Chapter 863: Fortunately, You Are My Son
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“You...” The Old Master didn’t expect Hua Qingmei to use her precious grandchildren to swear.
“Why didn’t you swear to let your second branch’s whole family die!” He asked angrily.
“Father, it’s not that I don’t dare to make this vicious oath, but today is the babies’ one-month-old celebration. I don’t want to say anything inauspicious. Father, if our second branch dies and you can calm down, it’s okay if our whole family dies.”
Second Madam Rong wiped her tears and said.
The Old Master looked at Rong Jinghui darkly. “Is that person really from the An family?”
Rong Jinghui hesitated for a while before answering. “That’s An Bufang’s person, that’s right.”
“Haha, the An family!” The Old Master gritted his teeth. “Linyi! Contact the An family’s head immediately. I want them to give me an explanation!”
“Okay.” Rong Linyi replied briefly.
He came out to contact An Mingchen.
Madam Rong also followed.
“You planned this?” She lowered her voice and asked Rong Linyi. “You and Jinghui acted together?”
“Mother, you think too highly of me.” Rong Linyi replied lazily. “I just took advantage of the situation. Besides, Grandpa’s life was saved by Jinghui and me.”
Madam Rong shook her head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
“Since you know that An Bufang and the second branch worked together to harm your grandfather, you should also know how to neutralize the drug... You...”
He could have told the Old Master to avoid this accident, but Rong Linyi still took the risk and let Rong Jinghui add a disproportionate antidote to the wine. Not only did he save the Old Master’s life, but he also exposed the matter and pushed An Bufang and the Rong family’s second branch to the forefront.
“Next, it will depend on An Bufang and the second branch’s dogfight.”
Rong Linyi said lightly.
“Don’t underestimate the second branch. Hua Qingmei isn’t good at other things, but she has a lot of tricks up her sleeve.” Madam Rong sneered. “She harmed me repeatedly back then, but she didn’t leave any evidence behind.”
“It’s okay.” Rong Linyi smiled slightly at Madam Rong. “With An Mingchen’s cold-bloodedness and the An family’s inertia, he definitely would rather sacrifice An Bufang than take the blame for her. Even if he can’t get rid of the second branch, it’s not bad to get rid of An Bufang.”
At least, no one would stop Rong Xuelong and Jiang Chenglong’s marriage.
The second branch would also lose a helper to deal with Su Yanyun.
Madam Rong looked at Rong Linyi in admiration and fear. “Fortunately, you’re my son.”
“You have to thank Jinghui. He’s not your son, but he’s still willing to help your son.” Rong Linyi teased Madam Rong.
That’s right, he had long heard the news that Old Master Rong wanted to give in and let him return to the Rong family.
Of course, if he could find out about this news, the second branch could also know about it.
The second branch had finally obtained the Rong family’s power, so how could they hand it over easily?
After all, they were relatives under the same roof, and Rong Linyi’s deduction of the second branch’s subsequent actions was very accurate.
They had indeed joined forces with An Bufang and were prepared to poison the Old Master. At the full moon banquet, the moment he announced the news, the Old Master fell to the ground and couldn’t get up.
Logically speaking, Rong Linyi could have told the Old Master and gotten him to prepare in advance.
But... why did he have to do this?
What if the Old Master didn’t believe his words and instead alerted the second branch, causing them to change their plans and bite him instead?
