Chapter 661 Malicious Suspicion

Chapter 661 Malicious Suspicion

"Is it really over?" Qin Luofeng asked, looking at him. "I feel jealous when I see Grandpa favoring you, let alone Mom and Dad."

"You're jealous only because Grandpa's favoritism is driven by power and interests," Qin Mo said bluntly, his thin lips barely moving. "It's not simply love."

Qin Luofeng: "Is that how you think of me?"

Qin Mo: "Isn't that right?"

Qin Luofeng wanted to refute.

But upon closer reflection, it is indeed true.

"When you see your parents being nice to you, do you feel that kind of emotion?"

"No." Qin Mo truly wouldn't. "I'll strive for what I want, but as for other things, I can't force them."

If he still cares about these things.

Otherwise, we wouldn't be where we are today.

Call him heartless or indifferent if you will.

After he officially took over the things his grandfather had entrusted to him, he became increasingly indifferent to his parents' affairs, going from initial hope to resentment, disappointment, and finally to complete numbness.

Success and power can be addictive.

"Not even a little bit?" Qin Luofeng asked.

"As long as they don't interfere in my affairs, I can treat them as parents without any emotional ties," Qin Mo said coldly. "But if they forcibly interfere, then they are outsiders."

He will respect it.

Because of the grace of giving birth to me.

But that's all.

"Are you referring to Lin Tan when you say 'forceful interference'?" Qin Luofeng guessed.

Qin Mo looked at him.

Qin Luofeng looked relaxed and natural: "That's not hard to guess. I know how your parents treat you. They basically don't care about your affairs, except for your love life."

Qin Mo didn't reply.

He won't let anyone interfere in his relationships.

But Lin Tan... intended to distance herself from him.

He couldn't understand why, when she looked at him with such complex emotions on their first meeting, she had become so distant and polite after a while.

"What's her relationship with Huo Sinian?" Qin Luofeng asked, thinking about what happened at Jiang Ruan's house last time. Qin Mo had to leave in a hurry before and didn't get an answer, but now he had some free time.

Qin Mo: "It's okay."

Qin Luofeng thought about Huo Sinian's expression and words: "What he said didn't sound like it was unrelated."

Qin Mo's eyes were dark and unfathomable: "I said it's okay, and it's okay."

"Are you rivals in love?" Qin Luofeng asked, though he could tell.

Qin Mo: "No."

Lin Tan didn't like any of them.

She can't be considered a love rival.

At most, they are two people who don't like each other.

"Don't you like her?" Qin Luofeng hadn't forgotten their last conversation.

"Go see how Mom and Dad's talk went," Qin Mo said casually, changing the subject.

Qin Luofeng chuckled softly.

Qin Mo looked at him, puzzled.

"It seems your future sister-in-law doesn't like you at all," Qin Luofeng guessed based on her words and actions.

Qin Mo: "..."

Qin Luofeng: "Why didn't I see you chasing after them?"

Qin Mo: "Is this how you usually are?"

Qin Luofeng: "?"

Qin Luofeng examined himself: "What's wrong with this? Is it bad?"

"It's no wonder you're not successful enough in your career," Qin Mo retorted. "If you spend all your time on trivial matters, it's no wonder you don't achieve anything."

“It’s not something trivial,” Qin Luofeng said.

Qin Mo glanced sideways.

Qin Luofeng looked at him seriously and said, "Your matters are not insignificant."

Qin Mo: "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Qin Luofeng exhaled a breath of stale air: "I think I finally took the right medicine this time."

If his brother hadn't taken him to apologize to his aunt and get a letter of forgiveness, he might still be stuck in his past beliefs and continue on his way with a heavy burden.

To do things against one's conscience with one's father.

Or perhaps... in that state, he didn't feel guilty.

"Thank you." He looked at Qin Mo, feeling a sense of relief.

Qin Mo felt that he was acting strangely tonight.

But I didn't think much of it.

As long as you don't cause trouble or go looking for problems, he doesn't care what you do.

"Send a message to Mom and ask how the talks went." Qin Mo frowned involuntarily, thinking about Qin Muchuan's personality.

Qin Luofeng said "okay".

Just as I was about to take out my phone to send the message, I saw Yu Peiyun's call coming in.

The moment the call connected, Yu Peiyun's voice came through asking, "Where did you go? We've looked everywhere but can't find you."

"My brother and I are on the balcony upstairs," Qin Luofeng said calmly. "Have you talked it over with Dad?"

Yu Peiyun: "His personality makes him difficult to talk to."

Qin Luofeng paused.

Although it was expected, it was still somewhat unexpected.

“But it’s alright, Qin Mo can do whatever he wants,” Yu Peiyun said, her tone rather quiet.

Qin Luofeng: "Okay."

Yu Peiyun was thinking about something, and after considering it carefully, she still asked, "Is he next to you?"

Qin Luofeng looked at Qin Mo: "Here."

Yu Peiyun's feelings were mixed: "Go away, I have something to ask you."

Qin Luofeng's hand holding the phone paused unconsciously.

Before he could even look over, Qin Mo had already left.

The phone was ringing quite loudly.

Not to mention they weren't standing that far away to begin with.

They all heard it naturally.

"He's my brother, what's wrong with listening to him?" Qin Luofeng felt uneasy. If he were treated like this, even though he was now the president of the Qin Group and the heir favored by his grandfather, he probably wouldn't feel good either.

"What's wrong with you, child?" Yu Peiyun frowned. "You never used to say these things."

Qin Luofeng was stunned.

My mind is filled with memories of the past.

It seems that's indeed the case...

"Could it be that you've really been brainwashed by him and are now on his side?" Yu Peiyun didn't want Qin Luofeng and Qin Mo to have a good relationship. They could pretend to be close, but Luofeng absolutely couldn't be on Qin Mo's side.

He's going to side with Qin Mo now, and he definitely won't side with them anymore.

"What's this talk about taking sides when we're family?" Qin Luofeng's voice was calm, and no one noticed anything unusual.

"You don't understand." Yu Peiyun didn't elaborate. "Have you gone far?"

Qin Luofeng: "Brother is gone."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Yu Peiyun paused for a moment, but it disappeared instantly: "That's good. I just wanted to ask you, is the butler really in Li Zhishen's hands?"

She had just tried to call the housekeeper to confirm the situation, but the call didn't go through.

I asked other people, but they didn't know where he went either.

"Yes." Qin Luofeng, unusually, sided with Qin Mo and lied for him. "When has my brother ever lied?"

“I’m just worried that he might deliberately help Qin An and the others to mess with your father.” Yu Peiyun sighed. “Now, the Qin family’s shares are basically all in Jiang Ruan’s hands. As the president of the Qin Group, it’s not impossible for him to want to get along with Jiang Ruan.”

Qin Luofeng's throat felt dry and sore.

This moment.

He realized more deeply than ever before the malice his parents harbored towards Qin Mo.

Mingming has tried so hard to be good to this family, yet he has been met with such suspicion in return.

Even my past self.

That seems to be the case.

I always doubt his motives and whether his intentions are pure.

But he never really stood on his aunt's side from beginning to end; at most, he remained neutral.
