At night, it was as dark as the abyss that swallowed everything.
Rong Yin sat in the empty cabin, staring at the video, and his fingertips trembled.
In the picture, Chi Michuan is wearing a black suit, with a cold expression and sharp eyes. He stood in a dim living room and whispered to a high-ranking government official.
The man's voice was calm: "Are you sure this woman won't leak secrets?"
Chi Michuan was silent for two seconds, and his tone slowly fell:
"She won't know."
The video stopped abruptly at this moment.
Rongyin's breathing stopped.
"She won't know."
This sentence was like a sharp blade, cutting the trust she had just built in her heart.
Chi Michuan, did you know everything from the beginning?
The familiar face suddenly became strange.
——
At the same time, Chi Michuan sat in the car, holding the old photo tightly.
Behind the photo, there is a row of vague but familiar handwriting:
[Rong Nian - Chi Jingyuan - 1999.3]
Rong Nian is the name of Rong Yin's mother.
Chi Jingyuan is his father.
Chi Yuchuan's heart suddenly shrank.
He suddenly remembered the words of his father before his death many years ago--
"Sooner or later you will know that you are not the only heir."
At that time, he thought that his father meant his greedy cousins, but he didn't expect that there was also a "secret sister".
Rong Yin, it is very likely that she is Chi Jingyuan's biological daughter.
He and her...
Chi Yuchuan's eyes suddenly became cold, and he immediately dialed Qin Su's phone: "Check Rongyin's birth information immediately. I want the earliest household registration information. The more secretive the better."
"Yes!"
Hanging up the phone, he clenched his fist fiercely.
He would rather all this be a misunderstanding.
But whether it's true or not, the enemy has already done it--
And Rong Yin probably has begun to doubt him now.
——
In the early morning, Rongyin left the safe house.
She drove into the city and went straight to the "Mingzhao Mansion" - the secret apartment of Chi Yuchuan.
She needs an answer.
Whether it's true or not, she wants to ask him face to face:
"Are you serious about what you said?"
At the door, the housekeeper saw that her face turned pale and quickly opened the door.
"Mr. Chi just came back last night, but his health has not recovered yet. You..."
"I'll go in by myself."
She pushed the door open and rushed to the second floor, with the door closed.
Rongyin pushed the door in, and the room was very quiet.
Chi Michuan leaned against the window, and his eyes fell on the skyline of the city, like a statue.
He didn't look back, but whispered:
"Here you are."
Rong Yin clenched his hands and said coldly, "How long will you hide it from me?"
Chi Yuchuan didn't move: "What do you mean?"
"Your conversation with that high-ranking official."
The air froze instantly.
"You said I wouldn't know, but I did."
Chi Yuchuan slowly turned around and looked at her. "Do you believe that video?"
"I believe in my eyes."
Chi Michuan raised his hand with a suppressed pain in his voice:
"Rongyin, I never regret knowing you or falling in love with you. Even if everyone says that we are arranged together, I will not let go.
"Bot I don't want to be treated as a pawn!"
With tears in Rong's eyes, "Do you know that I have been desperately protecting you these days, and you are actually one of them!"
Chi Michuan stepped forward and wanted to hold her hand, but she took a step back.
At that moment, his hands hung in the air and his fingertips trembled.
"I'm not." He whispered.
"If I were really, I wouldn't block that bullet for you."
Rong Yin closed his eyes and said, "I want to be quiet."
Chi Michuan finally did not force to stay any longer, but just whispered:
"Rong Yin, even if you leave now, as long as you look back - I will always be here."
She didn't look back.
The door slowly closed, and Chi Michuan's figure was hidden behind the door.
——
Night falls.
Rongyin stood by the river and dialed a number.
"I want to see you."
"Can't help it at last?" A cold male voice came from the other end.
"Tell me, are Chi Yuchuan and I brother and sister?"
The other party smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what your relationship is, what matters is whether you are willing to give up on him."
Rong Yin's voice was cold: "Who the hell are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know everything about you - including the truth that your mother was kicked out of the Chi family."
Rong Yin was stunned.
"Beside, your father's death was not an accident."
"I will give you something. When you see it, you will know that Chi Yuchuan is your biggest enemy."
The other party hung up the phone.
An express delivery was delivered to her door.
Inside, there is a DNA test application form - the signature is Chi Yuchuan.
P.S.: "Investigate inheritance disputes."
At this moment, Rongyin completely collapsed.
She cried.
Crying like a child who has lost the world.
She thought she had finally found someone worth entrusting for a lifetime.
But in reality, it was like a heavy punch, which made her have nowhere to escape.
