Ye Xi didn't understand the conflict between Lan and Chu Lingtian, but back then at Plum Garden, she could feel Lan's attachment to Chu Lingtian.
After all, to be able to make a woman's expression become vivid and gentle from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, it could only be in front of the man she loved.
Ye Xi slightly frowned, her moist eyes flashing with a complex light.
It was a bit awkward for a man in his forties to say love in front of his daughter.
However, he felt that it was necessary to embarrass himself and let his daughter know that he loved her mother dearly.
Therefore, Chu Lingtian was willing to confess his feelings in front of his daughter.
He believed that the best way to quickly establish a good impression in a person's heart was simply to be honest and ? Fury.
He didn't know if this method would work for others, but for his simple-minded daughter, it was very useful.
It could be seen from the slightly moved expression on her face.
Chu Lingtian took a breath and sighed. The man with the mighty aura of a military horse pretended to be pitiful in order to make his daughter accept him more quickly, "Girl, two years ago, when uncle returned to B City, he only had one goal, and that was to make your mother return to your uncle's side. At that time, your mother would be single, and I would be single. But your mother still doesn't want her uncle. "
"?" Ye Xi frowned even more as he looked at the pitiful Chu Lingtian. His lips moved for a long time before he managed to utter a word, "Uncle, you can't blame my mother."
Chu Lingtian glared at him with his black eyes, "Uncle knows. Your mother had a grudge. She wouldn't forgive her uncle for that. But lass, those weird uncles who don't know anything about that matter, uncle can't be bothered with it. Your mother can't blame your uncle. "
Ye Xi looked at him, "It was you who killed my uncle."
"Heh ?" Chu Lingtian laughed coldly, "The outside world has spread that I, Chu Lingtian, am ruthless, cruel and terrifying. It is as if I am a demon with a cold heart in everyone's eyes. They are all afraid of me, and I want their fear. I was mean to everybody, but your mother wasn't one of them. "
"I'll kill whoever makes your mother shed a tear, including myself. Your uncle is your mother's blood brother, I want to marry your mother, he is my uncle. Little girl, you said that I will make a move on my brother-in-law? "
"Don't I know that if your uncle died in my hands, your mother would ignore me for the rest of her life? "Heh ?"
Chu Lingtian laughed, but there was not a trace of warmth in his eyes, "Towards your uncle's death, uncle does not feel the slightest bit of guilt, nor will he feel apologetic. The only thing I hate about your uncle is hurting your mother. "
"Your mother was with me at the age of sixteen, and at the age of seventeen, she carried my child. At that time, your mother was still a child in your uncle's eyes, but she was still a child.
After saying that, Chu Lingtian suddenly stopped talking and looked at Ye Xi.
Ye Xi's face had already turned pale white, her small fists clenched tightly as she stared at Chu Lingtian.
What did he just say?
Chu Lingtian frowned, and silently looked at Ye Xi's small face which was turning white inch by inch.
He had intended not to tell her so early ?
But he probably wanted to let her know that she was his, Chu Lingtian's, daughter.
As such, he continued to speak in the same direction.
However, he did not regret it.
Chu Lingtian clenched Ye Xi's cold hands tightly, just in case she couldn't accept the idea of going for the door.
Ye Xi raised his breath, and then looked at Chu Lingtian with frightened eyes, "I, my mother, Huai, was pregnant with your child, seventeen years old?"
"Yes." Chu Lingtian carefully examined the changes in every inch of Ye Xi's expression, answering his question seriously.
"?" Ye Xi opened his mouth, his mind was quickly blown into a mess by the strong winds blowing from the atomic bomb's sweep.
Seventeen, seventeen, then she ?
Ye Xi's eyes quickly turned red, her small hands trembled, and she forcefully pulled her hands from his palms. Her voice trembled, "Release, release ?"
"Little girl." Chu Lingtian took a deep breath, and instead held onto Ye Xi's hand even more tightly, consoling her in a soft voice, "Girl, listen to uncle's words, stay calm."
Ye Xi shook her head in panic, her fair face appeared to be at a loss.
Chu Lingtian closed his eyes, and his voice turned hoarse, "Girl, uncle knows that you are a strong and good child, I beg of you, please calm down and listen to Uncle's story, okay?"
"?" Ye Xi's shook his head as his eyes were covered by layer after layer of mist. He could barely see Chu Lingtian's anxious face.
She bit down hard on her lower lip, the white of her teeth making her pale lips seem even paler. Her gums were trembling, and she pinched her palm with her fingertips, trying her best to remain calm. "Speak."
Chu Lingtian heaved a sigh of relief without batting an eyelid, and the low, mellow, slow male voice rang out slowly like a cello, "Back then Uncle did not know that your mother was pregnant with me. After your uncle died, your mother came to me like crazy, to fight me to the death. "
Chu Lingtian said, his voice obviously trembling, "Your mother was extremely thin at that time, and couldn't even close her eyes for a few days to rest. Her eyes were dark green, and the sockets of her eyes were deeply sunken. She is suffering from my child. I don't know. She hated me so much that she told me to die for her brother. I was so angry that I shoved the knife into her thin hand and aimed it at her heart, forcing her, forcing her to stab me. "
Chu Lingtian paused, unable to continue.
Ye Xi, on the other hand, gradually calmed down in the midst of his narration, and looked at his deeply furrowed brows in pain.
"Back then, when Lan Qian opposed your mother being with me, he was already very angry at her. Later on, because of your uncle's death, he vented his anger on your mother. Your grandmother is usually a very gentle woman, even to your mother. But she valued boys more than girls, and she liked your uncle more. She blamed your mother, too. And your aunt. Your mother was in that house, and she was forced to do it by those people. I knew she couldn't take it anymore, so I came looking for me, but I also forced her. "
Chu Lingtian's eyes were scarlet red, Ye Xi's hand was hurting from being squeezed by him, he gritted his teeth and endured.
"After that, your mother didn't see me, not even once. Not long after, your grandmother committed suicide, and Lan Qian completely shifted all of his anger onto your mother. At that time, your mother was already five months old, and it was impossible to hide it from her. He let your mother hit the baby, and your mother wouldn't let him. In the end, they had angered Lan Qian and chased her out of the Lan's Mansion. "
These were all things he learned from the investigation two years ago when he found out that Ye Xi was his son.
Chu Lingtian's voice was hoarse and when Ye Xi heard him struggling to speak, his chest also started to ache.
She could not imagine what kind of power her mother had relied on to survive that ordeal!
What she didn't know was that such a powerful force was a mother's desire to protect the child that had yet to be born in her womb, as well as a desperate hope to entrust it to her.
