Chapter 212 -212: Strangers from Now on

Ye Chuyi looked at his hypocritical face, and the last vestige of childhood kinship in her heart vanished completely.

She wiped away her tears, her voice becoming cold, “You killed Tian Qiugui and Du Yu for the same reason, didn’t you?”

“No, I did not kill them, I’m innocent!”

“It was not because they were blackmailing you that you killed them, but rather because they knew a secret of yours. I’m quite curious now, what secret could it be, that you would rather take such a risk and kill two people in a row rather than let it be exposed.”

Shi Youjin’s pupils suddenly constricted, but then he put on a sorrowful expression and said, “Xiaoyi, do you also refuse to believe me? I really didn’t kill anyone!”

“No matter what this secret is, I will find it out.”

After saying that, Ye Chuyi turned around and left.

Shi Youjin’s face turned rather ugly, and he fiercely gripped the bars of the gate as if in the next second he might tear down that gate and rush out to stop Ye Chuyi.

Unfortunately, this gate was specifically designed to detain major suspects, unusually strong, and no matter how much strength he used, it wouldn’t budge.

Ye Chuyi had already left the police station and stood outside its main entrance.

She had just steadied herself when a figure hurried out of the police station, passing by her without even recognizing her.

Ye Chuyi spoke up indifferently, “Lin Yueqin, you’re in such a hurry to leave, where are you going?”

At the sound of her voice, Lin Yueqin abruptly stopped, whirling around: “You little beast, so you haven’t left yet?”

“Oh, I went to see Shi Youjin, which delayed me a bit. He has already killed two people; you should know the reason, shouldn’t you?”

“What does his killing have to do with me? I don’t know anything!”

Lin Yueqin glared at her menacingly, “And you, you even changed your surname behind my back! If the police hadn’t told me you’re now called Ye Chuyi, I wouldn’t have known you’re no longer a Lin! You little beast, who allowed you to change your surname?!”

“If I want to change it, I’ll change it. You’ve never treated me like a daughter anyway, why should I bear your name?”

“Even if you don’t want to bear my name, you should at least take Shi Youjin’s name! Who gave you permission to change to Ye? Do you think you deserve it? Daydreaming all the time, don’t think I don’t know what plans you’re harboring! Get this through your head, you will never be Lady Wen’s daughter in this life; even if you change to her surname, it’s useless!”

“Even if I dream I want to become Lady Wen’s daughter, so what, is that not allowed? No one would want to be your daughter, including Wen Nianyou, whom you raised as if she were your own flesh and blood. That’s how much of a failure you are. You can ask Wen Nianyou, if she gets a chance to be reborn, would she still choose Lady Wen, or would she choose you?”

Lin Yueqin was so blocked by her words that she couldn’t utter a reply for a moment, and her expression turned ghastly.

There was no need to ask; if Wen Nianyou had the choice, she would definitely choose Lady Wen and not Lin Yueqin.

Seeing that Lin Yueqin remained silent, Ye Chuyi felt a slight sense of satisfaction. Recalling that Lin Yueqin had also been swindled out of fifteen million, she asked lightly, “Where did you get so much money to give to Tian’s mother? Did Wen Nianyou give it to you?”

“Money? What money? I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“Fifteen million. That sum isn’t small change even for Wen Nianyou; why would she be willing to give you so much all at once?”

“She didn’t give me any money, I borrowed it from someone else!”

“Borrowed from whom?”

“Relatives and friends!”

“You’re lying.”

“You little beast, do you think everyone is like you, without a single friend? I have plenty of friends and a whole lot of relatives, unlike you, alone and friendless, with no one wanting to associate with you!”

“You do have quite a few relatives and friends, but where could you find wealthy ones? You and Shi Youjin’s relatives in your hometown are poorer than the other; they come to you for money every year, how could they possibly lend you any?”

“Why are you asking so much? What has it got to do with you? You’ve changed your surname, so don’t even think about having me recognize you as my daughter anymore!”

Ye Chuyi sneered, “Do you think I wanted to acknowledge you as my mother? Shi Youjin has killed twice, and you definitely knew about it, you may even have been an accomplice. You’ve lost all semblance of humanity. I feel ashamed to even have a mother like you. You’d better not recognize me as your daughter anymore; from now on, it would be better if we treated each other as strangers.”
