C191 It's Complicated
He was still too young. He didn't know if he could fool Jiang Man. It all depended on his luck.
If he didn't recognize the child as the young master of the Xue family, Lin Xiao wouldn't have gotten involved in this mess.
Jee Qi's family came out of New Ridge. There were also a few aristocratic families. Xue family was one of them.
Lin Xiao had seen the news of the Xue family's wife's death when he had been watching the news. He had not paid much attention to it at the time. Now that he thought about it, after the Xue family's wife passed away, Jiang Man had ascended the throne.
He could more or less guess the secrets of these big families. They were just pretending to be dumb and playing dumb.
Just as Lin Xiao was about to focus on filming, a call came from the New Ridge Police Station. They said that the person from before had been caught. When they found him in the cabin in the outskirts, he was covered in dirt.
Thinking of Old Man Xiao's warning, Lin Xiao could only let go of what he had to do and go to the police station first.
It was still the interrogation room, but Lin Xiao did not let anyone else in this time. He was the only one who faced this crafty person face to face.
"He ran really fast last time." Lin Xiao curled the corner of his mouth and looked at the man in front of him with a low smile.
"Do you have cigarettes?" the man asked. The man suddenly raised his head and asked. He didn't look nervous.
Lin Xiao shrugged. He could not help. "I don't smoke."
The man clicked his tongue. He seemed to be sighing that there was a man who did not smoke in the world.
"Who took the hairpin? What is your purpose?" Lin Xiao narrowed his eyes.
The man suddenly recalled the past. He lowered his eyes and thought about something. He waited for a while before he said to Lin Xiao, "You caught the wrong person."
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment. This sentence had little effect on him. He saw the man in black walk out of the car and get into the wrong person's car. How did he catch the wrong person?
"We didn't get it, but he got it first." The man's hair was messy, and his clothes were tattered. No one knew what he had gone through.
Lin Xiao frowned. This hairpin was quite popular.
"Do you know what that hairpin is for?" Seeing Lin Xiao's expression, this person suddenly asked curiously.
"I don't know." Lin Xiao answered honestly.
"Hiss..." The man took a deep breath and muttered something in a low voice.
"That is the key to open the underground treasure. You didn't know it was so tightly guarded? Who gave it to you?" The man glanced at Lin Xiao and explained to him.
Lin Xiao felt that he needed to straighten out the situation and let the man wait in his seat. Lin Xiao turned around and left.
He turned on his phone and found Old Man Xiao's phone. Lin Xiao's finger hovered on the screen for a while, but he still pressed the button.
"Who is it?" Old Man Xiao's cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.
"It's me, Lin Xiao." Lin Xiao thought about what that person had said to him just now and was in a hurry to ask Old Man Xiao for confirmation.
"Oh, Lin Xiao, what is it?" Old Man Xiao didn't seem surprised at all.
"What is the background of that hairpin?" Lin Xiao asked.
"Hmm? That's a key." Old Man Xiao calmly replied: "The key to the underground treasure, that's what they said."
Lin Xiao's face had already turned better, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, his face darkened again. "Is it true or not?"
"It should be." Old Man Xiao's answer was ambiguous. There was no truth in it, which made Lin Xiao wonder if he should believe him.
"Goodbye." Lin Xiao was ready to hang up the phone.
He listened to Lin Xiao's clothes rubbing against each other. He was about to hang up the phone when Old Man Xiao said he was joking.
"I really don't know. When I took this hairpin, no one told me about it. Later on, a few people insisted that this hairpin was for. A key. I thought they were crazy. But when more people come, I doubt it. " Old Man Xiao thought for a while and organized his words.
After calling Old Man Xiao for more than 20 minutes, Lin Xiao could only sigh and hang up the phone to go back.
He did not go to see that person again. Lin Xiao asked the police station in Xinling to lock him up first. He would ask him some questions when he remembered to ask.
After filming the scene during the day, Lin Xiao lay on the hotel bed and sent a new text message.
"Are you the person today?"
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows. This should be the child today.
"It's me. Why? Didn't your mother find the note?"
"She took the first note you gave me."
Lin Xiao was lying on the bed. He had been hanging there for the whole day, and his arm was so sore that he could not lift it up. He looked at the child in front of him, who had been texting him nonstop, and made a phone call.
He did not expect the phone to be hung up right after the first ring.
"Why did you call me?! I'm sitting together with Dad and Little Mom!"
Just by looking at these two exclamation marks, he could feel the nervousness of the child opposite him.
"I'm tired today. If there's anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow. You can play with your parents first."
After that, Lin Xiao ignored him.
The phone returned to the main page. Lin Xiao thought about it and typed a few words on the browser.
Xue family in New Ridge.
The founder of the Xue family, Xue Xingchun's great-grandfather. He was just a country bumpkin who came to the city to look for a job. In the end, he was chosen by a rich family's daughter, borrowing the power of a rich family's daughter. He succeeded in making the Xue family. It was just that the good things didn't last long. After giving birth to his son, this old man cheated on him. He had taken a liking to an even more beautiful and young company employee.
Later on, it became very ugly. The rich daughter of a rich family. Because of this, her family naturally wouldn't forgive Xue Xingchun's great-grandfather. They had been using their power to destroy the Xue family, but in the end, both sides suffered heavy losses.
The Xue family slowly declined, and the rich family's daughter's family was reported to have moved.
When it came to Xue Xingchun's grandfather, the Xue family had always been living in seclusion.
After that, Xue Xingchun's father, Xue Jianqun, was born. During school, he met Xue Xingchun's mother. Jiang Lanyan, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.
History repeated itself here. Xue Jianqun relied on the Jiang family's power to pull the Xue family back to its peak step by step. At the same time, Xue Jianqun was like his grandfather, cheating on him.
This incident had caused quite a commotion back then, and Xue Xingchun had just been born. This meant that Xue Jianqun had an affair with Jiang Man outside when Jiang Lanyan was pregnant.
Of course, the Jiang family did not want their precious daughter to be wronged, but it was also a little difficult for them to take revenge.
Xue Jianqun was much smarter than his grandfather. He secretly transferred all the partners of the Jiang family to the Xue family, slowly turning the Jiang family into an empty shell. Jiang Lanyan could not bear the grievance and jumped off the building to commit suicide.
After that, Xue Jianqun openly brought Jiang Man home. Because the Jiang family had been pressuring them from behind and the public opinion of the crowd, they had never admitted Jiang Man's identity, but it was about time.
