Chapter 81: She Was the One Who Suffered the Most Lu Suo did not leave. He got tired of standing, so he sat next to Song Yujin and looked at him.

Song Yujin did not say anything. He continued to read.

After a while, Song Yujin felt thirsty. He went to get two bottles of mineral water and handed one to Lu Suo. The latter twisted the cap twice before saying, “I can’t open it.”

Song Yujin took the bottle and helped him open it.

Once again, Lu Suo was confused

Meanwhile, Song Ci followed Lu Gan back to their room. She said softly, “Don’t be angry.”

This was the first time she had seen Lu Gan so enraged. Even when the original Song Ci mocked him, he only felt disgusted. His actions were never so drastic.

Song Ci wanted to comfort him, but she did not know where to start. His own family had betrayed him!

She squatted in front of Lu Gan and said, “What kind of performance do you want to watch today? I want to practice my acting skills, so please feel free to request anything.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Gan felt much better.

“I’m fine. My family is a joke.”

“You should’ve met mine. They’re much worse.”

Lu Gan remembered she had a stepmother and half-sister.

“We’ve married. Shouldn’t you return and inform them?”

“No need! I don’t care about them at all. My father already chased us out in favor of his mistress. As for my grandfather’s family, they would marry and divorce solely for money. Having such a family is pointless. I only consider my late mother and Yujin as blood relatives. The others have nothing to do with me.”

Song Ci said calmly.

Lu Gan’s heart ached after hearing her words. He already knew about these matters, but they felt more personal now

“You’ve suffered a lot, haven’t you?”

“I’m alright.”

Song Ci smiled.

Actually, “Song Ci” did not suffer much. The only one who had to go through hardships was Kong Chuyun. She had always been weak and was bullied relentlessly. Worst of all, she dared not resist. It was because she had divorced twice. Both of her husbands never loved her. After Song Yujin was born, all the burden fell on her.

Moreover, “Song Ci” was an unruly daughter. She could not accept such a life at all and cleared out all of Kong Chuyun’s money. As a result, Song Yujin could not even afford to pay for school. Kong Chuyun went around begging for money so her son would have a better future. However, she fell sick from overworking and passed away.

Before Kong Chuyun died, she entrusted Song Yujin to “Song Ci”. Unfortunately, “Song Ci” only saw Song Yujin as a burden. Her hatred for Kong Chuyun kept growing. She hated her mother for being weak in every aspect. It was Kong Chuyun’s fault that her life was a mess.

Basically, all “Song Ci” ever did was despise others.

Song Ci did not want Lu Gan to feel sorry for “Song Ci”. Therefore, she looked at him and said, “The only person who truly suffered from beginning to the end was my mother. She was just too soft-hearted and had always been grateful for everything. Furthermore, she never harbored any ill intentions towards anyone.”

After letting out a sigh, Song Ci decided not to dwell on this topic anymore. She asked again, “So, what kind of performance do you want to watch today?”

“For now, nothing.”

Lu Gan already felt much better.

“You should rest for a while. I’m going to take a shower.”

Song Ci did not feel like resting at all. There were still other things she could do.

“Then I’ll go check on the two children.”

“Okay. They must be scared after what happened today. You should comfort them.”

Song Ci thought to herself, ‘You really have no idea… I reckon that neither of them is afraid!’

Nonetheless, she smiled and replied, “Okay.”

Lu Gan looked at Song Ci’s face and suddenly felt happy. He had never experienced this feeling before. Out of nowhere, he reached out and pulled Song Ci into his embrace.

Almost immediately, Song Ci’s heart began racing.
