Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xu Qing propped her chin on her hand while thinking about what to give Ao Heng. When she saw Xu Sizhi, she hurriedly stood up and asked in confusion, “What happened?”

“Sister, it’s about the three children’s background,” Xu Sizhi said in a low voice.

Xu Qing looked around and gestured for Xun Fen to go out and stand guard. Then, she asked Xu Sizhi to continue.

“Three years ago, Qiao Yanhui did go to Anning Village. At that time, he seemed to have been poisoned. When he passed by Anning Village, he fell into the small forest…” Xu Sizhi told her about the route Qiao Yanhui had taken back then. As long as it happened, there was a chance of being discovered.

Xu Qing lowered her eyes slightly, as if she had expected this. “Is there anything else?”

“Yes… Qiao Yanhui got someone to investigate this two years ago,” Xu Sizhi continued.

“I understand.” Xu Qing’s eyes flickered. As expected, Qiao Yanhui had known since long ago! So, Qiao Yanhui had completely accepted her for the sake of the children? He had known since two years ago. Was the wedding for the sake of giving the children a legitimate status?

Xu Sizhi hesitated for a moment before continuing, “Sister, I don’t know anything about Qiao Yanqi! Everything that has happened since she was born is too coincidental and perfect! Her birth is also so perfectly timed that it makes people suspicious.”

As he spoke, Xu Sizhi handed Qiao Yanqi’s information to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing quickly browsed through it. Indeed, the information about Qiao Yanqi was indeed too coincidental, so much so that it didn’t seem to be a mere coincidence… It made people suspicious.

“By the way, when we were investigating Qiao Yanqi, we realized that there were other people investigating Qiao Yanqi. The other party is very secretive and very powerful,” Xu Sizhi said. It seemed that many people suspected Qiao Yanqi’s identity! So Qiao Yanqi’s so-called perfect birth had long been suspected by people with ulterior motives?

When Xu Qing heard this, her hand that was flipping through the information paused. She wondered who that person was. Was it Qiao Yanhui? Xu Qing didn’t think about this anymore. She had to confirm something more important now, and it was about the three children!

Xu Qing went to the study alone to look for Qiao Yanhui. Qiao Yanhui was studying the Art of War. When Xu Qing saw the book, her eyes kept flickering.

“Little Qing, you’re here.” Qiao Yanhui hurriedly put down the book in his hand and reached out to hug Xu Qing, but Xu Qing dodged.

Qiao Yanhui frowned slightly. “What’s wrong? Who made you unhappy? Is it Qiao Yanqi? Or someone else?”

Speaking of Qiao Yanqi, after the incident at the Eldest Princess’s banquet, she was first slapped in the face by Xu Qing, then beaten up by Qiao Yanhui. As a result, Qiao Yanqi was still lying on the bed and could only curse Xu Qing fiercely, but she had no energy to do anything else.

Of course, what Qiao Yanqi couldn’t accept the most was that she had actually been severely punished by her Brother Hui! Moreover, she had been punished after she had been severely injured by Xu Qing! Brother Hui didn’t care about their kinship at all. Qiao Yanqi was heartbroken!

Xu Qing shook her head gently. She wasn’t worried about Qiao Yanqi at all. She looked at Qiao Yanhui with a mixed gaze as she asked, “You knew about the children’s background long ago?”

Xu Qing’s voice was a little muffled. Although it was a question, her affirmative tone was like a hammer that struck Qiao Yanhui’s heart.

Qiao Yanhui pursed his lips and didn’t say anything for a moment because he had too many things to say, but he didn’t know where to start for a moment. In the end, he only nodded.

“Then why didn’t you tell me? How long did you plan to hide it from me?” Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui with an impassive expression. She didn’t understand why Qiao Yanhui didn’t tell her! How could he not tell her about this? Didn’t she have the right to know? What did Qiao Yanhui take her for? Actually, even if Qiao Yanhui told her everything that happened back then, she might not have been angry! However, Qiao Yanhui chose to hide it from her. Was she important to him at all?! Xu Qing became more and more agitated. She couldn’t accept Qiao Yanhui hiding it. They were supposed to be the closest people to each other in the world.

Afraid that she would miss any of his changes in expression, Xu Qing’s bright eyes stared straight at Qiao Yanhui.

Qiao Yanhui put down his hand and sighed slightly as he said, “I was precisely afraid that something like this would happen. Sometimes, you really overthink things…”
