Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.
Chapter 457 tricked me again.
Chapter 457 tricked me again.
It's no wonder Du Anrao overthinks things; it's just that every time there's a big scandal, Xi Jingyue's timing is always perfect, as if he knew in advance where the scandal was coming from.
To be honest, the reason I was able to get in touch with Brother Li in the first place was because of Mr. Xi. Back then, I was just a novice charlatan, but he seemed to already believe in me a lot...
There are many more such coincidences. Du Anrao hadn't thought much about them before, but now that he had learned from his previous experience, he looked back inch by inch and found that the coincidences he encountered with Xi Jingyue were actually the most numerous!
Most importantly, not long ago, the other party personally brought her back, and every word he said hit the nail on the head regarding what she was curious about, as if he knew in advance what she was curious about and what she wanted to hear.
In the past, Du Anrao might have thought that someone was understanding, but now he only felt that the other party had come prepared.
Du Anrao thought for a while, then suddenly realized something, turned around and looked at the people behind him, and met the strangely solemn expressions of his family members.
Du Anrao: "..." Mr. Xi, I'm sorry, I seem to have accidentally tricked you again!
No, why did I say "again"?
In any case, this confession session, with the inexplicable involvement of Xi Jingyue, an outsider, finally came to a peaceful end.
Because the program was abruptly canceled, the originally planned three-day trip was interrupted, and they had to return after recording for less than two days.
The Du Anrao siblings were delayed by the sudden arrival of the Du family, so they decided to stay an extra day as originally planned.
Of the other guests, apart from Yu Zhaojun, who is probably not going to make it, half of them left on the night of the incident.
“The Duan father and son booked plane tickets home right after you left.” Liang Wanjuan said, leaning closer to Du Anrao and lowering his voice, “They left after taking a private phone call. I was nearby at the time and listened carefully for a while. It seems to be related to the woman you mentioned.”
Du Anrao raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "That woman? His good brother's...wife?"
"That's right, it's her! That woman probably saw what you said to President Duan that night, realized she'd been exposed, and tried to run away with her daughter and money, but was caught on the spot by the people President Duan sent to keep an eye on her. Now, there's no need to investigate, it's just a self-incriminating confession. I heard from President Duan that he's in a hurry to take his son back to settle accounts with that woman and her daughter."
Liang Wanjuan said with a slight sigh, "I've been deceived for so long, and so badly. Even my only son was almost driven away by an outsider. I'm afraid President Duan won't let this go so easily."
Unfortunately, he and President Duan don't have a deep personal relationship, so this gossip will probably have to end here, and we won't be able to finish it.
As a seasoned gossipmonger, Du Anrao immediately understood Liang Wanjuan's unfinished meaning. His gaze towards the other party was rather indescribable, as if to say: I didn't expect you to be such a gossipy person.
Liang Wanjuan shuddered, afraid of leaving an unreliable impression in someone's eyes, and hurriedly tried to save face, saying, "It's not that I deliberately spied on other people's privacy. It's just that we happened to be close at the time and that's how we overheard it."
Du Anrao: "..." Do I look like I believe you?
"Mr. Tao has left too?"
“Yes.” Chen Yefang and Tao Sigu work in the same company and are fairly familiar with each other. The production team arranged for them to stay at the same hotel for the show, so she naturally knows more about his family.
"He originally intended to stay and say goodbye to Miss Du before leaving, but unexpectedly, he received a call last night saying that his wife had suddenly fainted for some reason. He was so frightened that he didn't even have time to book a plane ticket and drove off with the children." Du Anrao was not surprised by this. When he looked at Tao Sigu's face that night, he noticed that his fertility palace was slightly moving and he could vaguely see some traces.
Simply put, his wife is pregnant with their second child, and he's going to be a father again!
"His wife is fine, and there's a high chance they'll have double happiness."
If Du Anrao's reading is correct, his wife is most likely pregnant with twins again, and combined with his previous child, his family will have three kids...
Hopefully, Mr. Tao can overcome the current downturn in his career and start afresh, otherwise raising so many children will be very difficult.
Chen Yefang was taken aback when she heard Du Anrao say that, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the incident involving the Tao Si Gu family reminded Du Anrao of Liang Wanjuan, whose family had also encountered trouble: "Brother Liang, aren't you in a hurry to go home?"
Not only were they not in a hurry to go back, but another person even came.
"This is...your sister-in-law?"
Liang Wanjuan's wife was a beautiful woman with a great temperament. She wore a white dress, had neat short hair, a gentle expression, and delicate features, just like the graceful and elegant beauties from the water towns in ancient poets' paintings.
Upon hearing Du Anrao mention her, Madam Liang took her daughter's hand and stepped forward to greet her.
"Hello, Ms. Du, I am Juan's wife and Qiuqiu's mother. I am very grateful for your care of my husband and child these past few days, and I especially thank you for what you said to my husband that night."
Madam Liang glanced helplessly at her husband and sighed, “My husband and my father-in-law have a long-standing grudge. It’s not a big deal, just a difference of opinion. If we talked it out, it would be fine. What kind of grudge can a father and son hold overnight? But they are both stubborn, and neither of them is willing to be the first to back down and give an out. No amount of persuasion can work. As time went on, it became a stalemate, and it has been going on for more than ten years.”
Mrs. Liang felt utterly exhausted as she thought about all the effort she had put into mediating between her and her mother-in-law over the years.
"It's fortunate that he came to this program, and it's also fortunate that he met you. After your guidance that night, the relationship between the father and son has finally cleared up and the ice has melted. I came here on behalf of my mother-in-law to thank you for your help to the father and son and our family."
“Sister-in-law, you’re too kind. As you said, there’s no such thing as a father and son holding a grudge overnight. In the end, Brother Liang and his father just have some misunderstandings. They still care about each other. Otherwise, even if I explained it to them, Brother Liang wouldn’t listen.”
That's certainly the logic, but what Du Anrao said that day was equally crucial in breaking the deadlock between the father and son.
Madam Liang wanted to express her gratitude further, hoping to also get closer to Du Anrao.
Unexpectedly, Du Anrao only glanced at her with a faint smile, as if he had seen through her true intentions, and then turned his gaze to the little girl beside her.
"My sister-in-law came all this way, it can't be just to thank me, right?"
