The end of the marriage: the CEO's husband is too dangerous

Chapter 22 Suicide
"No, I didn't cry..." Mu Li sniffed, smiled, squatted down to be at the same level as the little girl, and touched her soft black hair, but tears remained, "Mom is happy, happy, in a blink of an eye You've grown up so much."

"Don't you want to laugh when you're happy?" The little girl raised her little hand to wipe away her tears.

"Laugh, of course I laughed." Murray tried hard to make himself laugh.

Peanut grinned, stuck out his pink tongue, jumped between the two of them, rubbed left and right, and licked Lin Xi enthusiastically.

The little girl was caught off guard, and the precious parent-child time was interrupted, and she wrinkled her nose in anger, but Peanut was very clever, and immediately showed off her "martial arts" in a clever way, which completely amused the two of them.

That night, Lin Xi was so excited that she couldn't sleep, she took out her beloved toys and books, taught Mu Li how to play like a little adult, and told Mu Li stories in reverse, she didn't even need a domestic helper to take a bath, and sleeping was even worse. Stick to Murray.

Lin Jinqian didn't return all night, Mu Li woke up in the morning, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Xi sleeping beside her, her fair little face was pink and tender, like glutinous rice dumpling, and she couldn't help raising her hand to caress it.

How great would it be if the one lying next to her was her child?
It was already dawn, but Mu Li was greedy for the warmth of the bedding. She had hardly slept well in the past five years, and this night was particularly peaceful.

There was a knock on the door, and the domestic servant called softly, "Ma'am, breakfast is ready. Miss, it's time to go to the kindergarten after breakfast."

"Mom, can I not go to the kindergarten?" As soon as the voice outside the door fell, a child's voice came from beside him. Mu Li lowered his head to look, only to see that Lin Xi had opened the dark window at some point. His big eyes stared at her clearly.

"Have you had enough sleep?"

The little girl nodded slightly, but curled her lips and said: "But I don't want to go to kindergarten, I want to be with my mother."

As he spoke, his limp body squeezed into her arms like a caterpillar.

Mu Li's heart softened into a puddle of water, and he wanted to pamper this lovely child unprincipled, but there was another knock on the door, and the servant's voice became urgent, "Madam, it's time for the young lady to wake up, the young lady just came back , I will send the little lady to school in a while."

Lin Jinqian is back?Mu Li immediately sat up. She didn't forget Lin Jinqian's advice, and also remembered what the suspect said to her. If she really wanted to seek evidence from others, she must not make him angry.

"Mom?" Lin Xi sat up after her, but her small body was clinging to her.

Mu Li lifted the quilt from the bed, leaned over and picked Lin Xi up and walked to the inner bathroom, "Xiao Xi, your father is back, let's go wash up first, and he will take you to the kindergarten later."

Lin Xi was immediately discouraged, her face full of collagen was full of disappointment, "Mom, will you send me to kindergarten?"

Mu Li hesitated, and replied with a smile: "Mom will wash you first."

After washing up, Mu Li handed Lin Xi over to his servant to take him downstairs for breakfast. After tidying up by himself, he went downstairs, but as soon as he reached the entrance of the restaurant, he heard a gentle female voice——

"Drink some milk, Xiao Xi, after drinking, I will send you to kindergarten with my father."

It's Ling Shu.

Mu Li couldn't help but pause. Is this the rhythm of two people spending the night together?

"Mom!" Lin Xi, who was facing each other, saw Mu Li standing at the door of the restaurant, and his disappointed little face instantly lit up with joy.

Ling Shu was the most surprised when she heard the sound. She suddenly turned her head and looked at Mu Li with astonishment. She obviously didn't know the fact that she moved back to Lihuaxi.

But Ling Shu is a lady of a scholarly family after all, so she won't lose her sense of propriety on unexpected occasions. She immediately sorted out all her emotions, stood up with a smile, and set the plate for Mu Li, "Miss Mu, come and have breakfast." .”

Calling her "Miss Mu" couldn't be more obvious.

"Mom, come and have breakfast." Lin Xi sat on the chair, waving her little hands excitedly.

Mu Li smiled slightly, walked over with downcast eyes, took a seat at the empty side of the square table, and began to eat silently.

The atmosphere in the restaurant became weird, but Lin Jinqian remained calm and focused on enjoying the food from the beginning to the end.

Seeing the situation, Ling Shu was puzzled, the way the two got along was really weird, and she glanced at Mu Li and Lin Jinqian as if inadvertently while she was giving Lin Xi jam, and she understood that although Mrs Lin came back, In fact, it was the same, the breath that was raised in the throat was slowly swallowed.

"I want a salad."

The quiet dining environment was broken by Lin Xinuonuo's request. Mu Li raised her eyes, and Shala approached her, and she picked it up without thinking. It happened that Ling Shu reached out her hand.

Lin Xi took the salad in a soft voice, "Thank you, Mom."

The circulating air froze in an instant, Mu Li met the child's innocent eyes, smiled and withdrew his hand, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Lin Jinqian finishing his last sip of porridge, wiping his thin lips with a tissue, with elegant and dignified movements.

He always had long eyelashes drooping, and the emotion in his eyes couldn't be seen, then he put down the tissue and said indifferently: "Miss Ling, please take her to the car after eating, I'll go back to the study."

