She kissed the little girl’s cheek. Despite many misfortunes over the past seven years, the joy these two darlings brought her was imasurable.
This joy allowed her to find sweetness amidst hardship, a feeling no one else could replace.
Ye Yiyi proudly spoke, "In Mommy’s heart, my brother and I are the most important. He cos behind us, right? Given the choice, you’d rather be with us than with him. Mommy, you don’t truly love him."
Ye Lu stiffened slightly. Kids always spoke plainly, but beneath the innocence was an inexplicable ring of truth.
It left her feeling bewildered.
Could it be that she didn’t truly love Gu Yan?
At this mont, Ye Yuan, who had been absent for quite a while, finally returned. His face was solemn, his expression reminiscent of Conan’s thoughtful deanor.
"Yuanyuan, keep this up, and you’ll turn into an old man. Don’t keep frowning." Ye Lu reached out to rub his face, slightly annoyed.
Ye Yuan suddenly asked, "Mommy, you told before that our dad was a soldier and that he’s dead. Is he really dead?"
Ye Lu’s hand stiffened. Why was he asking this all of a sudden?
"Of course."
"What’s his na? Who was he?"
Ye Lu beca even more rigid. Who the hell knew? She didn’t want to know.
She couldn’t bear to tell her children that they were conceived out of violence.
"Why the sudden questions? I’ll tell you later. Now go to bed. Mommy is going to take a bath." Ye Lu dashed into the bathroom as if escaping.
Ye Yuan grew even more suspicious. Seeing Mom’s evasive expression, she had no reaction to the question about their father’s na.
Apparently, Mom didn’t know who their father was.
"Brother, did you find any information?" Ye Yiyi was exhilarated.
"Crucial intel." Ye Yuan’s eyes glead with excitent. "Our biological father is still alive."
"Really?" Ye Yiyi’s eyes widened in excitent as she jumped up.
"Yes. I overheard so conversations outside the study. I didn’t hear everything clearly, but I did catch so secrets. Not only is our father still alive, but Granny Gu and that man seem to know who he is."
"Oh my gosh, that’s great! Now we can find out who our dad really is."
Ye Yiyi touched her chin craftily.
"Granny Gu treats us well and she seems to like . Hehe, I’ll find a way to get so information out of her."
"Alright."
Ye Yuan nodded, his small face serious and sharp.
"I also heard sothing about ’using’... It seems that this man indeed harbors ulterior motives towards Mommy. I’ll find evidence of him manipulating Mommy. For now, I’m trying to get into his study to look for any traces. Ideally, we could break into his computer. Maybe we’ll find sothing."
...
The next day, Ye Lu went to the police station to learn about Old Sir Shang’s death.
However, the police refused to let her check the case files, saying she was not a relevant party. Shang Jingchen didn’t allow her to look at the case clues, fearing she’d use them to evade the bla.
Ye Lu was infuriated. This fool, Shang Jingchen, was so quick to accuse her.
If she is not inford about the case, how is she supposed to investigate the truth?
"At least I should know why I’m suspected of harming Old Sir Shang. What evidence do you have?" She demanded, irritated.
The investigator did reveal, "Forensics states that the old man died around three fifty. And you happened to be at the Shang residence during that ti."
Ye Lu was taken aback, then countered sharply, "That’s absurd! I left before three thirty. The caregiver can testify to that."
