Chapter 1053 - 1053 1053 The Truth (1)

1053: Chapter 1053: The Truth (1) 1053: Chapter 1053: The Truth (1) Dong Wenming arrived quickly, and not only did he come, but his wife from the Ya Family also came along, although they did not bring Dong Ruoqiu with them.

Madam Ya examined the appearance of the small building and the servants inside, her eyes twinkling; she had gained a deeper understanding of this niece she had not yet met.

“Xinxin…” Dong Wenming rushed in eagerly, looking at Yang Ruxin with anticipation, “Where is your mother?” He was desperate to reunite with his sister.

When their mother passed away, she was filled with regret and even on her deathbed, she was yearning for her sister.

They were supposed to visit their mother’s grave during the New Year, but they hadn’t gone back this year—it was all for this sister.

“She has learned the truth, and truth often proves too much for one to bear; hence, she needs time to think things through.” Yang Ruxin smiled, “Lord Dong, Madam, please have a seat.”

During Dong Wenming’s last visit, he hadn’t been able to enter the inner part of the small building, having been served in the sitting room of a side building.

This time, upon entering the building, he noticed that the furnishings were all quite distinctive; even the chair he was sitting on was something he had never seen before.

He promptly took a seat: “Xinxin, why are you still calling me Lord Dong?”

“It’s just a form of address,” Yang Ruxin said with a smile, “Besides, shouldn’t it depend on what my mother thinks?” Referring to him that way indicated that the previous speculations had become reality, but today, it truly depended on the attitude of Xun Hui.

“Xinxin.” Dong Wenming smiled wryly in resignation, “No one could have anticipated such circumstances…

I wonder what you think of it all…”

“Me?” Yang Ruxin raised her eyebrows slightly, “My father has been dead for so many years; I don’t have much to say on the matter…”

Madam Ya opened her mouth to speak, but upon catching Dong Wenming’s glance, she immediately closed it.

All Dong Wenming could do was sigh: “I understand.”

“However, I still must advise Lord Dong, some creatures just can’t be tamed.” Yang Ruxin smiled, “Considering your many years in business, you must understand people better than I do, Lord Dong.

Of course, this is just my personal opinion; take it as you will.”

Dong Wenming glanced at Yang Ruxin and then nodded; he clearly understood her implication.

Madam Ya couldn’t help but look at Dong Wenming; she understood Yang Ruxin’s meaning as well, but she was somewhat worried.

After all, he was her daughter’s husband—someone her daughter cherished.

What if…

But Dong Wenming shook his head at her imperceptibly, signaling her to keep quiet.

It wasn’t long before the Bai Family arrived.

Yang Ruxin stood up, about to have someone call Yang Baiyue, when Xun Hui burst out unexpectedly, grabbing the old Bai man: “Grandfather, am I truly not my mother’s child?”

The old Bai man looked at Xun Hui and then let out a sigh: “Back in the day, I was acquainted with the old Xun man, so we fixed the marriage.

But who knew that Xun Qiancheng would turn out to be such a bastard…” He paused for a moment, “Xun Qiancheng was philandering with brothel women, and the girl cried every day, washing her face with tears.

Eventually, she got pregnant but the daughter she bore died soon after birth.

To keep hold of that bastard, she bought a baby…”

Xun Hui closed her eyes; so she truly wasn’t from the Xun Family.

“The girl truly cared for you with all her heart, but she herself had a hard life, so she left this world early…” The old Bai man sighed, “I wanted to take you back to the Bai Family, but that bastard Xun Qiancheng wouldn’t allow it.

We could only…

you shouldn’t blame us, we were helpless too…”

“I understand,” Xun Hui nodded, “Thank you for being willing to come and tell me the truth.”
