Shen Yuting was a smart woman. Seeing the ashen look on Wen Ran’s face, she didn’t need an answer to know the truth.

Before coming, she was somewhat angry at Wen Ran for hurting Mo Xiuchen, angry at her cruelty, angry at her for receiving Mo Xiuchen’s love but not cherishing it.

But, at this moment, not only had the last trace of her anger disappeared into thin air, she also felt a pang of sympathy for Wen Ran.

“I understand now.”

After a long silence, she said softly.

“Sister Ting, don’t tell Xiuchen.”

The pain in Wen Ran’s eyes slowly faded like retreating waves, leaving behind crystal-clear eyes filled with deep concern.

Shen Yuting’s nose tingled as she nodded, “Alright, I won’t tell him. But Ranran, how did you find out? Was it Fu Jingyi who told you again?”

A trace of hesitation flashed in Wen Ran’s eyes. These days, it had been so hard keeping this secret all to herself. Especially after remembering everything that night, she started having nightmares again. Now, she finally had someone to confide in, “That day, Fu Jingyi told me over the phone, saying that I would only harm the one I loved. Originally, I didn’t quite believe him.”

Shen Yuting’s eyes narrowed but she remained silent, listening quietly.

“That night, I dreamed about my childhood. More precisely, about the past I didn’t remember. I remembered it all now, including the time when I met Xiuchen and let him go. After I went back, Fu Jingyi tortured me in so many ways.”

As she spoke, a minor tremor ran through her body. It was as if the sunlight that had been warming her suddenly lost its heat. The only thing she could feel was the cold.

“Ranran!”

Shen Yuting’s heart tightened as she reached out and clutched Wen Ran’s hand.

Her hands were cold. She comforted her softly: “If you don’t want to talk about it, then don’t.”

Wen Ran looked at her with bright eyes, “I haven’t told anyone, not even Xiaoxiao. If you hadn’t asked me today, maybe I would have never told anyone.”

“In fact, Fu Jingyi had always been giving me medicine, injecting me with things. Before I let Xiuchen go, he just lied to me, saying that I was ill and needed shots and pills. From time to time, he would also be nice to me. But ever since then, the look he gave me was filled with malice. He told me frankly about the effects of the pills and shots he gave me.”

“He said, he hated my parents, hated them for betraying him. He wanted to take his revenge on me for their betrayal. He also said that when I grew up a bit, he would find many men for me. After all, I would never be able to get pregnant in my lifetime, so it wouldn’t matter even if I was violated by many men,”

“Ranran, stop talking,”

Shen Yuting couldn’t listen anymore. She knew that Wen Ran had suffered a lot under Fu Jingyi, but she could never have imagined his cruelty.

Wen Ran shivered slightly, her voice trembling: “That’s not the worst part. Even if I can never be a mother in my lifetime, even if he uses me as a test subject, even if he placed the ‘virus’ in me that wouldn’t take effect until later in life, that’s all fine…what I hate him the most for is what he said – I couldn’t fall in love with any man!”

“Anyone who is with me, will be doomed.”

Wen Ran’s tears uncontrollably slid down her cheeks, she sobbed softly and said in pain, “I love Xiuchen, I love him as much as he loves me. I wish I could be with him forever. Even if I can’t be with him forever, even if I only have a few years, I would be okay with that. But, I can’t stay by his side, I can’t let him get hurt.”

“I feel cruel too, but I want him to live a good life. I hope that in the next few decades, he can meet another woman who will stir his heart…”

“Ranran, I understand now. I’m sorry, I’ve misunderstood you, we all have.”

Shen Yuting wiped away her own tears, and then took out some tissues from her bag for Wen Ran to wipe her tears.

Wen Ran took the tissue, wiped her tears, and tried to calm her emotions. Speaking those words had relieved her burdened heart, making it feel a little lighter.

“Sister Ting, can you keep what I just told you a secret? I don’t want my brother and them to find out.”

Whether it was Wen Jin, Gu Kai, or her father Gu Yan, she didn’t want any of them to know. She didn’t want them to feel sad because of her.

“Alright, I’ll keep your secret.”

Tears glistened in Shen Yuting’s eyes as she cracked a soft smile. At this moment, she truly, from the bottom of her heart, accepted Wen Ran as her cousin.

“Thank you, Sister Ting.”

Wen Ran also smiled. Even though her tears hadn’t dried up yet, her smile made her look even more beautiful, like a blossom in the mist following the rain. She asked gently, “Sister Ting, could you tell me about your boyfriend? Does he treat you well?”

Shen Yuting didn’t want to continue the previous topic and make her feel sorrowful, so she laughed and said, “He’s very ordinary, but he’s good to me. I will show you some of his photos next time.”

“Okay!”

Wen Ran’s eyes crinkled up in laughter, appearing as though the person who was upset to the brink of suffocation just a while ago wasn’t her.

The two chatted for a while until Shen Yuting’s phone rang. She pulled out her phone, excused herself saying “It’s my boyfriend,” and pressed the answer key. The word “Hello” slipped out of her lips tenderly.

Wen Ran looked at the warmth in Shen Yuting’s eyes, feeling a slight easing of her sadness. Regardless of whatever happened between her and Xiuchen, at least, the people around her were still happy.

She didn’t know what Shen Yuting’s boyfriend said to her, but she heard Shen Yuting reply gently, “Alright, see you in a bit.”

After hanging up the call, Wen Ran teasingly asked, “Sister Ting, did your boyfriend just ask you out?”

Shen Yuting smiled and admitted frankly, “Yes, he just got his paycheck today and wants to treat me to dinner. Ranran, I won’t be able to accompany you now. When I have time again, I’ll come see you.”

“Alright!”

Wen Ran nodded.

The two got up, and before leaving, Shen Yuting hugged her once again. She whispered, “Ranran, even if everything Fu Jingyi said is true, you shouldn’t give up on yourself, don’t give up on Xiuchen. I hope you’re happy.”

“Mm.”

Wen Ran responded softly. Shen Yuting let go of her, gave her an encouraging smile, and said, “Really, I’m leaving now. Next time I see you, don’t be any skinnier than you are now.”

“I won’t be, I’ll try to put on some weight.” Wen Ran assured her confidently. Her face showed no trace of sorrow now.

After sending Shen Yuting away, she went back up, looked into the mirror and observed herself. The woman in the mirror did look rather thin, especially her pointed chin. She’d put on a little weight in the past few months, but in these past few days, she’d lost it all.

Taking a deep breath, she gently told herself, “Wen Ran, you need to be happy. You can’t let those who love you worry about you, and you can’t let the person you love be alone for the rest of their life. You need to regain your health so that you have a lifetime to accompany him.”
