"What do you mean?!" Lin Zhixing asked immediately, "Did he do anything to my mother?"

“…”

Only then did Aunt Zeng realize that she had said the wrong thing in her excitement.

"Auntie?" Lin Zhixing asked again, "Did Grandpa He bully my mother?"

"No, no."

Aunt Zeng immediately denied it.

Lin Zhixing lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

The whole room was very quiet.

After several minutes, Lin Zhixing stood up and said, "Aunt Zeng, I'll wash the dishes and help you clean the room before I leave."

"No, no."

When Aunt Zeng saw Lin Zhixing clearing the dishes, she immediately went to get the plates of food.

The two of them went into the kitchen together.

Lin Zhixing rushed to work and quickly cleaned the house.

After returning to the living room, Lin Zhixing stood there for a long time before finally speaking: "Aunt Zeng, I'm sorry..."

Aunt Zeng looked over here.

Lin Zhixing took Aunt Zeng's hand and apologized sincerely, "Actually, I came to you because, besides wanting to see you... there's actually one more thing."

"What is it?"

"I had an argument with He Mingyu's grandmother because she said my mother... seduced her husband. I believe my mother is not that kind of person, so... I asked Master He for your contact information."

Lin Zhixing had just sat at the dining table in silence for a few minutes, thinking a lot.

She visited Aunt Zeng regularly every week, taking advantage of her emotions and eventually getting her to talk.

But that kind of...

Her kindness may ultimately be denied.

Instead of doing this, it is better to make it clear at the beginning. Even if Aunt Zeng doesn't say it now, she can come a few more times before and after going to the countryside to deliver medical treatment, which will give Aunt Zeng some time to think about it.

Aunt Zeng's expression showed no sign of surprise. She smiled and said, "Actually, the young master told me that if you have something to ask me, he asked me to tell you as much as I can."

"He Mingyu?"

Lin Zhixing was surprised.

"Yes, Young Master contacted me two days ago and said you would contact me in a few days." Aunt Zeng was silent for a moment and then said, "But I didn't expect that you would ask about this."

"yes……"

"Oh! I was afraid you'd ask about this, but I didn't expect it to be true." Aunt Zeng sighed, "I saw you were doing well, and since Lin Qin passed away so many years ago, I didn't want to mention that matter anymore."

"Then... can you tell me what happened back then?"

Lin Zhixing asked cautiously.

Aunt Zeng looked at Lin Zhixing's face, which resembled Lin Qin's, and after a moment's thought, she said, "No one knows the truth of what happened back then. Someone just secretly read Lin Qin's diary, which said she was pregnant and had an abortion. The diary didn't specify who the child was from, but everyone knew it was Mr. He's."

“…”

Aunt Zeng revealed the bloody truth word by word.

Only then did Lin Zhixing realize that his mother had suffered such a great injustice in the He family.

Even after her death, she was still slandered as a mistress!

Aunt Zeng also told Lin Zhixing that her mother had indeed been away for more than a month, and when she came back, she brought her with her.

It's like...

Made some kind of deal with someone.

Lin Zhixing left Aunt Zeng's house and just got into the car when he received a call from He Yanchen.

"Any results?"

the man asked.

Lin Zhixing looked at the old neighborhood outside the window.

I kept thinking about Aunt Zeng’s last words.

When she thought that the person who bullied her mother was He Yanchen's father, she suddenly didn't know how to face He Yanchen.

“…” Lin Zhixing opened his mouth and replied, “No.”

"Lin Zhixing, you're not good at lying, even on the phone."

He Yanchen ruthlessly exposed her lies.

“…”

Lin Zhixing didn't say anything and didn't refute.

She didn't know what to say.

Should I tell He Yanchen that your father raped my mother and made her pregnant?

I want your mother to go to my mother's grave and apologize to her?

There is no evidence.

Why does she say that?

"If you don't want to talk about it, you don't have to, and I won't ask you. But if it's my father who did something bad, I will apologize on his behalf. I can do anything."

He Yanchen said every word.

Even through the phone, Lin Zhixing could feel the sincerity of the man's attitude.

Lin Zhixing gripped the phone with a slight force, and after a long moment, he said, "What I want...is for your mother to apologize to my mother."

"she……"

"I don't need you to ask her. I will try to find some useful evidence to let her know that she wronged my mother and then apologize to her."

Lin Zhixing did not make things difficult for He Yanchen.

She also didn't want Zhou Qiaohua to apologize on behalf of her son.

She wanted to tell Zhou Qiaohua that she had made a mistake and had wronged her mother for twenty years!

However, it has been so long since the incident, and she doesn't know if she can still find evidence.

but……

She would at least try to find her mother's diary.

He Yanchen asked her: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"No need." Lin Zhixing shook his head while holding the phone. "You've already helped me with my father's affairs. Let me handle my mother's affairs on my own."

The phone was hung up.

Lin Zhixing thought carefully about his childhood.

She was too young when her mother had the accident and had no idea where her mother's belongings had gone.

Could it be...that it has been thrown away?

Lin Zhixing thought about it and called Yin Ruyu.

I'd like to ask about the relics.

The result was that all the better things that my mother had were buried.

The remaining ones were also disposed of.

Lin Zhixing was not surprised by this matter.

Mother is a nanny after all.

How could her things be left behind...

However, Lin Zhixing was unwilling to give up. Before hanging up the phone, she asked, "Aunt Yin, my mother kept a diary. Do you remember it?"

"Diary? This...I didn't notice."

Yin Ruyun thought about it for a while before answering her.

It lightly extinguished Lin Zhixing's last bit of hope.

Lin Zhixing held the phone, his mind blank for a few seconds before he said to the driver, "Driver, could you please take me to Cemetery No. 7?"

"good."

The driver agreed and turned the car around at the intersection ahead.

Lin Qin was buried in an ordinary cemetery in the suburbs.

Lin Zhixing usually visits his mother's grave twice a year.

Once during the Qingming Festival and once during the Cold Clothes Festival on October 1st.

This year's Cold Clothes Festival, she probably went to the countryside to provide medical treatment and may not have returned yet, so she came early.

The car drove for nearly an hour before arriving at the cemetery entrance.

It was an ordinary day, and it was afternoon, so there were very few cars at the cemetery entrance.

In the small parking lot, a car stands out.

It’s He Yanchen’s limited edition Bentley.

Why...is he here?
