The CEO's Woman

Jiang Yue crossed her arms while staring at her grandfather.

"Spill it out, grandpa." She said after observing her grandfather's unusual behavior.

"How did you become this smart?" Wang Guiren awkwardly laughed before his face becomes serious again.

"There are a lot of things that you don't know about Minghua's mother," he began. "Wu Mingying might have come from the Wu family but no one considered her a true lady of the Wu, not until she married your uncle."

"Your Aunt was bullied while growing up because her mother is only a lowly mistress from a normal household." Wang Guiren sighed. "But your aunt is a very kind woman, she never even told Wang Huo about this. Not even after they got married."

"However, she did not know that I already did a thorough investigation after Wang Huo introduced her to me."

"I did not tell your uncle about all this because I don't want him to do something to the Wu Family. At that time, our company wasn't this big."

"At that time, we didn't have the influence that we have now. Nor did we have the status to make an enemy out of the Wu Family."

"Anyway, after marrying your uncle, the Wu family immediately reached out to me and acknowledge her as part of their family."

Wang Guiren's face then became glum as he continued."Then your aunt died after giving birth to Minghua. It was a very... very sad memory. The whole family mourned for her death."

"Your uncle was devastated. That man... Your uncle wouldn't even touch Minghua because, for some reason, he blamed your cousin for his wife's death."

"To my surprise, after a few months, the Wu Family approached me again asking for another marriage. This time it was between your uncle and the Eldest daughter of the Wu Family. Wu Ziliang."

Jiang Yue twitched her nose after her grandfather's statement. "A second marriage? Are they crazy? Why would they do that?"

"Well, at first the patriarch of the Wu family said, it is because they pity Wang Minghua and Ziliang wanted to take care of him."

"Then they said, Wang Huo is still young and he needed another wife to continue his legacy."

"This made me do some research and I found out that Wu Ziliang had been following Wang Huo around since college. However, Wang Huo did not recognize her because she changed her looks to look a little more like your aunt after his marriage."

"That woman is crazy." Jiang Yue stated. Who would have known that her uncle was involved into something like this when he was younger? "So, obviously no marriage happened. Is that why the Wu Family does not like us?"

"No. They don't hate us. But they also never stopped proposing for a marriage. Until now, that Wu Ziliang never got married and chose to live abroad five years ago in the pretense of moving on."

"However?" Jiang Yue wanted to know more. If this involves the Wang Family then she is also involved in this.

"However I don't believe that was the true reason behind her sudden decision to leave." Wang Guiren finished Jiang Yue's sentence.

"At that time, I started an investigation about your aunt's death. I mean she was a healthy young woman. Why would she die from childbirth?"

"You mean?"Her pupils dilated after she heard her grandfather's theory.

"Yes. I believe she did something to her sister. However, I don't have enough evidence to prove it since all of the staff from the hospital disappeared after I started snooping around."

"And does uncle... "

"Yes. He knows about this. Even Minghua is aware."

"How come you just mentioned this now?"

"Well, you were busy with school, and I don't want to involve you into all this mess."

"So, why did you decide to tell me now?" She inquired. Jiang Yue knew that her grandfather might have some reason in doing this.

"Because this time history seems to repeat itself."

"What do you mean?"

"Your uncle told me that Ziliang will arrive in a few days. And I believe she will try and infiltrate our peaceful life. Aside from that..." Wang Guiren stared at Jiang Yue contemplating on how to inform her about the current information that he had gathered.

"Grandfather, you are keeping me in suspense!" Jiang Yue whined.

"The young miss of the Wu Family also took a liking to Fu Jin. According to my sources, they grew up together. Which is not really something new, since their grandfathers are best friends since they were young."

Jiang Yue nodded before she laughed out loud. So all this family history is just because of some annoying flies,

"Hmmm... So after all this, what you are trying to tell me is that a big trouble is coming."

"Am I right grandfather?"

Wang Guiren nodded while wondering why Jiang Yue found his last statement amusing.

"Are you not afraid?" He asked.

"Afraid of what?" Jiang Yue asked in return. "Don't worry about me grandfather, I can handle myself. However, I belive it would be better for you to talk to both uncle and Minghua about this"

"After all this involves the both of them" She advice.

"That's actually my plan." Wang Guiren concurred. He is planning to talk to his son and grandson this night so they can talk about possible solutions.

"Another thing is the Wu Family's business is also in the gaming industry and it is rumored that they will also create a mobile game this year." He added. This is actualy his primary purpose for coming to see Jiang Yue.

This information is very important to Jiang Yue's company.

"Interesting." Jiang Yue answered. If that is the case then she would expect for them to become her direct competitor.

"So do you know the person who will handle this project?" She asked.

"Yes, It should be the young miss of the Wu family. Wu Minxia."

Jiang Yue's brow raised after she heard the name of Fu Jin's childhood friend.

Seems like both of them will not just compete against business this time. Or will they?

"Very interesting indeed!" Jiang Yue thought out loud before giving her grandfather another cheeky grin.

Ah... seems like her two years without Fu Jin won't be that boring after all!
