Half an hour later, the butler hurried into the living room. Seeing the butler return, Chu Yanan hurriedly went up, grabbed the butler's arm, and asked, "Butler, how did it go? Did you find out? What's the reason?"

The butler glanced at Chu Yanan but didn't speak. Instead, he walked over to Elder Chu and, looking at him, finally said, "Master, it has been found out."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Chu Chengbi asked.

"Because, because," the butler was a bit worried, occasionally glancing at the elder and speaking hesitantly.

"Speak," Chu Chengbi ordered directly.

"The person who issued the order to cancel Mr. Ye's governorship qualification is, is, Young Master Haoxuan," the butler said, looking at Elder Chu, fearing that he would get angry.

"What? It was Haoxuan?" Chu Chengbi couldn't believe the result. Yan Bin was Haoxuan's nephew. Why would Haoxuan issue such an order to block Yan Bin's future?

"You, what did you say?" Chu Yanan was also a bit shocked and continued to ask, "Was it Haoxuan who issued the order?"

The butler looked at Chu Yanan, didn't speak, but nodded seriously, confirming his answer. When he first learned of this, he couldn't believe it either. After confirming several times, he dared to come back and tell the elder about it.

Chu Yanan suddenly became even more agitated and hurried over to the elder, "Grandpa, grandpa, how could it be Haoxuan? Yan Bin is his nephew. Why would he do such a thing?"

Chu Yanan simply couldn't figure out what was going on.

Chu Chengbi also fell into deep thought. What exactly was his beloved grandson doing this time?

Why would anyone be against their own nephew? If it were just a bit of mischief or a game, knowing my grandson as I do, he's not that kind of person. But why would he do this? After a long while, Chu Yannan suddenly spoke, 'I know, it must be because of that woman, Shen Ningxuan.' As soon as Chu Yannan finished speaking, Grandpa Chu was still in a daze, completely puzzled about what was going on. Chu Yannan continued, 'All of this is Shen Ningxuan's doing. Shen Ningxuan is a vixen. She seduced our Yanbin before, and after finally leaving him, she has now married into the Chu family. Not only that, but she has also corrupted Haoxuan, turning him against his own nephew. Grandpa, all of this is Shen Ningxuan's fault.' Chu Yannan's hatred for Shen Ningxuan grew deeper. This shameless woman, after marrying into the Chu family, hadn't said anything, yet she dared to be against her own son. Was she tired of living? Chu Chengbi was still pondering, unable to understand why his beloved grandson would order to stop his great-grandson, and he couldn't help but believe a bit of what Chu Yannan said, because he really couldn't find any other reason to explain this matter. At this moment, Chu Chengbi looked out the window towards the yard and suddenly saw Lu Yu's figure. What was this kid doing back at the family compound at this time? 'Lu Yu,' Chu Chengbi suddenly called out. Standing in the yard, Lu Yu looked towards the window, saw Grandpa Chu's face, and quickly replied with a smile, 'Hello, Grandpa Chu.'

"Come here, I have something to ask you," Chu Chengbi ordered in a commanding tone. "Oh," Lu Yu was a bit puzzled. Why was the old master looking for him when Chu Haoxuan wasn't back? Although he thought this way, Lu Yu still obediently entered the Chu family's door. Walking into the living room, he saw Chu Yanan and Ye Lianghan there as well, and he politely greeted them, "Sister Yanan and brother-in-law are here too." Chu Yanan didn't pay attention to Lu Yu; her son's matter was the most important, and she didn't have the mood to bother with others. Ye Lianghan nodded slightly in response to Lu Yu's greeting. Lu Yu approached the old master and respectfully asked, "Grandpa, is there anything wrong?" "Why did you come back alone? Where is Haoxuan?" Chu Chengbi asked. "Oh, I came back to get some things. I'll leave in a while. Haoxuan is still busy with the army. He's been quite occupied recently and probably won't be back for a while," Lu Yu replied politely, noticing that the old master's face seemed a bit stiff, presumably his mood wasn't any better. Chu Chengbi nodded and was about to speak when Chu Yanan preemptively asked Lu Yu, "Lu Yu, tell me, was it Shen Ningxuan, that vixen, who instigated Haoxuan to order the cancellation of Yan Bin's gubernatorial candidacy?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu immediately realized what was going on. It turned out that Chu Yannan and Ye Lianghan had come to the Chu family regarding Ye Yanbin's gubernatorial position. It seemed that everyone was aware of the situation. Lu Yu didn't respond but looked towards the old master. He could ignore Chu Yannan and Ye Lianghan like Chu Haoxuan, but he couldn't disregard the old master, after all, he was the elder of the Chu family. 'Answer Yannan's question,' Chu Chengbi also wanted to know what was really going on. Lu Yu must know what was happening, right? 'Grandpa, I really don't know about this matter. I haven't been with Haoxuan these past few days, so I don't know what's going on on his side,' Lu Yu had no intention of telling the truth. He wasn't so much afraid of the old master as he truly feared Haoxuan. At the same time, as Haoxuan's buddy, of course, he had to stand by Haoxuan's side in everything, even if it meant speaking for Haoxuan in front of the old master. 'Given your relationship, how could you not know what he's done?' Chu Chengbi didn't believe Lu Yu's words at all, knowing that Lu Yu was covering for Haoxuan, but now was the time to solve the problem, not the time for him to show loyalty. Chu Chengbi said seriously, 'Or do you want me to ask the granddaughter-in-law to come and ask?' Lu Yu didn't dare to speak. He really didn't dare to say anything without Haoxuan's permission. If something happened, he couldn't bear the responsibility. After a long while, seeing that Lu Yu didn't speak, Chu Chengbi slightly turned his head and said to the butler beside him, 'Go, invite the granddaughter-in-law back. I want to ask her.'

