"In order to investigate events that occurred more than 10 years ago, you have to give me some more time."

"Okay, report back to me as soon as possible."

"I know boss, don't worry."

Yu Chen hung up the phone and pondered for a bit. What kind of temperament would Ling Qing's biological brother have?

At the same time, Ling Qing was calling Ling Bai's phone. There was a moment of silence when Ling Bai picked up, as if he was waiting for the other person to speak before responding.

Satisfied, Ling Qing decided to speak first. "You approached Yu Chen?"

"Brother Chen told you?"

"Yeah, he just told me. We are married, after all."

Ling Bai grit his teeth. "Showing off to me, Ling Qing? Think he likes you? He only told you out of duty because you're married. He was just afraid you would start a fight."

Was there any need for Ling Qing to rush? No, the show hadn't even started yet. Staying true to his character, he acted affectionately.

"What are you talking about, Xiao Bai? All these years, I've only liked you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have married him!"

"Then divorce him for me!" Ling Bai exclaimed angrily.

"Naturally," Ling Qing said calmly, "As long as you're willing to be with me."

Unbelieving, Ling Bai replied, "Sure, as long as you divorce him, I'll get together with you."

"Then you talk to our parents, ah, I mean my parents, first. Once they clarify the relationship you can return to your family and we can get together, okay?"

Sneering, Ling Bai retorted, "I knew it, Ling Qing. You just want to kick me out of the house, right? This is your plan to expel me from the Ling family."

"What?" Ling Qing said gently, "I'm just thinking about our future. After all, your feelings for me aren't as deep as my feelings for you. If you're unwilling to leave the family after I divorce Yu Chen, then I'll have lost my spouse as well as my family. I don't want to lose both."

"Aren't you afraid I'll tell Yu Chen what you're thinking?" Ling Bai asked.

In his heart, Ling Qing said, 'Go ahead and tell him. It's not that he doesn't know, but there'll be hell if he believes you!'

"What do I have to be afraid of? The reason for our marriage, don't you know? I don't really care, do you? Did you want me to tell Yu Chen that you're not a child of the Ling family?"

"You didn't tell him?" Ling Bai was astonished. Ling Qing didn't tell him about it?

Sighing, Ling Qing said sadly, "Xiao Bai, you really don't understand my affection for you. If you don't understand, then don't ask."

Since Yu Chen didn't know, then the change in his attitude wasn't because Yu Chen knew he wasn't a part of the Ling family?

Then why?

Was it because he made Yu Chen upset last time?

"Brother, you have to help me. Brother Chen won't talk to me, he just ignores me now. Can you help me contact him?"

"Are you kidding me, Ling Bai?'' Ling Qing said coldly, "Do I seem very magnanimous? Helping you get back together with Yu Chen, aren't you afraid I'll tell him your true identity?"

"No!" Ling Bai was terrified, "You can't tell him."

Hearing his words, Ling Qing was pacified. "If you don't want me to, of course I won't disclose it, but stop testing me. You know I'm not a gentleman and I like you, so I can't bear to let you see Yu Chen. If you keep bringing him up, I might do something that will invariably hurt you."
