The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 787 - 785: She Is Dissatisfied with That Marriage
Lu Qingyuan was shocked as expected by Lu Beichen, just like when he initially found it hard to believe that the prominent Miss Tong from the Tong Family, who was already married, could have a daughter with an ordinary man. The key point is that not a single person in New City knew about this matter. Even if the Tong Family is adept at keeping things under wraps, it’s impossible for there to be no hint of it at all, especially since not even Lu Qingyuan knew.
"I remember now!" Lu Qingyuan suddenly said, "No wonder I found Tongtong’s father somewhat familiar at first. He was one of Tong Songlin’s attendants back then, wasn’t he? That girl was naive and went to try her luck in the entertainment industry, and if it hadn’t been for her older brother holding things down, who knows what trouble she might have gotten into! Later, she left the entertainment industry and got married. That attendant was never seen again. According to Tongtong’s age... How could this be? Unless... she wasn’t satisfied with that marriage back then?"
"Dad, what do you mean by that?" Lu Beichen asked.
Lu Qingyuan sighed, "Tong Songlin is actually the adopted daughter of the Tong Family, the daughter of Mr. Tong’s deceased comrade. As soon as she was born, she was taken into the Tong Family, adopted under Mr. Tong’s name, so much so that even they themselves weren’t aware of this. You know I was longtime friends with Tong Songqing, back then Tong Songlin developed feelings for him. They are considered siblings, which is why Tong Songlin was hastily married off to the Gu Family. Mr. Tong died of illness in anger at the time. I only found out later when Ah Qing died!"
Lu Qingyuan reminisced about that past, filled with deep longing and regret.
"Then how did Uncle Songqing actually die?"
"I... am not quite sure either!" Lu Qingyuan said and sighed deeply, then asked: "Does your question mean you intend to help Ji Yang?"
Lu Beichen remained silent, and Lu Qingyuan continued, "Ji Yang is a good kid. With more training, he wouldn’t fall short of his father. It’s just that Jiyuan is too deeply obsessed, if he truly becomes the chief, a blood-soaked storm is inevitable. You have always seen farther than I do, and whatever you decide to do, I won’t interfere. If you ever need me, just say the word."
"Mm, thank you, Dad!" Lu Beichen replied softly.
So Tong Songlin is the adopted daughter of the Tong Family? So over all these years after marrying, she’s hardly had any contact with the Tong Family. She liked Tong Songqing, so she thinks Tong Songbai killed her brother. Now she has joined forces with Tong Ji Yuan to take revenge together?
Lu Beichen always felt that things weren’t that simple! 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Just as he was pondering, Tong Ji Yang suddenly called, and as Lu Beichen answered, he heard Tong Ji Yang saying: "Brother Beichen, I’m really sorry about today. If I had known that the mother Tongtong has been searching for all these years was my aunt, I wouldn’t have taken Zhao Anqi along today and let her go there."
"I know!" Lu Beichen said calmly, "I also understand that if I laid hands on you, you wouldn’t harbor resentment towards me."
"Brother Beichen? You didn’t really blame me?" Tong Ji Yang was a bit surprised and happy.
"I’m not foolish enough to be used by Tong Ji Yuan, his current intentions are clear to both of us, just be more cautious in the future."
"You make me sound really dumb!" Tong Ji Yang laughed, glancing up at the dark windows on the 13th floor, so foolish that Zhao Anqi could repeatedly deceive him.
"You’ve just been careless!" Lu Beichen said lightly, "Ji Yang, consider carefully if you’re truly prepared to give up the position of chief for Zhao Anqi. If you want that position, I will definitely give you my full support!"
"No!" Tong Ji Yang was already driving back, "I won’t give up on Zhao Anqi or the position of chief!"
"Good!"
"By the way, Brother Beichen, my men just informed me that when the old man took Tongtong back, she fainted in that room, now being well cared for at the Tong Family. I’m going back now to clarify why he acted this way, and then have her released!"
"Fainted?" Lu Beichen was a little tense and worried, "I’m leaving her in your care, you better bring her back to me safe and sound, or I won’t let you off!"
"Definitely!"
