It took Qin Shu a while to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

She didn't believe that General Xin would do such a thing. Thinking that Chu Linchen was in the Imperial Palace, he must know more about the situation, so she wanted to call him for confirmation.

Just as he was about to dial, another call came in first.

I looked at it and it was Zhang Yifei.

Qin Shu picked up.

Zhang Yifei's concerned voice came from the phone: "Qin Shu, I heard in the news that the Xin family..."

"I'm still investigating this matter. I'll tell you when I have definite information." Qin Shu's voice was a little tight, but she tried her best to stay calm.

Zhang Yifei heard it, and asked softly: "Qin Shu, are you... okay?"

"Well, I'm fine. Thank you, Yi Fei."

Zhang Yifei didn't say anything, said a few words of comfort and hung up the phone.

Qin Shu then dialed Chu Linchen's number again.

Because of nervousness, her fingers were trembling and she stared at the screen closely.

The bell rang over and over again.

Finally, Chu Linchen got through.

Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't wait to confirm: "Is the evidence found by the Xin family true?"

The man on the other end of the phone didn't respond.

Qin Shu's heart tightened inexplicably, "Lin Chen?"

Chu Linchen finally said "hmm" softly, and before Qin Shu asked, he lowered his voice and said, "I'll tell you when I get back."

"...Oh, okay."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Shu felt a little sad.

Chu Linchen's reaction already showed: This is probably true.

After Qin Shu adjusted her mood outside, she took a taxi home again.

She didn't want to bring her emotions home or in front of Weiwei.

"Mommy, why did you go out for so long before coming back?"

As soon as he got home, the little guy was like a clingy bird and flew into Qin Shu's arms.

Qin Shu stroked his little head and held the bag in one hand to signal, "Mommy brought back chestnut cake specially for you, do you want to try it?"

Weiwei happily took the bag and said, "Okay, Mommy and I will eat together."

As he said that, he took Qin Shu with his little hand and walked towards the sofa.

Liu Weilu came out of the kitchen carrying fruit, "Xiao Shu is back, you..."

Seeing the smile on Weiwei's face, he consciously swallowed back what he wanted to ask.

The news has spread to the Imperial Palace, but they don't want to talk about this kind of thing in front of their children.

Qin Shu exchanged silent glances with her, then quickly looked away and ate chestnut cake with her child.

She acted very relaxed and comfortable, and there was no hint of depression or discomfort in her heart.

Liu Weilu put down the fruit, stood in the distance and looked at the mother and son on the sofa, sighing almost inaudibly.

Night fell, but Chu Linchen hadn't come back yet.

Qin Shu received a brief message from him on his mobile phone: The Gong family invited him to have dinner at the Lord's Mansion.

Being able to stay and dine at the Imperial Palace is a great honor for ordinary people.

However, under the current situation, it only makes people feel uneasy.

Qin Shu prepared dinner, and there were only three of them at the table: she, Liu Weilu, and Weiwei.

Chu Zhou and Chu Xu were also in the company and did not come back.
