Han Qing straightened her back suddenly, her two narrow eyebrows wrinkled in a sorrowful way and her eyes filled with doubts.
âYou meanâ¦â She looked at her daughter with her mouth wide open in surprise, as if she couldnât believe it.
âNot once in recent months?â
Han Xueâs mood has dropped to the lowest. Even with exquisite makeup, she still looked bad and embarrassed.
âNoâ¦â She shook her head helplessly, never once.
âHow is it possible?â Han Qing exclaimed, with a pair of eyes wide open as if her eyeballs were about to fall out. âHeâs only in his thirties, how can heâ¦â
âItâs true, momâ¦â Han Xue forced a smile helplessly, which was stiff and bitter. She sighed and said, âSince I moved in this castle, he has come back home less and less. Even if he comes back, he would sleep with his daughter rather than sleep in our room.â
When Han Xue spoke of this, her voice became low. Some tears were even vaguely perceivable in her constantly blinking eyes. Feeling somewhat wronged, she was unwilling to say anything, because it was really humiliating to speak the truth out.
The surprise on Han Qingâs face turned into a kind of anxiety. She took her daughterâs hand excitedly and said in a warning tone.
âNo⦠Little Xue, you have to find a way quickly. There is no doubt that he must have a mistress outside. â
Han Qing made such judgment based on her many yearsâ of love experience. How could men over thirty years old, strong and robust, have no need? If he did not make love with his own women back home, he must have had enough outside.
Han Xue grinned bitterly, unable to say anything as if her mouth was filled with Coptis chinensis. Naturally, she could guess that this would be the case. However, how could she deal with that? She couldnât have him under control. Even if he did have a mistress or something outside, she couldnât do anything about that.
âLittle Xueâ¦â Seeing her daughter being wronged like this, Han Qing felt uncomfortable as well. She patted her daughter on the shoulder, lowered her voice and said, âMom canât help you with this matter. You can only think of ways yourself, such as dressing up more sexually attractive, and taking more initiatives. Anyway, thereâs a way. Men, once successfully seduced, are all into sex. If thereâs really no way out, you can also turn to drugs. â
Han Xue looked at her mother, whose anxiety was caught by her and whose words were kept in her mind as well. However, she suddenly felt like laughing, laughing at herself, because she couldnât observe any sadness in her motherâs eyes.
Her mother didnât seem to care about her as she said. Or say, her mother was more concerned about whether she could maintain her position in Ye family.
She felt the most ridiculous at the moment. Nobody in the world cared about her. Her husband, her mother and her father, all of them were the same.

In the evening, Ye Hao came back from work. He was wearing a black coat and black trousers with a dark grey scarf around his neck. His entire person was emitting a deep and cold air. The same was true of his face, from which one could not see any peace or calmness when one came back.
He took off his coat and handed it to a maid aside. He glanced around the hall, and went straight towards the direction of the elevator after finding his daughter nowhere to be seen. He did not even cast a single look at his wife and mother-in-law a few meters away, just as if they did not exist.
