Xu Xiyan stopped a few feet in front of Chen Yunlu as she caught up with her. She asked, “All right, what do you want to say? Why did you suddenly mention my mother?”
Chen Yunlu took a quick glance around. When she saw no one was around, she said, “Jing Xi, do you know why Yunshen’s father suddenly had a stroke this time?”
Xu Xiyan stared suspiciously at her. She threw the question back to her, “How would I know?”
Chen Yunlu fixed her dark eyes at her and said, word by word, “It’s because of your mother.”
It was because of her mother?
How could that be?
Xu Xiyan seemed to have heard a joke. She said noncommittally, “My mother has been dead for many years. Don’t tell me Mr. Huo Zhen’s stroke was caused by my mother’s ghost?”
“I know you will not believe it, but that’s the truth. If it weren’t for this case, I wouldn’t be telling you about our family’s scandal.”
After Xu Xiyan listened to Chen Yunlu’s explanation about the past, she became confused for a moment.
Wait, let me get this straight…
Chen Yunlu said that her mother, Jing Ruyue, had had a relations.h.i.+p with Huo Zhen, and the two had an unforgettable first-love relations.h.i.+p.
One of the entries in the diary Jing Ruyue left behind was about breaking up with her first love “H” due to a misunderstanding. If what Chen Yunlu said was true, was “H” referring to Huo Zhen?
After learning about their relations.h.i.+p, Xu Xiyan finally understood. It easily explained why Chen Yunlu had always had disdain for her.
But she never guessed that her mother would turn out to be Huo Zhen’s first love.
Back to the topic about the cause of Huo Zhen’s sudden stroke, Chen Yunlu had found a photo on the ground in Huo Zhen’s office.
“This is the photo I found that time.”
Chen Yunlu had brought the photo with her. She took it out and handed it to Xu Xiyan.
