The breeze blew past the field. Qingshan cemetery was just right across them and they could sense the quietness from afar.

Mu Yuchen took some time before replying to Gu Qiwu, “I only found out that Gu Lingsha was pregnant afterward, but it seems like you already knew about it a long time ago.”

His eyes turned cold suddenly as he looked at the older man. “The last time we met, you mentioned that you wanted Gu Lingsha to marry me in order to eliminate Doris’s suspicion of you.”

“That’s right. That’s what I originally intended. I was fully prepared back then. Either Qi Feng and you could work. I was more inclined towards you, so Doris started taking action the night you agreed to stay over. She genuinely hoped for Lingsha and you to be together. That’s why she did what she did.

“However, we never expected you to get Lingtian to replace you. I had no idea until the butler told me about it. I know how Lingtian felt towards Lingsha, so I feel uneasy when I was reminded of Doris’s intention. I’m worried that bad things might happen, so I quickly gave Lingtian a call and told him to leave the Gu residence and visit me. I wanted him to call you back, but I didn’t expect him to call Qi Feng right after that…”

Gu Qiwu put on a bitter smile. “It might’ve just been fate. Qi Feng came over that night and they just happened to be together after that. Doris thought I had no idea what happened, but I knew full well. Alas, there was no way I could say a word about it. I also lied to Lingtian that there were some misunderstandings between Doris and me, and I told him to not tell anyone about me calling him. Otherwise, the secret I’ve been keeping for so long would have been exposed.”

“This matter would have gone by without anyone noticing. Even if you didn’t like Lingsha, I suppose you wouldn’t mistreat her if she married you. I was sure you’d grant her wish if she requested to join Glory World although I know you don’t fully trust her. However, all of that didn’t really matter because Lingtian was part of Glory World at that time. I’m sure the two of them would’ve been able to rise to a powerful position within Glory World, and then I’d have waited for an appropriate moment before revealing to Lingtian that I’m his biological father. He’s been having a good impression of me after all, so perhaps I’ll get his support that way…”

“However, you didn’t expect your plan to fail because of me. Instead, you matchmade Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha. You also didn’t expect Gu Lingsha to be pregnant with Qi Feng’s child, but you didn’t want to let this chance slip away, and you didn’t want Doris to be suspicious either, which is why you still made Gu Lingsha marry me. Weren’t you worried about me finding out?” Mu Yuchen’s expression was icy cold.

“I already thought of a contingency plan to abort the child…I just didn’t expect Qi Feng to pry on Lingsha. I wanted Lingsha to stay put and take action later, but they freaked out when they found out about their children. Plus, you have eyes all around, so they were worried that it might get exposed. Shasha took the info from you following Qi Feng’s encouragement.”

Gu Qiwu took a deep breath as his grip on the railing tightened. “She was caught in the end, thus she panicked and ran away with Qi Feng. Of course, your subordinates wouldn’t let them get away so easily. That’s why Qi Feng asked Lingtian for help! Lingtian had totally fallen for Lingsha by that time, and he couldn’t bear to see Lingsha be caught by you. In addition to his friendship with Qi Feng, he told Lingtian that Lingsha was pregnant. He also promised Lingtian that he would support him to lead Glory World in the future…”

“I know about this part, but what happened after that?” Mu Yuchen’s face turned slightly pale.

He did not want to believe it. He did not want to believe that Mu Lingtian had betrayed him just to take Glory World away, but it seemed like benefits and feelings weighed more than his family…

“Tragedy happened in the process of your pursuit…Lingtian was already dead when he shielded Lingsha with his body. It was only then that I realized how much Lingtian loved Lingsha. Although I was in deep grief, there was nothing I could do. I told Doris what happened and eliminated her doubts. I couldn’t be angry at you as well. Lingtian was from the Mu family after all, so I could only endure the anger within myself.”

“I hate you! You are responsible for Lingtian’s death.” Suddenly, Gu Qiwu gave him a sharp glance. “I hate your intelligence and how you skipped the normal path. Things would’ve turned out differently if you married Lingsha earlier. Lingtian wouldn’t have fallen in love with his own sister, and even paid for it with his life.”

“Are you blaming it all on me now?” Mu Yuchen put on a sly smile as he looked into his cold eyes. “Don’t speak as if you’re doing everything for Lingtian and Lingshi’s sake! The fact that you’re using your children as your gambling chips disqualifies you as a father!”

“I’ve been trying my best to get them back into the Gu family, but, Ah Chen, you of all people should understand my situation!”

“You’re just giving excuses. If you’re really worried about Doris, why do you tolerate her to this extent?” Mu Yuchen’s voice had zero warmth.

“If Xi Xiaye acted like Doris and constantly plotted to take Glory World away from you, I believe you’d make the same choices as me! I want to get away from her, but I can’t forget my feelings for her! Ah Chen, I admit that I have disappointed your aunt, but the woman I truly love is Doris. I wish it wasn’t real. I too wish that it was just an illusion—”

Gu Qiwu seemed to be suffering.

“Shut up!”
