Xu Xiyan stopped a few feet in front of Chen Yunlu as she caught up with her. She asked, “All right, what do you want to say? Why did you suddenly mention my mother?”

Chen Yunlu took a quick glance around. When she saw no one was around, she said, “Jing Xi, do you know why Yunshen’s father suddenly had a stroke this time?”

Xu Xiyan stared suspiciously at her. She threw the question back to her, “How would I know?”

Chen Yunlu fixed her dark eyes at her and said, word by word, “It’s because of your mother.”

It was because of her mother?

How could that be?

Xu Xiyan seemed to have heard a joke. She said noncommittally, “My mother has been dead for many years. Don’t tell me Mr. Huo Zhen’s stroke was caused by my mother’s ghost?”

“I know you will not believe it, but that’s the truth. If it weren’t for this case, I wouldn’t be telling you about our family’s scandal.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After Xu Xiyan listened to Chen Yunlu’s explanation about the past, she became confused for a moment.

Wait, let me get this straight…

Chen Yunlu said that her mother, Jing Ruyue, had had a relationship with Huo Zhen, and the two had an unforgettable first-love relationship.

One of the entries in the diary Jing Ruyue left behind was about breaking up with her first love “H” due to a misunderstanding. If what Chen Yunlu said was true, was “H” referring to Huo Zhen?

After learning about their relationship, Xu Xiyan finally understood. It easily explained why Chen Yunlu had always had disdain for her.

But she never guessed that her mother would turn out to be Huo Zhen’s first love.

Back to the topic about the cause of Huo Zhen’s sudden stroke, Chen Yunlu had found a photo on the ground in Huo Zhen’s office.

“This is the photo I found that time.”

Chen Yunlu had brought the photo with her. She took it out and handed it to Xu Xiyan.

Xu Xiyan took the photo from her. The photo was old and yellowed. It had been taken many years ago, but the image was still very clear.

The man and woman in disheveled clothes in the photo were indeed Huo Zhen and Jing Ruyue.

Upon suddenly seeing a disgraceful photo of her mother from the past, Xu Xiyan’s mind was completely filled with befuddlement. She felt like she had received a heavy punch to her head.

After a long while, she returned to her senses and asked, “Who gave this photo to him?”

“How should I know?”

Chen Yunlu did not know who had given the photo to Huo Zhen, but she was certain that Huo Zhen had had a stroke after seeing the photo.

Xu Xiyan was silent for a while before speaking again. “All of this is in the past. What are you trying to gain by telling all of this to me now?”

Xu Xiyan believed that Chen Yunlu would not show her the photo for no reason. She must have her purpose.

“Yes, I know it was the past. The reason why I brought the photo to you is that I want you to understand what kind of relationship your mother and Yunshen’s father shared in the past. Your mother was involved with Yunshen’s father. Do you think it is appropriate that you continue to get entangled with Yunshen?”

Chen Yunlu was impassive as she questioned Xu Xiyan.

“…”

Xu Xiyan was beginning to feel confused. She had always been clear-minded but her mind was so foggy now. She didn’t know what to say.

She had already figured out Chen Yunlu’s intentions. It was clear that she was trying to indirectly persuade her to leave Huo Yunshen.

Seeing that Xu Xiyan was no longer talking, Chen Yunlu assumed her words had taken effect. She continued to strike while the iron was hot. “Have you ever thought that if they were really together that time, you and Yunshen might be half-siblings? Do you really want a disgusting relationship with him?”

Half-siblings?

Her words came like thunder. Xu Xiyan’s heart felt as if it had been struck by lightning.
