Chapter 460: The little things between Master Shi and Young Mistress Su

Shi Qingli furrowed his brow, his face full of confusion. He leaned forward half a step, his gaze darting between Chen Yan and Su Linyue, his tone urgent: "Lord Chen Yan, what do you mean by this?"

What relationship could they have, and how could it be linked to a murder case?

He really couldn't figure out how this case of murdering for property could suddenly involve the relationship between these two.

Shi Qingzhao beside him also nodded repeatedly, his brow knotted, echoing the question: "And what does this have to do with the two of them?"

"The connection is huge!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan smacked his lips lightly, the amusement in his eyes deepening, and he laughed.

Immediately, he turned his gaze toward Su Linyue, who was pinned to the ground, his tone dragging slightly, asking pointedly: "Right?"

Su Linyue trembled all over, her head buried even lower, even her breathing becoming cautious, cold sweat on her forehead sliding down her cheeks, biting her lower lip tightly.

Not until she tasted the bloody flavor in her mouth did she manage to keep herself from making a sound, but the panic in her eyes could not be hidden.

That was the fear of having one's most secret thoughts poked.

"No!"

She screamed frantically in her heart, her heart feeling as if it were gripped by an invisible hand, almost jumping out of her chest. "He... how does he know?!"

With this look and this tone, this guy surnamed Chen probably knows everything clearly...

Shi Xiuyun glanced sideways at Su Linyue, who was shaking like chaff beside him, the resentment in his eyes almost overflowing.

Immediately, he turned to look at Chen Yan, his face devoid of the previous madness and unwillingness, instead revealing a hint of complexity, carrying a hint of undisguised admiration, and he sighed hoarsely: "Lord Chen Yan, indeed nothing can be hidden from you!"

Chen Yan nodded frankly, his fingertips flicking lightly at the non-existent dust on his brocade robe, his tone carrying a hint of "it goes without saying": "Of course!"

As he spoke, he shrugged slightly, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes, and he sighed: "This family matter of yours is not just ordinarily interesting!"

To be honest, since coming to the Great Zhou, Chen hadn't eaten such a high-quality "melon" for a long time...

Shi Qingli stood where he was, his brow knotted into a dead knot, looking at the three people on the ground with different expressions, and then looking at Chen Yan, his eyes full of confusion and urgency, unable to help but step forward to pursue the question: "My lord, what exactly is going on?"

He couldn't quite understand what these two were playing at with their riddles...

Chen Yan did not answer immediately, but walked slowly to Su Linyue, leaned down, and used his fingertips to gently lift her chin, forcing her to look up.

The light shone on Su Linyue's pale face, and one could clearly see the fear and panic in her eyes.

After Chen Yan appreciated it with great interest, he smacked his lips, then laughed out loud, teasing: "It's just that these two are having an affair!"

A wonderful family ethics drama!

Shouldn't this be on the front page of the Haijiao headlines?

"How is this possible?!"

Shi Qingli and Shi Qingzhao froze in place instantly, their faces full of shock, their mouths open wide enough to fit a fist.

These two got together???

Chen Yan's fingertips had just moved away from Su Linyue's chin when she slumped back to the ground as if drained of strength, her chest heaving violently, her face as white as a thin sheet of paper.

Hearing her affair exposed in public, she couldn't stop trembling all over, yet she still tried her best to roar in defense: "No!"

"Not true!"

"I didn't!"

Immediately, she twisted her bound wrists desperately, her fingernails scratching messy marks into the blue bricks, tears mixed with cold sweat flowing down, trying to use crying to cover up her guilty conscience: "You are slandering me! I am the young mistress properly married into the Shi family, how could I do such a thing that ruins the family style! You are trying to frame me on purpose!"

"Cheap woman, you still have the nerve to deny it?" Shi Xiuyun's cold snort suddenly sounded, filled with disgust and hatred.

He raised his head abruptly, staring fixedly at Su Linyue, gritting his teeth, and cursed sternly: "The house in Jing'an Ward, wasn't it specifically purchased for you, you cheap hoof, to do some improper things?"

Ever since the dog-man and woman got together, even if he, the husband, was at home, she would find all sorts of excuses to go out for secret meetings...

Su Linyue stiffened all over, the struggling movement suddenly stopping, as if nailed to the spot. She slowly raised her head, and under her disheveled hair, a pair of bloodshot eyes stared fixedly at Shi Xiuyun, her gaze full of incredulous astonishment, her voice trembling beyond recognition: "You... how did you know?!"

It was clearly so secretive every time!

She went by taking remote paths, avoiding all acquaintances!

Shi Qingzhao froze in place for a long time, and only after a long while did he finally recover, his face full of shock and disbelief, his lips moving, his voice as light as if talking to himself: "Big Brother even... even... doesn't...?!"

He really couldn't connect the seemingly steady Big Brother in his memory with such sordid things, his brow knotted so tightly it could crush stones, and he muttered again: "What is Big Brother doing?!!"

