"Mr. Cao?" Lin Qifan was overjoyed and angry, looked at Cao Yi outside the door, and smiled faintly.

As soon as he opened the door, Cao Yi smelled the aroma of food in the house, saw Lin Qifan open the door, and saw that he and Mo Jiujiu were both dressed in simple and comfortable home clothes, and there was a trace of happiness between his eyebrows, but he endured it, and he also smiled: "Mr. Lin is so interested, but ...... Eating so late? ”

"I'm not Mr. Lin anymore, Mr. Cao, don't use the title indiscriminately." Lin Qifan said: "Something? ”

Seeing that Lin Qifan went straight to the topic and didn't intend to beat around the bush with him at all, Cao Yi's eyes fell directly on Mo Jiujiu inside, Mo Jiujiu sat at the dining table, didn't get up, and looked out of the door very calmly.

After looking at her for a while, Cao Yicai said, "Can I talk to her?" ”

His tone was not arrogant persecution, but almost a bit of begging, Mo Jiujiu frowned, of course she was unwilling, Lin Qifan didn't look back at her, just looked at Cao Yi lightly: "Mr. Cao, this kind of topic doesn't seem to have really been talked about between us, the previous few meetings were either in a hurry or talking about the company's contract, since you are standing here now, I will make it clear to you that Jiujiu is my fiancée, whether you have been in love in the past or not, it is already in the past, whether Mr. Cao you are in an old relationship or what." , I haven't had anything to do with you for a long time, so please move. ”

After saying that, Lin Qifan closed the door directly.

Cao Yi suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the handle of the door the moment the door was closed, Lin Qifan looked at him lightly, his expression was unhappy: "In the United States, trespassing on a private house is not a good thing, you should know the laws of the United States." ”

"Lin Qifan, you are nothing now, what are you fighting with me? I just want to say a few words to Jiujiu, but you are so obstructive, are you afraid that I will take her away? Cao Yi sneered and pulled the door open.

Lin Qifan did not force the door to close, let go of the handle of the door casually, and smiled faintly: "Fight? I don't need to fight. ”

Cao Yi lowered his face coldly and looked at Mo Jiujiu, who was sitting still: "Jiujiu, come here!" ”

Mo Jiujiu got up and walked into the kitchen as if he hadn't heard it, seeing that she completely regarded herself as nothing, Cao Yi didn't expect her to trust Lin Qifan so much, and immediately wrinkled her eyebrows: "Mo Jiujiu, if you want to know the real cause of your mother's death back then, come out to me!" My patience is limited! I've already fought this far for you, and I don't care about it! ”

Mo Jiujiu paused, and there was some doubt in his eyes.

What was the cause of her mother's death? Didn't he die of illness? When she was a child, she was very young, and she remembered that her mother was very weak for a few days before she died, and she had been lying in the hospital, and later, her father told her that her mother had died because of illness.

She had never doubted that.

was puzzled, Lin Qifan stood in front of Cao Yi, his expression was slightly cold: "The affairs of the Mo family are handled by the Mo family themselves, even if you want to interfere, it will not be your turn, Mr. Cao, I am being polite to you, you should be self-aware." ”

Cao Yi glanced at Lin Qifan coldly: "What? It seems that you also know that her mother was killed, so obviously, you are hiding her? ”

Lin Qifan sneered: "Go slowly, don't send it!" As the words fell, he slammed the door shut.

After closing the door, Lin Qifan looked at the door in front of him, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and when he turned around, he saw Mo Jiujiu looking at him, he walked over: "Eat first, after you recover from a serious injury, you will finally cook next time, and it will be wasted when it is cold." ”

Mo Jiujiu glanced at the door over there, Cao Yi was not knocking, as if he knew that her heart was in turmoil, but Mo Jiujiu just raised his eyebrows: "Is he deliberately saying this kind of thing to get my attention?" Or is there really something? ”

Lin Qifan looked at her for a while, raised his hand and touched her head, his eyes were full of pity: "For a long time, I hope your life is peaceful, there are not so many winds and waves, just live a warm and quiet life, no matter what happens, it is a thing of the past, more than ten years, there is no need to pursue it again." ”

"So, what Cao Yi said turned out to be true? I didn't take it seriously, I just asked you......" Mo Jiujiu looked at him in shock: "What the hell is going on?" I remember my mom ...... because she had been sick for a long time."

