Chapter 2310: Chapter 114: As Terrifying as Mo Ziye
“Atonement?”
Gu Zhitong gazed at the guilt and remorse on Mo Xin’s face, asking casually.
Mo Xin nodded heavily.
Since stepping out of the hotel with them, she had been pondering on how to explain.
If Gu Zhitong hadn’t saved her tonight, her fate would have been tragic.
And all because Shi Dongping had harmed her.
After weighing her options, Mo Xin decided to tell the truth, “Sister Tongtong, I met Shi Dongping a few years ago, but I didn’t know who he was back then.”
“What do you mean?”
Gu Zhitong squinted her eyes suddenly.
Listening to Mo Xin’s tone and watching her expression.
There were definitely problems here.
Up front, Tang Jinchen was slightly surprised, then his aura instantly turned cold.
“When was a few years ago?”
“I’m not my parents’ biological daughter; that’s what the man who was with Shi Dongping told me.”
“So because of this, the Shi Family took you in and let you live in their home?”
Tang Jinchen’s words were filled with deep suspicion and sarcasm.
Mo Xin knew they wouldn’t easily believe what she said.
She continued, “No, Shi Dongping let me live with the Shi Family because he is the killer who murdered Aunt An years ago.”
“Tell us everything you know.”
Tang Jinchen’s voice suddenly became sharp.
A chilling atmosphere instantly pervaded the car.
“I saw Shi Dongping when Aunt An had her accident.”
“Then why didn’t you say anything earlier?”
Gu Zhitong asked with a cold expression.
Knowing the “truth” about Aunt An’s death back then, she fled at the first opportunity.
No matter how hard Ziyi investigated the culprit over the years, Mo Xin hadn’t been willing to reveal the truth.
“I wasn’t sure before.” Mo Xin suddenly teared up and said with grievance and sadness, “After such an event happened back then, I regretted it to death and was scared to death. I didn’t know that person, so I didn’t dare to speak out… Just a few days ago, I accidentally saw Shi Dongping’s interview on TV and then realized his name was Shi Dongping.”
By this point, Mo Xin was already in tears.
“Sister Tongtong, I didn’t want to hide anything, nor did I want to team up with the Shi Family to hurt Qingqing. Instead, I wanted to infiltrate the Shi Family, figure out how Shi Dongping killed Aunt An, gather evidence, and avenge Aunt An.”
“Where’s the evidence?”
Tang Jinchen asked with a cold laugh.
“Now you’re claiming Shi Dongping is the killer, but how can you prove you’re not involved? Had you not seduced Mo Ziye back then, maybe none of this would have happened.”
“Whether you believe it or not, I didn’t kill Aunt An.”
Mo Xin wiped her tears stubbornly, defending herself.
“I don’t have any evidence now, but Shi Dongping’s willingness to take me in is the best evidence.”
“Who is Shi Dongping? Without any evidence, he would be threatened by you?”
Gu Zhitong didn’t know Shi Dongping, but Tang Jinchen did.
“At first, I also thought he agreed to let me stay because I threatened him, but now I know he wants to use me.”
A trace of sorrow emerged on Mo Xin’s face.
Gu Zhitong understood she was referring to the incident tonight where she was nearly assaulted by Sun Guotao.
She said calmly, “Since you know Shi Dongping’s character, you should know that cooperating with him won’t end well. Mo Xin, if you don’t want a miserable fate, you should know what to do next.”
“There’s an unspeakable secret between Sun Guotao and Shi Dongping.”
Mo Xin hesitantly said.
Tang Jinchen and Gu Zhitong paused, “What secret?”
“Specifically, I’m not sure. It’s just something I sensed from their conversation. After seeing Sun Guotao tonight, I also think the figure in Shi Xi’s scandal report should be Sun Guotao.”
“Anything else?”
Tang Jinchen pondered and asked.
“That’s all I know.”
Upon arriving at the restaurant, before stepping out, Gu Zhitong asked again, “Are you going back to the Shi Family?”
“No.”
Mo Xin hesitated, then added, “I can’t go back tonight; tomorrow I will settle things with Shi Dongping.”
“Then come with me.”
“Thank you, Sister Tongtong.”
This time Mo Xin’s words were sincere.
She was unfamiliar with the Imperial City.
Alone, she feared being caught by Shi Dongping and given to Sun Guotao, that perverted old man.
“No need to thank me. I will call Ziyi later, then you can talk to him yourself.”
“…Okay.”
After a long pause, Mo Xin finally mustered the courage to agree.
Returning to the private room, before Tang Jinchen could ask, Ye Zhan proactively informed them, “Shi Dongping left after you departed and settled the bill.”
Mo Xin sat next to Gu Zhitong, keeping her head lowered as she entered.
She dared not look at the three people in the room.
Now, hearing Ye Zhan’s deep and gentle voice, she couldn’t help but lift her gaze towards him.
Her sight touched his cold and profound eyes, causing a slight tremor in her heart, and she quickly looked away.
This man was very handsome.
Yet, his gaze was very indifferent.
It reminded her of facing Mo Ziye.
At this moment, Tang Jinchen said, “There might be secrets between Shi Dongping and Sun Guotao.”
Ye Zhan’s eyes flickered deeply as his gaze swept over Mo Xin.
Without Tang Jinchen needing to elaborate, they roughly understood her near-assault incident involving Sun Guotao.
“Sun Guotao is the man who impregnated Shi Xi; Shi Dongping likely intends to give you to him because of the scandalous exposure involving Shi Xi, maybe Sun Guotao has ideas about Shi Xi now.”
“…”
Mo Xin kept her head down, afraid to speak.
She was shocked by this man’s analytical ability.
She hadn’t known before, but now, she did.
“Since you previously stayed at the Shi Family, then continue staying there.”
As Ye Zhan spoke, Mo Xin’s face instantly paled, “I can’t go back.”
If she returned, Shi Dongping would certainly send her to Sun Guotao again.
Her scared eyes looked at Ye Zhan, this handsome man like Mo Ziye, similarly terrifying.
“Then do you want to go back to G City? I’ve heard Mo Ziye is searching for you everywhere.” Ye Zhan ignored the fear in Mo Xin’s eyes.
His voice spilling from thin lips was as cold as the winter night outside.
Mo Xin’s face paled even more at his words.
“Sister Tongtong said I could go with her.” She glanced at Gu Zhitong beside her and said timidly.
“You can’t be with her. Since you went to the Shi Family to investigate Shi Dongping’s wrongdoing, finish your work first. That’s the only way others will believe your genuine regret. I’ve talked to Mo Ziye over the phone; these are his intentions.”
“Ziyi said that?”
Mo Xin looked at Ye Zhan in disbelief.
How could Mo Ziye treat her like this?
Ye Zhan elegantly took a sip of water from the cup in front of him, placed it back on the table, and directly dialed a number.
It rang several times, but no one answered.
Just as Mo Xin breathed a sigh of relief, hoping Mo Ziye wouldn’t pick up, a soft female voice came through, “Hello!”
