Gu Jin only realized after her death that the only one who collected her corpse and ruthlessly avenged her was the 'little wolf cub' she had once shown kindness to with a meal.
After ...
Chapter 607: The Gate to the New World
After a long time, An Feng finally adjusted her mood.
How could this woman who had experienced many ups and downs in her life not see An Mingji's rejection?
An Feng cleared the mess on her face and stared at An Mingji with a smile.
She asked, "What's your name, kid?"
"An Mingji——"
"Mingji, Mingji..." An Feng murmured the name, and then showed a gratified expression to An Mingji: "This name was given to you by your sister, right? It seems that she has high expectations for you."
She was not prepared to hear An Mingji's response, and began to introduce herself to him: "My name is An Feng, and your grandmother An Ke is my sister, my biological sister. My sister and I are the only two children in the An family's main branch. My sister and I have been separated for more than 50 years. It was before the war, when she sent me abroad when I was 17 years old."
The rejection in An Mingji's eyes faded a little. He looked at the old woman in front of him and knew clearly that according to seniority, she was his great aunt.
An Feng's eyes showed a nostalgic look, and she continued: "If I didn't have my sister, I would have died long ago. I have been wandering abroad for the first half of my life, and I have suffered a lot, but I dare not return to China, for fear that I would lose my life if I came back.
It was not until I had some support abroad that I dared to return to China to look for my sister. Unfortunately, the An family, a family of scholars and wealth, ended up in ruins, and my sister’s life or death was unknown. Because she was involved in the rectification of that era, I looked for my sister for many years but couldn’t find her. There was no news at all—"
When she said this, An Feng's voice became a little hoarse, and she also revealed a bit of sadness.
Gu Jin and An Mingji sat opposite her and listened quietly to her talking about the past.
Until An Mingji asked: "Why did grandma send you abroad? What did you do?"
He had never heard his grandmother mention the existence of An Feng, and he didn't even know that his grandmother had a younger sister.
Although An Feng said she was grandma's sister, he couldn't believe her just based on her words.
An Feng raised the corners of her lips, and a wicked and sarcastic smile appeared on her face, "I fell in love with a servant in my house."
"..."Gu Jin.
"..."An Mingji.
At first, the two were puzzled. After all, in that era, even if a lady and a servant were in love, they should not be forced to this point of life and death.
Until An Feng revealed his identity as a servant, the two were dumbfounded. This was really... exciting!
An Mingji is still in the early stages of his development in relationships and is at the level of an elementary school student.
Hearing the shocking words from my aunt in front of me, I was so shocked that my eyes widened.
He even wondered in his heart whether he was hallucinating or there was something wrong with his ears.
This really opened the door to a new world for him.
An Feng didn't care about these things at all. At the blooming age of seventeen, she relied on the wealthy background of the An family at that time and was very ostentatious.
Even when entangled with servants, he did not know how to cover up at all, which can be said to be wanton.
The An family is a scholarly family, so how could they tolerate her smearing the family like this?
When her father found out, he wanted to tie her up and drown her in the river, but her elder sister knelt down and begged her father, saying that she would persuade her younger sister to correct her behavior.
The maid beside her was not as lucky as her. She was dealt with immediately and there was probably no one to collect the body.
If the other party had not been dealt with immediately, An Feng might have really obeyed her family's advice.
But she still died, which became the source of An Feng's rebellion.
She began to challenge her father and vowed not to change.
Seeing how stubborn she was, her father, who was not willing to kill her after his initial anger, decided to hand her over to the clan members.
