Seeing Mo Yang nod, Mo Fengying breathed a sigh of relief. "When did this happen? Weren't you and my father's first love? How could you... have a child with someone else?"
"It happened when I was in college." Mo Yang spent some time telling Mo Fengying about what happened between her, Qi Tingxue and Mo Suixin.
Mo Fengying heard a story full of love, hatred and vengeance from Mo Yang's narration, and this story directly overturned all of Mo Fengying's cognition.
She thought her parents' deep love was just a fate her father had forcibly taken away from her. She thought she was the fruit of her parents' love, but she didn't know she was just a little burden her father had created to keep her mother.
The food in front of her was beautifully presented and tasted delicious, but Mo Fengying had no appetite at all.
"Then Qi Tingxue, is she dead?"
"...Um."
Mo Yang's face was filled with sorrow. She took a sip of wine before she spoke, "When I was six months pregnant with your brother, Qi Tingxue lost money at an art exhibition and gradually became mentally ill. When I was about to give birth, he suddenly went mad and jumped off the balcony..."
"At that time, I always thought that his death was due to mental disorder caused by excessive stress. I still insisted on giving birth to the child. During the confinement period, Mo Suixin found me."
"At that time, I had no money. I gave birth to your brother, but I didn't know how to raise him. Mo Suixin told me that if I was willing to return to my tribe and marry him, he would find a wealthy family for my child, and that the child would have a bright future."
"Considering that I really didn't have the ability to raise that child on my own, I agreed. I was only a few days away from finishing my confinement when Mo Suixin took your brother away and sent him to a wealthy family."
"A year after we got married, I became pregnant with you. It wasn't until the day of your first birthday party that I accidentally learned the truth about Qi Tingxue's death. It turns out that he didn't become mentally ill due to excessive stress, but Mo Suixin gave him a chronic poison that damaged his nervous system, turning him into a madman!"
Mo Yang's eyes filled with tears as she spoke of this secret past. "Fengying, your father did love me, but he was also the person who hurt me the most in this world."
He killed her lover and took her child!
When Mo Fengying heard her mother talk about these past events for the first time, she couldn't believe it was true. Her father had always been kind and benevolent, so how could he kill someone?
Mo Fengying was so confused that she couldn't taste the food.
After leaving the restaurant, Mo Yang suggested taking a walk along the Erhai Lake. Mo Fengying had no objection. Her mind was full of things at the moment, and she had no mood to look at anything.
As the mother and daughter walked, they came to the reef. As the sky grew darker, many tourists were preparing to return to their hotels, but the young painter was still sitting on the reef, staring at the distant coastline in a daze.
Mo Fengying noticed that this young man was the one her mother had frequently observed in the restaurant before, so she squatted down beside the young man and asked him, "What are you looking at?"
Qi Jun's thoughts were interrupted. He glanced around in surprise and saw a pretty girl sitting next to him. He replied coldly, "I'm thinking about how to conceive a painting."
Mo Fengying stared at the finished painting on the drawing board and said, "Your painting is very beautiful. Do you want to sell it?"
Qi Jun stared at the painting in front of him without saying a word.
He was at Erhai Lake, but what he painted was not the sea in front of him, but the forest at night. The painting seemed gloomy and made people feel uncomfortable.
But there are people who appreciate this kind of painting.
Qi Jun finally shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, this painting is a failure." After that, he tore up the painting.
Qi Jun turned around and was about to leave when he realized there was a woman standing behind him.
The beautiful woman was wearing a light purple silk dress, with her hair loose and a white shawl draped over her shoulders. She was wearing white high heels and standing on the reef, exuding a sense of detached beauty.
Although she doesn't have a stunning appearance, she still makes people like her when they see her.
Qi Jun smiled faintly at Mo Yang, then brushed past him and walked away.
After Qi Jun left, Mo Yang sat down where Qi Jun had sat before, legs together. "He is your brother."
Mo Fengying was stunned.
After understanding what Mo Yang was saying, Mo Fengying turned around suddenly, but only saw a receding figure. Mo Fengying asked Mo Yang, "Why don't you talk to him for a while? Even if you don't want to disturb his current life, chatting for a while is fine."
Mo Yang tangled her hands together, licked her lips, and whispered, "I dare not..."
Mo Fengying raised her eyebrows.
She is not a mother, so she cannot understand Mo Yang's feelings.
Mo Yang said, "He lives in a happy and wealthy family. His parents are the ones who have grown up with him. And I am just a stranger. If my presence makes him suspicious and disrupts his peaceful and happy life, that would be terrible."
"I just want to take a look at him, to see if he's tall, handsome, and whether he has a cheerful or dull personality. Then I'll feel at ease."
Mo Fengying felt very uncomfortable when she heard Mo Yang say this. She held Mo Yang's hand and said with a smile: "Then let's stay on this island for a few more days and see him more often."
Mo Yang felt warmed by her daughter's thoughtfulness.
In the next few days, Mo Fengying took her bodyguard Mo Suifeng to visit various scenic spots in Dali, while Mo Yang stayed on Jinsuo Island, finding a place where it was not easy to be discovered, and secretly observed Qi Jun.
That afternoon, Qi Jun walked into a coffee shop, ordered a cup of coffee, then walked to a bookshelf and picked up a novel by Keigo Higashino, "Red Fingers".
