Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1098: Chapter 1098: Making Something Out of Nothing, Causing Great Harm

Han Jingchen was amused by her action: "Asleep."

Gu Wanqing glared at him: "You know your son is a light sleeper. With such a commotion, if he wakes up, there will be trouble."

Han Jingchen good-naturedly pulled Gu Wanqing over: "Yes, yes, yes, it was my fault."

Just as he admitted his fault, Gu Wanqing said seriously: "Alright, stop joking, let’s talk business."

Han Jingchen pulled Gu Wanqing to sit down and wiped the smile off his face: "Someone over there couldn’t hold it anymore and confessed some things."

Gu Wanqing’s whole body tensed up: "What did they say?"

Han Jingchen whispered: "They somehow got the news saying there is another treasure site belonging to the Gu Family, that’s the true foundation of the Gu Family. Most importantly, they say the Gu Family holds a rare treasure, which contains wonders within."

Upon hearing this, Gu Wanqing was filled with anger: "Another treasure site for the Gu Family, maybe it’s true, after all, the Gu Family has been in business for so many generations. But as for the rare treasure, isn’t that creating something out of nothing and causing harm?

It seems our Gu Family has been wronged by these unfounded rumors. I really don’t know who is trying to harm us, and how we have offended this person."

Han Jingchen was about to reply when the young lady walked in with large strides.

Just as he was about to ask, the phone rang.

Xinyan picked it up quickly: "Hello, who is it?"

She had just asked when Jiang Peiqin’s voice came through the receiver, although it sounded off: "Peiqin, what’s wrong?"

Jiang Peiqin, hearing Xinyan ask, choked up: "Xinyan, do you have time?"

Xinyan quickly asked: "What happened, where are you?"

Jiang Peiqin was silent for a long time.

Xinyan softened her voice: "Peiqin, tell me where you are?"

Jiang Peiqin still didn’t answer, just as Xinyan was about to use her trump card: "What should I do, Yanyan, he’s tainted, we probably have no hope."

Upon hearing this, Xinyan guessed what was happening: "Don’t be afraid, tell me where you are, I’ll come over to stay with you right away."

This time, Jiang Peiqin didn’t refuse and gave her the address.

Xinyan didn’t even have time to explain clearly to her parents, she just apologized: "Mom, Dad, whatever it is, we’ll talk when I get back. I have an urgent matter, I must go out now."

With that, she ran out in a hurry.

Knowing Jiang Peiqin’s temperament, she was afraid she’d do something extreme.

Although normally people thought she was cold and aloof, like she didn’t care about anything, she was actually very emotional, fearing something might happen if she was late.

So there was a speeding car on the road, scaring lots of pedestrians, attracting curses and swearing.

Xinyan didn’t care about those, usually an hour’s journey, she managed to get there in forty minutes.

She slammed the car door shut and went straight to the location Jiang Peiqin mentioned.

When she found Jiang Peiqin, she was alone, hugging her legs in a daze, with tear stains on her face.

Seeing Xinyan coming over, she was like a helpless child: "Xinyan, what should I do?"

Xinyan hugged her tightly: "Don’t be afraid, I’m here, tell me what happened?"

Jiang Peiqin leaned her head on Xinyan’s shoulder: "Previously, the wedding date was almost set, but he got tied up with something at the last minute and pushed it to March after the New Year.

But last night, after going out drinking with friends, he got into trouble. When I arrived, the young lady was crying like a tearful person, saying Ling Wenhao took advantage of her.

I believe him, but that young lady always had a good reputation in the neighborhood before, I really don’t know what to do?"
