Aunt Li waited on the second floor for a while before knocking on Wen Yixing's bedroom door.

"Madam, the master asked me to tell you that the old lady will be coming over tonight."

Wen Yixing was wearing pajamas. She had just taken a shower and her face was rosy. However, Aunt Li noticed that she was not in a good state today. Her eyes were dull, she seemed absent-minded, and she didn't say anything.

Seeing that Wen Yixing did not react, Aunt Li called out twice more, "Madam, Madam."

Wen Yixing then came to her senses, "Where's Yao Yao?"

"Young Master hasn't finished school yet, he should be back soon." After Aunt Li finished speaking, she continued to wait for Wen Yixing to speak.

At this time of day, Wen Yixing would usually tell her what dishes to prepare and give her some instructions. But today, Wen Yixing didn't speak to her. When Aunt Li looked up, she found that Wen Yixing was lost in thought again.

Aunt Li has worked here for five or six years, so she naturally understands that there seems to be some problems between the husband and wife. For example, when the husband comes home at night, he almost always stays in the study to handle official business, and he has very little communication with his wife.

Although they are husband and wife, the husband always maintains a vague politeness and distance towards his wife.

However, the wife is always very good to her husband. She insists on cooking a bowl of stomach-soothing porridge for him every day. She takes care of all his affairs herself. Whenever the husband or the old lady comes home for dinner in the afternoon, the wife always cooks for him herself. She even goes to the market to buy the ingredients herself every time.

Thinking about this, Aunt Li recalled the scene she had just witnessed downstairs.

She could see clearly that a woman's earring had fallen out of the man's pocket.

Seeing that Wen Yixing was still somewhat absent-minded and lost in thought, Aunt Li opened her mouth, hesitated for a long time, and did not tell Wen Yixing about this.

As for the couple's affairs, she's just Aunt Li in the family, so it's best not to interfere.

Wen Yixing didn't say anything more. She suddenly turned around, went into the house, hurriedly changed her clothes, put on her coat, and rushed downstairs.

Aunt Li, who was following behind her, was a little confused, and followed Wen Yixing downstairs. "Madam, where are you going?"

"Yao Yao, I'm going to pick you up!" Wen Yixing's voice was a little hoarse, and there was even a hint of crying in it.

No one knows that since returning home, Wen Yixing has had a strange voice in her mind, a voice that says it is her system.

The system told her that this world was actually a book, and she was the cowardly biological mother of the villain in the book who died young. After her death, her husband Fang Shiyan married her white moonlight Jiang Ruyue without hesitation.

Fang Shiyan was busy with work and could not take care of his son all the time. His son lacked love at a young age, which led to psychological distortion. Later, he did some wrong things and met a tragic end.

Wen Yixing didn't believe it at first, but then she had a dream.

In her dream, she saw her child grow up. The once lively and cheerful little boy always had a cold face. He wore a black vest and a black hat, and his strong arms were covered with dark blue tattoos. He held a dripping knife in his hand, and his face, which resembled hers by seven parts, was filled with ferocity.

She also dreamt that her son was in a cold prison, touching her yellowed photograph, and silently breaking down in tears.

That's her child!

The dream was terrifyingly real. Wen Yixing could even clearly recall various details. When she thought of her child's gloomy face in prison, Wen Yixing felt as if her heart was being squeezed, and she felt a sharp pain.

"Madam, Madam, what's wrong with you...?" Aunt Li, who was following behind, was stunned. To be honest, this was the first time she had seen Wen Yixing so out of control since she came here.

Wen Yixing has always had a very good temper and almost never argues with others.

When Wen Yixing first married into the family seven years ago, Fang Shiyan's mother was very dissatisfied with her. After all, the two families were very different in terms of their financial situation. Fang Shiyan's family was wealthy and well-known in the industry, while Wen Yixing was just a girl who came from the mountains.

The old lady had a bad temper, and Fang Shiyan's sister was also spoiled and unreasonable.

Wen Yixing faced some difficulties after marrying into the family, but she had a gentle temperament and never said anything. She did what she was supposed to do, and over time, everyone gradually accepted her.

--

The noise downstairs was loud enough for Fang Shiyan to hear clearly from his study. He disliked noise and rarely heard such chaotic sounds at home.

Fang Shiyan vaguely heard Wen Yixing calling Yao Yao. He got up impatiently, opened the study door, and looked down from the second floor.

His gaze quickly settled on Wen Yixing, who was changing her shoes in the entryway.

Wen Yixing's figure is not good. Ever since she gave birth, she seems to have been like this. She is a little chubby and doesn't know how to dress up. She was only wearing a brown coat.

Normally gentle and calm, she seemed to have been through something today. She hurriedly changed her shoes, not even having time to style her hair, and her eyes were red, as if she had been crying.

As Fang Shiyan looked at Wen Yixing's figure, the image of that graceful figure that often appeared on billboards gradually surfaced in his mind. Just a few hours ago, they had met in the dressing room.

After many years apart, Jiang Ruyue seemed to have changed a lot, yet she also seemed to have remained the same.

When they met again, she could still smile carefree and say to him, "Fang Shiyan, it's been a long time."

Fang Shiyan could feel the change in himself; he couldn't control his feelings for Jiang Ruyue.

However, he is now married and has children.

Fang Shiyan put his hand in his pocket, where there was a small pearl earring. He held it tightly, but suddenly felt a little irritated.
