(The order of worlds is not fixed. This novel is essentially a feel-good story, so please be kind, dear readers.)
After Bai Yuzhi died from an illness, she was bound to a system and gained a ...
Qu Yuexin is already dead, and the system only knows about this tasker through her name. Bai Yuzhi knows that given the character of the system headquarters, they will not provide them with any useful information, so the only person who knows the inside story now may be Chen Heqing's adoptive mother, Wu Xi.
Wu Xi was willing to raise Chen Heqing without getting married for the rest of her life, which proved that she and Qu Yuexin had a very good relationship back then. So even if she didn't know everything, she at least knew about 70% of what happened back then. Now, connecting with Wu Xi on the phone was the most convenient and quickest option.
Chen Heqing and Guan Xiao completely agreed with this method.
As the parties involved, Chen Heqing and Guan Xiao's desire to know the truth of what happened back then is no less than Bai Yuzhi's.
So Chen Heqing called Wu Xi.
Wu Xi is a woman with a strong personality. Her years of doing business have made her very strong and decisive. The moment she answered Chen Heqing's call, she yelled.
"Why are you calling me at this time, brat? What's the matter?"
Wu Xi was probably busy, but he still quickly answered Chen Heqing's call.
Chen Heqing shrank his neck when he was scolded and told Wu Xi the current situation.
"Mom, what happened back then? Are you really not my biological mother?"
Wu Xi on the other side was silent for a moment, then made a decisive decision: "I'm in Beijing now, let's talk in person."
Wu Xi acted decisively and arrived at the villa quickly. She took the key herself without knocking.
Bai Yuzhi looked at Wu Xi.
This is a woman who is dressed neatly and cleanly, wearing a set of women's suits and not-so-high thick-heeled high heels.
She was still holding the contract documents in her hand. The reason she yelled at Chen Heqing just now was probably because she was really busy.
Bai Yuzhi does not possess any power of merit, but like Guan Xiao and Chen Heqing, she possesses extremely high flexibility, which means that Wu Xi should play a very important role in Qu Yuexin's mission.
Wu Xi walked straight towards Chen Heqing as soon as she entered the room and stood in front of him. She was clearly an ordinary woman, not tall or strong, but she was blocking Chen Heqing, a tall and strong man, firmly behind her. Wu Xi sneered:
"After all these years, why on earth do you still come to disturb our lives? I gave this child a name that is completely unrelated, and you were able to find it. Guan Xiao, you really have great connections."
Bai Yuzhi could hear the emphasis Wu Xi had placed on the four words "hands and eyes all-seeing".
Back then, Wu Xi accepted Qu Yuexin's advice and hid the child. She knew that Guan Xiao had been looking for Qu Yuexin, and that every move she made in business was probably under Guan Xiao's nose. In order to prevent Guan Xiao from becoming suspicious because of the child's surname, Wu Xi simply pretended to be pregnant for ten months and named Qu Yuexin's child Chen.
Facts have proved that her trick was indeed useful. At least before Bai Yuzhi's live broadcast was discovered, Chen Heqing had never been investigated by Guan Xiao.
But now it has been discovered.
After so many years of twists and turns, the hidden truth was finally revealed in front of everyone.
Wu Xi said angrily, "Guan Xiao, how dare you come to investigate He Qing? You left all those years ago and lied to Yue Xin that you were going to the front lines. But as soon as you left, someone came to 'raid your house'! How could you be so cruel? Yue Xin was already pregnant with your child at that time!"
This means that Chen Heqing is indeed the child of Guan Xiao and Qu Yuexin.
Chen Heqing fell silent. He didn't expect that he was not actually Wu Xi's biological son, and that there was a complicated love-hate relationship between his biological father and mother.
After listening to Wu Xi's accusation, Bai Yuzhi almost understood the whole story.
Guan Xiao and Qu Yuexin were in love with each other back then. Of course, this was Wu Xi's opinion. In Bai Yuzhi's opinion, the tasker would not really fall in love with the target, at least she never would. With Qu Yuexin's ability, since she could come to a nightmare-level world to do the task, she probably wouldn't be so stupid.
After they hurriedly held a wedding, Guan Xiao rushed to the front line. At that time, Qu Yuexin already had a child.
Hearing this, Bai Yuzhi guessed that Qu Yuexin was probably also bound to the fertility system like her, because if she was bound to another system, Qu Yuexin would not fail to use contraceptive methods.
They already had a child, and Chen Heqing grew up safely, but Qu Yuexin still died.
She doesn't even believe that there's no world consciousness playing tricks here.
According to Wu Xi, nothing happened after Guan Xiao left, but all the letters that Qu Yuexin sent to the front line received no response, and the two lost contact.
Later, when Qu Yuexin was pregnant, she no longer tried to contact Guan Xiao. She only told Wu Xi that she would be satisfied as long as she had this child.
At that time, Wu Xi was very disappointed with Qu Yuexin and even advised her to abort the child, but Qu Yuexin was determined to give birth to the child.
When Wu Xi said this, he gritted his teeth in hatred.
"If you hadn't been there at the time, how could Yue Xin have died in childbirth because of those people rushing in?"
Bai Yuzhi frowned fiercely.
It is impossible for the person who is bound to the childbearing system to die due to a difficult childbirth.
It turned out that year, Qu Yuexin was about to give birth, but suddenly a group of invading troops hiding nearby rushed into Qu Yuexin's home.
It was already late at night. In order to protect their daughter, Qu Yuexin's parents died under the swords of the invading army. Qu Yuexin was so frightened that she died after giving birth to the child.
Wu Xi escaped the disaster by hiding under the cellar while holding the newborn Chen Heqing.
Because of this, she thought Guan Xiao was a heartless man who abandoned his wife and children.
Guan Xiao was also in great pain: "But back then, I didn't receive any letter from Yue Xin at all!"
Things were so weird that Bai Yuzhi frowned from beginning to end. There were too many things that didn't make sense, so weird that it was even a bit ridiculous.
The place where Division Commander Guan Xiao got married was actually hiding the invading army?
As the person who carried out the task, Qu Yuexin actually had a difficult labor late at night?
And those letters that were supposedly sent but never received...
The most important thing is that Wu Xi was able to stay in the cellar all night holding a newborn without making a sound.
Even if she could control herself, Chen Heqing was still a baby at the time. Could she really stop crying?
Putting these doubts together, the purpose of world consciousness becomes clear.
Its target was not Guan Xiao or Chen Heqing. It wanted to kill Qu Yuexin, the tasker. If Qu Yuexin's parents had not rushed out to protect their daughter, the only one who would die in this "accident" would be Qu Yuexin.
Otherwise, Wu Xi and Chen Heqing would not be alive today.
Bai Yuzhi had a cold face. What on earth did this world consciousness want to do by taking the life of the tasker?
