Chapter 203

“Madam, you’re finally awake.”

Dark 1’s rare words startled Shen Xiaoxiao once again. He called that woman Madam?

The legend she had heard about ‘Madam’ was her? This woman who looked exactly the same as An Ning?

Why did she look the same as An Ning? Was this purely the same? It shouldn’t be, right? Yan Kuan was a member of the Ouyang family, and so was An Ning. So what was the relationship between these two people and this woman?

“You’re awake?”

Yan Kuan’s voice was still extremely cold, but Shen Xiaoxiao could still hear a trace of care in it. However, his movements were a little stiff. The action of tucking the corner of the quilt for that woman was not as natural as the action for her.

“You, you, you are Ran’er?” That woman’s voice sounded extremely weak. It was as if she had used up all her strength after finishing her sentence. The words that she said also made Shen Xiaoxiao extremely puzzled.

Ran’er? Who was that? Which woman called Yan Kuan Ran’er? Was she talking about Yan Kuan?

“You seem to be recovering well!”

Yan Kuan’s voice was still as calm as ever.

“Ran’er, were you the one who saved me? I was poisoned by the world’s strange poison and Yin Flower Tears. There is no cure in this world. Did you find the Black Ganoderma?”

This woman did not feel weak at all. She suddenly revealed what poison she was poisoned by and what antidote she needed.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

It seemed that Yan Kuan really wanted the Black Ganoderma to save this woman.

However, she felt that there was something wrong with this woman, but she could not tell what was wrong.

“You look good. Rest well, I will save you!”

With just a simple sentence, Yan Kuan turned around and left. Naturally, he saw Shen Xiaoxiao standing outside the door.

Without saying anything, he grabbed Shen Xiaoxiao’s waist and left. Shen Xiaoxiao turned to look at the door that was still open, feeling the thick cold air coming from Yan Kuan’s body.

She felt strange and inexplicable.

“Are you alright?”

She finally mustered up her courage to say this to Yan Kuan. Such a low-spirited Yan Kuan made Shen Xiaoxiao very uncomfortable.

Only then did she realize that every time Yan Kuan returned at the beginning of the month, the indifference and sadness that she could not ignore came from this place.

Yan Kuan did not speak, nor did he answer Shen Xiaoxiao’s question. At this moment, he only wanted to hug her tightly in his arms to give him comfort and warmth.

After they walked all the way back to the room, Yan Kuan stretched out his hand and took off his outer coat. He lazily leaned against the sofa, his eyes staring at the coffee table in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Shen Xiaoxiao slowly walked to the side, poured a cup of milk, and quietly placed it on the coffee table. She walked to the side of the bed and sat down. She did not say anything, just quietly accompanying him.

From dawn to dusk, Shen Xiaoxiao did not know how much time had passed. She fell asleep in a daze and woke up from the suffocation in a daze. She looked at Yan Kuan, who seemed to be venting his anger, and kissing her with all his might. It was mechanical and instinctive.

After a satisfying sex session, the two of them lay on the bed tiredly. Shen Xiaoxiao did not reject him using this as an outlet. She understood, she understood this man’s sorrow, understood this man’s indescribable sorrow and annoyance.

“That woman is my mother.”

“Ah?”

Shen Xiaoxiao was really shocked this time. That was Yan Kuan’s mother? How was that possible? She really thought that a man like Yan Kuan did not have parents, and it felt like he was born to raise them. But now, she actually heard that that woman was Yan Kuan’s mother, and it was a woman who looked exactly the same as An Ning.

There was something wrong with this, right?

“That An Ning, who is An Ning?”

Yan Kuan did not speak for a long time. He only stroked Shen Xiaoxiao’s back. Shen Xiaoxiao did not dare to speak. After a long time, she said, “Who is An Ning?”

“She is so similar to your mother. Then your mother, she is from the Ouyang Family?”

“Yes, she is Ouyang Tian’s youngest daughter, and also the daughter that Ouyang Tian dotes on the most. However, 20 years ago, during the Ouyang family’s fire, they all thought that my mother and I were burned to death in the ashes. They did not expect that both of us were lucky enough to survive.”

“What exactly happened to the Ouyang family 20 years ago? Why did the matter of the Ouyang family 20 years ago seem to be extremely secretive? Very few people know about it, and very few people mention it.”

When Yan Kuan heard this, he laughed mockingly and continued to say to her, “The Ouyang family does not dare to make a fuss because this is a huge scandal in the Ouyang family. Grandfather Ouyang personally gave the order to get rid of me and my mother.”

“You’re saying that Ouyang Tian personally ordered to get rid of his own daughter and nephew?”

“Yes, personally ordered to get rid of us.”

Yan Kuan’s voice was extremely cold. Shen Xiaoxiao knew that it would be extremely uncomfortable for him to mention these things, and how much courage he would need.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t know how to respond. In fact, she had many questions to ask, such as who was Yan Kuan’s father? Who was An Ning’s father, and what had caused them to be killed.

However, she did not dare to ask these questions because Yan Kuan was a profound person. She could be seen through by him, but she could not see through him at all.

“It’s all in the past, isn’t it? Don’t be like this. It’s just that An Ning is, after all, a member of the Ouyang family, and she seems to be treating you like…?”

“Disgusting!”

Just this one word could tell the disgust in Yan Kuan’s words. He seemed to have never had a good expression towards An Ning. Why was that?

“Alright, you’ll find out slowly in the future. Rest.”

The monotonous and simple discussion ended. Although Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart was filled with doubt, she did not dare to ask too much. The truth was that Yan Kuan’s current appearance was not good. Moreover, it was already very rare for him to be able to speak so much, so… Shen Xiaoxiao did not ask further.

However, regarding An Ning’s identity, she still felt that it was a little strange. This An Ning and Yan Kuan’s mother looked exactly the same. There was something wrong with this.

A smart woman lying next to him would sometimes make him feel that it was extremely troublesome, but at times, he would also feel that it was exceptionally thoughtful.

“Where did you put the key?”

This random question caused Shen Xiaoxiao to be stunned. Why did he bring up this question again? Could it be that he still wanted to use the key?

“Don’t you know?”

Yan Kuan smiled. This girl was still so guarded.

“Find a place to put it. Remember, in the future, even if I want it, you can’t give it to me. You must remember what I said today. Don’t trust anyone easily. Whether it’s me or your Third Uncle, the only person you can trust in this world is yourself.”

“What’s wrong?”

Shen Xiaoxiao felt that this sounded very strange? And why did she feel that these words sounded a little sad and strange?

“It’s nothing. A storm is coming. I’m afraid that this China will not be peaceful…”
