The Wen Family.
Wen Jing brought food to Warming, who lost her appetite after taking just two bites. With much persuasion from Wen Jing, Warming only managed to eat half of it before finally drinking half a bowl of nourishing soup under the threat and coaxing from Wen Jing, as well as her cute expressions.
She seldom slept; she spent most of her time sitting up. When she did sleep, memories flooded her mind, making both her body and soul exhausted.
Thinking about Du Di and Du Yueying's visit the other day and what Du Yueying had said made Warming even more devastated. For two days, she hardly dared to close her eyes to sleep for fear of seeing terrifying scenes flashing through her mind.
After eating, Warming flipped through her old photo album, which she had read countless times before. But now, no matter how many times she looked at them, they only made her feel heartache and a desire to cry...
Was she really not their daughter
From the abortion until today, one blow after another left her without tears; her grief reached its peak. Even crying seemed futile, and she didn't dare ask anyone for fear that confirming what she suspected would make things even worse.
When Mama Wen came upstairs again, she saw Warming flipping through old photo albums once more.
Lately, Warming had been frequently looking at her old photos. Whenever she had free time, she held the photo album close to her chest and looked at it. She had loved taking pictures from a young age, so there were many photo albums in their home—over ten volumes. Mama Wen remembered that Warming used to like middle school era photos best, but now she cherished the childhood photo albums as if they were treasures every day, which puzzled Mama Wen without prompting much thought, thinking perhaps Warming was just reminiscing about her child after losing it.
Mama Wen sat by the bedside and gently stroked Warming's face. Her poor child looked emaciated with no flesh on her cheeks.
Bones protruded prominently from her body.
"Why do you like looking at old photos" Mama Wen asked kindly, smiling as she gazed into Warming’s loving eyes. She bore such a striking resemblance to Mama Wen, especially her nose and mouth; there was no doubt that Warming was their biological daughter.
So gentle and kind a mother, how could she not be her real mother
"Nuannuan, Mother-in-law and Fei Mo are here. Do you want to see them"
Mother Wen came down the stairs and shook her head at Cheng Anya. Ye Feimo was in a daze with no reaction. Cheng Anya glanced at her son once before going upstairs herself; Nuannuan only wanted to see Ye Feimo, and nobody else.
Ye Feimo sat below waiting for Cheng Anya, his gaze fixed on the upper floor. Mother Wen saw him looking much thinner than before—after some days of seeming a little plumper, he had lost all that weight again. He looked extremely haggard. As an elder, it was heartbreaking to watch.
Mother Wen remembered how Cheng Anya had just said Fei Mo hadn't eaten anything yet; she had put together a bowl of soup for him. Ye Feimo didn’t move, but Wen Jing saw that and came up with a quick idea: "Brother-in-law, my sister drank some too. She hasn’t really eaten anything else recently—just this soup—and said it was tasty. Try it to see if you like it."
Ye Feimo took the bowl of soup and finished drinking every last drop.
Mother Wen praised Wen Jing’s cleverness, but she accepted the compliment without a shred of modesty.
Upstairs...
"Nuannuan, I know Fei Mo was wrong this time to cause you to lose your child. And I also know that some injuries can’t be remedied with an apology alone. You can hit him or scold him if you want, but Nuannuan—can we give him a second chance"
Nuannuan lowered her head and had no expression on her face; she made no comment. For the past few days, Cheng Anya had spoken to her every day, but Nuannuan almost never paid attention. Not only would she not speak to Cheng Anya, even Mother Wen received no words from Nuannuan.
No one knew what she was thinking.
Nuannuan’s silence was frightening; it always made Cheng Anya feel like she had already made a decision that Fei Mo simply couldn’t bear. She was the mother, and Fei Mo was the child whom she had been worried about since childhood. And there were also personal feelings involved. Perhaps age had softened some of the sharper aspects of her personality, so it was impossible for her to be completely objective in certain matters.
If she were thirty years younger, if something like this happened to her and Ye Sanshao, even if he pushed her down the stairs and she lost their child, whether it was intentional or not, she wouldn’t be able to forgive him.
Even if she forgave him,
she wouldn’t be able to live with him without any lingering resentment.
But now her thoughts were completely different.
If Nuwan planned on leaving Fei Mo, she really didn’t know how her son would deal with this blow. Seven years ago, that incident was enough for her; she didn’t want it to happen again, not at all.
