The Manyin River adorns the capital of Mans like a silver satin. The skyscrapers are softened by this silver satin. When the sunset glows in the evening, the silver satin is sprinkled with orange-gold powder, which makes it more graceful and beautiful. For this reason, the Manyin River has become the most iconic scenery of Mans.

The morning sunshine and the open-air cafe complement each other perfectly. You can leisurely drink the fragrant coffee while appreciating the unique beauty of the Manyin River.

At this moment, the two people sitting in the open-air cafe had no intention of appreciating such a beautiful scenery.

"Aren't you Shen Yanqing's biological father?" Xie Chi looked at the man in front of him. His hair was stained with white, his temperament was gentle and elegant, and he looked in good spirits, so he looked younger than his actual age.

Xie Chi, the leader of the investigation team, appeared here to determine how much Shen Yanqing's biological father knew about Shen Yanqing's past and the affairs of the Shen family. The members of the investigation team who escaped from the Shen family that year were also contacted, but they obtained little valuable information. Finally, they found Shen Yanqing's father Zhou Yu, and found a suitable time to contact him.

Zhou Chi looked mild-tempered and smiled at everyone, but in fact he was slippery and ruthless, and was not easy to approach. The investigation team spent a lot of effort to find any subtle clues and did not give up. Fortunately, the other party had not been to the country for decades and still held a passport of the country. When Xie Chi revealed his identity as a civil servant, they met each other.

At this moment, Zhou Yu's words surprised him a little, but he also understood that this meeting was very valuable.

"No, otherwise how could I not come to the country to see him for decades." Zhou Yu looked at the mysterious civil servant in front of him. He never mentioned the past to anyone, including his wife. He thought that decades had passed and he should have gradually forgotten about it, but he didn't expect that after someone mentioned it, those memories suddenly became vivid, as if it happened yesterday.

Zhou Yu lowered his head slightly. When he said this, his face was no longer calm as before, and his expression became visibly dim: "At that time, she begged me to take her with her. If I had agreed, maybe Ayu would not have committed suicide..."

Xie Chi is a qualified listener, patiently guiding the other party to say: "It's not your fault. No one wants this to happen."

"No, it's my fault." Zhou Yu lost his previous gentleness. His voice didn't rise, but it became much deeper. "I feel sorry for her. I gave up her for my future and my family's expectations. Because of this, I got my current status and wealth. For decades, I have always felt guilty and dared not to ask for her news... I only heard the news from others a year after her death."

"When she begged me to take her home, I didn't notice her abnormality in time, nor did I have the courage to confront her brother. In the chaos, I chose to escape, and so I ran away like a coward..."

"That man is too scary and too crazy." Guo Xian's memory is so profound that his anger and fear towards that man seem to still remain in his body. As long as the memory is slightly aroused, it will be so profound that he doesn't even want to mention his name.

Xie Chi listened quietly without interrupting him.

Zhou Yu took a deep breath and continued as calmly as possible: "His control over Yu has long gone beyond the scope of a brother. I first met him three months after Yu and I confirmed our relationship. At that time, I didn't take his hostility too seriously. Yu is different from me. She has been protected by her brother since she was a child. She has never been exposed to any malicious intent. She is gentle and simple, and treats people kindly. She was born in the Shen family and is the eldest daughter of the Shen family. She is not from the same world as me, so I can understand the opposition of her family, especially her brother who has been taking care of her and loving her since she was a child."

"Later, Ayu and I talked about the future and marriage... Ayu also mentioned it to her brother." Zhou Yu paused, "It was from that time that the man's behavior began to control me. He used all means to force me to leave Ayu. I was young and hot-tempered at that time, so how could I compromise easily? But I didn't expect that he would actually hit my parents, brother and younger sister. He made my family restless. My parents were hospitalized one after another, my brother was forced to drop out of school, and my sister was almost killed..."

Zhou Yu's voice choked.

Xie Chi was very quiet, and his expression showed the empathy of a listener. Their investigation team had found out all these things. What Shen Duo did back then was indeed over the line, but those things were finally forgotten. Later, Zhou Qi took his family and a sum of money and went to a foreign country. After that, his family never came back.

