Jian Yixue looked up at the sky full of fireflies and recalled her past.
"Before I was five years old, I had a family that I considered to be quite happy. My mother and Aunt Qiu took good care of my life together."
When I was five years old, I don't know what happened, but my mother and Aunt Qiu disappeared without a trace. Later, the maid told me that my mother had died in a car accident and would never come back.
I felt like the sky had fallen. I didn't believe the maid's words and frantically searched for Aunt Qiu, wanting to get a denial from her. But I searched the whole house and couldn't find her. I was so sad and heartbroken that I cried myself unconscious.
When I woke up again, it was the next day. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Jian Mingpeng sitting by the bed. I asked him if my mother had just gone out and hadn't died. Jian Mingpeng told me that my mother was dead and that I should accept this fact.
I couldn't accept it, I cried my heart out, and then I fainted again.
Jian Yixue paused slightly before continuing, "After waking up, I stopped eating and drinking. I couldn't accept the fact that my mother was gone, and I had to rely on intravenous nutrition to stay alive."
Later, Jian Mingpeng appeared in front of me with that woman. I couldn't accept what had happened to my mother, and seeing Jian Mingpeng's actions, I fought back desperately.
The end result was that I was sent to the countryside, where I was all alone and destitute, incredibly heartbroken, and wanted to end my life. Finally, I jumped into the river, but the village chief saved me, took me in, comforted me, and cared for me, which is how I survived.
After Jian Yixue finished speaking, the chill around her increased considerably.
Ye Mohan, standing beside her, held Jian Yixue's hand tightly, trying to transfer his body heat to her.
After hearing Jian Yixue's words, his heart felt as if it were being gnawed at by ants. Although he knew that Jian Yixue's past was unfortunate, he never expected it to be so painful.
He also lost both parents at a young age, but he still has his grandfather's care and protection, and his daily life is taken care of by a dedicated person.
As the heir of the Ye family, and with the Ye family backing him up, no one dared to bully him. Apart from his mental deficiencies, everything else was fine.
Compared to Jian Yixue's past, his life can be described as paradise.
Ye Mohan looked at Jian Yixue lying beneath him, his eyes filled with even more tenderness. If he had met her sooner, would she have had to endure this pain alone?
His girl has suffered!
"It won't happen again. I will love you well, and I'll love you too, including my mother-in-law!"
Ye Mohan confessed his love with deep affection, wishing he could bear everything for her.
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan and didn't miss the heartache in his eyes.
"Yes, I believe you! Those hardships are all in the past, and I've made it through them all. Life has its ups and downs; I've just experienced hardship before happiness," Jian Yixue comforted her.
She didn't want to see Ye Mohan saddened by this; he wasn't the one who caused this suffering, and he shouldn't blame himself like this.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan felt even more heartbroken.
However, he knew that this was Jian Yixue's good intention, so he returned to normal and nodded.
Jian Yixue continued, "Later, I lived with the village chief for a while. Then I met my master by chance. Most of my medical skills were passed down from him. He took care of me like a father for five years and taught me medicine for five years. Later, when my master saw that I had learned enough, he left to travel around the world. I haven't seen him since."
Later, during an outing, I encountered Youfeng, who was severely injured. Seeing his serious condition, I rescued him. After he recovered, he told me that he was an assassin from the [Youyue] organization, and that he had been injured while on a mission. He asked if I was interested in joining their organization.
At that time, I was still inexperienced and agreed to the suggestion. Later, I went to H country with him and stayed there for more than five years. That's where Youluo and the others met.
Later, I grew tired of that kind of life and semi-retired, returning to my old rural home to live a pastoral life. I worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and when I got bored, I would go to town to see the lively atmosphere.
This continued until Grandpa proposed marriage. You know what happened after that, so I won't go into details.
After hearing this, Ye Mohan was somewhat shocked, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
He never imagined that Jian Yixue's past would be so magical and full of hardships.
His wife was actually an assassin?
I wonder how desperate she must have been to take that path of living on the edge.
Although she spoke lightly, Ye Mohan knew that she must have suffered a lot behind the scenes.
Recalling Chu Yi's words at the party that day, it's no wonder that even Chu Yi couldn't find her information despite using his connections in the military. She wasn't even in the country, and the identity she was using was probably not her real one, so how could anyone find her?
Seeing that Ye Mohan hadn't spoken for a long time, Jian Yixue looked up at him and asked, "Are you scared?"
Ye Mohan, who was lost in his own thoughts, was first taken aback, and then looked at Jian Yixue in his arms with a puzzled look.
"What?"
"I am an assassin. I don't know how many lives I have on my hands. Although they all deserved to die, my hands are indeed covered in blood."
Jian Yixue looked at Ye Mohan with a serious expression and said.
Jian Yixue felt that it was normal even if Ye Mohan found her scary.
After all, not many people can like someone like her.
She hadn't told Zhao Heng about these things, and now she didn't want to hide them from Ye Mohan, nor did she want him to hear various versions of her story from other people.
Husbands and wives should be honest with each other.
Right now, she only hopes that Ye Mohan won't distance himself from her because of this.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mohan understood and couldn't help but smile, his affection tinged with seriousness, "How could I be afraid? I love you and cherish you so much. I only regret that I met you too late, leaving you to silently endure so much alone."
Hearing Ye Mohan's words, Jian Yixue was very happy, but she still wanted to confirm, "Really? My hands are covered in..."
"Does Xue'er think that I, the head of the Ye family, have a clean record? Putting aside everything else, since I came to power, I don't know how many people's interests I have touched, and I have survived countless assassination attempts. Those people will certainly not have a good ending."
Jian Yixue was interrupted by Ye Mohan before she could finish speaking, and was somewhat surprised to hear Ye Mohan's words.
Although Ye Mohan's words were not as straightforward as Jian Yixue's, anyone with discerning eyes could still understand the meaning behind them.
In her past life, she rarely paid attention to Ye Mohan, so she never thought about these issues. But now that Ye Mohan had said this, she realized it.
