Shen Zihao paused.

He floored the brake and pulled the car to a stop. Turning to Xia Nuannuan, he asked, “What do you mean by that?”

She hung her head and replied softly, “I- I’m just saying. After all, I’m not sure about what happened with your family.”

She looked so timid that Shen Zihao found himself unable to get angry at her.

Besides, she had said “your family?”

His eyes flashed. He cleared his throat and looked straight ahead saying, “Actually, at the time, when Mom and Dad got divorced all of a sudden, Mom took Shen Liangchuan and left the Shen family, I did suspect it.”

Xia Nuannuan lifted her gaze and turned to him, listening to his account of the past.

He continued, “At the time, I came home from overseas. Dad said Mom and Tianyu’s father had had an affair, and that’s why she had left the Shen Family. On top of that, she left the family without a cent in her pocket.”

“Later on, I went to look for Mom. However, Mom said she had left because she had caught Dad and Aunty Mei having an affair.”

Both sides had their own story.

Still looking at Shen Zihao, Xia Nuannuan asked him, “So what was it that made you believe Dad’s story rather than Mom’s?

Shen Zihao took in a deep breath and replied, “It was Mom’s evasiveness when I spoke with her. Besides, if you suspect your husband to be having an affair, why would you leave without taking anything with you? Even if it were a divorce, you could go through the normal process. She made such a clean cut that it was obvious she was leaving the Shen family for good. Besides, I asked many people and investigated deeply. Dad and Aunty Mei really had nothing between them. Their relationship was purely supervisor and subordinate. But Mom and Tianyu’s father… they had indeed met in secret frequently.”

Met in secret frequently—he placed emphasis on those words.

He pursed his lips tightly and said, “Tianyu’s father liked my Mom when he was young and everyone knew that. They were childhood sweethearts, but Mom married Dad later. Dad often told me when I was little that he was afraid that Mom would abandon us.”

He paused for a while and then continued, “Tianyu’s mother died not long after giving birth to him. And it was all because she felt depressed about what was happening between Tianyu’s father and Mom.”

When Xia Nuannuan heard all of this, she understood at once.

The death of Tianyu’s mother caused Shen Zihao to suspect that there was really something going on between Xia Yehua and Tianyu’s father.

On top of that, with Shen Xiu’s influence, it was no wonder that Shen Zihao had felt that Xia Yehua was one who had abandoned her family and son.

But…

“But now, Dad and Aunty Mei are together, but Mom and Tianyu’s Dad had never been together. Furthermore, I’ve been accompanying Mom for quite long and I’ve never once seen Tianyu’s Dad visit her. It proves that there is really nothing going on between those two. I’ve stayed there for more than a month.”

Shen Zihao was a little taken aback by her words.

Although he didn’t like that Xia Nuannuan was speaking up for his mother, he knew that what she was saying was reasonable.

No matter what, Dad and Mei Feng were together.

But Mom had never been together with Tianyu’s father.

Shen Zihao frowned.

The fiery anger that he had felt when hearing the news that Mei Feng was kneeling at the doorstep of the Shen villa had by now simmered down and disappeared.

With a serious expression on his face, he now arrived at the Shen villa together with Xia Nuannuan.

The moment he arrived, he saw Mei Feng’s tottering silhouette at the front door, still in a kneeling position.

It was winter and the winds were icy.

Wealthy women like Mei Feng normally dressed flimsily. Most of them would just have a woolen shawl draped across their shoulders, as they rarely stayed outdoors for too long.
