C39 (1/2)

”Ever since the death of his wife, the young master's character has changed. ”He became a man who didn't like to talk to people, always hiding by himself, never greeting anyone when he saw them. Even if we wanted to make him happy, he would always remain expressionless.”

”I've become more and more indifferent towards people and things. When I grow up, I've become more and more fierce, and my methods have become more and more cruel. Sigh …”

”The death of his wife must have dealt a huge blow to him …”

Qiao Xinran asked softly, because she was the same as Han Mo, having lost her mother since she was young.

But what was different from Han Mo was that she did not change his personality because of his mother's departure.

It seemed like Han Mo and his wife were even closer.

Uncle Chang sighed, as though he was unwilling to think about the past.

”It's no wonder that young master sealed himself away. Such a young child, seeing his mother die in front of him. Such a bloody scene, how could he not be shocked?”

”Madam, she …” Qiao Xinran was shocked.

Uncle Chang nodded, ”Yes, Madame committed suicide.”

”How could this be …” Qiao Xinran was a little speechless. She couldn't imagine how a weak woman would have the courage to commit suicide.

”On that day, it happened to be young master's birthday, and the entire family gathered together for a rare occasion. ”In the living room, Young Master's favorite songs are played, and many friends have come to celebrate together with him …”

While talking, a sorrowful expression surfaced on Uncle Chang's face. Such a past, just thinking about it would make his heart ache, right?

”That gunshot, no matter how many more years pass, I will never forget it …” When everyone followed the direction of the gunfire, they saw that Madam had already fallen down and blood was splattering everywhere. What made us even more surprised was that the young master was actually standing outside the door without moving at all, watching his wife fall to the ground. Yet, he didn't say a single word … ”There's even blood on his face …”

Qiao Xinran could imagine that if she was in her place, she would probably be terrified to see this scene.

”Sigh …” Uncle Chang let out another heavy sigh, ”From then on, young master never smiled again, he became numb like a wooden puppet.”

He really did not expect that Han Mo actually had such a childhood, such a cruel memory.

Now that he knew all of this, and recalled his current behavior and personality, he didn't feel so hateful anymore.

He just never stepped out of the shadow of his mother's death. He used indifference to wrap up his heart completely, and didn't want to open it up to anyone.

In fact, deep down in his heart, he was very afraid, and very much hoped that someone would help him and comfort him.

”Young Mistress, Young Master's heart is still very gentle, it's not like what he looks like on the surface.”

He turned his head to look at Qiao Xinran, and laughed bitterly: ”Actually, the reason I told you all this, is because I hope that you can help young master. He has lived too many years … …”

”Me? ”He hates me so much, how can I help him …”

Qiao Xinran was at a loss, she wanted to kill her, if he did not torture her for a day, she would feel uncomfortable.

A person like this still needed her help? She was clearly the weak one, alright?

”Young Mistress, I've watched my young master grow up. I can see through every single look in his eyes and every single expression on his face. ”I know that the young master has feelings for the young mistress, but even he himself didn't know …”

What? Did he have feelings for her?

This was the funniest joke she had ever heard.
