"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?"
