Only after asking Liu Kai did he know that they met Bai Feifei and Gu Bei’an today. Huo Yunchen was so angry that he slapped Liu Kai’s face. “You actually let Shao Nainai speak to Gu Bei’an alone? Don’t you know that this person is a mad dog? He will bite people casually” Liu Kai stood there, and obediently was slapped, without moving. “Sir, I was wrong. I will go and kill Gu Bei’an now.” He was so angry that he ran away, but was called back by Huo Yunchen.
“Is it useful? It will only make Shao Nainai more suspect that we have something to hide from her.” Huo Yunchen was furious and sat on the sofa heavily. “He likes to trouble me, so let’s trouble him. His underground casinos, KTVs, and nightclubs are always unclean, so it’s time for police to clean up. The best thing is to let him stay in the police station.” “Yes, I will make arrangements now.”
Liu Kai was about to leave, but Huo Yunchen stopped him again. “Have you not found Shen Yihan’s watch?” “Not yet, why did you look for that watch?” Liu Kai asked confusedly. Huo Yunchen looked at his watch, and said calmly. “I let people install a high-tech invisible camera in that.” Liu Kai suddenly understood that Shen Yihan was the bait, leading Gu Bei’an to reveal his guilt.
“Sir. We don’t really need to work so hard to deal with him.” “It’s easy to deal with him, but Qingqing doesn’t want me to get blood on my hands, and I don’t want to be criticized that I can’t tolerate my own brother.” Huo Yunchen said with a colder tone, and his eyes turned colder as he looked at Liu Kai. Liu Kai immediately realized that he was thinking too simple, bowed his head and hurried away.
Huo Yunchen sat in the chair for a long time, and took out the video cassette from the bottom drawer of the cabinet. He pulled out the strap inside, and burned it with fire. It would be great if bad memories can be burned out with a fire. But there were some memories, the more sad they were, the more they would be engraved in the heart, in the mind, and you can never forget. When entering the room, he deliberately relaxed his steps and sat quietly beside her.
She was already pregnant for six months, and her belly was already big. When sleeping, she couldn’t lie on her back, but on her side. He looked at her white face, the closed eyes and curling eyelashes, and stroked the broken hair on her forehead. He was looking at her quietly, for fear of waking her up, so he even breathed quietly. Bai Qingqing didn’t fall asleep at all, just closed her eyes and pretended to sleep the moment he came in.
She knew that he treated her well, loved her, and cared about her. But she still couldn’t calm down, and she couldn’t help thinking about it. That was her mother, the mother who had been scolded all her life in order to give birth to her, the mother who had suffered all her life. What was the grudge between her and Shen Qingyue? In the next few days, she was still the same as before, eating breakfast and sending Huo Yunchen to work, and her performance was normal. Both Liu Kai and Aunt Rong were relieved to think that she no longer woolgathered.
But Huo Yunchen knew that she was already suspicious of him and the people around him. The room where Shen Qingyue once lived was the same as before. But you couldn’t find any photo, and couldn’t find any clues about Shen Qingyue’s youth. It had been cleaned up, leaving no traces.
The more deliberate Huo Yunchen was, the more desperately she wanted to know the truth. After school, Tiantian looked for her mother all over the yard. He accidentally got into Shen Qingyue’s room and flipped through the room curiously. Hearing mommy’s voice, he immediately got under the bed and wanted to play hide and seek game with mommy. Bai Qingqing watched him get into this room, knowing that he must be hiding there. She began to look around the room, only under the bed she couldn’t bend down to find because of her big belly.
“Ah, where is this little thing hiding, mommy can’t find it.” Hearing mommy couldn’t find him, Tiantian felt a sense of accomplishment, and covered his mouth to prevent himself from laughing. Bai Qingqing sat on the bed slowly, patted the bed and said in a mysterious way: “There seems to be a mouse under this bed.” Tiantian was most afraid of mice, and as soon as he heard that there was a mouse, he got out quickly.
“Mommy, mommy, where is the mouse?” “You are the little mouse that got under the bed.” Bai Qingqing waved her hand to let Tiantain come over, gently patting the dust on his body. “Mommy, you lie to me, there are no mice at all, right?” “Yeah, it’s only a cheat.” Bai Qingqing said proudly, and her eyes stopped on the red notebook Tiantian holding. “What is this?” “It is picked up under the bed, mommy, you see this aunt looks like you.” Tiantian opened the notebook, and there was a photo inside. It was a photo of her mother Xia Yunshan and Shen Qingyue, and they seemed very close.
Bai Qingqing immediately opened it, and saw that it was a diary, written all over in a delicate font. “Mommy, who is the person inside?” “Mommy, what is written in it?” “Mommy, I still want to play hide-and-seek game.” Tiantian saw mommy staring at the notebook and ignoring him, so he felt very disappointed, shaking her arm again and again to attract attention. “Tiantian, stop making trouble, go play by yourself, and mommy has something to do.” Bai Qingqing took the notebook, and shut herself in the room for a long time without coming out.
She read the entire diary at a stretch, from meeting Murong Zheng to her being forced to marry. The words and sentences in it recorded the almost obsessive love of a young woman with a man. Shen Qingyue was that spoony woman, and her mother Xia Yunshan was an executioner who betrayed Shen Qingyue for money, drugged her, and then seduced her beloved man to bed, and broke up a couple of lovers. After reading it, Bai Qingqing felt pain in her heart.
No wonder Shen Qingyue didn’t like her at first sight, because she was Xia Yunshan’s daughter, and she had a face exactly like Xia Yunshan, which brought back memories of pain and humiliation. It turned out that this was the truth they had been withholding cautiously. She didn’t want to believe that this was true, and she didn’t want to believe that Xia Yunshan in there was her mother. She was angry, and desperately tore the notebook to pieces. Tiantian knocked on the door for a long time, but her mother didn’t open it. She did not open when Aunt Rong knocked on the door, so Tiantian could only call Huo Yunchen.
