Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 953: Reunion

Mr. Chu understood that what his eldest son mentioned could be very detrimental to the Chu Family if it happened: "It seems we can’t just sit and wait for death."

Chu Shunkang looked up at the old man: "Dad, what do you mean?"

Mr. Chu showed a trace of sarcasm on his face: "Send someone to investigate. If the two families have secretly colluded, then we don’t need to adhere to the previous agreement.

Moreover, once it’s verified, find a way to send someone to sow discord between them and muddy the waters."

Chu Shunkang held grudges against the Miao and Li Families, and hearing the old man’s words, naturally, he didn’t oppose: "Alright, I’ll arrange for someone to investigate."

Before his eldest son left the room, Mr. Chu turned: "If you still can’t find anyone, let Runchen hire a private investigator, after all, they just do things for money and won’t affect us."

Chu Shunkang understood his father’s intentions; indeed, they couldn’t drag it on too long. Otherwise, who knows if someone else might get the upper hand and whoever finds the Gu Family first could become the winner."

As for why they didn’t prioritize Gu Wanqing, it was because they believed Mr. Gu wouldn’t reveal such an important matter to his daughter early on.

After all, the second child of the Gu Family is merely missing, such an important secret couldn’t possibly be passed down to a married daughter.

Even if it were passed on, it wouldn’t be now, perhaps not until on their deathbed.

Moreover, ever since Gu Wanqing returned home, she was well-protected by Han Jingchen, and for the moment, they didn’t want to confront the Han Family.

It is said that ever since old Mr. Han passed, the Han Family seemingly declined, but the foundation of the Han Family still remains.

Old Mr. Han was a man of justice; during his life, he helped many people. He believes that as long as the descendants of the Han Family stand up, those people will not stand by and do nothing.

Therefore, what they seek shouldn’t be brought to light unless absolutely necessary.

On the other hand, Xinyan had also made thorough preparations.

That day, many neighbors came over to the small courtyard of the Zhang Family to chat, Xinyan moved a ladder and climbed to the kitchen roof to dry the grains.

She originally intended to put on a show, but an accident happened. A few mischievous young boys from a neighbor’s house tied a dog to the ladder.

The young children were very playful, teasing the dog with food in hand.

As a result, the dog, desperate to catch the food on the ground, pulled forward with all its might, causing the ladder to slip, and Xinyan, who was just stepping halfway up without being fully prepared, fell along with it.

Fortunately, she was agile, although her ankle was injured due to uneven force, it quickly swelled up, so there was no need to intentionally create trouble.

Upon receiving the call, Han Jingchen thought it was according to the original plan, so although both of them appeared anxious, it was actually a show for the families to watch.

Han Jingchen and Gu Wanqing hurried out of the Capital, heading straight for East Province.

They traveled all the way and by the time they arrived at the Zhang Family, it was already evening.

The old couple of the Gu family were only moved to tears when they first saw their daughter, but after the reunion with their daughter, they both turned their gaze to the son-in-law they hadn’t seen in years.

Tao Shuqing, with tears streaming down her face, hit Han Jingchen’s arm: "Finally, we’ve seen each other."

After they vented their emotions, Zhang Yueshan finally said, "They traveled all day, they must not have eaten well, let’s chat over a meal."

Only then did Tao Shuqing remember her daughter is pregnant and couldn’t afford to skip meals, so she quickly wiped her tears and invited them to sit down.

Talking over the phone was one thing, but seeing someone in person was another, after all, Han Jingchen had waited for his daughter for so many years. The struggle was real for both of them, and those who caused this outcome still won’t spare them now.

Thinking about this, a wave of sadness surged in the heart.

Han Jingchen naturally understood what his mother-in-law was thinking: "Mom, it will all pass. Now that our family can reunite in the country, I am already very content.

As for those few families, rest assured, since they refuse to change their ways, I, as the son-in-law, will not let them go either. One day, I will make them pay blood for blood."

At this time, father-in-law Gu Yiwen spoke up: "I know your intent, but everything has to be for your safety first."

Han Jingchen nodded and said, "I understand."
