The Pei Family was also a noble and prominent household in Dajin, and Pei Chong, holding the Pei Family army in his hands and occupying a high position, never once slighted Pei Jue. So how could he be considered as having a tragic background?
Feng Yun could not understand what Pei Yao was implying, gazing over with probing eyes.
Realizing her slip of the tongue, Pei Yao lowered her gaze, picked up her tea cup, and took a dainty sip.
After a pause, she set down her teacup and sighed,
"Our mother passed away early, and at the time, Ajue was still very young. Although he was deeply loved by our father, who was frequently away, the lack of a mother's care and absence of grandparents in the house... there was still something fundamentally lacking..."
Feng Yun's eyes shifted.
With this explanation, it was somewhat understandable.
However, Pei Yao's evasive gaze seemed to hide some unspeakable emotions, making it somewhat puzzling.
