Qiu Jingwen was stumped by his wife's question!
He calmed himself down for a moment, then looked at his wife with a smile.
"Yu Ping, you don't suspect that I killed that old man, do you? Have you been watching too much Sherlock Holmes?"
Jiang Yuping looked at Qiu Jingwen and suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"Hmph, Qiu Jingwen, is that so? You know what you're doing."
Qiu Jingwen knew that his wife loved reading detective novels and that she had a vivid imagination.
He naturally couldn't admit that he knew Liu Han. If he did, and Liu Han's identity as a special agent was ever revealed, wouldn't he naturally be implicated?
Thinking of all this, he gently patted his wife's shoulder.
"Alright, alright, Yuping, stop overthinking, it's all in the past."
Jiang Yuping looked into Qiu Jingwen's eyes.
"Then tell me, how exactly was that three thousand yuan spent?"
"Yuping, didn't I tell you? It was borrowed from a friend, and I'll pay it back later."
To Qiu Jingwen's surprise and anxiety, Jiang Yuping stared at him and sneered again.
"Heh, if the friend you're talking about is dead, then tell me, how and when will he pay you back?!"
------
Boom, boom, boom,
Time and space seemed to freeze.
The two looked into each other's eyes.
For a long time, neither of them spoke.
Qiu Jingwen felt a chill run down his spine from his wife's words.
He even sensed that his wife already knew about his affair.
After all, he was a trained agent. Although he was young at the time and still a teenager, the more than six months of special training benefited him for life. He also learned many skills, including thinking, analysis, reasoning and judgment.
The wife's words were clearly pointed.
Moreover, it refers to Liu Han, who is lying in the morgue of the medical room.
He became somewhat worried and scared.
If the wife has already guessed eight or nine points of the truth, how will the relationship develop in the future?
Furthermore, ever since he handed over the three thousand yuan to Liu Han, Liu Han has never appeared in front of him again.
Given Qiu Jingwen's keen sense as a special agent, could it be that Liu Han has had contact with his wife again?
Thinking of all this, he naturally thought of what Wei Hong had told him: she and her wife had noticed Liu Han staring at them on their way to work that day.
Furthermore, Liu Han had also appeared before them in the staff canteen.
Qiu Jingwen naturally understood that Liu Han's frequent appearances in front of him were meant to tell him that Liu Han would appear around him like a shadow at any time.
Not only his son Qiushou and daughter Qiuchan, but also his beautiful doctor wife, are all within Liu Han's sight. If he wants to make a move against them, it is an easy thing to do.
"Yu Ping, what exactly do you want to say to me?"
Qiu Jingwen embraced his beloved wife once again.
Jiang Yuping did not respond, but buried her head deeply in her husband's arms, and tears streamed down her face.
Qiu Jingwen felt a surge of hot tears and found it strange.
Why did my wife suddenly burst into tears?
"Yu Ping, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
He hugged his wife and kept apologizing.
Aside from apologizing, he couldn't and dared not tell his wife the truth.
Ever since Liu Han appeared on that rainy day, he has been afraid of losing everything, afraid of losing his family, his wife and children.
Jiang Yuping pounded her husband's chest with both hands while sobbing softly.
"Qiu Jingwen, even at this point, you still won't tell me? What kind of couple are we? We've been married for over twenty years! How can you not trust me?"
At this point, she suddenly pushed her husband away, then stared into Qiu Jingwen's eyes and continued:
"Qiu Jingwen, didn't your superior Liu Han die? What are you afraid of now?"
"So what if you're a secret agent? You're still my husband of over twenty years. Are you afraid or worried that I'll expose you?"
"Didn't you yourself say that you're not a bad person and that you've never done anything bad?"
Jiang Yuping fired a barrage of words at Qiu Jingwen like a machine gun.
She seemed to have lost control; after she finished speaking, she burst into tears.
His wife's string of words was like bullets fired from a submachine gun, completely stunning Qiu Jingwen.
His mouth was agape, and his eyes were wide open in terror.
Qiu Jingwen, a man, felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Time passed second by second.
The dim lights in the bedroom were like sharp swords.
Qiu Jingwen understood that his wife already knew everything!
Not only did he mention Liu Han's name, but he also knew that Liu Han was his superior and that he was Qiu Jingwen's secret agent!
But,
How did the wife find out about all this?
She knew everything.
Why doesn't he ever come clean with himself?
With Qiu Jingwen's intelligence, he quickly deduced that Liu Han must have told his wife everything, otherwise how would his wife know all the secrets?
"You—you—you know my secret?"
I don't know how much time passed.
Qiu Jingwen asked, stammering slightly.
His words were filled with fear and sorrow.
"Yes, I know all your secrets, and I'll tell you, I killed Liu Han."
Jiang Yuping said calmly.
This time,
Qiu Jingwen wasn't just terrified, he was terrified to the extreme!
He could feel a chill emanating from his entire back.
