Chapter 318: Mo Jiangye’s Family Background

What the heck?!

She had discovered that her husband had been getting increasingly more shameless and narcissistic these days. He liked to sing his own praises in her presence and, at times, would also get her to join in and shower him with compliments.

As she nestled against his chest, he stroked her long hair softly and said, “Neither Lin Jingxuan nor I are descendants of the Lin Family.”

Feeling drained of energy, Ye Erruo reached for a fruit that was on the bedside table and started munching on it. “Neither of you is his biological grandchild? Then why is he so fond of you?”

“As I said, I’m far better than that piece of trash in every aspect.”

“Then, his parents…”

Mo Jiangye furrowed his brows. “They’re dead.”

“How do you know?”

He glimpsed down at her. “Because it was my doing.”

His answer surprised her. She lifted her head to look at him with her beautiful, big eyes. “You killed them?”

The woman shifted her body and lay sprawled on his chest as she stared at him, seemingly eager for him to continue his story.

“Are you that curious?”

She nodded in response.

Alas, he only tugged the quilt upward to cover her body before saying, “This involved my late mother. The sun is coming up soon. Get some sleep quickly.”

It was obvious that he did not wish to speak about it.

This was, however, the first time Ye Erruo had heard the man mention his mother. Despite the rumors that he had been adopted by the Lins, things did not seem as simple as that. Does he know who his mother was?

She let out a sigh. Knowing that her husband was reluctant to share his secret with her, she did not force him against his wishes.

A glint flashed across Mo Jiangye’s eyes as he took a long look at the conflicted woman in his embrace before eventually relenting. “My mother, who was a foreigner, was carrying me when she came here. She was Old Master Lin’s goddaughter. Not long after staying with the Lins, she brought home a man named Lin Zhengye, who treated her… very well.”

Perking up, the woman obediently lay in his arms and listened to his story.

“When I was five, Lin Zhenghua brought another woman and son back home.”

“Was that mother-son duo Lin Jingxuan and his mother?”

The man hummed in acknowledgment in his husky voice.

“My mom died because of that woman, so I had those two sent to prison. I was eight that year.” There was no expression on his face as he revealed this to her.

Ye Erruo sucked her lips as curious questions flooded her mind.

Mo Jiangye’s mother was already pregnant with him when she first came here? So who is his father?

Why did his pregnant mother come here alone?

Since Old Master Lin is the head of the family, why would he permit Lin Zhengye to bring the mistress home?

How did Lin Jingxuan become the eldest young master of the household?

After all, Lin Zhengye was the true outsider. Why would Old Master Lin say that Mo Jiangye is the adopted one instead?

“That imbecile Lin Jingxuan had only just learned how to walk when he first came to the Lin Residence. One day, while my mother and I were watering flowers in the garden, Lin Jingxuan accidentally fell on his own and broke his skull. His mother accused mine of pushing her son down. Old Master Lin wasn’t around that day, so Lin Zhengye boldly used violence against my mother.”

Her husband told her this story as though it had nothing to do with him. There was not a single ripple of expression on his face.

“Ever since that woman had arrived, my mother had never had a day of peace. She even eventually stupidly died in that woman’s hands without knowing anything. I couldn’t stand seeing her be so stupid, so I helped her deal with that adulterous couple and sent them to hell to keep her company.”

Ye Erruo fell silent. She was stupefied by the way he had described his mother as stupid…
