Ye Tiao was shocked by Shi i’s earnestness, and her gaze beca focused. She watched her seriously, waiting for what she would say next.
Shi i’s eyes t hers, and finally, she revealed all those things she had never told her before, deeply buried in her heart, completely and plainly.
As Ye Tiao listened to these words, her eyebrows furrowed tightly. With the story unfolding through Shi i’s words, the degree of shock on her face grew larger and larger. She didn’t know how much ti had passed; her expression had almost twisted, "Now Bai Yuejie’s heart is on the brink of failure once again. She must have a heart transplant. If she really has set her sights on your heart, then you..."
Shi i pursed her lips, "I never doubted her intentions before, so even when she took for a health check and arranged everything for , I just felt that she was looking out for my well-being. So afterwards, I was completely unguarded."
Ye Tiao’s face looked extrely unpleasant, "This woman is simply treacherous and disgusting. I’ve always disliked her, but I never imagined she could do sothing like this. It seems..."
It seems she was nothing like the sinister, despicable person one might imagine.
Even though Ye Tiao had disliked Bai Yuejie for all these years, she had never thought of her as being so vile and malicious.
Shi i didn’t make a sound and lay back in bed, closing her eyes.
Ye Tiao turned around and hugged her, whispering, "Don’t be afraid; I’ll protect you."
Shi i thought this was sowhat amusing, her lips curved slightly, and she responded faintly.
She would protect herself as well.

Five days later.
Twenty-four years ago, Shi Lingyan’s parents perished in a major fire.
Every year on the anniversary of their death, Shi Lingyan and Grandma and Grandpa Shi would visit their graves.
This year was naturally no exception.
Holding her mother’s favorite sunflowers, Shi Lingyan gently placed them in front of her gravestone, looking at the black and white photo on it, a brilliant and beautiful smile, captured in her happiest years.
Right next to her, the husband who would forever love her, was accompanying her, just as always, in pairs.
Grandpa Shi, looking at the tombstone of his son and daughter-in-law, had beco accustod and numb to it over the years, while Grandma Shi couldn’t help but feel sad.
As Grandma Shi watched, she suddenly sighed softly, "I thought we could have brought a daughter-in-law to see them this year, but who knew sothing like this would happen, sigh..."
"Alright," Grandpa Shi waved his hand, "Let the past be the past, sigh, Shi i did co here once before, they should have been at peace underground long ago."
"Not at all," Grandma Shi said angrily, "If it were , I could be furious enough to co back to life. We finally anticipated a daughter-in-law, and she was a fool. As soon as she beca normal, she couldn’t wait to get a divorce and leave. It’s all that old coot’s fault!"
Grandpa Shi felt very wronged, "How is that my fault..."
Shi Lingyan, listening to his grandparents’ conversation, wasn’t paying attention to them at all.
He looked at his parents’ gravestones, sowhat lost in thought, and his gaze subconsciously drifted to his surroundings.
This cetery wasn’t densely packed; the sparse tombstones and few people coming to pay respects made it quiet as always.
But today, the atmosphere was making Shi Lingyan feel uneasy.
This feeling was rare, but once it appeared, it was hard to shake off.
Just like when his parents had had their accident, and just like when Tang Wu had had hers.
