After finishing the dessert, the sisters went shopping and had dinner. When they got home, it was already close to nine o'clock.

As soon as Xia Tong opened the door, he saw Qin Mujue sitting in the living room, flipping through a magazine with his head down, looking careless. Hearing the sound, he stood up and asked: "Have you eaten? Do you need me?"

Can I give you a hot meal?"

Xia Tong shook his head: "I have already eaten out with my sister."

"Yeah", he nodded, pulled her over and sat next to him, holding her with one hand and continuing to flip through the magazine with the other.

At this moment, his head was resting on her shoulder, very close to her, and his warm breath sprayed on her neck, making her feel a slight itch. Since he sneaked into her room that night, the relationship between the two of them has changed.

It has relaxed a lot.

Recently, he rarely went to the hospital and never mentioned a word about Su Ruo. Xia Tong also wisely chose to shut up. The two of them maintained the warmth and calm on the surface.

But sometimes, being too calm is not a good thing. Just like you can never see through the clear and peaceful water surface. What kind of sharp and dazzling ripples will surge under it?

And vaguely, Xia Tong was a little uneasy, always feeling that this fleeting warmth was stolen and would have to be repaid one day.

He lazily turned a page and asked, "What did you talk about with your sister?"

"It's nothing." Xia Tong grabbed his other free hand and put it in his hand to play with. His hand was really beautiful, slender and clean, the nails were cut round and flat, and the palm was broad and warm. Hold it.

, seems to have the power to fight against the whole world.

"My sister is getting married in two weeks. I talked to her about the wedding, and——" She laughed: "My sister is also pregnant——."

"Oh?" He responded calmly, without any emotion.

Xia Tong asked tentatively: "Qin Mujue, will you go then?"

He closed the book and hugged her with his other hand: "You can just go..."

"You..." Do you still hate Xia Wanlin? Xia Tong opened her mouth to ask, but did not make a sound. She has always understood that her husband looks serious and strong on the surface, calm and reserved, and looks like a gentleman. But once she hates him,

Whoever they are, their methods are absolutely ruthless, they will kill them, and it is extremely difficult to change them.

And even if she tells him now that Xia Wanlin did not kill Lin Manru back then, I'm afraid he won't believe a word of it unless she finds evidence.

"Qin Muju..." She suddenly said: "Is it because of my sister that you did that to the Xia family?"

Qin Muzhen was a little evasive: "These are business matters, don't worry about it..."

"But that's my home." Xia Tong turned around and stared at him: "You destroyed it back then, but it's my home. How could I leave it alone?"

Qin Muzhen frowned: "You regard it as home, but when did those people regard you as family? Have you forgotten what Xia Huairen did to you back then, forcing you to marry an old man who can be your father? This is also his biological son.

What can father do?"

Xia Tong was speechless.

"And..." Qin Mujue stretched out his hand and touched her forehead: "Don't think that now that Xia Wanlin is nicer to you, you will have to rip off her heart and soul. The love between sisters is deep. You can't be defensive.

No, maybe you think of her as a sister, but she just thinks of you as a fool."

Xia Tong waved his hand away: "You are not allowed to slander my sister like this!"

"Am I slandering her?" Qin Mu said with a smile: "Xia Tong, in the business world, what kind of person with ulterior motives have I not seen? There are so many people who do the same thing in front of her but stab her in the back. She is treating you well now because of you.

It is human nature to seek profit and avoid disadvantage."

"What profit do I have?" Xia Tong admitted that she was a little angry.

"Because you are with me..." He said: "The Xia family is gone, and she has lost someone to rely on. And you also know that I have always treated her..." He paused and seemed to be thinking about it.

The wording: "I have always had a bad impression of her. And she wants to protect herself, so getting into a relationship with you is the simplest and easiest way. Because I will let her go for your sake."

The more Xia Tong listened, the angrier she became: "What are you talking about? Do you mean that without me, you will be disadvantageous to her? And the reason why my sister is good to me is just to please me?"

He nodded: "That's pretty much what it means..."

Xia Tong stood up angrily: "Qin Mujue, you are too self-righteous and you underestimate the relationship between us."

He smiled: "What kind of sisterly relationship? A relationship that couldn't be cultivated in eighteen years suddenly developed so fiercely in half a year. Xia Tong, don't you think it's strange?"

"You!" Xia Tong was shaking with anger and didn't want to talk to him anymore. She turned around and walked out angrily.

He pulled her from behind and sighed: "Hey, why did we have a quarrel while we were talking? I am just reminding you based on my experience. Who can say for sure whether it is true or not..." He will

She hugged him and said, "Just think that what I just said is all nonsense and that I judge a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, okay?"

"……."

"Okay, don't be angry..." He coaxed her, "Sit with me for a while. I went home at five o'clock today. I have been waiting for you for several hours. If you get tired of waiting, you will talk nonsense...

"

"Then you have to admit that what you just said is wrong!"

He held her hand, put it to his lips and kissed her softly: "Well, it's all wrong. Xia Wanlin is the best sister. You two sisters have a sincere relationship. It's my delusion to belittle the deep relationship between you..."

"

Xia Tong was a little itchy from his kiss, and couldn't help but draw back her hand. The anger on her face finally faded a little, and she pouted and said, "It's only right that you know you're wrong..."

He hugged her: "Looking at me for being so courageous in admitting my mistakes, should my wife reward me with a kiss and keep trying again?"

"I have a beautiful thought..." After Xia Tong said this, he wanted to run away, but he suppressed him with quick eyes and hands: "Not only do I have a beautiful thought, I also want to put it into action..."

****** *****

After ascending to the 21st floor, Nie Sheng walked into the office.

"Is something wrong?" Qin Mujie raised his head.

Nie Sheng said: "Master Mu, the people I sent to Australia to investigate have news."

"Oh?" Qin Mujie put down his pen and leaned on the chair behind him: "How do you say it?"

"You are right, Miss Su Ruo is the Lin Manru of that year..." Nie Sheng handed over a stack of information: "This is the clue I found at the hospital over there. Miss Lin of that year was on the highway.

The brakes failed and the car caught fire and exploded. Ms. Lin suffered severe burns in many parts of her body. She was then sent to the hospital by a couple surnamed Su, and was finally transferred to a plastic surgery hospital in Australia. After more than half a year of treatment, she gradually recovered...

."

It's really... like this...

Qin Mu's hands turned over the information and he couldn't help but feel a little heavy. He didn't expect that so many things had happened to her back then, and he didn't know anything about it.

But why didn't she contact him for so many years, making him think that she had been buried in the fire a long time ago.
