Chapter 712 (1/2)
Back then, she, in her anger, slapped Su Ruhua, only to be slapped by her mother who did not know the truth. Back then, Su Ruhua was the goody-two-shoes while she was the rebellious child. Her parents were biased.
Back then, she, who was just seventeen, lost the reason to live and everything, including her children and family. Mo s.h.i.+tian, Su Ruhua, and the entire world turned its back on her.
Back then, she was so despondent she almost broke down.
Back then, Mo s.h.i.+tian cruelly sealed away her memories and had her memories wiped clean. As the operation was too hurried, along with how her body persistently rejected the medication, the operation was somewhat a failure. Thus, she lost her memories and her reasoning only to become a fool who spent half a year with Mo s.h.i.+tian, who eventually unlocked her memories…
Back when she recovered her memories, she wanted to kill the children who so uncannily resembled Mo s.h.i.+tian, only for her parents to call her cruel. Her sister also avoided her. She did not know how to relieve the anger in her heart which was directed at those who inflicted the deepest hurt on her. Who would pick up the tab for the death of her children? If she weren’t provoked by Su Ruhua, she would not have prematurely delivered and the child’s umbilical cord would not have tangled around its neck. Who would give her child that very chance to live?
Back then, even though she was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with vengeance, she could not lay a finger on her close ones and hence s.h.i.+fted all her hatred onto Mo s.h.i.+tian and took it out on him daily. In order to s.h.i.+ft her attention, he silently endured it all.
Back then, the Mafia ruled the tumultuous underworld. She was aware that she could not kill Mo s.h.i.+tian and that she could not exact vengeance. Hence, she opted to fade into obscurity.
Back then, she had already faded into obscurity in the corners of the world while he doggedly looked for her. She was so good at obscuring herself and avoiding him to the point she had somebody send him a letter to sever all ties with him until the end of time.
Back then, he fanned the flames of misunderstanding between the Saudi royal family and the Su family for want of forcing her to appear, only to end up being exploited when the Su family was being sidelined by the royal family and exterminated.
Back then, she, saddled with hatred, detonated her s.h.i.+p to perish with him but ended up being saved by Fu Jin and lost her memories. She spent peaceful twenty-over years on the island since.
Su Ruhua…
Mo s.h.i.+tian…
‘How could you have treated me as such?’
Back then, she gave Su Ruhua and Mo s.h.i.+tian chances to explain themselves, but neither of them was willing to budge. Mo s.h.i.+tian claimed he knew nothing about how the children came about.
Who was he lying to?
It’s not like she was a three-year-old child.
As too many painful memories rushed into Su Ruyu’s mind, she almost broke down once again. While the dribs and drabs of painful memories cruelly took form in her mind, the utterly searing pain was something she did not want to bring up ever again. It was an eternal wound in the depths of her heart that would ache ceaselessly.
Like how everybody stabbed her and pushed her further toward the abyss of desperation, Mo s.h.i.+tian’s betrayal, her sister’s betrayal, the death of her children, and her parents’ misunderstanding and slapping left her heartbroken.
The memories, which had been sealed away for over twenty years, suddenly surged into her mind. Everything felt as though they had happened the day before. She could vividly remember how she carried that cold body that so resembled her child before going berserk.
When Mo s.h.i.+tian came, she shot him in his chest, demanding a life for a life.
