Chapter 629 - Old Couple Divorcing (1/2)

”Auntie, don't worry. Everything will be okay.” She swore in her heart; Rainy's life and her life were saved by Gao Yi. When they were at their most helpless, most pitiful, and most painful moment in life; it was Gao Yi that saved them.

Now, she had to be the one who looked after his mother and his brother. This was not related to love or gratitude; she just had to do it.

”Thank you.” Wei Lan's eyes flashed the slightest bit of spark, and in between her breathing, she recalled many things from years back. Back then, she was as old as Xia Ruoxin, her Gao Yi was also the same age as Rainy, and Gao Xin was still being carried around without a care in the world.

Once again, she told her life story to Xia Ruoxin from the moment she entered the Bai family.

She and Bai Zhenfeng never had children all this while, and she actually knew the reason why. Just that sometimes—even if someone knew, it was not necessary to say it out loud as silence and fake ignorance could also be the key to maintaining harmony.

When Bai Zhenfeng married her, he had already done surgery in secret so that he could never have any children with her. He was protecting his daughter, Bai Luoyin, with his previous wife and was also taking precautionary measures against Wei Lan's sons from affecting his daughter inheriting his wealth. Actually, from the day he decided to marry Wei Lan, he had already calculated everything.

He had never thought of having another child with Wei Lan. To be harsh, he did not love Wei Lan as much as he thought he did; and he was also afraid that if Wei Lan had another child, the child would work together with Wei Lan's two sons against Bai Luoyin.

So, when Wei Lan married into the family, he had already calculated everything clearly.

He thought Wei Lan did not know any of these, but actually, she knew everything… just that she pretended not to. All these years, she had also buried this incident at the bottom of her heart and did not tell anyone about it.

As for Gao Yi, needless to say, as the oldest child that followed his mother in marrying over and because his brother was still young, he had to worry if the stepfather was nice to his mother and take care of the brother at the same time while worrying about finding his own place in the new family.

This point, Xia Ruoxin understood it very well as she had a similar past. However, Gao Yi and Gao Xin were luckier than her as they had a mother who loved them a lot. From the beginning, it was because she wanted a better life for her children so she married Bai Zhenfeng, and it was also because of her two children that she still stayed by his side after knowing all of Bai Zhenfeng's calculations.

Like many other people, after having a younger sister suddenly, Gao Yi was in favor but was also cautious. However, because the sister was pretty and cute, she quickly got her brother's heart.

He had even given his first love to this sister.

Just that… this sister had looked down on the two children Wei Lan had brought with her. Everyone had their young and reckless days; everyone had their days of not understanding and sympathizing with others. Bai Luoyin pretended to be nice to Gao Yi, and back then, he was just a simple-minded child who gave his first love to this sister. However, who knew, this sister was merely pulling off a huge joke on the brother. She pretended to like him, and he had the shock of his life when he confessed to her and was rejected by her on the spot. Amongst the mockery and laughter of everyone else, all of his pride and dignity was lost.

Since then, the brother had no more feelings for the sister.

It was until much later when the brother went to medical school and became a normal doctor, and he was still apathetic towards the sister. People always said that the things one could not have were the best. The sister started noticing the brother and wanted to grab his attention. She destroyed his countless friendsh.i.p.s and had later even reached a lunatic stage.

In the end, it was what Xia Ruoxin had met with.
