276 The Situation of the Yan Family

“Baby, you only saw the surface. It’s not that the Yan family didn’t take action. They did, but they realized that they were helpless, so they gave up.” Qiao Qiao stood against the flower wall beside her and reached out to pick up a rose to play with. “Because the Yan family doesn’t lack daughters. Or rather, the Yan family doesn’t lack descendants. Yan Zimeng has a pair of twin sisters and a younger brother. Of course, there are even more cousins.”

“But no matter how many there are, she’s still the daughter of the Yan family. It’s inevitable that her parents will be sad if they can’t do anything.”

However, Qiao Qiao laughed. “Baby, what are children in those rich families? They’re tools to solidify their position or for marriage alliances. They’re spoiled when they’re useful and thrown away when they’re useless. Of course, it’s not absolute, but most of them are like this. That’s why there are so many rich families’ grudges.”

Le Yao sighed. She had to admit that Qiao Qiao was right.

“Let me tell you about the Yan family in detail.” Qiao Qiao came over and sat down beside Le Yao. “The post on the Internet previously was right. The Yan family has always relied on the He family to survive. Wealthy families are also divided into levels. For example, the He family, the Nangong family, and our Qiao family belong to the first tier... Yan Zimeng’s mother, Wen Yan, and He Rong are best friends. He Rong didn’t like Yan Chenggong, so she pushed Wen Yan to him. Later on, she gave birth to her eldest daughter, Yan Zimeng. He Rong had some compensation mentality, so she hoped that her son could marry Yan Zimeng. Unfortunately, she didn’t get engaged and you took advantage of him...”

Le Yao pursed her lips. Marrying Nangong Jue was an advantage for Han Binglan, but it was troublesome for her.

“The Yan family originally wanted to use Yan Zimeng to rope in the He family and the Nangong family, but in the end...” Qiao Qiao spread her hands. “When she couldn’t rope in Nangong Jue, she lost her importance in the Yan family.”

“When I went back this time, I heard that one of her sisters seems to have married Fu Haikuo. Fu Haikuo is Fu Yunshen’s eldest brother. If nothing goes wrong, he will be the next head of the Fu family. If the Yan family and the Fu family are married, it will be even better.”

“And Yan Zimeng is guilty of murder, the kind that can cause public outrage. Once the Yan family appears, they will also be implicated. Therefore, all the Yan family can do is cut ties with her,” Qiao Qiao said as she handed over her phone. “Take a look. The Yan family has already made a statement yesterday.”

Le Yao took it and took a look. The Yan family had actually made a statement that Yan Zimeng had already left the Yan family three years ago, so the Yan family did not know anything about her current actions.

In short, they had cut ties with her cleanly.

“Although this is a little cold, I have to say that it’s smart. After all, Yan Zimeng did insist on going overseas three years ago.”

Le Yao nodded. Yan Zimeng had reaped what she sowed.

Next, Qiao Qiao told her about the relationships between the other aristocratic families in Beijing to Le Yao. The twists and turns were very complicated. Most of the time, a slight change would affect the entire situation.

“Alright.” Qiao Qiao stood up. “When you go to the Imperial Capital in the future, you’ll slowly find out about these relationships. Now, come out with me.”

“Where are you going?”

“Our shop has been renovated. We’ll go and check it now. Then, we’ll check the employees and finally discuss the opening.” Qiao Qiao made an inviting gesture. “Then, Chef Han, please.”
