Chapter 1696 - Marry Me, Please? (Part Twenty-six) (1/2)

Qian Yikun paused. “Isn’t he your G.o.dfather?”

“That’s what I’m saying. A woman like me can even kill her father. Why would I be afraid of killing an outsider?” Mo Fei teased in a self-deprecating manner.

Qian Yikun’s expression changed slightly as he added in a low voice, “I’m serious. This matter is very important.”

“He’s really dead.” Mo Fei leaned against the bed frame. A dimness enshrouded her eyes. It felt like she could only confirm that she was still a living person every time this happened.

It was because those memories could tear her apart.

When Qian Yikun saw Mo Fei’s slight change in her expression and the self-mockery on her face, he felt as if someone had ruthlessly s.n.a.t.c.hed the deepest part of his heart. His heart ached.

“Why do you ask?” Mo Fei recollected her thoughts and her muddled gaze s.h.i.+fted to land on Qian Yikun instead.

Qian Yikun reached out and held Mo Fei’s hand, warming her cold hands. “Ye Cong isn’t close to his father, so it’s unlikely that he’s chasing after you for his father’s sake. There’s one thing, though. Most of Ye Cong’s business in taking in a.s.sa.s.sins for the past few years is related to you.”

“…” Mo Fei did not know what to say.

Befuddlement covered Mo Fei’s entire face. She had no idea what Qian Yikun meant.

Suddenly, she recalled how Ye Cong kept asking her about Mo Tian. “Do you mean that Ye Cong is still looking for Mo Tian and he thinks Mo Tian isn’t dead?”

“He’s really not dead.”

“Impossible.” Mo Fei suddenly stood up, her entire body filled with unprecedented agitation. “Qian Yikun, you don’t believe me, right? I killed him. How could I remember that wrongly?”

Qian Yikun sat on the stool and looked at the agitated Mo Fei. When she was almost done, Qian Yikun looked at her as she returned to her seat. “If you want Ye Cong to let you off, you have to find Mo Tian. Unfortunately, I coincidentally found out that Mo Tian was very close to Cheng Jie.”
