My Beautiful Love

Madam Yun slumped into the closest seat, laughing. 

Yun Xuan stared at her. For some reason, this kind of laughter felt dangerous.

"I only said I would kill him... but... look how worked up you are... haha! You almost tore me into pieces like a lion.

But I'm not allowed to be sad over my son's death.... what a joke.... what a joke..." 

Yun Xuan relaxed her clenched fists. Her emotions were complicated. "Mother..." 

Xia Rou held her shoulder. "You cannot talk logic to her." 

She was not in her right mind. 

Xia Rou was familiar with this kind of pain. She knew what Madam Yun must be feeling, so she didn't begrudge her for attacking Yun Xuan. "Go to your room, get an ice pack for your face while at it. I'll speak to her." 

Yun Xuan nodded and went to her room. Her presence here would do more harm than good.

"Is this the outcome you really want?" She heard Xia Rou ask in the living room.

...

In her room, Yun Xuan let out sigh after sigh. 

All these years, her mother had treated her well. They had been so close that sometimes she would forget that they were not related by blood. 

Yet because of Yun Feiwen, their relationship shattered like a frail glass... had their love been so delicate all these years? 

She didn't have anything to say about whatever happened to him... she was half happy that he was no longer able to hurt her; but she would be lying if she said that she wasn't upset with her mother. 

She didn't even ask anything... the first thing she did when she got into the Lin residence was to deliver a slap. The worst part was that despite knowing that her son was in the wrong, she still endlessly blamed Yun Xuan. How could Yun Xuan not be upset? Not to mention, she was innocent in this matter. 

Regarding the insults that had been hurled towards her out of thin air, Yun Xuan had no comment. 

What would she expect? 

Actually, she didn't think she had a right to blame her. If she was in Madam Yun's shoes and her son did something wrong, she would punish him alright but she wouldn't stand it if anyone else hurt him. 

...

After pressing an ice pack against her face and staying in her room until it was no longer swollen, Yun Xuan decided to take a walk and calm her nerves. Her baby was asleep. If she simply strolled for a short distance, she would return before he woke up. 

Madam Yun had already left the house. Yun Xuan oddly didn't ask about her. She didn't want to know how that talk with Xia Rou ended. 

"Xuanxuan, are you going somewhere? Remember to take a bodyguard with you." Xia Rou reminded. 

"I'm just going for a stroll." Yun Xuan sounded weaker than usual, making Xia Rou's heart ache for her. 

Anyone would be sad if their mother treated them the way Madam Yun just did. She was grieving her son, but that was not an excuse to bully her foster daughter. 

Hence Xia Rou thought Yun Xuan going for a walk was a good idea. She asked Yun Xuan to wait and brought a golden credit card from her room. "If you see anything you like, you can buy it. You can also buy more clothes for yourself and  Little Feng; shopping relaxes the mind." 

"Um...  Aunty I can't accept this." Yun Xuan rejected the card modestly. It was already parasitic enough to live in the Lin residence for free. Wouldn't it be too much if she took money from Xia Rou as well?

Xia Rou took her cold hand and squeezed the card into her palm. "Just take it; you might need it." 

She saw the sparkle in Xia Rou's eyes and was unable to reject it. "Then, thank you aunty." 

Of course, she knew that rejecting it would be no use. Even if she didn't use Xia Rou's money to buy clothes, Xia Rou would simply buy them once she had the time. She wouldn't be able to reject them then. .

Because she was simply going for a walk, Yun Xuan was wearing a comfortable white dress and a pair of flat shoes. 

She didn't want to walk around with bodyguards so they kept their distance. After all she wanted to be alone for a while. 

...

After of walking aimlessly for a long time with her thoughts wandering off, Yun Xuan saw that she had reached a familiar building and looked up. 

Eh?! 

How the heck did she get here? Teleporting?

No wonder her feet hurt slightly.

She could swear that she was not intending to come to Lin Ye's villa even in her imagination. It must be a coincidence. 

Well, since she was here, she might as well say hi to Lin Ye. 

The man was, as usual, in the living room. 

Since the servants were already used to seeing her around, they simply greeted her and scurried off to mind their own business. 

As soon as they were alone, all the sadness overwhelmed her and she suddenly pounced into his arms. 

Lin Ye was taken aback. Where am I, what is my name? 

"I feel so wronged...." Yun Xuan tightened her arms around him, not in the least trying to fight the urge to let it out. 

"What happened?" Lin Ye calmly asked, surprised that she was taking the initiative to talk about something that bothered her. 

Yun Xuan explained everything that had happened in detail. 

"Alas, not everyone is as true as Aunt Xia. I mean, she wouldn't hate her children because they did something wrong. 

....not to mention I really didn't do anything. I admit I hated Yun Feiwen for bullying me all my life but I didn't kill him... he's the one who had something against me. Why does she blame me?" 

Lin Ye patted her back. "She will come around." 

"You think so? I think history is repeating itself. Haiz... I should have kept away from that family forever since I had already decided to cut ties." 

Lin Ye remained silent. 

She was so upset.... if she knew that he was the one behind it, would she hate him?
