Feng Xinying looked at Xie Yuansheng with question in her eyes. She was just trying to fit the puzzle pieces together. His mother had died in a car accident and even hers had died in a car accident. Xie Weihui being the common thread, she thought that perhaps they died in the same car accident. She wondered if even he was in dark as she was. She had come to know who was behind it after so long. It was possible that even he didn"t know and she could help him in finding the details. It was just too complicated and unless she asked those questions there was no way she would be able to solve the puzzle.
Xie Yuansheng gazed her phoenix shaped eyes. He brought his hand over her cheeks and softly caressed her there. Then he took a deep breath and said, "Tomorrow I am sending my men to talk to Xie Weihui. I don"t know the details as of now. My mother died in a car accident about that time only and after that it was aunt Weihui who took me under her wings. However, when I come to think of it that it was aunt who had killed your mother, she probably killed mine too."
Feng Xinying closed her eyes. Perhaps her suspicion was correct. "Xie Weihui is in jail. How will you send your men to talk to her? Do you mean Xie Shengjun is going? It"s his wedding tomorrow!"
"I have some people whom I know in the police and I have filed a complaint against her the day she was arrested regarding her confession that she killed your mother. So I am hoping that they would interrogate her," he replied as he held her hand. Feng Xinying looked out of the window. She could not wait for the revelation. Xie Yuansheng held her chin and forced her to look at him. "Xiao Ying, she is behind bars and now she is about to lose her money and she has already lost her daughter. Why are you digging the past? Can"t you let it go? She has gone out of our lives and I will make sure that she doesn"t return. So stop looking for anything else. Please darling. Let"s just focus on the future, hmm?"
Xie Yuansheng knew everything right from the beginning. After Xie Weihui had confessed to her crime, it became easy for him to make her the scapegoat. If he had got her interrogated, she would have also revealed that the Xie Brothers headed the Crocodile organization. How could he take a risk like that? He had asked his friend and the police chief to keep her in solitary confinement. She was not allowed to meet anyone, not even her daughter. He had decided to personally investigate her once Xie Shengjun"s wedding was over. Until then she had to face his wrath of staying in solitary confinement.
The prison Xie Weihui was in, was devoid of any windows. The toilet was right inside and she was given food through a small window that would open at fixed hours only to slide her plate in. She would bang the walls and the doors and shout to meet her lawyer and her daughter, but no one heard her. She cried and cried in those two days. It was impossible for her to live in this jail. What a change from the life she had spent? She cursed Feng Xinying every single minute.
She wanted to talk to the man who had started the attack and instigated her brother to go against Feng Zhantian. She wanted him to help her out. However, she hadn"t heard from him ever since Feng Xinying had returned from America. He was the one who had approached her with the most fantastic plan that would get her Feng Conglomerate and also the status of being Feng Zhantian"s wife. She had followed him to the dot! And now was the time that she had to leak everything to the police to catch the main culprit if he didn"t help her.
Feng Xinying lowered her head. "I want to meet her, Xie Yuansheng. I want to ask her all the questions. Can we meet her?"
Xie Yuansheng"s heartbeat increased. He could never let her meet Xie Weihui. He smiled and said, "Of course dear. Let"s attend Xie Shengjun"s wedding first so that we look happy because after meeting her, we both are going to be sad. Isn"t that?"
Feng Xinying forced a smile on her face and nodded.
They drove in silence for the rest of the journey and reached the manor in the next half an hour.
When Feng Xinying stepped down the car, Xie Yuansheng came from the other side and held her waist. The side of the dress that she was wearing was cut from the waist. He placed her hand on her fair skin and brushed it softly. They walked together in the path that led them to the garden where the dinner was laid. The couple looked so das.h.i.+ng that when they walked together, it looked as if they had stepped out of a fas.h.i.+on magazine.
When she reached the venue, she saw that Keira was standing with her parents who had surrounded her. Her mother was crying saying that her little daughter had grown up. Xie Shengjun was standing near them and looked like a fool as he watched the family. In fact he was even comforting her mother. "Don"t cry mother, I can understand your pain."
The guests had started pouring in. They were all standing in small groups. Some of them were even dancing on the dance floor that was created in a corner. Soft romantic songs were played and couples were swaying together.
Keira beamed when she saw Feng Xinying and waved at her. Feng Xinying smiled back. She made her way to Keira excitedly. Xie Yuansheng followed her. He went and stood with his brother. He circled his hands around his shoulders as his brother introduced the two of them to Keira"s parents.
"Omo! Keira, the younger brother is more handsome. Why didn"t you choose him?" exclaimed the mother as if she had lost the bounty.
Xie Shengjun narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips as he removed his brother"s hands from his shoulders. "I don"t want you to stand near me for the rest of the evening," he warned Xie Yuansheng but his younger brother circled his hands around his older brother"s shoulder tightly. He looked at Keira"s mother and said with a grin, "I am taken. There is only one woman who I like and don"t have heart for anyone else." He pointed at his wife.
Feng Xinying giggled.
Keira"s mother made a terrible face. "If you are still single, I can make you meet more of Keira"s cousins. One of them has blond hair also."
Feng Xinying was beginning to hate that woman now. Keira could sense it. "Mother, don"t you know who Feng Xinying was in America? Do you think Xie Yuansheng would even look at others? Also I am very happy with Xie Shengjun. Do you remember what had happened to me without him in America?"
Keira"s mother realized her mistake instantly. She nodded, "Yes child."
Her father scolded her for speaking nonsense. He held his wife"s hand and took her to the dance floor.
Keira started laughing and so did Feng Xinying. Suddenly Keira started throwing a tantrum. "Xinying, my wedding dress is disastrous! That fas.h.i.+on designer has created a mess again. What do I do?"
Feng Xinying knew what would she gift Keira. She smiled at her and said, "Calm down. I will take care, okay?"
There was a huge gathering now. Many guests had arrived. Xie Shengjun and Keira became busy shaking hands. Xie Yuansheng took Feng Xinying to the dance floor where they danced until her feet were tired.
She rested her head on his chest and let him sway her. "I want to have babies, darling."
He kissed her head. He was eager to seal their bond…
"What about your movies?" he asked as he closed his arms around her.
She hid her face in his chest and said, "I don"t want to do anything other than being mother to your kids. I want to be your wife. I want you to take care of the company while I wait with my kids back home for you."
Little did she know of the danger that was lurking around him...
