Before Yin Yanyue could react, Gong Ao let out another sigh, as if he was recalling the scene from back then.
"You saved the eighteen-year-old viscount from the fire when you were eight, but you went to the hospital because of your injuries."
Gong Ao paused for a moment, looked at her with a pained look for a few seconds, then spoke again, "But if you didn't enter the hospital because of the fire, Grandfather would have had no way of knowing that you had gastric cancer and wouldn't have had Yu Feng take the money to operate on you."
Yin Yanyue was stunned again. She was so shocked that her mouth gaped open. "Then the money was given to Uncle Bai by you?"
She remembered back then when Gong Yufeng brought her the treatment fee for gastric cancer and told her that he stole the money.
At that time, she was eight years old and believed in it. From then on, she considered Gong Yufeng as her God who saved her.
However, today, Gong Ao had told her that he got Gong Yufeng to bring the money over.
"I gave it to you."
Helplessness and guilt flashed across Gong Ao's eyes, his face was full of complex emotions. "All these years, Grandfather was unable to take care of you. But you are the only granddaughter of my grandfather, and you are the only one left in the entire Palace Family who is related to my grandfather by blood. "
Yin Yanyue's expression was indifferent, without any emotion.
She had been left out for fifteen years as an orphan, and now Miyako suddenly ran up to her and said he had been unworthy of her.
The words sounded ironic to her ears.
Gong Ao also knew that he had snubbed Yin Chengyue for too long, she wouldn't easily believe anything he said, but he still wanted to give an explanation.
He let out a sigh of relief, his eyes didn't seem to be lying at all, "All these years, grandpa only wanted to protect you, so he didn't care about you at all. Every single person in the Gong Family knows that you are the only one remaining of the Palace's bloodline, and as long as I give you one more glance, someone will harass you. "
"At first, when the viscount said he wanted to marry you, I was opposed to it. Grandfather was worried that you would be exposed to the public after your marriage to the viscount, and that people would once again be interested in your identity. But the young noble promised me that he would protect you to the end, and that's why I agreed to this marriage. "
"Grandfather."
Yin Chengyue suddenly interrupted him, but her face was still expressionless, "I'm tired."
She did not want to hear such useless words. In any case, she had come alone all these years, so she did not care about the palace's wealth.
Gong Ao was suddenly interrupted by her, even his mouth was open, a trace of loneliness flashed across his eyes.
He had been worried long ago that Dai Yue would not understand his actions, but the interior of the palace and the upper echelons of the entire palace were so chaotic that it was hard to fathom them. He was even more worried that Dai Yue, his young self, would suffer, which was why he used such a method to protect her.
"Dad?"
The young noble pushed open the door and entered, slowly walking into the room, looking at Gong Ao in shock.
He didn't think that Gong Ao would suddenly come to his house to look at Ran Yue.
Gong Ao turned around and glanced at him, preparing to leave immediately. "When you come back, keep her company during dyeing the moon. Don't let her get sick again."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the room.
"Alright."
The young noble was startled, following him with his eyes.
"Uncle Gu."
Yin Yanyue sat on the bed, looking up at him with an unusually serious expression. "I want to ask you something."
The young noble came back to his senses, looking into her eyes, "Ask."
He didn't know what his father had said to her, but he believed it must be something very important, or his father wouldn't have come by himself.
"What happened to the money my dad left me after he died?"
After her father died, he left her a large sum of money, which she had planned to use to treat her stomach cancer.
However, he didn't expect to suddenly receive news that Uncle Gu had invested her money and successfully invested it into the Palace Group, allowing him to gain a foothold in the group.
After hearing her question, Young Viscount Gong couldn't help but frown, "Why are you suddenly asking me this? The money was taken away by Liman, who assured everyone that it would be on your account. "
Back then, he was only 18 years old and had just entered the Palace Group. He did not know anything, much less the tricks of an adult.
He didn't have the right to help Yin Yanyue collect the money. He could only watch as Lin Man took the money. He did not know where the last money went, and at that time, Lin Man had indeed guaranteed that it would be transferred to Yin Xiaoyue's account.
Yin Yanyue froze, his face instantly turned ugly.
All these years, she had been deceived by too many people, causing her to always hate the young noble, thinking that he was the one who ruined her life.
However, she didn't expect that many things weren't the truth like what she previously knew. On the contrary, it was the complete opposite.
Yin Yanyue took a deep breath, laid down slowly, turned over, and buried herself in the blanket. "Uncle Gu …" I miscarried. "
She wasn't sad that she had miscarried. It was just that she suddenly felt that something was strange and inexplicable in her heart … He was a little concerned about it.
The young noble's breath caught in his throat, and his eyes were immediately filled with grief, but he still tried his best to comfort her, "As long as you are fine, that's good. You can start with everything else again."
Yin Yanyue didn't reply. She just buried her head in the blanket and closed her eyes.
If everything else can be redone...
She hoped that she wouldn't see the video of the viscount fiddling with her father's car. That way, she might be able to end her grudge with the viscount and lead a happy life.
But there was no 'if', so no matter how many misunderstandings she had with the young noble, there was still a knot in her heart — the death of her father.
But no matter what, she had already begun to try to accept the viscount, trying to let go of her final knot in her heart to selfishly pursue her own happiness.
— —
In the following days, Yin Xianyue was like a sedan, staying at home to eat, drink and play, while the Crown Prince also spent a lot of time with her. On the contrary, he appeared to be a bit absent-minded when it came to work.
Yin Xianyue didn't show it on the surface, but he was actually very happy that he could spend some time with her.
The days passed one by one peacefully.
One night, the viscount did not return home.
Yin Chengyue sat on the sofa in the living room until one in the morning, but he didn't see the shadow of the viscount.
There was no answer.
"Miss."
Aunt Wang's figure appeared in her line of sight. She held a glass of milk in her hand and slowly placed it on the table beside her. "Drink your milk and go to sleep."
"Alright."
Yin Hongyue swept her gaze across the milk on the table. Although she replied, she did not take any action.
Aunt Wang sighed and comforted him, "Mr. Gong might have something important to take care of at work."
"Did he ever stay out all night?"
Yin Yanyue asked her with a serious tone.
Aunt Wang opened her mouth, but could not answer.
As far as she could remember, Mr. Gong had only called a few nights in the past few years to tell her that she didn't need to prepare dinner because he didn't come home for work.
But this time, she couldn't even get through to his phone. In fact, she was also very confused and worried.
However, she still had to calm down. On the surface, she was the first to comfort Yin Yanyue.
