225 “After Fast Traveling and Sleeping with the Villain” World 7, Substitute Lover (36)

When Xue Dehui said this, he lit a cigarette.

The rising smoke blurred the outline of the man’s strong face and blurred his expression. Only the pair of dark eyes reflecting the firelight appeared particularly clear.

Xue Xue also got out of the car with Xue Dehui and leaned against the car door.

She had no doubts about Xue Dehui’s words, because Xue Li’s memory was completely correct with her own speculation. A person like Xue Liansong, who was used to being strong, would not make fun of his own hard work even if he owed something to his granddaughter who was abandoned by his son and daughter-in-law.

Compared with that little guilt, Xue Li’s usefulness was what attracted Xue Liansong’s attention.

And the weaker the relationship with parents, the easier it is to control.

It’s just that the relationship between Xue Zhen and Yang Qing’s eyebrows seemed to be much worse in Xue Dehui’s description than Xue Li thought.

Why is this?

“The relationship between dad and Yang Qingmei has long since died.”

Xue Dehui doesn’t need to explain this, Xue Xue also knows it.

“It’s not just as simple as you think.” As if he could see through people’s thoughts, Xue Dehui always accurately solved Xue Xue’s doubts with one sentence.”Remember Yang Qingmei’s subsequent pregnancy, right?”

Of course Xue Xue remembers it.

That was her missed brother, and the trigger that prompted Yang Qingmei and Xue Zhen to divorce.

Yang Qingmei, who had just lost her child and was in confinement, learned of the existence of Xue Dehui, a boy of the same age as Xue Li, who was the best evidence that her husband had cheated on her and she was deceived like a fool. Although the two had been inseparable for a long time, without this sudden episode, it was hard to say how long their marriage would have dragged on.

After all, it was the same way in the previous years.

Just when Xue Xue was thinking about Xue Dehui’s intention in mentioning this matter, the man’s next words directly shocked Xue Xue.

“That child is not dad’s.”

“…What?”

Even if Xue Xue is good at keeping calm, it is definitely not in this situation.

She stared in shock at the man who seemed completely unaware that he had made a shocking revelation.

“You heard it right.” Xue Dehui held the cigarette between his slender fingers, and the red light was very eye-catching in the deep night.”That’s it.”

“Yang Qingmei hid it very well. My mother accidentally learned the news at that time and spent a lot of money to hire a credit reporting agency to investigate carefully. Unexpectedly, this investigation actually revealed something to her.” The man slowly exhaled a circle of smoke from his thin lips.”My mother brought this matter to my father. This is probably the bad nature of men. It’s okay for me to cheat on myself, but my wife can’t cuckold him.”

Xue Xue clearly saw the sarcasm on Xue Dehui’s face.

A taunt directed at Xue Zhen.

Xue Xue blinked and realized that the Xue Dehui in Xue Li’s memory and the Xue Dehui in front of him were indeed two completely different people.

Not just conjecture, but fact.

Is it because Xue Li misunderstood Xue Dehui or…

“The father of that child is…”

Xue Dehui did not answer this time, but raised his eyelids and looked at Xue Xue quietly.

The answer is already obvious.

But then she thought of another question, a very urgent question.

“Then my father…”

“Tsk.” Xue Dehui chuckled, looking at Xue Xue as if he was looking at a fool.”Of course you are dad’s daughter, otherwise would it be possible for Xue Liansong to bring you with him?”

This is true.

Xue Xue thought that she was confused because she was concerned. If Xue Li was not Xue Zhen’s child, how could Xue Liansong pass “Laiyao” to her?Even if he was optimistic about Xue Li, Xue Liansong, who had other choices, would not do such a thing.

But then it all makes sense.

She also thought at that time that if only Xue Dehui’s side had irrefutable evidence of cheating, considering how favored Yang Qingmei was in the Yang family, she should not let the Xue family go so easily.

Now, from Xue Dehui’s mouth, Xue Xue understood the cause and effect of the matter.

It seems to be unexpected, but if you think about it carefully, it is reasonable and sad.

There was silence between the two of them for a while.

“Dad has always wanted me to take over and shine.”

“He has been planning this for a long time.” When Xue Xue looked over, Xue Dehui lowered his eyelids to cover his emotions.”It goes much deeper than you think.”

“Oh.” Xue Xue thought for a while and said lightly.”So what? Could it be…”

Suddenly, Xue Xue felt like he had grasped the tail of logic.

“Are you trying to say that those words and actions against me in the company were not your original intentions?”

Xue Xue stared at Xue Dehui closely, trying to find any flaw in his mask-like face, but Xue Dehui ignored Xue Xue’s question except looking away.

“Xue Dehui…”

“Just two years ago, my father introduced me to a person. He said that as long as that person is willing to stand by my side, Laiyao will be in his pocket. Those old men on the board of directors have nothing to fear.”

“What? Xue Dehui, don’t change the subject…” Xue Xue, who was originally impatient with Xue Dehui’s vague attitude, suddenly paused because an absurd but seemingly reasonable inference emerged in her mind.”You said Xue Zhen introduced you to someone… couldn’t it be…”

For some reason, the familiar name became so strange in an instant that it was extremely difficult to say the two words clearly.

At this moment, Xue Dehui was finally willing to look directly at Xue Xue, with a look of helplessness and pity.

“Yes.”

“The person I’m talking about is Chi Yu.”
