The living room was brightly lit, without the slightest feeling of darkness.

Every corner of the house was full of light.

Madam An looked at her wise and sensible daughter-in-law before looking back at her ice-cold son.

"Look, Alan, a daughter is still the best. It's not like a son with a cold and caring mother." Madam An smiled as she spoke, but there was no complaint in her words. Her heart was filled with happiness.

Of course, Aunt Lan knew what a lady was. What she really wanted to say was that she blamed her son for not being considerate enough.

An Haoxuan naturally understood his mother's intentions. He walked forward and put an arm around He Chuxue's shoulders, saying in a roguish manner, "Without a son, how can I bring back such a heartless daughter-in-law for you? She's the same as your own daughter, how nice, how unsatisfied."

Madam An looked at An Haoxuan with disdain, but didn't have any intention of paying any attention to him. As expected, in the next second, she looked at He Chu Xue with a smile and said enthusiastically, "Chu Xue, let's go eat. Ignore him!"

For a person of Madam An's age, there were quite a few children who had such uncomfortable thoughts.

He Chuxue smiled as she put her arm around Madam An's shoulders. Without even glancing at An Haoxuan, she agreed with a smile.

"Ma, I'm hungry."

He Chu Xue revealed a rarely seen delicate aura of a child in front of an elder, which made her seem even cuter.

An Haoxuan stood at the back, watching the two women as they walked and laughed.

He shook his head helplessly.

One was his mother and the other was his woman. In the end, he was the only one left.

He couldn't get angry just like that. He had to accept his fate and bear the pain alone.

After all, they were the two most important women in his life.

Half an hour later, An Haoxuan finally realized what it felt like to be ignored.

He Chuxue and Madam An echoed each other's words after the meal. Each of them would add more dishes to the other, and both of them would appreciate each other's affection for something they liked.

Fortunately, it was over early. Otherwise, An Haoxuan would have surely exploded.

After dinner, Madam An absolutely insisted on taking He Chuxue for a walk around the garden. She said that it would be good for digesting and that she wouldn't let An Haoxuan follow her. Otherwise, it would hinder the quiet conversation between the two of them.

An Haoxuan happened to have some work to do, so after giving some instructions, he directly went upstairs.

He Chuxue and Madam An went for a walk together in the garden.

He felt a bit full after the meal.

The night was very dark.

There were only a few street lamps on one of the paths in the garden.

The sky was already filled with twinkling stars.

For people who lived in large cities all year round, it was already an extravagant hope to see so many stars in the sky.

The neon lights of this slow city had completely replaced the existence of the stars.

It had to be said that when Chu Xue saw this sky full of stars, her heart was very excited.

Raising his head to look at the sky full of stars, he instantly felt as if the softest part of his heart had been poked.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Madam An said with a smile as she looked at He Chuxue, who was holding her head high and looking at the sky.

"Yeah, but it's very beautiful. It has a special feeling to it." He Chu Xue still maintained her position of raising her head, the corner of her mouth carrying a smile.

Madam An smiled as she looked at the stars in the sky. "In the past, when Hao Xuan's father was still here, he had always said that such a sky was the purest. So after all these years, I still like the old house at night the most. "

As He Chu Xue listened, she looked around the old house.

It had to be said that the old dwelling at night was quite unique.

If the residence during the day could be said to be solemn and magnificent, then the residence at night would have an extra layer of silence, a feeling of tranquility as if it were a distant place.

"Yeah, this old mansion really has a unique smell." He Chu Xue couldn't help but sigh emotionally as she looked at this old house.

Madam An smiled, pointed to a nearby bench, and suggested, "Shall we go over there?"

He Chu Xue nodded and took Madam An's arm and walked away. Actually, He Chu Xue was afraid that Madam An would slip and fall because it was too dark. At least he could keep an eye on her.

The two men walked arm in arm to the bench and sat down.

He Chuxue saw that Madam An's shawl was slightly sliding down, so she reached out her hand to help her lift it up.

He Chu Xue looked at the arrangement of the garden. It was really exquisite. The flower beds, the path, and even the position of the bench was very ingenious.

"This garden must have taken a lot of effort to decorate." He Chu Xue was a bit lost in thought as she said.

Madam An seemed to be lost in her own memories as she smiled and said, "That's right, this garden was personally arranged by Hao Xuan's father. He said that this garden is the best place to belong, so I must properly decorate this house. At that time, I loved roses, so he made me this flower bed and gave it to me.

Madam An's voice sounded a little choked as she finished her sentence.

He Chu Xue stretched out her hand and lightly patted her back. She comforted him to the point that she wanted to calm his emotions.

Madam An stretched out her hand to hold He Chuxue's hand, smiling as she said, "Aiya, it's alright. It's been so many years since I've gotten used to it. Now that I think about it, it seems like the current situation."

