Chapter 682: 682, Emotions, tirelessly ruin people, deeply harm people.
“Li Wei felt abandoned, she was full of resentment, yet she also loved your brother, so she didn’t want him to leave, to be gone from her forever. Therefore, she intentionally made your brother aware of the money laundering occurring within the company. Originally, she merely wanted to prevent your brother from going to America, but…”
As he said all these, he was constantly observing Song Qinghuan’s emotional responses.
Upon seeing her expression remaining calm and not overly agitated, he continued, “What she did not anticipate was that those people would actually murder to silence others, causing your brother to disappear. It was too late for regret. After your brother left, she was devastated, blamed herself, and was wracked with guilt. She refused to accept that your brother was dead, promising to wait for him forever, which is why she has stayed in the company and refused to leave.”
Shi Yuhuan’s words caused Song Qinghuan to feel a soft pain, an undertone of sourness, and a whisper of helplessness.
The word “love” always destroyed persistently, harmed deeply…
However, besides this, Song Qinghuan also felt a sense of melancholy. She thought about the time she was almost framed for murder.
She gave it some thought, and then asked Shi Yuhuan, “Then afterward, when Li Wei claimed to have found Li Xiaoyi in a small town and took me along to investigate, was this actually a premeditated setup? Otherwise, how could things happen so coincidentally? And she wouldn’t have confessed to the murder later. You knew about this, didn’t you?”
Shi Yuhuan ran his fingers through her hair. It was a while before he said, “Your thinking has become shrewd. I was hesitating about whether to tell you now, fearing it would upset you. But it seems you’ve guessed it already!”
The way he was looking at her seemed full of regret. The numb pain filled Song Qinghuan’s heart. She reached out and embraced him, burying her face in his chest, craving this one bit of warmth.
After letting the sadness wash over her, she sat upright again.
Now being pregnant, with her belly in the way, she couldn’t greedily hold Shi Yuhuan for long.
She rubbed her face to regain her composure and said, “If Li Wei felt guilty about my brother, felt like she had let him down, then why did she collude with those people? Was she being threatened…”
Shi Yuhuan nodded, “To be honest, the situation was chaotic at that time. Li Wei didn’t know that things were going to escalate. She regretted it and tried to cut ties with those people, but it was not that simple. They threatened her with her mother’s life. She had no choice but to do as they said.”
Song Qinghuan thought back to the last phone call she received from Li Wei.
She was sobbing lightly, stammering, “I can’t hang on anymore, my mom… I can’t hang on, I really can’t hang on anymore, Qinghuan…”
“What about Li Wei’s mom? How is she now?” She anxiously asked.
“Her mother is in the hospital. Your brother is taking care of her.” Shi Yuhuan replied, his gaze calm and sharp, apparently aware of everything but keeping some information to himself.
Song Qinghuan looked at him steadily and asked, “Is there anything else you haven’t told me?”
Shi Yuhuan reached out to caress her face, seemingly helpless.
He said quietly, “At that time, she decided to let your brother uncover everything because she was pregnant herself. That’s why she didn’t want your brother to leave…”
Song Qinghuan was overwhelmed by a wave of sorrow, rendering her speechless. 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
