Chapter 234: Harboring Malice
Chapter 234: Harboring Malice
Zhu Zhi nodded. "Your father's remains are currently preserved in an ice coffin, and have already been properly placed."
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu took a step forward with some excitement. She had begun to believe that the people in front of her were telling the truth, otherwise very few people would be able to tell about what happened between her and Qingzhi.
"Could you take me to see my father's remains?" Song Miqiu had been trying to avenge her father, but she hadn't been able to see his remains yet, and she seemed somewhat disappointed.
She blinked at Zhu Zhi, trying to get him to take her there.
The latter naturally tried his best to comply with Song Miqiu's requests, after all, Song Miqiu was his master's child, and as his subordinate, he should be treated well.
"Of course, after all, he is your father."
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu laughed out loud. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Yu Huailin with a smile, only then remembering that Yu Huailin was with her.
Realizing that her conversation had been overheard by someone nearby, Song Miqiu tapped her two index fingers together, pouted, and cautiously asked, "Did I accidentally let something slip?"
"Otherwise what?" Yu Huailin looked at the other person with amusement.
Song Miqiu's face instantly scrunched up, but then he thought that since he had overheard a lot of things about Yu Huailin, it was normal for him to hear or see something.
She smiled and waved to Re Huailin. Song Miqiu asked in a low voice, "Would you like me to take you to see my father?"
Yu Huailin smiled in surprise and asked the other person, "Can I go with them too?"
"You're the first person besides them to see my face clearly. Anyway, you already know most of my secrets, so taking you along won't hurt." As she spoke, Song Miqiu shrugged, saying it nonchalantly.
Since the other party had said so, Yu Huailin felt that he would be missing out if he didn't go and take a look. He smiled and nodded, agreeing to her request.
Zhu Zhi looked at the two of them, turned to the side and invited them to come up with a smile, "Why don't you ride in my carriage together?"
Song Miqiu didn't refuse. Since the other party was his father's subordinate, it was just a matter of sharing a carriage.
The group quickly arrived at a secluded house. Zhu Zhi got out of the carriage first, smiled, looked at the carriage, and announced loudly, "We've arrived!"
Song Miqiu was the first to lift the curtain of the carriage window and look at the house. Seeing that the location was very remote, it was no wonder that Qingzhi had searched for so long but had not found his father's remains.
I suppose I found Zhu Zhi recently, and he told me about it.
Song Miqiu followed Zhu Zhi inside. She saw Qing Zhi there too, and excitedly raised her hand, waving it in Qing Zhi's direction, and called out, "You're here too!"
Hearing someone calling his name, Qingzhi turned around and saw that it was Song Miqiu. He smiled and raised his eyebrows.
When his gaze fell on the person behind Song Miqiu, Qing Zhi's smile slowly faded, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Yu Huailin with great vigilance. At the same time, he strode to Song Miqiu's side and asked in a low voice, "Why is Yu Huailin here too?"
Seeing that Yu Huailin was about to walk in, Qingzhi stepped in front of Yu Huailin and blocked his way before Song Miqiu could respond.
"You're not allowed in!"
Yu Huailin frowned. He looked at the other person coldly, "Was the person inside your father who died?"
"No!" Qingzhi didn't know why Yu Huailin asked this question, but he still responded to the other party with this sentence.
Upon hearing this, a hint of sarcasm flashed in Yu Huailin's eyes. "Since that's not the case, what right do you have to stop me from going in?"
These words left Qing Zhi speechless. He turned to look at Song Miqiu, who was still blocking Yu Huailin's way, and said, "Song Miqiu, we can't let him in. We need to be careful of Yu Huailin."
He had been unable to investigate Yu Huailin's background. To Qingzhi, Yu Huailin's background was highly suspicious. If he were to let him in, and their secrets were to be exposed, not only would their remains be lost, but Song Miqiu and the others would also be implicated!
Song Miqiu looked at the person in front of her awkwardly. She tried to soothe Qingzhi's emotions, "Yu Huailin won't do anything to harm us. Besides, he already saw it before. Seeing my father is nothing."
"Song Miqiu!" Qing Zhi looked at the other person with disappointment. He knew that Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin's relationship status had been slightly different recently, but the situation was different now.
"You yourself don't even know Yu Huailin's true background. What if he has ulterior motives and wipes us all out? Wouldn't we be finished?!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Huailin was so angry at Qing Zhi's words that he laughed. He looked up at the other man coldly, raised an eyebrow, and pointed at himself, "I have ulterior motives?"
"I don't think you're a good person either. You're always acting mysterious, trying to gain Song Miqiu's trust. Who knows, one day you might just betray Song Miqiu and take all his secrets with you!"
These words immediately angered Qingzhi.
This is the first time anyone has seriously doubted his loyalty; it's an insult to him!
Song Miqiu watched the two people on either side of her bickering and arguing. She stood in the middle, and the two tall people made her look extremely small.
She placed her hand on Yu Huailin's chest and softly urged him to calm down, but Yu Huailin did not respond. Helpless, Song Miqiu could only look at Qing Zhi.
However, Qingzhi was so angry with Yu Huailin that he didn't care about Song Miqiu's affairs at all, and he didn't even hear the other party shouting at him.
Seeing that neither of them paid any attention to her and they continued to argue fiercely, she gritted her teeth in anger, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down before shouting angrily, "Enough!"
A sudden voice startled Yu Huailin and Qing Zhi, who were arguing. They were completely taken aback and stood there dumbfounded, looking in Song Miqiu's direction.
Seeing that the other party was looking at them both very angrily, Yu Huailin lowered his head first.
Qing Zhiben wanted to say something more, but seeing Yu Huailin's expression, he obediently lowered his head and listened to Song Miqiu's reprimand.
"What are you two arguing about here? Do you think this is a vegetable market?! How old are you two? Can't you be a little more mature?"
"Besides, whose father is lying in here? He's mine! I haven't even said anything yet, what are you all talking about?!"
One reprimand after another silenced them so harshly that they dared not raise their heads.
