Shen Jinmo was not surprised.
It was already quite unexpected for him to see Shen Shuyuan in person today.
So whatever she says is no longer surprising.
"You infiltrated the Luo family to take care of your son?" Shen Jinmo asked her.
Her gaze fell on Mizuki in her arms. Mizuki looked motionless, her face pale, and something seemed wrong.
Shen Shuyuan hugged Ruixi tightly and reached out to pat his head: "Yes, I also thought I could be a good mother, but none of you were willing to give me that chance."
Shen Shuyuan murmured, her eyes filled with bitterness.
She kept her head down, so Shen Jinmo couldn't see the shape of her mouth opening and closing, and couldn't quite understand what she was saying.
“Even you, my most beloved brother, you became one of the executioners who killed my son, hahaha.” Shen Shuyuan suddenly widened her eyes, her gaze piercing Shen Jinmo like a knife.
Shen Jinmo was suddenly startled, his gaze falling on Ruixi.
He was as quiet as a feather, as if he would be blown away by the wind.
"What's wrong with Ruixi?" Shen Jinmo asked in a hoarse voice.
“He’s dead! My son! He’s dead, are you satisfied now?” Shen Shuyuan gently placed Ruixi on the floor, then staggered to her feet and came to Shen Jinmo’s side.
Shen Jinmo hadn't even recovered from the fact that Shen Shuyuan was alive when he was shocked by the news of Ruixi's death.
One thing after another, catching everyone off guard.
"Brother, how cruel you are! Even if you hate me, you should come at me! Ruixi is innocent, my son is innocent!"
Shen Shuyuan knelt down in front of Shen Jinmo with a thud, grabbing his collar with both hands.
Shen Jinmo remained motionless and stunned in his wheelchair.
His well-defined face was shrouded in gloom, and his sword-like eyebrows could not be relaxed.
"Ruixi was tortured by Steven's men, what does that have to do with me?" Shen Jingmo reacted instantly.
He regrets the child's death, but that doesn't mean he has to bear the consequences of Shen Shuyuan's outburst.
"But you were right there when he was being beaten and tortured. What did you do? You watched him being beaten and did nothing. You watched him walk step by step toward death."
Shen Shuyuan gripped his collar tightly with both hands.
The collar of the sweater was wrinkled and completely deformed from being gripped.
Shen Jinmo gritted his teeth. So that's why!
"I was asleep at that time," Shen Jinmo said truthfully.
"You're always a light sleeper! How could you not hear me?" Shen Shuyuan roared.
She still refused to blame herself; she wanted to shift the blame for Mizuki's death onto others.
That way she'll feel a little better and be able to find a reason to support her hatred.
“You can ask Steven how I am now. I’ve lost my hearing, and my sleep cycles are getting longer and longer. I often fall asleep and don’t wake up!” Shen Jinmo told her calmly.
"You're talking nonsense! Then why do you know everything I'm saying right now?" Shen Shuyuan was still hysterical.
Her madness and Shen Jinmo's calm acceptance of everything formed an extreme contrast.
"Didn't you notice I was staring at your mouth the whole time? I was watching your lip movements. Otherwise, I wouldn't have heard a word. Don't blame me for this." Shen Jingmo turned her face away.
His gaze fell on Mizuki on the ground.
A tiny little ball.
He suffered endless pain from birth.
His ambition and destiny were both brought about by Shen Shuyuan.
Such a pitiful child should perhaps never have been born in the first place.
Returning to heaven is the best place for him.
Shen Shuyuan wanted to verify whether what Shen Jinmo said was true.
She covered her mouth and said to Shen Jinmo, "Brother, actually, I still love you."
She knew that these words would trigger a stress response in Shen Jinmo.
But Shen Jinmo remained calm and unmoved.
This proves that he couldn't hear what she was saying without seeing her lips moving.
Shen Shuyuan's hand slowly fell to the ground, and she looked like a puppet that had lost the control of its strings.
She knew that Shen Jinmo was kind-hearted and would have helped Ruixi if he knew she was being beaten.
Therefore, Mizuki's death was entirely her own responsibility.
And those bodyguards who assaulted Mizuki!
Steven was someone she couldn't defeat, and she couldn't possibly kill herself.
Whom should she seek revenge against?
He looked down at the completely devastated Shen Shuyuan.
Shen Jinmo then spoke: "My body has become like this because of you. Part of it is a sequela left after we fell into the lake four years ago, and the other part is because of the treatment for An'an."
If I'm not mistaken, the fact that An'an and Ruixi had their identities swapped was something you did intentionally, wasn't it?
"No, I didn't." Shen Shuyuan shook her head, denying it outright.
"Now there's no need to hide it anymore. It is what it is. What's the use of me blaming you? Heaven has already punished you for me. If you hadn't harmed An'an in the first place, I wouldn't have had to take this risk to save him."
I'm not so badly deaf from declining health now, so maybe I can save Mizuki..."
One link leads to another.
Mizuki's death was like a dead end.
It was hand-knitted by Shen Shuyuan, the mother.
The only one who can solve this deadlock is Shen Shuyuan.
If she had no intention of harming others, she wouldn't have suffered the consequences for her own son, Mizuki.
“But if I hadn’t let An’an suffer that pain back then, Ruixi’s little body would probably have died long ago. You and I both know how ruthless Luo Xiu is, don’t we?” Shen Shuyuan tried to find some excuse for herself.
