Chapter 356


    After Qin Muchen finished speaking, he stared fixedly at Su Ziyue, whose mind was aplete nk.


    So, his biological parents were Gong Shuzhe and Qin Li. Her father went to jail because he was framed


    by others for Qin Li’s death, and it was very likely that Gong Shuzhe was involved.


    Seeing that she was silent, Qin Muchen appeared a little nervous as he said, "I nned to tell you all


    about it once everything became clear." However, he didn''t expect that things would get out of his


    control. Perhaps everything was already deviating from his expectations the moment he received the


    DNAparison report with Gong Shuzhe.


    Despite that, he thought that the person who sent him the mail was merely going against him. However,


    right now, he finally understood that that person was indeed targeting him. Still, Su Ziyue would be


    implicated anytime if he was being targeted.


    Staring at him nkly, she asked, "So you deliberately got close to him before this because you


    already knew that he was your father?"


    Almost immediately, he answered, "Yes, I knew about it many years ago that Gong Shuzhe is my


    biological father."


    Fixing her gaze on him, her eyes slowly turned sharp as she inquired in an abnormally calm manner,


    "So what else do you know?" Besides the fact that Gong Shuzhe was his biological father, he must


    have known about other things as well. His habit of hiding things from her hadn''t changed at all.


    Just then, the door to the office opened with a creak, and Feng Xingyan appeared at the door. Both of


    them turned to look at the direction of the entrance simultaneously, but it was Su Ziyue who reacted


    first by springing upright from the couch and greeted him, "Uncle Xingyan."


    Feng Xingyan nodded slightly and walked over as his eyes fell on Qin Muchen nonchntly. Then, he


    turned his head quickly to her. "I have something to discuss with you."


    "Why don’t you head home first? We''ll talk tonight," she said, looking at Qin Muchen.


    Qin Muchen cast a look at Feng Xingyan and disdain shed quickly in his eyes. "Yeah, I''ll make a


    move first. I’ll pick you up after work."


    She didn''t make a reply to him, and he stared at her stubbornly as if he wouldn''t leave until he received


    one. "I got it," she responded with a hint of annoyance. With that, Qin Muchen left satisfied.


    Gong Shuzhe was a very delicate topic between them, so the exposure of this matter would ultimately


    affect them significantly. After he left the ce, Qin Muchen didn''t return home immediately; there were


    many loose ends to tie up after his rtionship with Gong Shuzhe became public.


    …


    Feng Xingyan only sat down after Qin Muchen had left, and he threw a copy of the newspaper on the


    coffee table. He spoke in his usual warm voice with a weird smile on his face, "This must be the most


    interesting news of the year."


    Su Ziyue took a nce and saw that it was a news report about the rtionship between Qin Muchen


    and Gong Shuzhe. She could imagine that this news would be the talk of the town for the next few days


    toe.


    However, she was a little put off with Feng Xingyan''s tone and asked calmly, "So are you here to speak


    about this with me?"


    Missing the hint that she had no intention of speaking about this with him, Feng Xingyan raised his


    eyebrows and asked perplexedly, "Aren''t you surprised by this?"


    "I''ve known about this since a long time ago, so I''m not surprised at all," she replied, furrowing her


    brows as her disgust for him grew. This is not his usual self. Something seems a little odd about him


    today. Su Ziyue didn''t know why she had to lie. Maybe it was because she felt ufortable. After all,


    he had guessed it correctly that she didn''t know about this beforehand.


    A trace of anger shed across Feng Xingyan’s face. Su Ziyue turned to the side, not wanting to look at


    him as she said, "If there''s nothing else, I still have work to do." Right now, this was thest thing that


    she wanted to speak about with anyone.


    With narrowed eyes, Feng Xingyan crossed his arms and leaned back before saying something which


    agitated her. "Really? Then did he tell you that your father was set up and sent to jail because of Gong


    Shuzhe? And that was why you lost your father at such a young age and had to go through so much of


    hardships in the Su Family?"


    When he finished, he stared hard at her with an almost cruel look on his face and continued, "The man


    you married, who you wish to spend the rest of your life with, is the son of your enemy."


    Her face froze and it took her a long while before she could reply in a dry voice, "This has nothing to do


    with Qin Muchen."


    "Yes, it has nothing to do with him, so you can stay with him peacefully," he said with a mocking smile


    and nced at the newspaper. Pointing a finger at it, he said, "Take a look at how simr Qin Muchen


    looks like Gong Shuzhe."


    …


    When it was time to leave work, Qin Muchen arrived on the dot at Yanyue Media to pick up Su Ziyue.


    He waited for her for twenty minutes before she finally made her way down. Leaning against the hood


    of his car, he held a cigarette between his fingers without lighting it up. Maybe his addiction was acting


    up again and it was a little unbearable.


    Su Ziyue stared at him from far, and he caught her stare after a few seconds. Quickening her steps,


    she muttered, "Let''s go." With that, she got into the car.


    On the way back, Qin Muchen drove carefully while she stared outside the window, each absorbed in


    their own thoughts without saying a word. The car came to a stop when they reached their ce.


    Unable to hold it back any longer, she asked him again, "So what else do you know?"


    Qin Muchen, who was in the midst of unbuckling his seatbelt, froze. It was the same question she


    asked him in the afternoon.


    "What did you find out this whole time when you were investigating… him?" She hesitated before


    finishing her sentence because she found it weird to use Gong Shuzhe''s full name in front of him. After


    all, that man was his father. When he didn''t reply, she pressed on, "Did you know that he was


    connected to my father from the beginning? Was that the reason why there was no progress when you


    helped me to find out about my father''s case two years ago? You were lying to me this whole time! MyProperty ? N?velDrama.Org.


    father was the most innocent person! You have no idea how kind he is. You—let go of me!"


    Qin Muchen grabbed her tightly. "Calm down."


    "I can''t calm down!" she yelled. "You''ve been lying to me since the beginning about everything. I told


    you everything about my father because I thought that you''ll definitely be able to find out something


    since you''re so capable. But you told me that it''s difficult because such a long time has passed. Was it


    really difficult?"


    Qin Muchen''s brows knitted together. "Su Ziyue."


    "I only want you to answer me this, was there really no progress in the investigations because such a


    long time has passed? Or, was it because it had something to do with Gong Shuzhe, your biological


    father? Tell me!" Her eyes were red as she stared at him with tears filling up her eyes.
