Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

He Yang knew very well that it was definitely not an illusion.

That woman did not want him to be in that family.

Now that he thought about it, why did he run away from home? Was it not because of what that woman said to him?

She said, “In this family, you are the outsider. Your father and I are a couple, and your brother is the biological son of your father and I. You are smart enough to know that, right?”

“You’d better behave yourself in front of your father in the future, I don’t want to be your mother because you don’t deserve it. But in order to please your father, you have to get along with him, or your father will be driven away by you sooner or later,” she added.

“I won’t mistreat you or give you leftovers. On the contrary, I will take good care of you and let your father know how kind, considerate and generous I am. And you, in front of him, will be a very disobedient and rebellious child.”

“You want to expose me in front of your father? Funny… Do you think your father will believe me, or believe the words of a child like you?”

Yes!

It was that woman!

She had been trying every means to provoke him and make him oppose his father.

It was true that his father’s attitude towards him had been getting more and more impatient during those days.

But thinking about it carefully, he had indeed not done anything excessive towards him. At most, he had only looked at him with a disappointed gaze.

Now that he thought about it, that gaze was like an awl that pierced through He Yang’s heart.

Anger flashed through He Yang’s eyes, that woman was too good at acting.

In front of his father, she pretended to love him very much.

Once his father left, she would have a different expression.

“Damn it! He Yang, so you’re the dumbest person in the world!”

After understanding all of this, He Yang only felt his face turn red. He was simply too stupid to be saved.

“Hmph, father is also a fool, being played around by a woman! How annoying! I don’t have such a stupid father!”

He Yang grumbled. It was unclear if he was angry at himself or if he was angry because he had figured it out.

The first thing Ye Xing smelled when she woke up was the hospital’s disinfectant.

She looked around but did not see He Yang, she was a little anxious.

At that moment, a nurse came into the ward. Ye Xing asked hurriedly, “Pretty sister, is there any boy around my age that has been sent here?”

The nurse looked at Ye Xing in surprise, the little girl had bright eyes and white teeth. Her voice was soft, she seemed like a very lovable girl.

“Little girl, you’re also very pretty. Are you talking about the boy called He Yang?”

Hearing that name, Ye Xing’s eyes lit up. She nodded quickly, “Yes, yes, yes… how is he?”

“Oh, he’s fine. He woke up earlier than you. His family came to see him just now. Come, let me take your temperature.”

Hearing that He Yang was fine, Ye Xing heaved a sigh of relief and obediently cooperated with the nurse to take her temperature.

“Yes, the fever is gone.” The nurse looked at the thermometer and smiled. “But you still have to stay in the hospital for observation, in case the fever causes other complications.”

Ye Xing was a little absent-minded, because she suddenly noticed that something was wrong with the nurse’s words.

“Pretty sister, did you just say… his family?”

She carefully probed, afraid that she had misheard.

“Yes, his father is here. Oh, and his mother, a very beautiful woman.”

Ye Xing did not hear the rest of the sentence clearly.

Her mind was filled with disbelief.

He Yang actually had a father and mother? This thought seemed to have taken root, lingering in her mind..
