Chapter 443
Qin Xin went to great lengths to persuade Old Madam Qin, both by appealing to her emotions and also by luring her for profit.
However, Old Madam Qin remained unmoved, looking at Qin Xin with cold eyes as if she was watching an actor on a stage.
“Qin Xin,” Qin Zening said coldly, “Do you truly not know the reason why you were removed from the clan?”
Without blinking, Qin Xin looked at Qin Zening with a pair of misty eyes and said looking hurt and with aggrieved words, “Brother, you’ve misunderstood me too much.”
Qin Zening had long known that Qin Xin was a person who would not stop until she saw the Yellow River, and with an unperturbed look on his face, he said, “Killing one’s relatives is an unforgivable crime.”
Qin Xin once again said, “Brother, it isn’t me who encouraged mother...Madam Su. Just believe me for once.”
Qin Zening took half a step closer toward her, looked down at Qin Xin and said almost word for word, “Do you still remember the forest of oleander at the station in Mengji County?”
“I wonder if you’ve tasted that bowl of sweet soup with oleander yourself?”
“You don’t understand?” Qin Zening’s eyes were sharp as he let out a sneer from the bottom of his throat. “If you think you’re innocent, then why don’t you go to the public court and talk, report why our Qin family wants to expel you from the clan!”
“Whether or not our grandfather’s death had anything to do with you, you know it in yourself very well!”
Qin Xin: “...”
Qin Xin’s thumping heart accelerated, as she dared not look directly into Qin Zening’s eyes but still braced herself and said. “I didn’t do it, brother, don’t accuse me wrongly.”
“I know that ever since you realized that my biological mother switched me with a third sister, you have disliked me and have been trying to drive me out of the Qin family. And now to expel me from the clan, you will wrong me like this, planting my grandfather’s death on my head, this is too deceitful.”
“Forget it, since you haven’t thought of our kinship for half a year, then I won’t beg you.”
“I can leave now, can’t I?!”
Qin Xin wiped the tears from her reddened eyes with a handkerchief and stood up from the ground, then turned around to leave.
