Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart

Chapter 315: Anticipation

When Duan Yunfei returned, it was already near evening.Shen Qinglan was leaning against the headboard, lost in thought. She only snapped out of it when she heard the noise.

"You’re back?" she asked with a smile. "Have you eaten?"

Duan Yunfei sighed softly, came forward to sit on the couch, gently embraced her and said with a smile, "I’ve suddenly started looking forward to the days ahead."

"Hmm?" Shen Qinglan sat up from his embrace and looked at him in confusion.

"Ever since I met you, I’ve constantly been imagining days like this," Duan Yunfei said with a smile in his eyes, "just like this, upon returning from a long journey, hearing your gentle greeting, all the fatigue would vanish into thin air!"

Shen Qinglan was slightly taken aback, then smiled silently, "I heard, Feng Wuya came looking for you?"

"Yes!" Duan Yunfei said, "He said he’s already found out who the arsonist was back then."

Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "Chen Qi?"

"Yes." Duan Yunfei said, "As expected."

"Did he come to you to discuss revenge?"

"You really don’t miss anything!" Duan Yunfei sighed lightly, "Yes, he came to discuss the revenge plan with me."

"What did you say?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Duan Yunfei said coldly, "Of course, we must plan this carefully. The grudge of Chen Qi injuring my father with the Thirteen Shadow Guards back then, I must avenge it!"

Shen Qinglan looked at him, paused for a moment, then asked, "So what strategy did you come up with?"

"Chen Qi still thinks brother-in-law is his son," Duan Yunfei said, "Brother-in-law wants to use this relationship to get close to Chen Qi and then kill him in secret, but I refused."

Shen Qinglan understood.

Duan Yunfei didn’t want Feng Wuya to take such a risk. If it succeeded, that would be fine, but if it failed, the people of Haoyue Manor are not to be underestimated.

If something happened to Feng Wuya, not to mention how Duan Yunxia would react, Duan Nian would certainly be very upset, after all, he is the only person related to Xiao Wu.

If he can’t even protect one person, he would probably be very self-critical, wouldn’t he?

Shen Qinglan sighed lightly, "Then what do you plan to do?"

"Currently, Chen Qi still doesn’t know his real identity," Duan Yunfei said, "According to the information Qian San received, it seems Huang Shu also believes brother-in-law is Chen Qi’s child."

"It’s one thing for Chen Qi not to know, but how does Huang Shu not know either?" Shen Qinglan was somewhat puzzled.

Back then, it was clearly Huang Shu who ordered someone to drug Lady Xu. How could Huang Shu not know whether the child was lost or not?

Duan Yunfei speculated, "The only possibility is that perhaps Huang Shu only gave the order back then but didn’t witness it personally."

Shen Qinglan frowned, "Since they were the people she ordered, they must be her trusted aides. Didn’t those people tell her?"

"It’s also possible that she was guilty and nervous, dealt with the people, or had already sent them away from Haoyue Manor?" Duan Yunfei said, "It’s already been twenty years. Even if she wanted to ask around, she probably wouldn’t know where to start looking."

Shen Qinglan nodded thoughtfully, only in this way, did the matter make sense.

"Are you planning to approach it from this angle?"

Duan Yunfei nodded, "That’s right. When Qian San sneaked into Haoyue Manor, he accidentally overheard a conversation between Chen Qi and Huang Shu. According to him, Chen Qi seems inclined to let brother-in-law inherit the position of manor owner, but Huang Shu opposed it, and they argued about it later."

"This Chen Qi... why would he want Feng Wuya to inherit the position of manor owner?" Shen Qinglan was puzzled.

From what she understood, Chen Qi didn’t seem like someone who would hold onto old sentiments.
