Ye Mingqian opened her eyes, and the knock on the door continued, and she realized that it was not an illusion.
I slowly got up, my head was a little dizzy, and my feet felt like stepping on cotton when they landed.
She touched her forehead and felt it was cold.
A little low fever.
Ye Mingqian held onto the wall and waited for her vision to return to normal before opening the door.
As soon as the lock was opened, someone rushed in.
"Lee Seung Suk?"
She held the door handle, the wind blew into the living room from the open door, and the wind chimes on the copper pipes made a clear and sweet sound.
"Were you also in Chi Yanchen's office yesterday?"
Li Chengxi was wrapped in a windbreaker and wearing glasses, leaving only half of his face outside.
"Um."
Judging from his appearance, he must have known the truth back then.
"You must also know that Mrs. Huo's death has nothing to do with you."
"That's not what I said." Li Chengxi interrupted her by pacing around irritably.
"Then what do you want to say?"
Ye Mingqian held her dizzy forehead and became angry, "You rushed to my house early in the morning. What do you want to do?"
Li Chengxi turned around, met her eyes, and looked startled.
Her round and petite shoulders were exposed, her legs were long and slender under her silk nightgown, and her flawless white skin shone in the morning light.
"Li Chengxi?" Ye Mingqian called his name impatiently.
"sorry."
Being brought back to reality, he retracted his gaze in panic and turned around awkwardly.
"I don't want to hear your apology. Please explain your purpose."
She still had a fever and just wanted to rest.
"No offense to Miss Ye, I just heard this news suddenly and couldn't believe it and couldn't find someone to confirm it, so I came to see Miss Ye."
If Liu Fulong hadn't held him back, he was too forward-thinking. In fact, he wanted to knock on the door last night.
"You go on."
Ye Mingqian poured a glass of water to moisten his throat.
"Mrs. Huo." Li Chengxi said hesitantly: "Is she really my aunt?"
She didn't answer yes or no directly, but threw the question back to him.
"That's what Aunt Chen said. Whether you believe it or not depends on you."
"I believe it." Li Chengxi nodded without hesitation.
Recalling the warmth Chi Wanqing brought to him back then, he still has tears in his eyes.
He longed for family affection and desperately wanted to find his lost family. He once imagined that his parents had no choice but to throw him into an orphanage.
After searching for so many years, who would have thought that Chi Wanqing, who treated him as her own child many years ago, would be his relative.
"Has she recognized me a long time ago?" Li Chengxi choked with sobs.
"Probably."
Ye Mingqian was shattered to pieces by the international high-end design filter in front of her.
"Then why doesn't she recognize me? Am I too bad to let her down?"
"No." She sighed, comforting people was the thing she was least good at.
"I'm just guarding against Huo Jili."
Li Chengxi allowed the tears in his eyes to flow down. He was silent for a long time and then said, "Since you said that Mrs. Huo's death has nothing to do with it, is it related to Mr. Huo?"
"yes."
Ye Mingqian could nod with certainty at this point.
"I see."
He lowered his head and whispered softly. When he raised his head again, his eyes were full of determination, "If the law cannot punish Huo Jili, then let me do it."
"Don't talk like a child."
Ye Mingqian only felt her head getting heavier, and she sat down weakly.
"It's easy to save a life, but before he dies, the blood debts he owed must be made public one by one, and the truth of what happened back then must be revealed."
Chi Wanqing of the Chi family is like this, and so is the Zhou family.
Otherwise, how can their souls rest in heaven?
"You're right, then I'll find a way." Li Chengxi stood up and was about to leave.
Ye Mingqian pressed him down and said, "What can you do? You have been abroad for many years. How many connections do you have in China that you can use? Don't do bad things. It would be better to attract Huo Jili's attention and alert the snake."
"What you said is wrong."
A strange glint flashed in Li Chengxi's eyes, "Huo Jili is not your future husband? Why didn't you speak for him just now?"
There was even a hint of hatred.
"You don't need to know about my affairs. Just stay quietly and run the show well. If you really need help, Chi Yanchen will come to you."
Ye Mingqian's words shocked Li Chengxi. He pointed at her and was speechless for a long time, "You and Chi Yanchen are actually in the same group?"
"It was true in the past, but I can't say for sure in the future. I can only say that when it comes to dealing with Huo Jili, you are right to turn to him. The premise is that you must be useful."
Unlike her, she has no use value.
She suddenly remembered, "Who told you this yesterday?"
"Chen Honghong."
The name Li Chengxi spit out was something she had never thought of.
"What did she say to you? When did she say it?" Ye Mingqian asked in succession.
"I can't remember what time it was in the early hours of yesterday morning."
When Li Chengxi received a call from this strange woman, he was confused when he heard what she said. After he finished digesting it and went to find someone, after a day of inquiring and running around, he was blocked from the police station.
Or he remembered the details that Chen Honghong said at the beginning that her mother had gone to Chi Yanchen and told him the truth.
But he didn't dare to go to Chi Yanchen. He held it in all night and stood outside the door with the wind blowing for several hours before knocking on Ye Mingqian's door.
"I heard from Liu Fulong that you were in Tengtian, and I was wondering if I might know something about it."
"You're quite smart."
Ye Mingqian felt a little headache after listening to his convoluted story.
"Chen Honghong said that she originally planned to sell my identity letter to Huo Jili, but her mother stopped her and the two got into an argument before accidentally killing someone."
After his words, she deduced that after Chen Honghong mistakenly killed Aunt Chen that night, she was devastated and entrusted all the truth to Li Chengxi.
That is to say, Huo Jili still doesn't know that Li Chengxi's true identity is from the Chi family.
"But why did Chi Yanchen say that Huo Jili wouldn't let you go?"
Ye Mingqian didn't understand this very much.
Li Chengxi didn't see him kill Mrs. Huo with his own eyes.
"Because I saw him coming out of Mrs. Huo's ward."
Back then, he was worried about Chi Wanqing's health. After notifying the doctor, he hurried back. He was running at the front just in time to see Huo Jili coming out.
Then not long after, he hurried in from outside as if he had just answered a call from the hospital.
At that time, he just felt something was wrong, but he didn't think about anything else.
"It's really stupid now that I think about it."
He slapped his head in annoyance.
"He is so scheming and it's normal to not expect anything."
Ye Mingqian comforted him after knowing the reason.
Suddenly, she stared at Li Chengxi's facial features as if she had discovered something, and her eyes widened in surprise.
"Have you found your mother in these years?"
Her sudden question made Li Chengxi stunned for a while, and then he shook his head: "No, it was too long ago, and the orphanage at that time did not have cameras. However, I went to collect blood for storage a few days ago. If my parents were there, Look for me, if the pairing is successful, you can probably find it."
