978: I Have Been Set Up

I Have Been Set Up

Xie Xuning and Ye Qingcang were out very early in the morning.0

Ye Linlang asked, "Has your father gone out?"

Ye Tianxian answered, "Yes, he went out, but they should be home shortly."

She looked at the watch on her wrist. They should be back soon. She wondered if Xie Xuning would sincerely thank Shi Han and Zeus.

In a courtyard in the capital, Shi Han and Zues were receiving the two guests, Xie Xuining and Li Qingcang. They were perplexed knowing why they came.

Xie Xuning was unusually friendly.

"Xie Xuning, why are you here so early?"

Shi Han was still in his blue pajamas. He lounged on the couch as he sat across Xie Xuning.

"I'm here to thank you and apologize for my attitude in the past."

Xie Xuning was upfront and direct. He did not seem the least bit embarrassed.

He viewed Shin Han with such envy in the past, but he was only human. He had suspected that Mo'er was Shi Han's child and hence, bore a grudge against him.

Now, it was different.

Xie Xuning's heart was filled with gratitude and thankfulness for Shi Han after learning about Ye Linlang's condition.

"Thank you for saving Linlang in the past and treating her so well. Thank you..."

Shi Han interrupted him. "Xie Xuning, let's get straight to the point. Be a man and don't beat around the bush. Otherwise, I will think you are laying a trap for me."

Xie Xuning was sitting opposite Shi Han. He looked at Shi Han intently and asked, "I want to know who the eye witnesses were back then?"

"Do you mean the witnesses of the car accident?"

Xie Xuning nodded and said, "Back then, I was away on a mission. Something had cropped up in the course of duty and I was not able to come back as scheduled. It was a long time before I finally came home for a review. I had asked my friend to look for Linlang during that time..."

Upon hearing that, Shi Han and Zeus frowned with somber expressions.

Xie Xuning recalled, "My friend came back and told me that Linlang had passed away. Her mother had also died of grief. Later, I made a trip to Linlang's hometown and stayed there for 3 days. I then had her grave moved to the capital. All the while, I thought Linlang had really died.

It was only when I met Tianxin and suspected that she might be my daughter. I retrieved Linlang's ashes from the grave and did a DNA test with them. The data did not match those of Linlang. I also performed a DNA test with Tianxin and discovered that she is indeed my daughter."

Xie Xuning relayed the entire event to the two men. He had no reason to distrust Shi Han and Zeus or believe that they bore any ill will.

Zeus raised his eyebrows and asked, "What happened after Tianxin was kidnapped? Did you find out who was behind it?"

"We found the apparent kidnapper. However, Lu Jijun and QIn Lili, who were close with Linlang, were both dead. All my leads have led to nothing. It all happened 20 years ago, and it will be difficult to start investigating all over again..."

Shi Han frowned, "Do you think someone wants to harm Xie Yi on purpose? If so, would she be precarious if she stays by your side? I think I should bring her away with me..."

"Shi Han, don't be rash. Why don't you hear what Xie Xuning has to say?"

Zeus did not expect the issue between Xie Xuning and Xie Yi to be so complicated.
