Chapter 1365: Heartless
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
He Meichun’s heart thumped so quickly. Was Duan Yanhao questioning her or trying to confirm it?
He Meichun had never imagined that Duan Yanhao would find out about this matter. Deep down, she couldn’t help but feel incredibly guilty. She didn’t dare to confirm if Duan Yanhao had truly found out about the truth or was merely putting on a front.
When He Meichun raised her head, she immediately noticed Duan Yanhao’s cold expression. It made her heart race even faster.
He Meichun was at a loss for words. Swallowing, she stuttered, “Yanhao… You… What are you saying? You’re scaring me. Jiaojiao is my dear child, my biological daughter. Why would you say something like that?”
At that moment, Duan Yanhao already knew the truth. His lips curled up as he smirked coldly. “Aunt, you claimed that Jiaojiao is your biological daughter, but what were you doing when she pa.s.sed away? What have you done for the past six years? Have you visited her even once?”
He Meichun’s face turned pale immediately. Her heart was shuddering because of Duan Yanhao.
She was indeed guilty and truly hadn’t visited Jiaojiao at all. She hadn’t been to her grave at all because she felt afraid. She was guilty, so she didn’t dare to go.
If she were to go, she would be scared awake when she had nightmares.
However, so many years had pa.s.sed, and Duan Yanhao surely couldn’t have found out so much.
That day when Chi Jiaojiao pa.s.sed away, she was still shopping with her friends. She pretended to be depressed and closed her doors, refusing to meet anyone. After that, behind closed doors, she gorged herself with food and slept soundly.
He Meichun intentionally cried, saying, “I haven’t been visiting Jiaojiao? She’s my biological daughter. How can I not care about her at all? Yanhao, even if you disrespect me, you can’t interrogate me like that.”
As Chi Jiajia snapped out of her shock, she went mad and tried to claw at Bai Yaoyao. However, Duan Yanhao stopped her and immediately pulled Bai Yaoyao behind him, putting on a strong defense.
He Meichun’s blood was boiling. Disregarding her image, she screamed, “Yanhao, Jiaojiao is my biological daughter, and so is Jiajia. You’ve hurt one of my daughters, and you still want to hurt Jiajia too. Because of another woman, you’ve grown heartless. Don’t forget that you’re also the son-in-law of the Chi family. This unknown woman wants to replace my daughter? Dream on! If the elders of the Duan family were to find out about this, you know what will happen too.”
Chi Jiajia was He Meichun’s weak spot. Now that Chi Jiajia was sad, He Meichun went all out for her sake.
Since Duan Yanhao was a young master who had both strength and martial art skills, she stood no chance at all. With Duan Yanhao defending this vixen continuously, she could only use the Duan family against him.
Hearing that woman talk to Duan Yanhao like that, Bai Yaoyao was livid. She grabbed Duan Yanhao’s arm and stepped in front of him.
She retorted aggressively, “Old lady, Chi Jiaojiao isn’t your biological daughter at all. You used your non-biological daughter as a stepping stone for your biological one. You’re truly cruel, and I wonder what made you like that. You said that Yanhao is heartless, but I think you’re the heartless one, you wicked old witch. The Chi family’s son-in-law? What a joke! Why is an old witch like you trying to vie for Yanhao? Let me tell you honestly, dream on!”
Bai Yaoyao hooked an arm around Duan Yanhao’s and placed the other on her hip. She glared at He Meichun with murderous intent.
Fortunately, she had undergone training in the military, so her glares were sufficiently fierce.
