"I …" Zheng Yuru didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
It wasn't that she didn't want to deny it, but at this point, it was useless to deny it because she had already said it.
"Are you still not going to tell me the truth?" Yuan Wenye snapped at her.
Zheng Yuru knew that she had to avoid the topic, so she decided to go all out. "Yes, I know that Song Yang killed Zhao Xiaoxi. I hate Zhao Xiaoxi, and I want her to die. Her existence is a shame to me, and it reminds me of your betrayal. However, I have no intention of killing her from the beginning to the end. It was just an accident. I just wanted Song Yang to abandon Zhao Xiaoxi. Song Yang killed her himself. It has nothing to do with me. "
Of course, she didn't tell the truth.
Although she didn't intend to kill Zhao Xiaoxi in the beginning, she wanted to make her suffer. Zhao Xiaoxi's death was just an accident.
However, Zheng Yuru felt guilty because she had caused Zhao Xiaoxi's death after all.
Hearing that Zheng Yuru mentioned betrayal, Yuan Wenye felt a little guilty. It was indeed his fault, and he knew that Zheng Yuru had been hurt because of it, so he wasn't mad at her anymore.
However, it was a serious matter now, and he couldn't let it go just because of that. "You could have just told her to leave the capital. Why did you have to kill her? I know it's my fault, but didn't you agree to let it go? "
"Yes, I agreed to let it go, but it's always been a thorn in my heart. I just can't let it go. Anyway, Zhao Xiaoxi has been dead for so long, and Song Yang, who killed Zhao Xiaoxi, is also dead. Are you still going to pursue the matter with me? " Zheng Yuru said. She dared to talk to Yuan Wenye like that, because she believed that Yuan Wenye wouldn't really punish her.
It wasn't that Zheng Yuru thought that Yuan Wenye loved her so much that he wouldn't punish her, but they didn't love each other at all.
She believed that Yuan Wenye wouldn't punish her for the sake of his children.
In addition, Yuan Wenye needed his reputation, so he wouldn't cause a scene.
"You …" Yuan Wenye was mad. Although he was mad, he couldn't do anything about it.
Just as Zheng Yuru said, Zhao Xiaoxi had been dead for a long time, and Song Yang, who killed Zhao Xiaoxi, was also dead, so it could be considered to have made up for it.
Although Zheng Yuru and Gu Ning couldn't get away with it, Gu Ning didn't want to punish Zheng Yuru for the sake of his children and reputation.
Most importantly, he didn't have any feelings for Zhao Xiaoxi, so she wasn't that important.
But even if he had no feelings for Zhao Xiaoxi, and no matter how unimportant Zhao Xiaoxi was to him, she was still his daughter. She had been killed by the person she slept with and had hidden it from him for so long. He was still very angry and would feel uncomfortable. So even if he did not pursue the matter, he did not want to see her now.
"I won't pursue the matter because I don't want people to know that the Yuan Family is related to the murder case. I'm going to sleep in the study during this period of time," Yuan Wenye said coldly before he stood up and left the bedroom.
Looking at Yuan Wenye's back, Zheng Yuru wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. She knew that Yuan Wenye would be very angry about it, otherwise she wouldn't have kept it a secret for so long.
However, since it was exposed now, she didn't expect Yuan Wenye to forgive her right away. It was already very good that Yuan Wenye didn't pursue the matter.
However, she was worried about how much Gu Ning knew and whether she would tell others.
Therefore, Zheng Yuru didn't feel relieved just because Yuan Wenye didn't pursue the matter.
Zheng Yuru sat on the bed, and couldn't fall asleep anymore.
Mrs. Yuan also couldn't sleep that night, because what she had heard about Zhao Xiaoxi during the day was still lingering in her mind.
Because Yuan Wenye had an illegitimate daughter, she couldn't help worrying and doubting whether Yuan Wenyue also had an illegitimate child, but she didn't dare to ask about it.
On the one hand, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to accept it if she found out that Yuan Wenyue had an illegitimate child. On the other hand, she promised Zheng Yuru that she wouldn't tell others about it.
Although the relationship between sisters-in-law wasn't good, Zheng Yuru was too domineering, and Mrs. Yuan was a little weak, so she didn't dare to oppose Zheng Yuru.
If they had a bad relationship, they would have spread the news long ago if the other party did something wrong.
Moreover, thinking that Zhao Xiaoxi's death had something to do with Zheng Yuru, and Zheng Yuru was so cruel, Mrs. Yuan was extremely afraid of Zheng Yuru. She didn't know how to face Zheng Yuru in the future.
She could understand Zheng Yuru's hatred towards Zhao Xiaoxi. If she were in Zheng Yuru's shoes, she wouldn't be able to accept it either, but she didn't dare to kill someone.
Mrs. Yuan couldn't fall asleep, so she tossed and turned, waking Yuan Wenyue who was sitting next to her. After that, they heard the noise from Zheng Yuru and her husband's room.
However, the noise wasn't loud, so they couldn't hear what they were talking about. Mrs. Yuan guessed that Yuan Wenye might have found out about Zhao Xiaoxi's death.
"Why are they arguing in the middle of the night? Yuan Wenyue muttered with displeasure. Although it was normal for a couple to argue, it was annoying to hear it in the middle of the night.
"I don't know," said Mrs. Yuan.
"Are you feeling unwell somewhere?! Why are you tossing and turning? "asked Yuan Wenyue.
"No, I just can't fall asleep," said Mrs. Yuan. She couldn't talk about it with him.
Yuan Wenyue didn't care about it. He had to go to work tomorrow, so he went back to sleep.

On Monday, Gu Ning didn't go to school, but stayed with Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing to deal with the flower shop.
The name of the flower shop was Lingzhi Pavilion. Lingzhi Pavilion was named after their plants all had magical power.
In the morning, Gu Ning told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to take the flowerpots to Carefree Mountain Villa, while Gu Ning took Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing to Carefree Mountain Villa first.
The moment they walked into Carefree Mountain Villa, they sensed the magical power in the air. It came from the plants that Gu Ning and the others transplanted. Because Gu Ning and the others put power crystals on those plants, they all had magical power, but the magical power was very thin.
However, the plants with magical power were full of vitality, which was very eye-catching.
Both Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing were very happy about it.
"Wow, these plants are so beautiful and full of vitality. We can definitely sell them," said Miao Jingjing. She couldn't wait to see them.