Lin Qifan hugged her and sat down at the dining table, put some vegetables in her bowl, and patted her on the shoulder: "I'll sue you after eating." ”

Seeing that he didn't want to deliberately hide anything from her, Mo Jiu nodded for a long time, but he was preoccupied, while eating the things in the bowl, while recalling the memories of his childhood, he was very young at that time, and many memories were vague, the only thing he remembered clearly was the days when his mother was haunted by the sickbed, she was not sensible because she was young, and she had pulled the children in the next ward in the ward to pile up the blocks, until her mother died, she was a little ignorant to understand something, lying on the side of the illness and listening to her mother, in her memory, Mom is a very warm woman, very gentle, she vaguely remembers her father said that her mother is sick.

After her mother died, she knelt for a whole day, and at that moment she grew up a lot, she remembered that it was raining that day, and relatives came to visit, and when she saw her kneeling outside, someone came to hug her, saying that she was really a poor child, and she vaguely remembered that there was a young woman that day, and that woman seemed to be the current Aunt Xiao.

Finally finished eating, Mo Jiujiu put the bowl on the table, raised his eyes to look at Lin Qifan, and saw him sitting opposite her, watching her eat with a dark and calm face, as if he could see that she was eating in a hurry, and there was a faint distress in her eyes.

"Say it."

"I also found out in the days when you were in the hospital." Lin Qifan said softly: "I temporarily heard my parents mention the incident of that year, in addition to you kneeling all day on the day of your mother's funeral, you also mentioned the cause of your mother's death, she was secretly put melted rat poison in the water and poisoned. ”

"Rat poison?!" Mo Jiujiu looked at him in astonishment: "How come?" More than ten years ago, American medicine has reached the point of detoxification of this drug! It's impossible to die! ”

"It's not going to be fatal, that's why your mother will linger on the sickbed for half a month before dying." Lin Qifan said: "Someone calculated that your father went abroad to talk about business at Christmas, and the maids at home were on vacation for the three days of Christmas, and your mother's water cup was poisoned with rat poison, because there was no one at home for those three days, so she was not treated in time after being poisoned, and it took three days for the maid to find out and be sent to the hospital, although the doctor tried his best to treat it, but it was still too late, and the rescue did not save your mother from the hands of death for several days, and finally she was still ......"

Mo Jiujiu looked at him in disbelief for a long time before he asked in a dumb voice, "Do you know who it is?" Who poisoned it? Who is so mad? How old was I? I can't remember where I was in those days, whether it was at a relative's house or where, I just remember being taken to the hospital by my dad and seeing my mom lying there, and they all said she was sick...... Who the hell is it? ”

"Actually, I'm also very curious, how could Cao Yi know these things, unless he found some clues and checked them a long time ago." Lin Qifan said softly: "When you were in high school or college, did your father see you with other women?" ”

"I saw my father's previous wife at that time, and the other one is the current Aunt Xiao, but I only met Aunt Xiao once, and most of the time my father drove to see me."

"It seems that Cao Yi should have checked them at that time, otherwise after so long, he would not have known about these things." Lin Qifan frowned: "The woman surnamed Xiao and your father have been together for many years, as for Dongdong......"

"I know it all." Mo Jiujiu suddenly interrupted him, as if he didn't want to hear anything about them anymore, but as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly paused, raised his eyes in astonishment, and saw Lin Qifan looking at herself seriously, her heartbeat instantly stopped beating: "Should it be ......?"

Lin Qifan didn't answer, but continued: "So many years have passed, it's too late to investigate now, and it's unknown whether it's suicide or homicide, my parents also said that this matter is their speculation, but no one knows the specific truth, after all, your father is tight-lipped about this matter." ”

"In other words, my mother was killed by my father and that woman?" Mo Jiujiu was unprecedentedly calm, but there was a cold in his eyes.

Lin Qifan walked up to her and stroked her shoulder with his hand: "I didn't tell you after I heard about it, firstly because I didn't want to affect your mood, and secondly, because more than ten years have passed since this incident, and whether the truth is as my parents said, I can't be completely sure." I didn't expect Cao Yi to mention this matter as well, since he had checked all the people around you and would mention it, I think the truth should be eight out of ten. Nine. ”

Mo Jiujiu sat silently for a long time, didn't say a word, didn't cry, didn't have too many expressions, just stared at a little with a faint look in his eyes, Lin Qifan knew that she needed time to digest, so he didn't say those useless words of persuasion, just caressed her shoulder.

"Qifan." Suddenly, Mo Jiujiu's eyes had a focal length, and he said softly: "I want to do something." ”
