Chapter 97 Grandfather's Last Wish

Upon hearing An Qing's introduction, An Min was slightly taken aback before she came to her senses.

She had indeed heard her mother mention that Andy On had a younger sister.

However, the younger sister has a more upright and unyielding personality, which is the complete opposite of Andy On's.

The two broke up for some unknown reason, and the aunt left home in a fit of anger and never came back.

"When I heard that an inspector was going to be sent over, I volunteered to sign up. I never expected to actually meet you here."

My aunt's attitude was very gentle.

However, An Min did not let her guard down. The An Zhijie family had hurt her too much, and she still couldn't trust the An family.

“I am aware of the situation and will report it to my superiors truthfully. As for how they investigate, that is none of my business.”

Just as the two were talking, there was a knock on the door, and Liang Yi's voice came through.

"I am Liang Yi."

Upon hearing Liang Yi's voice, Auntie raised her eyebrows slightly, crossed her arms, and looked quite relaxed.

"Is this your husband?"

"Yes, I got married here."

Anmin answered truthfully, and her aunt smiled and went over to open the door.

Liang Yi walked in a few steps, and upon seeing his aunt's uniform, he immediately gave a proper salute.

“Reporting to the Inspector, my wife has absolutely nothing to do with this. Jason is looking for her…”

Liang Yi was interrupted by his aunt before he could finish speaking.

“I’ve already found out everything. But your recklessness will be punished where I’m from.”

Upon hearing his aunt's words, Liang Yi's hand, which was hanging by his side, clenched slightly, as if he were very nervous.

"Liang Yi, this is my aunt."

Just then, An Min stood up and explained her aunt's identity to Liang Yi.

"Your aunt?"

Liang Yi was clearly also a bit confused.

But the woman in front of them nodded, glanced at the two of them, and then said to Anmin...

"You have much better taste in men than your mother. He's responsible, has a sense of duty, and is also quite good-looking."

After she finished speaking, Auntie got up and walked to the door.

"Let's go, let's not talk about it here."

The two followed their aunt out of the room. Liang Yi held An Min's hand tightly, as if he had a thousand questions to ask.

"I don't know either. I only know that my mother mentioned when I was little that my dad did have a younger sister, but she didn't get along with him."

If they really have a good relationship, given her current status, it shouldn't be a problem for her to get Andy On and Qian Xue out of the countryside.

However, seeing her aunt's state, An Min clearly didn't want to get involved in An Zhijie's troublesome affairs.

The three of them went to Liang Yi's office. Liang Yi went up, opened the door, and asked someone to make tea.

After everyone was seated, An Qing was the first to speak.

Her personality is indeed just as Anmin's mother described: frank, sincere, and straightforward.

Are your dad and the others still in Haicheng?

Her aunt asked, but Anmin shook her head. "No, they're in the countryside now."

"countryside?"

Aunt seemed quite surprised.

Although she hadn't seen him for decades, she knew her brother's character well. Why would he go to the countryside after enjoying so many good years?
Anmin didn't say much, but simply recounted the events that had happened over the years, including Qian Xueanlu's marriage fraud.

An Qing's expression also began to turn serious as An Min continued her narration.

“I knew he couldn’t do anything good. He even cheated his own daughter for that money. My dad was right.”

After calming herself down, Auntie slowly spoke.

"When your grandfather died, he said that your father's personality was not suitable for inheriting the family property, so the remaining money in the family was secretly transferred to me."

"He said that if your father has children in the future, he wants me to see the children, and if they are good, he will give them directly to his child."

“Your father has been a selfish person since you were a child. Your grandfather knows this best. Fortunately, your grandfather had planned ahead, otherwise he would have squandered the family’s little fortune long ago.”

After saying that, Auntie took a deep breath, took out a savings book from her pocket, and placed it in front of Anmin.

“I came here today specifically for this matter. I’ve been too lazy to deal with it for so many years because I didn’t want to face your father.”

Aunt knew very well that when she saw her brother, his first question would not be about how well she had been all these years, but rather about where the inheritance left by the old man had gone.

However, An Qing didn't expect that her brother was also quite lucky, as he actually met An Min's mother.

Looking at the passbook on the table, Anmin felt a surge of emotions, but she returned the passbook to her.

“I don’t want the things from the An family. Since they were left to me by my grandfather, I have the right to dispose of them. Now these things belong to my aunt.”

Anmin no longer wanted to have any connection with the An family.

This money was dispensable to her, since the inheritance her mother left her was enough to ensure she would live comfortably for several lifetimes.

Upon hearing Anmin's words, her aunt knew that Anmin had been heartbroken by the An family.

"No matter what, we're family. Since you've called me aunt, then I'm your family. If you ever need anything, you can come to me, and I'll definitely help if I can."

After saying that, Auntie got up to leave.

She came here for two reasons: one, about Jason's situation, and two, to return the passbook.

An Qing had kept the savings book in her hands for so many years, but she hadn't touched a single penny in it, intending to give it to An Min only after seeing her.

However, looking at Anmin's expression, he knew that Anmin would definitely not accept it.

"Auntie, are you leaving so soon? Why don't you stay in Baiyanggou a little longer?"

Anmin politely asked her to stay.

She hadn't expected An Qing to be so straightforward. When An Qing said she wanted to stay, she nodded and asked, "Is that alright? Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"

Liang Yi and An Min exchanged a glance, both showing a helpless smile.

"No trouble at all. If Auntie wants to stay here, I'll go and tidy up a room for you."

"That's good. It'll be a good opportunity for me to stay here for a few more days and take a break."

After saying that, the aunt's gaze fell on Anmin's stomach.

Anmin was radiating maternal love, and with her slightly protruding belly, her aunt, who had given birth before, knew perfectly well.

She stayed to see for her father whether the An family's descendants were living a good life.

Otherwise, her father wouldn't be at peace in the afterlife.

"Oh, by the way, could you find me a pen and paper? I need to write a letter to your dad."
