The story was too complicated, full of parental grief and just how hard those days had been.
Li Jinnian wanted to tell Ye Jian that he wanted her to change her mind and stop resisting.
"The story's a bit long, and it concerns a number of old people. It'll take half an hour or so. Just give half an hour to finish, will you?"
Ye Jian didn't just resist. She resisted so much that she didn't want to hear a word from Li Jinnian. Her eyes were cold as she said in a low voice, "I don't want to hear it, nor am I interested. Let go, Captain Li!"
"Why not? Is it because you already have the answer in your heart but you don't want to listen to it?" Li Jinnian didn't let go. He could see not only disgust in her eyes but also deep sorrow and hatred.
In fact, it was normal for her to bear hatred for this because no one knew that his aunt had actually had his uncle's child before she left!
Ye Jian looked at him calmly. "Captain Li, why should I listen? The story you want to tell has nothing to do with . Why should I listen?" Why should she listen to a story that had nothing to do with her?
Her father was Ye Xinfan. There was no one else!
"If you're here to visit Captain Xia, you'll have to co back later. He needs all the rest he can get. I won't continue entertaining you here. I'm sorry." She refused to go into the subject, and neither did she want to.
Seeing that she was determined, a trace of grief flashed across Li Jinnian's cold face. Then, he moved aside and said calmly, "I'm sorry to have disturbed you.
"You're just so much like my aunt and uncle. None of my maternal grandparents have ever seen my aunt, and this photo is the only thing my aunt ever left for my uncle. My grandmother grabbed my mother's hand before she died, hoping my mother would bring my aunt ho. Unfortunately, my mother never found my aunt until she died.
"I'm sorry. I was too anxious and I ended up disturbing you."
Ye Jian, who was holding the doorknob, paused. She turned around and nodded at Li Jinnian. "It's okay."
"My aunt's na is far different from your mother's, so I might be wrong." Li Jinnian took out the photo again and turned it over to look at the bottom. The words 'Red Plum' were written on it with a fountain pen. He looked at it for a while.
The mont Ye Jian pushed the door open and returned to the ward, he said softly, "Our entire family only knows that my mom goes by the na of Red Plum, but we don't even know her real na."
'No, that's not right. You guys don't even know my mother's real na. 'Red Plum' is just her code na. It's like how your code na is Demon King and mine is Azure Bird.
'You don't even know my mother's real na. That man… That man clearly never thought of marrying my mother!'
After closing the door, Ye Jian was expressionless. That man didn't even ntion her mother's na to his family. When he left, he didn't even reach out to her mother. He just left silently. It was obvious that that man had only wanted to play with her mother's feelings!
She knew that she was not her father's biological daughter and that her mother was already pregnant when she married her father, but so what?!
Her father's na was Ye Xinfan. He was an honest farr who doted on her when she was young.
Li Jinnian left. His tall and straight back was filled with faint sorrow. He was sad over the tragic past of his maternal grandfather's family.
None of them knew that their aunt had given birth to a child for their uncle. No one knew, not even their uncle.
