Shu Qinger still held a grudge against Yuan Xuan for wanting to marry Mu Chenyan back then. Otherwise, she would not have pretended to be crazy and moved into Zong He just to force Yuan Xuan to give up on this engagement.
However, she had underestimated Yuan Xuan's persistence in marrying Mu Chenyan.
Even under those circumstances, Yuan Xuan had insisted on marrying Mu Chenyan. This was why she had escaped from Zong He in a fit of anger to scare Yuan Xuan.
At that time, Shu Qinger had no money on her. She had reluctantly sought refuge in City C, but she had not expected that she would be defiled by her beastly stepfather …
In order to trap her for his pleasure, that bastard of a man had lied to Zhao Yanni. He had injected her with a tranquilizer and said that she had lost her mind. Then, he had asked Ruoxin to replace her and return to Luo Hai.
There was also that disgusting Xia Tao. In order to use his power to get rid of her stepfather, Qinger had accompanied him for almost two years.
During this period, the only news that made her slightly happier was that after Zhao Ruoxin's death, Mu Chenyan had been arrested as the murderer. However, Yuan Xuan had not helped her.
As Mu Chenyan was in jail, Qinger silently thought to herself that perhaps Yuan Xuan truly loved her.
After her stepfather's death, she could not return to Luo Hai. She could not explain that Qinger had died. Why did a person who had been resurrected from the dead not return to Luo Hai for the past two years? Although the things that she had experienced in City C were kept a secret and she had used Zhao Ruoxin's identity, she only wanted Yuan Xuan to see a clean Ruoxin.
She was afraid that Yuan Xuan would find out that she had been defiled by two old men.
Later on, she received help from Mr. Shadow and broke away from Xia Tao's shackles. She used a new identity and moved into the Yuan Family. However, she saw Mu Chenyan, who was firmly in the position of Mrs. Yuan.
Everything did not go as she had expected. When Yuan Xuan saw his twin sister, who looked exactly like Qinger, he would fall in love with her.
It could be seen from the trip to Liu Li Villa that Qinger was unwilling to give up. She tried to probe Yuan Xuan again and again, but Yuan Xuan only cared for Mu Chenyan to an extent that far exceeded her imagination.
Shu Qinger's inner world crumbled a little when she thought about these past events.
From her point of view, Mu Chenyan was the reason why she had been through so many hardships.
If not for her, the title of Mrs Yuan would have undoubtedly belonged to her since they were childhood sweethearts and had grown up together.
"Mu Chenyan, what do you have to be superior about? Don't you know why Yuan Xuan married you? I think you only heard half of what Mu Chenwu said to you in the cemetery, right? Otherwise, how shameless do you have to be to roll in the sheets with Yuan Xuan when he's carrying the title of the murderer of his father? "
Shu Qinger was slightly flustered and exasperated. She did not choose her words carefully.
When Mu Chenyan heard Qinger's angry words, the suspicions in her heart about some of the things that had happened before slowly began to be confirmed.
"You're also in contact with my brother?"
Mu Chenyan's eyes revealed a sharp glint. Qinger's expression had already changed after she calmly asked that question.
She knew that she had made a slip of the tongue and appeared extremely flustered. "How … How would I be in contact with him?"
Qinger's expression had already betrayed her.
She could not admit that the Mr. Shadow who had brought her out of City C was Mu Chenwu …
Mu Chenwu had photos of her and Xia Tao in bed together in City C. That was why she was willing to be controlled by him …
Mu Chenyan increasingly felt that her brother had purposely arranged for her to meet Mu Chenwu's grave.
Previously, Yuan Zhe had mocked and ridiculed her during the family banquet. He seemed to know about Mu Chenwu's return like the back of his hand. Now, Qinger also seemed to know about the contents of the conversation between her and Mu Chenwu at the cemetery.
Her brother had told her that he was not in exile, right?
Why had he returned to Luo Hai and mingled with Yuan Zhe and Qinger, who were completely unrelated to him? Why hadn't he contacted him first?
