Tang Zhen did not sleep soundly tonight. It was unknown whether it was because of the argument she had with Song Qiting or what, but she had had many nightmares.

"No, no."

Tang Zhen suddenly woke up from her stupor and gasped for breath. The perspiration on her forehead had long drenched her hair, she hurriedly lifted her cup and drank a large mouthful of water to quell her shock.

She had a terrible nightmare. In the dream, she went back to when she was very good. At that time, she had just started babbling when she was hugged by a woman and jumped off a high building.

Tang Zhen thought back to what had happened in her dreams. It seemed like it wasn't a dream, and even though she had experienced it personally, she rubbed her temples that was swelling up.

By the time she finished packing, the sky was already bright. She picked up her bag and quickly left the room. The huge question that was lurking in her heart had to be solved.

She hailed a car and hurried home.

"Eldest Miss is back?" The servant was overjoyed upon seeing Tang Zhen and immediately reported to Tang Zhen's mother, Tang Zijun, "Madam, the First Miss is back."

Tang Zhen stood in the Tang Family's living room. She wasn't familiar with this family, because her mother had always treated her indifferently since she was young, and the only person who accompanied her in all these years was her grandmother.

Tang Zhen did not care about the servant's passionate treatment, she quickly rushed upstairs and found her family's photo album in the study.

Indeed, there were no pictures of her before she was a year old.

She took the photo album downstairs quickly, and saw that Tang Zijun was arrogantly sitting on the sofa, drinking tea. The woman was in good shape, and the years did not seem to have left any traces on her body, her entire body was releasing a strong aura, her every movement was noble and cold.

She raised her head and just happened to glance at Tang Zhen who was walking down the stairs.

"Such a big person, yet he's in such a hurry. Just by looking at him, you think I didn't teach you well?"

Tang Zijun said in an odd tone as she impatiently glanced at Tang Zhen to continue tasting the tea.

Tang Zhen had long since gotten used to Tang Zijun's attitude. She immediately slowed down her footsteps and walked in front of Tang Zijun, opening up the album in her hands.

"Mom, why aren't there any photos of me before I was a year old in this album?"

Tang Zhen asked.

When she finished speaking, Tang Zijun's hand that was holding onto the teacup suddenly paused, the cunning fox eyes suddenly sized up Tang Zhen. Seeing that other than the doubt on her face, there were no other emotions on her face, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She elegantly put down the teacup in front of her, and only then did she receive the photo album in Tang Zhen's hands and flip through it calmly. The photo album was very thick, it was filled with pictures of Tang Zhen and his grandparents, and there were even a few of them that belonged to Tang Zijun.

Tang Zhen didn't have a single memory of her own father. She had heard Tang Zijun tell her before that her father went to find Little San to abandon her, so in order to not make Tang Zijun angry, she had never once mentioned anything about her father.

"What do you want to know?"

Tang Zijun suddenly came back to question her about what happened before she was one year old. There could not be a reason, could it be that she knew about something? Tang Zijun was shocked.

"I just want to know why there are no pictures of me before I was a year old." Tang Zhen sat opposite to her.

The dream was so real that she almost thought it was real. Plus, she had never seen a picture of herself before she was one year old, so she had to be suspicious. Moreover, her grandparents doted on her so much that they couldn't possibly leave her with a picture between the time she was born and the time she was one year old.

If that was true, then who was that strange woman that was holding her as she jumped off the building?

"For this, you didn't even say hello and just came back? "How could the Song Family regard you in such a manner?"

She had always been clear about Tang Zhen's situation in the Song Family, but even if she had, she had never stood up for Tang Zhen. If it wasn't for the fact that her grandparents doted on her, she really would have thought that she wasn't Tang Zijun's biological child.

Tang Zijun angrily scolded Tang Zhen a few times before giving her an answer. She then threw the album on the table.

"In the past, your father's business was severely damaged, and he had to pay up. Even the house was mortgaged. The photos of you before you were one year old were all in that house, and they were all thrown away."

Tang Zijun replied coldly, but his stiff voice had a trace of guilt in the depths of his eyes, and quickly disappeared. He looked at Tang Zhen with disgust, and didn't have the slightest bit of a mother treating her daughter like a daughter.

"Why haven't I heard you talk about it before?" Tang Zhen chased relentlessly.

"What is it? I have to report what that heartless man has done three times a day to you, don't you think? "

Tang Zijun's sharp voice roared impatiently, as if Tang Zhen had stabbed her in her heart. The rage on her face was not concealed in the slightest.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I won't ask anymore. "

Although Tang Zhen had never personally experienced her mother's suffering, but she, who had similarly suffered from a man's injuries, understood this feeling. Therefore, no matter how Tang Zijun had treated her over these years, she had chosen to understand.

The debt that her father owed her would inevitably not be repaid by her.

"Alright, let's get Chen Sister-in-Law to prepare a set of clothes for you. Today is your grandma's second wife, so at least you have some conscience to know how to come back."

Tang Zijun stood up and once again went upstairs and changed into a black qipao.

During the entire day that she spent with Tang Zhen, she did not ask him about his relationship with her at all. Even her grandmother, Tang Zhen, did not come back, nor did she ask him a single thing.

Tang Zhen silently followed behind Tang Zijun, all the way until the end of the ceremony. Only then did she have time to sit in front of her grandmother's tombstone and take an extra look.

"Mom, you guys go back first. I need to talk to Grandma for a while."

Tang Zhen sat in front of his grandmother's tombstone and said softly. Actually, even if she didn't say anything, she knew that Tang Zijun wouldn't care about her. Ever since she and Song Qiting got married, Tang Zijun had almost never asked her a single question.

"Grandma, I missed you so much."

Tang Zhen leaned on his grandmother's tombstone, as if she had gone back to the days when she was being spoiled and refused to come out no matter what.

She closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, tears had already begun to fall …

"Where's Tang Zhen?"

After last night, Song Qiting felt that he had overdone it, so when it was morning, he wanted to have a good talk with Tang Zhen. However, he didn't expect that there was already no one in the room.

"Today is Miss Tang's grandmother's day, she should have gone to the tomb." The butler respectfully replied.

Song Qiting could not help but frown. Time passed really quickly, his grandmother had already died two weeks ago.

He had a simple breakfast and originally wanted to go to the grave to take a look, but when he thought about his and Tang Zhen's identities in the past, he stopped in his tracks in the end.

"Buzz …"

His phone suddenly rang, and when Song Qiting picked up the phone, he subconsciously thought that it was Tang Zhen calling. However, when he saw the name on the phone's screen, he felt a moment of disappointment.

"Yi Fei."

Song Qiting answered the call softly. Ever since he confirmed his feelings for Tang Zhen last night, he was a little unsure of how to face Yu Yifei. At the same time, he understood that he owed Yu Yifei the last time he had thought about him for so many years.
