Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 817 - 738: Cooperation (Part 2)

What Li Kaiying wants is something for her amusement; such women with that kind of hobby are rare.

"How do you want to cooperate?"

"Do you know why Mei Erqing insisted on having you return to the Mei Family at this particular time?"

"Isn’t it because they see Mei Langchi has lost his great prospects, so they want me back to uphold the family’s appearance?" Han Yi frowned slightly, and said.

"Ha, for the Mei Family’s appearance, having the Mei family’s second son and his son is enough; they wouldn’t need an illegitimate child that should not see the light to do that. However, last year, Mei Erqing went to G City. After returning, he urgently wanted you back, do you know why?" Chen Haichang paused and sneered slightly.

"Why?" He had always been curious about why they suddenly wanted to recognize him so urgently.

"Because of me."

"At that time, I met with him, and even threatened him a bit."

Chen Haichang’s words made Han Yi frown. Anyone who could threaten Old Mr. Mei was certainly not simple.

But evidently, Chen Haichang did not intend to tell him the content of the threat.

It seemed Mei Erqing was really shaken by something he said.

"What exactly is it, so secretive, if we’re going to cooperate, don’t beat around the bush."

"Actually, I didn’t say much; I just said that I wouldn’t let the Mei Family have it easy. I also said I know the big boss. Maybe that scared him."

The big boss, who has some notoriety, is from the underworld and has some connections with us. Even higher-ups can’t deal with him, so Mei Erqing was definitely scared by this person, who is obviously not simple.

"Mei Erqing was scared. Even though he didn’t know if what you said was true or false, it’s better to be safe than sorry. So he feared that you might really take action against their family someday, so having another person meant having more combat power. So he thought to bring me back into the Mei Family. You probably said you wouldn’t spare anyone, which made him think of my family. If I returned to the Mei Family, then my wife and kids would count as part of the Mei Family. If something happened to my wife and kids, I would definitely act against you. He knows my strength, and with Mei family’s second son, the odds are better on their side. He could have someone else do his dirty work effortlessly."

Chen Haichang nodded confidently, "Indeed, it’s quite pathetic. All along, he has never really seen you, this illegitimate child. What he wanted was just to use your talents. That old man definitely checked on me after returning and was apprehensive, so he was urgently pushing for your return, fearing I’d strike them in these days. To be precise, last year, I did give Old Mrs. Mei a slight warning."

"You acted against Old Mrs. Mei?"

"It was just a wake-up call for them."

"Chen Haichang, what exactly is your background?" Han Yi squinted his eyes cautiously and asked.

"You don’t need to investigate or ask about my background; just know that I’m also Mei Erqing’s illegitimate child. My past isn’t suitable for you to look into, be careful not to bring trouble upon yourself. However, I can explicitly tell you, the big boss is indeed a good buddy of mine."

Han Yi looked at him with deep, dark eyes, wisely refraining from asking further.

However, he believed what Chen Haichang told him. Initially, he was disdainful about entering the Mei Family, and as his father-in-law said, they shouldn’t let the Mei Family take advantage. Now it seems this old fox Mei Erqing intends to use his family as scapegoats for the Mei Family.

Ha, he really is an old fox! But, his clever plan is not going to work out.

"By the way, let me disclose a secret to you."

"What secret?"

Chen Haichang took a sip of his drink, raised an eyebrow at Han Yi, signaling him to come closer, and then whispered something only the two of them could hear.

"Seriously injured? ... What happened?"

"Ha, you should ask your partner You Pei about that, for it was Langchi who lacked foresight. The You Family definitely wanted revenge. Initially, they were going to just make things difficult for him, but unexpectedly, an accident happened, injuring him severely in that area. This incident is unknown to the Mei Family, only Mei Langchi knows. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"How did you find out?"

"Because, at that time, I happened to have someone monitoring Mei Langchi, and coincidentally, after he got injured, my people overheard the doctor talking to him."

"So you told Ye Qing about this too?"

"Ha... You really are Han Yi. I think, besides sharing my sentiments, you promised to return because you’re also eyeing the Mei Family’s disgraceful fortune, aren’t you?"
