And my father never cared about social status, otherwise he wouldn't have married my mother.
Later he learned that Zi Tingnan had a half-brother, and that his father was being threatened by that brother.
The last time Tian Jiangling saw Zi Tingnan, Zi Tingnan cried and said to him, "I'm sorry, Jiangling, I shouldn't have provoked you. How could someone like me provoke others..."
Tian Jiangling panicked, "Tingnan, what's wrong? Don't cry, tell me what's wrong."
Zi Tingnan just cried, telling him not to ask.
Tian Jiangling didn't dare to ask any more questions. He hugged her and comforted her, telling her not to worry and that he would think of a solution.
But before he could come up with a solution, he met his demise.
A man claiming to be Zi Tingnan's brother appeared, stepping on Tian Jiangling's body, and said, "How dare you touch her!"
Why are you against us?
The man didn't reply, his tone icy, "She's mine, and you, you deserve to die."
Tian Jiangling, a teenager, was no match for the bloodthirsty man and died silently.
"You got off easy."
"If I wasn't afraid she wouldn't believe you committed suicide, I would have made your death even more gruesome."
After the man left, news of Tian Jiangling's suicide by poisoning, caused by heartbreak, spread throughout the college.
Zi Tingnan was heartbroken. She reappeared six months later, looking haggard. The man finally found her, shaking her and demanding, "Nannan, where did you go? Where is that bastard?"
Zi Tingnan looked at the man, whose eyes were lifeless, and said, "Ye Xiujie, you will be punished."
He actually threatened her with her father's life, leaving her no choice but to return.
Ye Xiujie wouldn't listen. Gritting his teeth, he asked again, "Where is that bastard?"
Zi Tingnan laughed, a bleak laugh, her eyes lifeless, murmuring, "I hate you, I hate you..."
"My child, haha, is long gone. You owe me my child..."
"Nan Nan!"
She collapsed, but he breathed a sigh of relief; it was best that the bastard was gone.
After Zi Tingnan woke up, she asked Ye Xiujie, "Where is Father? I want to see him."
"He's dead."
His tone was completely devoid of emotion.
What?!
Zi Tingnan dug her fingernails into her palm. "Ye Xiujie, you're not human!"
"Yes, I am not human."
Zi Tingnan closed her eyes and refused to look at him. "I need to offer incense to my father."
"good."
Zi Tingnan's father committed suicide, and before he died, he felt guilty for implicating his daughter.
Zi Tingnan was supposed to keep vigil for her father for three days, but Xiu Jie wouldn't allow it because she was too weak.
But in the end, he didn't survive. The blow was too great, and he had no will to live. Despite Ye Xiujie's daily care, he still passed away in less than half a month.
From then on, Ye Xiujie went mad. He appeared normal on the outside, but secretly he took pleasure in torturing people.
It can only be said that being loved by Ye Xiujie was Zi Tingnan's tragedy.
Although Zi Tingnan's family was complicated from a young age, her parents treated her very well. However, she had a sinister older brother left by her father's ex-wife. This brother was terrifying. He disliked her from a young age and always bullied her in private. Later, he started to control her, forbidding her from doing this and that. One year, he even suddenly told her that he would marry her in the future.
Zi Tingnan was so frightened by his words that she burst into tears. She didn't want to marry him, and besides, they were siblings, how could they be together?
Ye Xiujie didn't care about any of that. If she didn't want to, he would threaten her. Anyway, she couldn't escape. He would marry her when she grew up.
But it would be many years before she grew up. He was twelve years older than her, and his Cold Night Mercenary Group had already been established, so he had less and less time to go home.
