The next day, both Qiu Mu-Cheng and Master Qiu were discharged from the hospital.
Qiu Mu-Cheng wanted to return to the Qiu's family house to visit her grandfather, but changed her mind when she reached the gate.
"We're already at the gate. Don't you want to go in?" Ye Fan asked.
Qiu Mu-Cheng shook her head and smiled self-deprecatingly. "No. When grandfather sees me, it will only make him mad. I was the one who got the Qiu family into trouble." After saying her piece, she returned home.
At that moment, Ye Fan's phone vibrated. It was a text message from Li Er. "Young Master Fan, I've followed your instruction. It's done." Ye Fan lifted his head and looked at the Qiu's family house. He smiled ambiguously and left.
The Qiu's family house.
Although Master Qiu had already left the hospital, the rest of the Qiu family were still hanging around him.
Right now, the eldest and fourth Qiu brothers were in prison. The second and youngest brothers were not around. And Qiu Lei, Qiu Mu-Cheng's father, was just useless. He did not even dare to visit the family house. Only Master Qiu was left to support the family in its time of need.
"Tell me, do you think we have underestimated Ye Fan?"
"Even the Shens were so servile to him. This Ye Fan could be a hidden dragon!"
"Perhaps, the calamity we are facing now has nothing to do with the Shen family. Maybe it is Ye Fan's revenge on us?"
The person speaking was the only daughter of the patriarch and Qiu Mu-Cheng's paternal aunt, Qiu Huan.
"Hmph, what kind of bullshit big shot is he?" "This Ye Fan is just a useless piece of trash. If he's somebody important, then my Ying-Ying is the First Lady. Obviously, the Shen family had made a mistake. The person they were looking for is our Wen-Fei." Wang Qiao-Yu's face was still swollen, but she had already forgotten the lesson taught to her at the hospital. She was still insisting that the Shens had made a mistake.
The other Qius kept their peace. Obviously they were skeptical of Wang Qiao-Yu's judgement.
After all, even if the Shens had made a mistake when they thought that Ye Fan was Chu Wen-Fei, how could they have mistaken Qiu Mu-Cheng for Qiu Mu-Ying? All of them remembered that the Shens had kowtowed to Qiu Mu-Cheng.
"Wen-Fei, say something. Tell your uncles and aunties that you were the one who settled the issue with the Shen family." When she saw that the others did not believe her, Wang Qiao-Yu angrily demanded Chu Wen-Fei to speak up.
"Dad!"
"Uncle Luo~"
"Uncle Guang!”
"You are back?"
But just as the Qius were discussing the events that had taken place at the hospital, two persons walked into the meeting. Qiu Mu-Ying and the others recognized the new arrivals, and joyously welcomed them.
"Guang and Luo, what happened? How come you are out so soon?" Master Qiu was pleasantly surprised but, at the same time, confused.
"Dad, we will explain later. Where's Wen-Fei? Luo and I have to thank Wen-Fei properly." Qiu Guang started looking for Chu Wen-Fei the moment he arrived.
Finally, the two Qiu brothers almost knelt down in front of Chu Wen-Fei.
"Dad, uncle, don't do this. It will be most unfilial of me if I let my elders kneel down in front of me!" Chu Wen-Fei was completely stupefied when he saw his uncles-in-law attempting to kneel in front of him. He was so frightened that he stopped them immediately.
"Wen-Fei, this time, the Qiu family has to thank you!"
"You are the savior of our family."
"Without you, we would never have overcome this trial!"
When Qiu Guang and Qiu Luo thought about the events that had happened that night, they still had lingering fears. When Qiu Guang had been arrested, he had thought that was the end of the Qiu family.
But, to his surprise, they had been released this morning. Not only them, but the Qiu family warehouses had also been reopened.
When they had left the public security bureau, Qiu Guang and Qiu Luo had met Shen Jiu-Yi. And he had told them, "If it wasn't for Mister Chu's magnanimity, your family would have been destroyed."
"Rejoice, for your family is fortunate enough to have a son-in-law like Mister Chu!"
And that had told the Qiu brothers everything they needed to know about the situation, including the identity of their savior.
In the Qiu family, there was only one person with the Chu surname. It could only be Chu Wen-Fei. And that was why the Qiu brothers had thanked Chu Wen-Fei upon their return.
"Damn, it's really Wen-Fei!"
"Wen-Fei's family is so powerful that they can even handle the Shen family?"
"Our family has an excellent son-in-law indeed."
