Is he teasing me

Zhang Moyan's words stunned everyone. Before, everyone focused on her identity as the daughter of Chen Yun and the descendant of Chen Guanfu. It seemed that only at this time after being reminded did they suddenly remember that, yes, she was also Zhang Shunqing's flesh and blood.

Xiao Xingyu watched the changes in everyone's expressions and guessed that Zhang Shunqing must have a good reputation, because after Zhang Moyan said that she was his daughter, everyone's eyes magically softened.

But Xiao Weiji's job was not that easy. His face showed confusion, bewilderment, and realization, and at the end, mixed with doubt: "No, even if you are Shunqing's daughter, you may be a bad person. How can you prove that you are a good person?"

Zhang Moyan was really stumped by the question. This question was just like a bank asking a customer to prove that his father was his father. She stood up, looked back calmly, and said, "I don't need to prove that I am a good person. It's enough to live with a clear conscience. If you must prove it, I can only go to the public security agency to issue you a "Certificate of No Criminal Record". Do you think it's okay?"

Xiao Weiji: "Of course this won't work! Having no criminal record doesn't prove you're a traitor!"

"Is it enough that I married her?"

Xiao Xingyu inserted himself between the two of them, looked at Xiao Weiji suspiciously, and asked, "Uncle Weiji, you are so secretive for Zhang Shunqing, is it because Zhang Shunqing is responsible for the death of my second grandfather?"

Xiao Weiji shuddered all over and looked at Xiao Xingyu in horror. Xiao Xingyu twitched his lips and said, "This is also the reason why you concealed Zhang Shunqing's death for so many years, right? Because under normal circumstances, if you knew that Zhang Shunqing was in trouble, you would definitely tell us. The reason you didn't tell us is because you wanted to protect your brother's reputation, right?"

Xiao Xingyu's facial features were deep, and when he stared at someone with full insight, the pressure he brought to the target was boundless. If Xiao Weiji was tense before, now he could almost be said to be stiff after hearing this.

"Weiji, is this really the case?" Yan Mei rushed over with a hoarse voice, "Tell me everything you know! Guoxi has always been kind to you, please have pity on me and let a poor person like me know what happened!"

Under such a situation of both soft and hard tactics, Xiao Weiji's thoughts were struggling violently, and Dai Xuan couldn't bear it any longer. She turned around and pretended to sigh to Xiao Yanzhen: "Look, you hid it in front of me! I said we were too young, and it was just that we took advantage of our seniority. In fact, no one cared about it at all."

Xiao Yanzhen smiled without showing his teeth: "Yes, what should we do?" He looked at Xiao Xingyu apologetically, "It's useless for you to ask us to come, you might as well let us exercise more!"

After hearing this sarcastic remark, Xiao Weiji's ankles went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

"I said, I said..."

Xiao Xingyu curved his eyes at Xiao Yanzhen with satisfaction, and held Zhang Moyan tightly with his lowered hands, interlocking their fingers. Her palms were firmly grasped, and Zhang Moyan felt a warm force winding along her arms and reaching her heart, which was a very safe feeling.

The hall was completely silent. Xiao Weiji turned the pages of time in his mind, and the young and handsome face emerged. "More than 20 years ago, I found Shunqing in the bridge tunnel. He was in a bad mood and in a mess, so I took him home. He said he wanted to drink some wine, so I drank with him. As a result, he drank too much and cried non-stop. I asked him what happened to him, why Uncle Guoxi was killed after going to Luoyang, and why he and Chen Yun hadn't come back for so long, and he cried even harder. After my repeated questioning, he told me some things about what happened after he, Uncle Guoxi and Chen Yun went to Luoyang."

Xiao Weiji looked at the ground and paused briefly, but no one urged him.

"He said that when their investigation in Luoyang was nearing its end, one day Chen Yun came to tell him that she and Uncle Guoxi would be away from Luoyang for a few days, and asked him to continue to do the finishing work and wait for them. About ten days later, the two of them came back and brought back a plum vase that they had collected from somewhere. Uncle Guoxi excitedly told him that this plum vase was of great research value."

Plum vase?

Zhang Moyan raised her head and glanced at Xiao Xingyu. It seemed that the Wang family had abided by the agreement and did hand over the plum vase to Chen Yun after the crisis was resolved.

But how did the plum vase end up returning to the Wang family? ...

"The investigation in Luoyang was over at that time, and the three of them started their return journey. However, they were followed and robbed by unidentified people on the way. Their target was the plum vase. In order to divert the attention of the group of people, Uncle Guoxi asked Shunqing and Chen Yun to take the plum vase away first, and repeatedly told him to protect the plum vase... When they came back a few days later, Uncle Guotao had already brought his family to claim the body."

When Xiao Guotao heard this, he sighed, slowly closed his eyes, and recalled the sad past.

"Shunqing felt extremely remorseful for Uncle Guoxi's death. He felt that he had failed to protect Uncle Guoxi. He strongly advocated bringing the plum vase back to explain to everyone. But Chen Yun disagreed. Her reason was that they had such a valuable thing in their hands, and Uncle Guoxi was also killed. They would definitely be suspected and it would be difficult to explain. It would be better to wait until the police solved the case and arrested the murderer before going back... Shunqing was confused and listened to Chen Yun's words."

When everyone heard this, their eyes widened, feeling both angry and brilliant at the reason Chen Yun gave.

"Later, Chen Yun said that he wanted to carry on Uncle Guoxi's will and study the plum vase carefully, so he proposed to find a place to settle down where he could study porcelain. So they went to Hangzhou, the site of the Southern Song Dynasty official kiln, which has a similar background to this place, and entered a large-scale porcelain factory."

Zhang Moyan's eyes jumped. Hangzhou, porcelain factory... that's the Geng family! Zhang Moyan felt a chill. How could the Xiao family, Wang family, and Geng family be so coincidental? It was obvious that Chen Yun had been cautious at every step, and Zhang Shunqing might have been kept in the dark.

Xiao Weiji continued, "You all know that Shunqing is a rare talent in our industry. He was also under great psychological pressure from the tragic death of Uncle Guoxi, so he worked twice as hard. Suddenly one day he finally discovered the value of the plum vase. He happily told Chen Yun, but right after that, he found out that Chen Yun was in contact with several Japanese. He collected evidence and interrogated Chen Yun, and Chen Yun finally confessed to him that she was Chen Guanfu's daughter. They had a falling out, and then what was even more hateful was that Chen Yun actually disappeared with the plum vase. When she came back, the plum vase was gone!"

At this point, Xiao Weiji clenched his fists and made a clattering sound: "Shun Qing asked Chen Yun where she had taken the plum vase, but Chen Yun refused to tell him. This traitor must have given the plum vase to the Japanese! Shun Qing felt that he was a sinner and a fool. He hated Chen Yun so much that he wanted to end his life with her, but Chen Yun told him that she was pregnant..." (End of this chapter)
