Chapter 1575: Sixth Aunt's Past

Bai Yaoyao found their words amusing. These people were undoubtedly envious of her, so she would not bear grudges.

These people did not know at that moment. On a certain day, when they would watch the broadcast of their president's marriage, they would discover that that person they had ignored and disdained was his wife.

Just when they were looking at clothes, someone spoke up.

“Xiaoya, is that really you?”

Hearing that voice, Duan Xinya stiffened.

Bai Yaoyao saw her aunt's reaction and turned. Across the window stood a mature-looking man, who was holding hands with a young girl.

All sorts of scenarios flashed across Bai Yaoyao's mind as she tried to guess what may have happened.

“Xiaoya, is that really you?” The man held back tears in his eyes as he looked at Duan Xinya.

“Gao Jifeng, let go of me.”

“I'm not letting go. Xiaoya, it's been five years. I thought you've already…”

“Thought I've already what? I have no ties with you.”

Duan Xinya shook the man off immediately and ran outside.

The man wanted to chase after her, but he was stopped by Bai Yaoyao. “Excuse me, sir. Even if you want to chase Sixth Aunt, you have to see if she's willing.”

After speaking, Bai Yaoyao chased after Duan Xinya.

The young lady who was with the man reacted as well. “Auntie, Auntie…”

A long while after they boarded the car, Duan Xinya said to Bai Yaoyao, “I used to love him. He was once carved in my heart.”

“Aunt, don't be upset. Didn't I have a past as well? I've walked out of it too.”

Duan Xinya's expression was solemn. “Yaoyao, mine's different from yours.”

Duan Xinya did not continue, and Bai Yaoyao did not probe either. She simply held Duan Xinya's hand, comforting her in silence.

After dinner, Duan Yanhao thickened his skin and entered Bai Yaoyao's bedroom.

This time, however, Bai Yaoyao did not chase him out. Instead, she got him to sit down.

“Yaoyao, I knew it. You missed me too, right?” After he spoke, his hands moved towards her.

Bai Yaoyao held his hand down. “I want to ask you something. Did Aunt have a serious relations.h.i.+p in the past?”

“I think so. Sixth Aunt is actually not that much older than me, but as a senior, she's like a mother to me. I respect and love her a lot. I'm not sure about what happened in the past, but I knew that she changed a lot after she left home and returned a few years later. Grandfather ordered everyone not to talk about it.”

“In other words, you don't know about it as well?”

Duan Yanhao shook his head. “Yeah, I'm not clear about it as well.”

The next day, perhaps because of what happened yesterday, Duan Xinya's mood wasn't great as she chose to remain in her house for the day.

Bai Yaoyao was worried, but Old Master Duan and Duan Yanhao said to let her calm down by herself for now.

Staying a few days at home was boring as well. On a certain night, when everyone was sleeping, Duan Yanhao knocked on Bai Yaoyao's door.

Bai Yaoyao had just finished showering. Opening the door to see Duan Yanhao, she asked, “You're not going to go back to sleep?”

Duan Yanhao looked at Bai Yaoyao's appearance, which was akin to a lotus flower that had just bloomed. His gaze darkened as he tried his best to suppress the pa.s.sions within him. He spoke slowly, “Let me take you out somewhere.”

“It's already eight in the evening.”

“It's something important.”

After he spoke, Duan Yanhao tugged at Bai Yaoyao's arm.

Seeing the serious expression on Duan Yanhao's face, Bai Yaoyao nodded solemnly. “Okay, give me a moment to change.”