Between the lines, it was full of heartache and confusion.

The confusion in his eyes was even greater than before.

Originally thought it was just a simple murder for property, but didn't expect it to involve such unbearable family ugliness.

And, there are plenty of women in this world, why eat the grass by the nest?

Shi Xiuyun stared fixedly at Su Linyue, laughing coldly, roaring hysterically: "If you want people not to know, you must not do it yourself!"

"Do you really think everyone is a blind fool who can be fooled at will!"

His chest heaved violently, his body pinned to the ground still struggling uncontrollably, as if wanting to break free from the restraints and pounce on Su Linyue, and finally he gritted his teeth and spat out two words: "Cheap goods!"

The resentment in that voice made one's spine chill.

"Don't be so excited!"

Chen Yan, not fearing the chaos, raised his hand and pressed it, his tone carrying a hint of playful, well-intentioned comfort: "If you want life to be passable, you must always have a little green on your head!"

Don't say it, really don't say it, it's been a long time since I've seen such a thorough green grassland, it's really interesting as always!

Gao Jiong, standing on the side, had a hint of complex sympathy flash in his eyes, unable to help but mutter in his heart: "This Shi Xiuyun is also miserable enough..."

Not only was he cuckolded, but it was by...

He is also a pitiful person!

Shi Xiuyun seemed to have remembered something, the corners of his mouth curling into an extremely cold smile, that smile hiding a hint of cruel amusement. He stared at Su Linyue and spoke slowly: "By the way, cheap woman, do you know why you don't have children?"

Su Linyue's heart skipped a beat, as if gripped tightly by something, her voice trembling uncontrollably, subconsciously asking back: "Why... why?"

She wasn't unable to conceive; she had conceived several times before, the longest for three months, but eventually miscarried...

As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized something, her pupils contracting sharply, her face instantly turning as pale as paper, and she asked in shock: "It couldn't be....?!"

"That's right!"

"It was my handiwork!"

"And it could only be my handiwork!"

Shi Xiuyun laughed even more ferociously, the corners of his eyes and brows revealing twisted triumph, his body pinned to the ground trembling slightly from excitement, his voice filled with the ruthlessness of success.

He stared fixedly at Su Linyue's pale face, as if wanting to pour out all the humiliation of these years, every word laced with poison: "You still wanted to give birth to that evil spawn!"

Trying to weld the shame onto his head?

How could he let her give birth to it?

"Shi Xiuyun, I'll fight you to the death!"

Su Linyue's heart felt as if it had been carved by a knife, instantly breaking down, her eyes blood-red, tears mixed with hatred rolling down, her body pinned to the ground erupting with astonishing strength, twisting and struggling frantically, a beast-like roar coming from her throat: "Return my child's life!"

She tried desperately to pounce on the murderer of her child, her fingernails scratching bloody marks into the blue bricks.

But the bailiffs were prepared, their arms pinning her down like iron pincers.

No matter how she struggled, they remained motionless.

With nowhere to vent her extreme pain and anger, Su Linyue could only slump to the ground, letting out a heart-rending wail: "Ah ah ah ah!"

Chen Yan stood on the side with his arms crossed, watching this chaotic scene, his eyes full of interest, unable to help but sigh in his heart: "Tonight was really not a wasted trip!"

"What a great show!"

He tapped his arm with his fingertips, very satisfied with the direction of this "farce."

This drama, mixed with affairs, conspiracies, and murder, if filmed in the new era, would definitely be a huge hit.

Shi Qingli took several deep breaths, finally managing to suppress the shock and anger in his heart. He walked forward two steps, his gaze falling on Shi Xiuyun, his tone carrying painful severity: "Even if Big Brother was hot-headed for a moment and committed some wrongdoings, that is not the reason for your rebellious behavior!"

Just because of a woman, to make such a scene?

"He wanted my life..."

Shi Xiuyun glanced sideways at Shi Qingli, the corners of his mouth curling into a mocking cold smile, his tone becoming even more ruthless: "Is it not allowed for me to strike first to gain the advantage!"

Others could be forgotten, but he wanted his life, so he couldn't just wait for death, could he?

"Fart!" Shi Qingli was full of anger, the roar escaping his mouth: "Even a tiger doesn't eat its cubs, let alone a human!"

Chen Yan suddenly raised his hand and spoke out of the blue: "Actually, Young Master Shi didn't lie..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the room instantly quieted down.

Shi Qingli froze abruptly, the anger on his face stiffening, looking at Chen Yan full of confusion, asking: "My lord, what do you mean by this?"

Could it be that this gentleman knows some inside story...

Chen Yan smiled half-heartedly, his gaze falling on Shi Xiuyun on the ground, his fingertips pointing lightly, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalance, yet every word exploded like a thunderbolt in everyone's ears: "After all, he is not Master Shi's biological son!"

"Of course he killed him without any scruples..." ===== CHAPTER 461 =====
