The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 231: Nothing Left

Translator: Vesper

After a long while, Ling Luo and Xiao Residence remained unable to figure out why Tong Bao Zhai decided to take action against them. Not only that, even the masters remained nowhere to be found, and neither were there any news of them.

Therefore, it was impossible to make peace and ask what was their reason for doing so, which made Ling Luo sullen.

Ling Luo slammed his palm on his desk with a force so strong that it made a hole on his desk. This made Ming Fang somewhat worried.

“What should we do, Young Master?” There was no way to handle Tong Bao Zhai head on, but Ming Fang wouldn’t want Ling Luo to remain sullen.

“Ming Fang, have the people investigate what exactly happened before the attack Tong Bao Zhai launched on us three.” Ling Residence and Xiao Residence were in-laws. Both of them were attacked at the same time, so something must have happened. Besides, this matter must have a lot to do with Qiao family.

Now that all three families were attacked at the same time, this could only mean that all three families had one incident in common.

Ling Luo was really clever. He had managed to figure it out in just a short period of time.

“Yes, Young Master.” After Ming Fang went out, Ling Luo frowned. The biggest incident that had happened in recent days should be the return of that long lost general, and the head of the Qiao family going to find him right after his return.

Speaking of Qiao’s surname, Ling Luo suddenly thought of a person, and that person was Qiao Tian Chang.

Ling Luo’s eyes became wide open. He had a thought that he dare not think too much about.

But he soon called his subordinates to investigate who that general was.

If Qiao Tian Chang was really the general, then could he be related to Tong Bao Zhai?

This thought lingered in Ling Luo’s mind for a long time.

Qiao Tian Chang raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Zi You: “So they are investigating about it now?”

“Ling Luo’s business can still sustain a period of time, but they will definitely face a crisis if things prolong. It would be strange if he doesn’t investigate.” Lin Zi You said with sarcasm.

He only found out a while ago that his sister-in-law turned out to be related to Tong Bao Zhai. He felt that his boss had gained a huge advantage.

“In this case, it seems like I should also start to take action.” Qiao Tian Chang said casually.

They want to investigate? Sure, but that’s only if they have time to investigate it after my attack.

Lin Zi You was initially very excited, but it quickly disappeared. His boss was indeed really smart.

After Ming Fang returned, his brows were wrinkled. When he saw Ling Luo, he was at a loss and remained hesitant.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing Ming Fang’s expression, how could Ling Luo not know what was going on?

“Before the attack on us, the Qiao family went to White Mountain Village to kidnap Miss Ning, but they encountered an assassination on the road back. The person who arranged for the assassination was from the Xiao Residence.” After Ming Fang said that, he lowered his head. He could clearly feel the rage from Ling Luo.

Ling Luo frowned, “You’re saying that this had something to do with Xiao Zi Xuan?”

“Yes, after learning that Miss Ning was being brought to the capital by the Qiao family, she wanted to take the chance to murder her. Nothing happened to Miss Ning, but she lost her child because of that.” Ming Fang thought of another thing and continued: “There’s one more thing. When Miss Ning got married, the owner of Yulin Mountain Villa and his wife, as well as Young Missy Mu and Young Master Mu appeared at their marriage. They left after the couple got married.”

Ling Luo took a few steps back, his eyes filled with disbelief. How is this possible?

Ling Luo’s mind was in a mess, and he couldn’t think for a moment.

“Is Qiao Tian Chang the top general?” Ling Luo asked out loud.

“Yes, he is. The reason why he returned to his position in the capital is also because he learned that Miss Ning had a miscarriage.” Ming Fang told Ling Luo about everything he had investigated.

When Ling Luo heard about Ning Meng Yao’s miscarriage, his eyes flashed with concern.

The people that Ming Fang mentioned previously were the masters of Tong Bao Zhai. They attended the couple’s wedding, which meant that they had a good relationship with them. What should I do now?