So even if she had to beg Nuwan, she wanted to keep this wife for her son, though she knew the results wouldn’t be great.
Nuwan remained silent. Cheng Anya gently held her hand and said, "While you blame Fei Mo, think about his feelings as well. We all believe that you didn't do anything to wrong Fei Mo, but Fei Mo has been through something like this before, which caused him pain for seven years. You know what it meant to him when he saw the two of them together; it’s understandable that he lost control over his emotions. He never wanted you to continue acting or pursuing a career in showbiz. Your conflicts have always stemmed from this point, and they've only grown bigger with time. Fei Mo's heartache has also become more severe. When he saw the two of them together again, anyone would lose their composure. Even we elders who’ve seen it all can’t accept seeing our wives appear in front of us with other men. I know that he must have said some harsh things to you when he was angry, but could you not take those words to heart Can't you give him another chance"
Nuwan smiled bitterly and sarcastically as she looked down, but didn’t respond; Cheng Anya’s heart sank.
Nuwan pulled her hand away from Cheng Anya's grip and turned her head to look out the window at the blue sky and white clouds. Her expression was calm.
"Whether or not you forgive him, why don’t you see each other for a while You can let out your anger towards him," Cheng Anya suggested.
Nuwan shook her head.
Ye Feimo waited an hour before Cheng Anya came downstairs. Nuwan’s mother rushed to greet her and asked, "How did it go"
"She still refuses to speak."
Mrs. Wen sighed, "Mother-in-law, I really am sorry. Warm has always been spoiled by us and hasn't experienced such委屈, so she's acting a bit... please don't take it personally."
"How could that be I understand. This time it was Non-Mo who was wrong," Cheng Anya didn't intend to hide the truth from Mrs. Wen either, "You should have heard about what happened between Warm and Fang Liucheng at the hotel..."
"Warm wouldn’t do such a thing; I’ve asked Liucheng, he would never say that." Mrs. Wen’s face changed color, thinking Cheng Anya was blaming her daughter, she hurriedly defended her daughter, showing an unhappy expression.
Cheng Anya smiled, "Mother-in-law, don’t worry, I know she wouldn't do it. But Non-Mo's previous girlfriend once did something like this as well and he saw it happen right before his eyes, which was quite a shock to him leading to an argument between them. He got carried away in the heat of the moment with too much force and Warm accidentally fell down the stairs, losing the child... I’m truly sorry, it's my fault for not disciplining Non-Mo properly, resulting in this tragedy. I hope you can forgive him."
Wen Jing looked at Ye Nimoh in surprise, Mrs. Wen’s eyes reddened, "I told you, Warm is usually very kind-hearted, even a compliment would touch her heart, how could... it was indeed..."
Mrs. Wen blamed Ye Nimoh but considering this was an accident and no one wanted things to turn out this way, seeing his current disheveled appearance made her unwilling to blame him.
"Warm... if this is truly the case, Warm probably won’t..." forgive him, not with a human life at stake, how could forgiveness be that easy
"I understand. That's why I hope you can persuade Warm more. Non-Mo isn't a violent man; how he treats her, you know better than me. No one wanted things to turn out this way. He’s always been a quiet person, bottling up his feelings when upset and never expressing himself sincerely. He doesn’t understand how to ask for forgiveness from others either. If Warm stays silent, it won't go well for him either. I’m worried he's not good with words and can't console her; you know Warm better, if you think Non-Mo is a worthy husband, then please persuade Warm."
"I understand, don’t worry, I’ll talk to her," Mrs. Wen said. Whether Ye Nimoh was a good son-in-law or not, she had seen it in her eyes and knew what he was worth; besides, marriage and dating are two different things—both should be about reconciliation rather than separation.
Cheng Anya spoke to Mrs. Wen for the first time in many years with an almost apologetic tone. No matter how you looked at it, Non-Mo made a mistake first, being a quiet person as well; she had to say something on his behalf or her parents-in-law would blame him.
"Non-Mo, let's go back," Cheng Anya said softly, "How about we come again when Warm is in a better mood"wing demonic factors to take over him. In his mind, there was nothing but bloodthirsty hatred.The sky was so gloomy it seemed about to drip with water. Ye Tianyu hid up high, coldly watching the chaos...
