"...Why did Brother Dongcheng say that?"

"Because my uncle..." Huo Dongcheng whispered, picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it, and poured another glass slowly, "my uncle stopped Fu Zheng from re-investigating your father's case... and wanted to pin the crime on him. On Fu Yue."

"Because I told you last time that the Bai family and Fu Zheng were fighting for profit... Actually, I lied to you."

Wen Liang's lips moved.

She didn't contact him after returning to China, and she had the idea of ​​gradually alienating him.

"Look, you didn't deny it. You hate me."

Wen Liang: "..."

She hesitated for a moment and said, "I can't say I hate it, I just don't understand it."

While in Philadelphia, she took him at his word.

Later, when she learned everything from Fu Zheng, she realized that the conflict between the Bai family and the Fu family turned out to be related to her father's case.

At that time, she thought, maybe he didn't know what the Bai family was doing, otherwise how could he have said so frankly that he was going to do more for the Bai family when he mentioned it to her last time?

But now, he admitted that he had lied to her, which meant that he knew it.

"Since you don't understand, why don't you come and ask me?" Huo Dongcheng put his arm on his forehead and looked at her with narrowed eyes.

Wen Liang thought about asking him why the Bai family blocked the investigation.

But think about it, what can I do if I ask?

She and Huo Dongcheng just met by chance, so there was no need for him to explain anything to her.

Huo Dongcheng has helped her a few times, but that doesn't mean he has to help her with everything.

"Brother Dongcheng knows that I hate taking my father's case seriously, but he still chooses to do that. He must have his own reasons. This reason is obviously much more important than my attitude towards you, so there is no point in asking."

Hearing this, Huo Dongcheng was stunned for a few seconds, smiled foolishly, raised his eyes and looked at Wen Liang, "...you make some sense, so..."

Huo Dongcheng raised his head, and his crow-feather-like eyelashes cast fine shadows on his eye sockets, making his eyes look darker, blurry, and unclear, "Do you want to know why?"

"Why?" Wen Liang asked following his words.

Huo Dongcheng lowered his eyes and clutched the wine glass tightly with his big hands until his joints turned white. He controlled his emotions and said, "Because uncle hates the Fu family, and I also hate the Fu family."

Seeing his similar face to Fu Zheng, an unbelievable thought flashed across Wen Liang's mind.

Is it possible...

"Back then, Fu Qingyue interfered in my parents' marriage and came to show off to my mother with a bulging belly. My mother was eight months pregnant and gave birth prematurely due to stimulation. After giving birth to me, she couldn't calm down emotionally. One day, when the nurse wasn't paying attention, she jumped from the rooftop Jumped down..."

Huo Dongcheng closed his eyes, clenched his teeth, his lips trembled slightly, his voice was low and hoarse, and he could faintly hear some undetectable choking.

"My uncle said that she lost her breath on the spot, and the ground was covered with blood..." he said while drinking.

"She was only twenty-four years old when she died... When I was a child, I heard my grandmother say that my mother was born in autumn. The night before she was born, there was a steady drizzle. My grandmother thought it was fate, so she gave her to my mother. Named Qiu Yu. When my mother grew up, her personality was very much like Qiu Yu, deserted, delicate, and sensitive, with a hint of sadness between her eyebrows."

"When my grandmother learned about my mother's death, she fainted on the spot. After that, her physical condition became worse and worse. She suffered from Alzheimer's disease and often thought of others as her mother. When she died, she came to her senses and held my hand and said , she shouldn’t have named her mother Qiu Yu. Autumn rain represents farewell, the end, and the withering of life..."

"...I have been without a mother since I was born, and the culprit who caused my mother to give birth prematurely and suffer an emotional breakdown was, under the protection of the Fu family, living abroad without any punishment..."

Speaking of this, Huo Dongcheng spoke heavily and his eyes became wet for a moment.

He immediately closed his eyes, leaned his head on the back of the chair, and took a deep breath.

Combined with Fu Zheng's life experience, Wen Liang understood.

Fu Zheng is the child of Fu Qingyue and Huo Junshan back then.

His mother died and the culprit was at large, making Huo Dongcheng hate the Fu family.

Therefore, the Bai family does not want to re-investigate the case because they want Fu Yue to bear the charge of being the mastermind. Once the verdict is announced and the news that the eldest son of the Fu family is the murderer spreads, the Fu Group will inevitably be greatly impacted. Take this opportunity The Huo family and the Bai family, along with some people who want a piece of the pie, are adding insult to injury. Even if the Fu family can be saved in the end, it will definitely be worse than before.

Suddenly, Wen Liang thought of a phone call she had had with Huo Junshan.

No wonder Huo Junshan was very polite to her on the phone, because he knew that she was his ex-daughter-in-law, and not long ago Fu Zheng went to Fu's house in person because of Lin Jiamin's entanglement with her.

The reason why Huo Junshan could agree to Fu Zheng so easily was probably because Fu Zheng was his son.

"Brother Dongcheng, I can understand your emotions. I haven't had a mother since I was a child. Fortunately, my father loved me very much and was even willing to give his life for me. That's why I want to find out the truth about his death."

However, Huo Dongcheng obviously did not have her good luck. He and Huo Junshan must have a normal relationship, otherwise words like uncle and grandmother would not always appear in his words, while his other blood relative seemed to not exist.

Thinking about it, if Huo Junshan was really the responsible person, how could this situation happen?

"My mother is to you what my father is to me. Since you understand the pain of losing a loved one, you should not stop the re-investigation of my father's case."

"Sorry……"

Huo Dongcheng took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and looked at her apologetically, with pain in his blurred eyes, "...I regretted it later, but I didn't dare to face you...that's why I delayed it." today."

"I understand... everyone has their own secrets and hidden softness and hatred in their hearts. It is not something that anyone can do easily by peeling off their hearts and showing them to others..."

"A Liang, I'm very tired."

Huo Dongcheng whispered, lying on the table as if he was uncomfortable.

"Then don't let yourself be so tired."

Wen Liang hesitated for a moment, then stood up and took away the wine bottle from his hand, "I don't want to say more about your grudges with the Fu family. It's just that, Brother Dongcheng, you only have a handful of lives in this world, so why bother to be trapped in hatred and calculations? Go? Travel, take photos, be happy and unrestrained, wouldn’t it be fun? "

"How can... hiccup... be so easy?" Huo Dongcheng muttered, his voice unclear, "I'm leaving, who will be in charge of the Huo family..."

"Oh, I forgot about that."

Wen Liang secretly thought it was not good and quickly asked, "It's getting late. Let's go back. Where do you live?"

"Stay...stay..."

Wen Liang lay next to his ear and listened carefully, but in the end she didn't hear him say where he lived.

Oh shit.

If I had known better, I wouldn't have listened to him talking so much. I would have asked him where he lived first.

She didn't know the location of the Huo family either.

Fu Zheng should know.

However, if she called Fu Zheng now and told him that she was sending a drunk Huo Dongcheng home, he would probably go straight to the capital to eat her.

As for Lin Jiamin, Wen Liang didn't want to drag her out of the blacklist.

Huo Junshan had called her before.

But, the person Huo Dongcheng doesn't want to see the most right now is Huo Junshan, right?

Let's take people back to the hotel.

Wen Liang called a car, asked the restaurant waiter to help her help Huo Dongcheng to the car, and went back to the hotel to open a room for him.
