Chapter 1029: Chapter 1009: Dark Past, Heartfelt Confessions

Jiang Shishuang was taken aback for a moment and looked up.

This large hand was undeniably extended by Ye Huan.

Jiang Shishuang’s expression was complex: "What are you doing?"

Ye Huan smiled, "Since I can’t sleep, should we talk for a while?"

Jiang Shishuang hesitated for a moment, then took Ye Huan’s hand, stood up, and sat beside him.

Ye Huan lifted a corner of the quilt and covered her with it.

This unwittingly brought a blush to her pretty face.

Jiang Shishuang snorted coldly, "You haven’t slept the whole time, have you?"

"No, I haven’t."

"Then why didn’t you strike back at me?"

Jiang Shishuang raised an eyebrow, "I’ve been planning to harm you, and yet you act like it’s no big deal?"

"Because I know you couldn’t bring yourself to do it." Ye Huan’s words were quite profound; he could naturally feel the change in Jiang Shishuang’s attitude toward him over time.

As someone who has settled down and experienced many relationships, he also understood why Jiang Shishuang would undergo such a change.

It’s simple; Jiang Shishuang has developed feelings for him.

"You bastard, why are you so good and considerate to me?" Jiang Shishuang gritted her teeth, her eyes shimmering with tears as she punched Ye Huan’s chest, then bit her lip and asked softly, "Did you already know my identity?"

"I initially just suspected, until I recently confirmed through certain channels that there was never anyone like you in the Dragon Gate’s Outer Sect. Only then did all the clues in my mind form a closed loop, confirming your identity."

Ye Huan didn’t hide anything, speaking quite frankly.

"I was wondering why my strange reactions on the Diamond Queen and in the club didn’t raise your suspicions, but it turns out you were just pretending to be ignorant."

Jiang Shishuang’s eyelids drooped slightly, her pink fist tightly clutching her clothing: "Since you’ve already discovered my identity, why didn’t you take the opportunity to get rid of me when I lost my strength? That way, it would be like eliminating a major enemy, wouldn’t it?"

"You living is more valuable than being dead." Ye Huan’s expression turned a bit colder: "Jiang Shishuang, you’ve committed countless sins in the past, done numerous evil deeds, causing harm to many ordinary people. Now you have a chance to turn over a new leaf and redeem yourself."

Jiang Shishuang laughed mockingly, "Impossible, I won’t betray the faction."

"You should be aware of how many sins the faction has committed and how many atrocities it has committed against the Heavenly Dao in researching those drugs."

"Is staying in such an organization worth it?"

"And once it’s destroyed, countless people will be saved, and countless people can avoid being harmed by them..."

Before Ye Huan could finish, Jiang Shishuang shook her head and smiled calmly: "Don’t bother persuading me, I won’t turn back, and I can’t turn back. Believe me, even if you kill me, I won’t betray the faction."

Ye Huan wasn’t surprised by Jiang Shishuang’s response, but rather asked with slight interest: "Can you tell me the reason?"

"Because I’m still counting on the faction to resurrect my mother. As long as they can bring her back, I don’t care how many evil deeds they do or how many people they harm. I would even help them harm others." Jiang Shishuang buried her head in her knees, speaking in the calmest tone about the most chilling thing.

Resurrection?

Upon hearing this, Ye Huan’s brows furrowed like an "eight": "In this world, no one can come back to life."

"But even if there’s the slightest hope, I will pursue it."

Jiang Shishuang continued Ye Huan’s words, then showed a faint expression of longing and a slight smile: "Because the only motivation keeping me alive is to resurrect my mother."

"She taught me to speak, taught me to recognize words. Even when she was close to fainting from hunger herself, she would give me the hard-earned food to eat, cuddling me to sleep at night. I was naturally afraid of thunder, and when it thundered, she would comfort me by patting my back, just like you do. When I was sad, she would pick little flowers by the roadside to cheer me up."

"At any time, she always protected me."

"When my scoundrel father was displeased with me and wanted to beat me, she would stubbornly hold me and silently bear all the pain."

"In comparison, my father is the scoundrel among scoundrels. He joined a rogue faction in the local area and spends all day roving around with his group of idle friends, doing nothing good, only knows drinking, gambling, and visiting prostitutes, rarely coming home except to ask my mom for money and get drunk."

"My mom, due to giving birth to me without money or conditions to recover her health, was weak and sickly, unable to do laborious work, and could only do some handiwork and sewing at a neighbor’s tailor shop, earning meager money that wasn’t even enough for meals, yet the scoundrel would take it away every time he came home. When we couldn’t produce any money, he would lose his temper and abuse us, even trying to force my mom into prostitution to earn money."

"My mom fiercely resisted, preventing the scoundrel from succeeding, but he would still come by every once in a while demanding money, and if my mom couldn’t give it, he would abuse us. When my mom and I could no longer bear it and tried to escape, he would gather his idle friends to search the city for us and drag us back to beat us up."

"Once my mom fell seriously ill with a high fever, I took some of my mom’s saved eating money and borrowed some from neighbors, then hurriedly took her to the hospital for treatment. But on the way, we encountered the scoundrel. Following him were several vixens, and my mom and I then knew the money he took from home was to please those flashy women and to sleep with them."

"When the scoundrel and the vixen recognized my mother and saw the money I was holding, the vixen wanted a handbag, so she urged my father to snatch the life-saving money from me. Without a word, my father grabbed it, and when I tried to take it back, I got beaten up again."

"Without the life-saving money, I hated my father intensely. Although my mom tenaciously survived this peril, her health deteriorated severely, unable to do any work, couldn’t afford meals, nor wear warmly. With no other option, she took me north on a dark, windy night to seek refuge with my uncle, Jiang Wentao’s father."

"They refused to take us in, yet took advantage of the situation by robbing us of the money we begged for along the way."

"For the next few days, my mom and I went without shelter, until she and I starved for two days. She was forced to steal two meat buns from a bun shop to feed me, got chased for a long time, was beaten, and rained on. After that, her condition rapidly worsened, and after searching countless hospitals that refused to admit patients who couldn’t pay the medical fees, my mom died of illness on the street."

"My mom was a beam of light in the dark corners of my childhood, she gave me warmth, and gave me meticulous care and love, I love her deeply."

"Now I have the capability and money, I want to bring her back, take her to buy her favorite, but previously only gaze-from-afar, beautiful clothes, take her to fine restaurants to enjoy a lifetime of unexperienced delicacies, and take her to many, many places."

"For this goal, I am willing to give up everything, to sacrifice everything."

"The ’Doctor’ in the faction is the only one I know who has the possibility of helping revive my mother."

Jiang Shishuang smiled calmly: "So, I will never betray the faction, nor stand by your side. If you wish to get rid of me, then go ahead."

With that, she closed her beautiful eyes, making a gesture of letting Ye Huan deal with her as he may.

Ye Huan was silent for a long, long time, then said: "Your mother was a great person."
