Chapter 556 The Truth of the Past
After saying that, Xing Yue looked at them curiously.
"Who are you? How do you know my master's private affairs?"
There are many people coming and going in the teahouse, but few people actually know about these private matters.
Xu Ge shook his head and continued to ask: "Have you seen that mother and daughter?"
Xing Yue nodded again. "Yes, I have. I met them once two years ago. They came to see Master, but we parted on bad terms. They don't like me very much."
"So your master only has one daughter?"
"Yes, I am half his daughter, because he adopted me!"
Xu Ge curled the corners of his lips as he looked at her optimistic and cheerful expression.
However, at this moment, the door of the teahouse was pushed open.
"Xiaoyue, where have you been slacking off again? Still..." The man stopped talking midway.
Xing Yue turned around and quickly stood up from her chair to explain.
"Master, I am having tea with guests. They invited me to have tea."
Xing Haoming's expression suddenly changed when he looked at the two of them.
The moment Xu Ge's eyes met his.
Xu Ge couldn't help but clench his fists, but looked at him without saying a word.
The man was wearing ordinary clothes and a pair of glasses. He was holding a few tea bowls in his hands and looking at them intently.
Zhou Chen looked up at Xu Ge before getting up from his chair and turning around.
Looking at Xing Haoming's stiff expression, he slowly said, "Hello, Mr. Xing, would you like to chat with us?"
Xing Haoming's eyes flashed, as if he finally came to his senses. He no longer dared to look at Xu Ge's face, and his expression became more panicked.
But he still said dryly, "But I don't know you."
Xu Ge sat in the chair without moving, and his eyes naturally did not move either.
She was looking at him, staring at him without blinking.
Is this her biological father?
This is the man her mother has loved and kept for her entire life?
Xing Haoming turned his body to the side and didn't look at them, but he could still feel the focused gaze. However, he didn't dare to look back, and his hands seemed to start shaking.
Zhou Chen glanced at his slightly trembling hands and was silent for a few seconds before whispering.
"Mr. Xing, we wouldn't have come here to bother you without any preparation."
Xing Haoming froze again when he heard this and didn't say anything for a long time.
So the few of them fell into an inexplicable stalemate.
Xing Yue seemed to have sensed something was wrong and scanned the people back and forth with her eyes.
She initially thought they were there to cause trouble, but it didn't seem like that at all.
She couldn't see their unkindness.
After all, she had experienced all kinds of embarrassment and unfriendliness since she was a child, so she could see very clearly that these two good-looking people did not have any malice in them.
In the end, Xing Yue spoke softly and tugged at Xing Haoming's sleeve.
"Master, who are they? Do you know them?"
Xing Haoming blinked and was silent for a long time before he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Xiaoyue, go wash these dishes."
Xing Yue took the bowl from his hand, looked at the two of them again before turning and leaving.
Xing Haoming lowered his stiff arms and looked up at the extremely outstanding man in front of him.
Zhou Chen looked calm.
Even with a hint of respect.
Xing Haoming pulled the corner of his lips,
Look away.
"you,
Come in and talk with me."
After saying this, Xing Haoming turned and went into the teahouse.
The movements were somewhat hasty.
Zhou Chen looked back at Xu Ge, walked over, took her hand, and looked down at her face.
"You don't have to talk if you don't want to."
Xu Ge's eyes flickered slightly, and finally he nodded slightly and followed him into the teahouse.
There were obviously still a few customers in the teahouse.
I was stunned when I saw them come in.
"Hey, Master Xing, you have a distinguished guest!"
Xing Haoming smiled at them and said, "After you finish your drink, please add more tea for yourselves. I will go and entertain you."
"Okay, Master Xing, don't worry about us. Just entertain the guests."
Xing Haoming nodded again, glanced quickly at the two of them, and pointed to a door.
"This way."
Zhou Chen nodded slightly, holding Xu Ge's hand and following behind him.
Behind the teahouse is the living area. The kitchen is right inside, and there are two bedrooms on both sides of the kitchen.
Xu Ge looked around the place calmly.
Xing Haoming pointed to the only sofa and said, "Please sit down wherever you like. Would you like some tea?"
Zhou Chen noticed his uneasiness and whispered, "Thank you. I just had some tea. It was delicious."
After saying that, she took Xu Ge to sit on the sofa.
Xu Ge sat quietly beside him, with his eyes lowered and silent.
Xing Haoming stood aside, not knowing what to do, and the atmosphere of silence spread again.
"Please sit down too. I'm afraid we'll have a longer conversation this time."
Xing Haoming suddenly looked up at the two of them. Zhou Chen's meaning was very clear. They had already investigated clearly.
, and have the evidence.
He curled the corners of his lips and finally pulled over a wooden chair and sat down.
After Zhou Chen saw him sit down, he went straight to the point, "I believe you know why my wife and I came to see you."
Xing Haoming didn't say anything and remained silent with his head down.
The parents' postures are exactly the same.
Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and continued, "You were the one who went to pay respect to my mother-in-law before, right?"
Xing Haoming wanted to deny it, but he also knew that they must have known something.
So Zhou Chen told him directly and frankly.
"I'm sorry, but we installed a camera at my mother-in-law's grave."
After hearing this, Xing Haoming suddenly looked up at him, "You..."
"I've been thinking about moving the grave for a long time. It's just a coincidence."
Xing Haoming's eyes flashed, and he looked away from him and looked at the person next to him.
Finally, he rested his hands on theirs for a long time before asking, "What do you want to know?"
"Everything." Zhou Chen answered concisely and directly.
Xing Haoming was silent.
After several minutes of silence, Xing Haoming slowly spoke.
"I, I didn't know she was pregnant at first. She, she broke up with me very suddenly. I went to look for her, but she was adamant. I was planning to wait for her to calm down for a few days, but when I went to look for her again, she was gone. I searched for her for a long, long time before I received a letter from her."
Xing Haoming lowered his head and muttered, "She said she met a very good man and she loved him very much. She also wished me to find the right person and asked me to forget her..."
Only after hearing this did Xu Ge finally look up and look at him face to face.
"Of course I didn't want to believe it. We had such a good relationship, I didn't understand why she suddenly broke up with me. I couldn't figure it out, so I followed the address on the letter to Lan County, but when I got there, I saw..."
"What did you see?" Zhou Chen asked in a low voice.
Xing Haoming looked up at him and then looked away, "I saw Mr. Zhou in Lan County..."
