Chapter 366 Memories
The arms that had been tightly holding her finally loosened. In the dim light, her deep eyes concealed unreadable emotions, and her pale face resembled frozen frost.
A moment later, Jiang Zhouzhou heard his low, hoarse voice, filled with hesitation and inexplicable inferiority, ask her, "Zhouzhou, will you dislike me?"
Jiang Zhouzhou looked up at the man's face, which was so close to hers, and smiled at him, "In my heart, you are an extremely outstanding and capable person. How could I possibly look down on you?"
She reached out and gently patted his shoulder.
Jiang Zhouzhou continued, "Don't take those people's words to heart. No matter who you are, you are my good friend."
The words "good friend" made Ji Yu'an's lips twitch down. Jiang Zhouzhou noticed the subtle change in his expression and assumed that Ji Yu'an was unhappy because of what those men had said.
Ji Yu'an quickly composed himself, and in the blink of an eye, his brows and eyes became even more melancholy.
"But I feel very dirty."
“You’re right. Although I can’t choose my birth, I can’t change the fact that I’m a shameful illegitimate child.”
“My mother disliked me because I couldn’t help her win back that man’s heart by having a child, and that man disliked me even more because my birth tarnished his reputation.”
He was revealing the scars he least wanted others to know, yet his voice remained incredibly calm.
His tone was indifferent, as if the people in the topic had nothing to do with him.
When he began to retain his memories, he was in a dark, cramped room, facing the woman's hysterical face every day.
The pampered young lady of the Ji family, whose mother died early, was spoiled and indulged by the old master Ji to make up for the lack of maternal love.
While studying abroad, she fell in love with a handsome music teacher.
They probably had a sweet time together, which is why they had this "fruit of their love".
But after he found out she was pregnant, the man's other side was revealed.
He concealed his marital history, maintained ambiguous relationships with different women, and even flaunted some photos as trophies to his peers.
He seduces naive young girls while mocking their lack of self-respect behind their backs. With just a flick of his finger, they willingly take off their clothes and climb into his bed.
Even though he was such a scumbag, the rich heiress with a love-struck mind still wouldn't give up.
She naively believed that the classic prodigal son returning home story would happen to her, and that giving birth to her unborn child would win back his heart.
She concealed her situation from her father back home, lying alone in the hospital, enduring excruciating pain, giving birth to this unwelcome child, and nearly losing her life due to postpartum hemorrhage.
Perhaps when he was first born, the young lady was kind to him for a time.
She would gently pick him up.
I kissed his soft little face.
I called him "baby" over and over again.
But none of these things appeared in his memory.
Her expression was so pained and ferocious. Her beautiful features, tormented by her emotions, had turned this pampered young lady into an ugly, twisted, and insane woman.
"Why are you so useless!"
"You are clearly his son, so why won't he acknowledge it?"
"Trash, useless stuff."
"I truly regret giving birth to you."
Once the door is closed and the curtains are drawn, she transforms into a ferocious demon, venting her pent-up resentment on him.
It was during an illness that he first met his so-called father.
The man who could make the young lady fall so deeply in love with him must be impeccably handsome.
With a face as perfect as an ancient Greek sculpture, and a pair of deep blue eyes like sapphires formed from seawater, she exudes a captivating melancholy when she looks into someone's eyes.
Despite being the one who started it all, she pretended to care about him when she saw him sick.
His behavior probably gave the young lady hope again, so he became a regular at the hospital.
I broke my leg by accident.
He mischievously went to the kitchen to play with a knife and cut his arm.
He was restless at night and kicked off the covers, catching a cold.
The boy, who was originally a little chubby, became skin and bones at a visible speed, and his dark, bright eyes became dull and lifeless.
The young lady is very clever; she knows that the punishment for child abuse is very severe in other countries, so every time she gets hurt, she spends a sum of money to bribe officials.
Eventually, one of the caregivers couldn't stand it anymore and secretly called the police to accuse her of her behavior.
When he returned to China with the young lady, he was filled with confusion about this unfamiliar country.
When I first met my grandfather, this stern-looking middle-aged man had gray hair and looked very old, even though he was not yet fifty.
Seeing his pampered daughter wasted like this, a look of heartache and regret flashed across his eyes.
She looked down at her grandson who had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, her emotions becoming even more complex.
After returning to China, the young lady behaved herself for a while.
He became the most awkward person in the family. His maternal grandfather initially disliked him because the man had hurt his daughter, and he subconsciously took his anger out on this grandson who was related to him by blood.
So they left him in a small villa and casually arranged for a nanny to take care of him.
When he discovered that the nanny was also a woman who would exploit anyone, the young boy suddenly realized that his only hope for changing his current situation was his powerful and influential grandfather.
He deliberately refused to eat, making his body, which had just begun to recover, even more pale and emaciated.
He angered the nanny, causing her to completely expose her ugly side.
Frequent collisions resulted in unexplained and shocking bruises appearing on my body.
Occasionally, I would call the Ji family's old house and ask expectantly, "When are Grandpa and Mom coming to see me? I miss them so much."
As the young lady repeatedly harmed his body to achieve her goals, he also learned to use the same method to achieve his own.
So, he got sick.
Both he and his mother were ill.
