When the head of the Jiang family heard this, he said, "Mr. Chen, if you want to know anything, just ask! Whatever you want to know, I will tell you the truth and I will never hide a word from you. You are my savior. If it weren’t for you, I would probably have become a corpse by now!”
"How did your first daughter disappear back then?"
"Although I don't know what happened back then, I can feel that things were not that simple back then. When I asked you last time, you didn't tell me the truth."
"And when you spoke at that time, your tone was full of guilt. It was obvious that you had done something to regret your daughter. Am I right?"
Chen Tian looked at the head of the Jiang family.
Hearing this, the head of the Jiang family was stunned, but he quickly recovered and said to Chen Tian, "Mr. Chen, before I answer your question, can you answer me a question?"
"What's the question? Ask it!"
Chen Tian said.
"I want to know, why are you so interested in my family's affairs? Does the person who entrusted you to treat me and take care of our safety have anything to do with my missing daughter? Or is that person my daughter?"
After the head of the Jiang family finished speaking, he continued to speak, "Mr. Chen, to be honest, I am not stupid. There is no unreasonable kindness in this world. The person who entrusted you can't be so kind to us for no reason, except that that person is mine. Apart from my daughter, I can’t find any other reason!”
Chen Tian shrugged. Hearing this, Chen Tian didn't feel surprised at all.
Chen Tian knew before that sooner or later this matter would be hidden, and the head of the Jiang family would definitely guess it.
Things have reached this point. Chen Tian plans to tell the truth to the Jiang family leader, "Yes, the person who entrusted me to treat you is none other than your daughter. She has a plum blossom birthmark on her body!"
After hearing this, the head of the Jiang family finally confirmed that his daughter was still alive.
The next second, the head of the Jiang family, a grown man, burst into tears. There was grief in his cries and guilt for Jiang Hong.
Chen Tian was not in a hurry to ask about what happened back then. He sat on a chair and waited for the head of the Jiang family to calm down.
"The better my daughter treats me, the more uncomfortable and guilty I feel!"
The head of the Jiang family took a deep breath and began to fall into memories.
Before Chen Tian asked, the head of the Jiang family began to talk about Jiang Hong's disappearance.
It turned out that Jiang Hong's mother died not long after giving birth to Jiang Hong. Later, rival families of the Jiang family deliberately spread rumors that Jiang Hong was the illegitimate child of Jiang Hong's mother and a wild man. The news spread among the Jiang family, and everyone believed it to be true.
Mr. Jiang, the father of the Jiang family, believed this and forced the Jiang family to send Jiang Hong away for the sake of the purity of the family bloodline.
Before the head of the Jiang family could make a decision, Mr. Jiang died of illness. Fortunately, Mr. Jiang left a will before the deadline, making the head of the Jiang family the heir and leader of the Jiang family.
However, under the pressure of the Jiang family, the head of the Jiang family had to make a choice, either to send Jiang Hong away or to give up his position as the head of the family.
At that time, hostile families were pursuing the Jiang family fiercely. No one in the entire Jiang family except the head of the family could cope with this crisis. If the head of the Jiang family gave up the position of head of the family, the Jiang family would definitely be wiped out. In order to save the Jiang family, the head of the Jiang family must Then he sent Jiang Hong away cruelly.
The head of the Jiang family was indeed capable and easily solved the crisis in the Jiang family. When the head of the Jiang family wanted to look for Jiang Hong again, Jiang Hong had disappeared.
The head of the Jiang family has been looking for Jiang Hong for more than 20 years, and there is still no news, but the head of the Jiang family still has not given up.
He hoped to find Jiang Hong, make up for her, and... say sorry to Jiang Hong in person.
After listening to this, Chen Tian understood what was going on.
It turns out that the head of the Jiang family abandoned Jiang Hong for the sake of the Jiang family. He has been feeling guilty over the years and has been looking for Jiang Hong.
"This matter is not some dirty secret. When I asked you before, why didn't you tell me the truth?"
Chen Tian looked at the head of the Jiang family, "Should you explain this issue? Otherwise, how can I trust you?"
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I didn't trust you at the time. My eldest daughter's matter is the biggest weakness in my heart. I can't tell anyone about this weakness easily, otherwise I will be caught. Then I will just You can be manipulated by others!”
"My status is special. Many competitors of the Jiang family want to attack me. I must always be vigilant and cannot trust anyone casually!"
"But when I saw that you sincerely treated me and helped me, I knew that you were a trustworthy person. Only now will I tell you the truth about that year!"
The head of the Jiang family spoke.
Chen Tian thought about it and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with the Jiang family leader's words. There was nothing unreasonable about what he just described.
Therefore, Chen Tian concluded that this time, what the Jiang family leader said should be the truth.
Chen Tian felt aggrieved for Jiang Hong. She was supposed to have a happy childhood, but in the end she became the victim of a fight between adults.
"Mr. Chen, if you were me back then, what would you have done?"
The head of the Jiang family directly asked this soul-piercing question.
"If it were me, of course I would choose my daughter instead of my family. Nothing is more important than family!"
"In fact, there is no need to take the rise and fall of a family so seriously. Every day, families will rise, and families will decline or even die. If the family is gone, at least the people are still there, but if the relatives are gone, then there is really nothing!"
Chen Tian said.
Chen Tian experienced it personally. He watched his loved ones die in front of his eyes, but he was helpless.
Now, Chen Tian doesn't even have a single close relative.
Sometimes, Chen Tian feels like a lonely wandering ghost, and this world has nothing to do with him.
Chen Tian has been able to hold on until now and has been moving forward with a heavy load because revenge gave Chen Tian strength. Chen Tian has never forgotten the blood feud that year.
Chen Tian met Tang Mengxue before, thinking that besides revenge, he had finally found another important thing in life, and regarded Tang Mengxue as the whole world.
But what Tang Mengxue did later made Chen Tian completely chilled.
Compared with Chen Tian, the head of the Jiang family can be said to be very lucky. The head of the Jiang family still has a choice, but Chen Tian doesn't even have a choice.
"If I had the same idea as you, Mr. Chen, then I wouldn't have such a big regret!"
The head of the Jiang family took a deep breath.