"You don't have to quibble. I'll get to the bottom of this!"
Mu Chenyan's tone was very heavy. Qinger knew that the woman in front of her would definitely investigate once she became serious. She began to feel uneasy.
"If you want to investigate, it means that you don't trust your brother. It has nothing to do with me!"
"Mu Chenwu is my brother. It's not that I don't trust his words, but people need to use their brains to do things. The old case of Xi Fan happened more than ten years ago. Mu Chenwu was still young at that time. Therefore, I trust my mother more if she knows about the inside story!"
Since Shu Qinger knew that Mu Chenwu had met her at the cemetery, Mu Chenyan felt that there was no need to beat around the bush with her regardless of whether she knew more about the inside story.
In fact, Shu Qinger only knew a little about the conversation between Mu Chenwu and Mu Chenyan. The old case of Xi Fan was such a big deal. Why would Mu Chenwu tell her the details?
It turned out that Mu Chenyan had been biding her time because she saw that Yan Mei's treatment was getting better. She was waiting for Yan Mei's final answer!
"Mu Chenyan, you're really scheming!"
Shu Qinger laughed sarcastically. "It's said that it's best to play the family card. Are you even doubting your brother's words?"
"I trust my brother. It's just that there are too many ghosts around him!"
Mu Chenyan recalled that the person who delivered the letter to her was Feng Rao. Moreover, someone like Yuan Zhe also knew about it. There were indeed too many suspicious points!
Shu Qinger laughed bitterly. "If we're talking about scheming, you're not any worse than others, are you, Mu Chenyan?"
"No matter how smart I am, there's one thing I can't figure out."
Mu Chenyan's tone was very indifferent. It was not like how she was just now.
Shu Qinger smiled faintly. "There's also something you can't figure out?"
"Since you've returned to Luo Hai, why don't you dare to admit that you're Shu Qinger? After all, this identity in the Yuan Family is better than Zhao Ruoxin's!"
All of Mu Chenyan's suspicions lay in this.
Shu Qinger sneered. "You want to know too much. Since you want to know so much, why don't you ask Yuan Xuan yourself?"
What did this have to do with Yuan Xuan?
If it was as Shu Qinger said, Yuan Xuan owed her an important favor. What was so difficult about admitting that she was Shu Qinger?
Would it not be easier for her to get close to Yuan Xuan than Zhao Ruoxin if she admitted to it and used Yuan Xuan's mentality of remembering their past relationship?
While Mu Chenyan's imagination was running wild, she suddenly heard Tian Qi shout from nearby, "Sir, over here!"
The door was dimly lit. The man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. The sleeves of his shirt were casually rolled up to the crook of his arm.
It was obvious that he had come in a hurry and did not have time to tidy up his clothes. However, this did not affect his handsome appearance at all.
Yuan Xuan's figure was tall and straight. The moment he walked into the coffee shop, he attracted countless gazes.
Yuan Xuan's gaze fell on the two women in the corner. He strode over.
Mu Chenyan could not help but panic in front of him. She did not know why, but when she saw Yuan Xuan appear, it seemed like he was doing something behind her back again. The feeling of having her small hand pressed down on the spot was more or less unpleasant.
It was just like the last time when they were in danger in City C. The man's gaze and appearance when he got off the plane.
"The two of you came to drink coffee and you didn't even invite me?"
Yuan Xuan glanced at Mu Chenyan from the corner of his eyes as he spoke. His body had already leaned over.
His long arm wrapped around her shoulders. The two women who had been struggling with their conspiracies immediately lost their thoughts.
As long as Yuan Xuan was present, it was better for everything to be fine.
Tian Qi, who was standing at the side, was untactful. He said in a muffled voice, "Sir, it's good that you're here. Mistress and Young Mistress were arguing until their faces were red and they even dropped their lighters. I was still thinking whether I should hit Young Mistress if we were to fight."
Mu Chenyan was speechless.
Shu Qinger was speechless.
