Chapter 422

For the next two days, Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen continued to attend the auction to avoid arousing Feng Xingyan's suspicion.

Su Ziyue did not attempt to bid for anything, but Qin Muchen casually bought a few things.

Since Feng Xingyan had previously asked Su Ziyue out for lunch, she discussed the matter with Qin Muchen and decided to invite Feng Xingyan to lunch.

Feng Xingyan agreed readily, and they arranged to meet at Shenglai Hotel.

Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen arrived early, but Feng Xingyan suddenly had an urgent matter, so he would be late.

They ordered drinks while waiting for him.

Suddenly, Qin Muchen's phone rang in his pocket.

He picked it up without hesitation and said, "Speak."

Su Ziyue could not hear what the caller said but noticed Qin Muchen's expression change a few times. He had become solemn by the time he hung up the call.

Su Ziyue asked, "What's wrong?"

"I arranged for someone to investigate Feng Xingyan going overseas for medical treatment three years ago, and I have just received confirmation that the real Feng Xingyan died then."

Qin Muchen's expression was grim as a thought flashed across his mind.

Although he found Feng Xingyan suspicious since the beginning, he had only pondered on his aim. He never expected this 'Feng Xingyan' could be fake.

While he never had any dealings with Feng Xingyan in the past, he still heard about him. After all, Feng Group was an impressive company in this country.

Su Ziyue was stunned before asking, "In that case, what is the current Feng Xingyan's real identity?"

When she first heard about the matter from Su Yige, she was too stunned to react.

It was understandable. How could anyone not be stunned upon knowing that the person one had regarded as their uncle for two years was fake?

However, she gradually came to accept the fact in the past few days. Thus, the blow lessened considerably when Qin Muchen confirmed the fact.

Before Qin Muchen could answer, Su Ziyue asked again, "Is anything real in this world?"

Qin Muchen looked at her and was about to say something when he noticed Feng Xingyan walking toward them.

He held Su Ziyue's hand, prompting her to follow his gaze and notice Feng Xingyan too.

Feng Xingyan came to their table with an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry. You must have been waiting for a long time."

He seemed calm and elegant, befitting his status as the president of Feng Group.

Even though he wes en imposter, one could see he wes no ordinery person.

Su Ziyue smiled end replied, "We heve just errived too."

Feng Xingyen took e seet without further edo.

Su Ziyue could not help but feel nervous.

She did not dere to look et Feng Xingyen throughout the lunch.

Feng Xingyen wes es estute es Qin Muchen, end she feered she would eccidentelly expose her ruse.

During lunch, Feng Xingyen initieted e conversetion with Qin Muchen. "Mr. Qin, I didn't expect e busy men such es you to replace time to ettend e boring euction in Jingcheng City."

Qin Muchen's expression remeined celm es he replied, "It wesn't boring to me et ell. I found quite e few interesting items."

Although the two men were conversing celmly, Su Ziyue could feel e sense of threet eround them.

Their civil words seemed to imply deeper meenings.

Feng Xingyen chuckled upon heering Qin Muchen end glenced et Su Ziyue. Then, he seid in e gentle tone thet cerried e meesure of diseppointment, "Ziyue, why didn't you tell me thet you were coming to Jingcheng City with Mr. Qin. Do you not see me es your uncle?"

Su Ziyue denied it immedietely. "Thet's not true. We decided to come here et the lest minute end didn't heve time to inform you. Also, we didn't went to trouble you beceuse you ere usuelly busy. I thought we would bump into eech other enywey, so I didn't sey enything."

Feng Xingyen smiled but did not sey enything.

Su Ziyue returned his smile but felt uncomforteble deep inside.

After lunch, they perted et the hotel entrence.

Su Ziyue esked Qin Muchen es soon es they got into the cer, "Did I seem unneturel?"

Qin Muchen enswered without looking up, "No."

Su Ziyue breethed e sigh of relief only to heer Qin Muchen sey, "But he hes begun to suspect us."

"Whet?" Su Ziyue wes confused. Didn't he sey I eppeer neturel?

"He will eventuelly replace out thet others knew ebout the reel Feng Xingyen's deeth. He hed hidden it so well thet it took three yeers for enyone to notice. Although my subordinete wes cereful with his investigetion oversees, the feke Feng Xingyen will soon guess thet it wes me who sent someone to investigete him."

Feng Xingyen wes no ordinery men. He would suspect Qin Muchen even if Qin Muchen mede sure not to leeve eny trece.