Ling Shu sat in a dignified posture, nodded with a smile, and the water in her eyes was soft.

Mu Li couldn't help smiling wryly, Lin Jinqian completely treated her like air, and told Ling Shu with practical actions that there was no threat at all, and at the same time reminded her that she was just a "Mrs.

After finishing his breakfast quickly, Mu Li left the dining table on the grounds of going back to his room to get his bag, otherwise the little girl would stick to her like glutinous rice balls. Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, a deserted figure came into view.

Sitting in front of the window, Lin Jinqian looked deeply at the late autumn scenery outside the glass. Hearing that she entered the room, he turned his face slightly and his eyes fell on the bed.

Mu Li followed his gaze and saw a newspaper placed on the bed at some point. She walked over, looked down, and saw a colorful picture with the text "The heir of the Lin family has a private meeting with a young beauty. In the old days, he had a daughter."

The man with a clear front in the picture is the heir Lin Yisheng. She only has a back view, but it is not difficult to recognize at a glance.

That was the scene at the artificial waterfall yesterday. I didn't expect to see the newspaper.

"The old man called early in the morning to ask, please give me an explanation." Lin Jinqian said flatly, and the wheelchair turned towards Mu Li.

Mu Li reached out to pick up the newspaper, but finally stopped in mid-air, just like she was hesitant to speak, unable to speak.

"The old man knows about you and Ah Sheng."

"What about you and Miss Ling?"

Lin Jinqian raised his eyes and glanced at her lightly, "Of course I know."

"Does he agree?"

"The old man disagreed with your marriage from the very beginning." Lin Jinqian turned the topic to her with a pun.

Mu Li secretly swallowed his breath, bent down and finally picked up the newspaper. Looking at his back in the photo, he felt a heavy sense of fatigue.

She pursed her lips, squatted down, looked up into Lin Jinqian's usual cold eyes, and said, "Mr. Lin, I know it's useless to say anything. I will pay attention to my behavior in the future and won't cause you any trouble."

Lin Jinqian lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at her indifferently, his eyes were deep and obscure, and he remained silent.

"If the old man asks, I will go personally—"

"What is your identity?" Lin Jinqian asked coldly.

Mu Li was speechless. In Lin's family, although she was used to the title of "Mrs. Lin", it was only passed on among several big families. To the outside world, this title was empty and would soon belong to Ling Shu. , is not recognized by the Lin family.

"Muli, what is the reason you stay in Rongcheng? I won't say anything, but it doesn't mean others won't. In addition, I said stay away from Xiaoxi, I hope you can remember it, similar to the situation last night , I don’t want to have any more.”

It was much harder for Lin Jinqian to speak, but he left the warning and left the room.

Mu Li stood where he was, feeling the weight of the newspaper in his hand.

Wait, did Lin Jinqian misunderstand her?
What is the purpose of staying in Rongcheng?Didn't he think that she stayed here to start over with Lin Yisheng?
Thinking of this, Mu Li smiled wryly, put the single page of the newspaper into his bag, his face disappeared, Tao Hua still smiled at the spring breeze, what is worth it for a person who has changed his mind?
Lin Jinqian thinks highly of her, she is not a long-term lover, otherwise she would not have married him.

Mu Li avoided Lin Jinqian and Ling Shu who were taking Lin Xi to school together, and drove to the studio. When the engine started, Lin Xi could still hear Lin Xi's immature voice asking "where is mom?" coming from the room.

There was still a stabbing pain in her heart, but she had to get used to this kind of pain.

Less than 5 minutes after arriving at the studio, the originally orderly environment suddenly became chaotic, and Gu Wenchen was heard screaming, and messy footsteps ran towards Mu Li's office.

The oxygen beauty at the front desk grabbed her door frame and said out of breath, "Sister Mu, you, you go to the parking lot, Teacher Gu has already run away, you go!"

Mu Li picked up the car keys on the table. Affected by the morning newspaper, he was still not in the mood, so he got up slowly, "Did something happen?"

"I don't know very well, but just now Teacher Gu answered a phone call and everything went into chaos. It seems that something... the criminal committed suicide."

Mu Li was shocked, his eyes widened in horror, the image of the middle-aged man sitting opposite her talking to himself, and the words he left in her ear——

We are all scapegoats.

Suicide, is that the man?

"Sister Mu, don't be in a daze! Hurry up and follow! Teacher Gu is still waiting for you!" Seeing her dazed look, the oxygen beauty jumped anxiously, strode to her side, and pushed her out of work. room, stuffed into the elevator.

Mu Li stood in the middle of the elevator, and when the elevator descended, she felt groggy and dizzy, and the cramped space carried a heavy sense of oppression, as if dragging her into an abyss of eternal doom, and those gloomy memories began to surge .

The elevator door opened, and she ran out as if fleeing, covering her mouth to suppress the feeling of nausea, feeling a little more comfortable, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Wenchen holding the phone in his hand, holding the car roof with one hand and making a call with a frown.

"He died suddenly. I can't help but suspect that there is a bigger secret in the murder case five years ago—"

Bigger secret?
Mu Li stood up straight and took a deep breath. There was indeed a bigger secret, but it was also a secret that could not be touched.

The suspect is dead. Will she continue to dig into the secret five years ago?
