Chapter 437: Past Life (2)

Zhao Youlin’s voice was not loud, but it gave people a feeling that she was determined to burn her bridges. And from the beginning to the end, Zhao Youlin did not move her eyes away from Mu Tingfeng’s eyes. She was looking straight and simple into Mu Tingfeng’s eyes, as if she wanted to see through his mind from his eyes.

Unfortunately, Zhao Youlin was disappointed. From the time she started talking to the end, Mu Tingfeng’s gaze on Zhao Youlin never changed.

His gaze was clean yet sharp, clear yet profound. It was so complicated to the point that people simply could not see through what he was thinking in his mind.

Time passed little by little. Every minute and every second was a torture for Zhao Youlin.

Once, she thought that after dying once, she became able to care less about what anyone in this world thought about her and she would only live this life for herself alone.

But she overestimated herself after all. She cared. She cared about what many people thought of her, especially about this matter.

Before it was Duan Yarong, Zhao Shunrong and Joy, and now even this man in front of her.

People, only when they truly got emotionally invested, would they feel that they care.

So, unknowingly, this man had already had such a great influence on her?

She did not expect that she would lose control of her heart one day. Zhao Youlin thought to herself in a self-deprecating manner.

Just when Zhao Youlin thought that Mu Tingfeng was so surprised by what she told him that he could not speak, and when she was disappointed and felt sad, when she planned to walk away, Mu Tingfeng suddenly said something, “If you were her, do you think I would still fall in love with you?”

“What?” Zhao Youlin was dumbfounded. She wanted to look up to see Mu Tingfeng’s expression, but she was suddenly pulled by a familiar strong force. She stumbled and fell straight into someone’s embrace.

“Mu…” Zhao Yulin steadied herself and tried to get away from Mu Tingfeng’s embrace hastily.

Mu Tingfeng, however, went ahead and held her tightly in his arms. He whispered into her ears, ” I have been… waiting for you to tell me.”

Tell me yourself who you really were, tell me in person everything about your past without hiding anything, tell me about yourself without any reservation. And now, she finally told him.

The magnetic and tempting voice echoed in her ears, making her want to drown in it unconsciously. But the content of the words made Zhao Youlin feel like her head seemed to be struck by something heavy.

It took her a long time to recover herself. She stiffened up and pulled away slightly from Mu Tingfeng. “You… What did you say?”

Mu Tingfeng did not answer, but Zhao Youlin clearly saw a hint of a smile in his eyes. Seeing his expression, Zhao Youlin had a speculation. “Did you… already know?”

Mu Tingfeng heaved a sigh. Then, he reached out and touched Zhao Youlin’s face. He smiled and said, “To put it bluntly, those tricks of yours to cover up the truth are really lame.”

Zhao Youlin had envisioned countless of Mu Tingfeng’s possible reactions after he knew about her identity. Whether it was shocked to the point that he became dumbfounded, or scared by the supernatural phenomenon that she told him to the point that his face became pale and he would speak harshly to her, she had thought about all the possibilities.

But she had not thought of this possibility, the possibility that Mu Tingfeng had known about it long ago. He actually knew about it long ago!

Zhao Youlin’s mood went up and down, tumbling violently. It was only after a long time that she squeezed out a sentence with difficulty, “When… did you replace out?”

Mu Tingfeng pondered for a moment and said honestly, “I only confirmed it when I was injured and hospitalized last time.”

“Injured and hospitalized?” Zhao Youlin’s expression changed again. He actually already knew about it at that time?

And, he had confirmed about it at that time. So since when did he become suspicious of her?

Seeming to see through what Zhao Youlin had in mind, Mu Tingfeng furrowed his brow and took the initiative to explain, “You are not the same as her. You are very different.”

Zhao Youlin was stunned and vaguely knew who Mu Tingfeng was referring to.

“From the first moment I saw you, I knew you were different from her. You two are two completely different people. She would never be this condescending to me. Even if I ignore her, she would only lash out at her family, she would not dare to disrespect me even a little. But at that time, I had not thought of that side, and then your document fell into my hands…”

It took Zhao Youlin quite some time to recall what document Mu Tingfeng was talking about. It was the information of the police station personnel that she had asked the detective agency to look for her.

At that time, she did good deeds and ended up having their document bags… swapped.

Mu Tingfeng continued, “Also, here’s a very important point, as the eldest young lady of the Zhao family, you should not be acquainted with so many people. Be it is the young master of the Luo family, or Officer Muchen from the police station, those are not the people that the former Zhao Youlin can be familiar with.”

Zhao Youlin did not reply, because she knew that what Mu Tingfeng said was true. As the eldest young lady of the Zhao family, it was true that there was no way she could be involved with Muchen and Luo Weibing, because only police officer Zhao Youlin could know those people.

Lies like this, no matter how you tried to cover up and conceal it, you could never really do it flawlessly and conceal it from the world.

Zhao Youlin pursed her lips and said in a muffled voice, “You had such a bad relationship with Zhao Youlin before. You shouldn’t know much about what kind of people she engaged with and what kind of people she knew.”

“That’s right.” Mu Tingfeng replied without holding anything back. And then, he stared into Zhao Youlin’s eyes and said seriously, “If you were still the previous eldest young lady of the Zhao family, I wouldn’t care what kind of people you were engaged with and what kind of people you knew, but you are not here.”

Zhao Youlin was a little stunned. She looked into Mu Tingfeng’s profound eyes that were determined and sincere, somehow, she began to understand what Mu Tingfeng had said in the beginning.

If she was still the previous eldest young lady of the Zhao family, Mu Tingfeng’s attitude toward her could not have changed at all.

Just like the first time they met, he had been indifferent and even elated when she wanted to leave. He would never have the desire to ask her to stay.

Because it was her, the man in front of her started to realize it and changed his attitude toward her. He got close to her, asked her to stay, and courted her again.

Because it was her, the man in front of her put aside all the doubts in his mind and did his best to understand everything about her. He dug out all the secrets she hid under the surface.

Because it was her, the man in front of her repeatedly insisted on remarrying her. He wanted to give himself and her a chance to start over.

From the very beginning, this man saw only her in his eyes and heart, the real her. He never mistook her for anyone else.

Realizing this, Zhao Youlin’s heart fluttered hard. A strange and warm feeling seemed to run out from her heart like a stream, warming her body and mind.
