Chapter 87: This is more personal

“So, Suyin. I never thought that you will have the guts to come forward and admit your mistake.”, Chen Liling smiled.
Everybody had settled in Natsukashi for brunch.
She stiffened. “Aunt…why wouldn’t I? It was my mistake after all. I truly felt sorry.”
Chen Liling snorted.
Jianyu said gravely, “Suyin, you had no right to invade Nana’s privacy like that. I had already told you not to ask anything about her past. But you still investigated her. Because of your one irresponsible mistake, you forced her to tell that horrible event in front of national television. Now, the whole world knows what happened to her. Do you understand the seriousness of this? And you are merely sorry?”
Tears welled in her eyes. Jianyu scolded her in front of everyone. His parents were there and his uncle too.
“On a side note, you should really get the Best Actress award. Nobody stands a chance against you.”, Liu Hai laughed as if he cracked a joke.
“No, I’m not-“
“Enough”, he shook his head, “I hope you seriously reflect on your mistakes. Please leave from here now. Nana would be uncomfortable.”
Chen Liling and Chen Guiren glanced at each other.
Suyin couldn’t take it anymore and hurriedly ran away from there crying all the way.
Soon, Nana and the twins brought their brunch and everyone happily ate it. Liu Hai had double servings of everything.
When they got up to leave, Liu Hai patted her head and said, “Child, if you face any problem, never hesitate to come to me. Liu’s will always be there for you.”
Chen Guiren thought he may lose to his brother-in-law, so he quickly went and held her hand and patted it.
He didn’t say anything but his eyes conveyed his full support.
Nana felt really happy. She nodded.

At the Liu’s villa, Grandma and Mother Liu and Huian saw everything on TV.
Liu Chunhua shook her head, “Poor child. I never thought that she had gone through such a tough childhood. How must have she survived after she was thrown out? All alone.”
Grandma Liu also felt a tiny bit sad for her.
However, Huian did not. She felt jealous of how Liu Hai and the whole Chen family were there to support her. She was secretly wishing for Nana to suffer but things turned out to be the complete opposite.
Nowadays she felt quite restless and crazier. She felt as if things aren’t in her control anymore. Like everyone is distancing themselves from her and everything is falling apart.

A few days passed by but nothing came out of the investigation of those letters. It was difficult for Assistant Xin because they had missed the second letter which said that everything started two years back.
He was going around in circles because he thought the letters represented something that is happening in the present or will happen in the future.
He drew a long sigh.
Han Ru just came when he saw his boss very tensed about something.
“Sir, is everything alright?”
“Ah, no nothing is alright. I’m so proud of my investigation skills but for the first time I am stuck.”
“About what? Maybe I can help you.”
He gave it a thought and nodded. After working with him, he found him to be a very honest and sincere young man. He did his every work with great focus and dedication.
“Well…”, he narrated the whole incident.
Han Ru widened his eyes. This seemed to be the same kind of letter I found here a few days back and which I gave to Lady Liu.
But she said that this was all a prank by her friend. And here sir is telling that it may be a serious conspiracy by one of our rivals? What is the truth?
No, I can’t hide this anymore. If this turns out to be a grave matter, then I will lose their trust in me. I’m so lucky that I get to work with such nice bosses.
He made his decision.
“Sir…I want to tell you something.”
“Yeah. Go on.”
“A few days back I found a similar letter in CEO Liu’s office. It was kept on his desk.”
Assistant Xin was shocked. “Huh!? Then why didn’t you inform me?”
He said how Huian told him to keep an eye on such letters and immediately hand it over to her and also to not bother Jinhai and him with this.
Assistant Xin was confused. “What? How did Madam Liu come in the picture? And which friend was she talking about?”
“I don’t know. She said it was the one where she failed to attend a birthday party.”
He thought back but he couldn’t recollect any birthday event of socialites whom Huian knows.
“There was no birthday banquet recently. Anyways, do you know what was written in the second letter?”
“Ah, it was written ‘It all started two years back when a certain someone’s patience finally ran out'”.
He frowned, “Huh? This is just now getting more and more bizarre. What does this person want to tell us with these letters? But, now I understood why wasn’t I getting anywhere with my findings. It happened two years back and like a fool, I’m searching for clues in the present.”
Han Ru apologized, “Sir, I’m really sorry. If I had told you earlier, you may not have wasted so much of your time.”
He waved his hand, “It’s alright. Well, Madam Liu is also technically our boss so I understand why you couldn’t refuse her.”
He felt relieved.
He thought and said, “Sir. I have one speculation.”
Xin nodded. “I know. This doesn’t seem to be related to our company. If you read all three letters, it comes off more as a personal thing.”
