accident. But a full-fledged murder plan.” Grandfather Jiang said, causing Han Zihao’s jaw to tighten as he tried to keep himself calm in front of the old man, who was already going through so many emotions as he revealed the truth to him.

” And...who is that person?” Han Zihao asked, trying to be as calm as possible. However, the veins on his hands were popping out as he tightened his fists and was trying to control his rage.

Not like he didn’t expect this kind of bitter truth, it still sends him chills how someone tried to take Jiang Yue away from him. If not for Jiang Yue returning as Xu Nuan, he had almost lost Jiang Yue to that incident.

” I believe you must have guessed it already. That person is none other than....my eldest Granddaughter – Jiang Ru.” The old man closed his eyes in disappointment as he said this.

The Granddaughter he used to cherish and pamper, the Granddaughter whom he used to be proud of, who would have thought that that Granddaughter will become the biggest regret of his life?

One day he went to meet the patients at the hospital where Jiang Yue took her last breath and also to donate in her memory. However, rather than spending the whole day at the hospital with the patients, he came back early to the Jiang Mansion since he was feeling unwell that day.

When he was going to his study, he heard Jiang Ru talking to his mother, which made his eyes open that day.

It was the day he realized that Jiang Yue’s death wasn’t an accident but a planned murder that made it look like an accident. Who would have thought that Jiang Ru would be behind that kind of incident?

How can she even think of killing her cousin, just for the materialistic gains?

” Did you hear...how...how did she do that and why?” Han Zihao inhaled a deep breath as he asked this question to Grandfather Jiang with much difficulty.

It’s difficult for him to talk about this thing to him, how hard it must be on him to deal with that kind of people all along after knowing the truth?

When the accident took place, Hao Mei and Qin Ju were assumed to be involved in the accident conspiracy. However, who would have thought for Jiang Ru to be the culprit behind this whole game?

It’s difficult for him to talk about this thing to him, how hard it must be on him to deal with that kind of people all along after knowing the truth?

How lonely must he have felt while fighting with those people all alone? Because this accident not only took one granddaughter away from him but also distanced the other one as well who became the cause of the death of his youngest Granddaughter.

” It was all because of one reason. Jealousy and Her Greed. Jiang Ru was blinded by the jealousy of how excellent Jiang Yue was, not only in terms of her work as an idol but also in the field of business as well.” Grandfather Jiang continued as he recalled all the bad memories that he had buried in his heart.

” She was jealous how despite leaving the Jiang Family at the age of 18, Jiang Yue was doing great in the entertainment industry and was also getting recognized by the board of members of our company as well since whatever work she was taking on, everything was crossing the roofs.”

” The board of members was interested to put Jiang Yue in one of the main positions at the company so that the company would not only get the benefit of her overwhelming popularity but also the business skills that she has already showcased to the world by launching her fashion brand partnered with one of the great fashion designers which were at the number one at that time.” Grandfather Jiang said.

A frown appeared on Han Zihao’s forehead as he asked, ” But....what does Jiang Ru get after doing all that? Those achievements of Jiang Yue, she earned them herself with her hard work. Even if Jiang Yue takes over at one of the positions in the company, wasn’t Jiang Ru the one who was going to take over the business as the eldest daughter of the Jiang Family?”

” Why did she do something so heinous and killed Jiang Yue? She is her cousin sister after all.” Han Zihao was in disbelief after listening to the words of the old man.

Now he understands Xu Nuan’s dislike for her cousin sister and why she was jealous of his relationship with Han Liang. Because not all cousins share the same kind of familial bond and love.

Grandfather Jiang let out a heavy breath as he said in a low voice, ” It was all my fault. My fault.”
