Talley let out a sad laugh, but soon after, his face regained its former resolve. ”Yu Huan, there's no need for you to apologize to me. No matter how hard I try, I won't be able to protect you.”

Yu Huan silently sat at the side and sighed. Even though she said so, she still didn't want to see Tully maintain an unhappy marriage.

Her gaze landed on the wedding dress in the room. It was a very beautiful wedding dress, but it caused her to feel an inexplicable sense of heartbreak.

Yu Huan quietly peeled the tangerine, then handed it to Ruo Lan.

”Huanhuan, do you really want to know who your father is?”

Yu Huan was stunned as she lifted her head to look at Ruo Lan. There was a smile on her face, but it couldn't hide the sadness in her heart.

”I don't want to know, Mom, if the facts hit you hard.” Although she was curious, she didn't want to see Ruo Lan sad.

There was a trace of gratification in Ruo Lan's eyes. ”But I still have to tell you about this matter. After all, you have the right to know.”

Yu Huan quietly sat beside her, not saying a word.

”When I was young, I liked Brother Chu. Brother Chu was much older than me, so much so that I didn't even know he had a wife. It wasn't until he divorced her that I lit up hope.” Roland sighed as if he thought back to that time of her, every day struggling on the edge of pain and despair.

”I thought he would choose to be with me, but I didn't expect him to choose Feng's mother. I was disappointed and went down to drink, getting drunk while being bullied by a group of hooligans …” At this point, Ruo Lan choked with sobs and could not continue.

This matter had been hidden deep in her heart for many years. No one who knew the inside story dared to speak of it, but it was an injury she had suffered for her entire life.

”After that, I found out that I was pregnant. I went to the hospital to give birth, but the doctor told me that my physique couldn't give birth, so I left you behind. Under the pressure, my mind collapsed.” Ruo Lan said lightly.

”All these years it was thanks to Brother Chu's care. Otherwise, I don't know what would have happened.”

Yu Huan was stunned as she looked at Ruo Lan. She never thought that this would be the end of things. She never thought that Ruo Lan would have to endure such a great deal of pain.

No wonder Elder Chu didn't want to mention it, and he didn't want to see her.

She was the crystallization of evil, and no one would want to see her, right?

Tears flowed down her face, she hugged Ruo Lan, sobbing softly, ”Mom, how much have you endured these years? I'm sorry, I'm sorry.”

Previously, she had always thought that she had been abandoned and felt that it was unfair. Now, it seemed that Ruo Lan was the one who had suffered the most, and she had endured a lot over the years.

”Good child, it's all the past now.” Ruo Lan lightly patted her back. A tear fell from the corner of her eye, but she felt very relaxed inside.

After she told him the truth, she felt as if all the gloom in her heart had disappeared. Perhaps she was the only one who dared to face such a matter today after so many years.

Elder Chu stood quietly at the side, looking at the two crying in each other's arms as he sighed deeply.

”Master, Miss Ruo Lan really put that matter down, right?” Steward Li, who was standing behind Elder Chu, also had a trace of gratification in his eyes.

”It should be. She has endured too much these past few years. I hope that she can truly let it go.” Elder Chu stared at the two of them, then turned and left.

That night, Yu Huan quietly stood at the edge of the balcony. Her eyes were filled with sadness. The chilling wind assaulted her, causing her to cough lightly as she tightened the clothes on her body.

”Chu Yufeng, I never thought that the truth would be like this.”

Chu Yufeng, who was sitting on the chair, had a glass of red wine in his hand. He took a sip but did not say anything.

”That year, it was because you knew about this matter that you chose to push me away, preventing Ruo Lan from contacting me again?”

”That incident was a huge blow to Ruo Lan. Dad doesn't seem to remind her again, so the only thing we can do is to cut off all sources of power in the past.” Chu Yufeng explained.

Yu Le nodded his head and rested his arm on the window to support his cheek. ”I really feel like Ruo Lan has suffered a lot in this life. I'm the source of her evil!”

”Idiot.” Chu Yufeng chuckled and cursed in a low voice.

Yu Huan turned her head and looked at him. She walked over with large strides and grabbed his wine cup before placing it aside. Then, she sat down on his lap and pinched his face.

”Who are you calling a fool?”

”What do you think?” He smiled and hugged her tightly, a trace of a smile appearing in his eyes. You want to seduce me by throwing yourself at me? ”

Yu Huan pinched him and said, ”Why aren't you serious?”

Chu Yufeng slapped her hard and said, ”I only care about being in bed. Do you want me to try?”

Her small face stiffened as she shook her head repeatedly. ”I don't want it.”

”It wasn't easy for you to seduce me once, I'll satisfy you then.” Chu Yufeng laughed and tugged at her clothes.

”Hey, hey, you pervert.” She quickly used her hand to stop him, her petite face was full of pleading, ”Let's not talk about this tonight, my waist is sore, I'm not done yet.”

Chu Yufeng looked at her pleading face and his heart softened. ”Then help me put out the fire.”

”I already said that I can't make it today.” She pursed her lips in dissatisfaction.
