Chapter 988 Don't you want to know how your mother died?
Shen Qing also noticed that Yan Bei's expression towards that person was not pleasant.
His tone of voice was also unusual.
She knew that Yan Bei knew this person, but their relationship was probably not good.
She looked up and saw a man in a black suit, his hair slightly graying and combed back. He was about the same age as Yan Bei's father.
She had never seen him before and was unsure who he was.
Shen Qing tugged at Yan Bei's arm, "And who is this?"
“He’s the person I hate the most.” Yan Bei’s expression darkened, his tone slightly angry.
Yan Bei took a few steps forward, and Shen Qing followed beside him, linking her arm with his.
"What right do you have to come see my mother?" Yan Bei looked at the older man in front of her.
“Xiao Bei, I know you’ve resented me all these years. Your mother was heartbroken when she left me; I haven’t had a good night’s sleep since the day she left,” the older man said.
Shen Qing curled the corners of her lips. It seemed that the older man in front of her must have some kind of relationship with her mother-in-law.
"Would my mother have left if it weren't for you?"
"Xiao Bei, I didn't want it to be like this either. So many years have passed, can't you just let this go?"
"No," Yan Bei said firmly. "You killed my mother. I can never forgive you in this lifetime."
"I don't ask for your forgiveness. I don't want to argue with you here at your mother's grave, and I don't want your mother to see this. She likes peace and quiet."
"What my mother likes is none of your business. You are to leave right now and never come back here again."
The man looked directly at Yan Bei and said, "Xiao Bei, you were too young when your mother passed away, and there are some things you don't understand yet. You will understand in the future."
"I don't need to understand. If it weren't for you, my mother wouldn't have died." After saying that, Yan Bei looked at the man and shouted fiercely, "Get out!"
The older man had no choice but to leave.
Shen Qing bent down and gently placed the flowers in her hand in front of the tombstone.
"Grandma, Yan Bei and I have come to see you. Please take good care of yourself over there."
Then Yan Bei spoke up, "Mom, I'm late, I'm sorry."
Seeing Yan Bei silently staring at the tombstone in front of him, Shen Qing knew that he must be feeling very sad.
"Mom, I just saw Liu Shaohua. You must hate him too, right? I already warned him not to come see you again."
“I’m doing well here, so you don’t need to worry about me. I’m very happy with your daughter-in-law and grandchildren by my side.”
"Mom, I'll come see you again next year."
"..."
After accompanying Yan Bei to pay respects to his mother-in-law, Shen Qing turned and headed back.
After a moment, Shen Qing asked, "Who was that person just now?"
Yan Bei paused slightly. Turning to Shen Qing, he said, "He's my mother's childhood sweetheart, named Liu Shaohua. Before my mother married my father, she was already engaged to Liu Shaohua. But Liu Shaohua was a gambler and womanizer at the time, and when my mother found out, she married my father in a fit of anger!"
"Later, Liu Shaohua often came to see my mother. Knowing that my mother had married my father and her financial situation had improved, he borrowed money from my mother several times. But he never paid it back. Later, my father found out, and my mother wanted to go to Liu Shaohua to ask him to pay back the money. The day my mother died was the day she went to find Liu Shaohua to ask him to pay back the money. On the way, my mother was in a car accident."
After hearing this, Shen Qing curled the corners of her lips and said, "How dare Liu Shaohua borrow money from your mother?"
"What's there to be ashamed of for someone who has no shame?"
“Let’s go! Let’s not think about the past anymore. It’s all in the past. Your mother has been gone for so many years, and she wouldn’t want you to keep dwelling on this and letting it affect your mood.” Shen Qing took Yan Bei’s arm.
"Okay!" Yan Bei nodded, and then walked out of the cemetery with Shen Qing.
Outside the cemetery.
Liu Shaohua stood next to a black sedan.
Yan Bei saw him and initially didn't want to talk to him, so she walked around him.
Suddenly, Liu Shaohua spoke up, "Xiao Bei, let's have a chat!"
"I have nothing to talk to you about."
“You resent me for what happened to your mother, but why don’t you resent the driver who wasn’t driving properly and caused your mother’s accident? I’ve found the driver who killed your mother. He was acting under someone else’s orders. Don’t you want to know who it was?”
Yan Bei paused for a moment, then turned to look at Liu Shaohua.
"who is it?"
"Let's talk in private!"
……
In a nearby coffee shop.
Yan Bei and Liu Shaohua sat facing each other.
Liu Shaohua spoke first, "Xiao Bei, haven't you ever thought about why your mother suddenly got into a car accident? Do you just think it was because she came to me for money, and that I was the one who caused the accident?"
"Otherwise, would this have happened if you hadn't borrowed money from my mom?"
"Xiao Bei, the biggest culprit who caused your mother's death is your grandfather."
Yan Bei was stunned for a moment, "My grandfather?"
"That's right, it was your grandfather who hired someone to harm your mother."
Yan Bei frowned.
Liu Shaohua continued, "It's because your grandfather always looked down on your mother. Before, your maternal grandmother's family was very poor, and your mother helped your maternal grandmother's family and your uncle. Your grandfather couldn't stand it, so he asked your father to divorce your mother, but your father didn't. So your grandfather wanted to harm your mother. That car accident was caused by your grandfather hiring someone to hit your mother."
Yan Bei was incredulous after hearing this. "Didn't you say you knew the person Mom was talking about at noon? Tell me, I need to see him."
Okay! I'll tell you the address.
Liu Shaohua took out a piece of paper and a pen from his bag, wrote down the address, and handed it to Yan Bei.
Yan Bei's trembling hand grasped the note.
Then he stood up, turned around, and left.
Shen Qing was waiting for him in the car.
After Yan Bei got into the car, Shen Qing asked, "You finished talking to him so quickly?"
“I don’t have much to talk about with him. I just want to know what I want to know,” Yan Bei said.
What did he tell you?
Yan Bei paused for a few seconds before speaking, "He said... the one who really killed my mother was my grandfather."
"Your grandfather?"
Yan Bei nodded.
"Do you believe what he said?"
"I don't really believe it, but he gave me the address of the person who hit my mother back then. I'm going to find him now and ask him for the truth."
“Okay, I’ll go with you. Let’s go!” Shen Qing said.
Yan Bei started the car.
His eyes were fixed straight ahead, his large, well-defined hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. His expression was tense.
Shen Qing could tell that Yan Bei's thoughts must be very chaotic right now.
She didn't say much; she knew that all she could do at this moment was stay by Yan Bei's side.
Following the address given by Liu Shaohua, Yan Bei and Shen Qing arrived at their destination.
Yan Bei got out of the car.
Shen Qing rolled down the car window and looked at Yan Bei, "I'll go with you. After all, you don't know who the other person is, so it'll be safer for the two of us to go."
Yan Bei pursed her lips slightly, "Okay!"
Shen Qing got out of the car and followed Yan Bei into an alley.
The area is full of single-story houses, and you can only find the address on the note by walking through a series of alleys.
Without a second's hesitation, Yan Bei raised his hand and fanned the door.
The door was opened after a long time of knocking.
