Chapter 179 You Want Her Dead
Sun Huilan had just sat down in the chair, and before she could even settle in, that cold voice entered her ears.
This was the first thing Qin Shi had said to her since they left the hospital.
Sun Huilan paused her action of putting her bag aside, then put it down and looked at Qin Shi.
"Shi'er, what are you doing here?"
Sun Huilan had a smile on her face, a gentle, loving mother's smile.
It seemed she didn't see Qin Shi's coldness; she was an incredibly gentle mother who accepted her son no matter how rebellious he was.
Looking at this hypocritical face, if he weren't Sun Huilan's biological son, he would have thought that the person in front of him had always been like this, gentle and virtuous, a good wife and mother.
She wouldn't act like a shrew at all.
However, he was her biological son, and he had watched her argue with her father since he was a child.
Back then, she was hysterical, filled with anger and hatred, even grotesque and twisted; she was nothing like she is now.
She was completely different then and she is now, like two different people.
It seems that the Sun Huilan of the past is not her, or perhaps she doesn't exist.
She has remained the same from beginning to end, gentle and considerate to her husband, and patient and kind to her children.
But he wasn't Zhou Yi, nor his two half-sisters and brother; he had seen what she looked like with his own eyes.
Tear everything away to reveal the most authentic version of yourself.
So no matter what mask she wears now, in front of him, she is still the mother who was once full of resentment and hatred towards him.
"Where I am is not important; what's important is that you shouldn't be here."
Sun Huilan paused upon hearing his words, then smiled.
"Shi'er, why are you so silly?"
“You are my son, and Zhou Yi is my daughter. Although she is not my biological daughter, she is still my daughter in name, Sun Huilan. Now…”
"As far as I know, Zhou Jianye has been removed from the Zhou family genealogy."
Before Sun Huilan could finish speaking, Qin Shi coldly interrupted her.
He no longer called Zhou Jianye "Uncle Zhou," but addressed him by his given name.
He used to call Zhou Jianye "Uncle" only because he was Zhou Yi's biological father, and he was entitled to respect him.
But today, Zhou Jianye hit her.
He will no longer call him uncle.
He is not qualified.
Sun Huilan's smile faded.
However, she was still not angry. She just looked at Qin Shi, observed his expression carefully, and then said, "Shi'er, are you like this because of Yi Yi?"
"You and that child..."
She paused, and didn't continue.
But the suspicion in her eyes was clear.
She and Qin Shi didn't have a deep relationship. One reason was that he hadn't grown up by her side since childhood, resulting in a distant mother-son bond. Another reason was Qin Shi's naturally cold personality.
It has been since childhood.
He doesn't like to talk, doesn't like to laugh, and is cold to everyone.
Even with his two parents, he didn't show a single smile.
She and her ex-husband did not marry for love; they simply got married because they reached a certain age, their families were compatible, and they arranged a marriage.
She didn't love her ex-husband.
So it was only after getting married that she realized what kind of life she wanted.
She didn't want that mundane life; she wanted a better, more privileged life.
As a result, she argued with her ex-husband after marriage, and they argued incessantly during her pregnancy and childbirth.
And perhaps for this reason, Qin Shi was always cold from birth until he could speak and walk.
It seemed like he was born to be at odds with her; he would never give her a kind look.
She didn't like this son.
Therefore, for various reasons, she and Qin Shi had no feelings for each other.
Later, she remarried and had Jiali and Yichen. Her personality gradually changed, and she reconnected with Qin Shi.
But Qin Shi remained as cold as ever; he would respect her, but that was all.
She knew Qin Shi's personality, so she never thought anything of it.
But today, just now, in the hospital, the way Qin Shi held Zhou Yi and protected her was something she had never seen before.
care.
I care a lot.
It seems he could give up everything else, but he wanted Zhou Yi.
No one knows a son better than his mother. Although Qin Shi wasn't raised by her, she understood her son's personality.
He had never shown such concern for anything before.
Still a girl.
And this girl is Sun Huilan's stepdaughter.
At that moment, the seed of speculation was planted in Sun Huilan's heart, and it quickly took root and sprouted.
It's hard for her not to overthink it.
Faced with the suspicion in Sun Huilan's eyes, Qin Shi asked uncertainly, "What about Zhou Yi and me?"
"Go on."
He showed no sign of panic or tension, and even if Sun Huilan's guess was true, he didn't show any unusual reaction.
His consistently cold attitude made Sun Huilan increasingly uncertain.
Seeing that Qin Shi's expression was completely unreadable, Sun Huilan relaxed and smiled, "It's nothing, I was just wondering why you're so protective of Yi Yi."
"I've always known your personality; you don't protect others, I know that."
"I'm quite surprised that you're so protective of Yiyi today."
"Accident?"
Don't you think you made a mistake back then?
Upon hearing the direct question, Sun Huilan's expression changed.
Qin Shi watched as her expression changed in an instant; the real mother from before had returned.
She continued, "She interfered in someone else's family, becoming a third party, causing the other woman to have a difficult childbirth and pass away after giving birth, leaving behind an orphaned girl to grow up helpless and alone."
"People talk about cause and effect. Didn't you think about the retribution when you did those things?"
"Aren't you afraid that one day the same thing will happen to your children?"
"Of course, I am also your son by blood, but my surname is Qin, and I was raised by my father. I have no relation to you."
“I may be affected, but not as much as your two children.”
"Everything I'm doing now is simply to make amends, repay debts, and accumulate good karma."
“I will do my good, and you will do your evil. If you do not stop now, it will eventually fall on your children.”
"By then, you will regret it."
The words, cold as swords, pierced Sun Huilan's ears, each one striking her heart. An uncontrollable rage erupted in her eyes, and her entire face became twisted and ferocious.
“You…you shut up!”
Sun Huilan stood up abruptly and glared at Qin Shi. At this moment, her gentle and loving motherly demeanor was nowhere to be seen. She was filled with anger, and her whole body trembled with rage.
Qin Shi remained unmoved by Sun Huilan's change of expression, showing no intention of stopping.
"You don't come here unless you need something. Grandma's condition had been stable, but she suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage. You must be involved, right?"
"Was that scene at the hospital just now something you did intentionally?"
"Neither you nor Zhou Jianye want Grandma to live."
"Grandma is blocking your way, you..."
Qin Shi paused, then his pupils contracted slightly, and he said, slowly and deliberately, "I want her dead."
