Chapter 711: Chapter 218: Information Exchange
At least the current Su Xiaocai is definitely straightforward, why do these suppressed businesses have to accept this?
Because Su Xiaocai relies entirely on technology to win, not using strong-arm tactics or conspiracies to squeeze out market share and climb ranks.
That’s why Xue Feiting finds it difficult to muster the anger to go against Su Xiaocai.
Even an alliance would be useless; strong technology will break through the siege sooner or later.
Xue Feiqun pointed at Xue Feiting and Yi Xue, "You’ve both been brainwashed by the Su’s. That’s all just her external business image. Do you really understand her?"
Xue Feijun interjected, "Second brother, that’s not right. We might not understand Su Xiaocai, but don’t we know Ji Li? Ji Li is famous in the circle for her precise insight, not just in investments but in assessing people too."
"Shut up, as long as someone has a sharper mind than yours, you always see them through rose-colored glasses, thinking they’re all good." Xue Feiqun was very angry, "You people support her, and one day you’ll regret it."
Xue Feijun curled his lips, "There aren’t many people who are smarter than me. People that both big brother and Ji Li agree with, I think can be approached."
Just then, Yi Xue received a text message; it was a short video sent by Su Xiaocai. In the video, Xue Zhiyi, like a normal person, was commanding three cats.
The bright smile was something the secluded Xue Zhiyi could never have.
Yi Xue’s eyes reddened; in less than a week, Xue Zhiyi’s condition had recovered.
Proving she hadn’t made a mistake.
Afterwards, she saw an unexpected text, "Celebrating the success of our collaboration, let me tell you some good news. You should have a nephew, definitely older than me, just where and who they are, you might need to ask your second brother."
Difficult to trace doesn’t mean impossible to trace.
It might be very hard for Xiang Qian to find out about the illegitimate child, but if Xue Feiting investigates, it’s a different story.
Xue Feiting was right next to Yi Xue, he saw the text too.
A nephew? Someone like Su Xiaocai, a super genius, definitely wouldn’t stoop to lying like this, she must have discovered something.
Xue Feiting’s mind exploded instantly, buzzing.
Yi Xue’s face grew even paler.
The couple looked incredulously at Xue Feiqun, Xue Feiting held back his impulse to question, quickly thinking why Xue Feiqun would hide it, older than Su Xiaocai, that’s before he inherited the family business.
When did Xue Feiqun stay long-term abroad? Did he hide it to keep family harmony?
Many questions flashed through his mind, Xue Feiting soon set the issue aside, this wasn’t the time to discuss it with his brother, he needed to investigate, first check Xue Feiqun’s past whereabouts.
Xue Feiqun was unnerved by the couple’s gaze, feeling as if he was being dissected from within, "Brother, sister-in-law, am I wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?"
Calmly, Xue Feiting sent the received video to Xue Feiqun, "It’s a video of your nephew, he’s doing well. What you said isn’t unreasonable, but the fact is set, having someone infiltrate Su Xiaocai’s place isn’t bad, the Su Family won’t be too guarded against Zhiyi."
On the other hand, Xue Feiqun was stunned, he worried, "Could it be dangerous like that?"
The change in tone made Xue Feiting’s mood suddenly heavy, realizing Xue Feiqun didn’t truly care about Xue Zhiyi, he unexpectedly agreed to the notion of Xue Zhiyi being a corporate spy.
Corporate espionage could lead to decades in prison, severe cases, even the death penalty.
This brother, he suddenly couldn’t understand.
Despite watching him grow up, suddenly, everything changed.
Is it Su Xiaocai’s tactic of sowing discord?
Xue Feiqun no longer insisted.
Yi Xue breathed a sigh of relief, not thinking too deeply, just feeling relieved as long as the conflict with Su Xiaocai doesn’t escalate.
Xue Feiting, unlike Yi Xue, having doubts meant he had to investigate. It’s not very difficult to check.
If his findings aligned with Su Xiaocai’s words...
He wouldn’t know what to do either, Xue Feiqun is his brother.
But if he doesn’t check, he can’t get past this hurdle.
The household’s old servants still know a few things about Xue Feiqun’s whereabouts. As for what he did outside, that’s indeed difficult to probe.
However, using the household registry, applying to check the interstellar database to see if Xue Feiqun has blood relatives is still doable, they don’t need to know who they are, just whether they exist, it’s very simple.
Within a day, with a clear result, Xue Feiqun indeed has an illegitimate child, contrary to what he imagined, he expected Xue Feiqun might have a bunch of illegitimate children.
But there’s only one.
He’s slightly older than Xue Zhiyi, male.
No further information can be checked, further steps require both parties’ consent.
For Su Xiaocai as an outsider to trace this far, it wasn’t easy, driven by what reason she investigated, Xue Feiting really wanted to know.
