Chapter 390 - Cold Attitude 2
Yan Qingyun was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at Qi Xingzhi and asked uncertainly, “You said that you found Mianmian?”
How was this possible? Yan Mian had been missing for more than 24 years. How could they find her? The Qi family had not found any trace of her for the past 20 years. How did they suddenly find her?
Yan Qingyun looked away and suppressed the surprise in his heart. He said calmly, “Xingzhi, could you have made a mistake? This world is very big, and there are many similar people. You’re young, so it’s inevitable that you’ll mistake two similar people. This is very normal.”
“This matter is not that simple. In the capital, many people know that I’m looking for my daughter. General Qi is looking for his granddaughter. Perhaps someone took advantage of the loophole and wanted to do something.”
Yan Qingyun calmly analyzed Qi Xingzhi. After saying that, he looked up at Qi Xingzhi and asked, “Xingzhi, have you told your great-grandfather about this?”
Before Qi Xingzhi could speak, Qi Xingfeng replied, “We haven’t told our great-grandfather yet. We have to wait for you and aunt to test your blood before bringing our aunt home. We’ll tell our great-grandfather then.”
Qi Xingzhi nodded and said, “Yes, this is a serious matter. Great-grandfather is not in good health, so we won’t tell him rashly. Therefore, granduncle, please go over and do a blood test with Aunt.”
Yan Qingyun looked at Qi Xingzhi and smiled gently. He asked curiously, “Xingzhi, why are you so sure that she’s your aunt? I haven’t even had a blood test with her yet.”
Qi Xingzhi smiled and said, “I can’t explain it in a few sentences, but you will know why I’m so sure when you see her.”
Yan Qingyun smiled. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea before saying, “Alright, this matter is too sudden. Don’t be anxious. Let me investigate them first, okay? You’re young and don’t understand the dangerous situation in politics. It’s easy for others to fall into their trap. Give me three days. When I’ve investigated, we’ll go over and do a blood test with her.”
Qi Xingzhi frowned slightly. He felt that Yan Qingyun’s reaction to the news was too calm. It made him feel very uncomfortable. However, on second thought, in the eyes of the Yan family, Yan Mian was already a dead person and was no longer important. It was normal for Yan Qingyun not to be excited or expect anything.
Qi Xingzhi didn’t say anything, but Qi Xingfeng didn’t want to wait. He said unhappily, “What’s there to investigate? Just look at the results of the blood test. As long as she’s my aunt, I don’t care if she has any schemes. Besides, she’s my aunt!”
If not, they would be admitting their mistake. They were the ones who took the initiative to look for her. If not, then forget it. Did they have to make things difficult for others because of her?
Qi Xingfeng couldn’t do such a thing.
Yan Qingyun looked at the impatient Qi Xingfeng and said with a smile, “Xingfeng, you’re always anxious. We’ve been looking for 24 years. There’s no need to be anxious for a day or two. I naturally have to investigate my daughter. Don’t be anxious. Tell me the address and go home to wait for news. I’ll definitely go with you in three days.”
After Yan Qingyun finished speaking, he looked at Qi Xingzhi and said, “Alright, explain to your brother nicely. He’s too impatient and won’t listen to what I say. You’re a smart child. You must understand what I’m doing.”
Qi Xingfeng found it hard to understand. He was about to speak when Qi Xingzhi pulled him.
Qi Xingzhi nodded and said, “It’s reasonable for granduncle to be careful. You’ve been here for so long. You can afford to wait for three days. Let’s do as granduncle says. In three days, we’ll go and witness the results of the blood test.”
After Qi Xingzhi finished speaking, he told Yan Qingyun the address of Su Chong’s house.
With that, Qi Xingzhi pulled Qi Xingfeng away and said, “Granduncle, we’ll go home first.”
Yan Qingyun smiled and said, “What’s the hurry? Xingfeng hasn’t eaten breakfast yet. It’s not too late to wait for him to eat something.”
How could Qi Xingfeng eat? He was unhappy, and his emotions were written all over his face. Without waiting for Qi Xingzhi to speak, he said, “No need. Since granduncle said three days, I’ll see you in three days.”
With that, Qi Xingfeng pulled Qi Xingzhi out.
He was so angry that he couldn’t care less about Qi Xingzhi and walked away quickly.
Qi Xingzhi knew that he was angry. He jogged after him and called out, “Big Brother, Big Brother, listen to me…”
Qi Xingfeng didn’t stop until they were out of the manor. He punched the wall by the side of the road angrily. “Why do we have to wait for three days? What’s there to wait for? We’re just going to check it out. It’s not like we’re going to do anything to him. With me around, who’s going to kill him?!”
In Qi Xingfeng’s opinion, they shouldn’t wait three days at all. They should go immediately.
Qi Xingzhi panted at the side. He smiled helplessly and said, “Brother, you don’t understand the court situation or the hearts of people. It’s not your fault. Forget it. If granduncle wants to wait for three days, so be it. There’s nothing suspicious about Su Hua’s family. They won’t be able to find anything after three days of investigation. After he investigates, we’ll go over with him.”
When he stopped Qi Xingfeng from interrogating him, he had used the secret code set by the two brothers. Qi Xingfeng had to listen to the secret code. He had suggested it himself.
Every time he used a secret signal, Qi Xingfeng could endure it, but after that, he would be furious for a long time.
Qi Xingfeng’s eyes were a little red. He gritted his teeth. “That’s his daughter. What’s there to investigate? If it weren’t for my great-grandfather’s poor health, I would have told him directly. If he still dared to investigate for three days, my great-grandfather would definitely beat him to death!”
He was too angry. Qi Xingfeng was going crazy.
Qi Xingzhi chuckled and said, “Big Brother is right. If my great-grandfather was in good health, he wouldn’t dare to use such a trick. It’s a pity that our great-grandfather’s health isn’t good. If Aunt completely believed me, we could still bring her home directly. Aunt has her own concerns. A blood test is necessary. It’s just three days. Just bear with it.”
“It’s been so many years, and he has a new wife. Our great-aunt has long been forgotten by him. Aunt has been lost for more than 20 years. Apart from Aunt, he has other children. He has long lost any feelings for Aunt.”
Qi Xingzhi’s eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth.
This was true human nature.
Qi Xingfeng gritted his teeth. “Damn it!”
He was angry just thinking about it. He still had to wait three days.
“I won’t be going home for the next three days. I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself. If Father and Mother ask, just say that I have a mission in the barracks.”
Now, he could not go home. With his personality, he could not hide anything at all. If he went home, he would definitely be exposed.
Qi Xingzhi nodded. “Okay, I’ll tell Father and Mother. But Eldest Brother, don’t go overboard in the barracks. If someone complains to Great-grandfather, he will definitely punish you.”
Qi Xingfeng was in a bad mood. He always had to compete with the soldiers in the barracks. If he used too much strength, the other generals would not be able to maintain their morale. They would also complain and get the old general to punish Qi Xingfeng.
