Even if Xiang Yi Mo wished that this dumb-ass original male lead was an impostor, even after she walked out of the Qin family, she didn’t say a word about her outrageous flash of conjecture because it was merely her conjecture.
Until this conjecture was proven to be true, Xiang Yi Mo didn’t intend to add one more thing to Auntie Qin’s worry in vain.
After all, Qin Chu still resembled Uncle Qin.
So there is no such thing as bringing home the wrong baby unless…
Xiang Yi Mo shook her head. Her mind subconsciously recalled Father Qin’s gentle and harmless face. She didn’t really want to think badly of him since he had always been a good father and husband.
Besides, Qin Shen can’t be Auntie Qin’s illegitimate son, right?
Because Qin Shen and Qin Chu are of the same age.
So could it be that Auntie Qin actually had two children back then, and one was taken away by an enemy or someone with that intention?
Mm. That sounds even more wrong.
If they were twins and one was really missing, how could the Qin family not search for the child?
Although a paternity test wasn’t a hassle, what if it is not true? The matter will be much simpler if the Qin family has a missing child
But the Qin family doesn’t have a missing child.
The more she thought about it, the more distressed she became. Suddenly a flash of light struck her.
Chotto matte! <sup>[1]</sup> Just now, I really cared too much about this and that and cornered myself.
Even though it may not be convenient to do it openly, we can secretly do a paternity test for the two of them!
Xiang Yi Mo told her thoughts to Ji Heng Yu.
Ji Heng Yu smiled. “I have already instructed someone to do it.”
Xiang Yi Mo nodded her head. Her thoughts suddenly drifted back to the original novel, where Auntie Qin ended up dying in a car accident.
Why was it an accident?
She had read only a few briefly described sentences in the original novel with no further information. To save Auntie Qin from this car accident, she had asked Xiao Qi earlier.
In fact, Xiao Qi wasn’t omnipotent and couldn’t divulge many things from heaven. Xiao Qi might not be able to find out with his extent of power.
Therefore, within Xiao Qi’s power, Xiao Qi told Xiang Yi Mo the information that Qi Fang Hao had died in the original novel.
Xiang Yi Mo subconsciously linked Auntie Qin’s death to both Qin Shen and Qin Chu. The more she thought about it, the more she found this thought terrifying.
Because the real cause of Auntie Qin’s death wasn’t a car accident.
Xiao Qi told her that Auntie Qin was resuscitated after the car accident, but unfortunately, she had become a vegetable. It was later due to the caretaker’s negligence that caused Auntie Qin’s actual death.
If this so-called negligence was malicious? Or, even if the car accident wasn’t an accident?
Then it must be that Auntie Qin found out something that would harm someone, such as that Qin Chu was really a fake young master…
When Xiang Yi Mo thought to this extent, her heart beat abruptly fast.
Xiang Yi Mo held her breath slightly and couldn’t help but call out to the system.
Xiao Qi: 「 I’m here. 」
Xiang Yi Mo: Can you tell me if Qin Chu is Auntie Qin’s child? Or is Qin Shen the child of Auntie Qin?
Xiao Qi: 「 …. Yes. 」
Xiang Yi Mo: Who is?
Xiao Qi: 「 As you have imagined, it’s Qin Shen. 」
Upon hearing this unsurprising answer, Xiang Yi Mo’s raised heart didn’t relax and instead rose.
Xiang Yi Mo: So, it’s Qin Chu who caused Auntie Qin to die?
Xiao Qi didn’t reply. But to Xiang Yi Mo, it was a tacit admission in disguise. The answer was already vividly portrayed.
Xiang Yi Mo and Ji Heng Yu returned home and also told the two about the incident.
After hearing about this, Jing Qian and Lu Wang Chen were surprised. Although they didn’t appear to show much expression, their thoughts were the same as what Ji Heng Yu had thought at that time.
Especially… after looking at the photos of Qin Shen and Grandma Qin.