"Father An must be a very good person." The corner of He Chu Xue's mouth curved into a smile.

An Haoxuan was a very good person, so his father definitely wasn't bad either.

Madam An organized her emotions and held He Chu Xue's hand as she said, "Chu Xue, I hope that the two of you can live a good life together and the two of you can live a good life together."

He Chuxue knew that this was Madam An's true purpose in bringing her to the garden. However, He Chuxue was not against it.

Because in He Chu Xue's long life, there had never been an elder who spoke so much to her with so much sincerity.

He Chu Xue felt that it was very precious.

"Actually, the reason I didn't agree with you at the beginning was because I was worried that you were a little girl with bad intentions. But later on, I saw that Hao Xuan was so angry when you were injured, just like his father was back then. I will never forget that look in his eyes, and I know that some of the reason why you were injured was because of me.

Madam An lightly patted the back of He Chu Xue's hand and continued, "So, can you forgive mother? Ma's done a lot of wrong things. "

"Mom, what are you saying? You're my senior and you're doing this for Haoxuan. You're not in the wrong." He Chu Xue said with a face full of disagreement.

Madam An smiled and said, "Silly child, your mother has still harmed you."

Madam An looked at He Chu Xue who was trying to find a way to make her happy. She couldn't help but feel regret in her heart. How could she have treated such a good child like this in the past?

As expected, old age was easy to be ignored by others.

"Mom, you are my elder. I have never resented your actions, so don't blame yourself for it. If you have to do something important in the future, you have to live. So don't blame yourself anymore, okay? Promise me. " He Chuxue solemnly looked at Madam An and said.

He Chuxue knew that if she didn't explain these things clearly, then these things would always be in his heart and wouldn't end well. Only when everything was explained would it be fine.

Once Madam An heard He Chuxue's words, she couldn't help but be excited in her heart. "Good, good, good. Mom will definitely not be like this in the future. Live a good life."

He extended his hand and pulled He Chu Xue into his embrace.

The knot in their hearts was finally opened.

The moon climbed into the night sky, casting all its light down on the earth, illuminating every corner.

After a while, He Chuxue and Madam An returned to their room together, mainly because they were afraid that He Chuxue's body wouldn't be able to withstand the chilliness of the night.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw An Haoxuan, who was about to leave.

"Why can't I see your wife later!" Seeing how worried he was, he knew what he was going to do. He decided that he wouldn't be worried about his wife so he quickly went to pick her up.

As a mother, how could she not know what her son was thinking?

Despite An Haoxuan's cold personality, he still touched his nose in embarrassment after having his thoughts stabbed by someone else. Only after looking at He Chuxue's normal expression did he feel at ease.

"You also said that you let her stay outside for such a long time even though you know that she hasn't recovered yet."

When he got to work, he suddenly saw the clock on the table.

Just then, she suddenly remembered that He Chu Xue had been out for a long time. Even though the weather was already very warm, the night air was still quite cold.

When she thought about He Chu Xue's incomplete recovery, she felt extremely weak. If she continued to freeze like this, she would become even more ill.

Therefore, he quickly put down his work and decided to go to the garden to bring them back. However, he didn't expect to see them enter the house the moment he stepped out of the door.

Only after seeing that her face was normal did she finally heave a sigh of relief.

"Alright, I'm fine. Don't say mom, I'm the one who likes to play." He Chu Xue walked up and held his hand as she said coquettishly.

"Hmph, still talking. I'll teach you a lesson when I get back." Even though he knew his body was fine, he still kept on running out.

Madam An was displeased when she heard An Haoxuan's tone.

"You're talking about you. If you have anything for me, just come at me. Don't bully her."

An Haoxuan was instantly angered and delighted. He had become a bad guy just like that.

This time, their relationship with each other was getting better and better, and they couldn't even help themselves anymore.

"You two, have you two made some sort of life-and-death acquaintance this time? "Hmm?" An Haoxuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two women who were colluding with him.

Madam An and He Chu Xue looked at each other and smiled. It was obvious that they didn't intend to answer An Haoxuan's question.

An Haoxuan felt that he had become the person who had been abandoned. With a wave of his arm, he stormed up the stairs.

Only the two women were left standing downstairs.

"What should we do? We're angry!" When Madam An saw that her usually cold and indifferent son had been angered, she still felt a little fearful.

It was something that made Madam An more unhappy than the fact that her own son was angry.

He Chu Xue smiled and said, "It's fine, you just have to worry about yourself."

"Why?" Madam An asked in confusion.

"Because I'm a patient who hasn't completely recovered." He Chuxue proudly raised her eyebrows and strutted upstairs.
