Chapter 36: The Zhao Family Finds a Clue

g Shen Le as she did, few people in all of Jianghai City could have caught his eye.Even she, the eldest Miss of the Pan family, one of the four prominent families in Jiang Hai, had repeatedly shown fa...>

"Hongyuan, Qiunan, you two just take them!" Old Wang also chimed in.

"Thank you, Grandpa Wang. I appreciate the thought, but please keep the money. You should take it back." Shen Qiunan took a deep breath and continued.

Actually, for her right now, this money is undoubtedly a huge temptation.

Subconsciously, she really wanted to take it. Hundreds of thousands would be enough for her family's expenses for two years.

But after some inner struggle, I resisted the temptation.

Ling Hao, standing nearby, flashed a look of approval in his eyes after hearing the words spoken by Qin Hongyuan and his wife.

The neighbors saw that Qin Hongyuan and the two were indeed unwilling to accept money, and finally didn't insist any longer. After thanking them profusely again, they all said goodbye and left.

An hour later, the family went back into the house.

"Brother-in-law, did you do this" As soon as Qin Yufei walked into the room, she looked at Ling Hao and asked, "You actually know such a powerful person"

"No!" Ling Hao shook his head. "The friend I know is just an ordinary clerk in the real estate department."

"Do you think I'm three years old An ordinary clerk could make a developer bleed so much" Qin Yufei pouted.

“Well, I wouldn't know. I just asked that friend to mention it to the developer, so they wouldn’t make a bigger deal out of things.” Ling Hao added after a moment's pause.

"Maybe the developer had a change of heart!"

"Have you ever seen a developer with such a conscience Not only did they make up the difference, but they also gave an extra 200,000 yuan" Qin Yufie clearly didn't believe Ling Hao.

Qin Hongyuan, his wife, and Qin Yuxin all stared at Ling Hao with the same look of disbelief.

"Um... I'm not sure about that." Ling Hao shrugged his shoulders.

"Forget it, don't dwell on this. Whatever the reason, it's a good thing, isn't it"

"But..." Qin Yufei spoke again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"It's you What are you trying to do again" Qin Yufei's expression immediately tightened when she saw the bald man from yesterday after opening the door.

"Miss Qin, please don't misunderstand, I came here specifically to apologize." The bald man led two attendants into the room.

First, she subconsciously glanced at Ling Hao and Lu Yue, a deep fear flashing in her eyes.

Then, bowing towards Qin Hongyuan's family: "I'm sorry everyone, yesterday's events were my fault. Please don't hold it against me..."

"Get up and speak!" Qin Yuxin took a deep breath then continued.

"You tell me, who exactly went to see your boss That's what caused such a drastic change in your attitude"

"As for Miss Qin, no one has come looking for our boss," the bald man added after climbing back to his feet.

"Our boss held a special meeting last night in the city about relocation."

At the meeting, relevant leaders emphasized the need to strictly investigate compensation for demolition. The boss was worried that homeowners would cause trouble, so he made this decision.

"Why are all the neighbors thanking our family" Qin Yuxin continued to ask.

"There's a clerk named Liu in that department who said he knows your family." Baldhead paused slightly before continuing.

He reminded our boss that it would be best to give the property owners some extra compensation, just in case something happens.

After finishing his words, he received a bag from a servant behind him.

“This is RMB 200,000 as compensation for Ms. Qin and you. If you want to sell this house, we will purchase it at market price.”

"If you don't want to sell, you can stay here first. When this neighborhood is officially demolished, I'll find you temporary housing, and you can move back in after the houses here are built."

"Is that really true" Qin Yufei asked.

“That’s only right! Miss Qin, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave!”

The bald man put the bag on the ground, then bent down again and hurried out the door.

He didn't want to stay there for even a minute, fearing he might say the wrong thing.

After stepping out the door, I felt a large patch on my back had been soaked with cold sweat.

"They really gave everyone 200,000" After the bald man left, Shen Qiunan opened the bag and looked at it, her face full of joy.

She's still a little pained that she just refused the money her neighbors offered her!

Now that I see my family also has 200,000 yuan, my heart feels much more at ease.

At the same time, her eyes looked at Ling Hao with complexity.

Although she couldn't be sure if the person Ling Hao found was actually responsible, one way or another, they had definitely put in the effort.

And most importantly, this day and this incident not only made him feel proud in front of his neighbors, but also earned him an unexpected fortune of 200,000!

"Lu Yue, was it you who went to see Cao Dongquan last night" Qin Yuxin pondered for a moment before turning to Lu Yue and asking.

"Huh" Lu Yue shook his head vigorously. "No! He's a big boss who runs both the black and white markets, I wouldn't dare to find him!"

"Neither of you two tells the truth!" Qin Yuxin glanced at Ling Hao and the other person before speaking.

"Daddy, Ruirui wants to be held high, Daddy, hold Ruirui high." At this time, Ruirui leaned in Ling Hao's arms and said.

"Okay!" Ling Hao smiled and nodded, then lifted Ruirui up in his hands.

West of the city, Zhao's grand courtyard.

Zhao, the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Yuehua, was sitting solemnly in his villa's living room, a cigar between his fingers, his face ashen.

Since Zhao Jiahua's incident, he hasn't been in a good mood.

What bothered him even more was that he had used all his family's resources to investigate the matter from five years ago, to see if there were any loose ends in the Zheng family. However, until now, there wasn't a single piece of information.

Also, the person who appeared at the Crown Hotel that night and pushed their own son to death, also vanished without a trace, leaving him with no one to seek revenge from.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

In a short while, footsteps sounded at the door.

Then, Zhao Jia'erye Zhao Yuehui strode in, carrying a blood-soaked, emaciated man in his arms. Blood continuously dripped from the man's mouth.

"Big brother, we have a lead!" Zhao Yuehui threw the thin man to the ground and looked at Zhao Yuehua, opening his mouth.

"Say!" Zhao Yuehua's eyes lit up.

"This kid accidentally let slip some important information at a drinking party a few days ago." Zhao Yuehui pointed at the thin man and spoke.

Five years ago, on that day, he saw Qin Hongyuan's eldest daughter save a person with his own eyes. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Zheng family's remnant!

"Hmm!" Zhao Yuehua's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the man and spoke in a deep voice: "Are you sure she is Qin Hongyuan's eldest daughter"

"Yes...yes..." The thin man spoke with difficulty: "She...she is the number one beauty in Dongzhou. I...I recognized her at first glance..."

"Where did you see her saving someone" Zhao Yuehua continued to ask.

"Just...just on that street next to the Zheng family mansion at that time..." Blood kept oozing from the man's mouth.

"I saw her... she was helping a bloody man into a taxi..."n spoke in a deep voice.His eyes were fixed on Ling Hao, "Coming to the heartland of Dongyuan Kingdom and killing my war minister at the gate of my war department base, do you really think there is no...
