My Youth Began With Him

“It’s not the same. The home security system at my place is very good, and I can ask the bodyguards to patrol 24/7.”

“It’s okay. I will stay with Xiaowei for a couple of days. Once things are resolved, I will return to South Hill Manor.”

Su Yu’s eyes darkened slightly. He knew that because of Qin Chu, South Hill Manor will forever be Huo Mian’s real home.

“By the way, what did you find out?” Huo Mian asked.

“On the day Qin Chu divorced you, he met with Huo Siqian in the afternoon.”

Huo Mian didn’t reply, but everything was going as to how she had imagined.

“I tracked his car. He went to the Duoqin Cove, and so did Huo Siqian. However, the security footage in that area has been tampered with. I couldn’t confirm the exact time and place, but I’m sure they met.”

“I knew it.” Huo Mian tightened her fist, fire starting to burn within her. If it wasn’t for one of Huo Siqian’s stupid tricks, Qin Chu would never suddenly ask for a divorce.

“So, I’m really curious – What did that bastard Huo Siqian say to Qin Chu? What could it possibly be that would make Qin Chu self-willingly divorce you?” Su Yu asked curiously. He knew exactly how Qin Chu felt about Huo Mian. Qin Chu loved her so much that he was willing to die for her. Therefore, him asking for divorce meant that the situation was more serious than simply dying.

“Su Yu…”

“Yes?”

“Are you able to get the security footage of Snooker Celebrity Night?”

“Yes, but what for?”

“Huo Siqian said something to Qin Chu that night that freaked him out and caused him to lose the match. I’m guessing what he said last time has something to do with what’s happening now.”

“But… during the match he spoke so quietly. Even if I were able to get the security footage, you wouldn’t be able to hear what he said.” Su Yu was confused as there was no way Huo Mian didn’t think about that.

“That’s fine, just get me the footage.”

“Okay, give me a second. I will go get it now.”

“Okay.”

Huo Mian hung up the video call and waited anxiously.

Half an hour later, Su Yu sent over a video on WeChat.

Huo Mian was pleasantly surprised to see that it was the exact footage she had asked for.

She couldn’t hear exactly what Huo Siqian said to Qin Chu as the camera was positioned very far from the scene, but the resolution was extremely clear.

Huo Mian held on to her phone tightly and ran into Jiang Xiaowei’s room. Jiang Xiaowei had just showered and was drying her wet hair with a towel.

“Xiaowei, can you read lips?”

“Yup.”

“You’re amazing!” Huo Mian hugged Jiang Xiaowei tightly and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

“My gosh! What is this?? You scared the crap out of me!” Jiang Xiaowei was surprised by the kiss.

“Come, can you tell me what Huo Siqian said to Qin Chu?”

Jiang Xiaowei studied the video curiously. After a moment, she said, “Hm. The shape of the lips are a little off, I have to study it a little bit.”

“Okay, there’s no rush. I just need a rough translation,” said Huo Mian. She then picked up the hair-dryer and began drying Jiang Xiaowei’s hair for her.

Jiang Xiaowei studied the video footage over and over again.

Finally, she looked up and grabbed Huo Mian’s sleeve. “Mian, I think he’s saying the word ‘identity’. Yes, it should be ‘identity’.”

“‘Identity’….Of course! Huo Siqian indeed knows about my identity!” Huo Mian yelled in shock but also mixed with a hint of happiness.

“What identity?” Jiang Xiaowei asked, clearly confused.

“I will explain this to you later, right now I have to go find Qin Chu.” As Huo Mian finished speaking, she ran out without looking back.

“Honey, where is Huo Mian going? She’s running really fast.”

“I think she went to find her husband.”

“What? Aren’t they divorced?” Wei Liao asked in confusion.