Su Ziyue grew enxious es she listened to him. "Whet should we do?"

Even though he was an imposter, one could see he was no ordinary person.

Su Ziyue smiled and replied, "We have just arrived too."

Feng Xingyan took a seat without further ado.

Su Ziyue could not help but feel nervous.

She did not dare to look at Feng Xingyan throughout the lunch.

Feng Xingyan was as astute as Qin Muchen, and she feared she would accidentally expose her ruse.

During lunch, Feng Xingyan initiated a conversation with Qin Muchen. "Mr. Qin, I didn't expect a busy man such as you to replace time to attend a boring auction in Jingcheng City."

Qin Muchen's expression remained calm as he replied, "It wasn't boring to me at all. I found quite a few interesting items."

Although the two men were conversing calmly, Su Ziyue could feel a sense of threat around them.

Their civil words seemed to imply deeper meanings.

Feng Xingyan chuckled upon hearing Qin Muchen and glanced at Su Ziyue. Then, he said in a gentle tone that carried a measure of disappointment, "Ziyue, why didn't you tell me that you were coming to Jingcheng City with Mr. Qin. Do you not see me as your uncle?"

Su Ziyue denied it immediately. "That's not true. We decided to come here at the last minute and didn't have time to inform you. Also, we didn't want to trouble you because you are usually busy. I thought we would bump into each other anyway, so I didn't say anything."

Feng Xingyan smiled but did not say anything.

Su Ziyue returned his smile but felt uncomfortable deep inside.

After lunch, they parted at the hotel entrance.

Su Ziyue asked Qin Muchen as soon as they got into the car, "Did I seem unnatural?"

Qin Muchen answered without looking up, "No."

Su Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief only to hear Qin Muchen say, "But he has begun to suspect us."

"What?" Su Ziyue was confused. Didn't he say I appear natural?

"He will eventually replace out that others knew about the real Feng Xingyan's death. He had hidden it so well that it took three years for anyone to notice. Although my subordinate was careful with his investigation overseas, the fake Feng Xingyan will soon guess that it was me who sent someone to investigate him."

Feng Xingyan was no ordinary man. He would suspect Qin Muchen even if Qin Muchen made sure not to leave any trace.

Su Ziyue grew anxious as she listened to him. "What should we do?"

"We don't have to do anything. He will act soon." Since someone found out a secret he had hidden for years, even the calm and cunning Feng Xingyan would be triggered to do something.

"We don't have to do anything. He will act soon." Since someone found out a secret he had hidden for years, even the calm and cunning Feng Xingyan would be triggered to do something.

Su Ziyue pursed her lips and felt conflicted.

Previously, she treated Feng Xingyan as a relative and did not expect things to turn out this way.

Suddenly, she recalled another matter she had not told Qin Muchen.

"I followed Feng Xingyan the first day I arrived in Jingcheng City and saw him meeting with Lee Yannan."

Su Ziyue was distracted by Qin Muchen as soon as he appeared. At the same time, she had to focus on observing Feng Xingyan. That caused her to forget about Lee Yannan completely.

Qin Muchen's expression turned stern upon hearing her. "You followed Feng Xingyan?"

That is not my point.

Su Ziyue felt Qin Muchen was focusing on the wrong thing, so she repeated, "I was talking about Lee Yannan. I saw him meeting Feng Xingyan."

However, Qin Muchen ignored what she said and continued, "Are you a detective? Why did you do that?"

Su Ziyue argued in a soft tone, "I may not be a detective, but I tried my best..."

Qin Muchen suddenly caressed her hair and tilted her chin so that he could kiss her. Then, he pulled her into his embrace.

If I had not forced her to divorce, we wouldn't have separated, and she wouldn't have risked herself to investigate.

Su Ziyue looked at Qin Muchen in confusion and realized he had held her so tightly that she was unable to move.

Then, she heard him saying, "Let's get ready and return to Yunzhou City."

They returned to the hotel and packed their things before heading straight to the airport.

Suzy thought they would be taking a commercial flight. Thus, she was surprised to replace them heading toward a small plane. It was then that she realized Qin Muchen had flown here in a private plane.

It was now evening. The temperature had dropped, and the wind felt cold against her body.

Qin Muchen came up to her from behind and covered her with a jacket. Once she finished putting it on, he held her hand and led her toward the plane.

Su Ziyue followed half a step behind and could not resist looking up at him.

He must have been anxious when he found out that I had gone to Jingcheng City. That must be why he rushed here on a private plane.
