Chapter 341: The Belated, Bone-Deep Regret

When he saw Huo Xiyao's mother, in order to support herself and Huo Xiyao, finally took that unbearable one-way street.

He saw her constantly loathing her own dirtiness, endlessly blaming herself for letting Huo Xiyao down.

He saw Huo Xiyao, from a young age, suffer all kinds of bullying and humiliation, simply because he had no father, simply because of his mother...

The old man's hands trembled as he covered his chest, finding it difficult even to breathe.

Back then, he only vaguely knew that Huo Xiyao's trouble had stemmed from severely injuring someone who was sexually involved with his mother in an improper way. He thought perhaps his son, now grown up, couldn't tolerate another man encroaching on his mother.
