Following Mr. Ye, Xiao Liu has already been controlled, and the Ye Family’s step-wife, Zhao Shuihong, across the ocean hasn’t received any news from Xiao Liu and is feeling rather bothered.

Looking at her nephew from her maternal family coming over: "Why are you here?"

Zhao Liangcheng stepped forward in front of his aunt: "Aunt, we can’t wait any longer."

Zhao Shuihong said with a conflicted expression: "Liangcheng, there’s been no news from Xiao Liu, we can’t be sure about the situation over there. What if—I’m saying, what if he’s fine, or has found his son, what would we do then?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Zhao Liangcheng spoke with some ruthlessness: "Aunt, you’ve been with him for so long, he doesn’t even want to give you a child, what does he take you for?

If he finds his son, your good days in this family will be over, it’s fine while Mr. Ye is alive, but what would you do if he isn’t?

Are you expecting that stepson you’ve never met to support you in your old age?"

Seeing Zhao Shuihong somewhat wavering: "Aunt, you can’t hesitate any longer, we nephews and nieces are just like your children.

Would you bear to see the enormous estate of the Ye Family go to waste, handed over cheaply to that stepson you’ve never met?"

Zhao Shuihong remained silent for a long time: "But if Mr. Ye comes back, and things are exposed, I’m afraid he won’t let us off easily."

If he wasn’t still trying to secure the Ye Family’s estate through his aunt, he would have long lost patience.

Only when Zhao Shuihong was persuaded and ready to act, she was informed that the company’s accounts had been entirely frozen.

Zhao Liangcheng immediately swore: "That old bastard was already guarding against you, you hesitated because of him, see what happened now?"

The step-wife’s actions quickly reached Mr. Ye, who sneered: "Can’t wait, really can’t keep their cool."

He had set his will when returning home; besides the villa they currently reside in, he left enough for his step-wife to retire, everything else if his son was found it would be inherited by him, if not found, it was to be donated entirely to the Hua Country government.

He hadn’t expected the step-wife’s maternal family to be this eager. Rather than being the step-wife’s person, Xiao Liu had long been bought by the Zhao Family.

And his step-wife, while others see her as somewhat weak, in reality she was just hiding it, likely always wary of nephews and nieces.

However, he doesn’t care how they scheme, since they have thoughts they shouldn’t, he won’t hesitate to act on them.

He directly handed matters over to his few confidants across the ocean, and prepared to return to the Capital, having Xinyan to help stabilize the condition first, then go to settle the accounts.

Elsewhere, He Jinxuan was washing dishes in the kitchen, and Xinyan was readying to water the flowers in the courtyard, when she saw Vice Captain Lu’s wife, Fu Guangying, walk in.

Xinyan couldn’t help but frown; truly lacking in manners, entering without a word, swaggering in as if she owns the place: "What do you want?"

Fu Guangying smiled while touching her belly: "I saw your door was open, figured you’d be back, so I came in to say hello."

Her skin was really thick; previously borrowing a motorbike, causing such unpleasantness, and now she comes in like nothing happened, truly admirable.

Before Xinyan could say anything, she directly sat on the stone bench in the courtyard: "Oh, my body has been particularly tired ever since I got pregnant...."

Then as if something dawned on her: "Right, we got married on the same day, I’m already expecting, do you have any signs in your belly yet?"
