Da Bao was rather calm and did not imagine any scenarios.

However, Xiao Bao was different. He immediately thought of the plots that he had seen in the movies and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

What was going on?

“Mommy, it can’t be. Did you kill Mo Lin?”

“I know, he’s been looking for us recently, but killing people is against the law. You even took his money, are you looking for trouble?”

Xiao Bao started to talk to himself. He looked at Su Qing with a face full of fear, as if to say he did not understand how his mother could do such a thing.

Su Qing was speechless and cold sweat dripped down her back.

“Idiot, I didn’t.” Su Qing quickly waved her hand. What kind of nonsense was in this child’s head?

“You didn’t? Then where did the money come from?” Xiao Bao was scared to tears. He could not help but feel uncomfortable.

He sighed and grabbed Su Qing’s clothes tightly. “No matter what Mommy did, Xiao Bao will not give up on you.”

The corners of Su Qing’s mouth twitched. That was not right. Was this child planning to visit her in prison?

“Stop!” Su Qing could not take it anymore and stare at him helplessly. She sighed and said, “Why didn’t you listen to what I said? I’ll say it again, Mo Lin isn’t dead.”

“Then this money?” Xiao Bao thought to himself, the money was brought from upstairs by Su Qing and this was all her doing.

“We made a deal and he gave me the money. As for the other guesses, they are all untrue. You have watched too many TV dramas for your age! Stop fantasizing!!”

Su Qing thought to herself that it was best not to let Xiao Bao watch any more of the suspenseful films that adults watched.

Otherwise, he would be corrupted.

“Is that true?” Xiao Bao still felt very suspicious and did not know if she meant what she said.

“Of course, there’s no need to lie to you. Besides, don’t you know that there’s blood when you kill people? There’s not a single trace of struggle on my body.”

Su Qing stared into Xiao Bao’s eyes and said very sincerely.

Xiao Bao nodded. He understood Mommy’s every move. Su Qing did not look like she was lying.

However, he still felt that something was wrong. There was too much money. What kind of deal did they make?

“Then Mommy, I want to ask, what kind of deal did you make?” Xiao Bao leaned close to Su Qing and asked curiously.

Su Qing’s gaze was helpless, and she immediately rolled her eyes at him. This child was asking too many questions.

“This is between us adults, so children shouldn’t ask so much.” Su Qing didn’t want to reveal any more.

The more she tried to hide, the more Xiao Bao felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, he thought of another point.

Could it be that Mo Lin had given Su Qing a sum of money to keep her mouth shut?

Their father was killed by Mo Lin, so he had to give money to Su Qing.

“Mommy, I understand now. Did Mo Lin kill our father? He gave you money so that you would never investigate this matter.”

Xiao Bao’s eyes reddened as he asked with great heartache.

Su Qing had never thought that his imagination would be so rich.

“No!” She was driven mad by Xiao Bao. She did not know what to do.

“Nothing else is happening. Don’t think too much. Let’s go back first.” Su Qing saw that they had already reached the hotel and hurriedly urged the two of them to get off the car..
