Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend Chapter 688 688 The Truth of the Matter

Thump... Chen ngying's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She stepped back slightly and stared blankly at her mother.

It's not that Mrs. Chen doubted Xiaofan's character. As a desolate and pitiful woman, her entire focus was on her daughter; she didn't want Chen ngying to suffer even the slightest harm. Despite her lack of ability, she couldn't beco a burden to her daughter, never...

"Speak up? Why aren't you speaking? Could it be that you've beco soone's mistress?" Mrs. Chen's heart trembled as she spoke. How afraid she was that her suspicions were wrong. But, with her daughter's expression so strange, her guesses were probably right.

"Mom, Xiaofan is not like that, absolutely not. Haven't you known him well since middle school?" Chen ngying had no intention of giving in and continued to persuade her mother.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen was montarily stunned. The teenage boy, with such a cheerful smile and such pure eyes; even to this day, she believed she had not misjudged Xiaofan's character. But... she was worried, scared...

"I thought I understood your father back then too. But what happened? People change, especially n..." Mrs. Chen was almost losing control. "No, I need to call Xiaofan to find out."

"Mom, what are you doing? He's busy now."

"Fine, then tell ."

"I... I didn't."

"Do you know that whenever you lie to since you were young, you couldn't look in the eyes. So, it really happened?"

"No, it's not..."

"I can't live in this house. Even if I'm down-and-out, I can't let my daughter do such degrading things. Even if I have to sleep on the street, under a bridge, I won't let it happen..."

"Mom, please don't be like this..."

"ng Ying, I know everything is my fault for not giving you a happy and stable ho. But, how did I raise you from childhood? Have you forgotten everything? We can no longer accept Xiaofan's kindness, and you must sever that kind of relationship with him. Leave, let's go now..."

"You've really got it wrong, it's not like that at all. Xiaofan truly hasn't asked anything of ."

"Then you've been with him? Don't deceive , ng Ying. We're poor, but we have dignity, don't we..."

"I said, I'll tell you everything. Actually, Xiaofan has no idea about the night we were together. Really, I'm not lying..." At this mont, Chen ngying couldn't hold back her tears, surging out wildly.

A trembling body almost couldn't stand straight; this long-hidden past in her heart had to co to light.

"Not aware? What exactly happened?" Seeing her daughter's near breakdown, Mrs. Chen's heart softened. "Darling, don't cry, tell properly, what exactly happened?"

"Mom, Xiaofan is a good person. The story starts before graduation from high school, back then..."

Shen Zuimo's identity was not revealed by Chen ngying; she only ntioned that Xiaofan did sothing very dangerous and then fell in love with that woman.

Because they couldn't be together, Xiaofan often drowned his sorrows in the bar; on that night, he got drunk again, calling the girl's na repeatedly.

"At that ti, when he grabbed my hand and called Shen Zuimo's na, I had a chance to leave, even up until the end I had the chance to leave. But I don't know why, I stayed. The next morning, before he woke up, I left the room. Until today, he's completely unaware of what happened that night. Mom, don't bla him, if you're going to scold anyone, scold . It's all my fault; if I hadn't thought irrationally and left earlier, none of this would have happened. But, Mom, I don't regret it."

"Then why don't you tell Xiaofan the truth?"

The mother and daughter's embrace deepened as they cried while recounting the past. Mrs. Chen knew her daughter well; these words weren't fabricated by her.

"I can't speak out..."

"Why can't you?"

"You know Xiaofan's character too, right? If I tell him, he'd definitely take responsibility for . But then his life, his pursuit wouldn't be perfect. His heart still loves another, right? Even if we reluctantly stayed together, we'd both be unhappy, wouldn't we? So why not let it be as if nothing happened, let the matter fade away, and everything return to normal."

"But, it's hard for you, silly child." Stroking her daughter's hair, Mrs. Chen felt heartbroken.

"I'm not suffering. He's Ye Xiaofan, the Ye Xiaofan we are all familiar with. So I'm willing, so mom, please don't tell him, I beg you. Let all this sink into the sea. Let him continue to soar freely."

"You... sigh. How did I end up with such a silly daughter? If things are as you say, then indeed I wrongly blad Xiaofan earlier, sigh, what a situation this is."

Mrs. Chen was completely at a loss. She didn't want her daughter to suffer, but she couldn't force Xiaofan to take responsibility for her daughter either. Just as her daughter said, if they were together reluctantly, they wouldn't be happy.

anwhile, Chen ngying noticed her mother's emotions were gradually stabilizing, and continued to work on her mother's mindset, hoping to draw a line and never bring it up again.

At this mont, Xiaofan was on his way to et with Fei, completely unaware that the old class leader and aunt were at ho crying together.

"Xiaofan..."

"Thanks for the hard work, bro... everyone, I'm sorry for the trouble."

"If you keep saying such polite words, I'll really beat you up."

"Alright, rember next ti. Our country is naturally polite."

"That's for you scholars. I didn't go to school, just say whatever with brothers..."

"Eh, eh, eh, I get it, I really get it this ti. Well, tell , what did you find?"

"Chen Xinglong, male, looks over fifty but is actually only forty-three. Look, his identity card copy. That woman isn't from H City, but the hotel checked her identity card from Macau, not verified."

"Where are they now?"

"Look, go straight ahead for 80 ters, turn into an alley, there's an underground casino inside. Just went in there, man, it's bigger than mine. I've already notified Brother Xiong, once we've confird this underground casino has no backing, we're ready to take it down."

"Why bother putting so many people in action just for a casino?"

"Hmm? You have an idea?"

"Did you forget? I always win when I gamble."

"Hahaha, yeah, how could I forget that, everybody, we're in for a treat tonight, let's go in and play a few rounds, I promise you can make a fortune, hehe." Fei laughed heartily and imdiately led the way, taking Xiaofan into the casino.
