Chapter 1409: Twenty Years of Misunderstanding (2)
As Zhou Cheng spoke, he smiled apologetically at Qiao Mu. ” When we talked about the past, I accidentally talked a little too much. Perhaps it’s because you’re a little similar to her, so I told you about this. ”
Qiao Mu shook her head. ” I’m very interested in the story behind this work. If Mr. Zhou doesn’t mind, you can tell me. ”
Qiao Mu was not sure if Zhou Cheng was telling the truth. He did not mention anything about the child. Could it be that he really did not know of her existence?
This was impossible. Just like Zhou Cheng had said, Shu Xinyu was a very selfish person. With Shu Xinyu’s style, if she had wanted to threaten him to stay, she could have used the child. There was no way she would have hidden it from him.
And he said that the ending was very awkward, so what was going on?
The doubts in Qiao Mu’s heart grew deeper and deeper. She wanted to ask for clarification, but she didn’t want the other party to feel suspicious, so she could only suppress the anxiety in her heart and wait for him to take the initiative to speak.
...Zhou Cheng hung Shu Xinyu’s portrait back on the wall and adjusted its position. After pondering for a while, he said, “”Actually, there’s nothing much to say. It’s just that when you mentioned the child, it reminded me of something. After we fell out back then, I left the country and cut off contact with her. A year later, I found an unopened letter in the envelope. The date was that she had sent it to me a year ago. In the letter, she said that she was pregnant and would give birth to our child and was waiting for me to return. When I saw the letter, I immediately returned to the country. Later on, I found out that she was already married and did not have any children.”
Qiao Mu stood rooted to the ground in astonishment. The doubts in her heart were instantly resolved.
In order to keep Zhou Cheng, Shu Xinyu wanted to make use of the child in her stomach. She thought that Zhou Cheng would come back for the child, but he didn’t. Perhaps Shu Xinyu regretted it later, but when the child reached the stage where she had no choice but to give birth, she impatiently abandoned the child in the orphanage after the child was born.
Qiao Mu had always wondered why Shu Xinyu hated her so much and still gave birth to her in the end. She really thought that Shu Xinyu could not be ruthless and only had a shred of conscience toward her own flesh and blood.
It turned out that the reason why she could be born smoothly was because Shu Xinyu had always used her as a tool to keep Zhou City!
Because she was just a target to be used, when Shu Xinyu did not reach Zhou Cheng, she had lost her value and was abandoned!
“Miss Qiao?” Zhou Cheng called out softly when he saw Qiao Mu’s pale face.
Qiao Mu returned to her senses and forced a smile. ” I’m fine. It’s true that hearing such a story doesn’t make people happy. However, haven’t you ever thought that maybe she really is pregnant with your child? ”
” Maybe. Maybe she aborted the child before I replied. ” Zhou Cheng’s expression was a little lonely.
Qiao Mu’s heart tightened, and she opened her mouth, wanting to tell him that Shu Xinyu did not abort the child but threw it away after she was born, and she was that child.
However, he could not say anything in the end.
This man did not know of her existence at all. He did not know that he had another daughter in this world. He and Shu Xinyu had misunderstood each other for so many years. Now, why should she disturb his life because of her appearance?
He had his own happy family, a wife and children he loved. To him, she might have died in his womb before she was even formed. He might feel a little depressed when he thought of her, but it was just a past that was not worth mentioning.
