Chapter 656: Who Exactly Did He Offend?
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that this was the Zhu family’s problem. Someone was trying to mess with the Zhu family behind their back.
For the entire afternoon, Zhu Qianliang and Zhu Qianlan were exhausted from dealing with the situation. After they finally sent these people away, Zhu Qianliang called Zhu Qianlan to speak alone in the office.
“Previously, Dad said that you must have offended someone in Nanjiang city, which is why there was a problem with the raw stone transaction this time. Now, the company has come to these departments to investigate this and that. Zhu Qianlan, think carefully. Who exactly did you offend? ”
In his anger, Zhu Qianliang didn’t even call her sister. Instead, he called her by her first name, “When we were at home, Dad and mom said that if you don’t control your temper, you won’t be able to achieve great things. I say, Zhu Qianlan, can’t you let dad, Mom, and Me, as your younger brother, save you some trouble? ”
“How would I know who I’ve Offended? ” Zhu Qianlan’s heart was filled with anger and she didn’t know who to vent it on, “I’ve been in Nanjiang City for so many years, and my temper has always been like this. I’ve always been fine, but who would have thought that I’ve been so unlucky recently! It’s all because of that Jiang Yao! Ever since she appeared, nothing good has happened! That Jinx! ”
Zhu Qianlan gritted her teeth and cursed, blaming all of her recent displeasure on Jiang Yao. After all, ever since she appeared, nothing had gone smoothly for her!
Zhu Qianliang found a key point in Zhu Qianlan’s cursing, “You’re saying that these things only happened after you and Jiang Yao had a feud? “SIS, when did you and Jiang Yao get to know each other? “How did you offend her? “When do you think you can be smarter? “Jiang Yao’s husband is obviously not an ordinary person. How did you say that he’s a poor soldier who lives off women? ”

Zhu Qianliang suspected that Zhu Qianlan was really unlucky because she had offended Jiang Yao. If Jiang Yao’s husband’s identity was not simple, it would be really easy for him to deal with a brainless person like Zhu Qianlan.
Moreover, it was also a coincidence. They had an unpleasant conversation in the restaurant at noon, and in the afternoon, trouble started to happen at the company.
It was really too much of a coincidence to call it a coincidence.
“I think that Jiang Yao’s husband is a poor soldier! You didn’t see how he looked in his military uniform. His beard was messy, and he looked like a poor man! ” Zhu Qianlan was also unconvinced, “Didn’t you ask someone to investigate the identity of Jiang Yao and her husband? ”
“It’s been an afternoon, and there’s still no news. It’s probably not easy to investigate, ” Zhu Qianliang said. “If Jiang Yao’s husband is really the second generation of a high-ranking military official, our people might not be able to find out his identity. ”
Thinking of this, Zhu Qianliang decided not to sit still and wait for death. If this continued, how would the Zhu family company have any reputation and credibility in Nanjiang City?
“I’ll go there personally. ” After Zhu Qianliang said that, he picked up the car keys on the table and thought to himself, the people who went to the raw stone trading ground today were people from the Public Security Bureau. They went in to investigate in the name of causing trouble and gambling. In the afternoon, there were some tax bureaus.., the Bureau of Industry and Commerce and the fire department came over to investigate. Therefore, he decided to go to the Bureau of Industry and commerce to get some information first.
Jiang Yao returned to her dormitory. The girls in the dormitory didn’t have lunch breaks. Until now, the topic of their conversation was still dinner.
After Jiang Yao went in, she greeted a few people. Before she could resist the teasing of these girls, Jiang Lei’s call came in.
Jiang Yao called Jiang Lei when she was in the hotel at noon. However, Jiang Lei didn’t have a cell phone, so she called the landline in the office of Jiang Lei’s factory. She asked the person who answered the phone to tell him to call her back when Jiang Lei was free.

Now, 13 years later, she finds herself again taken to a foreign world – this time, by her own choice. Not the same world that she returned from, but a foreign world nonetheless. There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.
