Zhao Yanni realized how filthy her behavior was. She lowered her head and did not dare to meet Mu Chenyan's gaze.
"Miss Mu, you definitely look down on me, don't you?"
Although Zhao Yanni's reaction was slow due to the effects of the drug and her gaze was not as lively as normal people, she could still tell the difference between people's brows.
Mu Chenyan's eyes were filled with anger when she looked at her.
She had really failed as a mother!
"Aren't you afraid that Qinger will tell the Yuan Family about this when she returns to Luo Hai?"
Mu Chenyan suppressed the anger in her heart and asked in a low voice.
"I'm afraid! Because I'm afraid, we can't let Qinger return to Luo Hai … "
Zhao Yanni's voice trembled as she continued, "That bastard, he said that if Qinger returned to Luo Hai, the matter would be exposed. He was the mastermind while Ruoxin and I were the accomplices. None of us would be able to escape!"
"So you guys thought of letting Zhao Ruoxin replace Qinger and return to Luo Hai …" Mu Chenyan had already guessed this ending.
"Ruoxin has been with Qinger for a few days so she already has some understanding of her whereabouts in Luo Hai. Qinger has been living in Zong He for a few months after returning to the country due to her poor mental state. She secretly ran away!"
Mu Chenyan was shocked when she heard this. No wonder Yuan Xuan was unwilling to reveal Qinger's whereabouts.
"Ruoxin called me not long after she returned to Luo Hai and moved into Zong He. She said that she fell in love with a man. Soon after, she told me that she's pregnant with that man's child!"
Zhao Yanni said with a regretful expression, "If I knew that the ending would be like this, I wouldn't have let Ruoxin come to Luo Hai no matter what …"
"Did the man, Ruoxin, tell you anything about that man when she was alive?"
Yuan Xuan probably did not even know who this man was.
Otherwise, after so many years, with the Yuan Family's power, how could they not have caught the murderer? This man should be a good starting point!
"At that time, Qinger was placed under house arrest by us. Ruoxin had not been in Luo Hai for long when she started secretly sending me money. She told me that the man was very powerful and that she would be able to bring Qinger and me back to Luo Hai very soon after she gave birth to a child. We would no longer have to endure that inhumane foster father anymore!"
Zhao Yanni smiled bitterly. "Not long after, something happened to Ruoxin …"
Mu Chenyan already knew what happened after that.
Most of the questions that had been on Mu Chenyan's mind for more than 700 days and nights had been answered. Yuan Xuan had once clearly told her that the child was not his.
The man that Ruoxin was dating must have made a promise to Zhao Ruoxin before, which was why she was so confident.
It was just that there were too many twists and turns that happened later on, and too many people's fates were changed!
For example, Mu Chenyan!
Mu Chenyan stood up and looked out of the window. It was a sunny day in April. The wind was gentle, and the bridge was red. It was supposed to be a warm season, but she was feeling the chill of winter.
"Then how did Qinger return to Luo Hai after that?"
Mu Chenyan did not really believe Shu Qinger's words when she first arrived at the Yuan Family.
Perhaps, Qinger had also used Xia Tao …
After all, she was staying in City C. Xia Tao used to be Zhao Ruoxin's sugar daddy. Now that Zhao Ruoxin had left, Qinger had to be the replacement.
"The money that Ruoxin sent back was discovered by that gambling addict. With the money, the more he gambled, the more savage he became. In the end, he lost his life because of gambling! Qinger and I were finally free! Not long ago, a mysterious man contacted Qinger and said that he could help Qinger return to the Yuan Family in Luo Hai. "
Mu Chenyan suddenly felt that there was something fishy about the "mysterious man". She asked, "Could it be related to the man that Ruoxin met in Luo Hai?"
Of course, Zhao Yanni was not aware of this. She shook her head in confusion. "Ruoxin didn't tell me who the man in Luo Hai was!"
Mu Chenyan's heart was suddenly in a mess.
Although she had some clues, she could not find the father of the child in Zhao Ruoxin's belly. This matter could not be considered to have any progress at all!
She was not a police officer. Luo Hai's police had also been investigating this case for so many years. Other than the problem of the deceased's identity that she had just discovered, could it be that Luo Hai's police had never found any useful information?
Mu Chenyan sighed. She felt like a private detective …
Zhao Yanni timidly looked at Mu Chenyan and asked in a low voice, "Miss Mu, there's something I'd like to ask of you."
Mu Chenyan gently said, "Tell me, I'll do my best to help you!"
"No matter what, you have to think of a way to help Qinger. She's a poor child and I've let her down. If anything happens to her in the future, you have to help her …"
As she spoke, Zhao Yanni covered her mouth and cried again.
"Aunty Zhao, when you say you want to help her, does it mean that you know the poisoning case in Zong He was done by Qinger?"
Mu Chenyan's gaze did not leave Zhao Yanni for even a moment. Her tone was extremely firm.
Zhao Yanni trembled as she shook her head. "No, it's not Qinger, it's not her …"
Zhao Yanni was a little emotional. Her face was flushed red as if she was having an intense internal struggle. She avoided Mu Chenyan's gaze and tilted her body to the side. She looked like she was trying her best to stay away from Mu Chenyan.
Mu Chenyan looked at the surveillance camera and her tone softened. She continued to ask, "Aunty, you should know whether Qinger did it or not. If you don't tell me now, I don't know how to help you!"
"You'll find a way! If you plead with Third Young Master, he'll listen to you, right? "
It turned out that Zhao Yanni was still plotting against Yuan Xuan.
"How do you know that Yuan Xuan will listen to me?" Mu Chenyan laughed bitterly. She herself did not know who was going around in circles with Yuan Xuan …
"Third Young Master Yuan only has you in his heart. He'll definitely listen to what you say! Qinger later told me that it was because Yuan Xuan wanted to marry you that she lost her mind and was admitted to Zong He … "
Mu Chenyan was dumbfounded. She took a few steps back and bumped into the chair. The overturned chair hit the corner of the table and the fruits that she had brought scattered all over the floor, making clanking sounds.
Zhao Yanni looked at the flustered Mu Chenyan and continued, "I've always known that matters between a man and a woman can't be forced. Qinger and Yuan Xuan grew up together. She's always been thinking about him! However, Qinger was unlucky. Now that something like that happened to her, how could I expect the Yuan Family to accept her as their daughter-in-law … "
"However, Qinger refused to give up. I'll tell you the truth. The reason she's returning to the Yuan Family now is to take back Yuan Xuan. I'm sure Miss Mu can tell that I'm afraid that she'll do something to hurt you in the future. I'm begging you, please forgive her on account of how pitiful we are!"
Mu Chenyan sighed softly when she heard Zhao Yanni's words. Previously, she did not understand Zhao Ruoxin's undisguised love for Yuan Xuan. Where did her confidence and courage come from? At that time, her identity was merely that of an older sister when she moved into the Yuan Family.
Now that she knew that she was the real Shu Qinger, Mu Chenyan could understand her obsession with Yuan Xuan!
"The Zong He case really has nothing to do with Qinger! I beg you, Miss Mu, no matter what, please help me take care of Qinger in the future! Although this request is unreasonable and you're not related to me, I'm very happy that you've come to see me today. I can only entrust this to you! "
Mu Chenyan did not know if it was because Zhao Yanni's expression was too sorrowful, but her heart was filled with compassion. She nodded lightly and said, "I promise you!"
