Her confession was a shot to her heart, and it pried open the long-hidden wound that was hurting inside her.

From a young age, she had moved from place to place. She did not even know how her biological father looked like. For as long as she could remember, she only knew of a mother, and this closest kin left her when she was still young.

She finally managed to have a home. Despite being unrelated by blood, Yun Yecheng still gave her a home!

Although not everyone in this family was kind to her, she was not short of daily necessities.

Repaying gratitude with kindness was a principle she had always lived by. After all, her adoptive father provided financial support for her postgraduate studies even though he himself was strapped on cash. Her heart was not made of iron, and she could not bear to look on unfeelingly as her father was driven into desperation.

With no room to retreat, she signed that humiliating contract.

Was it something she wanted, though? What she wanted... was to protect her family!

Questions were constantly being fired at him, and Mu Yazhe was caught off guard by these.

He had never seen her lose control of her emotions.

Right now, she seemed to be filled with despair and helplessness. The toughness she had tried so hard to create instantly crumbled. She was completely defeated.

“What mistake did I make in my past life? Did I owe you? Have I killed someone, committed arson, or been a heinous criminal? YES! I was in the wrong. I shouldn’t have taken away your child, but Youyou... He’s also my child! I’m willing to be accountable and pay the money I owe you for the breach of contract. I’ll return it to you even if I have to use every penny I earn in my entire life! You wanted me to stay by your side, and I agreed to that as well, so how could you humiliate me like that? I’m a human being and not an item! I have my thoughts and emotions; I have my tempers, and I know pain as well. The words you spout, why are they always like knives, cutting into people and making them hurt? I’m your woman, so am I not supposed to have dignity? Do I not have the rights to have dignity as a human being? How lowly am I exactly that you have to trample on me like this? Do I have to open myself up and let you take whatever you want with me just because I’m your woman?! Is this what you really want? Not for me!”

Suddenly, he held her cheeks firmly and shouted, “SHUT UP!”

He almost suffocated from her monologue! Each word he heard filled him with apprehension. He hated her asking him these questions. Was he like that? Was he this terrible in her eyes?

After his bellow, she bit her lower lip tightly and never spoke further.

She then stared at him with tears gushing out like a river.

Still, the indignation and hardships she had bottled up for over a decade, how could they completely be explained by yelling from the bottom of one’s heart and shedding a few drops of tears?!

She was not a puppet; she had human feelings as well. When she was happy, she wanted to smile. When she was sad, she wanted to cry. However, she could not cry – Youyou was afraid of her tears. He was afraid that she was heartbroken or hurt.

Thus, she tried her best to conceal her weaknesses.

Yun Na might be envious of her good fortune of being recognized by Lin Fengtian, taking a leap into the entertainment industry, and perhaps having a bright future ahead of her!

However, she was also envious of Yun Na for having doting parents who unconditionally loved her and easily forgave her mistakes!

She only wanted to be an average woman of flesh and blood rather than a walking corpse. She wanted to be loved, to be accepted, and to be cared for. At the very least, she did not want to be treated unfairly like this!

She stretched her hand out to push the man away as she broke down, but he just had to remain standing in the same position, erect like a mountain. No matter how much she pushed and shoved, he did not move an inch.
