Chuchu was surprised to see his reaction, and asked, "You know?"
Yan Hui nodded and said, "Mrs. Liu is Ming Wan’s biological mother, but due to certain reasons, Ming Wan can’t et her." He said just these few words and didn’t give Chuchu any more details.
Chuchu was even more shocked upon hearing this. She had thought that Ming Wan’s relationship with Mrs. Liu wasn’t simple, but she never expected them to be mother and daughter. Her curiosity intensified—judging by Yan Hui’s expression, Ming Wan felt sothing for Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu was worried about Ming Wan.
Both parties have feelings for each other, but they can’t et, leaving Chuchu to speculate wildly about the complications involved.
Furthermore, the Ming Family isn’t just any ordinary family; how could they tolerate such a thing happening? She knew that most elite families, even if there’s an illegitimate child involved, generally wouldn’t acknowledge it, let alone bring the child ho.
Seeing that Yan Hui had no intention of revealing the hidden story to her, Chuchu didn’t dare press him, lest she touch upon sothing sensitive and embarrass everyone involved.
But then she turned to Jiang Kechu and asked, "Did you know that Ming Wan and Mrs. Liu are mother and daughter?"
To her surprise, Jiang Kechu nodded and said he knew. Chuchu stumbled and exclaid, "How do you all know? And you never told —if I had known Ming Wan and Mrs. Liu had feelings for each other, I could have tried to arrange a eting for them! Now she’s gone abroad; it’s such a pity."
Thinking of this, she rembered sothing else and asked, "Do you know why Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu suddenly emigrated abroad?"
Jiang Kechu also nodded, laughed, and said, "Don’t get excited. If you want to know sothing, I can tell you all about it now. They were worried that you might act on your own and, despite your good intentions, complicate things."
It wasn’t a matter of critical importance, and since his beloved wife wished to know, Jiang Kechu was willing to share all that he knew.
Chuchu glared at him, saying, "Is that how you see —impulsive and reckless?"
"No, no," Jiang Kechu quickly corrected himself, and then he recounted a story from the past.
Years ago, when Mrs. Liu was a fresh graduate undertaking an internship, due to a bizarre coincidence, Ming the Chief was frad and ended up having an encounter with Mrs. Liu. Later, Mrs. Liu discovered she was pregnant. Knowing Ming the Chief had a wife and child, she planned to secretly abort the child, but she was discovered and confined by Ming Family’s rivals.
Nine months later, as Mrs. Liu was about to give birth, she managed to escape and went into hiding to give birth to Ming Wan.
While in hiding, she discovered that those who had confined her weren’t part of the Ming Family, but the group kept searching for her, forcing her to contact Mr. Ming.
For Ming Wan’s safety, Mrs. Liu painfully handed the child to the Ming Family and vowed never to seek her daughter or speak of the matter for the rest of her life.
Mr. Ming also kept tight-lipped about the incident, but bringing the child ho suddenly created a rift between him and his wife, who later fell ill and stayed bedridden.
As Ming Wan grew older, she occasionally discovered that she wasn’t Mrs. Ming’s biological daughter. Quietly, she investigated and found out her birth mother was Mrs. Liu. Additionally, she attempted to et Mrs. Liu, almost leading to Mrs. Liu’s death. That incident scared Ming Wan, and the Ming Family sent her abroad.
It was during this overseas stay that Ming Wan and Yan Hui t. The incident left a psychological shadow on Ming Wan, since then, she didn’t dare to speak about her biological mother, much less try to find her.
After hearing the story, it took Chuchu a while to compose herself again. She sighed, saying, "So that’s how it is; Ming Wan and Mrs. Liu are truly pitiful."
A mother and daughter separated from a young age, and even when grown, they couldn’t et or acknowledge each other. She thought if she and Hunter Legend faced a similar fate, how could they possibly survive?
"So the Crown Prince blas Ming Wan and her mother for his biological mother’s early death, and expelled Mrs. Liu from the country this ti?" Chuchu asked.
Jiang Kechu nodded, "The Crown Prince has always kept Ming Wan in his grasp, but her marriage to Yan Hui is a liberation from his control."
For a mont, Chuchu didn’t know what to say. After all, the Crown Prince had also lost his biological mother. It seed like fate was cruel. In all of this, Mrs. Liu was the most innocent, becoming unwitting collateral damage, unable to acknowledge her own flesh and blood for life, and unable to speak about it. No wonder Mrs. Liu never told her.
"Mr. Ming’s actions weren’t entirely fair, cruelly separating Mrs. Liu and her daughter, forbidding them from eting," Chuchu found a scapegoat to vent her frustration.
Jiang Kechu patted her head, saying, "Mr. Ming did it to protect both Mrs. Liu and her daughter, so others would believe Mrs. Liu had no ties to the Ming Family and wouldn’t harm her. It was also to maintain the Ming Family’s reputation."
"Now that Mrs. Liu is abroad, maybe it’s a blessing in disguise. Ming Wan might have a chance to see Mrs. Liu there."
Chuchu pondered the idea and agreed, feeling hopeful for Ming Wan, "I hope they’ll eventually reunite."
Yan Hui and Ming Wan, along with Li Shan and Mao Xiaoyu, are tensely and orderly preparing for their wedding. Chuchu is so busy she can hardly manage other things, but after a hectic month, they finally welcod the wedding day.
Within the tight tifra of a month, Ti Studio exerted great effort and finally presented two wedding gowns for the bride: Ming Wan’s gown was dignified and elegant, while Mao Xiaoyu’s was pure and charming, both expressed their liking, and the groom also expressed satisfaction, giving Yu Zimu and Lingling a breath of relief.
The wedding was held at a suburban resort; the resort was bought by Xiao Bai a year ago, and its renovation had just been completed, making it look fresh and new all around.
The day before, Chuchu arrived at the resort to coordinate arrangents. Following the elder’s wishes, this wedding was to be grand, attended by dignitaries, elites, and socialites, with everything ticulously arranged. The most crucial point was to arrange proper security to prevent any paparazzi sneaking in for photos.
Beijing’s dia, upon hearing that Yan Hui was finally marrying, were thrilled and planned to do whatever it took to get the first-hand information. Unfortunately, Yan Hui’s confidentiality asures were better, and the dia only managed to uncover the bride’s identity—astounced and excited, but couldn’t capture any photos of Ming Wan.
As for Li Shan and Mao Xiaoyu, the dia weren’t as concerned, though curious about their identities, to be marrying alongside Yan Hui.
The eagerly awaited wedding day finally arrived.
