Chapter 197

Fortunately, Xu Youran had the same habit as everyone else—writing dates for every diary entry.

Soon, Su Ziyue found her entries dated four years back.

Four years ago, Xu Youran had just transferred to their school when she framed Su Ziyue for abortion.

Therefore, Su Ziyue directly started reading from the days when she just got transferred.

However, she couldn’t remember the specific date when Xu Youran transferred to their school. But luckily, she roughly remembered the time frame.

Unexpectedly, Su Ziyue was attracted to a page with extremely messy writing when she randomly flipped through the pages

Xu Youran wrote in a regular small script on the previous pages, and her writing was neat. However, this page seemed different.

As she continued to read, her eyes stopped at two words—‘I’m pregnant’.

She was utterly shocked.

Four years ago. Pregnant. Xu Youran.

“Is this really Xu Youran’s diary?” Su Ziyue raised her head to ask Qin Muchen.

It was not that she didn’t believe Qin Muchen, but in her impression, Xu Youran didn’t seem like someone who would secretly mess around and have sex before marriage.

Qin Muchen didn’t reply to her and just hinted for her to continue reading. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

So, Su Ziyue bowed her head and continued reading.

After she put down the diary, she remained silent for quite a while.

“That’s what actually happened.” Qin Muchen suddenly spoke up and explained systematically, “That year, Xu Youran transferred to your school after she got pregnant. Then, Su Yige got hold of her secret and blackmailed her.”

All of that was mentioned in Xu Youran’s diary.

Xu Youran came from a poor family, but that didn’t stop a girl from falling in love during puberty.

In her diary, she said that she had been raised by her sister, and her sister had always hoped that she would be successful. When her sister found out that she was pregnant, she quickly arranged to transfer her to another school.

Undeniably, Xu Youran’s sister was a wise woman.

However, she shouldn’t have transferred Xu Youran to Su Ziyue’s high school, because she was targeted by Su Yige. In the end, Xu Youran, who should have been a top student, didn’t attend the

college entrance exam due to the unbearable psychological pressure from the guilt she felt and the constant blackmailing from Su Yige.

Although Su Ziyue couldn’t help sighing in her heart, she didn’t feel any other emotions.

It had been four years since that incident happened, and she only hated Xu Youran at the very beginning because she knew that it was all Su Yige’s plan.

“But why did Zhou Lingyu murder Xu Youran?” Su Ziyue couldn’t understand this point.

Qin Muchen leaned back, and his eyes looked profound. “At the hot spring back then, you didn’t just meet Xu Youran once.”

After a pause, Qin Muchen continued, “In the beginning, perhaps Zhou Lingyu didn’t intend to murder Xu Youran.”

Hearing Qin Muchen’s reminder, Su Ziyue suddenly saw the light.

She looked at Qin Muchen while speaking in an uncertain tone, “Zhou Lingyu was actually the mastermind behind that incident that year. Xu Youran’s abortion and that abortion certificate was actually provided by Zhou Lingyu. Therefore, when she met Xu Youran at the hot spring, she recognized her, and perhaps, Xu Youran wanted to tell me the truth of the past…”

Speaking about that, Su Ziyue lowered her head to look at the diary in her hands again.

Perhaps, Xu Youran not only wanted to tell her the truth, she also wanted to clear up any misunderstandings.

Because at the end of the diary, Xu Youran mentioned the classmate reunion.

On the last page, she had written, ‘I received the invitation for my high school classmates reunion. In the past, I was young and did wrong. Once a mistake is made, forever the mistake will continue on. If I attend the reunion, will I meet her? Even if she doesn’t attend, some mistakes shouldn’t be unremedied.’

Su Ziyue recalled the astonishment and happiness in Xu Youran’s eyes as well as her hesitation and reluctance to speak when she bumped into her back at the hot spring.

After circling back to square one, she seemed to still be entangled with Xu Youran’s death.

“Just because Xu Youran planned to clarify the incident with me, Zhou Lingyu went to seek her out. Even if Zhuo Lingyu didn’t intend to kill her in the beginning, I’m still related to this matter.”

Su Ziyue lowered her eyelids, looking desolate.

Qin Muchen glanced at her while his voice was as indifferent as usual. “Everything happens for a reason.”

Su Ziyue didn’t reply to him, and the study sank into silence.

After a while, Su Ziyue broke the silence. “Thank you. It’s getting late, so I should get going.”

Thank you?

Qin Muchen’s eyes were covered in dark mist while his voice became colder than before. “Su Ziyue, are you planning to live apart from me for the long term?”

Su Ziyue had never thought of living apart from him for the long term. The only thing she knew was that she refused to stay under the same roof with Qin Muchen now.

She could clearly sense Qin Muchen’s indifference and coldness during this period of time. With that attitude, she just didn’t know how to stay with Qin Muchen in the same house.

Perhaps his initial impression was too deeply rooted in her mind, so the current Qin Muchen always frightened her without her realizing.

Since Su Ziyue didn’t say anything, Qin Muchen just took it as her silently admitting it. Knitting his eyebrows, he recalled the man that had brought her away from Lumiere Jade House yesterday and her house that was broken in by thieves. As the flame of rage couldn’t be put out in his heart, his words became even more harsh.

“Thank me? You know that I don’t accept words of gratitude, and I’m sure you know how you can thank me.”

Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue’s face turned pale at once.

She understood his underlying meaning.

Noticing that her face became pale, Qin Muchen’s heart wrenched.

He regretted it too after that, but he was too angry at that moment to the point that he had lost his

senses.

In his life, no matter how strong his opponents were, he had never been defeated. But facing her, he was completely defeated.

He wasn’t sure if he was angry at himself or her.

He wasn’t a gentle person in nature. Only he knew how many disgraceful things he had done to get to where he was today.

Therefore, when he couldn’t control his emotions, he would lose control and do things that would hurt her.

He was angry and upset. He also wanted to ask why wouldn’t she bear a child for him, but he was afraid that her answer wouldn’t be the one he hoped to hear.

Thinking of that, he felt rather ridiculous. After all, he had never feared anything in the past.

“I…”

Upon hearing her voice, Qin Muchen was afraid that she would agree. At the same time, he was also afraid that she would reject him.

Therefore, he cut her off without showing any expression. “You can sleep in the guest room.”

With that, he got up and left.

Su Ziyue hastily turned back to look at him, only to see his figure vanish after he slammed the door. It seemed like he was enraged again.

She really couldn’t understand what he was thinking.

After what had happened yesterday, she no longer intended to try to talk to him.

She had lost her courage.

After all, he could just watch as she got beaten up by another man. If she swallowed her pride and proactively went to talk to him again, it would be no different than humiliating herself.

Su Ziyue spent a night in the guest room, but she had a peaceful sleep.

The next morning, she woke up and washed up. When she went downstairs, she couldn’t find Qin Muchen, so she went directly to the office.
