I was shocked to find out that the "Aunt Cheng" Li Yunzhou mentioned was Cheng Jia, who was imprisoned for theft a few years ago.

I have already done some research on this matter.

Cheng Jia stole the Li family's valuable jewelry while working as a domestic servant. Later, the whereabouts of the jewelry were unknown. Mr. Li was so angry that he called the police and sent Cheng Jia to prison.

But Li Yunzhou's statement is obviously different from what I investigated.

"Because of you?" I looked at him in surprise, it was hard to understand for a while.

Li Yunzhou nodded and continued: "Aunt Cheng did not steal the Li family's jewelry back then, but she wanted to help me get back my mother's dowry."

"Aunt Cheng grew up with my mother. Although the relationship was obviously master and servant, she was like a sister. My mother got pregnant soon after she married into the Li family, so Aunt Cheng came with her to take care of me. Later, I

My parents passed away in an accident, and Aunt Cheng couldn't worry about me at a young age, so she decided to stay in the Li family to take care of me."

"When I was growing up, many memories about my mother were told to me by Aunt Cheng. Therefore, I was able to construct a flexible image of myself in my mind. She was a gentle and generous woman who loved me very much, even if

He cared about me even at the last moment of his life." Li Yunzhou spoke softly and revealed his past to me.

I listened quietly as he recalled his mother, and the anticipation and sadness in his eyes disturbed my heartstrings.

Li Yunzhou lost his parents when he was young. Mr. Li treated him harshly and failed to give him the love of his relatives.

He suffered a lot, so he gradually became an iceberg in the eyes of outsiders.

"As long as I can remember, I've known that the Li family is very rich, but it's just rich." He smiled helplessly and recalled, "Since I started school, there have been classmates who have learned that my parents have died.

Teasing and teasing me. I didn’t care at first, but one day in the third grade of elementary school, my deskmate suddenly asked me in a low voice, ‘Why don’t you have parents?’ ‘Are you a bastard?’”

"At that moment, I was furious. I thought he had offended my parents. I beat him up in class in front of the teacher. In the end, my grandfather put him in solitary confinement for three days because of this incident," Li Yunzhou said.

At this point, he smiled at me again.

His smile makes me sad.

"Didn't you explain it clearly to grandpa? It's not your fault." I asked him in a low voice.

He shook his head and said calmly: "There is nothing to explain. Even if I tell the truth, grandpa will only ask me why I can't bear it, and then make a foolproof plan to fight back."

I was stunned. Mr. Li had dominated the business world for decades when he was young. He indeed had such unusual methods.

Perhaps it was also because of Mr. Li's "training" that he became the Mr. Li that no one dares to underestimate in the capital.

I pursed my lips, feeling very uncomfortable for a moment, and murmured: "Three days of confinement, when you were under ten years old, grandpa was too cruel..."

For three days, he was not allowed to eat and could only drink water. This was undoubtedly torture for a growing child.

"Fortunately, I have Aunt Cheng." Li Yunzhou said, "She will bring me food secretly, and then talk to me and tell me about my mother's past."

I can finally understand Li Yunzhou's feelings for Cheng Jia.

For young Li Yunzhou, Cheng Jia was the light in his life.

Although Cheng Jia was not his mother, she gave him mother-like love.

"Aunt Cheng is very kind." I agreed softly, and when I raised my eyes, I met Li Yunzhou's eyes.

He looked at me deeply, his eyes trembling a little, and then said: "Well, Aunt Cheng is too kind. That's why after learning that grandpa was going to take the 'Zhuyun' to a charity sale, she actually thought of stealing it."

"Zhuyun?" I asked in surprise.

Li Yunzhou explained: "Zhuyun is my mother's dowry, a priceless jade bracelet."

I was very puzzled: "Since it is your mother's dowry, why did grandpa sell it for charity? Why did Aunt Cheng take such an extreme approach?"

"Grandpa always believed that my mother caused the car accident that year. He thought it was my mother who killed my father." Li Yunzhou said in a deep voice, "The in-car recording that was retrieved afterwards was restored and processed to create an audio clip.

, my mother was quarreling with my father before the car accident happened."

My eyes widened in shock, and I didn't know what to say for a moment.

Li Yunzhou paused and said hoarsely: "Although that audio can't prove anything, grandpa hated my mother because of it. Five years ago, I returned from studying abroad and took over the Li family. I wanted to ask grandpa for Zhuyun back. After all,

That was the only relic left by my mother to me. But my grandfather told me that he had publicly promised to sell Zhuyun for charity. If he goes back on his word at the moment, it will have an impact on the Li family's reputation."

"I didn't want to have a conflict with him. I wanted to wait until the charity sale started and then find a way to capture the beads. But I didn't expect Aunt Cheng to be so impatient. She went to steal the beads without consulting me," Li Yunzhou said.

.

I roughly know what happened later. Cheng Jia succeeded in stealing, but was found out.

After Li Yunzhou learned about it, he went to ask Mr. Li for mercy. Mr. Li asked Cheng Jia to hand over Zhu Yun, but Cheng Jia refused. Mr. Li called the police in anger.

I asked him: "Do you have that pearl cloud in your hand now?"

I thought that since Cheng Jia had stolen Zhuyun, he would definitely hand it over to him.

Unexpectedly, Li Yunzhou shook his head and sighed: "If she is handed over to me, I can exchange it with grandpa for her freedom. I still can't figure out why Aunt Cheng would rather go to jail than tell me Zhu Yun

Where."

I was very surprised. I didn't know Cheng Jia, and I couldn't guess her motive for doing this.

However, through Li Yunzhou's description, one thing is certain, Cheng Jia is not a money-grubbing person.

In the blink of an eye, five years are coming, and Cheng Jia will be released from prison in a few months. I comforted Li Yunzhou: "When Aunt Cheng is released from prison, maybe the truth will come out."

"I hope so." He nodded with a heavy face, then suddenly raised his eyes and looked directly at me without saying a word.

I was shocked: "What are you looking at me for?"

"Ruan Shi, why don't you take the initiative to ask me?" he said inexplicably.

"What?" I was almost completely confused by him.

"About the relationship between Jiang Jin and me." He said with a serious look on his face and frowned, "Don't you always want to know?"

I was stunned and subconsciously retorted: "When did I say I wanted to know?"

I couldn't help complaining in my heart, why didn't he call Jiang Jin "Ajin" now?

In the past, wasn't it quite affectionate to call everyone "Ajin" every time?

"Really don't want to know?" Li Yunzhou was standing next to me. At this time, he suddenly leaned over and came closer to me, kissed my lips like a dragonfly, raised his eyebrows and said, "My mouth is quite soft, how can I say it?"