"I was very scared at that time. I thought I could withstand the pressure, but in the end, I was still timid." Zhou Yu said this with a self-deprecating smile, and then became bitter: "At that time, I didn't dare to tell Ayu about my family, nor did I dare to say that I was actually scared... In the same way, Ayu's gentleness and innocence became more and more dazzling in my eyes, and finally the conflict broke out. I quarreled with Ayu over a trivial matter, and when I realized that I was emotionally controlled, I ran away."

"After my parents were discharged from the hospital and my brother and sister-in-law's problems were resolved, I calmed down a bit. Although I apologized to Yu, the problems between us were not solved. They were just hidden deeper... so much so that I didn't notice Yu's abnormality at that time."

The sunlight shone on the Manying River, making it sparkle. The light reflected from the water surface seemed a little dazzling for a moment.

Zhou Xiao closed his eyes, then opened them again: "That man's desire to control A-Yu has gone beyond the scope of a brother. Many times, I felt something was wrong, but I didn't think about it carefully.

That day was Valentine's Day. Ayu and I had an appointment to spend it together. I was delayed by some things and was half an hour late. When I rushed past the street, I saw Ayu getting out of the man's car from a distance. She looked strange and said she had a cold, so I didn't think much about it, nor did I notice her hesitation to speak, so I found a restaurant. After leaving the restaurant, we chatted while eating, and it seemed that everything was back to the past. The atmosphere was very good. Ayu and I kissed, and then I saw the kiss mark on the side of Ayu's neck covered by her shirt. I was very angry at the time. I didn't have time to question it before I saw that the man's car was parked not far away, and he stood next to the car with a gloomy face... Ayu was forcibly dragged into the car by him, and the bodyguard held me down, and I could only watch them leave. I was unwilling, and I was also afraid that my family would be retaliated against because of me... I was worried every day and didn't have the heart to care about anything else.

Even when I saw that man kissing Ayu in the car that day, I just thought I was seeing things through the car window.

Thinking about it carefully, the way that person looked at Ayu made me feel weird and uncomfortable. Many times I even thought that I might be crazy. After all, they are siblings, so I always thought that I was thinking dirty.

It was a long time later that I realized that it was not the look of a brother looking at his sister, but the look of a man looking at a woman. "

"Have you seen each other again since that day?" Xie Chi asked.

"Yes." Zhou said: "A month later, I received a pregnancy test report. Then on the first day, Ayu asked me to meet her. She was in a bad mental state that day, and that person was also there. I thought the pregnancy test report was fake, so I confirmed it with Ayu and she admitted it. Ayu and I broke up peacefully that day.

Although I felt betrayed and angry because Yu was pregnant with someone else's child, I was also relieved deep down. I finally decided to leave this place, and I called Yu one last time before boarding the plane.

She called me and begged me to take her away.

I refused, and we never met again.”

"Chen Yanqing is not my child, and Ayu and I have never crossed the line." Zhou Yu looked at the young man in front of him, his mood a little depressed, "This is what I know about Chen Yu."

Xie Chi nodded: "Thank you for telling us this."

The midday sun was reflected on the water surface of the Manying River, as if covered with a layer of gorgeous golden gauze, magnificent and graceful. At this time, more and more people were leaving work on the road, and many guests began to sit around the two of them, leisurely drinking coffee and enjoying the beautiful scenery.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Qi, Xie Chi left the hotel and sent an audio clip to the intelligence team.

There is a 7-hour time difference with Mans Country. When the intelligence team of the Dongzhou NSI branch received the recording, it was 8:12 pm.

The intelligence team that received the audio quickly organized and recorded the useful information and then reported it to the minister.

Minister Liang contacted Xie Chi after Xie Chi sent the audio to the intelligence team. After learning the results of the investigation from Xie Chi, he fell silent for a rare moment.

The observers who were listening looked serious.

Finally, Minister Liang spoke: “Notify the field team to take the hair of Shen Yanqing and Shen Duo for DNA comparison.”

The field team vaguely sensed something when they received this order.

“Team leader, do you suspect that Shen Yanqing is Shen Duo’s…”

"Wait for the appraisal to be concluded."

"yes."

The field team always follows the target to be protected, and now Chen Duo is in Bai Zang Mansion, so it is not difficult to get the hair of the two.

Dongzhou, NSI branch, was brightly lit all night.

The testing department worked overtime overnight.

It was past midnight.

"Minister, the DNA comparison results are out."
