Lu Jingchen sighed and refused to talk.
Mu Siyin could not help but frown. “You can’t go back on your word, Cuz.”
As long as she could solve the misunderstanding between the Shi and the Mu families, she and Shi Beiyu would be able to get together.
Lu Jingchen shook his head helplessly and said, “I heard Grandpa talk about this before. He said that Cousin Siyun was mingling around with a married man.”
Mu Siyin was utterly shocked to hear this.
She could not believe what Lu Jingchen was saying!
She had always thought that Li Tongzhi was just defaming her sister. Never did she expect…
“A lot of people knew about this at that time. However, it died down with time and Cousin Siyun’s death. After all, it’s everyday news to wreck someone else’s family by getting into an affair.”
Mu Siyin knitted her brows furiously. She still found it hard to believe his words. “Are you sure?”
Lu Jingchen nodded his head. “Yes. That’s why I don’t want to see you end up like her.”
“Who was the man?” Mu Siyin wanted to know who that man was. Who was he that her sister willingly endured being called a mistress?
Lu Jingchen paused for a while before he replied, “It happened so long ago, Yinyin. Why are you still looking into it?”
Mu Siyin grew anxious. “Every one of you knows about it but me. I feel terrible.”
Lu Jingchen took a few deep breaths. “The man’s identity was rather mysterious. We had no idea who he was either.”
Mu Siyin frowned. “I don’t believe you.”
Lu Jingchen was helpless to see Mu Siyin that way. As such, he had no choice but to tell her everything he knew. “I heard that… he was someone from the government. He was quite a big shot.
“All these matters are ancient, Yinyin. Stop asking me about it. I really don’t know about the rest.”
Mu Siyin’s heart sank when she heard this.
“Then, how did she end up in a car accident? Also, did my mom really jump off a building out of sadness?”
Lu JIngchen shook his head in confusion. “I really have no idea about that. It was all too sudden. Your uncle, auntie, and I were at G City when this happened. It was already too late when we got the news.”
Mu Siyin knitted her brows tightly. Her mind was in a mess.
“It’s already been ten years, Yinyin. There’s no point in poking your nose around it anymore. You just have to take care of yourself now. Don’t let anyone bully you. That’s the only way Auntie and Cousin Siyun can rest in peace.”
Mu Siyin drooped her eyelids and nodded her head lightly. “Okay…”
Shi Beiyu stood at the same spot for a long time after Mu Siyin left. When he finally felt tired, he opened the car door, sat in his car, and smoked.
He rarely smoked. He would only take two cigarettes whenever he was in a bad mood.
However… he seemed to be smoking a lot lately.
Smoke puffed out from his sexy, crimson-colored lips. As smoke covered his handsome face, he looked every more breath-taking and seductive.
He sat in the car that way for a long time. All of a sudden, he put out the cigarette in his fingers and took out his phone. After turning it on, he dialed Leng Jiuchen’s number.
It did not take long for the call to go through. Leng Jiuchen’s cold and unique voice came through from the other end. “The Old Master and Auntie Shi are furious.”
Shi Beiyu pretended not to hear that and said frankly, “I need a favor.”
Leng Jiuchen found this bizarre and asked, “What kind of favor?”
“Get me two marriage certificates, for real.”
Leng Jiuchen fell silent. After a while, he asked, “Are you out of your mind?”
Shi Beiyu replied without hesitation, “I’m completely sane.”
