Xinyan was not wrong, because Old Man Xue had been in a coma in the hospital and couldnât instruct his descendants to handle those matters at home in time.
The Xue Family was already in a precarious situation, and with the evidence sent by Han Jingchen, personnel from the relevant departments sealed off the Xue Familyâs old house that day.
The escape route Old Man Xue had planned was completely ruined by Xinyan.
The evidence was irrefutable proof of his treason, and the statement of severance from his descendants couldnât be published in the newspaper, so the Xue Family members, just as Xinyan had guessed, were all implicated.
By the time Old Man Xue woke up in the hospital, it was too late for everything.
He wanted to end it all by dying, but there was no way the authorities would let him have his way.
As for the Gu Familyâs matters, he didnât mention a word.
After Han Jingchen got wind of the news, he guessed that dealing with the Gu Family was his own selfish interest, wanting to obtain the Gu Familyâs heirloom, so he didnât report it to his superior.
Because of his greed, the Gu Family members suffered losses and deaths, and there was no way Gu Wanqing could simply swallow this anger.
After that, Han Jingchen busied himself for a while until the issues with the Xue Family and the other three families were settled.
When Xinyan came home over the weekend, Han Jingchen happened to return as well, dusty and tired: "Dad, how did things go?"
Just then, Gu Wanqing came out holding her son, who had just woken up: "Youâre back, I had Sister Chen stew some birdâs nest soup."
Seeing Han Chaojun in her arms, Xinyan smiled and leaned forward: "Junjun, did you miss your sister?"
Saying this, she took the little one over: "Mom, Junjun has gained weight again."
Gu Wanqingâs eyes were full of smiles: "Our Junjun has grown taller, so naturally, he feels heavier to hold."
Xinyan looked at the little one with a smile: "So our Junjun has grown taller."
The little one responded with âoohs and aahsâ to Xinyanâs words, bringing joy to the whole family.
Once they sat down again, Xinyan turned to look at Han Jingchen: "Dad, do hurry up and tell us."
Han Jingchen downed a glass of water and then sat down: "As for Old Man Xue, Xue Yishan, itâs just one word - âdeathâ. While the Xue Family members were not directly involved, they werenât completely unaware.
Over the years, they have enjoyed the wealth gained from Xue Yishanâs treason, so they canât wash their hands of the matter either. Theyâve all been sent for reeducation through labor at the most remote farms, and they can forget about coming back in this lifetime."
That naturally made sense to Xinyan; once they reached their destination, surviving would be a challenge, let alone dreaming of a comeback.
Gu Wanqing listened, tears welling in her eyes: "If they hadnât been so blinded by greed, Big Brother wouldnât have been murdered, and Second Brother wouldnât be missing to this day. Over the years, the Xue Family has committed countless crimes, and their demise is well-deserved."
Fearing that Gu Wanqing would get overly emotional about the past, Han Jingchen quickly changed the topic: "Iâve already arranged for someone to bring Mom and Dad back. They should be able to return in a few days."
Gu Wanqing couldnât dwell on her grief anymore: "When will they return to the Capital?"
Seeing her urgency, Han Jingchen replied: "Weâll know when their tickets are booked, but it will be within a few days."
As Xinyan played with the little one in her arms, she asked: "What about Granny Zhang and Uncle Shanzi?"
Han Jingchen poured himself another glass of water: "Theyâll be coming together. I talked on the phone with Uncle Shanzi a few days ago. He should have made all the arrangements by now."
Xinyan was delighted: "What arrangements are made for Uncle Shanziâs work when he comes over?"
Knowing his daughterâs concerns, Han Jingchen teased with a smile: "Donât worry, youâll be satisfied."
Exposed by her father, Xinyan laughed: "Iâm just concerned about Granny Zhangâs well-being in her later years. If Uncle Shanziâs work goes well, Granny Zhang will naturally benefit."
Gu Wanqing understood her daughterâs feelings towards Aunt Zhang; she was naturally attentive to the Zhang Familyâs matters: "Jingchen, Yanyan is right, you should pay attention."
Han Jingchen nodded: "You can relax; once Shanzi comes up, he can choose his work, whether itâs entering the railway system, the public security system, or a factory, itâs up to him."
This made both mother and daughter satisfied, and the thought of reuniting with the family soon lifted everyoneâs spirits greatly.
