You Junle seemed to have expected that Shi Qingxue would ask him such a question. He paused for a moment and then nodded frankly, answering simply, “Right.”
“…Is your…”
Damn it.
Shi Qingxue felt that her lips started to tremble. She quivered for a long time and then continued to ask, “Is your family name Shi?”
This time her voice was softer and more hesitant.
However, You Junle replied more directly than last time, “Yes. Before my mother died, my name was Shi Junle.”
He seemed to think of something and showed a weird and excited smile. Then he stressed each word. “My Lady, if you want to ask about my age, I can tell you that I am fifty years old, eight years older than your father.”
At the mention of Shi Junhe, there was disdain on You Junle’s face evidently. He looked the same as he did when he left Duke Shi’s mansion.
You Junle, or Shi Junle looked down upon Shi Junhe.
Shi Qingxue felt that a bomb exploded in her brain, and the words “Shi Junle” flashed in it repeatedly.
She seemed to be possessed and guessed Shi Junle’s identity all the time.
When she got more frightened while thinking, a pair of big hands with much strength covered her eyes gently.
As the warm and familiar breath surrounded her, Qingxue relaxed for no reason, and the complicated thoughts in her brain vanished.
She couldn’t help but lean backward, as if the broad chest behind her was her most reliable support.
Mo Junyang hugged Qingxue more tightly and meanwhile looked at You Junle mercilessly, with warning in his eyes.
You Junle had heard about their relationship before. Although he was quite satisfied with Mo Junyang’s behavior from selfish motives, he smiled at the young man with provocation.
He just feared nothing as he had something to rely on.
Aha!
Because Shi Qingxue was here and had guessed his identity, You Junle would be fine even though Mo Junyang was reluctant.
However, You Junle misjudged.
Mo Junyang didn’t get angry after being provoked but smiled at You Junle with more provocation. Then he expressed unhurriedly, “Don’t think too much. He is not Elder Duke Shi’s illegitimate child.”
He revealed the truth with no mercy.
As expected, Mo Junyang saw You Junle’s shocked and hurried expression.
You Junle blurted out, “How did you know it?”
As soon as he finished his words, he suddenly shut up.
However, he had “confessed without torture”.
At the moment, even though Shi Qingxue couldn’t see their faces, she guessed something roughly.
On one hand, she was amazed as Mo Junyang knew so much, and on the other hand, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she didn’t have another paternal uncle for no reason.
Qingxue raised her hand and put it on Mo Junyang’s hand, silently telling him that she was fine.
Then she finally got rid of his hug.
The light entered Qingxue’s eyes, and she blinked. Then she got accustomed to it again.
She pondered according to the clue offered by Mo Junyang and soon guessed You Junle’s identity. He must have been fostered by Shi Lei when he was alive. After the cranium’s owner passed away, he changed his family name because he was unwilling to have Shi Lei’s family name as he thought that his mother’s death had something to do with Shi Lei.
But now he was willing to fulfil Shi Lei’s last wish. He did that for his late mother and perhaps he still had feelings for Shi Lei.
You Junle listened to Shi Qingxue’s analysis. Although it was slightly different from the truth, it was true in the main.
And everything was deduced under the condition offered by Mo Junyang.
This man was horribly acute.
You Junle didn’t try to retort but stared at Mo Junyang for a long time. He still couldn’t figure it out, so he asked, “Almost all people in the world who knew the relationship between my mother and Elder Duke Shi have passed away. Even if some people are alive, they have to keep their mouths shut under the threat of the princess royal. How did you know this matter?”
“Oh? Which matter do you want to ask about?” Mo Junyang evaded the crucial point and asked in reply.
Anyway, he was not the one who was anxious, and he didn’t need to give an answer in a hurry.
You Junle thought that Mo Junyang intentionally beat around the bush, so he asked directly, “How did you know that my mother was Elder Duke Shi’s official wife?”
“Official wife?” Mo Junyang repeated the words meaningfully.
Then he raised his head and smiled at You Junle slyly, explaining, “You told me just now.”
You Junle was speechless.
Fine!
Seeing that Shi Qingxue’s big eyes widened like lanterns, You Junle knew that he was fooled by the young man Mo Junyang again who was so crafty, and he couldn’t deny it.
You Junle kept silent for a long time and then sighed in the end.
He raised his head and looked at Shi Qingxue again, with a sincere and firm expression in his eyes. Then he made it worse and said frankly, “Almost all my secrets were revealed after you lured me into a trap, and it’s pointless if I try to cover it up. I am not afraid of telling you the truth.”
“What?” Shi Qingxue asked in a daze.
This time, she experienced what was called brain explosion.
It seemed that all the logic disappeared, and she had to follow others’ words.
You Junle continued, “My mother was named You Si and was your grandpa, Elder Duke Shi’s first wife. She was dead on the twentieth day of the fourth lunar month in the Year of Yihai. As for the cranium in your hand, on her death day after three years, your grandpa personally opened her coffin and took out her cranium. Then he engraved the words of “the tenth day of the first lunar month in the Year of Yihai” in it as a keepsake.
