Chapter 396: Chapter 397 Too Cruel
This, he had indeed not anticipated.
For so many years he had persistently sent people to investigate Jiang Zhengxing, hoping to find evidence of his crimes, to send Jiang Zhengxing to jail.
But he had never investigated Jiang Huan.
In his eyes, though Jiang Huan was unkind to his father, he was still his father’s biological father.
Children are the life of their parents.
How could a father plot against his own son?
So he never doubted Jiang Huan, nor did he investigate him.
From what Gu Junzhu was implying, could it be that Jiang Huan had an issue?
Gu Junzhu’s gaze swept over Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli’s faces: “I don’t know if you’re aware, the Jiang Family carries the twin gene. Jiang Huan once had a fraternal twin brother named Jiang Lin.”
Ye Xinglan’s heart tightened, realizing what Gu Junzhu meant, but it was mostly disbelief: “…I know, Jiang Lin was Jiang Huan’s fraternal twin brother, my great uncle. But he committed murder in his twenties, fled in exile, and later died in the wilderness…”
His voice got smaller. In the end, he paused, and asked haltingly: “You mean, Jiang Lin did not die, but Jiang Huan was the one who died?”
He wasn’t foolish; in fact, he was very smart.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t support the entire Ye Family and Star Palace in his twenties.
He was just immersed in the situation and had never thought that the problem might be with Jiang Huan.
Now that Gu Junzhu suddenly mentioned Jiang Huan’s twin brother, Jiang Lin, what else wouldn’t he be able to guess?
Ye Xingli and Ye Xingbei were similarly stunned, looking at Gu Junzhu with incredulous eyes.
Gu Junzhu signaled Gu Chi with her eyes.
Upon receiving the command, Gu Chi left and returned shortly after with a thick stack of information, which he handed over to Ye Xinglan.
After Ye Xinglan finished reading, his face turned as pale as snow, his hand trembled slightly as he handed the information to Ye Xingbei.
As for Ye Xingli sitting next to him, when he was going through the information, she had already leaned over, disregarding her image, and read along with him.
At this moment, she was shell-shocked.
Ye Xinglan was also deeply affected, murmuring: “So this is it! So this is it! This is ruthless… That old beast, he is too ruthless!”
The most concrete evidence in the information was a statement from a plastic surgeon.
Even identical twin brothers were not completely identical.
Jiang Lin, who was on the run, kidnapped Jiang Huan when the latter was on a business trip.
Jiang Lin bribed a plastic surgeon named Yang Tao, and after kidnapping Jiang Huan, he immediately impersonated him and moved into Yang Tao’s private hospital.
He used the excuse that Yang Tao was his friend to explain why he didn’t seek treatment in a large hospital, and instead was receiving treatment at Yang Tao’s small private hospital.
At Yang Tao’s private hospital, Yang Tao, based on the unconscious Jiang Huan, made Jiang Lin resemble Jiang Huan in every aspect, right down to small moles and scars.
Jiang Lin and Jiang Huan were identical, intimate brothers who lived under the same roof since childhood, Jiang Lin was intimately familiar with all of Jiang Huan’s habits, micro-expressions, and mannerisms.
With the scars forged by Yang Tao, Jiang Lin replaced Jiang Huan and after returning to the Jiang Family, he deceived everyone.
Still, the saying goes, every action leaves a trace.
The reason the truth had been buried was because nobody had doubted anything.
Once the seed of suspicion is planted, and as you dig deeper purposefully in that direction, and with the Gu Family’s network and connections everywhere, Yang Tao was noticed by the Gu Family and was singled out..
