Chapter 340: You Are Mine Now
Mu Yiliang felt a pain in her heart and couldn’t help but squeeze his hand: "... Your mother knew you would be brought back to the Yan Family, so she..."
Yan Sijue’s face was cold and icy.
In fact, he had realized long ago that his weak mother in that cannibalistic place didn’t want to live even a single day more, but for his sake, she endured year after year. When she realized he could return to the Yan Family, she decided to quietly end her life, unwilling to face her past or fall into Old Sir Yan’s hands again.
So, how could he not hate!
Mu Yiliang took a deep breath and then said, "Your mother initially told you this secret, hoping you would immediately convey it to the Old Man after meeting him, so you would have protection in the Yan Family. But you kept it to yourself for so many years..."
Without Yan Sijue saying more, she immediately understood his intention in doing so.
He used this method to take revenge on the Old Man for his mother’s suffering and his own cruelty.
She could imagine how devastated Old Sir Yan must be upon learning the truth!
After all these years of scheming and guarding against his grandson, he turns out to be his own son!
"From the first day I returned to the Yan Family, I planned to keep this secret temporarily." Yan Sijue said calmly.
Because he clearly saw the disgust and hatred in that old man’s eyes. Knowing what he did to his mother, how could he treat the Old Man as his father?
"But is it really worth it?" Mu Yiliang remembered the time he was in danger, and her tone became urgent, "If the Old Man was willing to protect you, the obstacles you faced would definitely be much fewer!"
"His protection?" Yan Sijue sneered, "If I told him then, wouldn’t that be too easy on him?"
"Si Jue, I know you hate him, but if you seek revenge on someone at the risk of your own safety, it’s not worth it at all!" Mu Yiliang’s expression became serious, "Your mother told you this secret so you could have a good life. She certainly hated the Old Man, but to her, you were the most important! For you, everything else could be let go! If anything happened to you all these years, what would she do?"
Yan Sijue was stunned.
He looked into her eyes, and suddenly his throat tightened.
"Yiliang..." He hugged her tightly, "You’re right. I’m sorry for worrying you."
Mu Yiliang snorted, "I wasn’t worried about you! I just feel for your mother; if anything happened to you, wouldn’t her years of endurance and sacrifice be in vain?"
Yan Sijue felt more pain in his heart, and his voice was very hoarse, "You’re right. In fact, I no longer intend to tell him, although it was a revenge plan I had been brewing for a long time. But just yesterday, I suddenly felt it didn’t matter anymore."
No matter if the Old Man regretted, didn’t care, or hated him more, it didn’t matter to him anymore. Just an unrelated person after all.
Mu Yiliang coughed lightly, feeling both proud and shy: "Is it because of me? Because I’m already by your side, so nothing else matters?"
The man chuckled lowly, holding her tighter, his voice hoarse yet gentle: "That’s right, because of you."
Mu Yiliang secretly smiled: "Then promise me, you’ll never do such foolish things again, you’re mine now!"
