Ming Ansheng reached the car, and he bent slightly to open the door. He put Su Yue carefully in the car and was about to retract his arms.
Su Yue extended her arms and hugged him tightly.
The jacket slipped off her body and it revealed Su Yue’s body. It startled Ming Ansheng that he froze for a moment before hastily picking up the jacket to cover her.
Su Yue refused to let go of him and sobbed. “Why did they have to give birth to me?”
Ming Ansheng had no inkling what kind of life she led. He had met her only a couple of times.
But her words seemed to squeeze his heart painfully.
‘Why did they have to give birth to me…’
What kind of life did she lead for her to say such words?
Ming Ansheng raised his arms and left it hovering inches away from her body. After some hesitation, he gently patted her back. He consoled, “It’s all over.”
Su Yue finally bawled just like what a normal girl would react or behave after a traumatic experience.
It choked her words. “Mommy says I’m an illegitimate daughter, and no one wants me. And they said that my mommy was a mistress, so they locked me up and didn’t give me food to eat.”
It incensed Ming Ansheng when he heard her confession.
In society these days, it’s common for men to have extramarital affairs—not to mention, wealthy men.
Illegitimate children were quite common, and so everyone already had a rather indifferent attitude towards it. But what he couldn’t understand was why she had been ostracized in Country Y.
‘Mommy says I’m an illegitimate daughter, and no one wants me…’
He mulled over Su Yue’s words. He finally understood… the root of the problem lies with her mother.
Su Yue’s childhood shaped her character.
Ming Ansheng could only console her gently as she kept crying. “There will be plenty of people to love and dote on you in the future. Hush now and stop crying.”
His eyes accidentally glimpsed her bare skin, and he didn’t dare to imagine what would have happened to her if he had reached a minute too late.
Those evil men had caused such a traumatic experience for a young girl like her.
Who were those people? Who would be so wicked to harm such a young girl like her?
Su Yue was still sobbing badly.
Just when Ming Ansheng wanted to pat her once more, she suddenly let go of him.
Su Yue turned around and quickly buttoned and adjusted the jacket.
She used the sleeves to wipe her tears away. Then she sat down and hugged her knees. She sat huddled there without making another sound.
Ming Ansheng was about to call her name when he spotted the wound on her leg. He was visibly shocked. “Is your leg injured?!”
Su Yue was expressionless as she replied, “Yeah.”
Ming Ansheng was slightly exasperated when he heard her nonchalant reply. “You should express your emotions like how a normal girl would. It’s not embarrassing to show how sad or angry you are. Don’t learn from your arrogant third brother. He is too pretentious.”
He closed the door and walked to the driver’s seat.
Su Yue frowned and ignored his words.
Actually, her injury was hurting her; she had temporarily forgotten about the pain because of the trauma and shock earlier on.
“Send me to the hospital.” Su Yue casually glanced at Ming Ansheng’s good-looking face before bowing her head.
It was clear that she had recollected herself. Ming Ansheng’s lips curled in relief.
