Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Xia Yehua took Shen Liangchuan and they left the Shen Family without a cent in their pockets, Shen Zihao had only been 15 years old.
It was the age when teenagers were naturally rebellious.
Xia Yehua’s departure had caused him to abruptly lose his mothers’ love, so he beca exceptionally sensitive and nervous.
It left him feeling insecure.
It might not have been so tough on him if hi mom had not taken Shen Liangchuan with her when she left.
At that ti, she took his brother along with her and they left without warning. Sotis in the night, he would lay awake questioning himself.
If he was unwanted because he wasn’t good enough, if it was because he angered his mom all the ti.
He wanted to be a child who pleased his mother, and he wanted to have a ho where he belonged.
Especially at that ti.
He was young and naive, going away to study abroad.
In a strange land, he missed ho even more.
But while he was looking forward to being ho again for the holidays and enjoying ti with his family once more, he had received the grievous news.
He still rembered clearly how his Dad had called him on the phone, saying that his mother had left, taking his brother with her. But he was in another country, separated by vast seas, connected only through the telephone. He could only ask his father, “What about ?”
He had no idea of what that question really ant, but those were the only words that ca out.
At a ti in his life when he had felt terribly lost, i Feng appeared.
He had always known i Feng.
He had t her many tis as Dad’s secretary.
i Feng treated him exceptionally well.
After his mom left ho, i Feng started to take care of his father and him daily.
Her patience, tolerance and warmth made them happy.
Especially how i Feng treated him.
She was less than 20 years older than him.
At the ti she had married his father, she would have been about 35 years old.
This young lady beca his stepmother.
He had seen her talking to housekeepers, who knew him well, to ask about his eating habits.
i Feng had given him a warm ho again.
And it had been so for many years.
She had never done anything against him and this hadn’t changed in eight years. She had been nothing but kind towards him, and that kindness ca from her heart.
He was no fool, of course he could feel her sincerity.
Hence, every ti he ca face to face with the mother who had abandoned him, he would take i Feng’s side.
Compared to Xia Yehua, he trusted i Feng more.
But now...
He had realized that i Feng had set his own wife up.
He looked at the woman steadily. When the truth finally sank into him, he spoke, “Why did you do this?”
He needed a reasonable explanation.
No, actually, he could not think of any good reasons why i Feng would try to destroy his relationship with Xia Nuannuan.
When i Feng heard this, her eyes reddened imdiately and she bit her lip. After a mont, she said, “Zihao, I’m sorry.”
“Why? I just need a reason.”
i Feng hung her head and tears started to roll down her cheeks.
She took a deep breath and said after a pause, “Zihao, I feel that she’s not good enough for you.”
Shen Zihao was stunned imdiately when those words ca out.
He looked at i Feng with a shocked expression. “Aunty i, I thought all this ti that you had agreed to this marriage.”
She looked up at him and replied, “Yes, in the beginning. But after I t her father and mother, I no longer did! Because their family can’t be of any help to you.”
