Chapter 562: Getting Drunk (2)_1
Situ Haoran was different from Situ Haotian, he had his own concerns. After all, Liu Chengtian was his wife’s nephew. As his uncle by marriage, he couldn’t just confront his wife’s nephew without any evidence.
Situ Haoran’s concerns were valid. However, Situ Haoran’s attitude made both Situ Haotian and Situ Che feel very uncomfortable. Situ Haotian directly yelled at his brother Situ Haoran, "What more evidence do we need when it’s all so clear?"
But Old Master Situ agreed with his eldest son’s opinion, that no matter the issue, evidence was necessary.
Situ Haotian, Situ Haoran, and Situ Che began to search for evidence to prove Situ Che’s innocence and to show that this was all someone else’s conspiracy. However, this time the efforts weren’t going well at all. It seemed as if someone had already tampered with all potential evidence beforehand. Everything they tried to retrieve, like the footage from "Broadway" and the hotel where Situ Che was taken on that day, they were informed was unavailable.
The cleanliness and efficiency of the cover-up was causing Situ Haotian and Situ Haoran endles headaches.
And as time slowly passed, the deadline set by Old Master Shan was rapidly approaching. Additionally, Shan Xue, seeing that the Situ Family was making no moves and growing anxious, specifically sought out Situ Che’s mother, Liu Qian. She told Liu Qian about the situation and even persuaded her to try to influence Situ Che’s thoughts, saying that marrying her niece would do him no harm.
After hearing Shan Xue’s words, Liu Qian was stunned. She went back to ask her husband and son what was really going on. Once she received confirmation from them, Liu Qian slumped into a chair. How could she not know what kind of family her sister-in-law’s family was? The girls from that kind of family could never be good.
Moreover, they had the audacity to hatch such a shameless scheme against her son. Until now, Liu Qian had never blamed her nephew for her son being targeted.
Liu Qian had been deeply worried ever since she learned about the incident. And with Old Madam Situ and Loo Yaxin both away at BL, she had no one at home to talk to. So, as the deadline for rejecting Old Master Shan’s condition approached, Liu Qian couldn’t help herself and made a call to her mother-in-law in BL, informing her about the matter. This led to the urgent scene of Situ Xin and others hurrying back home.
After the four men of the Situ Family had explained the situation from beginning to end, the room fell so silent that one could have heard a pin drop.
After hearing the entire story, Situ Xin became lost in thought. But Loo Yaxin was seething with anger, "Liu Chengtian really is heartless, conspiring with his in-laws against his own cousin. And the Shan Family is no better. Their intentions towards Ah Che are as clear as day. They should take a good look at themselves; with what right do they harbour such thoughts?"
