Chapter 477 Confused
Sure enough, facing Pang Shi who had fainted on the ground, Jiang An showed no worry or anxiety on his face, nor did he have the intention of getting up to help her. He didn't even call for the servants to come in. He just looked coldly at the person who had collapsed on the ground.

Wu Qing was shocked. There was no need to think about it. What about Young Master Yong from Zhaozhong Town who slipped and broke his leg? What about Cheng'er who had his fingers chopped off by people from the gambling house? How could it be such a coincidence? The news about Pang Dayong and Cheng'er being injured was delivered at the same time?
Wu Qing glanced at Hong Xiaoduo again, only to see that she was looking at him with a half-smile. It turned out that she also knew about it. She was wondering why Hong Xiaoduo suddenly came uninvited, and she felt it was a bit strange at the time.

"Manager Wu, what's wrong with your Aunt Pang? Wasn't she quite calm and rational when she heard that her own son broke his leg? Why did she faint when she heard that Jiang Baicheng's finger was cut off?
One is her biological son, and the other is her own. The palms and backs of her hands are all flesh, but the contrast between the reactions before and after is too great, isn't it too exaggerated?" Hong Xiaoduo asked with a smile, looking at Wu Qing's reaction.

"I'm just a manager, how would I know?" Wu Qing tried hard to keep himself calm and composed, not to panic.

But it is easy to think about it, but it is not that easy to actually do it.

Over the years, I had thought about how I would respond if I was exposed midway. I had imagined many scenarios, but I had never thought of this one. This was too sudden. How did Jiang An find out? When did he know about it?

Wu Qing was certain that the only two people here who knew about the incident were himself and Pang Shi.

On Pang's natal side, only her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law knew about it, and it was Pang who told them without authorization. However, as a greedy family, they would keep their mouths shut for the sake of money.

But in fact, what he was most worried about were the people from Pang's mother's family. Therefore, among all the possibilities he thought of, there was no possibility that Jiang An would have the opportunity to know the truth while he was alive.

The most secure way to quietly take over the Jiang family's assets that he had initially discussed with Pang Shi was to wait for Jiang An to die of old age. However, he was about the same age as Jiang An, and he could not guarantee that the other party would die before him.

The reason why he did this was not to satisfy himself, but really for his descendants to live a good life.

Later, he changed his mind, thinking that after another five or ten years, when the right opportunity came, he would make Jiang An seriously ill and die early.

There are two reasons why I have never taken action against Jiang An. First, Jiang An is really good at making money, and I am really not as good as him in this aspect.

In this way, letting Jiang An live one more year means that he can help himself earn one more year's money.

It is out of greed that one does such a thing, and human desires are endless, so one naturally will not complain about having too much money.

Wu Qing couldn't guarantee that after he successfully obtained the other party's entire property, whether his descendants would be able to establish themselves on the basis of the wealthy foundation he had planned, so he let Jiang An make as much money as possible while he was alive, the more the better.

In that case, even if there is no son who is good at business among his sons, there will always be one among his grandsons. If there is no grandson, what about the great-grandson?

Even if there is no one good at business and making money in several generations, with such a family background, maybe there will be someone who can pursue a career in politics.

As long as the assets left to our descendants are sufficient, things will always get better and better.

I just didn't expect that Jiang An knew about it when everything was peaceful for so many years. What went wrong? What was the flaw?

"Master, Aunt Pang has been taking care of the young master and taking care of the affairs of the harem since she came to the mansion. She has never done anything out of line. Did the master listen to someone's instigation?" Although he knew that the truth was exposed, Wu Qing was a little confused for a moment. He was not sure how to respond and could only speak to try to hide his inner panic. "Manager Wu, although you are only a manager, I heard that you have a wife and a concubine, three legitimate sons, two illegitimate sons, and a daughter?" Jiang An didn't say anything, but Hong Xiaoduo spoke first.

After hearing this, Wu Qing didn't understand why she asked him these questions, but he was sure that she had ulterior motives and was deliberately trying to trick him?

"Yes, but I don't understand why, young lady, you are so interested in my family affairs?" Wu Qing responded in a bad tone.

He had a guess. Could it be possible that the reason why Jiang An knew about his son's swap was related to the little girl in front of him who was smiling but not smiling?
Sure enough, the next moment, this disgusting young lady had an expression on her face that said "as expected".

"I'm just a little confused and want to know the answer." Hong Xiaoduo's expression and tone were as if she was chatting with Manager Wu.

"What kind of riddle are you talking about, young lady? I don't understand." Wu Qing said irritably.

He and Hong Xiaoduo were talking back and forth, and Jiang An, the head of the Jiang family, was listening quietly. Pang Shi was lying on the cold ground and no one paid any attention to her.

After hearing what Wu Qing said, Hong Xiaoduo stood up with a smile and said, "Manager Wu, do you really not understand, or are you pretending to be confused? I am confused because I can't figure out that since Jiang Baicheng is your son with Pang Shi, she fainted when she heard that Jiang Baicheng's fingers were cut off in the gambling house. But as for you, Manager Wu, I only saw that you were distracted and thinking about things, but you didn't show any reaction of worrying about your son's safety or feeling distressed.

Now I have found the answer. I guess, although Jiang Baicheng is your son, to you, he is just a pawn in your conspiracy, right?

If I'm not mistaken, when you succeed in your mission, this huge fortune will be left to the children born to you and your wives and concubines, right?
If you really care about Jiang Baicheng, how could you allow him to be so crooked?

Ask yourself, in this world, who among the parents doesn't want their children to have a promising future? Besides, Jiang Baicheng has grown up in front of you since he was a child, so you don't care whether he grows up crooked or not, or whether he has a promising future, right?"

"Master, I, Wu Qing, have been working beside you for many years. How can you tolerate a wandering girl talking nonsense?" Wu Qing looked at Jiang An angrily.

Jiang An chuckled, "Yes, you have been by my side for many years, and I didn't even know that I had fed a Zhongshan wolf. You and I both know whether Xiaoduo is talking nonsense or not.

Things have come to this point. If you don't admit it, no matter how you try to argue, it will be in vain. So, do you regret it now and feel annoyed that you didn't get rid of me earlier?

As the saying goes, good is rewarded with good, and evil is punished with evil. The time has not come yet, but now, the retribution for the two of you has come. You have carefully planned and endured for many years, but it ended in failure. You feel bad, right? Unwilling to accept it, right? "

Seeing Wu Qing's obviously confused reaction, the anger in his heart subsided a little.

After hearing this, Wu Qing knew he only had two choices: one, to honestly confess his guilt.

Second, he had to burn his boats. He had already come to this point. How could he be willing to plead guilty?
