{Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire (Chinese To English Translation)}

She saved his life during an accident, and he insisted on marrying her to repay the favor. Once the news got out, everyone wondered why a strong, powerful man like him would want to marry an ugly, worthless woman like her. In fact, she was far from ugly and a woman of many secrets. The only reason she had returned to her country with a secret identity was to investigate her mother's death. As each layer of her secrets were peeled away one by one, the people around her began to realize the truth-this woman is way tougher than her man!

Big Brother's Sweet Wife

Mu Wanyue was indeed her biological mother.


As Mu Xia heaved a long sigh, a scary thought suddenly dawned on her. 「Mom's only been married to Situ Hai, who's been recognizing me as his biological daughter. In this case, wouldn't it mean that Mom has… committed adultery? Situ Hai found out about it and killed her? Then again, he's not the type who would allow someone who's not his blood and flesh to enter the family.」 


It was then that Mu Xia realized she had a big mystery to solve.


She had returned to investigate her mother's death but to no avail. In addition, she now was confused about who her actual father was.


Luo Yi broke the silence. "It's still early. Why don't you two have a chat while I check if they've gotten any useful information from that guy?"


With that suggestion, Luo Yi went out and shut the door behind him, leaving Mu Xia and Ye Sijue alone in the ward.


With a wry smile, she looked at Ye Sijue. "You must be thinking that I'm a joke. Neither am I the glamorous Young Miss Mu nor Eldest Miss Situ. I'm just… an illegitimate child."


He frowned at her words. Putting on a stern face, he tried to correct her understanding. "I don't know if you're an illegitimate child. So what if you're one? To me, you are who you are."


Though he appeared to be icy-cold, his gaze was unexpectedly warm.


His unswerving attitude and that one firm sentence uttered had effectively cleared the doubts she had and given her the courage needed to sail through these trying times.


Ye Sijue had once again reminded her that she would always be Mu Xia, regardless of whose daughter she was.


He continued, "We can't choose our parents and family background, so that's no fault of yours. It's the adults who've made a mistake."


Biting her lips, Mu Xia shared, "From what I can remember, Mom wasn't that kind of a person… I don't know why… why would she do that."


Ye Sijue paused for two seconds. "Actually, there's something about your mom that I think you should know. I didn't tell you this earlier because I thought it'd be rude for me to say this."


Stunned, she lifted her head immediately. "About my mom? What's it about? I've looked up a lot of information about her before going back to the Situ family. I believe I know everything about her."


He shook his head lightly. "There's something not recorded in those files you read."


"Gossips shared amongst the socialites in Kyoto. It didn't cross my mind until I saw your DNA paternity report. Maybe you should hear this."


Clenching her fists, Mu Xia fretted. "Go on…"


He looked her in the eyes and articulated all the tittle-tattles about Mu Wanyue within the Kyoto social circles.


"You should know that your mom and Situ Hai got married in a flash. Based on her backgrounds, it would've deemed inappropriate for her to be married into the Situ family. The Situ family made a fortune from coal mines and then purchased properties in Kyoto. He got married with your mom not long after settling down here. Don't you think that this is so strange?"


"Rumor has it that your mom lost her virginity to a thug when she went hiking one day. As soon as she found out that she was pregnant, she looked for the Situ family anxiously…"


Mu Xia's brows were knitted together. "You're saying that my mom was rape… that's why she had me? She married my dad in order to give me a legitimate identity?"
