Chapter 519 Don’t hide it anymore.
Just when Li Jiu was confused, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "Xiao Jiu?"
Mr. Li stood by the door and looked at Li Jiu with some surprise. When his eyes fell on the things she was holding, his expression changed slightly, but it was just a fleeting moment.
He asked as usual: "Why did you come here?"
Li Jiu lowered his eyes, curled his expression in his eyes, put the newspaper back to its original place, and replied as if nothing had happened: "I want to chat with you."
"oh?"
Mr. Li raised his eyebrows in surprise. She was very indifferent and rarely took the initiative to chat with someone.
"What are you talking about?"
He walked up to him, folded the newspaper and put it away, and sat down slowly, making people unable to see any abnormality.
Li Jiu raised her head, met his gaze, and asked in a gentle tone: "Grandpa, are you hiding anything from me?"
Mr. Li paused and his eyes flashed lightly. He thought she had discovered something. He did not answer directly, but asked back: "Why do you say so?"
"You don't seem to be surprised since my identity was revealed," she said.
To be precise, except for the surprise and astonishment expression he had expressed at that cocktail party when President Liu announced it himself, he did not seem to have any excessive reactions at other times.
Very calm.
Just like he did not continue to investigate after the mother and daughter were buried in the fire.
It was as if he was deliberately hiding something.
A light flashed through Li Jiu's eyes.
Although she had probably had guesses in her heart based on her recent performances, she still wanted to hear him say it in person.
Mr. Li chuckled, "I have suspected your identity before, and Lao Liu also knew me before the identification. Isn't it natural to be surprised?"
"Then have you ever doubted it?"
Mr. Li: "What?"
"I doubted why I survived that fire, where my mother went, and, do you know who was behind the scenes back then?"
Li Jiu looked at him with a calm expression, but what he asked was like throwing a bombshell.
Mr. Li's expression froze immediately, and then sighed: "I originally... didn't want to mention these things so soon."
At this point, he and Li Chen had the same view. They had just recognized Li Jiu in a true sense. They knew nothing about her experience over the years. If they rashly mentioned the past events, they might remind her of unpleasant things.
Therefore, they decided to keep silent and ask when the time is right.
Li Jiu curled his lips slightly and said, "I understand your hard work, but there is no need. I am not as fragile as you think, so you don't have to worry too much."
Her eyes were staring at Mr. Li, "Grandpa, put aside the factors that worries about me, do you have no other concerns?"
Mr. Li said nothing.
She continued: "I can feel that you are avoiding the things of that year, and even don't even want to mention them."
Mr. Li sighed: "Xiao Jiu..."
His shoulders were slightly loose and his expression seemed to have grown a lot, and a feeling of powerlessness surged into his heart.
Li Jiu did not intend to give up, and still asked relentlessly: "Since I don't want to mention it, why should I pay attention to that murder case? How much do you know?"
Mr. Li's face suddenly changed, his pupils trembled slightly, and he looked at her in shock: "Do you know?"
Li Jiu nodded: "Well, I know."
"I know more than you think, so please don't hide it anymore."
Mr. Li looked at her, pursed his lips tightly, and his face was heavy, not knowing what to say.
That's right, she is the boss of MZ, and the head of the Mo family, and it's impossible for her to have no idea about what happened back then. That's ridiculous.
He sighed and shook his head.
Unexpectedly, he buried this secret in his heart for decades, and even Li Chen and others didn't tell him, but was repeatedly questioned by his granddaughter.
This is all fate.
