Chapter 50: You Have a Son
Qian Mang’s expression was very terrible. He looked at the sky and then at his feet. Finally, he let out a long sigh. “I will do a paternity test again tomorrow.” With that, he sniffed and took out a cigarette from his pocket to light it up.
According to Jiang Tong’s knowledge, Qian Mang was a heavy smoker. However, he gave up smoking after Chen Xiuxiu became pregnant. He only started to smoke again after the child grew up. He was very restrained and only smoked a few cigarettes a day. However, out of habit, he always had a pack of cigarettes on him. It wasn’t for himself, but for socializing and for his guests.
Qian Mang opened the pack of cigarettes and took out a cigarette. He casually handed it to Jiang Tong but she stopped him. She said, “I don’t want it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtQian Mang put the cigarette back into his mouth, took out a lighter, lit it, and took a deep puff. Then, he stared blankly at the street. He needed a cigarette to help him calm down and also to reduce the stress he was feeling.
After he finished smoking, Qian Mang also calmed down. He took out his cell phone and dialed a phone number. He said into the phone, “Dali, bring some people to find Chen Gang and those who are close to him in the company. Bring them to the villa in the suburbs. Yes, bring all of them and detain them. We’ll talk about it when I get there.”
The ‘Dali’ that Qian Mang was talking about was originally called Xu Dali. He was the vice president of the Iron Power Corporation and a good friend who had followed Qian Mang for decades. After hanging up the phone, Qian Mang took out another cigarette. His mind was a mess. It seemed as though he had thought about a lot of things, but he also didn’t seem to have thought of anything.
“Alright, I’ve always said that I’ll help others to the end.” Seeing Qian Mang’s dejected look, Jiang Tong clicked her tongue. She looked at Qian Mang and asked, “Do you still remember Wu Hui?”
Qian Mang turned to look at Jiang Tong with a strange look in his eyes. “You’re only in your early twenties. How do you know about Wu Hui?” Wu Hui was Qian Mang’s first girlfriend more than thirty years ago.
“Not only do I know about Wu Hui, but I also know that the reason you broke up with her back then was because you cheated on her.” Jiang Tong put her hands in her pockets. She said with a confident expression, “The two of you have known each other since you were seventeen years old. You’ve been together for more than six years. In the end, you ended up sleeping with a woman who came out from a singing and dancing hall and betrayed Wu Hui.” Jiang Tong’s words were not very polite. However, Qian Mang could not refute her.
Wu Hui’s incident had happened too many years ago. Qian Mang had almost forgotten what she looked like, but he would never forget the name ‘Wu Hui’. When he was with Wu Hui, it happened to be in the midst of the country’s development trend. Those who dared to go all out could easily earn a lot of money. Becoming rich overnight was not a dream. Qian Mang was a daring person. At that time, he was about to marry Wu Hui, but he met some people. After earning money, he lost himself. Back then, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with him cheating on her. He thought that Wu Hui wasn’t good enough for him, but after he succeeded and became famous, he realized that he was wrong. But he and Wu Hui had already missed each other.
“You investigated me?” Qian Mang put away the sadness on his face and looked at Jiang Tong seriously. The fact that Jiang Tong knew about such an old matter at her young age was very suspicious.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’s not considered an investigation.” Jiang Tong waved her hand. “Regarding my line of work, you can ask Zhou Jingyun and see if he will tell you. My story is not important. What’s important is that I know that Wu Hui was pregnant when she broke up with you. Although she was disappointed in you, the child was innocent. She gave birth to a boy. So not only do you have a son, but you also have a granddaughter.” She knew that Qian Mang was most upset about the fact that he had no offspring. Therefore, this news should be good news for Qian Mang.
The cigarette in Qian Mang’s hand fell to the ground. He stared at Jiang Tong with his mouth agape.
......
Seeing Qian Mang’s silly look, the corners of Jiang Tong’s mouth twitched. In fact, she asked Qian Mang to come out to talk because she wanted to tell him this piece of news. Otherwise, she had nothing else to say to Qian Mang. She had already said everything that needed to be said. The rest was up to Qian Mang to investigate on his own. As long as he did a paternity test with Chen Xiuxiu’s son, the truth would come out, there was no need for Jiang Tong to waste her breath on this. The reason she came out to talk alone was to tell Qian Mang that he had a child!
Qian Mang was injured and could not conceive naturally. However, this was something that happened later. When he was with Wu Hui, his body was very healthy. Of course, he could have children. Jiang Tong had investigated too many people in the five hundred years cycle. She knew too many secrets and knew many people’s pasts. Therefore, she often lamented that fate played tricks on people. She learned of matters such as a couple who turned out to be long-lost siblings separated for many years; someone’s lover was the murderer who had killed their father; the hospital had accidentally swapped the babies, causing the fates of the two children to change drastically. There were too many of such things.
