  As Ye Chen took in the bustling night scene outside the window, a sense of desolation intensified as Ye Chen’s delicate and elegant features immersed in the darkness of the night.

  “Chen… What’s wrong with you?” Yun Ruoxi was a woman who knew the bigger situation. Bitter jealousy merely flitted past her countenance. She was always gentle and considerate in front of Ye Chen.

  “I saw my father today.” Ye Chen’s low voice revealed his cold hatred.

  Yun Ruoxi gently embraced him from behind. It had been so many years, but Ye Chen still easily lost control of his emotions whenever he met his father.

  “It’s okay, it’s okay.” Ruoxi’s gentle, feminine voice, like a mother’s touch, gently caressed Ye Chen’s heart. Ye Chen’s tensed muscles slowly relaxed.

  All Yun Ruoxi knew was that Ye Chen was an illegitimate child. His mother was a dancer and raised him alone for ten years. He only returned to the Ye family when he was ten.

  The First Young Master, Ye Yukun, was found unkempt and murdered on the Old Master Ye’s bed. The murder suspect was Ye Chen’s mother.

  When she was taken away by the police, she suddenly broke free from the detectives’ restraints and ran into an oncoming truck. She was killed on the spot.

  With the death of Ye Chen’s mother, Ye Yukun’s murder became a suspended case and remained unsolved.

  These were things Ye Chen would not naturally tell Yun Ruoxi.

  At the time of the murder, the infighting in the Ye family reared its ugly head. Scandals of a woman pleasuring both father and son and immoral romances spread like wildfire. Through his relationships, Old Master Ye suppressed the scandals and married his current wife ten days after the murder.

  The turmoil slowly and surely calmed down, but it took its toll on Ye Chen. He witnessed his mother being taken away, running into an oncoming truck and dying.

  Because of this incident, Ye Chen did not speak for three years.

  He was suffering from a serious mental illness.

  In the few years Yun Ruoxi followed Ye Chen, she never heard him mention a thing about his mother. In Ye Chen’s world, he seemed to be alone.

  Forever alone.
