Chapter 1407: Zhou Cheng’s Identity (4)

Qiao Mu and Li Yan went outside the hotel for dinner. During dinner, Qiao Mu’s state was completely different from before she went to bed. She was extremely relaxed, chatting and laughing, and did not mention the matter in Zhoucheng again.

Li Yan looked at her helplessly and pinched her cheeks. ” Silly girl, you don’t have to act tough in front of me. You don’t have to force a smile when you’re unhappy. ”

“I didn’t!” Qiao Mu stubbornly refused to admit it.

“Is there anything I don’t understand about you? I can tell what you’re plotting with just a look. Why are you still pretending?”

The smile on Qiao Mu’s face stiffened, and she tugged at the corners of her lips. ” You saw through me? I just don’t want you to worry about me. ”

He glared at her. ” I’m not only worried about you, but I’m also angry. ”

Qiao Mu lowered her head. ” I know I was wrong, but I really don’t know how to face this matter. ”

“Mu Mu, don’t think too badly of the situation. Zhou Cheng and Shu Xinyu are not the same kind of people. I’ve investigated and found out that Zhou Cheng has been doing charity all his life. He has a good reputation in the local area and is a low-key person. He’s not someone who uses charity to disguise himself. We don’t know what happened between Zhou Cheng and Shu Xinyu back then. From what I see, with Zhou Cheng’s character, if he knew that Shu Xinyu was pregnant, he probably wouldn’t abandon Shu Xinyu and go abroad.”

Qiao Mu thought about it and looked at Li Yan. ” Uncle, can we push back our schedule by a few days? ” I want to stay here for a few more days.”

“Alright.” Li Yan did not ask further and answered readily.

Qiao Mu was still unwilling to accept this. She would regret leaving like this before things were cleared up.
