She had just thought that the sweet little man she once knew had returned, but now she heard such shocking news...

However, she could not imagine that Xiaoli would do such a thing. When he was a child, he was reluctant to step on an ant to death.

"I didn't!" Suddenly, an angry voice sounded at the door.

Pei Zhili stood at the door, his sinister gaze fixed on Jiang Qixing's face, his jaw clenched tightly.

This bastard… not only did he cry in front of his mother and act pitiful to her, but he also slandered him. If he could tolerate this, he wouldn’t be a normal person!

Jiang Qixing seemed to hear nothing, immersed in the horrible past, tears falling silently.

Jiang Tingxia quickly picked up a tissue to wipe his tears, thinking that it was good for him to cry, which was better than holding it in.

Seeing Pei Zhili come in, Jiang Qixing's eyes turned resentful, "It's obviously you..."

"Nonsense!" Pei Zhili strode up to him, raised his fist and wanted to hit him again, but was stopped by Jiang Tingxia, "Calm down!"

Pei Zhili said anxiously, "Mom, I didn't do that kind of thing, please believe me!"

Jiang Tingxia took a deep breath. It was difficult for her to take sides now, and she couldn't let them fight. She could only say, "Okay, I'll find a way to find out. You all calm down. Don't argue or fight again until you figure out the whole thing. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"

Pei Zhili clenched his teeth tightly and finally put down his fist. He looked at Jiang Qixing with disgust and turned away.

Jiang Tingxia had no choice but to comfort Jiang Qixing first, "Xiaoxing, you're still sick. Don't think too much, just have a good rest. I know you love cats, and killing six kittens is indeed cruel, but in my opinion, Xiaoli is not that kind of person. Are you willing to give me some time to figure this out?"

Jiang Qixing looked at her with red eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "I saw it with my own eyes."

"..."

"He was holding a knife and there was blood all over the ground..." Jiang Qixing closed his eyes and couldn't say any more.

The kittens he picked up were all young kittens that had not yet grown up and could hardly walk steadily, but their ears and limbs had been chopped off... At that time, he thought that only the devil could be so cruel. His young heart was greatly shocked, and he could no longer look Pei Zhili in the face.

It is already very difficult to get a child who is unable to communicate normally to speak so much.

Jiang Tingxia hugged him and said, "Okay, it's been so many years, it's okay now. I will get to the bottom of this matter. If I find the person who abused the cat, I will not let him go."

Jiang Qixing let her hold him, leaning in her warm embrace, his excitement gradually subsided.

After a while, Jiang Qixing hugged the cat and curled up in the quilt.

"Have a good rest." Jiang Tingxia touched his head and was about to get up and leave when Jiang Qixing suddenly opened his eyes and said to her, "Don't go."

Jiang Tingxia was a little surprised, then turned around and smiled at him, "Okay, I'll leave after you fall asleep."

Only then did Jiang Qixing close his eyes with peace of mind.

After making sure he was asleep, Jiang Tingxia left the room and found that Pei Zhili had not left yet. He was leaning against the door, as if waiting for her.

As soon as she came out, he hurriedly explained to her again, "I didn't."

Jiang Tingxia didn't doubt his words. Given his fearless personality, if he really did it, he would probably admit it directly. But he always insisted that he didn't do such a thing, so she had reason to believe him.

"I believe you."

"Really?" Pei Zhili was stunned. She didn't even ask him about the situation at that time?

"Of course. In my eyes, you're a good kid and wouldn't do anything like that. I'll check it out."

“…” Pei Zhili’s throat rolled and his heart felt slightly hot.

It feels... so good to have someone who is willing to believe in him unconditionally.

...

When Pei Yanzhou came back from the group, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. The whole villa was very quiet. There was no one in the living room. Usually, Jiang Tingxia would curl up on the sofa and watch TV series.

His heart was in suspense for a moment. At this moment, Butler Zhong came to greet him. When he learned that Jiang Tingxia and the children were upstairs, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurried upstairs.

The moment he entered the master bedroom and saw Jiang Tingxia, his heart finally settled down.

Jiang Tingxia looked like she had just taken a shower. She changed into a lotus pink silk nightgown and sat on the chaise longue by the floor-to-ceiling window with her legs curled up. There was a laptop in front of her, and she was looking at something intently. Her long, slightly curly hair fell behind her, and she looked quiet and beautiful.

Pei Yanzhou hung his coat aside, tugged at the tie on his shirt, and walked towards her. When he reached behind her, he bent down, lowered his head, and kissed her cheek. "Why aren't you watching the drama today? I thought..."

Jiang Tingxia turned around to look at him, her red lips slightly curled, "What do you think? I will disappear?"

Pei Yanzhou's face darkened, "Don't say these two words."

Jiang Tingxia chuckled, "Look how scared you are. Do you want me to install a camera and watch me 24 hours a day?"

"Good idea. We can also install a GPS so that even if you are not around, I will know where to find you."

Jiang Tingxia feigned anger and glared at him. "I think Xiaoli learned his tyranny and authoritarianism from you. Can you set a good example?"

Pei Yanzhou chuckled and sat down beside her. "What are you looking at?"

When he saw the words on the screen clearly, he was stunned. "Psychology?"

"Yes, I wanted to see what kind of psychological problems Xiaoxing had and see if I could find some solutions. But today he actually cried and told me the secret that was weighing on his heart. I was very happy."

Pei Yanzhou was confused. After Jiang Tingxia told him the whole story, he frowned and fell into deep thought.

Jiang Tingxia was a little worried. "Ayan, do you remember who was at home at the time? If it wasn't Xiaoli who did it, then the person who had contact with the cat must be someone who works at home. They are the most suspicious!"

"Well, but..."

So many years have passed, and the people from that time have long since changed and are no longer in contact, so it is very difficult to find them.

Pei Yanzhou paused, then said: "I will find a way to find those people one by one."

"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you. This is an important task, and you must complete it for me!" Jiang Tingxia pointed at the tip of his nose and gave orders.

Pei Yanzhou held her fingers, kissed her fingertips lightly, and said happily: "Yes, my wife, I promise to complete the task."

As he was talking, he remembered something and asked her, "Are you free tomorrow? Let's go to Director Lin together?"

"Is it the director who invited you to star in that dating variety show? Okay." Jiang Tingxia agreed readily.

Pei Yanzhou smiled and kissed her fingers again, "I'm going to take a shower."

These two words are inexplicably ambiguous.
