“Okay.” Qu Yaohui had just answered when the phone rang.
Hearing the phone ring, everyone from the Qu family looked at each other. For a moment, no one stood up to answer the phone. In the end, it was Madam Qu, who was closest to the phone, who picked up the phone.
“Hello, this is the Qu family. May I know who you are looking for?”
“Grandma, it’s me, Meng’er.”
“Meng’er, why are you calling so early? Have you had breakfast?” When Madam Qu heard that it was her granddaughter who called, she was in the mood to chat.
Before Chen Meng’er could answer, when he heard that it was Chen Meng’er who called, Elder Qu threw down the newspaper in his hand and came over. He snatched the phone from his wife’s hand.
“Hey, what are you doing? I haven’t finished talking to Meng’er.”
“What are you talking about? Meng’er called at this time. She must have something important to tell me.” Although Elder Qu was old, his reflexes were not bad. “Meng’er, are you calling at this time because of the newspaper headlines?” Elder Qu said into the phone.
“Yes, it looks like you’ve seen today’s news.”
“Yes, I just saw it. I didn’t expect the Han family to be so greedy. I didn’t want to pursue the matter of them kidnapping Haoxiang, but they actually wanted to destroy the Qu family and your uncle.” Elder Qu snorted coldly.
“It’s not that easy to destroy the Qu family. Grandpa, I’m calling to ask if this report about my uncle’s private life is true?” Chen Meng’er would never beat around the bush in front of her family. She went straight to the point.
“Ahem, there is indeed such a person, but the matter is not like what the report said. Girl, you are in the Green Gang, right?” Elder Qu was a little embarrassed to talk about his son’s private matters.
“Yes, I am.”
“Then I will come over with your uncle in a while. Let your uncle tell you about this matter himself. Coincidentally, I am also here to discuss with you and your other grandfather about how to handle this matter.” This report was targeted at the Qu family and Qu Yaotian, however, it also involved Chen Meng’er and the Green Gang.
When the time came, he would have to explain it clearly. It would definitely involve Chen Meng’er and the Green Gang.
“Alright, come over. I’ll wait for you here.”
Chen Meng’er hung up the phone. Elder Liu asked impatiently, “Girl, what did your other grandfather say? Is this report true?” At this moment, Elder Liu had the air of a gossipy old man.
“It’s hard to say. In a while, my other grandfather and my uncle will come over. Grandpa, you can ask them yourself.” Chen Meng’er said this, but after hearing what Elder Qu said, she had a rough idea in her heart. Most of the reports were fake. Otherwise, Elder Qu would not be able to sit still.

Chen Meng’er did not expect that the Qu family would be so well-rounded this time.
Even Cao Feiying, who usually did not like her, actually came to the Green Gang with them.
“Elder Liu, this time, because of the Qu family’s matter, the Green Gang is involved. I’m really sorry.” Elder Qu changed his usual with Elder Liu. The moment he saw Elder Liu, he greeted Elder Liu.
“Elder Qu, if you say that, you’re treating me as a stranger. Moreover, I’ve already left this Green Gang to Meng’er. She’s the one who’s worried about these troublesome matters.” Towards people whom he acknowledged, Elder Liu was very courteous. “Elder Qu, have you thought of a way to resolve this matter? If this matter isn’t resolved properly, it will have a huge impact on the Qu family and Qu Yaotian.” Elder Liu treated Elder Qu as one of his own people, that was why he spoke so sincerely.
“I do have some confidence in this matter, but I might need Meng’er’s help.” Elder Qu had always felt that he owed Chen Meng’er a lot. Previously, because of their negligence, he had made her leave their side for so many years, causing her to suffer a lot since she was young. And after they found her, they wanted to make it up to her properly. However, it had been such a long time, how could they make it up to her? It had always been Chen Meng’er helping their family.
The Qu family relied on Chen Meng’er and had benefited so much. As for the Qu family, there were still some people whose eyes were clouded and could not see the truth clearly. They had always thought that Chen Meng’er had ulterior motives and had come to fight with them for the Qu family’s estate.
Thinking of this, Elder Qu sighed in his heart. Those people in the family really did not understand the situation. Chen Meng’er was already rich and powerful. How could Chen Meng’er still take a fancy to the Qu family’s things?
“Look at what you’re saying. Meng’er is your granddaughter, a member of the Qu family. It’s only right for her to help her family. Moreover, I see that she has been very bored recently. It’s just right that this matter can let her relieve her boredom.”
When Chen Meng’er heard Elder Liu’s words, she frowned. She did not know when the relationship between her two grandfathers had become so good.
“Grandpa, we are all family. Don’t say those words. I just want to ask about one thing,” Chen Meng’er said.
“What is it?”
Chen Meng’er turned her head to Qu Yaotian, who looked exhausted. “Uncle, is the content written in that report true?”
On the way here, Elder Qu had already informed Qu Yaotian in advance. At this moment, he did not immediately answer Chen Meng’er’s question. He pinched his brows. Yesterday, Qu Yaotian did not sleep for an entire night because of Han Ying’s matter. Although he was determined to divorce Han Ying, they had been married for so many years after all. If he wanted to divorce Han Ying, he would not be able to feel good about it.
He had yet to adjust his state of mind. Early in the morning, he was angered by the newspaper his secretary brought to him. He almost smashed a hole in his office desk. What was Han Ying trying to do? Was she trying to destroy him? He once again witnessed the ruthlessness of Han Ying. He was ashamed of his weakness.
