Originally, everything was planned out perfectly.

The old man also told the family he was engaged to the truth: the woman was a eunuch. Neither of them cared, and she married into the family while pregnant, so they could make a family. Who knew that Ye Yun's mother had such a strong personality and insisted on running away from the marriage.

Not long after, he returned, looking completely out of control…

"Yun girl, don't dwell on those old, trivial matters anymore. Everything's fine now," Ye Jian'an said, mistaking Ye Yun's desire to find her father.

Ye Yun said, "I'm not pursuing this matter; I just want to find my mother."

"Looking for your mother?"

"Yes, my mother just disappeared, not died. The first time she disappeared, she went to find that educated youth. So why couldn't she have gone to find that person again the second time she disappeared?"

Ye Jian'an also saw Ye Yun's persistence.

He sighed helplessly, scratched his head, and said, "What was that educated youth's name again...?"

Ye Yun's heart tightened.

Ye Jian'an scratched the back of his head, just like Fan the Cripple, and asked in bewilderment, "It's been too long, I think it's called... something like Mu..."
