Chapter 255 The Third Wheel
Su Ya put down her phone, her eyes fixed on the television in the living room.
A news report was playing on the screen.
The news stated that Jiang Huainan, the Governor of the Eight Provinces in Jinling City, had come to inspect the area and had thoroughly purged a large number of illegal elements.
The video clip was brief, and many viewers might not have paid close attention. However, Su Ya understood the underlying meaning of this report.
It signified that Jiang Huainan was personally intervening to eliminate all forces of Jinling City's Tianyue Group.
Who was Jiang Huainan?
He was the Governor of the Eight Provinces, overseeing affairs in eight provinces. He held immense power and authority. His arrival meant the complete downfall of the Tianyue Group.
Whether it was the Bai family, the Mi family, or other participating families, they could only bow their heads and obey Jiang Huainan's command.
Su Ya's eyes widened, tears of excitement welling up.
At this moment, Su Wenshan and Liu Yue Ru were also watching the news in the living room, bursting into tears.
Although Chen Yang had rescued them earlier, they had always worried that the Tianyue Group had not been eradicated, or that its members might retaliate.
Zhu Dan, in particular, was a person whose identity was very well concealed, with a large organization backing him. He held an unparalleled status in Jinling City, and even prominent families like the Bai and Mi families could only look up to him.
Now, this news report meant that Zhu Dan was completely finished, and the Tianyue Group was utterly destroyed.
Su Wenshan nodded continuously and said, "Excellent, truly excellent! Our Su family's crisis is finally over. Jinling City will have a better business environment from now on, free from the corruption of the past."
Liu Yue Ru also sighed and said, "Yes, it's fortunate that Chen Yang and his friends arrived in time today. Otherwise, we wouldn't have lived to see this day."
At this point, Su Wenshan spoke, "Chen Yang's background must be extraordinary!"
"After he caused a stir in Jinling City, Jiang Huainan immediately rushed to our Jinling City. I suspect there is definitely a connection between Chen Yang and Jiang Huainan."
Liu Yue Ru next to him asked, "Oh? What connection could there be?"
"Didn't Su Ya say that Chen Yang is a security guard at their company? They came to Jinling City for a vacation with over a hundred security guards. It should be a coincidence, right?"
Su Wenshan shook his head, a cunning smile appearing on his old face. He said, "Where are there coincidences? Others have caused trouble in Jinling City before, but none have attracted such important figures."
"This time, Jiang Huainan personally arriving in our Jinling City is absolutely due to Chen Yang. I suspect Chen Yang's identity is very likely the rumored..."
Su Wenshan trailed off, looking at Su Ya.
Su Ya also looked at Su Wenshan with a curious expression. She said, "Grandpa, please continue! What is Chen Yang's identity? I'm very curious too!"
Su Wenshan chuckled proudly, "He is likely Jiang Huainan's illegitimate son."
Su Ya was taken aback and said, "Illegitimate son? That's impossible! Chen Yang has been in Qingzhou City for a long time. I've investigated his entire history thoroughly."
"Before, I suspected Chen Yang was the Celestial Venerable of the Heavenly Doctor Hall, but later found it absolutely impossible."
"When he was in Qingzhou City, he was a delivery driver. He was previously married to Liu Xin and was bullied in Liu Xin's home for an entire year. Later, fortunately, he met Liu Ran, and his life improved."
"If he were truly Jiang Huainan's son, he wouldn't have had to endure such hardship!"
"You have no idea how much he suffered at Liu Xin's house before."
Su Wenshan said proudly, "That's why it's a method for powerful figures to educate their children! They let their children experience hardship thoroughly, so they won't go astray in the future."
"I've heard such rumors before. It is said that Jiang Huainan's illegitimate son has never revealed his identity and has always lived as an ordinary person. Now, it seems highly likely that this person is Chen Yang."
Su Ya abruptly stood up and exclaimed, "Grandpa, who cares who he is! I'll take this opportunity to probe him further today. I'm leaving."
Su Ya grabbed her bag and quickly left the Su residence, heading towards Jinling University.
In the most luxurious hotel within Jinling University's guesthouse, Chen Yang sat on the sofa, looking at Liu Ran beside him with a dispirited expression.
He grumbled, "Wife, why do we have to bring Su Ya, this third wheel, on our date?"
Liu Ran chuckled and quickly walked over, reaching out to pat Chen Yang's head.
Liu Ran, with a hint of apology in her voice, said to Chen Yang, "I'm sorry, Chen Yang. Although I am your legally married wife, I'm really not ready yet."
"It has nothing to do with you, Chen Yang. It's simply because we've been together for too short a time, and everything has happened too suddenly for me."
"I truly think you're a good person, and I do have a little bit of affection for you, but this affection is definitely not at a level where we can do 'that sort of thing.'"
Liu Ran's voice grew softer as she spoke, her face flushing, her head nearly buried in her chest.
Hearing Liu Ran's heartfelt words, Chen Yang felt a surge of excitement and smiled inwardly.
Even though Liu Ran only had a little affection for him, it at least represented goodwill and a significant opportunity for the future.
Moreover, it wouldn't be too long before he could legitimately become Liu Ran's true husband.
Chen Yang smiled and said, "I understand, I understand. But don't worry, wife, I won't do anything to you without your consent. You can rest assured."
Liu Ran nodded, then chuckled again and stepped back a few paces. "I used to trust you quite a bit, but today I feel like your eyes are practically glowing green. I'm a little uncertain. Let's call Su Ya over, then you won't dare to do anything bad to me, hee hee hee."
As Liu Ran finished speaking, the doorbell rang. Upon opening the door, they found Su Ya entering.
Su Ya, carrying her bag, first embraced Liu Ran tightly and said, "Junior Liu Ran, it feels so good to see you again, to see you alive."
Liu Ran looked puzzled, not understanding what Su Ya was talking about. She was unaware of what Su Ya had gone through today.
Su Ya's gaze then fell on Chen Yang, and a smile played on her lips.
She walked towards Chen Yang, her voice filled with triumph, "Hahaha, Chen Yang, do you still want to hide your identity? I know who you really are."
"You scoundrel, you've made our Liu Ran suffer too much."
Liu Ran, standing beside her, tugged at Su Ya's arm and asked, "Sister Su Ya, what are you talking about? What hidden identity? What identity is Chen Yang hiding?"
Su Ya nodded proudly, "Junior Liu Ran, you don't know yet, do you? In fact, your husband Chen Yang's true identity is..."
Chen Yang, extremely tense, suddenly stood up and pointed at Su Ya indignantly, "Su Ya, I saved you! Don't spread rumors. You're not allowed to say baseless things..."
