Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 259 She Couldn’t Face It

But this was when Lu Jinye was still a young child. He wasn’t allowed to listen to their adult conversations, and he had no say in their decisions.

Lu Jinye did not know.

But after that, even a mention of his mother would drive his father into rage.

He gradually stopped bringing her up.

And no one at home ever mentioned Mu Xue again.

The Shi Family protected him well and never brought up any grievances of the past.

At the time, Lu Jinye was not aware of it but that grievance that he was not allowed to know would be this important… And this terrifying.

The Shi Family was more powerful than the Lu Family. Thus, they were able to be more efficient in hiding their skeletons.

So even if Lu Jinye had hired people to investigate Mu Xue, not a lot could be found.

Besides widely known information such as her marriage, the rest were wiped clean.

Everything was gone.

“He was normal.”

Mu Zhi thought back and briefly described Mu Xianyong when she had met him.

Lu Jinye’s expression darkened.

The Mu Xianyong she had described was the same that his father had met.

But it wasn’t who he had met!

This meant that someone had taken on Mu Xianyong’s identity and approached Mu Zhi to gain her trust.

What was the motive behind it though?

Lu Jinye frowned, deep in thought.
