"Verdan!" Su Linyu had wide eyes. She stabilized herself. "I thought you could'nt make it to the party tonight?" She was actually there to represent ZFC, and of course, to see her ex-fiancé.
"Mother, is something the matter?" He eyed the elderly whose sly smile had just vanished.
"Oh...uhm..." Su Linyu needed to hide her discomfort towards Chairman Song, otherwise, her son could use it as an excuse to somehow break the engagement.
"Do I need to know something?" Dan's voice was monotonous, but his eyes were dangerous.
"Verdan...uhm, we were just talking about your wedding. We were wondering if you already had a date in mind." She somehow salvaged the situation.
"Madie had yet to decide. I will agree to whenever she wants it to happen."
Chairman Song guffawed. "Are you already surrendering to your wife even before the wedding?"
"My wife's wishes come first." Dan's eyes were sincere and there was a hint of a smile on his lips.
Su Linyu was overjoyed by how her son considers his future wife.
Little did she know that this son of hers was talking about another woman.
Dan cleared his throat. "Chairman Song, can I borrow my mother for a while?"
The elderly chuckled. "Why still so distant? You could start calling me 'Dad'."
Dan only pursed his lips.
Feeling awkward, Chairman Song added, "Ehrm...why of course, she is your mother after all."
Dan bowed respectfully and led his mother to the veranda.
"What is it?" Su Linyu was relieved to be rescued, but her son's face was serious enough for her to worry.
"Mom, Dad...he..." Dan started to tear up.
Her face shamelessly lit up. She was hoping that she could become a widow soon.
Dan furrowed his brows when he saw her expression. It was weird to suddenly light up to almost smiling before she hears the good news.
Su Linyu became aware of her expression and retrieved her worried face.
"Verdan, just tell me. What happened to your father?" Dead. Dead. She was already repeating the word in her mind.
Dan gritted his teeth. He knew that his parents did not marry out of love, but the anticipation in her eyes was disgusting. He almost forgot that he was bringing good news.
He looked down to compose himself.
Su Linyu's eyes widened to the news. Her look of disappointment was not hidden at all.

Aoi Xiu just presided a clan meeting. There were a lot of issues tackled, and she was tired.
She entered her room to take a nap. As she lied on the bed, her eyes caught the photo, framed and displayed on the bedside table, of Midori's first sakura viewing. She was barely a year old then, happily babbling in her mother's arm. Aoi remembered that it was Xiu Jin who took this photo.
Aoi Xiu propped up her head using her arm on the pillow to better look at the photo.
She was staring at it until sleep took over her, bringing back memories.
.
Because she was heavily pregnant back then, airlines would not permit her to take a domestic, much more an overseas flight.
Aoi Xiu called her parents to send a private jet. Her father was startled by her request. He was worried about the grandchild in her womb.
At that point, Lady Igarashi, Aoi's mother took charge. She sent her own private plane to fetch her daughter and bring her back to City T. Lady Igarashi was a gentle lady, but her conviction that time reminded her family that she was indeed once a part of the royal family.
Xiu Jin was ready to be killed when he presented the DNA test to the Igarashi household.
"Jin." Igarashi-san was a scary clan leader but a gentle father. When Aoi married Jin, he already considered him as his own son.
Xiu Jin was still in his dogeza, asking for forgiveness.
"Get up, Jin." The old man ordered.
Xiu Jin slowly sat up. His face was serious. His father-in-law was holding the test result.
"So it was a misuderstanding...but tell me, why was the girl having such delusions?"
Xiu Jin gulped. "She was my ex...but she married someone else. I honestly don't know where she's coming from."
Igarashi-san thought carefully, stroking his gray goatee.
"It was indeed peculiar. Tell me, Son, did you investigate on why she married someone else?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
