Finally, she mustered up her courage and looked at Gu Yun with tears in her eyes.”l’m sorry. Actually, I hid something from you.”

Gu Yun’s movements paused slightly, but he still wiped her tears first before withdrawing his hand and listening quietly.

In fact, his heart was beating like a drum. He was afraid to hear Hai Tang say that she still loved Yu Heng and wanted to return to his side.

He did not know what to do. The only thing he could do was accept Hai Tang’s verdict.

However, he heard Hai Tang stutter,””When I was in junior high school, I was often bullied by the boys in my class. I was weak and timid at that time, and I was even afraid of going to school every day. But then there was a transfer student named Yu Heng. He took care of those boys who bullied me…’

Gu Yun listened silently, his eyes focused on her face.

Hai Tang choked as she said,” Because he was around, other boys didn’t dare to bully me. He would occasionally play with me. Then I fell in love with him and went to the same high school and university as him.”

” I like him, but he doesn’t like me. However, if he can let me stay by his side, I’ll do what I can for him, even if he intentionally or unintentionally hangs on to me…Later, at the banquet where I met you, I accidentally saw him hugging another woman. He even told her that he was just playing with me because I was only the adopted daughter of the Hai family…’

Gu Yun’s eyes darkened. He reached out a hand to cover Hai Tang’s clenched fists and patted her gently to comfort her.

“I didn’t expect him to look at me like this for so long. I was actually his plaything, his pastime when he was bored, his most loyal dog. He never treated me as a woman who needed to be treated well. “Hai Tang’s tears gushed out again, but she felt as if her pent-up emotions were about to dissipate.

She could finally tell Gu Yun about this. Although it was embarrassing to open her own wound in front of Gu Yun, she was magnanimous.

“What is it? He actually treated you like this…” Gu Yun did not expect this at all.

He had always thought that Yu Heng just didn’t like Hai Tang and ordered her around, and that Hai Tang was willing. He didn’t expect that Hai Tang would not get any good from Yu Heng.

If he had known about this earlier, he would have taken Hai Tang away from Yu Heng earlier.

His heart ached as he listened, and he looked at Hai Tang with a pained expression.

Hai Tang rubbed her eyes and continued,””That’s why I got drunk that night.

That’s why I met you and did something wrong to you.”

If she had not pushed Gu Yun down by force and taken his first time, Gu Yun would not have asked her to take responsibility and marry her.

Hai Tang felt that she was the cause of Gu Yun’s current situation. Gu Yun did not gain any benefits from her, so she was particularly ashamed.

“You didn’t let me down. On the contrary, I feel that I hate luck.”Gu Yun shook his head. He wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Hai Tang’s question.

“So, that’s my previous experience. Just now, Auntie mentioned that the boy I had a crush on in high school was Yu Heng. Gu Yun, do you think I’m stupid, unbearable, and useless?”Hai Tang looked at him.

Hai Tang felt that anyone would look down on her when they heard of her unbearable past, let alone Gu Yun, who was so outstanding and always treated her so well.

Hai Tang always felt inferior when facing Gu Yun.

This was also the reason why she thought that she could not be with Gu Yun for a long time. Who could accept her like this?

However, Gu Yun grabbed her hand. His expression was one of heartache and shock, not the disdain and disdain Hai Tang had expected.

“You can’t say that about yourself. You didn’t do anything wrong. Only those who betray their feelings and play with others ‘feelings need to be condemned. “Gu Yun said.

“You don’t despise my past. Don’t you think I’m very stupid?”Hai Tang’s eyes widened. She was at a loss for a moment.

“Everyone has a past. I respect you, and I also respect your past choices and experiences.”Gu Yun looked at her sincerely.

Hai Tang opened her mouth.” But I hid it from you. Don’t you blame me?”

Gu Yun laughed.” Actually, I already knew some things about you before I married you. I just didn’t know that Yu Heng was so bad to you. I guess I’ve been hiding it from you…”‘
