His fists clenched tightly as memories surged through his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting across from him, Bai Hanyun saw the same pain, regret, and longing in his eyes. Those were the same emotions she had seen when she peeked into Pei Jianyuan’s past with the Yin Mirror’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long moment of silence, Pei Jianyuan slowly relaxed his clenched fists before replying, \"Ruyan is my wife.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Hanyun was not surprised when she heard his answer. She had already seen his past and guessed the truth. Asking him now was only to confirm that her guess was correct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that she was not surprised, Pei Jianyuan said, \"Miss Bai, you already know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was not a question, but a statement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Hanyun nodded before saying, \"I do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving her confirmation, Pei Jianyuan’s eyes lit up with hope. He took a deep breath before carefully asking, \"Then... Do you know who I am?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Hanyun nodded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Jianyuan’s heartbeat sped up at her response. However, before he could tell her that he was her father, Bai Hanyun’s next words caused everything to become stuck in his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know that you are my mother’s husband.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her words, Pei Jianyuan’s eyes dimmed as if they had lost the last light in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his head and muttered in despair, \"Your mother’s husband...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at his despairing expression, Bai Hanyun asked, \"Are you not my mother’s husband?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Jianyuan raised his head to look at Bai Hanyun. Looking at his daughter’s calm face, his eyes gradually turned red before tears started falling uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled by his tears, Bai Hanyun quickly pulled several tissues from the tissue box on the low table before handing them to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that he only stared at her while tears flowed from his eyes like pear blossoms in the rain, Bai Hanyun had no choice but to stand up and walk toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting beside Pei Jianyuan, Bai Hanyun carefully folded the tissue before gently wiping away his tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly crying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Hanyun had seen Pei Jianyuan’s younger self crying like an abandoned child in his memories before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, seeing him cry while staring at her, she could not help but think,’This man is really handsome. Even when crying, he still looks like a fox spirit. No wonder my mother willingly married him.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long moment of silence, Pei Jianyuan finally said between sobs, \"Hanyun, I’m your father. Your biological father.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his words fell, Bai Hanyun froze in shock. The tissue in her hand slipped to the ground as she stared at him with widened eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two of them stared at each other, Bai Hanyun finally noticed the similarities between their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had seen her mother’s picture when she was young. Her maternal grandfather had shown it to her years ago after finding her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that Bai Hanyun looked at Pei Jianyuan closely, she was certain that her face was a combination of Bai Ruyan’s and Pei Jianyuan’s best features.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swallowing hard, she looked at Pei Jianyuan and carefully asked, \"Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Pei Jianyuan suddenly became anxious. He reached out to grab Bai Hanyun’s hand, but paused midway before retracting his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing how careful and afraid he was, Bai Hanyun felt a pang of pain in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reaching out to hold Pei Jianyuan’s hands, she asked, \"Since you said I’m your daughter, then why did you abandon my mother and me? Why did you let her die outside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being questioned by her, Pei Jianyuan’s tears fell even harder. He grabbed her hands and cried painfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s my fault. If I hadn’t left her for a business trip, those bastards wouldn’t have had the chance to kidnap my Ruyan. It’s my fault! It’s all my fault!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Bai Hanyun was stunned. Looking at Pei Jianyuan breaking down in front of her, she thought,’So my mother was harmed by other people? No wonder that she was alone when she gave birth to me.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Were they your enemies?\" Bai Hanyun asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pei Jianyuan nodded. \"It was my father and his illegitimate sons. He didn’t agree with my marriage to Ruyan and wanted us to divorce, but I never obeyed him. Because of his disapproval, Ruyan’s life in the Pei Family was not easy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To protect her, I decided to leave the family and build my own business. But my father disagreed. While I was fighting against him, his illegitimate sons took the opportunity to assassinate me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After countless failed assassination attempts, they finally changed their target to Ruyan. Unfortunately, I was careless. I thought that as long as I could lure them out and deal with them all at once, I would be able to protect her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the end, my poor judgment and overconfidence caused her death. It’s my fault that my Ruyan died during childbirth. It’s all my fault! I should have died with her!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Hanyun was startled when she heard that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staring wide-eyed at Pei Jianyuan, who was slapping himself repeatedly, she thought in shock,’Heavens! Is he suffering from depression and self-harming tendencies?!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coming back to her senses, Bai Hanyun hurriedly grabbed Pei Jianyuan’s hands to stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! It’s not your fault!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Held back by her, Pei Jianyuan lowered his head and cried in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The commotion downstairs finally caught Feng Xiyan’s and the others’ attention. When they walked downstairs, this was the scene they saw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frowning slightly, Feng Xiyan strode toward Bai Hanyun with a dark expression. \"Yun’er, what is happening here? Who is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Feng Xiyan approaching, Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up. \"Xiyan! Quick, come and help me stop him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Feng Xiyan did not ask any further questions and quickly grabbed Pei Jianyuan’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she saw that Pei Jianyuan could no longer harm himself, Bai Hanyun finally let out a long sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huff...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his hands still restraining Pei Jianyuan, Feng Xiyan asked, \"Yun’er, what is happening here? Who is this man?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1036,"2026-06-05T16:25:46.191Z",1,"novelbin.me","a29ff738032e530da536f589221c3c08fa8a35b54abc44a700cc54c903985376","my-antique-mirror-is-a-portal-to-another-world-chapter-789","my-antique-mirror-is-a-portal-to-another-world-chapter-787",793,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-antique-mirror-is-a-portal-to-another-world-cover.jpg"]
