Chapter 1152: Chapter 1175: The Cruel Truth

It was just too late to catch up.

"Do you know? Those people said I was his mistress and even mentioned that at my age, I am still becoming a mistress." Huo’s mother was quite embarrassed.

At the time, she was applying a facial mask and went to the restroom halfway, where she overheard those waitresses gossiping.

Usually, men come to such places with mistresses, while affluent women come with other affluent women.

Of course, it’s rare to see someone with a wrinkled face like hers.

She was so angry that she just walked out—and oh, she forgot to wash off the mask.

The security stopped her when she was leaving, which made her already bad mood even worse.

"When doing the facial mask, they said it was moisturizing and whitening, effective immediately. I see no difference – it’s not smoother or softer at all. Plus, he must think I’m old." Huo’s mother became more and more upset.

He’s having a mistress at his age; I haven’t even settled accounts with him yet, and he’s already insinuating that I’m old.

"You tell me, isn’t he just trying to annoy me? And he talks about rekindling our old romance—what nonsense."

After spending so much time with Ye Ranran, Huo’s mother had picked up some modern internet slang.

Ye Ranran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry; she hadn’t expected this couple could stir up such drama.

Old children, old children! The older people get, the more childlike they become, but they’re not even old yet and already acting like children.

"Mom, you’re overthinking it; dad meant well." Ye Ranran smiled gently.

"You’re actually defending him? How much money did he give you?" After all the delicious food she’d cooked for her, what an ungrateful, heartless child.

"I’m just stating the facts; if you don’t believe me, so be it." Ye Ranran stood up.

Huo’s mother thought Ye Ranran would comfort her again, but unexpectedly, she just walked away, just like that...

Ye Ranran truly didn’t know how to comfort her, thinking the one who caused the trouble should solve it.

Since it was Huo’s father who had caused the trouble, he would have to be the one to solve it.

"Ranran, thank you." Huo’s father looked at her gratefully.

Indeed, having a daughter-in-law at home is good. Relying on Jun Mochan and Huo Yi for such matters? They would definitely ignore it decisively.

"You’re welcome." Ye Ranran picked up the prunes from the table and started eating.

After becoming pregnant, she had developed the habit of eating snacks, with prunes being what she ate the most, practically everywhere.

Just as she was enjoying her snack, her phone rang, and a photo came through with an address below.

Seeing the long whip mark in the photo, Ye Ranran’s pupils constricted and she quickly walked outside.

"Go to the address above." Ye Ranran showed the address to One.

One frowned, "Madam, why go there?"

It was already 9 PM, and she should be going home to wash up and sleep. Why bother with this?

"Ah Ze seems to be in trouble; I need to check on him." Ye Ranran sounded a bit anxious.

Ah Ze again? One’s expression turned stern, and his tone icy, "If he’s dead, he’s dead. Why bother so much?"

She has no direct relation to him, yet she keeps interfering. Is she bored out of her mind?

"Just go if I told you to." Why are you saying the same things as Jun Mochan? It seems like if they’re not from one family, they don’t understand each other’s thoughts.

"He’s like a venomous snake; who knows when he might bite you? Why bother saving him?" One was still reluctant.

He really wanted to tell Ye Ranran the truth, but deep down, he still wanted to preserve a bit of illusion for Ye Ranran.

In her mind, she thought of Song Ze as a foolish, delicate, lovely child, and he hoped she would always think of him that way.

She shouldn’t know the brutal truth.
