She giggled, and her light voice made passers-by feel creepy, and she suddenly quickened her pace and walked away as if she were running away.

Eric looked at her calmly.

"Who made you fail to do a good job?" she patted Eric on the shoulder, "People, you have to pay for what you do." ”

"What is your price?" said Eric, laughing suddenly.

The face of the visitor turned pale.

"The price for you is to become insane," Eric said in a low and vicious voice, "and the loss of everything has given me a great advantage, and I have to think less about how to take these things out of your hands." ”

The hand on Eric's shoulders slowly tightened, and his nails almost dug into his flesh through the thick woollen coat.

Eric still stared at her calmly.

She finally calmed down and said strongly: "Don't worry about my business, let's think about what you should do." With that, she let go of her hand, turned her head and left.

Eric dusted his shoulders, as if something dirty had been left behind in the place where the woman had just touched.

Watching the woman's figure disappear at the door of the hotel, he took a deep breath, and the cold qi filled his body.

After the little episode just now, it didn't change his decision at all.

He took out his phone without a hurry and clicked on the first number in the call log.

Soon, a familiar voice came to my ears.

"Eric, what's wrong?"

Eric looked in the direction of the hotel gate, closed his eyes, and said, "Xihe, I have one thing, something very important to confess to you." ”

"Eh?" Qiao Xihe was surprised, listening to Eric's tone was strange, but when he talked on the phone before, it was clearly normal, what did he find in the past two hours?

Eric said: "I don't know if you are free or interested in listening to a story. ”

"Say it. Qiao Xihe put down the book and picked up the cup on the small coffee table.

Eric said: "Once, there was a young and beautiful woman, she was very simple, innocent, and had fairy tale fantasies about love, thinking that she would meet a prince charming who was unparalleled in the world. The reality is true, at a party, she met a young and promising man, both in appearance and character, which fascinated women and took the initiative to pursue them. And the man told her that he was still single and that he had fallen in love with the woman at first sight, so they quickly fell in love. ”

Qiao Xihe listened patiently, although this story seems quite cliché at present, don't many idol dramas like this?

Eric listened to the shallow breathing sound of the earpiece and continued: " The woman thinks that she has been happy, and this love will last a lifetime, she and her prince charming will last forever, but she doesn't know, in fact, this man is married, he is the heir of a big family business, for the development of the family, and another rich family daughter of the eldest lady married, but there is no affection between them, so he lingered, wanting to find the truth, but did not think that his married status would hurt his beloved. ”

Qiao Xihe frowned slightly, "This man is too scumbag......"

"Haha......" Eric chuckled softly.

Qiao Xihe said: "If this woman knew the truth and knew that her so-called happy love was actually a junior who intervened in other people's marriages, how sad would she be?"

"yes. Eric nodded, "There is no impermeable wall in the world, when this woman was about to give birth to the crystallization of their love, she suddenly discovered the truth that the man was married, she couldn't accept the reality, she couldn't accept that she had become a junior...... Even, she also had doubts about the man's feelings, maybe she was just a plaything to be played with at will? In anger, she had a difficult birth, and although she tried her best to give birth to a child, she died of hemorrhage. ”

Hearing this, Qiao Xihe gasped, "It's so pitiful...... She's innocent, damn it's that man. ”

"Well, yes...... Eric's pause and continued, "When the man arrived at the hospital, all he saw was the cold corpse of the woman, and the newborn child, lying alone in the incubator......"

He ...... Did you take the child back?" Qiao Xihe asked.

Eric said, "No. ”

Qiao Xihe was shocked, and said with a little anger: "The newborn child has lost his mother again, what does he want to do?"

Eric said: "With his situation at the time, he couldn't let others know that he had an illegitimate child outside, and he had to play a harmonious and happy couple with his wife that everyone envied, so he decided to find a relationship, forged the child's birth certificate, and handed it over to a couple who could not have children to raise." ”

"......" Qiao Xihe was speechless, "I guess, he hasn't taken care of this child since then, right?"

Eric said, "It's not like I didn't care, did I...... Before this child became an adult, he did not even appear in front of the child once, and the child only learned about his life experience, who his biological mother was, and how he died on the day he became an adult. ”

"Why did you say it again all of a sudden?" Qiao Xihe was puzzled, "This is undoubtedly another harm to the child......?

Eric said, "He doesn't care if he does harm to others." ”

Qiao Xihe smiled helplessly, yes, if he knew how to cause harm to others, this man would not have deceived an innocent woman's feelings at the beginning.

Eric said: "Because he discovered the secret of his wife's family, he can only find this child and train him to be a qualified heir." ”

"Huh. Qiao Xihe sneered.

"All of this, it's funny, isn't it?" asked Eric with a laugh.

Qiao Xihe said: "Yes...... But what is the secret of the wife's family?"

Eric looked at the door of the hotel that was gradually becoming lively, and said word by word: "He found out that his wife's family has a mental illness with genetic risk. ”

"Hereditary mental illness?" Qiao Xihe frowned again, why did it sound a little familiar?

"Yes, is that retribution for him?" asked Eric.

Qiao Xihe shook her head, "No, it's not retribution on him......" She smacked her lips, feeling that the story Eric told was a bit weird, which really made her wonder why he was talking to herself, "Eric, how do I think a man's wife is someone I know?"

"Well, you do know this person. Eric smiled wryly.

"Huh?" Qiao Xihe was stunned, "Who is it?"

"Lu Xiwen's mother. ”

"Lu Xiwen's mother ......" Qiao Xihe repeated in a low voice, going around in his mind, and suddenly understood, "How do you know......

Eric has nothing to do with the Lu family, how could he know such a secret thing?

A spirit, she thought of a possibility, probably the only possibility, because Eric wouldn't tell her about it for no reason.

Her eyes widened suddenly, she felt her throat itch terribly, and she swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva with great effort before she reluctantly spoke, "Eric, is it ...... Are you ......?"
