Chapter 1404
The Apple of the Ruthless CEO's Eye: My Sweet Wife Is so Adorable
Qiao Mu did not look too good. Li Yan hugged her and said, ââMr. Zhou, we have other arrangements later. Weâll take our leave first.â
Zhou Cheng smiled and said, â My art exhibition will be held for a week. There will be new works on display every day. If you have time, you can come over and take a look. â
Li Yan nodded and led Qiao Mu out of the art exhibition.
Qiao Muâs mind was in a mess as she followed Li Yan out. She heard a conversation behind her.
âHubby, you never mention the origin of this painting to others. Why did you mention it to the guests today?â
â I feel like I hit it off with this girl. Maybe itâs because sheâs also a fashion designer. I just mentioned it, but I didnât notice that she does look a little similar to the person in the portrait. â
...
âIâm really going to be jealous when you think of your first love.â
â Itâs all in the past. We havenât contacted each other for so many years. Weâve already gotten married. Other than the memory of this painting, Iâve forgotten what she looks like. You know, what I care about is the work itself. â
â..â
The conversation became softer and softer until it disappeared.
Qiao Muâs face was a little pale, and her heart was in a mess. Li Yanâs grip on her hand tightened, and she looked up at him. â Uncle, do you think the person in the portrait is Shu Xinyu? â
If that was the case, then Shu Xinyu was Zhou Chengâs first love. Could Shu Xinyuâs child be Zhou Chengâs?@@novelbin@@
Although they had only met twice, Zhou Cheng was not the kind of person who would abandon Shu Xinyu after she got pregnant. Moreover, when Zhou Cheng mentioned the person in the portrait, it was just a pure first love. He did not feel the slightest guilt or apology.
Perhaps she was really overthinking.
However, she didnât believe Shu Xinyuâs words. Shu Xinyu said that her father was a rapist, and there was a high possibility that she was deliberately provoking her. With Shu Xinyuâs character, if she really encountered such an unbearable thing, how could she have given birth to her? Even if he found out too late, he would still kill her in his stomach at all costs, right?
The more Qiao Mu thought about it, the more confused she became. She wanted to get an answer from Li Yan, even if it was to comfort her. She did not want her thoughts to be messed up because of this matter.
Li Yan held her hand tightly and did not deny it. He asked her to look at the question directly. â If itâs really what you think, what are you going to do? â
Qiao Mu was stunned. If it was really as she thoughtâ¦She didnât have the courage to think about it. She didnât know if she wanted it to be like this or not.
Li Yan sighed and hugged her gently. â Mu Mu, Shu Xinyu isnât telling the truth. Iâve investigated her past, but I didnât find anything like what she said. Thatâs why your fatherâs identity is still unknown. â
Qiao Mu knew that this was the case. If Shu Xinyuâs words were false, then could Zhou City be hersâ¦
Li Yan patted her head. â Donât think too much about it. Leave this matter to me. Iâll investigate it thoroughly. â
In fact, Li Yan had already started investigating Shu Xinyuâs past, but because it was too far away, he did not manage to find out what happened before Shu Xinyu got pregnant. Hence, Qiao Muâs father had always been a mystery.
Now that he had a suspect, perhaps there would be results if he investigated.
Although this kind of thing would affect Qiao Mu regardless of the outcome, he knew that even though Qiao Mu did not say anything, she still hoped to know about her father.
It was better to face it as soon as possible than to let this matter become a knot in her heart.
