Han Yu knew that his daughter-in-law wouldn’t admit it so easily. If it really didn’t matter, why deny it so quickly? Wasn’t that a sign of a guilty conscience? Besides, he had made up his mind to have his daughter-in-law confess everything in her heart today, so he naturally had the patience to wait. Otherwise, if this continued, not to mention the child in her stomach, even his daughter-in-law herself couldn’t bear it.

After Su Wenyue finished speaking and saw that Han Yu was not responding, she waited for a while, and then couldn’t help but lift her head to look at Han Yu. However, she saw that he was also looking at her with a deep, serious gaze and an indecipherable expression, which made her heart tighten, and she lowered her head again.

Han Yu would naturally not let Su Wenyue evade him. With a firm movement of his arm, he turned her around to face him.

“Daughter-in-law, it seems that there are some things that we need to talk about clearly today. I hope we can both be honest and not hold anything back,” said Han Yu. Seeing that Su Wenyue’s face had not changed, but her mouth was tightly pursed, he softened his tone.

“Even if there’s something you don’t want to discuss, you can just tell me directly that you don’t want to talk about it. Don’t make up lies to deceive me. That should be fine, right?”

Hearing Han Yu say this, Su Wenyue reluctantly nodded.

Han Yu sighed, “I don’t mean to force you, but you should know what the doctor said. If this continues, the child in your stomach will be in danger. Didn’t you say that our baby is precious? Is this how you cherish them?”

Su Wenyue indeed knew. Doctor Lin had said those words without avoiding her, probably also as a way to advise her to relax. Hearing Han Yu’s words made her feel somewhat at fault.

She was indeed trying her best. No one knew how much she valued the child in her womb, but whenever she thought of that man and the events of the previous life, she couldn’t get past the barrier in her heart. In fact, what terrified Su Wenyue the most was not what had happened in her previous life, but the fear that Sikong Ling’s appearance might affect her current life and her hard-won happiness might thus be lost.

In her previous life, it was because Sikong Ling had set his sights on her, using despicable means to get her, and she had been blinded by infatuation, following Sikong Ling and ruining the entire latter half of her life, ending in such a tragic outcome.

“Daughter-in-law, we are people who are going to spend a lifetime together. Haven’t you said that you would trust and rely on me? No matter what happened in the past, you are always my daughter-in-law, the mother of my children, and I won’t blame you,” Han Yu feared that Su Wenyue was keeping silent because she was worried about upsetting him.

Upon hearing Han Yu say this, Su Wenyue indeed looked up at him, seemingly to confirm the sincerity of his words.

“I’m serious. Whatever happened is in the past. I believe that since the day you married me, you haven’t had other intentions and have been wholeheartedly determined to live a real life with me. Everyone makes mistakes at some point. What can’t be forgiven?” Han Yu persisted, encouraging Su Wenyue.

Seeing Han Yu’s determination to have a heart-to-heart conversation with her, Su Wenyue realized that today, she would have to confess something. Moreover, she was afraid that Han Yu would overthink it. Doctor Lin’s words must have been relayed to Han Yu by Grandma Chen and Aunt Li. If she did not address the issue properly and let Han Yu harbor any grudges over this matter, it would not be good.

However, she still needed to choose her words carefully. Su Wenyue’s resolve had not changed; the events that had happened with Sikong Ling in the previous life were absolutely unspeakable. Even if Han Yu were the most forgiving, he would not forgive a woman who, out of vanity, had cuckolded him. However, it might be possible to speak about Sikong Ling’s character, to share some unimportant half-truths, especially to remind Han Yu to guard against Sikong Ling so that Sikong Ling’s schemes wouldn’t turn on Han Yu.

“Husband, I truly love our child, and I care a lot about our family, but, but I’m scared, sniffle…” As Su Wenyue explained, she lost control and burst into tears.

Seeing his daughter-in-law finally open up relieved Han Yu. He had been afraid she would stubbornly keep everything to herself, refusing to talk. Crying was fine; it was a good opportunity to vent her emotions and prevent them from festering inside.

Su Wenyue cried in Han Yu’s arms for a long while, stopping only out of fear of harming the baby in her belly. Her eyelids were somewhat swollen from crying, but she felt much more at ease internally, and she calmed down, waiting for Han Yu to question her.

“Daughter-in-law, are you acquainted with Sikong Yu?” Han Yu asked, knowing she had readied herself for the conversation.

When Su Wenyue heard Han Yu mention Sikong Yu’s name, her eyelids twitched. True to his former status as Prime Minister, just a glance on the street had been enough for him to find out the man’s name, and he likely had also investigated the man’s background. If not for the events of her previous life, which could not be traced, she probably would not have been able to keep it hidden.

Seeing her reaction, Han Yu concluded she recognized Sikong Yu even without asking who he was. The previous reactions suggested familiarity, or why else display such fear and agitation, even with elements of loathing? Luckily there were no other emotions involved.

“How did you get to know him, and did Sikong Yu do anything to frighten you afterward?”

Han Yu’s questions always hit the mark directly, his gaze locked intensely on Su Wenyue, trying to decipher something from her reactions.

But Su Wenyue remained silent, prompting Han Yu to ask with patience, “Why aren’t you speaking? Is it something you can’t tell?”

Su Wenyue shook her head, “It’s not that I can’t tell. It’s just that I don’t know how to explain it. I’m afraid you won’t believe me if I do. It’s the kind of thing that hardly anyone would believe.”

Upon hearing Su Wenyue say this, a deep look flashed in Han Yu’s eyes. If no one would believe it, it suggested that the matter defied common sense.

“You don’t need anyone else to believe it. It’s enough if I believe you. Have you forgotten what I said just a while ago?” coaxed Han Yu smoothly, not wanting her to back down now that she was willing to speak.

“Actually, I’ve told you before about a very realistic dream I had. It felt like I had lived another lifetime in that dream, and it was in that lifetime that I got to know Sikong Ling. But it wasn’t the present, it was a few years later, so I was so surprised to see Sikong Ling.”

Hearing Su Wenyue’s explanation, Han Yu had a sense of vindication, more convinced than before when he thought she might be making up a lie. He started to believe her because he really could not find any connection between Su Wenyue and Sikong Ling. However, her expression suggested more than just surprise.

“What’s the nature of your acquaintance with him, and after meeting him, did anything happen that frightened you?”

Han Yu always asked straight to the heart of the matter, his gaze fixed intensively on Su Wenyue, eager to infer something from her response.
