Chapter 290 Hand over Jiang Yonghe
Jiang Youli's words caused Qi Huan's pupils to dilate slightly. He couldn't wait to reach out and take the document from Jiang Youli's hand.
When his gaze fell on the photo of Zhou Zerui at the top, his pupils dilated sharply, as if struck by an invisible force.
At first glance, Zhou Zerui's facial features do not resemble Qi Huan's in the photo.
However, when Qi Huan's gaze focused on his eyebrows and eyes, a strange feeling welled up in her heart.
Their eyebrows and eyes bore a subtle resemblance to Qi Huan's.
Jiang Youli noticed Qi Huan's reaction and asked softly, "Do you think his features are somewhat similar to yours?"
Qi Huan nodded slightly and responded in agreement.
Then, his attention was completely drawn to Zhou Zerui's information, and he began to read it word by word, afraid of missing any detail.
It's the same year his brother was born.
He was only a month older than his younger brother.
But the day my younger brother was sent away was when he was a month old. Perhaps the person who rescued him deliberately made that day his birthday.
That makes sense!
This is the first time Qi Huan has felt that the person named Zhou Zerui in the current information might be his younger brother, after Cheng Jing has been investigating and searching for him for so long!
The excitement made his fingers tremble slightly.
After reviewing the information, Qi Huan finally calmed down. He looked at Jiang Youli and said gently, "Little Li'er, I'll go with you to see Zhou Zerui tomorrow. Today, I'll have Cheng Jing keep watch near his house."
As he spoke, Cheng Jing stepped forward, took the documents handed to him by Qi Huan, understood, turned around and left the office, and personally led a group of people to keep watch near Zhou Zerui's house.
The office door closed, and Qi Huan extended her hand to Jiang Youli, "Little Li'er."
Jiang Youli hesitated for a moment, then reached out her hand.
Qi Huan grabbed her hand and whispered, "If this Zhou Zerui is really my younger brother, Xiao Li'er, I don't know how I can repay you."
Jiang Youli laughed and said, "Haven't you already given yourself to me?"
Qi Huan held her hand tightly and said, "Offering myself to you is only a way of repaying you for healing my leg. You've helped me so much."
"Life is so long. I'm helping you now, but who knows if I'll need your help in the future? Don't overthink it. I'm helping you not so that you can repay me, but because I'm willing to help you." Jiang Youli never had so many concerns.
If she likes someone, she'll give her all; if they betray her, she'll take everything back. At least, she enjoys the process.
Qi Huan brought her hand to his lips and kissed it gently. "Little Li'er, perhaps the only thing I can do for you now is to ensure that you never regret agreeing to the marriage alliance and being with me."
"Huanhuan, I believe in you now."
At this moment, Jiang Youli had no doubt about Qi Huan's sincerity towards her, but sincerity is fickle. Even if Qi Huan really liked her now, it wouldn't stop him from potentially betraying her in the future.
But it doesn't matter, Jiang Youli is very confident in herself, so she is not afraid of any sunk costs at all.
For her, giving her up would only be Qi Huan's loss!
Qi Huan's eyes flickered slightly, but should she believe him now?
It means that I might not believe it in the future.
Qi Huan was not discouraged. It was alright; he would use his actions to ensure that Xiao Li'er would always trust him.
……
After leaving the Qi Group, Jiang Youli drove away. In the back seat, Aunt Ya, whose hands and feet were tied, looked terrified.
“Miss Jiang, I know you have a grudge against Long Yuan. If you let me go, I will tell you all the secrets of the socialite training institution!” Aunt Ya said in a trembling voice.
Jiang Youli's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile: "What other secrets do you have? It's nothing more than you luring innocent girls into your organization and then handing them over to some big shots in the upper circles, in order to gain benefits for Longyuan."
Aunt Ya's expression changed, but she still forced herself to say, "Yes, that's exactly right. But even if these things are exposed, at most they can only push me out as a scapegoat. They can't drag Long Yuan down with them at all. Miss Jiang, I know you have a grudge against Long Yuan and want to deal with him, right?"
Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow, not surprised by Aunt Ya's words. She chuckled and said, "Oh? So you have substantial evidence to expose Long Yuan?"
Aunt Ya hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said, "I do know one of his secrets, but only if you promise to let me go."
A hint of mockery flashed in Jiang Youli's eyes as she said unhurriedly, "Tell me. If this secret is really useful, I might consider letting you go."
Aunt Ya had no other choice but to tell the truth in order to save her life: "Long Yuan holds a masquerade party every year, called Secret Garden. He invites some big shots, but no one knows who they are except for Long Yuan and Old Madam Long."
Jiang Youli's eyes darkened. A secret party?
They couldn't find out anything about this Night Shadow either.
"Go on," Jiang Youli said, slowing down her driving slightly so she could listen more carefully to what Aunt Ya was about to say.
Seeing Jiang Youli's keen interest, Aunt Ya continued reassuringly, "The location of this secret party changes every year. In the past, it was held in some remote areas abroad. However, as far as I know, next year's party will likely be held on an island in China."
She paused briefly, then added, "Moreover, this party is usually held in April each year, and as is customary, there shouldn't be much change next year."
Jiang Youli nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "So, what are the requirements to attend this party?"
Aunt Ya explained, "To attend this party, you must have an invitation from Long Yuan. The truly important people naturally receive invitations personally from Long Yuan; while others gain their qualifications by doing some shady things for Long Yuan."
After a moment's thought, Jiang Youli continued, "Is that all?"
Aunt Ya quickly replied, "That's all I know. After all, our organization only handles some of Long Yuan's affairs. I'm not very clear about the Long family's other businesses and activities."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. Long Yuan gave Jiang Yonghe to me." Aunt Ya remembered that Jiang Yonghe was also Jiang Youli's enemy!
Jiang Youli scoffed, "Long Yuan made Jiang Yonghe work for you?"
Jiang Yonghe was once known as the most talented woman in Beijing's social circle. Long Yuan thought he could use her expertise to train those young girls who had been deceived.
"I know Jiang Yonghe has offended you, Miss Jiang. If you release me, I can hand Jiang Yonghe over to you to deal with!" Aunt Ya said with a fawning expression, as if she could immediately tie Jiang Yonghe up and send her to her if Jiang Youli nodded.
