After spending so much time together, although there were some things in the Qu family that Chen Meng’er did not like, most of the time, she could still feel the strong care and love from the Qu family towards her. Otherwise, she would not have specially made a trip to the Qu family today because of the Lu family’s matter.

And Chen Meng’er also knew in her heart that her grandfather, Elder Qu, would say it so clearly because he was not at ease in his heart. He wanted to get a positive answer from her, an answer that would allow him to sleep peacefully at night. “Grandpa, uncles, don’t worry. The Qu family is also my family. I will not watch helplessly as the Qu family falls into an awkward situation.”

“Haha, good. With Meng’er’s words, I will be at ease. Wifey, today is a happy day. Go and get a bottle of wine.” Elder Qu’s addiction to alcohol was triggered once he was happy.

Madam Qu did not object this time. She personally went to the wine cellar to get the wine and poured it for everyone. Of course, Chen Meng’er still had the drink in her mug.

“Come, everyone, let’s toast. Consider it a toast to the Qu family’s future,” Elder Qu said with a flushed face. It was as if victory was already in his hands. Needless to say, with Chen Meng’er’s words, Elder Qu felt that victory was definitely on the Qu family’s side.

Regarding Chen Meng’er, regardless of whether it was Elder Liu or Elder Qu, they all had an inexplicable sense of trust.

“This wine is not as good as the plum blossom wine that Meng’er brewed.” Usually, Elder Qu was reluctant to drink the special wine, but now that he drank it, it was no longer as delicious as before. Instead, it made him miss the plum blossom wine that Chen Meng’er brewed even more.

“That’s right, I also feel that ever since I drank the plum blossom wine that Meng’er brewed, this good wine from the past has changed its taste in my mouth,” Elder Liu said with a face full of reminiscence.

As for the other Qu family members, after being nagged by the two elders, they became even more curious about the plum blossom wine that Chen Meng’er personally brewed, and all of them looked at Chen Meng’er with eager eyes.

Chen Meng’er looked at the gazes that fell on her, and she felt very speechless.

“Everyone, don’t look at me like that. This plum blossom wine can only be drunk for a few more days. When the time comes, I will give everyone a small jar, and let everyone have a taste,” Chen Meng’er promised.

When Chen Meng’er said this, Qu Yaotian and the rest were happy, but Elder Liu and Elder Qu’s faces darkened. They knew how much plum blossom wine there was. Originally, the two elders were still calculating in their hearts how much each of them would get when Chen Meng’er’s plum blossom wine could be drunk.

Well, now that Qu Yaotian and the rest had split it, wouldn’t their share be a lot less. Immediately, Elder Liu and Elder Qu felt a heartache.

Elder Liu glared at Elder Qu unhappily. This fellow was just a good-for-nothing.

Elder Qu glared at him, he said, “Yaotian and the others don’t need a jar each. The five of them will split it two ways and have a taste. As for Haoxiang and the others, they are still young. Meng’er doesn’t need to give them any wine.”

Qu Yaotian and the others knew what Elder Qu was thinking. They had their own opinions about what Elder Qu said, but they couldn’t say it out loud.

Regarding the Qu family’s bid in the general election, the overall command fell to Chen Meng’er in the end.

Everyone in the Qu family, including Elder Qu, would listen to Chen Meng’er.

This time, Chen Meng’er did not shirk, because she knew that if she continued to shirk, she would appear distant.

Chen Meng’er’s actions were always swift.

On the second day after the meeting with the Qu family, she took action.

The next day, the relevant departments received an unmarked folder. It was filled with all kinds of incriminating evidence about the Lu family. It was very detailed. Even the news outlets received a copy.

The incriminating evidence of the Lu family was very clear. Even if they wanted to protect the Lu family, there was nothing they could do.

Moreover, after the news outlets received this information, they held an emergency meeting. Then, at the first moment, the headlines of all the newspapers turned into reports about the Lu family.

With the intervention of the news outlets, the Lu family’s matter became public. Those who wanted to cover up the Lu family’s matter and turn it into a small matter had no other choice.

They could only call the person at the top. “Chief, something big has happened this time.”

“What has happened?”

“I don’t know who sent the news to the media outlets about the Lu family’s matter. Moreover, the media doesn’t know what happened this time. After receiving such information, they didn’t report it to the higher-ups immediately. Instead, they boldly reported it directly. Now, the news about the Lu family has spread outside. Chief, what should we do now?”

“What? You said that the news about the Lu family has alarmed the news outlets. How is this possible?” The person at the top didn’t believe what he had heard. When did the news outlets become so bold? Such a huge piece of news was actually reported without their approval.

One had to know that the news outlets seemed to have freedom of speech. However, many news content had to go through censorship. If it was not approved, it could not be broadcast.

“Chief, today’s newspapers are out. Why don’t you go and take a look yourself?” As soon as the person on the other end finished speaking, the person on the other end hung up.

The person on the other end did not call his assistant to deliver today’s newspaper to him. He could not wait any longer. He had to quickly verify the information. He opened the door and went to look for today’s newspaper.

When he saw the eye-catching headline on the newspaper with his own eyes, his face turned green. The veins on his forehead popped out. Then, in front of everyone’s shocked eyes, he tore the newspaper apart.

The person at the top did not know that this was only the beginning. What made him anxious was still waiting for him.
