When I got home, Chu Xing was not there.

She went to the mall to buy a lot of seafood, which she had always thought was expensive and never bought even when she wanted to eat it. This time she got so much bonus, it was okay to splurge once in a while.

Song Mai was happily preparing dinner when she heard someone knocking on the door. She subconsciously wiped her hands and went to the door: "Did you forget to bring your keys?"

The moment she opened the door, she did not see Chu Xing, but Qin Jizhi standing coldly in front of her.

"Aunt, why are you here?" She said with a smile, "The seafood will be ready soon..."

"I'm not here for dinner today, but to ask you, you made my son risk his life, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

When Song Mai heard this, he was subconsciously stunned.

Chu Xing's arm was seriously injured, and as his mother, it was understandable that she knew these things.

She felt extremely guilty and subconsciously said, "Aunt, I was wrong about Ah Xing. It was my fault that he almost lost his life."

Qin Jizhi sneered and interrupted her.

At this moment, in Qin Jizhi's eyes, her every move was just pretending to be stupid.

Qin Jizhi looked around and said with disgust: "You actually managed to convince Ah Xing to live with you in a place like this. It seems that you have put a lot of thought into it. I guess you also know that our Chu family is very wealthy. With your status, it is impossible for you to become the young lady of the Chu family, so you deliberately pretend to be pitiful and live here."

"I didn't..." Song Mai didn't understand Qin Jizhi's words at all.

No one can accept being accused of something for no reason.

"Ah Xing is allergic to seafood. Did you know that?" Qin Jizhi glanced at the kitchen with disdain. "And Ah Xing's injury hasn't fully healed yet. You actually cooked seafood. Are you trying to kill him?"

Song Mai frowned. She had been watching Chu Xing's injuries for the past few days and was sure that there was no major problem before she went to buy seafood. She had also consulted Jiang Jibai and it was okay to eat some seafood.

"I asked Dr. Jiang, and he said it's ok to eat..."

"Jiang Jibai? If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. I just felt that this place looked familiar. It turned out to be Xiao Jiang's house."

Song Mai opened her mouth. In Qin Jizhi's mind, she was now a gold-digger who was trying to curry favor with the powerful. Such a situation was naturally intolerable.

She had tried her best to finally escape from her home, and now everything was getting better. How could she be so blinded by her family background?

She said stubbornly: "Everything I have now is the result of Ah Xing and I's hard work."

"Ah Xing doesn't need to work hard. He has already worked so hard before. Does he really care about the little money you earn?" Qin Jizhi sneered, stood up and prepared to leave.

When he reached the door, he suddenly thought of something, turned around, and said with disdain: "I really don't know whether you don't understand or are just pretending to understand. Do you think you can have all this with your ability?"

This sentence woke Song Mai up. All the good fortune he had experienced during this period seemed very strange when he thought about it carefully.

She naively comforted herself that it was because of her experiences in the first half of her life that God was so kind to her. But now that she thought about it carefully, there was no such thing as pie in the sky.

Could it be that there is really another hidden story behind all this?

Song Mai was restless and stared at the pot in front of him in a daze.

After a long time, the door opened again.

Chu Xing saw Song Mai's appearance and the dish in front of him that was almost burnt, so he strode forward and turned off the fire.

"What's wrong with you?" Looking at her appearance, Chu Xing was really surprised.

He had a bad feeling in his heart and looked around subconsciously.

"It's okay, my aunt was here just now." Song Mai came back to his senses and spoke weakly.

Looking at Chu Xing taking off his coat, he tentatively said, "I got a bonus today, a full million."

Chu Xing didn't notice her abnormality, and spoke calmly as before: "So great!"

He looked calm, as if the one million was just a hundred dollars and was not worth mentioning. Song Mai couldn't figure it out and couldn't help asking again.

"Don't you think this is a very large amount of money?" Song Mai couldn't help but ask worriedly.

Chu Xing turned around and said with a firm look: "I believe that one day in the future, we will make countless millions. The reason why I am not surprised is that you risked your life to go to the disaster area this time, which is worthy of praise. And you finally completed all the work smoothly without any delay. Such excellent ability, isn't it worth one million?"

These words left Song Mai speechless for a moment.

This sounds like it is correct.

I just always feel like something is wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.

She took a deep breath and smiled with a forced smile: "I made seafood and it will be ready to eat soon."

Chu Xing looked at her back distressedly, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must give Song Mai a better life. He would only be truly good to her when she would not be surprised by a small amount of one million.

That night, Song Mai tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Looking at Chu Xing who was sleeping beside him, he seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

In the end, he just turned over and fell asleep with his back to Chu Xing.

The next morning, Song Mai asked for leave and did not tell Chu Xing, but found a private detective on his own.

"You think your husband's whereabouts are suspicious, so you asked me to help investigate?" The private detective was not surprised at all. After all, such things were not uncommon.

"Not really. Can you help me investigate if he has another identity that he is hiding from me?"

"I understand. Many men who commit marriage fraud will fabricate a very good identity for themselves, and then achieve their goal of defrauding money and sex. I understand all of this." The private detective's knowing look made Song Mai not want to argue any further.

No matter what he thinks, as long as he can help me find out Chu Xing's true identity in the end.

Thinking of this, she lowered her voice and said, "But don't let him find out. He has a lot of bodyguards around him, and he might get you into trouble if you're not careful."

"Don't worry, I'm a professional." The private detective assured, patting his chest.

Song Mai was walking on the way to the company, thinking for a long time, but he still felt a headache after thinking about it.

What is Chu Xing's real identity? Does he really love me as much as he seems?

At this time, at the top of Yunxing Group, Special Assistant Lu said with a serious expression: "Master Yun, Madam is already investigating your identity and whereabouts. Do you think it is necessary to intervene?"

"Let's follow our previous plan." Chu Xing tapped the document with his pen in annoyance. "Also, let's investigate whether anyone deliberately revealed this to her."
