Neither I nor Su Wanqing responded immediately. We both knew that the Zhao Family Brothers had started to suspect us. After the gathering ended, we quickly left. But we knew that the Zhao Family Brothers would not give up easily. Sure enough, it wasn't long before we began to feel the pressure from the Zhao Family Brothers.
In my office, unknown individuals threatened me. "Lin Jinxuan, if you dare to investigate the Zhao Family again, don't blame us for being rude!" Su Wanqing's art exhibition was also sabotaged. "Wanqing, I've lost over thirty pieces of my work, and more than twenty have been damaged," Su Wanqing said on the phone, her tone anxious.
My situation was becoming increasingly difficult. My assistant was transferred without reason, and the new assistant was unfriendly towards me. She deliberately set obstacles in my work, increasing my workload. My boss also started to pressure me, constantly assigning new tasks. It was clear that they were intentionally making things difficult for me.
Su Wanqing's life was also affected. Unknown individuals appeared near her residence. "Jinxuan, I think I should go out less recently to avoid getting into bigger trouble." "My friends are also advising me not to get involved with the Zhao Family anymore," Su Wanqing said on the phone, hesitating.
I knew what she wanted to ask. She wanted to give up investigating the Zhao Family. After all, we had already put in so much effort; it would be a shame to give up now.
I remained silent.
My mind was in turmoil, unsure of what to do.
"Jinxuan, I still want to continue."
"We have finally found some clues; if we give up now, all our previous efforts will be in vain."
Su Wanqing's voice was filled with determination.
"I can't accept it; I won't let the Zhao Family get away with this."
I took a deep breath and made up my mind.
"Alright, let's continue our investigation."
"But we must be more careful; we can't let the Zhao Family catch us off guard."
Su Wanqing agreed.
Our investigation continued.
During an accidental social event, Su Wanqing encountered the Old Butler of the Zhao Family.
In their conversation, the Old Butler revealed quite a bit of information.
Not everyone within the Zhao Family was in agreement regarding Zhao Tian and Zhao Di's actions.
Some people expressed dissatisfaction with the current situation.
"Miss Su, actually there are quite a few people in the Zhao Family who are not happy with how things are now."
"When Old Master Zhao was around, the Zhao Family was such a united and harmonious family."
"But now..."
The Old Butler's words shocked Su Wanqing.
She realized that this could be a lead in investigating the internal conflicts within the Zhao Family.
Su Wanqing shared the details of this conversation with me.
We discussed it for a long time and decided to delve deeper into the internal conflicts of the Zhao Family.
If there were indeed conflicts within the Zhao Family, we might find a breakthrough.
We began secretly contacting members within the Zhao Family. We hoped to find individuals who were dissatisfied with Zhao Tian and Zhao Di. The investigation results surprised us. There indeed existed discontent and conflict within the Zhao Family. The actions of Zhao Tian and Zhao Di had disappointed many elders of the Zhao Family. They reminisced about the era of Old Master Zhao, longing for the unity and harmony that characterized the Zhao Family at that time.
After Old Master Zhao's passing, significant changes occurred within the Zhao Family. Zhao Tian and Zhao Di quickly seized control of the Zhao Family, eliminating dissenters and promoting their loyal followers. This led to a buildup of resentment within the Zhao Family. During this process, we began searching for individuals who might be willing to expose the truth from within the Zhao Family. If we could find such a person, our investigation would proceed much more smoothly.
