Chapter 606: Pendant’s Use (3)

She knew Elder Yun because she was a medical student that studied at Beijing University.

She knew Master Liang because the Jian family had connections with him.

However, why was she related to Cai Ningxuan? This was not an ordinary place!

Cai Qinyue immediately asked Jian Yiling: “Yiling, are you hiding something from us?”

Cai Qinyue suspected that there was some relationship between Jian Yiling and Cai Ningxuan. She felt that Jian Yiling was hiding something from them.

“No,” Jian Yiling replied.

“You don’t need to hide the truth from us. Why would you need to hide such things from your aunt and uncle?”

“I’m not hiding anything,” Jian Yiling repeated.

However, Cai Qinyue continued to speak to Jian Yiling: “Yiling, you shouldn’t hide stuff from us. If you know people from Cai Ningxuan, that’s a good thing. There’s no need to hide that from us. You don’t need to be worried about your uncle attempting to gain connections through you. He’s not that kind of person.”

Upon hearing this, Wen Nuan began to feel quite frustrated: “Sister-in-law, Yiling already said that she does not know anyone from Cai Ningxuan. If you don’t believe her words, why are you asking her in the first place?”

When faced with Wen Nuan’squestioning, Cai Qinyue attempted to explain herself: “I’m just worried that Yiling is afraid to explain the situation to us. Furthermore, you also saw the situation today. Do you really think that your daughter has no connections with Cai Ningxuan?”

“Well, even if she does, she might not know what’s going on,” Wen Nuan replied. “Furthermore, Yiling already told you that she does not know what’s happening.”

In the past, she did not trust her daughter. Back then, she had paid the price of losing her daughter’s trust.

Wen Nuan was unwilling to make such a mistake again.

By this time, Wen Cheng had regained his senses. He immediately reprimanded his wife: “Are you still going on about this? You caused all of this! And now, you still have the nerve to question Yiling? If it weren’t for Yiling, we would have gotten kicked out of Cai Ningxuan by now!”

Wen Cheng’s voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

When Cai Qinyue heard her husband’s words, she was incredibly upset: “Am I not blaming myself for my actions? Do you think that I wanted things to become like this? Did I not apologize to Manager Zhu? I know I made a mistake however, it was unintentional! I said the wrong thing, however, I would have never imagined such consequences to happen!”

Wen Ruo attempted to help her mother as well: “Father, I’m also at fault. I thought the fan was authentic. If you want to scold someone, please scold me. Don’t scold my mother. My mother already blames herself.”

Wen Ruo’s eyes were red and tears were spinning in them.

When Wen Cheng looked at his daughter’s tearful face, his anger subsided a lot.

In reality, his wife did not make a big mistake. She was just a bit narrow-minded and petty. That was why she was upset with spending fifty million dollars on a counterfeit item.

Furthermore, she did not clearly understand the rules of Cai Ningxuan.

Back when the bid started, he allowed his wife to bid for the fan. Therefore, he should not shift all of the blame onto his wife. It was unreasonable for him to do that.

Wen Cheng sighed: “It’s okay. I don’t blame your mother. However, both of you need to thank Yiling. Although she doesn’t know what’s happening, she still helped us out.”

Cai Qinyue glanced at Jian Yiling and Wen Nuan. For some reason, she felt a lot of resentment.

However, she had to go along with her husband’s wishes. She was the one who did the wrong thing.

“Yiling, thank you for helping us. We will remember your favor.”

Wen Ruo added: “Yeah, thank you so much. You helped us a lot today.”

However, Jian Yiling did not respond to their words. She wasn’t sure whether this matter was actually related to her.
