Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
As Zhang Xin listened to everyone else, he became somewhat convinced about joining in. After all, he did not want the Zhang family to be perceived as a scaredy cat. At the same time, he was interested in this hidden treasure as well.
“Alright, let’s change our plans and focus on the Goodman family instead,” Zhang Xin decided. For now, he was willing to delay dealing with Jian Yiling.
After all, once he got his hands on the hidden treasures of the Goodman family, he would definitely have ways to make Jian Yiling and her Lahaisen Hospital disappear from existence.
“To find the treasure, there’s an important clue we could look into,” Situ Zhong mentioned.
“What clue?” Zhang Xin hurriedly asked.
“It was rumored that the Xie family was very close with the Goodman family. Apparently, the location of the treasure was recorded on a piece of vellum.”
In the past, there were somewhat frequent exchanges amongst the nine reclusive families. Hence, most of the other reclusive families knew that the Xie family interacted with the Goodman family.
“But everyone says the entirety of the Xie family is dead. One day, they just suddenly disappeared from Country M. No one knows where they went,” Zhang Xin replied.
If they were dead, why was Situ Zhong still mentioning them?
Situ Zhong had an answer prepared for this: “Didn’t the Xie family leave a mansion in Country M? There’s always the possibility they left some clues there.”
During the Xie family’s golden age, they owned a mansion that had thousands of acres of land.
And now, that mansion had been completely deserted.
“I’m happy to go and look for clues. But isn’t the place incredibly big? How can we find the so-called clues?” someone asked.
“If our eight families work together, will that still be a problem?” Situ Zhong responded.
After discussing this matter for a while longer, the eight reclusive families decided to go to the Xie family’s abandoned mansion in Country M the next day. They were ready to scour each and every inch of land.
Naturally, Zhang Xin sent some people over as well. However, Zhang Xin himself stayed in Beijing.
After losing to Jian Yiling, his family business suffered many losses.
The Zhang family opened hundreds of stores in China. It was a very important part of their income. However, as he lost the competition against Jian Yiling, the Zhang family’s income stream was much worse than before.
Therefore, Zhang Xin was trying to fix the situation. At the same time, he still wanted to get revenge on Jian Yiling.
However, there were too many people around Jian Yiling at any time of the day. Furthermore, the Zhai family’s protection of Jian Yiling was all-encompassing.
Around the same time, Qin Chuan was also discharged from the hospital.
Zhang Xin went to look for Qin Chuan instead.
As soon as he entered Qin Chuan’s office, Zhang Xin felt a change in Qin Chuan’s aura. His face was much more cheerful than when he first met him.
“It seems like Jian Yiling not only healed your health but she also healed your heart,” Zhang Xin said with a smile on his face. There was a trace of mockery in that smile.
Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan replied: “My health is indeed better. As for my heart, I do not know whether it’s better. I just know I’m no longer confused and lost. I just know I will no longer force myself to think about questions I will never get an answer to.”
“Are you going to tell me you really let go of her?”
