Chapter 421 - 421: The Secretary Knows the Truth



Xia Ru had no idea what was going through the secretary’s mind at the moment. She pleaded, “Now that Xia Wan ‘s family is offering a 50% discount, can’t we quickly sell our clothes at half price too? Otherwise, customers will all go to Xia Wan’s place, and what will happen to our clothes?”

The secretary sneered, “I won’t sell my clothes at 50% off. If Xia Wan’s family is going for a 50% discount this weekend, I can just close my store for two days.”

“If she’s willing to sell clothes, let her do it to her heart’s content. After all, it’s her who will incur losses. I won’t engage in such unprofitable business.”

After saying this, he didn’t give Xia Ru a chance to continue making requests. Instead, he called the store’s employees and instructed them to close the store for two days and resume normal operations on Monday.

He had made up his mind that Xia Wan’s so-called 50% discount wouldn’t last more than two days.

After this whole ordeal, both Xia Ru and the secretary lost their enthusiasm for leisure activities, and they went straight back home.

At this point, the secretary also realized something—he had underestimated Xia Wan’s family’s abilities.

Leaving Xia Ru at home, the secretary took his car to gather information about Xia Wan’s family.

Not many people in the county knew much about Xia Wan’s family. To get more accurate information, the secretary drove to the village where Li Jin and the others lived.

Upon arriving in the village, he had just parked his car and was preparing to ask someone for directions when he coincidentally ran into Chen Shu, who had previously received a free meal from him.

Chen Shu was very welcoming upon seeing him.

“Secretary, why are you here? Are you looking for Xia Ru’s family? Come on, I’ll take you there.”

Noticing that the secretary wasn’t carrying any gifts, Chen Shu couldn’t help but suggest, “This is your first visit to the girl’s family. It’s better to bring some things as a token of goodwill. Let me take you to the village store to buy some cigarettes, alcohol, and fruits.”

The secretary quickly stopped him.

Since Chen Shu had approached him voluntarily, he decided to ask Chen Shu directly.

The secretary said, “I didn’t come to visit Xia Rut s family this time. I want to understand why the relationship between Xia Ru and Xia Wan has escalated to this point of conflict. Do they have any conflicts between them?”

Chen Shu was highly intelligent and immediately understood the situation. He realized that the secretary had come to secretly investigate Xia Ru’s family.

Chen Shu felt that he had received quite a bit of cigarettes and alcohol the last time, so he shouldn’t reveal everything about Xia Ru’s family. After all, Xia Ru’s reputation in the village was quite poor. If the secretary found out the truth, he might even break up with Xia Ru.

So, Chen Shu said, “This child Xia Ru has always been a top student. She used to have better grades than Xia Wan, but during the high school entrance exams, Xia Wan performed exceptionally well and got into high school, while Xia Ru didn’t. After that, they had some disagreements.”

“This child Xia Wan learned some medical skills from her grandfather. When Xia Ru fell ill once, the treatment Xia Wan suggested was quite challenging, and Xia Ru thought that Xia Wan was intentionally torturing her. So, the conflict between them escalated.”

“Later, Xia Ru’s family got an opportunity to sell clothes for a wealthy boss, but Xia Ru made a mistake at work and had to resign from her original job.”

“You know, Xia Ru has always been proud, so she couldn’t accept such a fall in her status. Gradually, their relationship became even more strained.”

“Later, when they divided their family assets, they completely cut off contact with each other.”

“That’s the general course of events.”

The secretary, however, didn’t fully buy his explanation. He felt that Chen Shu’s eyes were evasive while he was speaking, indicating that he was hiding something. Nevertheless, he decided to leave it for now.

Once Chen Shu’s figure disappeared, the secretary randomly found two women chatting by the village entrance and asked them about Xia Ru’s situation. Upon hearing that he was inquiring about Xia Ru, the women looked him up and down..
