—She is my mother.
Qin Muchen uttered this answer that he had expected in his heart, and Su Ziyue felt a moment of panic in his heart.
Su Ziyue's hand on the quilt unconsciously tightened, holding the quilt tightly, her voice was a little erratic: "Is she your mother?"
Qin Li, Qin Muchen's mother?
Victim in Dad's case.
She thought that she had asked Qin Muchen to help her investigate her father's affairs before, but now that she thought about it, she felt extremely absurd.
Seeing that Su Ziyue's expression was wrong, Qin Mushen reached out to grab her hand.
However, Su Ziyue withdrew her hand abruptly, her voice was a little shrill: "So, the reason why you approached me in the first place was because of your mother's case? What exactly do you want to do?"
Qin Muchen's hands were empty, and his eyes darkened slightly.
Su Ziyue stared at him closely: "Speak!"
Qin Muchen looked at her seriously, and said in a calm voice, "Yes, I don't deny that the first time I approached you was indeed because of my mother's case. That case was full of doubts back then, but I had no way to find out at that time. Grandpa sent people to handle the funeral affairs, and I know very little about the case."
Su Ziyue took a deep breath, turned her gaze out of the window, and did not look at Qin Muchen.
Regarding Qin Muchen's frankness, Su Ziyue didn't know what to say.
After a while, she turned her head to look at Qin Muchen: "So, getting close to me is also one of the methods you use to investigate this case?"
Her words made Qin Muchen frown slightly.
"Even if I don't reopen the case, I'll come to you."
Su Ziyue did not speak, doubts flashed across his eyes.
From the very beginning, Qin Muchen appeared mysteriously in her field of vision, almost perfect, but clinging to her side like a ruffian, unable to drive him away.
She didn't believe that he insisted on being with her because of her face and because they slept together.
Even if Qin Muchen was just trying to find out the old case, he didn't need to go this far.
Su Ziyue asked him: "Why?"
Qin Muchen's voice was a little soft, with a hint of nostalgia: "I saw you a long time ago."
Qin Muchen recalled a day more than ten years ago, when he came home from school, his mother asked him happily, "How about finding a sister for you?"
Then, he met Su Ziyue.
It was his mother who took him to see it secretly.
Su Ziyue, who is eight or nine years old, looks pink and tender, with princess hair combed, wearing a pink dress, like a little lady.
Those eyes are big and bright, and when they smile, they are like peach blossoms in spring, so brilliant that they burn their eyes.
His mother asked him: "Is it beautiful? Isn't it cute?"
The mother was full of joy and seemed to like Su Ziyue very much.
Just like, mother likes Su Ziyue's father, Su Yizhi.
Su Ziyue didn't understand what he meant by his nonsensical words, and asked him, "What?"
"My mother grew up in the Mogwen family, but she has the most willful personality. After she became an adult, she returned to China. She gave birth to me at a very young age. I never saw my father until I was ten years old. When she was three years old, she came to Yunzhou City, met your father, and she told me that she wanted to start a family again."
When Qin Muchen said this, he stopped and looked at Su Ziyue.
Su Ziyue was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and asked him uncertainly, "You mean, back then, your mother and my father were lovers?"
After finishing speaking, she seemed to deny herself again, shaking her head again and again and said: "Impossible, if this is the case, I can't remember everything, and my father will not hide it from me."
"Yes, it is impossible for your father to hide it from you, because he has never accepted my mother's pursuit. He loves you very much and was afraid that you would not adapt, but later, he was still moved by my mother. They planned, that charity dinner After that, I will bring you out and formally meet with us."
Qin Muchen's voice suddenly stopped.
After the charity dinner, they never had the chance to meet again.
Qin Li died, Su Yizhi became a suspect, Su Ziyue knew nothing about it, Qin Muchen was picked up by someone sent by his grandfather.
They failed to reorganize the family.
And Su Ziyue, who was supposed to be held in Su Yizhi's palm and raised like a little princess, entered the Su family.
Qin Yuchuan was also extremely sad because of Qin Li's death, so he took Qin Muchen away and refused to let him return to the country.
And Qin Muchen did not return to China, but he did not live in Mogwen Castle either.
The hand of fate turned the clouds and rain, changing the lives of two people.
Su Ziyue pursed her lips slightly, thinking of the most important point...
"You...don't believe it, it was my father who killed your mother?"
Qin Muchen shook his head, patted her head comfortingly, and said in a calm voice, "Well, I don't believe it, just like you believe in your father, I also believe in my mother's vision."
Perhaps, he had indeed suspected that Su Yizhi was a hypocrite, possibly the real murderer.
However, because of Su Ziyue, he was also shaken.
A series of recent events, as well as the information in his hands, proved that Su Yizhi was indeed not the culprit.
The real murderer is someone else.
The real murderer not only killed Qin Li, but also killed Su Yizhi.
"How stupid?"
Seeing that Su Ziyue had been silent all this time, Qin Mu Shen stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, and patted her on the back lightly.
He was actually afraid that she would blame him.
If it wasn't for knowing their mother and son, if it wasn't for Qin Li's death, Su Yizhi might still be alive now.
And Su Ziyue can also grow up smoothly and happily, and will not suffer unnecessary suffering in the Su family.
After all, in his heart, he always owed Su Ziyue a debt.
This is also the fundamental reason why he decided to take care of her from the very beginning and never thought of divorcing her.
Su Ziyue looked up at him: "Then why, when I asked you at first, you refused to tell me?"
Qin Muchen hesitated for a moment before asking: "If I told you this from the beginning, are you sure you wouldn't hate me?"
Hearing this, Su Ziyue lowered her eyes slightly and said nothing.
Silence signifies approval.
If Qin Muchen told her these things from the beginning, she would definitely not be able to accept him.
When he didn't tell her these things, to her, he was just a man with a mysterious and almost perfect identity.
And when he told her this from the very beginning, he was someone related to her father's case to her, so it was hard to guarantee that she would not anger him.
Unexpectedly, he thought so much at the beginning.
The two snuggled together, each silent, and did not speak again.
After a while, Su Ziyue suddenly remembered another thing.
She asked him aloud, "Did you look for Su Yuanming that day?"
Qin Muchen's body froze slightly imperceptibly, without denying it, he said frankly, "Yes."
Su Ziyue bit her lip and said, "Then... where is my father now?"
