Chapter 482: The Past of the Yan and Lu Families (2)
Since his father’s death, Yan Kejun has been growing up by Yan Zhengxiong’s side.
As the eldest grandson of the Yan Family, Yan Kejun has always listened to Yan Zhengxiong, and Yan Zhengxiong has also strictly taught him, striving to cultivate him into the most outstanding successor of the Yan Family.
It was also because of Yan Zhengxiong that Yan Kejun could achieve his current success and rapidly grow in the business world.
At this moment, Yan Zhengxiong walked in with a serious face, his hands behind his back, lips tightly pressed, looking angry.
He walked up to Yan Kejun and frowned, asking:
"You just mentioned Blood Curse Poison and Lu Jihan on the phone with your secretary. What, are you investigating him?"
Yan Kejun was stunned; he didn’t expect that his uncle had overheard the call just now.
But he didn’t plan to let his uncle know he was investigating Lu Jihan, especially because it involved Song Yinyin; he didn’t want his uncle to know about Song Yinyin.
He smiled and told a small lie: "Oh, uncle, you heard wrong. What’s this Blood Curse Poison? What’s that? Also, why would I investigate Lu Jihan? It’s nothing..."
Before he could finish, Yan Zhengxiong interrupted with a frown: "Don’t deny it, I heard it all just now!"
Yan Kejun pressed his lips together, seeing the anger on Yan Zhengxiong’s face, knowing he couldn’t hide it anymore. He nodded and admitted: "You... heard it?"
"Yes."
Yan Zhengxiong snorted, walked over to the sofa, and sat down, "Why investigate him? Didn’t I say not to alert him?"
Yan Kejun frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "I didn’t want to alert him, but... I think there are some things I need to investigate clearly."
"About the Blood Curse Poison?"
Yan Kejun was surprised; from his uncle’s tone, he seemed to know something.
"Uncle, you know about the Blood Curse Poison, too? Do you know something about it? Can you tell me?" He looked up in surprise, his tone a bit urgent.
If his well-experienced uncle knew something, getting his help might be able to save Song Yinyin.
Yan Zhengxiong said with a cold expression: "I do know about the Blood Curse Poison."
"That’s great!" Yan Kejun said with joy and pursued, "Uncle, with your wide experience, and having heard of the Blood Curse Poison, tell me how to cure this poison? And where does it come from?"
He was too anxious, and in a moment of desperation, he grabbed Yan Zhengxiong’s wrist.
Yan Zhengxiong lowered his gaze to his hand, slightly frowning, and said: "Why are you in such a hurry to know this?"
"I..." Yan Kejun paused for a moment and concealed, "To be honest, I accidentally heard about Lu Jihan’s secret. Someone told me he was afflicted by the Blood Curse Poison, and I thought... maybe I could use this against the Mainland Group."
All along, his uncle had been teaching him to consider the Mainland Group as a competitor, not only to achieve success like Lu Jihan but also to surpass his glory.
So, Yan Kejun deliberately said this to cover his own intentions.
He didn’t want his uncle to see that he was also worried about Song Yinyin...
Yan Zhengxiong glanced at his face, as if scrutinizing, half-squinting his sharp black eyes despite his age.
After a pause, he finally said: "Also in my younger years, because I had been to South America a few times for business, I heard some things about the Blood Curse Poison, but the details are not very clear."
As he spoke, he frowned again and said: "Where did you hear that Lu Jihan was afflicted by the Blood Curse Poison?"
"Uh, it was a friend."
Seeing that he was hiding something, Yan Zhengxiong just studied him deeply, but didn’t expose it.
