That day, Ye Qingrou waited from dusk till dawn, but Pei Muchuan never came back.

Later she found out that Cheng Yu's father had a heart attack, and Pei Muchuan flew abroad in a hurry to bring back the best team of experts to save him.

That’s right, in his eyes, their wedding anniversary is nothing compared to Cheng Yu’s father’s life.

Then, she discovered the room on the top floor filled with photos of Cheng Yu. It turned out that the Cheng family had fallen on hard times in recent years, and Pei Muchuan had single-handedly supported them, even buying a mountain and water manor specifically for the Cheng family's elderly couple to live in during their retirement...

He is truly a loving, filial and good son-in-law.

What shocked her even more was a video on Pei Muchuan's phone of a child calling "Dad".

Pei Muchuan actually raised an illegitimate child behind her back.

Reality gave Ye Qingrou the hardest slaps in the face.

All fantasies were shattered.

How could she be so conceited as to think that he also liked her? He just liked her body.

Ye Qingrou didn't even dare to ask further questions, she knew she was not qualified.

If he knew that she had already fallen in love with him, he might even think that she had deliberately climbed into his bed from the beginning...

The most precious place in his heart was forever reserved for the perfect Cheng Yu who had passed away. What was she to him? A bed partner? Or the indirect murderer who had killed his beloved Cheng Yu?

After that, Ye Qingrou began to distance herself from Pei Muchuan and rejected his advances.

He could separate his body and his heart, but she couldn't.

Pei Muchuan moved out of the master bedroom, and they gradually returned to the unfamiliar and distant state they were at the beginning.

But after experiencing such a "sweet" ten years, she had long been accustomed to peeking at his sleeping face every night, accustomed to sleeping in his arms, accustomed to many intimate and tender moments with him at night...

She tried her best to remain calm and distant in front of him, and at night, she cried many times alone in the cold bed.

It took her many years to separate herself from him, her emotions silently collapsing, and then she became as calm as a stagnant pool of water...

"Let me go." Ye Qingrou said coldly.

Pei Muchuan avoided her cold gaze that stung his heart, loosened his arms, and gently put her down.

Ye Qingrou stood up straight, calmly adjusted her coat, and looked at the old couple of the Cheng family calmly.

"Excuse me, how can I be considered the murderer of Miss Cheng? Am I the driver who caused the accident, or did I force her to go to the airport?"

For so many years, Cheng Yu’s death not only weighed on Pei Muchuan’s heart, but also on Ye Qingrou’s heart.

She once regretted and blamed herself. If she had not rashly agreed to marry Pei Muchuan, would it not have hindered them and would Cheng Yu have not died?

Later, she figured it out. There are just too many accidents in this world. Why did she take on responsibilities that didn't belong to her? She was consumed by internal friction and blindly kind. Even if she was sad to death, it would be of no use, and no one would understand her...

"I had no idea about Miss Cheng's existence beforehand. If I had known, I would never have married into the Pei family!"

"So, why do you call me a murderer? I can't bear it!"

The old couple of the Cheng family were stunned.

Old Mrs. Cheng was so angry that she pointed at her and yelled, "You shameless bitch! How dare you compare yourself to our Xiao Yu?"

Father Cheng snorted disdainfully, "Yeah. Are you worthy of being Mrs. Pei? Only our Xiao Yu and Mu Chuan are the most suitable! You got the advantage and you dare to come here and ask for a scolding?"

He instructed Pei Muchuan in the tone of an elder: "Muchuan, look at this! Not only does she have no remorse or guilt towards us, she even bullies us! How are you going to deal with her?"

"Otherwise, Xiao Yu's spirit in heaven will not rest in peace!"

Cheng's parents stared at Pei Muchuan with anticipation.

Ye Qingrou also looked at Pei Muchuan, feeling cold all over.

Pei Muchuan brought her here... to let her confess and apologize to Cheng Yu's parents?

She clenched the bag in her hand. Although her heart had been numb for a long time, she still felt a long-lost tingling pain.

She turned around and walked away, but her wrist was grabbed.

Pei Muchuan's gloomy voice suddenly rang out: "Is your daughter's soul at peace in heaven any of my business?"

Ye Qingrou froze and turned to look at him in surprise.

Pei Muchuan's face was gloomy and frightening. "Your daughter and I are the best match? How are we a match?"

"Your daughter's sexual orientation is female."

"Are you planning on having me go to Taiguo, get surgery, take a few barrels of estrogen, and then mate with her?"

In an instant, Cheng's parents were shocked and stood there looking at each other guiltily.

Father Cheng was tongue-tied and tried to argue: "Muchuan, you..."

Pei Muchuan's eyes were sharp and frightening. "How about I send you to Taiguo first to set an example for me? After all, I saved your life. It's not too much to ask you to throw that thing away, right?"

Father Cheng collapsed to the ground in fear.

"Muchuan, you...how can you say that!" Mother Cheng trembled: "Don't you remember that Xiao Yu died for you?"

Pei Muchuan sneered and said coldly, "First, you have to apologize to my wife for insulting her just now."

"Why should I? She is the murderer who killed my daughter. You are all the murderers who killed my daughter!" Cheng's mother said angrily, "You have no conscience. You are sorry for Xiao Yu!"

Ye Qingrou looked at everything in front of her in a daze and astonishment.

It felt like the world had finally gone mad and was no longer recognizable to her. What the hell was going on?

"Are you even worthy enough to mention Xiao Yu? It's you, the wolf-like parents, who have lost all conscience from the beginning to the end!"

An angry voice suddenly joined the battle.

Ye Qingrou subconsciously turned her head and saw an extremely thin figure slowly walking into the yard.

"If we must find a murderer for Xiao Yu's death, it would be you, the so-called parents, and... me. Everyone else is innocent."

The man slowly approached, and Ye Qingrou was stunned when she saw his face clearly.

There was a large black-gray scar on the left side of the man's face, almost disfiguring...
