Before coming here, Qiu Ruoxi had repeatedly warned Ye Xunhuan not to trust Xiahou Yuzhu's words too much.
Now, as Xiahou Yuzhu asked such a question, Ye Xunhuan immediately became alert. He believed Qiu Ruoxi would never harm him.
Suddenly, Ye Xunhuan's face, originally full of smiles, immediately dimmed: "My mother is no longer around, and I've never met my father; he's probably gone too, I guess!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan's words, Xiahou Yuzhu was slightly taken aback and then quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that you..."
"It's okay!" Ye Xunhuan shook his head with a bitter smile, "I'm used to it!"
Xiahou Yuzhu looked at Ye Xunhuan, as if trying to detect any lie on his face, but after a long while, she was disappointed.
She couldn't see anything from Ye Xunhuan's face.
"In the future, if you don't mind, you can think of your aunt as your mother," Xiahou Yuzhu said softly.
Ye Xunhuan gave a broad grin and cautiously asked, "Can I?"
