20 years of restarting life

Chapter 3610 Qi Xinghu

Xia Wenzhuo nodded, unwilling to waste this precious time on Zhang Shun's matter. He brought Zhao Chang'an here today to thoroughly clarify the matter between the two of them regarding her family.

Before the power struggle at Green Garden, Xia Wenzhuo hadn't considered having such a serious conversation with Zhao Chang'an so early. However, she believed she understood Zhao Chang'an, this little man, and knew his indulgence, tolerance, and disappointment towards Shan Qiang in the matter of Green Garden.

Therefore, she felt it necessary to clarify this long-standing issue between the two of them.

I don't want the two of us to have a deliberate avoidance and taboo about this matter.

“I don’t know how my brother is now, but he’s probably dead. I’ll just assume he’s dead because he, like my uncle, committed a capital crime. As for my dad, although he didn’t deserve to die, he was framed by the Yin and Geng families. Although I don’t know how you killed Geng Erxi and I called you to vent my anger, I still like you deep down. I know you did it for me, but I’ll just assume that you, as his son-in-law, took revenge for your hated father-in-law.”

"To this day and night, I am still grateful to you. No matter what means you used to fuel these events, you have no real consequences. My brother and uncle killed Zeng Chunming and Qi Xiangfeng. Putting aside their other crimes, just for these two cases, they reaped what they sowed and died unyielding. My father was framed by the Yin family, but that was his own choice. He colluded with Yin Wenxi for so many years and got Yin Wan pregnant. He thought he could live a carefree life abroad because he had money, but he didn't realize that his previous alliance with Yin Wenxi showed that the Yin family was just as ruthless and shameless as he was."

"As for my cousin, his case has nothing to do with you. He asked for it and got what he deserved; he's not innocent. Of those people, except for the one who's in jail for sixteen years, the others are doing quite well. But I reckon the more famous you become, the more anxious they'll be. They think you're a celebrity now, that you should be concerned about your reputation and won't bother with them. Just like Han Xin. Hehe~"

Xia Wenzhuo laughed: "You're my man, so you don't need to worry about this. Leave it to me. Don't worry, I'll keep the retaliation within the business sphere. Their future will become more and more difficult and desperate, little by little, day by day."

"Thank you, honey."

What else could Zhao Chang'an say about this? What Xia Wenzhuo didn't know was that Zhao Chang'an had never doubted or worried that she would one day betray him like Shan Qiang did.

Because in his previous life, when he was still a lowly laborer, this woman was able to go to the back mountain of Qiaojiashan Brick and Tile Factory with him, and after he forced himself on her for the first time, she chose to remain silent.

Moreover, she remained unmarried afterward and did not have any ambiguous relationships with any men or generate any rumors.

"In my family, my mother was vain and ignorant, but in practice, she did not cause any real harm to my uncle and aunt."

Zhao Chang'an nodded: "Any progress in Central Asia?"

"That place is too remote, and there's fighting everywhere, especially now. Outsiders are all unfamiliar faces. If you go in, forget about finding anything; it's not easy to even come out alive. The Lu family's influence doesn't even reach there yet, and the same goes for the White Dragon King's side."

There was a sense of loneliness and desolation in Xia Wenzhuo's voice: "Now, you're my only family."

Clearly, she was not optimistic about her mother Qiao Qinqin's current situation.

Have you ever heard of the name Qi Xinghu?

Xia Wenzhu shook his head. "He is Xu Sange's sworn brother. In fact, you could say that I saved your father's life. However, he shouldn't have gone to Los Angeles, and he shouldn't have gotten Yin Wan pregnant and recognized Yin Wenxi and Peng Jiahui as his father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Zhao Chang'an said, "Xia Wenyang got Xu San in jail. Although Qi Daolong helped to get rid of Xu San after he got in, if Xia Wenyang hadn't gotten Xu San in first, Qi Daolong, as a businessman, really wouldn't have had a better solution. But before Qi Xinghu could even look for Xia Wenyang, he ran off to North America. This guy has been fighting in Siberia and Alaska for over a decade, and it seems he doesn't take planes or ships. If he wants to get to North America, he can only wait for the Bering Strait to freeze over and then hike across 35 kilometers of ice."

Zhao Chang'an found his words humorous and couldn't help but laugh. He thought to himself that if Qi Xinghu really did trek across the ice sheet of the Bering Strait, he wouldn't just be a businessman who cherishes resources, but a world-class extreme sports adventurer.

Xia Wenzhuo didn't find the joke funny at all, because she didn't know what Qi Xinghu, Ye Jingtian, and Ren Xiongtu had done in the car confrontation ten years ago.

Although they belonged to two different camps at the time, they were hired, and their main purpose was to seek extreme thrills rather than to earn a hundred dollars per person.

“This person is quite well-known in Central Asia. Give me the information, and I’ll have him send someone over to look for him.”

If Qiao Qinqin were in a slightly more developed place, Zhao Chang'an guessed that since there had been no news of her, she must have died.

After all, Zhao Chang'an is now famous throughout the world, so if you pay attention, it's not hard to find the name Xia Wenzhuo in the reporting landscape of One Nanometer.

Moreover, the Chinese website for OneNanometer can be found on the internet worldwide; you can log in to it.

Once logged in, Xia Wenzhuo's information is easily accessible.

Although Qiao Qinqin only graduated from junior high school, she later attended night school and worked in the president's office of the First Construction Company before becoming a full-time housewife. She was skilled at photocopying, printing, and researching information. She could use the old 486 computers in the president's office, so it was impossible for her not to know how to use the more advanced computers available today.

Qiao Qinqin is currently in Central Asia, where computers and the internet are rare and precious, and even mobile phones are scarce and precious. Many wealthy people use Iridium satellite phones, which still offer some global satellite communication support, for external communication.

That phone costs several thousand dollars, and it's incredibly expensive. Even if Qiao Qinqin were still alive, it wouldn't be something she could access.

Zhao Chang'an held Xia Wenzhuo's arm and felt her heartbeat quicken suddenly. Clearly, no matter how much resentment or dissatisfaction Xia Wenzhuo had had towards her mother before, she was, after all, the mother who gave birth to her and raised her.

Just like with Xia Wenyang, although Xia Wenzhuo knew that he deserved his punishment, he still couldn't let go of the resentment after the Yin family plotted to get rid of him and seized all the assets he had taken with him. He never gave up his desire for revenge.

After all, he had raised her for so many years, and for all those years he had tried his best to be a decent father to her.

This blood relationship cannot be changed or ignored.
