Chapter 718 - Untitled

Su Ruyu hence woke up to face a dead child, whereas Su Ruhua had twin boys.

Su Ruhua’s parents rushed to the little clinic. All hell broke loose, and Su Ruyu almost went mad from overflowing hatred. Su Ruhua, on the other hand, was guilty and heartbroken, suffocated by the frustration and regret in her heart.

Her original intention was simple. Since the child, who was fathered by the man she loved, came as an accident, she had no intention to ruin Ruyu and Mo Shitian’s relationship. She knew that she could not love anybody else for the rest of her life and wanted to quietly deliver the child as a namesake. She hence hid in the manor where the old butler served her. She did not dare go to the hospital.

She knew that Ruyu and Mo Shitian were looking for her, and she also knew that they were about to get married. She originally wanted to deliver the child and then think about it. She would hide the child so well that Mo Shitian, and especially Ruyu, would not know about the child.

Little did they expect Fu Jin to suddenly bring Ruyu to the manor and the situation spun out of control.

She regretted her previous mistake!

If it weren’t for Ruyu coming to see her and her being shocked, she would not have lost her child. She hated how her greed caused her to lose her children and her. She almost knelt before Su Ruyu to beg for forgiveness, but Su Ruyu did not even look at her.

The relationship between the sisters ran into the ground thanks to the incident.

Su Ruyu was no longer willing to forgive Su Ruhua, nor did she want to see Su Ruhua. Su Ruhua was ashamed to face her, and she did not know how to explain it. Given how strong Su Ruyu’s character was, she could completely throw all favors aside when she became particularly mean. Her expression as she carried her dead child and looked at Su Ruhua’s twins sent Su Ruhua shivering and fearing for the safety of the children. She was exhausted from guarding against Su Ruyu.

Daddy and Mommy Su, who typically favored Su Ruhua, finally knew the emotional knot between their two daughters. Despite the incident having run its course, the children carried the blood of the Su family. Daddy Su could only have the old butler send the children away lest Su Ruyu really be enraged and kill the children.

Daddy and Mommy Su favored Su Ruhua but also doted on Su Ruyu. As parents, they hoped for a harmonious family where the sisters would not kill each other over the slightest conflict.

Su Ruyu’s heart, however, was dead, and it was filled with hatred instead.

She dragged her fragile and weak body along with that dead child away, but she did not allow anybody, Fu Jin included, to follow her. A few days later, she heard from Su Ruhua that Mo Shitian had rushed to Riyadh. At that time, Su Ruyu had already buried the child.

…

As time passed, misunderstandings and hatred that followed almost crushed Su Ruyu: the wiping of her memories, the recovery of her memories, her parents’ misunderstanding and slapping, and how her family was exterminated.

The Su sisters hated Mo Shitian.

The Su family was originally a happy family up until the day they were exterminated. Su Ruhua escaped with the twins, whereas Su Ruyu protected Su Man and ended up marooned in the Middle East.

…

Because of the Mo brothers, Su Ruhua was delayed and trapped for over a month due to storms on the oceans. When she heard wind of them, there was nary any news of them.

She later heard of Su Ruyu and Mo Shitian perishing together, and how Fu Jin had also gone missing.

Back then, she really thought that Su Ruyu really died and she was so heartbroken. The extermination of the Su family was indirectly due to Mo Shitian’s rage at Su Ruyu. He and the sisters were the cause of the Su family’s demise.

She was the only person left.

Su Ruhua also hated Mo Shitian. The intricate and complicated grudges of before made her hate herself even more, and even more so toward the two kids. She later handed the kids to Mo Shitian’s best buddy and disappeared off the radar.

When she came back to take care of Su Man, she did not expect herself to run into Mo Shitian, who did not die but instead brought news of Su Ruyu’s death. He took a few items from the Su’s mansion as Su Ruhu told him what happened to the twin boys. Not long later, she heard that Mo Shitian had left the Mafia and perished in a fire.

…

A few years later, the old butler was sick and wanted to return to the manor to recuperate. Su Ruhua sent him back and accompanied him in the manor for a while. One day, the butler finished his medicine, and Su Ruhua went out to buy medicine for him.

It happened to be that clinic and she encountered him. It was then she learned that the children were swapped; the children actually belonged to Su Ruyu.

…

The doctor was genre-savvy enough to seek refuge in another country after the incident for fear that Fu Jin would tie all loose ends. He was proven right as Fu Jin did eventually want to tie up all loose ends but could not locate him.

It wasn’t until everything died off that he returned to Riyadh with a pricking conscience that led him to the manor to clarify everything with the sisters. He reached the manor to only hear the janitor inform him that the Su family had met its demise. He thought that everybody in the Su family had died, and everything should have concluded.

But then, the doctor encountered Su Ruhua. He could no longer withstand his conscience pricking him and thus personally headed to the manor. It was then Su Ruyu learned that the twins actually belonged to Su Ruyu.

…

“What are you saying?!” Su Ruyu was unable to accept the truth. All along, she thought that she had lost her children, but she did not expect the children to be hers. Could that dead child have belonged to…

“It’s true. Ruyu, your elder sister isn’t lying to you.” Su Ruhua’s eyes were reddened.

With only the sisters in the back garden that so many had passed through ever since then, she was finally able to tell Ruyu everything. “I was looking for you for so long. I wanted to tell you that the children were still alive, and…”

‘Please forgive your elder sister!’

Su Ruyu stepped back and sat on the stone bench in a daze. Su Ruhua then said, “Back then, I did not know they were your children. I thought… When I heard about it, there was no longer any news about you.”

Su Ruyu gently smiled. She did know why she was even smiling, but she knew she looked uglier than when she was crying.

What kind of nonsense was this?

Should she be happy that her children were still alive? However, she was the one who walked out of them, and the boys did not call her their mother for over the past twenty years. She was also not the one who grew up with the boys, and she was not the closest to them.

They even hated her. She really should not get between their ‘parents’.

“Your children… Do they really belong to Shitian?” Su Ruyu suddenly looked up and asked. One could see the blood vessels in the white of her eyes.

Su Ruhua nodded. “Why?” Su Ruyu gritted her teeth.

“I’m sorry!” Su Ruhua closed her eyes.

“I do not want to hear your apology because I had heard enough of it twenty years ago. I want to know the truth. What exactly went on between the both of you?!” Su Ruyu said angrily. Why was she apologizing instead of telling her the truth?
