Chapter 545 - She Had Misunderstood Him (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Nan Zhi never thought that Mu Sihan and Shangguan Wan did not register their marriage, and had only held a wedding ceremony.

In that case, the two of them were indeed not a real married couple.

It was even more unexpected that Mu Sihan had returned to the Ye family for Xiaojie.

Shangguan Wan had already said things so blatantly. If Nan Zhi still could not guess what Mu Sihan had done for Xiaojie, then she would really be an idiot.

After Xiaojie got diagnosed with leukemia, it had been hard to find a suitable bone marrow for him.

It was not easy to find a match with Brother Gu Sheng, but he had pa.s.sed away.

Even if Mu Sihan was rich, it was definitely not easy to find a suitable bone marrow for Xiaojie in such a short period of time.

The Ye family probably approached him when Xiaojie was in a critical condition!

Was the condition to save Xiaojie for Mu Sihan to return to the Ye family and get married to Shangguan Wan?

Nan Zhi’s long eyelashes fluttered, as her grip on the cup of lemon juice tightened to the point that her knuckles turned white. Her voice was a little choked, “I didn’t know he experienced so much pressure.”

She had read his diary, that he had always been seen as a jinx by the Ye family. The Ye family only liked Ye Qing, and never him, which was why he was banished from the family when he was twelve-years-old. For a child that age, it must have been a really strong blow.

If Ye Qing was still alive, the Ye family definitely would not let him return.

To the Ye family, he was always Ye Qing’s shadow and subst.i.tute.

When Xiaojie was in critical condition, Mu Sihan must have felt really complicated. When she fell down the cliff, she told him to take good care of Xiaojie.

He could not bear to see his son leave the world, which was why he had given up his freedom and hatred, ultimately succ.u.mbing to being used by his father when he returned to the Ye family.

A thin layer of moisture covered Nan Zhi’s eyes.

“He didn’t tell you all this, right?” Shangguan Wan sighed. “Actually, it’s partly my fault too. When we agreed to get married, we promised each other that we would not tell anyone about our marriage status as it would implicate too many things.”

Nan Zhi nodded, showing her understanding.

A marriage union between n.o.bility was not only between two people, but two families and a country.

Nan Zhi sipped on the lemon juice, before she bit her lips with her white teeth. “I saw the news that the two of you have a child…”

Shangguan Wan froze, before she smiled and shook her head. “This is counted as my scandal. Miss Nan, can I trust you?”

Nan Zhi stared at Shangguan Wan. “I’m not the type to gossip. However, if it’s a secret, it’s better not to tell me.”

Shangguan Wan broke into a soft giggle. “Only Sihan and I know about this. However, because you’re the most important person to Sihan, it’s fine if I tell you. If not, you might misunderstand and be jealous.”

Nan Zhi was speechless. Why was Shangguan Wan’s personality so good? She felt a little embarra.s.sed now.

Shangguan Wan leaned towards her, before she glanced around them. Noting that no one was paying attention to them, she whispered, “My Xingxing is not Mu Sihan’s child. We’re not a real couple, why would we sleep with each other?”

Nan Zhi was speechless once more. It seemed she had no idea what to expect from Shangguan Wan. The woman had blown all of her expectations out of the water.

This kind of thing was really a secret. If it was leaked, both Mu Sihan and Shangguan Wan would be affected greatly.

“Actually, even I do not know who Little Xingxing’s father is, but it’s alright. I will raise Little Xingxing by myself in the future. However…” Shangguan Wan glanced at Nan Zhi in slight apology. “Before Sihan manages to wield power, we will still be a couple to the public eye while he will still be Xingxing’s known father. Miss Nan, I hope you won’t mind that. It’s really because the situation now is really unstable and we’re still tied down by many things. Because of this, I’m afraid you will have to suffer for a little as a result.”

Nan Zhi did not know that she would find out about so many things from Shangguan Wan today. Being shocked was an understatement.

Although she knew that she had misunderstood Mu Sihan now, it was still best if she did not cause any trouble for him since the situation was still unstable, like Shangguan Wan had said.
