Chapter 145: then translation of chapter title
Luo Yin's emotions were already at breaking point; seeing Tangtang and Tiantian suddenly appear, her emotions burst like a flood, pouring out uncontrollably.
Before she could speak, her voice choked; she looked at Su Xiyan with tear-filled eyes and whispered:
"Yan Yan."
Just those two words, and Su Xiyan already understood everything.
She didn't know when Luo Yin had learned of her origins, but it was clear that Luo Yin and Su Mu Ye had not come today to confront her.
Su Xiyan lowered her gaze, avoiding Luo Yin's eyes, and said softly:
"This time, before I brought Tangtang and Tiantian to Huaxia, Bai Xiaosheng and Nian Yin Ge had each come to see me in turn."
"At that time I had not yet recovered my memory, and I found their words ambiguous."
"Now, thinking back, everything makes sense."
Su Xiyan's words lacked sincerity, and Luo Yin grew so nervous she seemed to have forgotten how to breathe.
Looking at Luo Yin's pale face, Su Xiyan felt as if everything had returned to five years ago.
She asked: "How is your health?"
Luo Yin nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay."
"At first I thought Mengmeng... was my child, so I resolved to live well in order to make up for my shortcomings toward her."
"Later, I noticed something off about her, so I went to Bai Xiaosheng; after his investigation, he felt deeply sorry toward me."
"Only then did I finally realize: you... are my child."
"Later I learned you had two children and your body had suffered grave harm; I truly wanted to see you."
"But Bai Xiaosheng said you had amnesia and couldn't be stimulated for now, so I... I thought I must take good care of myself and live a long life."
"Only then, once everything stabilizes, would I have a chance to reunite with you."
Su Xiyan pressed her lips and gave a faint smile: "That's good."
Even though Su Yimeng was full of malicious schemes and did all sorts of evil, she ultimately gave Luo Yin a lifeline at the critical moment.
It was precisely thanks to that sliver of hope that Luo Yin's life could continue to the present.
Seeing Su Xiyan's emotions subdued, Luo Yin felt immense anxiety and helplessly turned her head to glance at Su Mu Ye.
Su Mu Ye felt guilty toward Su Xiyan inside, and didn't know how to face her.
Looking at the two elderly people before her, nearly fifty, Su Xiyan softly said to Tangtang and Tiantian:
"Tangtang, Tiantian, these are your maternal grandparents."
After receiving her confirming nod, Tangtang and Tiantian called out softly:
"Grandpa Grandma!"
Luo Yin's eyes instantly welled with hot tears, and she exclaimed: "Ah!"
She was extremely agitated; Su Mu Ye stepped forward two paces, embraced her in his arms, and said nervously:
"Take care of your health."
Then he approached Tangtang and Tiantian, pulled out two black cards from his pocket, and placed them in their hands.
Tangtang and Tiantian did not accept them, turning their heads to look at Su Xiyan.
Su Xiyan nodded and said, "Keep them."
Tangtang and Tiantian smiled, saying, "Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma."
Having said that, they obediently stood to the side.
Su Mu Ye looked at Su Xiyan and asked, "How is Yan Moci's injury?"
Su Xiyan: "He took a bullet for me; the wound is less than a centimeter from his heart, and he is currently undergoing emergency treatment."
Luo Yin covered her mouth in shock, "How could this happen."
Saying this, her eyes reddened involuntarily: "Moci shares the same tragic fate as his mother."
Hearing this, Dongzi and Su Xiyan couldn't help but exchange a glance.
Su Xiyan asked: "Back then, what exactly happened with Yan Moci's mother?"
At this moment, upon hearing Su Xiyan's question, Luo Yin naturally confessed everything:
"Moci's mother and I grew up together as close friends, but our relationships were never smooth."
"Moci's mother fell in love with his father, but his father was always flirtatious, and though affectionate, he was also unfeeling."
"Moci's mother always thought she could warm his heart with her sincerity, but she never expected that the eventual outcome would be Liu Huanyu moving into the household."
"No one knew how Liu Huanyu caught his father's eye, but at that time Moci's father indeed entertained the idea of making Liu Huanyu his legitimate wife."
"His mother couldn't accept it and fell into depression; at that time, a psychologist often came to the Yan Family Old Residence to provide counseling for her."
"But at that very moment, his father saw another man approaching his mother and felt annoyed."
"He also humiliated his mother; Ding Yingxue was already in poor mental shape then, and could not bear such treatment."
"During one counseling session, her emotions broke down; that psychologist had long harbored affection for her due to her plight, but never overstepped bounds."
"Under Yan Qinian's continual humiliations, Ding Yingxue was pushed further away, lost all hope, and eventually agreed to divorce him."
"But Yan Qinian refused to agree."
Saying this, Luo Yin's usually gentle face broke into a cold smile.
"Perhaps men all have this flaw: when they love someone, they never cherish them."
"But when they don't love, they won't let you leave."
"Yan Qinian thought Ding Yingxue would stay loyally by his side for life, but he never expected she would grow weary and tired, especially while she seemed to have a new lover."
Su Xiyan frowned: "So, was the scene of them being caught in adultery back then truly a setup?"
Luo Yin nodded: "Exactly."
Su Xiyan pressed her lips, her gaze cold: "The one who orchestrated it was not Liu Huanyu, but Yan Qinian."
Luo Yin was somewhat surprised that Su Xiyan could have guessed it, but she still nodded,
"That's right, Yan Qinian went mad at that time, he realized that he had actually fallen in love with Yingxue earlier."
He did a ridiculous thing; in fact, it was originally just another humiliation.
But he didn't expect that Yingxue's psychiatrist would suddenly appear that day; perhaps Yingxue had sent out a distress signal to him.
In the end, it became the situation that everyone saw.
Yan Qinian's face at that time was extremely ugly, and he said many harsh words.
Su Xiyan, "He forced Ding Yingxue to death."
Luo Yin nodded, "That's right."
As she said, Luo Yin glanced at Su Muye, and Su Muye showed a slightly ingratiating smile.
Luo Yin, "After Yingxue's death, Yan Qinian remained in a daze."
Over the next few years, he died in a traffic accident."
Su Xiyan felt strange, "Why did everyone keep this matter so secret back then?"
Luo Yin still wanted to speak, but she heard an old voice coming from the side.
"Because, this is a family matter of the Yan family in Jingcheng."
Yan Laotaiye's voice suddenly sounded, and everyone turned their heads to look at him.
After not seeing each other for five years, Yan Laotaiye has grown much older, already advanced in age.
His eyes had become cloudy, but his words were still clear,
"Xiyan, long time no see."
Su Xiyan looked at Yan Laotaiye inquisitively and nodded, saying:
"Old Master, long time no see."
As she spoke, she protected Tangtang and Tiantian behind her.
Seeing Su Xiyan's action, everyone present unconsciously protected her in front.
Seeing everyone guarding against him, Yan Laotaiye laughed,
"It seems I am not welcome."
In that laugh, there was ridicule, also sorrow.