"Yes," the butler said, and then he walked out. Seeing the situation, Lu Yu thought to himself that this was bad. If he didn't tell Chu Haoxuan now, something would definitely happen. Looking at the old master's complexion and Chu Yanan's anger, if Shen Ningxuan arrived, something would surely occur. Lu Yu quietly took out his phone and sent three consecutive text messages to Chu Haoxuan, telling him to hurry back because there was an emergency at home. An hour later, a car stopped in the family compound. The butler got out of the car and opened the door for Shen Ningxuan, who stepped out of the vehicle. When Shen Ningxuan walked into the living room and saw the people there, she was also greatly surprised. What was going on? Were Chu Yanan and Ye Lianghan here for her? And Lu Yu was there too, but where was Chu Haoxuan? Why couldn't she see him? Shen Ningxuan suppressed her curiosity and still approached politely, greeting the old master, "Grandpa, hello." Chu Chengbi looked at this granddaughter-in-law and nodded; she was still so gentle. "Ningxuan, Grandpa wants to ask you something," Chu Chengbi said. "Yes, Grandpa, what is it?" Shen Ningxuan replied. "Did you ask Haoxuan to cancel Yan Bin's gubernatorial candidacy?" Chu Chengbi asked directly. "What?" Shen Ningxuan was clearly startled. What was going on? When did this happen? How could she not know anything about it? Seeing Shen Ningxuan's reaction, Chu Yanan suddenly became angry and strode up to Shen Ningxuan, saying angrily, "Shen Ningxuan, what are you pretending to be so noble for?"

Haoxuan would never go against his own nephew. If it weren't for you making Haoxuan do this, how could he have done such a thing? You vixen, now that you've married into the Chu family and have Haoxuan to back you up, do you think you can be fearless of anything?" Shen Ningxuan shook her head helplessly, "I have no idea what you're talking about. Governor Ye Yanbin's qualification was cancelled? Did I make Haoxuan do this?" Shen Ningxuan was completely confused. She was still at work when the butler asked her to come back, and she didn't expect to encounter such a scene upon her return. Who exactly had she offended? "Shen Ningxuan, don't lie with your eyes wide open. Admit what you've done," Chu Yanan said, each word intended to humiliate Shen Ningxuan. "I haven't done anything. What should I admit?" Shen Ningxuan also became agitated. How could she tolerate such baseless accusations? "Didn't do anything?" Chu Yanan retorted, and as soon as she finished speaking, she slapped Shen Ningxuan hard across the face. Shen Ningxuan had not expected Chu Yanan to hit her and was caught completely off guard, falling to the ground. "What are you doing?"

Lu Yu suddenly spoke sharply, 'Is it a bit too much for her to hit Shen Ningxuan in front of me?' 'Stop,' the old man also shouted at this moment, and Chu Yanan was so frightened that she quickly stepped back several steps. Chu Chengbi looked at Shen Ningxuan squatting on the ground, feeling somewhat heartache. He loved his grandson, and now that he had a granddaughter-in-law, he cherished her too. Although he was a bit angry that Chu Yanan had hit Shen Ningxuan, Chu Yanan was also his grandson, and he couldn't just hit Chu Yanan. 'Grandpa, this woman is shameless. She did such a thing and still won't admit it. Today she has hindered Yan Bin's future, maybe tomorrow she will find a way to take Yan Bin's life. This woman is too terrifying, I can't let her go,' Chu Yanan said, staring fiercely at Shen Ningxuan on the ground, wanting to hit her. Lu Yu saw Chu Yanan's intention and immediately stepped forward, standing in front of Chu Yanan, not allowing her to touch Shen Ningxuan. Since Chu Haoxuan was not here now, he would protect his wife on behalf of Chu Haoxuan. At this moment, suddenly a loud braking sound came from the family compound, and the eyes of Chu Chengbi, Lu Yu, and Chu Yanan in the living room all turned to look out the window at the yard. Seeing Chu Haoxuan hurriedly getting out of the car, Chu Yanan couldn't help but shiver. Lu Yu's face showed a smile, thinking, 'Chu Haoxuan, you finally came back, I almost couldn't handle such a scene.' Chu Chengbi's face didn't change much, but he thought to himself, since the grandson is back, this matter will definitely be clarified.
