Chapter 205 Conversation
"So, the situation of the Yan family isn't very optimistic."

Unlike his parents, who had only a vague understanding of these things, Zhang Qi was particularly sensitive due to the nature of his work, and his worries were naturally much deeper than theirs.

They only considered the young man from Yanbei's character and family background.

He was considering the influence of the Yan family on Ningning; if they got married…

"Don't worry, big brother."

How can I not worry?

Zhang Qi shook his head in exasperation. This girl is so outstanding, what kind of boyfriend couldn't she find? Why did she have to pick such a hot potato!
"Because of Grandpa Su, no one in the team has paid much attention to the people in the cowshed. Now, apart from him, no one knows about Yanbei's relationship with the two old men."

"Perhaps it won't be long before Yanbei is released from re-education and transferred back to the research team. Although he will most likely be on the periphery and unable to enter the core due to his status, his situation will be much better than it is now."

"Even if we succeed in bringing back the surveillance cameras, there will only be more, not fewer, eyes watching. Ningning, have you really thought this through?"

From the bottom of his heart, Zhang Qi really didn't want her to get caught up in this mess.

However, upon seeing the earnest look in her eyes, he couldn't help but sigh.

Well, everyone has their own considerations and plans. Ningning isn't stupid; on the contrary, she's the most intelligent girl he knows.

He must have already anticipated the situation and the troubles he mentioned, but the fact that he still decided to choose this person shows that he truly likes him, to the point of being fearless.

As the eldest brother, all he can do is offer his support and do his utmost to help in any way that may be needed in the future.

"From what you two are saying, it sounds like there's some danger in Ningning's boyfriend."

Hu Yingtao tightened her grip on her hand. Wasn't it said that the Yan family's case hadn't really been classified?

Although he was sent to the countryside for reform, the only definite label attached to him was his overseas connections; he wasn't a left-wing or right-wing figure, nor was he a true traitor...

"Ningning, how about we think about it again?"

Even if this young man is a good person, it's not worth risking your life to talk to him.

"What my godmother and brother mean is not that there is any real danger, but... if I marry Yanbei in the future, I'm afraid I will become someone that others avoid like the plague, and I won't be able to deal with people normally anymore."

"What do you mean by avoiding me like the plague? No matter how your status changes, you'll always be my precious treasure!"

"Auntie is also a treasure in Xiao Qiu's heart! A precious baby!"

"Haha~"

“Ningning, your older brother and godmother have said everything they need to say, and your godfather won’t say anything more. As long as you’ve thought it through, we will support you and believe in you.”

Zhang Fuben planned to visit the place where Nannan had lived after escaping, but after dealing with that person, he wouldn't linger to avoid being saddened by the sight.

However, it seems they still need to go to the Red Flag Commune where Ningning is currently staying. They need to meet the young man named Yan Bei in person, and get to know the two elders of the Yan family so that they can truly feel at ease about the Yan family's character.

"Thank you, godfather, godmother, and big brother, and oh, and our lovely Xiao Qiu."

Faced with the concerned faces before him, Su Ning's eyes reddened slightly with emotion, and he could only nod vigorously with a smile.

She took a sip of hot tea to suppress the warmth in her eyes, and after a while, she gathered her thoughts and turned the topic back to the important matter at hand.

Based on the names she uttered on her deathbed, she had secretly asked Brother Zhang to inquire about them.

However, Xiao Qiu was there because she was afraid of alerting the enemy, so they didn't go too far.

After seeing Xiao Qiu off from Shanghai, I continued to dig deeper and learn more.

Wei Junjie, Wei Kun's only son.

More than ten years ago, Wei Junjie married Yin Zhen, the famous daughter of the Yin family in Gushi. The couple tacitly maintained only a superficial relationship, while in private they each indulged in more extravagant ways than the other.

To protect her daughter, Zhang Qin was willing to debase herself to the dust.

If they hadn't been so obedient and tried so hard to please others, they wouldn't have had the chance to escape successfully later.

When Su Ning learned about these things, she couldn't help but admire Zhang Qin's indomitable spirit once again, and felt deeply saddened and pained that such a good woman had suffered so much torment.

Her injuries had accumulated over time, but death had long been the only relief in her heart.

So when she saw Su Ning and knew her daughter had been entrusted to someone, she didn't struggle anymore, even though she missed her family so much. "My poor little girl..."

She pounded her chest hard, but it did nothing to ease the pain inside. Whenever Hu Yingtao thought of her daughter being humiliated day and night and having to endure it, her heart felt like it was being torn apart.

Even Zhang Fu and Zhang Qi, who had prepared themselves mentally, couldn't help but burst into tears and feel utterly heartbroken upon hearing this concise and obviously exaggerated account.

Because they knew that the real suffering she had endured was no less than what she had suffered, and that just the thought of it made breathing painful.

"That beast, isn't there anyone with the guts to stand up and kill him?!"

"He is very cunning. He chooses people who have no family background or even no ability to resist, such as the elderly, weak, sick and disabled. These people, on the contrary, become the biggest obstacle for the victims who dare not resist."

Even if someone has the guts and the will to resist, it can be resolved with a simple physical confrontation, without any lingering consequences.

This is also why he is so cautious and careful. That's why he is still alive and well after all these years, and even dares to go out and wander around without fear of retaliation.

"Ningning, I need his exact address."

Wiping away his tears, Zhang Qi clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with the gloom before a storm.

"Brother, I know what you're thinking, but you can't act impulsively."

Wei Junjie is easy to deal with; his body, weakened by alcohol and women, can be killed by anyone with a bit of strength.

They have elderly parents and young children to support; it's not worth dragging their whole family down with such a scumbag.

If you're going to make a move, you have to crush him completely; you can't give him even the slightest chance to retaliate.

"Aqi, listen to Ningning."

After several breaths in and out, he barely managed to suppress the metallic taste that was on his lips. Zhang Fu then pressed down on his shoulder.

When the father learned all this, he wanted to take a knife and kill this beastly bastard!

But they had to consider that Ningning still had to live here, and there was also young Xiao Qiu.

……

Zhang Fu and Hu Yingtao are not young, and they had worried about their daughter in their younger years, which ruined their health. After such a long train journey and hearing these things, it was inevitable that their emotions would fluctuate, causing their bodies to be unable to withstand it for a while.

It took almost coaxing to get the two adults and one child to go to bed.

To ensure they could get a good rest, Su Ning even prepared some calming herbal soup for them to drink a large bowl before bed.

Once they were sure that all three of them had fallen into a deep sleep, they quietly left the room and sat down again on the long corridor under the eaves of the courtyard.

"Ningning, is something on your mind?"

I took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. Although my heart was still unsettled, I was at least able to control my emotions.

Zhang Qi looked at her face, trying his best to regain his usual composure.

“I have a very good relationship with the Luo family, and since I’ve decided to take down the Wei family and leverage their influence, it’s a must.”

"It's still early. I'll take you to their house after Uncle Luo and the others get off work and go home."

"Ningning, thank you."

"Brother, we're family, so let's not talk like that."

"Okay, don't tell me."

Aside from this, which Su Ning didn't tell Zhang Qi, she actually had another plan.

That means meeting with Wei Junjie and his wife, or with Wei Yin and his wife, or even more than just meeting them; it would require finding a way to have a brief encounter.

Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

Because she didn't believe that someone who had done so many bad things would escape retribution in the future.

Whenever trouble arises, anyone who manages to get close to her will surely uncover many secrets of both families.

Moving between two places would undoubtedly be much easier.
