Chapter 2132: Chapter 2126: Learning the Chus’ Secret
"I’ve never heard of such things before, and if I hadn’t just heard it, I wouldn’t have believed it." Chu Molin’s heart was far from calm. Did this mean that Ji Yan was not only her mother’s child, but possibly also the eldest of the Chus? What exactly was going on here, Molin was filled with all kinds of questions; he really didn’t know what to do anymore as the situation grew increasingly complex.
They were only here to attend a wedding, but they stumbled upon a shocking secret, and the secret pertained to something he had already been questioning. Molin thought he really needed to investigate and find out what was going on.
Chu Molin felt he had to take action; otherwise, it would be too passive, which wasn’t his style. He wanted to be the person in control, not someone led by the nose.
"It’s alright; now that we’ve learned a bit, no matter what, the fox will show its tail eventually, let alone this isn’t a fox." Qin Xue didn’t overthink it; she just hadn’t expected there to be such confidential matters within the Chu family, and so confidential that someone like Chu Molin, the eldest grandson of the Chus, didn’t know about it; clearly it wasn’t a simple matter.
No matter how ordinary or difficult it seemed, Qin Xue believed that if they wanted to investigate, they could. After all, they had only just arrived and already heard such an important piece of information. So, as long as they were willing, the truth was not far away.
"Yes, what Mom said is right; paper cannot wrap fire. Dad will eventually know what’s going on here." Yu Ze observed the people and things around him and chimed in after overhearing his parents’ whispered conversation.
"Yu Ze, is eavesdropping on our conversation really a good idea?" Qin Xue turned her head helplessly to look at her son beside her, wondering if she had overlooked something?
"I wasn’t eavesdropping, I was listening openly. If you don’t believe me, ask them." Yu Ze pointed to the few people around them, inviting his mother to ask them.
"Yeah, we all listened openly and squarely." The children, hearing Yu Ze’s words, nodded in agreement, without Qin Xue needing to ask.
"Ah, so it’s our fault for speaking too loudly. Alright, we’ll be careful from now on." Qin Xue blushed, realizing she had wronged the children.
In public, it’s necessary to be more mindful; otherwise, they would truly be gossiping villains.
"Mom, it’s alright, you can continue your conversation; my brother and I are watching, no one will come near you, see for yourself." Yu Chen stroked his chin, gesturing for his mother to look around them.
"Oh really, why is everyone staying so far away from us?" Qin Xue asked in puzzlement, seeing the people keeping their distance.
The children, upon hearing this, all turned to look at their father. With such a jealous person around, who dared to come too close to them?
And this was their family’s domain; the children had surrounded their parents, making it difficult for anyone to approach.
Sometimes, it wasn’t that others didn’t want to come closer, but that they dared not.
Didn’t Mom notice how cold it was just now? It was all because of Dad. It seemed with Dad’s love keeping her warm, she hadn’t felt it.
Still, they had to help their father fend off others; otherwise, if they couldn’t get past Dad’s scrutiny, seeing their mother being approached was also something they didn’t want to see.
So when they received a glance from their father, they instinctively stood around their parents, occasionally smiling or acting cute, sometimes tugging on their mother’s sleeve, none of which their mother noticed, which was somewhat slow-witted of her, huh.
