The poor husband I picked up turned out to be from a wealthy family

Chapter 989 Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Who are you looking for?" the man asked rudely.

"Do you live here alone?"

"Yes."

“Then I’m here to see you,” Yan Bei said.

"Looking for me? I don't know you at all. Are you sure you have the right person?"

Yan Bei curled the corners of his lips. "I think I've come to the right place. Let me introduce myself. My surname is Yan!"

"Yan!" The man seemed to have an unusual reaction when he heard the word "Yan".

"You are... a member of the Yan family?"

Yan Bei noticed the man's reaction. "Do you know anyone in the Yan family?"

"I don't know him." The man's eyes darted away.

Yan Bei lifted her eyelids. "Would it be convenient for us to come in and talk?"

"It's inconvenient, I have other things to do, please leave!" the man said.

Just as the man was about to close the door, Yan Bei blocked it with a large hand.

"I'm just asking you some questions."

"Don't ask me, I don't know anything."

At this moment, Shen Qing spoke up, "I won't let you talk for nothing." As she spoke, Shen Qing took out a wad of cash from her bag, "Here is 10,000 yuan. If you agree to let us in, this money is yours."

The man hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and let Yan Bei and Shen Qing in.

Yan Bei curled the corners of his lips. "You should know what we want to ask you."

The man lifted his eyelids and looked at Yan Bei. "Is it about the car accident more than ten years ago?"

"Yes."

“I did cause that car accident, but I was instructed by someone. He gave me money, and I needed the money to treat my mother’s illness at the time. So I acted impulsively and did this.”

"Do you know who ordered you to do this?"

"The Yan family, Yan Zhongtian."

Yan Bei was startled; Yan Zhongtian was his grandfather's name.

It seems Liu Shaohua was right; her mother's car accident was indeed related to her grandfather.

The man continued, "If I could do it all over again, I would never do such a thing. I've regretted it for the rest of my life."

Yan Bei's eyes were a little moist.

“If you hadn’t done this, my mother wouldn’t have died.”

The man paused for a moment, "That person is your mother?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Why haven't you come to see me? Because many people have come to me about this."

"Who else has come looking for you?" Yan Bei asked, puzzled.

"And your father, your uncle, and a Mr. Liu?"

"Liu Shaohua?"

"Yes, it's him."

Yan Bei clenched his fists. "It seems I'm the last one to find out about this."

Shen Qing walked to Yan Bei's side and helped him up.

Yan Bei said, "They all know, so why didn't anyone tell me?"

"Alright, they have their reasons for not telling you."

"That was my own mother. Don't I have the right to know how she died?"

"Let's go!" Shen Qing said.

Yan Bei nodded slightly, then left with Shen Qing.

Sitting in the car, Yan Bei remained silent for a long time.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Shen Qing comforted her, "I know you're feeling terrible right now. But you also have to accept reality. Your mother is gone. And it's been many years. Even the person who caused this is no longer alive, so you have to learn to let go."

"How can I let go of this? My grandfather hired someone to run over my mother and kill her. Is there anyone more heartbroken than me? I lost my mother when I was young, and without maternal love, my life has changed drastically. Who knows or understands the loneliness I feel?"

Yan Bei paused and then looked at Shen Qing, "I'm sorry, wife, I lost control just now."

"It's okay, I understand how you feel right now."

Yan Bei breathed a sigh of relief.

"Honey, let me take you home!"

"Where are you going?" Shen Qing asked.

"I'm going to find my dad!"

"I hope you can talk to him nicely when you get there; he's getting old after all."

Yan Bei curled his lips, "I understand."

……

After taking Shen Qing home, Yan Bei went to Yan Jiangshan's place.

Knocked on the door.

He stood at the door with an angry expression.

Aunt Yang, who opened the door, said, "Xiao Bei is here," but he didn't respond.

He walked straight into the living room.

Aunt Yang noticed that Yan Bei's expression was off, so she asked, "Xiao Bei, what's wrong with you?"

"Where's my dad!"

"Your dad is in the study!"

Yan Bei strode directly towards the study.

Push open the study door.

Yan Jiangshan looked up at him, "Xiao Bei is here."

Yan Bei did not respond; he walked towards Yan Jiangshan.

"Xiao Bei, what's wrong? You don't look well."

"I'm asking you, how did my mother die?"

Yan Jiangshan paused for a moment, then said, "Xiao Bei, this happened so many years ago, why are you still asking about it?"

"I'm asking how my mother died?"

"You know perfectly well that your mother died in a car accident."

"How could she have been in a car accident?"

"Well... how would I know? I heard the person who hit your mom's car was drunk. That's why the accident happened."

"is it?"

Gu Changyuan's dark eyes looked at Yan Jiangshan.

"Xiao Bei, why are you looking at me like that? Don't you believe this?"

"That's right, I just don't believe what you're saying now."

"Xiao Bei, would I lie to you? I was heartbroken when your mother passed away! But the dead can't come back. Besides, so many years have passed, why are you bringing this up again?"

"Because my mother's death was not an accident, but a deliberate setup."

"Xiao Bei, how is this possible? Who would be so bold as to frame your mother?"

"You should know better than me who dared to be so bold."

"Xiao Bei, what are you saying? How would I know? I've never even seen the person who hit your mother. I was just too heartbroken at the time, so I dealt with your mother's matter hastily."

Yan Bei curled the corner of his lips. "Do you think I believe what you're saying now?"

“Xiao Bei, what’s wrong with you today? If we have to say who caused this accident, it’s Liu Shaohua. If he hadn’t borrowed money from your mother, this wouldn’t have happened on your mother’s way to ask for the money back.”

“It’s true that my mom went to ask Liu Shaohua for money, but that car that suddenly appeared on the road was wrong. That car deliberately hit my mom,” Yan Bei said.

"Xiao Bei, I don't understand what you're talking about. Those things from back then have already been dealt with. Why are you bringing them up again? Are you missing your mother? Yesterday was the anniversary of your mother's death, why didn't you go to see her?"

"And the culprit who caused my mother's accident was my grandfather, right?"

"Xiaobei, you..."

"Am I right?"
