Reborn to Outshine My Ex and His White Moonlight novel Chapter 608

Chapter 608: Chapter 608: What Can Be Done by the River in Ten Minutes?

"Mom, was there anything unusual before Wei Xiaoyun planned her fake death?"

Lin Zhiyi always felt that since Wei Xiaoyun was so smart, there was no need for her to guard against Liu He, who was wholeheartedly on her side.

There must be something else that’s been overlooked.

"No. We were best friends, if anything happened, she couldn’t possibly hide it from me."

Liu He shook her head, her fist clenched for a long time before relaxing.

This scene was caught by Gong Chen, who withdrew his gaze without a word.

"How much money did you give her?"

Liu He was startled, her eyes fixed in place.

"Lao San, how did you know?"

"You just said you both paid off her debt, how much more did you give her later?" Gong Chen stared at her.

Under his gaze, Liu He was flustered, unable to hide any secrets.

"All of it, I only kept a month’s living expenses; she took it to appease the debt collectors, afraid they’d show up unexpectedly and derail our plan."

After hearing this.

Lin Zhiyi rubbed her forehead.

She finally understood why, during her childhood, her mother and she struggled so much.

Even though her mom worked as a sales associate at a luxury store, every month they barely scraped by.

As a student, she thought Liu He just couldn’t manage money.

Now she knew, there was simply no money, and Liu He was supporting her with borrowed money.

After paying off debts with her salary, there was hardly anything left.

But upon reconsideration, Lin Zhiyi felt something was off.

Wei Xiaoyun’s fake death plan indicated she didn’t want to die.

She even took all of Liu He’s money, so there was no reason for her to commit suicide just because Liu He was ten minutes late.

Yet, the witnesses said she disappeared after jumping into the river.

How to explain the body?

Whose body was it?

Lin Zhiyi’s head hurt from thinking, she couldn’t help but glance at Gong Chen.

He just tapped his temple with his fingers, looking knowingly, yet helplessly.

He finally understood where Lin Zhiyi’s complex personality came from.

A mother easily deceived, and a self not assertive, only able to bravely face the hard truths.

But...

With Wei Xiaoyun’s abilities, it was impossible for her to find a corpse to impersonate her.

Gong Chen pondered for a moment, not wanting to alarm the pregnant woman, he changed the topic: "What did Wei Xiaoyun look like?"

Liu He jolted, shaking her head vigorously.

"It’s been over twenty years, people age, I couldn’t say."

"What about photos?"

"They’re gone. Xiaoyun said she was afraid loan sharks would use the photos to trouble me, so she burned all of our photos before the plan," Liu He replied with her eyes down.

Lin Zhiyi exclaimed, "Not even one left?"

"No." Liu He nodded.

"What about other aunties?"

"The same, they didn’t want trouble either, they destroyed most of the photos."

Liu He pursed her lips, lost in thought.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Gong Chen asked the last question: "Did Wei Xiaoyun leave you anything?"

Liu He paused, then shook her head.

"No."

"Okay, don’t think too much about it, it’s all in the past now," Gong Chen consoled.

Hearing the words "in the past", Liu He’s face regained some color.

She looked up at Lin Zhiyi and Gong Chen, "Why are you suddenly so interested in Wei Xiaoyun?"
