Qin Yingyue had yet to recover from her initial panic.
However, after hearing Lin Yi’s words, she fell into a state of horror.
Her heart beat faster, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
She immediately knew that Lin Yi had realized who she was!
She wanted to reveal her identity, but she didn’t dare.
She knew that she had no right to do so, but after thinking about it, she did not know how to reject him.
She stood there for a long time, unable to say a word.
“She is Qin Yingyue,” Shen Shuyi said.
“The person standing beside Qin Yanling is called Qin Yanfu. He’s the eldest son of the third generation of the Qin family. He’s here to look for her today. You should settle this matter.”
“Got it, Aunt Shen. You guys should go back to the car first.”
Lin Yi’s voice was very low, but it seemed to contain suppressed power.
Shen Shuyi pulled Qin Yingyue into the car expressionlessly.
She could use her status as the young mistress of a powerful family to chase the Qin brothers away.
But she didn’t.
He felt that this was an internal matter of the Qin family and they had to resolve it themselves.
The women’s departure caused the atmosphere between the three of them to become tense.
“Lin Yi, I don’t want to address our grudges today, but this is our Qin family’s private matter. 1 hope you will understand your position and not get involved. You have no right to interfere!”
Although they felt that Lin Yi and Qin Yingyue’s reactions were very strange, neither of the Qin brothers thought too much about it.
“Are you trying to teach me how to act?”
“It looks like you don’t want to leave.”
Lin Yi didn’t answer directly. “From the looks of it, the two of you probably won’t leave either. In that case, let’s just do it. Someone has to be defeated here.”
“No wonder you dared to fight my brother. You’re really arrogant. You have guts.”
Qin Yanfu took a step forward and got into his stance. He said to Lin Yi,
“Are you ready?”
“Just go.”
Qin Yanfu narrowed his eyes and exerted strength under his feet. With a sudden bang, his body shot towards Lin Yi like a cannonball!
With this simple action, Lin Yi could tell that his level was much higher than Qin Yanling’s. They were on completely different levels!
Rushing in front of Lin Yi, Qin Yanfu threw a straight punch at him!
“Do you think it’s appropriate to go to upset the Qin family this badly for the sake of a stranger?!”
“As a loser, this isn’t something you should worry about. The two of you better get lost now. Don’t make me unhappy.”
Qin Yanfu clenched his fists tightly, unable to vent his hatred.
“P*ss off!”
Enduring the pain, Qin Yanfu got up and left with Qin Yanling in the car.
After dealing with the two of them, Lin Yi looked back.
At this moment, Shen Shuyi and Qin Yingyue also walked out.
However, their expressions were different.
Shen Shuyi’s expression was emotional, while Qin Yingyue’s expression was uneasy.
At this moment, Lin Yi understood everything.
No wonder Shen Shuyi kept asking inviting him to eat with her. In reality, it was not for her sake.
It was for that woman.
Lin Yi, who had always been energetic, was at a loss and uneasy at this moment.
Previously, many people had talked to him about this matter. When he was alone, he had often fantasized about what his attitude would be when he faced his mother one day.
But now that he was actually meeting her, Lin Yi admitted that he wasn’t prepared.
Or rather, he wanted to run away.
It had been more than 20 years. The woman who had sent him to the orphanage had appeared in front of him.
Did he hate her?
A little, but not much.
On that night, tears streamed down her face like pouring rain, washing away all of Lin Yi’s resentment towards her.
She had her own difficulties.
“There’s nothing much to say. You should have guessed her identity by now,” Shen Shuyi said softly.
“Your biological father, just like you are now, was wild and rebellious when he was young, making countless enemies. But he wasn’t as lucky as you are, who has us to support you, along with the Qin family. At that time, he also had a falling out with your mother. In order to protect your safety, she had no choice but to send you to an orphanage. All of this was a result of circumstances, so I hope you can understand.”
Shen Shuyi’s voice was very soft as she recounted what had happened back then.
Were these things important to Lin Yi?
They had been very important because this was the truth behind his past.
However, upon closer examination, he realized it wasn’t actually that important.
So many years had passed, and everything had become insignificant with the passage of time.
Lin Yi slowly opened his arms, tears filling his eyes.
“I don’t hate you. Thank you for giving me life..”
