After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 71: Choosing the Lesser of Two Evils
Chapter 71
ZhiXia seemed dizzy, but she was very clear and explained everything in great detail. She even gave suggestions to Liu Jun.
Liu Jun was eager to earn merit so he did not notice, but An ZhiAng who was on the side had a complicated expression.
Only after Liu Jun left with people to cooperate did ZhiXia pay attention to An ZhiAng.
"Fourth brother..." ZhiXia lowered her eyelids, not knowing how long An ZhiAng had been here listening, especially to what she said about HuangCui.
An ZhiAng was always impatient, but this time, unexpectedly, he did not think of getting to the bottom of it. Instead, he pulled ZhiXia and said, "Let's go home first."
Some things were not for them to get involved in.
Especially now, with An MeiYun added to the mix, it was possible their An family would be fully investigated. He had to go back and discuss with his family first.
ZhiXia looked at his expression and nodded, "Call uncle too."
"You wait here, I'll go," said An ZhiAng and walked back into the Lin house. But now, the lively Lin house for the wedding had become a different kind of lively.
ZhiXia knew clearly that as long as Liu Jun found evidence at HuangCui's place, An MeiYun could not easily get away even if she decisively divorced Lin Hao.
But this was not the end, it was a repositioning of her relationship with the An family.
But it didn't matter anymore.
She was just an ordinary person, she could not save anyone for a lifetime,
She had done her part, removing most of the threat from An MeiYun. Without the Lin family's backing, she was just an ordinary person.
Even if she had intended to harm the An family, the time, location, people were all not right.
Unless An JingZhi and Zhou Nan reconciled again and accepted her, with the An family's help, she might be able to prop up another Lin Hao.
If that really happened...
Ha!
ZhiXia sighed.
The most difficult people to save in this world are those who insist on courting death.
When An ZhiAng came out, he was dragging one hand each of two half-drunk uncles, with the frightened Wang Li following behind.
Perhaps because they were victims, as soon as Wang Li saw ZhiXia, she dropped the last pretenses of strength and ran over to hug ZhiXia, crying, "ZhiXia, An MeiYun is such a terrible person, do you know, they desperately got us drunk today, trying to get you to consummate with an idiot, seemingly to exchange for some benefit. After you left, they saw no hope in harming you, so they turned their attention to me. Fortunately you told me to pretend to pass out, if I really got drunk, I would not have come back today, wuwu..."
Hearing this, ZhiXia was not surprised at all. An ZhiAng also did not say a word, just unconsciously used more strength holding his two uncles' arms.
The big uncle yelped in pain, "What do we do now? I saw many soldiers rush in, the Lin house must be finished now. Not only did they hoard a lot of gold and silver, I saw them move out guns too!"
"Go home," said An ZhiAng. Then to Wang Li he said, "Comrade, you should go back too. Let me advise you, don't get involved in today's matters. No matter your relationship with An MeiYun, for your own good, keep your distance from now on."
"Okay, I understand," Wang Li nodded furiously. Without being told, she had seen An MeiYun's true colors today.
She was just an ordinary person, she would naturally avoid such a person.
The bicycle wheels spun madly as An ZhiAng carried ZhiXia, leaving the two uncles far behind.
Things had calmed down at home, only An JingZhi, Zhou Nan and mother-in-law Zhou were sitting in the yard talking, WenQing nestled obediently in Zhou Nan's arms.
After parking the bicycle against the wall, An ZhiAng went up to An JingZhi, "Dad, something happened."
An JingZhi's heart tightened, "What's the matter? Where are your two uncles?"
Zhou JianWen and Zhou JianYe stumbled in together, panting heavily.
An ZhiAng relayed what happened at the Lin house as fast as he could. Zhou Nan listened with great fear, reflexively asking, "With such things happening at the Lin house, why didn't you bring MeiYun back?"
When asking this, Zhou Nan looked at ZhiXia reflexively. Although ZhiXia's expression was still calm, she felt somewhat guilty in her heart.
An ZhiAng was even more angry, for the first time yelling at Zhou Nan, "An MeiYun, An MeiYun, she's all you care about. Do you know what An MeiYun did today?"
"Their table of men wanted to get ZhiXia and the other bride Wang Li drunk and take advantage of them. Fortunately the matter with the Lin house happened in between. Wang Li pretended to pass out halfway, and heard from An MeiYun's own mouth discussing this with the other men." As An ZhiAng spoke, his eyes welled up.
An JingZhi was very shocked, "ZhiAng, you're speaking the truth?"
It seemed everything was clear, An MeiYun's insistence for ZhiXia to be married came to mind repeatedly.
"If you don't believe me go ask Wang Li. She is An MeiYun's classmate, we only met today. She wouldn't lie for me and ZhiXia," said An ZhiAng. "The most serious thing now isn't this matter, but the things found when searching the Lin house. The gold, silver, jewels could be explained as ancestral heirlooms, but those guns aren't something ordinary families can get. As the Lin family's relative, dad should hurry and think of how to protect our own family!"
An ZhiAng had heard from grandma that they were a rich family before liberation, but it took a lot of effort for them to get two old rifles to protect the house.
What was the Lin family's background? If not for An MeiYun's marriage, they wouldn't even know the Lin family existed, how could they get so many guns? 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝖜𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝖒
It was still normal for ordinary families to have old rifles and hunting guns now, but large quantities were clearly abnormal.
"That's right, their family might...also have special agent connections," said An ZhiAng, giving ZhiXia a complicated look. He didn't know if ZhiXia was speaking the truth or just fabricating things to frame the Lin family, but it couldn't hurt to say it now.
If only they'd known earlier to be wary.
Even someone as experienced as An JingZhi couldn't help being frightened, swallowing and saying without hesitation, "ZhiAng, go to your grandpa immediately and explain everything clearly and in detail, not a single word less. I'll go to the news office to post an announcement right away..."
After so many years, An JingZhi still felt some heartache saying these words, "We have to make our stand clear. With the Lin family done for, put her registration in the Gao family. "
Choose the lesser of two harms. He couldn't put the whole family at risk for An MeiYun's sake.
Moreover, they had already decided to sever ties.
