Unexpectedly, Mu Qian didn't seem too surprised after hearing the news.

On the contrary, her eyes were a little uncommon.

After a moment of quietness, Mu Qian asked again: "Is Lu Yuan's mother still here?"

Meng Linsheng said slowly: "As far as I know, she should have been gone long ago."

After hearing this, Mu Qian just smiled and nodded.

Regarding this, she had long thought that if Lu Yuan's mother was still there, how could Lu Yuan say what he said about his parents' marriage relationship when he came to her?

"Thank you, Mr. Meng." Mu Qian quickly stood up, "Sorry, I've bothered you today."

Meng Linsheng vaguely noticed something, but did not ask much, but just stood up slowly, "About Sheng Lin, if you have anything else to know, I can check it for you."

"No need." Mu Qian said, "I will check what I want to know myself. Thank you."

She thanked her repeatedly, and Meng Linsheng stopped asking anything. After a faint smile, she sent Mu Qian out.

As soon as Mu Qian left Meng Linsheng's company, he immediately called Rong Heng.

"Can you help me check someone's information?" Mu Qian asked straight to the point.

Rong Heng's voice was inexplicably alert, "Who?"

"Lu Yuan's biological mother, named Sheng Lin, has passed away." Mu Qian said.

After hearing this, Rong Heng suddenly exhaled: "Who is this? Is it that important?"

Mu Qian suddenly realized something, "What does it mean?"

Rong Heng paused and said again: "Didn't you couple communicate with each other? I just sent this information about Sheng Lin to my second brother."

Mu Qian couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this.

Huo Jinxi actually started checking Shenglin one step earlier than her. In other words, what did Huo Jinxi notice?

He was a bystander and his thoughts should be clearer than hers. So, when she was extremely confused, he took the idea for him and sent the jasmine picture to Rong Qingzi; and before she could wake up, he had already started to check the matter.

Mu Qian originally just looked at these things with the feeling of finding out the truth, but at this moment, when she learned that Huo Jinxi was also checking Shenglin, there seemed to be a hole in a corner of her heart, and the inexplicable hollowness and loss spread endlessly from that hole.

...

On this day, Huo Jinxi went out for a meeting and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon when he returned to the company.

As soon as he arrived at the office, Zhuang Yan quickly came forward, "Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo is here and is waiting for you in the office."

Upon hearing this, Huo Jinxi asked, "How long have you been here?"

Zhuang Yan pursed her lips, looked at the time before answering again: "It's almost two hours."

Huo Jinxi's eyes faintly darkened.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan hurriedly said, "Why don't you call me and say?"

Zhuang Yan hurriedly said, "It was Mrs. Huo who told me not to disturb Mr. Huo's work. She said she had nothing else to do and could wait..."

Huo Jinxi did not wait for her to finish speaking and walked into the office directly.

Pushing open the door, Mu Qian was sitting in his office chair, looking bored, and tilting her head, with a freshly blown bubble gum in her mouth.

Hearing the sound, Mu Qian lowered her eyes and saw him, and immediately blew the bubbles in her mouth wider.

Huo Jinxi came over after closing the door, and she blew the bubbles and muddled her mouth.

Even so, she still sat there quietly, motionless.

Huo Jinxi stepped forward, reached out and picked her up from the chair, then sat down by himself, and placed her on his lap.

After being forced to move his body for a while, Mu Qian seemed to have a little strength, raised her hand and took a tissue to tidy up the bubble gum on her mouth.

"When I came to the company, I met Manager Jia who asked for leave to take his son to see a doctor. His son gave me a piece of bubble gum." Mu Qian said while wiping his mouth, "It's been a long time since I ate it, it's quite interesting."

Huo Jinxi did not express his opinion, just sat quietly and watched her.

After Mu Qian finished tidying up herself and threw away the tissue in her hand, she turned to look at him again and smiled slightly, "Okay, let's talk about Sheng Lin now."

Huo Jinxi had long guessed the purpose of her coming to find him, so he didn't react much at this moment. After a moment of silence, he reached out and clasped Mu Qian's hand tightly.

Her hands were a little cold, so Huo Jinxi covered her hands and rubbed them gently for a few times.

Until Mu Qian held him with her backhand, she could hardly wait to speak: "Speak quickly!"

Huo Jinxi then spoke slowly: "Sheng Lin, from Tongcheng, was born in Qing'an Town in 1970."

Mu Qian originally planned to listen to him quietly, but as soon as she heard "Qing'an Town", she couldn't help but be stunned.

Qing'an Town is also the place where Mu Huaian was born.

"In 1990, she was named Lu and Chuan and gave birth to Lu Yuan. One month later, Lu and Chuan and Cheng Huiru married. Five months later, Lu and Chuan took Lu Yuan back to the Lu family, but Sheng Lin disappeared."

After hearing this, Mu Qian suddenly smiled bitterly.

This is probably a stupid woman, pregnant, but the man around her is preparing for a wedding with another woman. When she gave birth to a daughter, the man happened to marry another woman - maybe she didn't even know anything about this marriage, and it was not until half a year later that she suddenly realized.

"Until the winter of 1992, she died of liver disease in Huai City."

Mu Qian's eyes suddenly condensed, "In 1992, Huai City?"

After she slowly repeated this time and place, she suddenly chuckled.

In 1992, the year she was born was no big deal.

But it was Huai City.

Huai City is the city where Mu Huaian and Rong Qingzi settled after elopement. They lived in that city for more than ten years. It was not until she was ten years old that Mu Huaian passed away. Rong Qingzi took her back to Tongcheng and threw her into the Huo family, and went to the United States alone.

Mu Qian shouldn't have laughed, but for some reason, she just couldn't help it.

The place where Sheng Lin went after her disappearance and where she died of illness was Huai City.

And she and Sheng Lin's daughter have extremely similar eyes.

This made her guess the reason?

Seeing her smiling and falling silent, Huo Jinxi didn't say anything for a moment, but just looked at her quietly.

I met Lu Yuan and noticed Lu Yuan because of her eyes.

He thought of Mu Qian from Lu Yuan's eyes, but never thought of anything else.

But today, the information about Sheng Lin was placed in front of him, which forced him to think more.

After laughing, Mu Qian suddenly sighed, then looked at him and said, "By the way, you probably don't know that jasmine flower was painted by my father for Sheng Lin. So, based on the above information, from the perspective of your bystander, with your calmness and rationality of Huo Jinxi, what do you think the whole thing is like?"
