Du Di looked at the warmth in surprise before his expression turned resentful. How could Yingying, this thoughtless girl, tell these things to Warmth No wonder she had come looking for him to verify them. What else did she say

"What else did Yingying say"

Seeing Du Di's face, Warmth felt deeply hurt. She anxiously grabbed his sleeve and said, "Tell me this isn’t true. It absolutely can't be true. Why am I doomed to marry someone who won't live past thirty That doesn't make sense! And what does the butterfly on my shoulder have to do with a curse Du Di, tell me. Don't leave me in the dark like this; explain everything!"

Du Di gently held her hand. Despite the hot weather, her hand was cold. Warmth must be very worried about Ye Feimo, which is why she urgently wanted to find him. Looking at her anxious expression, Du Di felt that she was a kind woman whom fate had been unfair to, making her suffer so much.

"What else did you discover"

Warmth froze and asked, "Is there anything I don't already know"

Du Di sighed. He knew that he couldn’t keep it a secret any longer. Holding her cold hand, he softly said, “I originally didn’t intend to tell you this, but since Yingying has told you, I might as well be frank. Yes, your original surname was Long….”

Du Di explained the background of the conflicts and enmity between the Long, Du, and Bai families to Warmth, as well as events from over two decades ago. At that time, Warmth was still a child with no memories at all, so she had none of it in her mind. Yet she believed deeply what he said.

She didn't know why but she just believed him. Moreover, when Du Di mentioned the curse, something stirred within her heart. She remembered the blood-stained butterfly from her dream and felt a burning sensation on her shoulder where the birthmark was located as if it were on fire; it was very uncomfortable. Only by stopping herself from thinking about that terrifying scene did she feel better.

Curses.

That day, Doudi had asked her if she believed in fate and curses

She said she didn’t believe in fate but did believe in curses.

Deep down, she might have believed it after all.

"You mentioned the Aegean Sea" Warm eyes narrowed. The Aegean Sea... every September, shortly after her birthday, her mommy would always go to Athens alone... Father had never accompanied her; she would stay there for one or two months, saying that she was visiting a friend. Warm’s mom had talked about this friend for many years, praising how intelligent, kind, beautiful, and capable the friend was. In Warm’s memory, Mom's friend seemed like a goddess, perfect with no flaws.

But she had never met her mother’s friend in person.

Her birthday was fast approaching; her mom had already booked a flight to Athens long ago. This year was no exception; despite such significant events happening, her birthday passed without much notice, yet she didn’t hear Mom mention that she wouldn’t be going to Athens this time either.

Who is she visiting Who exactly is this friend of hers

Could it be the descendant of the Dragon family Doudi mentioned Her real mother

If so, why hadn't she come to see her

If so, why haven't there been any messages all along.

Too many questions were hidden in her warm heart, causing her to instantly become confused and unsure of what to believe. However, after calming down, it seemed that everything was insignificant.

"Is there a way to解除這個詛咒 Apart from leaving him, are there any other methods" Warm asked Du Di, feeling very nervous with cold sweat on her forehead.

Du Di shook his head, "I don't know."

Warm's face turned pale, and her fingertips trembled slightly. With a faint smile, she leaned against the long bench and fell silent, seemingly losing interest in any topic.

Du Di explained to Warm as much as possible about what was going on with the Dragon family.

"There are people who can live past thirty... That's..."

"Yes, it's a member of my Du family." Du Di said with a smile as he looked at Warm and reached out to hold her hand once again. "Warm, do you know You were already engaged to me even before you were born. Your mother and my mother have always been very close friends since childhood, so they arranged our engagement early on. When I saw Auntie Long was pregnant years ago, I was looking forward to having a little sister."

"Engagement" Warm looked at Du Di in surprise. This detail Du Yueying did not mention; Du Di guessed that she had not told him this, so he might as well finish the story. "Wu Shuang saw how pretty your butterfly tattoo was and got one for herself, which my parents noticed, so I guessed they know about it too. As for the butterfly tattoo itself, I wasn't aware of that. I am indeed very familiar with the Dragon family, including knowing about the butterfly curse, but there's no record regarding the butterfly birthmark."

He glanced at Warm and smiled, "Did you know The daughters of the Dragon family never show this mark to others, even on hot days they keep it tightly covered. Very few people get to see it. I knew that the heir of the Dragon family had a butterfly birthmark somewhere on their body, but didn't know where exactly. When I saw your butterfly tattoo on your shoulder initially, I didn't think much about it and certainly didn't connect the dots. Besides, many people nowadays have tattoos."

warm smile, birthmark…

Indeed, who would have thought of that.

"Is there really no way to break the curse" Warm asked mournfully. She had never imagined she would encounter such a thing; instead of her own life being cursed to end before thirty, it was her husband's.

Dudi didn't answer as Warm’s face darkened.

"You're so focused on Ye Feimo. Have you ever thought about yourself" Dudi asked. She clearly felt heartbroken and sorrowful over losing the child. Though both parties were at fault, Warm's grief surely wasn’t less than Ye Feimo’s. Yet she could let go of it so quickly, only worrying if Ye Feimo might die; she truly loved Ye Feimo deeply. But such a state of mind for her was also heart-wrenching.

No matter how bitter or painful the experiences were, she would remember what was good and be forgiving to others.

"There are priorities in everything. Compared to life, anything else is insignificant," Warm said calmly, watching a group of children playing happily nearby with a faint smile. "Look at them laughing so joyfully; everyone only gets one chance at life."

Dudi was silent. Warm understood his meaning—there was no way to break the curse. So that's it.

She clenched her fist tightly, then let go. Her expression remained calm.

"I want to know more about the Long Family. Can you tell me" Warm asked with a smile, tilting her head. Dudi smiled back; of course he could. She was originally part of the Long Family and had the right to know everything related to it.h him.
