"Fortunately, my father didn't starve me to death. Instead, he tricked his followers into caring for me, and I became another bargaining chip for his own gain! He claimed I was his adopted orphan, earning widespread praise and becoming a renowned philanthropist in Bluewater City. And until I was eighteen, I was deeply grateful for this foster father's upbringing. I adored him and trusted him blindly!" the nurse said with a wry smile. "Look at how good my father was at disguising himself! That's why I'm so good at it!"
"Have you known the fifth and eldest sons of the Zhu family for a long time?" Lan Ziye asked.
"The fifth young master of the Zhu family?" The nanny's cloudy eyes brightened a little. Her gaze was far-reaching, as if she could see through the air into the distant past. She said softly, "The fifth young master of the Zhu family is the most dazzling man I have ever seen. He is sunny and handsome. When he speaks to me, there is a smile on the corners of his eyes. It seems that there is nothing that his smile can't solve. When I am with him, I feel that there will never be darkness or coldness in this world!"
After saying this, the nanny looked at Lan Ziye and said, "Actually, at that time I already knew that I was my father's biological daughter, and I also knew how I came to be. At that time, my world was filled with deception, confusion, darkness and filth. I felt that the entire world was filled with malice towards me, and the Fifth Young Master was the only kindness this world had for me!"
"The Fifth Young Master wanted to invite Dad to the Zhu family, offering generous terms and a high position. At that time, I so much hoped Dad would agree to the Fifth Young Master's request, so that I could stay in the light forever and not have to live in darkness. But what I never expected was that my father's goal was not this. Money and status were no longer what he pursued. He wanted immortality, to have a very long lifespan like the demons. He wanted to become a demon!" The nanny gritted her teeth and said, "He met a demon king, and the demon king's condition was that he tricked the Fifth Young Master into his demon territory. That demon girl fell in love with the Fifth Young Master!"
"My father tricked the Fifth Young Master into going to the hilltop where the demon was! The Fifth Young Master is such a bright being, how could he be defiled by a demon? I had no choice but to tell Yan Ning, who was my best friend at the time. Yan Ning was close to the eldest son of the Zhu family, so naturally, he told the eldest son about it. The eldest son really took action. He found someone to rescue the Fifth Young Master and seriously injured the demon!" said the nanny.
"The Fifth Young Master knew I had saved him, and he asked me what I wanted in return. I told him about my father and the dark world I lived in. I wanted him to take me away from Bluewater City, anywhere, as long as I could stay by his side!" the nurse said. "I also told him that I knew his family was too high to marry a woman like me, and that I didn't need a formal status or anything else, as long as the Fifth Young Master could take me with him!"
"Fifth Young Master agreed." The nurse became excited as she spoke. "We clearly had an agreement, but then that demon came knocking. Since she couldn't get the Fifth Young Master, she set her sights on me. She said she'd marry me to a friend of hers in the mountains. If I agreed, she'd give her demonic energy to my father! It's obvious that the demon wanted revenge on me because I asked the eldest young master to save the Fifth Young Master, but my bastard, selfish father agreed anyway!"
