Chapter 189
Chapter 189: Then You Really Haven’t Seen Much
To avoid being beaten to death by his good brother later, Jiang Chang Bin felt he had to make up for it: “Qing Ting did try to force it out of them, but they both insisted there was no such person.”
[Oh. So in the end, his ability is still not that great.]
Jiang Chang Bin: “…” Why did it feel like the more he explained, the worse it sounded?
But Du An Rao was also puzzled. Normally, once they had been caught, shouldn’t they sell out the other person and try to get on the good side of the Yu siblings, hoping to make up for their mistakes so they wouldn’t be destroyed? Why were those two suddenly so loyal?
But then she thought it over and suddenly understood.
[Could it be…]
The Jiang Family: Hm?
[If that’s really the case, then those two really have their eyes glued to money.]
According to Du An Rao’s guess, the mastermind behind this was Yu Chu Hui’s half sister. By chance, she found out the secret that her sister’s boyfriend was gay and had already been tangled up with another man for a long time.
She used this secret to threaten Qiu Tian Li, telling him to work with her to set Yu Chu Hui up. They would first get a big sum of money out of it, then release the photos and ruin her reputation.
At the start, Qiu Tian Li and his lover’s plan was not just about money. So they were very unhappy about how the result had turned out so much weaker. But since the person holding the leverage was her, if Yu Chu Hui learned the truth, the two scumbags would not even get that last bit of money. They had no choice but to agree.
But now things were different. Younger Sister Yu’s leverage had been exposed early, so it no longer counted as leverage.
Instead, the fact that she had threatened Qiu Tian Li and told him to help her set Yu Chu Hui up had become something he could use to control her.
[If I guessed right, as long as Younger Sister Yu had even a little sense, she would not have left any trace of her contact with Qiu Tian Li online. She would choose to meet him face to face instead. But as long as Qiu Tian Li had even half a brain, he would know this was illegal. He would definitely keep some evidence to guard against her dumping all the blame on him once things went wrong. So he might have a recording or video of their secret meeting.]
The Jiang Family members looked at each other and saw the same shock in one another’s eyes.
Jiang You Nian’s thoughts jumped a little: just how many palace drama and inner court scheming stories had their little cousin read, to think of all this so smoothly and completely figure out what these people were thinking?
[They were just temporary partners joining hands to do something bad. Both sides were holding dirt on each other. Now that the scumbag’s leverage is gone, the balance is broken. He is probably planning to use the dirt he has on Younger Sister Yu to turn around and threaten her, and squeeze the money they originally planned to cheat out of Sister Yu from her instead. Dog biting dog, a mouth full of fur. Classic, really classic.]
The Jiang Family: “!!!” They did not know that kind of operation was possible.
Once you understand what these people are thinking, it becomes easy to predict their next move.
[This sister of Sister Yu probably won’t give up her plan so easily. Now that the scumbag route is blocked, she will likely act herself or pay someone else to do it. I have to warn them.]
Jiang Chang Bin’s expression turned serious. In fact, after the truth about the boyfriend came out, even though Yu Qing Ting did not want to doubt his own mother and sister emotionally, reason still told him to go home and get a paternity test done.
Now he was testing Du An Rao like this because he wanted to see if there were any pieces of gossip they had missed.
“Um…” Du An Rao cleared her throat. “That day Sister Yu was there, and some things were not convenient for me to say. After all, it was our first time meeting. If I said too much, I might not actually help and might even become her enemy. But today everyone here is family, so I’ll be direct.”
“Yes, yes.” As soon as she finished, Madam Jiang rushed to support her: “There are no outsiders here, all are our own brothers. Don’t be afraid, just say it. We believe you.”
“Mom is right, just say it.”
“That day I looked at Sister Yu’s physiognomy,” Du An Rao said, “and saw that her eyebrows are tangled and knotted. This means there will be trouble with people of her generation in her family. In other words, she is very likely to be stabbed in the back by a relative soon. That relative is most likely a brother or sister of the same generation, but… there should be something a bit different about their blood relationship.”
“Different? What kind of difference?”
“Either same father but different mother, or same mother but different father.”
“What?”
The Jiang Family all put on shocked faces at the right time and turned to look at Jiang Chang Bin.
He was silent for a moment, then used the excuse he had already prepared: “They are dragon-phoenix twins, so that shouldn’t be it.”
Du An Rao stared at him for a long time, making him think that he had acted too stiffly or too dramatically and that his cousin had already seen through him. Just when he thought his performance had flopped, he heard something that completely stunned him.
[Then you really haven’t seen much. There are twins who don’t have the same father.]
Jiang Chang Bin: “??!” Uh… he really had been ignorant.
[But she and her brother really do have the same father and mother.]
Jiang Chang Bin: “…” That scared him to death. He thought he was going to end up eating melon about his own brothers.
Du An Rao did not know about his emotional roller coaster. She decisively avoided this topic and followed up: “Other than her brother, she doesn’t have any other brothers or sisters?”
“She has one sister.”
“Sister.” Du An Rao touched her chin and thought for a moment. “Brother, do you have her photo or video? A video would be better. Something recent and clear.”
Of course, Jiang Chang Bin did not have that, but Yu Qing Ting did.
He called Yu Qing Ting right away and asked him to send over a video of Yu Ya Qi.
It was taken not long ago at Yu Chu Hui’s birthday. In the video, the Yu Family sister had a head of pretty curls, pinned with a simple and delicate oleander gem hair clip. She looked pure and harmless.
But when Du An Rao zoomed in, she noticed that this girl’s eyebrows were much thinner than Yu Chu Hui’s and had clearly been groomed on purpose.
People from rich families really did have better camera quality. After zooming in as much as possible, Du An Rao found that Younger Sister Yu’s eyebrows were actually broken in places. She probably thought they looked ugly, so she had plucked out a large part and then drawn the brow line back in.
The new brows made her eyes and brows look much softer and covered up the bold calculation in her gaze. But no matter how good the mask, it could not hide a person’s nature forever.
After watching for a while, Du An Rao found another difference between Yu Ya Qi and the brother and sister. Her nose bridge was thin and sharp with almost no flesh. It looked tall but was so narrow that it stuck out. It was completely different from the fleshy, slightly flat, very lucky-looking big noses of the Yu siblings and Father Yu.
Looking again, Mother Yu’s nose did not look like that either. Most likely Yu Ya Qi had taken after her biological father.
After carefully studying Yu Ya Qi’s physiognomy, Du An Rao finally understood why she held such deep hostility toward her real sister.
[So that’s it! No wonder she tried every possible way to ruin Sister Yu’s purity. Her biological father actually wanted to sell her to some old man in his seventies or eighties.]
The Jiang Family: “??!”
