Qin Che clenched his fists tightly. 

Qin Canglan continued, “You may not know this, but Hua Yin and I once had a fierce argument over some trivial matters. In a moment of anger, she threatened to take the child away, let him take her surname, and even gave him a new name.”

Qin Che lowered his eyes, “My memories before six years old…… are fragmented.” 

Qin Canglan completely ignored what he said, “Back then, I should have asked you, do you still remember the name your mother gave you?”

Hearing this, Qin Che suddenly laughed.

“Father… You’re doubting me just because of a name? I remember so many things, and I just forgot one name that never even got used!”

Qin Canglan growled angrily, “That name was only known by the three of us!”

Qin Che sneered, “So, that person told you the name? Who can guarantee that it wasn’t overheard through a wall? Maybe a servant heard and passed it on!”

Qin Canglan’s brows furrowed, “That person? I never once mentioned that the real Qin Che had appeared, until now.”

Qin Che froze. 

Qin Canglan’s gaze grew colder and more menacing, “You’ve seen him, haven’t you? You knew it, and yesterday… you deliberately sent me away, didn’t you?”

Panic flashed across Qin Che’s face, “Father……”

Qin Canglan stood up and walked toward him step by step, “What are you trying to do?”

Qin Che retreated until his back hit the wall, “Father, please listen… I can explain, I… Ahh!”

A sharp gasp.

Qin Canglan grabbed him by the throat.

Something was off with Qin Canglan.

Or more accurately, ever since he learned the truth, he’d been teetering on the edge of emotional collapse.

And now, that last thread of reason had finally snapped.

Qin Che felt death creeping in.

He couldn’t believe that the man who had raised him for twenty years would truly try to kill him.

The rumors weren’t wrong, Qin Canglan really was the coldest, most ruthless Lord Yama* of the Great Zhou.

*Lord Yama : King of Hell

“Father… you can’t kill me…”

“I… I’m also your… biological son…”

That same day, the streets were a bit congested.

Carriages inched forward intermittently, frequently stalling altogether, stuck in traffic. 

Su Mo lifted the curtain and glanced outside, then turned to Su Xiaoxiao and asked, “Do you want to stop at a teahouse for a bit?”

“No need.” Su Xiaoxiao replied.

Su Mo let the curtain fall again.

The carriage remained quietly stuck halfway, surrounded by noisy crowds. 

Inside the carriage, it was so silent you could hear them breathing.

Perhaps to break that strange silence, Su Mo spoke softly, “I’ve told you before that my grandaunt and grandaunt’s husband had a very good relationship.”

“What about it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Su Mo hesitated, “There’s something else I never told you. I overheard it by accident, and I’m not sure if it was true or not.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Sure, go ahead.”

“When my grandaunt’s husband was young, he once……”

At that point, Su Mo trailed off, the words stuck in his throat. 

Su Xiaoxiao finished the sentence for him: “Had another woman?”

As a man, gossiping about this kind of thing to a young lady made Su Mo feel a bit awkward and embarrassed.

He braced himself and said, “It was his distant cousin from his mother’s side. Her family had fallen on hard times, and she came to the capital seeking help from the Qin family. Back then, the old madam, my grandaunt’s husband’s mother took her in out of kindness.”

Su Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow and replied with an ‘Oh’. 

“And then the two of them became involved?”

Su Mo neither confirmed nor denied it. 

“I don’t know the exact details. I only heard that the cousin suddenly fell ill, and the old madam sent her to a countryside estate to recover. She never returned to the capital.”  　

Su Mo continued, “My grandaunt’s husband was the only legitimate son in the family. The old madam would never have allowed him to marry a distant cousin of such lowly status.” 

“So the old madam forcibly broke them apart, a classic tale of star-crossed lovers?” Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her chin thoughtfully.

“Qin Che and Qin Canglan do look somewhat alike. Could it be… that the cousin once bore Qin Canglan’s child, and Qin Che is actually her son?”