“The rest skeleton of my mother was burnt to dashes and put in an eight-treasure box by your grandpa in person…”
While speaking, You Junle purposely stopped and looked at Shi Qingxue who turned pale after hearing such a shocking story, asking with a smile, “Speaking of the eight-treasure box, you must be familiar with it, right?”
Of course, it was familiar to Shi Qingxue.
An eight-treasure box disappeared from Shi Lei’s coffin.
If what You Junle said was true, it must be…
Shi Qingxue trembled and was unwilling to believe his words, but she couldn’t find an argument to retort him.
She suddenly thought of a possibility and looked at You Junle suddenly, asking, “Is You Si really your mother?”
As soon as she finished her words, she realized that she said something improper, so she hurriedly explained, “No. I mean, she is not your biological mother, right?”
You Junle glanced at Shi Qingxue with admiration yet replied seriously, “Right. Although You Si is not my biological mother, I can’t forget that she raised me.”
“Then…” Shi Qingxue asked with more difficulty.
When You Junle mentioned You Si’s death, he intentionally stressed the date. Didn’t he want to tell her that You Si died on the day when Shi Junhe was born?
She didn’t have extra energy to think about why You Si was Shi Lei’s official wife, which was unbelievable. She just wanted to know one key point, but she couldn’t ask.
Fortunately…
Shi Qingxue had Mo Junyang around her.
Mo Junyang grabbed her hand and asked directly on behalf of her, “How did You Si die?”
You Junle sighed with emotion as this young couple thought alike, yet he still told them the true answer. “She died of a disease. At that time, my mother was seriously ill, but the doctor could do nothing because one kind of medicinal material was needed, while Elder Duke Shi couldn’t find it after looking for it everywhere in the capital city.
“When he was almost desperate, the princess royal said that she had that medicinal material and was willing to give it to my mother…”
“What was the price?” Mo Junyang asked straightforwardly.
You Junle was speechless and glanced at Mo Junyang with complaints.
The young people nowadays were not lovely at all. They didn’t give him time to keep them in suspense, and they were so hateful.
You Junle had no choice but to tell the truth. “The princess royal demanded Shi Lei to marry her and wanted to replace my mother and become his only wife.”
She was a shameless outsider, and it was fine when she stole somebody else’s husband, yet she even took advantage of another woman’s difficulties and wanted to elbow out his first wife because of her identity as a princess royal.
At the mention of this story, You Junle couldn’t conceal his disgust for Mo Shujun.
He even disliked Mo Junyang, who was also a royal family member.
If Mo Shujun was not a princess royal then, or if she didn’t have that medicinal material to save a life, how could she become Duke Shi’s wife?
“Elder Duke Shi Agreed. And then?”
Mo Junyang thought that few people knew this issue that year because it would be a humiliation for Mo Shujun and perhaps there was no happy ending.
As expected, You Junle continued, “In order to save his wife, Elder Duke Shi had to endure his sorrow and divorce his wife, marrying another woman. However, when he got that medicinal material, my mother was incurably sick and couldn’t be saved. She only left a baby who was only one hundred days old, and…”
“A baby who was one hundred days old?” Mo Junyang incisively found the key point.
He stared at You Junle and asked, “That baby is the current Duke Shi, right?”
“No way!”
Shi Qingxue was dumbfounded when she was listening to You Junle who told them how vicious Mo Shujun was and how she made effort to marry Shi Lei.
Unexpectedly, they got more absurd while talking and even dared to say that Shi Junhe was a son left by You Si.
“It’s impossible!” Shi Qingxue denied it again.
She didn’t believe it, nor did she accept such an answer.
However, You Junle just gazed at her deeply and admitted it in silence.
“Impossible,” Shi Qingxue stressed for the third time.
How could she believe such an answer?
If it was true, and Shi Junhe was You Si’s son, didn’t Mo Shujun kill Shi Junhe’s mother as she was the chief criminal who stole You Si’s husband and forced Shi Lei to divorce her and then delayed to make her die of the illness in the end?
If the truth was known to the public, how would Shi Junhe show his face in the future?
Seeing that Shi Qingxue denied the fact repeatedly and didn’t believe it, You Junle thought that she tried to defend Mo Shujun.
So he looked cold in an instant and stated angrily, “What I said is the truth. If I tell a lie, I don’t mind being struck by lightning.
“Although this matter was kept as a secret under the pressure of your grandma, the fact is the fact and can’t be distorted.
“Don’t you always think that you are quite smart? There are so many doubtful points. Haven’t you doubted them? Or how long will you deceive yourself?”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
You Junle seemed to have expected that Shi Qingxue would ask him such a question. He paused for a moment and then nodded frankly, answering simply, “Right.”
“…Is your…”
Damn it.
Shi Qingxue felt that her lips started to tremble. She quivered for a long time and then continued to ask, “Is your family name Shi?”
