Chapter 103 - There's something you need to know

"I admire you so much." She said to Lin Lihua.

"Don't exaggerate it, Little Wan. You're too beautiful yourself, and you look just like our mo...cough... like a teenager. If I had a face and body like yours, I'd be at least a hundred times more popular than I am right now."

Wan Jia felt embarassed. "Sis Lihua, you flatter me too much."

The girls chated a lot more before Lin Lihua shyly asked. "Little Wan, erm...can we be considered friends now?"

"We get along very well, of course we can be considered friends." Then her eyes narrowed a little. "Speaking of which, how did you know so much about me before we even met?"

Lin Lihua's heart skipped a beat. "I had someone do a quick background check on the day we met."

"But some things are too detailed, don't you think?" Things like her surname were well hidden. She had always been known as Wan Jia since three years ago.

"Let's say I have lots of connections." Lin Lihua said, feeling like she was sitting on needles.

Of course she knew everything about her. She had spent a lot of time and resources looking for her little sister. How could she not know such things? But it was just not the right time to tell her...

In the next moment, Lin Lihua had to profusely thank Lu Aotian and all his ancestors for he called at the right moment. No need to ask. He was rushing the wife home.

...

"Why did you rush me? Don't you want me to have friends?" She complained as soon as she reached home. She was really enjoying spending time with Lin Lihua. She gave her all the much craved juicy gossip about the entertainment industry and bought her dessert. It was also inexplicable but she felt really safe in Lin Lihua's presence. Perhaps it was because Lin Lihua was much older than her, Wan Jia felt she was being cared for like a little sister.

"Not only do you have new friends, you're even thinking about them when I'm talking to you? Did you even hear what I said?" The jealous husband was at it again.

"Why do you have to be so jealous? Didn't I already say it- you're the most important."

"Mommy!"

The little girl in a white fluffy dress and adorable pigtails rushed towards her.

"Baby, I missed you." She picked the little girl up and kissed her soft flushed cheeks.

"Baby missed Mommy too."

While the mother and daughter were being lovey dovey, Wan Jia's phone rang. It was Yun Xuan.

"Wanwan, there's something you need to know."

___

Two hours ago, in Tyler's apartment.

Yun Xuan was sitting in bed in a fetal position and hugging her knees.

Tyler was at a loss. "Darling, you can't be like this forever." Yun Xuan had been like this ever since she found out about her father's two evil deeds. He really wondered how she would react if she found out half of what her father had done to innocent people. Wouldn't she die of shock?

"You should eat something." he brought over some congee and coaxed her while feeding her.

"Your father is coming home tomorrow." he reminded. This was a message she had recieved in the morning and didn't even glance at it.

"I'll ask him."

"Huh?"

"I'm going to ask him!" she declared. "How can he be so sinister? I need an explanation." She pushed him aside and made for her phone.

Tyler forcefully took the phone from her trembling hands. "Wait, darling don't be rash. Trust me, you.do.not.need.any.explanation." he gravely emphasized the statement word by word.

"But I really do!"

"No! Wait, listen to me." he pulled her into his arms. "No matter how evil your father is, he clearly loves you a lot. He's under the impression that you do not know anything. If you suddenly let him know that you found out his evil schemes and ask for an explanation, don't you think he'd view you as someone who is against him?"

"So you expect me to sit back and watch him play with innocent lives like they mean nothing? He must be brought to justice!" she exploded into tears.

"Yes, he must. I also want him to pay for all his crimes, but you're not the right person to go against him." He was right. If the only person he cared about was the one to try and expose him, who knew what crazy things he might do in retaliation? "That, and what power do you have to fight such a person? Do you have any evidence?"

She cried even harder. "I don't care! We must expose him no matter what. Living with such a sinister maniac, isn't my mother's life in danger?" her assumption was that her mother must know at least one or two things about his evil deeds. She was his wife, of course she must know her husband best. The fact that she had not done anything about it, there were only two options.

Either she did not mind any of it and could even be he accomplice or she was living under a threat.

Her mother was obviously a very gentle person who wouldn't even hurt a fly. Did that mean she was really under a threat?!
