Because the three years of relationship fell short, because she didn't get anything in return, and because of him, she could only face her own daughter as an aunt forever.

Yes, Xia Yueqing is her daughter, to be precise, her and Cheng Xiaodong's daughter.

She didn't know about it until three months after the breakup.

At that time, there were very few abortions, let alone those who were unmarried and conceived first.

But Zhen Shuangyan was still young, when she was in her prime, because she was heartbroken and because she didn't have the courage to be a single mother, she was determined to get rid of the child.

But this decision ultimately failed because of Zhen Shuangyan's sister's intervention.

In the end, the child was born and handed over to her sister who had been married for three or four years but had never been pregnant.

Unexpectedly, in a twist of fate, when Xia Yueqing was two years old, her adoptive parents, Zhen Shuangyan's sister and brother-in-law both died in a car accident, so Zhen Shuangyan became Xia Yueqing's home.

But to the outside world, and to Xia Yueqing, until now, Zhen Shuangyan had only told her that she was her aunt.

Thinking of these old things, Zhen Shuangyan felt pain in her heart, and her gaze towards Cheng Xiaodong became even colder.

Cheng Xiaodong walked in, holding a bouquet of carnations, once Zhen Shuangyan's favorite flower.

I didn't think too much about it when I bought the flowers, I just remembered that she liked them.

He put the bouquet next to him, his eyes were very calm. After years of experience, Cheng Xiaodong had long since shed the innocence of the past, and his demeanor was not comparable to that of Zhen Shuangyan.

"Don't get excited, I'm just passing by to take a look at you." Cheng Xiaodong sighed softly, with an apologetic expression.

"I said before that you are not welcome here. Do you think that I am not alive enough, and you have to stimulate me to death before giving up?" Zhen Shuangyan raised her voice, her expression becoming more and more indifferent.

This sentence seemed extremely harsh.

Cheng Xiaodong knew that she hated what happened back then, and he didn't want to refute it. "I failed you. You have been hiding very well these years. I thought I would have no chance to see you again. Now I have no other intentions. If I can make it up, I will try my best to make it up to you."

Knowing that he was widowed, Zhen Shuangyan sneered even harder. "Then there's no need, I don't need it, and even if my husband is in jail now, I'm still a married woman. You come here uninvited, shameless, I'm afraid of being misunderstood, and I messed up behind my husband's back." Come on, just as I am begging you, hold your hand high and spare me once."

It seemed to be very humble, and I begged him, but the tone was completely different from the reality.

Cheng Xiaodong frowned tightly, but he couldn't get angry even if he was angry.

"If you insist on talking like this, then I have nothing to do with you. I asked the doctor, and I heard that you are going to have an operation next week?" He changed the subject without authorization, but Zhen Shuangyan on the hospital bed lost all patience and threw off the quilt Get out of bed.

He thought Zhen Shuangyan needed something, and subconsciously asked, "What are you going to do? I can help you."

Cheng Xiaodong really couldn't help with this.

She picked up the bunch of carnations he had put down, and threw them on the ground together with the fruits he brought.

"Swallow, you..." Rao Cheng Xiaodong was somewhat annoyed by this move.

"What? Can't bear it? Back then, I was kicked out by your mother in front of you." Zhen Shuangyan's eyes were red, and she was trembling with anger.

When these old things are not mentioned, they are just wounds in a corner.

But if he insisted on prodding, she had no choice but to let him feel it too.

Because of the love, today's hate is especially unforgettable.

"Cheng Xiaodong, I don't need your hypocritical compensation. What you owe me, you can't make it up to me even if you give everything you have."

Between the two daughters, why would she rather make the younger daughter jealous and unhappy, and still treat Xia Yueqing well?

That's because she owed Xia Yueqing a lot since she was a child.

She couldn't give her an aboveboard identity, making her think that her real parents had passed away, and she was dependent on others, showing unusual precocity at a young age.

She would rather she be a little more noisy, lively, and behave more like her peers, so that maybe she will feel less guilty.

But it doesn't exist, these are destined to not exist.

"I, I'm sorry." Cheng Xiaodong, such a high-ranking and powerful person, was counted down in front of Zhen Shuangyan, but he couldn't hold his head up.

"No need, you are really sorry, just don't appear in front of me again, I will be grateful." Zhen Shuangyan replied loudly.

"Knock knock knock", just when their quarrel was at its most intense, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

Zhen Shuangyan looked over and subconsciously asked who it was.

In the next second, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Xia Yueqing, who came with Pei Yiting, walked in front. "Auntie, it's me."

Xia Yueqing was speaking, but her eyes were surprised to find Cheng Xiaodong's figure, and she was stunned for a moment.

Zhen Shuangyan was also stunned, "Didn't you say you won't be here today?"

Witnessing Cheng Xiaodong and Xia Yueqing in the same frame, and even followed by Pei Yiting, this is an absolute nightmare for Zhen Shuangyan.

"There was still something to do, but it was settled later." Xia Yueqing replied subconsciously, and found the bouquet of flowers and fruits that had been thrown off the ground, and it was obvious at a glance that there was no peace inside.

She silently guessed, did she come at the wrong time?

Pei Yiting let go of Xia Yueqing's hand, put the bouquet he brought on the bedside, and said hello to Zhen Shuangyan.

"Yi, Yi Ting, are you here too?" Zhen Shuangyan twitched the corners of her lips, smiling forcedly.

Pei Yiting replied yes, then looked up at Cheng Xiaodong.

"So Uncle, you know Auntie?" Pei Yiting just asked casually, without any hint of inquiring.

Zhen Shuangyan felt guilty, and didn't give Cheng Xiaodong a chance to speak, and interrupted him directly: "I don't know you well."

Xia Yueqing is embarrassing, Aunt, don't you have three hundred taels of silver here?

"Well, I'll get to know you soon, aunt, this is Yi Ting's uncle." Even though she sensed that the atmosphere was not right, Xia Yueqing could only bite the bullet and introduce.

Although she knew it well, Zhen Shuangyan already knew that Cheng Xiaodong was Pei Yiting's uncle.

"It's all a family, fate." Pei Yiting curled his lips at his uncle, only to see Cheng Xiaodong's handsome face.

Family is not a good word for Zhen Shuangyan. She glanced at Cheng Xiaodong indifferently. The latter seemed to understand and said goodbye directly.

"I still have to leave a little bit earlier, you continue to chat."

He didn't even give Pei Yiting or Xia Yueqing a chance to see him off, so he left in a hurry.

Only then did Zhen Shuangyan put away the thorns on her body, but when she saw Pei Yiting, she felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
