After all, the truth will come out.
That afternoon, Mu Qiao and Mu Qing received a call from the Yingkou security guards, saying that a boy claimed to be their younger brother and asked to meet with them.
"Brother?" Mu Qiao put down the phone and frowned in confusion. Where did her brother come from?
Mu Qiao left the office in confusion. Qiao Lubai came towards her. Seeing Mu Qiao, he handed her the document in his hand and said, "The military exercise of the Seventh Purge Group went smoothly. Meng Qiancheng has made an indelible contribution. This is the military leadership's praise for him. Please help convey it."
Mu Qiao didn't answer. "I have to go to Yingkou. There's a boy who claims to be my brother asking to see me."
"Brother?" Qiao Lubai was stunned. Didn't the Mu family only have three daughters? How did a brother suddenly appear?
Facing Qiao Lubai's surprised eyes, Mu Qiao shrugged, indicating that she was also confused.
Out of nowhere, he had a new brother-in-law, and Qiao Lubai wanted to meet him.
Thus, the guard room at the camp gate became lively. Mu Qiao, Qiao Lubai and Mu Qing sat on the sofa in the guard room, looking at the boy about ten years old sitting on the sofa opposite them, and looked at each other in bewilderment.
...
...
"My name is Mu Chun, and I'm your younger brother." Mu Chun said to Mu Qiao and Mu Qing, "You didn't know of my existence before, but that was because Dad didn't want you to know."
He looked at Qiao Lubai again, "Brother-in-law, you are the best-looking man in military uniform I have ever seen!"
This is flattery, absolute flattery. Qiao Lubai is so smart, how could he be fooled by this kid.
He looked handsome and stern, glanced at the little boy with sharp eyes, and asked coldly, "You said you were a child of the Mu family, then why did you come to Snow Wolf Camp alone?"
"I just want to see my two sisters in military uniforms." Mu Chun looked at Mu Qiaohe, who was wearing camouflage uniforms, with sparkling eyes, "My eldest sister looks so heroic in camouflage uniforms!"
He looked at Mu Qing, who was wearing a nurse's uniform, and asked, "Third sister, why aren't you wearing a military uniform?"
"I'm a nurse and I have to wear work clothes during work hours." Mu Qing didn't dislike this brother who suddenly appeared, but she couldn't accept that her father had betrayed her mother for ten years and her mother didn't even know about it. It was so infuriating.
Mu Qiao kept staring at Mu Chun who was deliberately acting cute. Although the child was only ten years old, he was a very thoughtful child and was not simple.
"Kid, did you come to the Snow Wolf by yourself?" Mu Qiao stared into Mu Chun's eyes and asked word by word.
Mu Chun blinked his eyes very innocently, as if thinking, and after a long while he replied, "I didn't come here alone."
"Where is the person who came with you?" Qiao Lubai asked immediately.
Mu Chun pointed to the dirt road in Yingkou and said, "My dad's driver brought me here."
"Old Chen?" Mu Qing looked at Mu Chun to confirm.
Mu Chun nodded, "It's Uncle Chen."
Old Chen has been with Dad Mu for ten years, which means that Old Chen knows that his dad cheated on his wife and had a child outside.
Old Chen usually looks quite honest, but I didn't expect that he could help his dad hide so well, it was simply flawless.
Mu Qing couldn't bear it any longer. She stood up suddenly and asked Qiao Lubai, "Deputy Captain Qiao, can I go out of the camp and talk to Lao Chen?"
"Go ahead." Qiao Lubai nodded, and Mu Qing left.
Mu Qiao looked at Mu Chun and asked, "Who is your mother?"
"My mother is dead." Mu Chun pursed his lips, wanting to cry but unable to. His eyes were red and he looked pitiful.
"How did she die?" Mu Qiao asked again, his tone softened.
Mu Chun sniffed, "Dad said, he said she died of illness."
Died of illness?!
Mu Qiao suddenly remembered something that happened five years ago. That year, she came back from the peacekeeping mission in Country W. Her mother was seriously ill, but her father was nowhere to be found. It was the driver, Lao Chen, who was taking care of her mother.
Three months later, my dad suddenly came back. From then on, he went out early and came back late, and sometimes he was not seen for several days.
This proves that my dad's mistress died of illness five years ago, leaving him with Mu Chun, a son. In order to take care of Mu Chun, my dad was away from home for only three to five days.
At that time, my mother called Mu Qiao every night to complain.
Thinking about it this way, Mu Qiao was almost certain that Mu Chun was his father's illegitimate son.
It’s just that Mu Chun has a gentle look, unlike his father who has rough features. As to whether they are biological father and son, it would be better to do a DNA test just in case.
Compared with her brother's identity, Mu Qiao was more worried about her mother. However, she called her mother many times, but her mother didn't answer.
As a last resort, she could only call using Mu Qing's cell phone.
"Hello, the number you dialed is turned off."
Mom turned off her phone?
Mu Qiao did not panic. He calmed down and called his grandmother.
Grandma is over seventy years old, so Mu Qiao didn't dare to show any emotion. He greeted her first and then asked about his mother.
Grandma said, "Your mother came home yesterday and said she wanted to discuss something with your uncle. She went to your uncle's house today."
Mu Qiao's uncle is a lawyer, and a famous lawyer in Yishui City. Last time my father got into trouble, my mother asked my uncle for help. If it weren't for Qiao Lubai's help, my uncle would have already prepared the materials for the lawsuit.
This time my mother went to find my uncle again. It must be that my mother and my father had a fight. My mother wanted a divorce, but my father didn’t want to, so my mother went to find my uncle.
If Mom is determined to divorce, Mu Qiao will support her, after all, Dad is too unreliable.
In the past, my dad behaved so recklessly, but my mom put up with it. But now he has gone too far. Not only has he cheated on his wife, but he has also brought home a ten-year-old son. Any woman would go crazy.
Mu Qiao contacted his uncle Ye Xin privately.
"Uncle, if my mother insists on getting a divorce, please help her."
Ye Xin was very cautious about this and expressed his opinion as a lawyer, "Qiao Qiao, in terms of personal feelings, I think your mother's request is reasonable, that your father should be kicked out of the house, but there are many legal restrictions. Your father cheated on his wife ten years ago and had a child. If you had sued at that time, you would have won for sure, but..."
Ye Xin paused and continued, "But the third party has passed away, and the illegitimate child is only ten years old, not yet an adult, and needs your father to raise him. If your father is kicked out of the house, how can he raise the child? In addition to legal principles, there are also human relationships!"
What my uncle said makes sense. My mother’s request is indeed a bit extreme, but reasonable.
But we have to consider the possibility of leniency outside the law.
"Qiao Qiao, don't worry too much. My uncle will handle this matter properly."
With the help of his uncle, Mu Qiao finally felt relieved.
She wanted to ask for leave to go home and have a good talk with her mother, but her mother ignored her calls and even left her a message on WeChat, "Don't meddle in family matters. It has nothing to do with you and Mu Qing."
This text message reflected one piece of information: Mom already knew that Mu Chun came to Xuelang Yingkou to find her and Mu Qing.
Mu Chun was suddenly brought to Snow Wolf Camp by Lao Chen that day. It was not Mu Chun's accident, but his father did it on purpose.
Dad just wanted her and Mu Qing to go back and persuade Mom not to divorce.
Dad’s trick was really enough. The more Mu Qiao thought about it, the angrier he became. He went to bed without eating dinner.
Qiao Lu was busy until very late before returning home.
After hearing from the guard that Mu Qiao hadn't eaten dinner, he immediately went to the kitchen and made a bowl of noodles for Mu Qiao himself, and brought it to the bedside...
