Wen Qian said apologetically:

"I've been living with the Wen family all these years, but it's just not convenient for me to see you and my sister..."

Upon hearing this, Wen Qingqing had a sudden inspiration.

He said dejectedly:

"Is it because of your grandfathers?"

She had also seen through the shamelessness of the five elders of the Wen family.

Therefore, I subconsciously thought of the truth.

It was only then that Wen Qingqing realized that the corpses on the ground were actually the five elders of the Wen family.

He asked in astonishment:

"How come all the grandfathers are dead? Did you kill them, Brother Gu?"

She was not as severely affected by the blows from the five elders of the Wen family as Wen Yi and Wen Qian.

I've lived in the Wen family home for so many years.

Seeing the five elders of the Wen family die, it was inevitable to feel some sadness.

But for most, it was a sense of liberation.

Gu Hanyuan shook his head and chuckled:

"It was that Miss He who killed him."

He Hongyao had been sizing up Wen Qingqing for a while.

At this moment, Wen Qingqing looked over.

That face, which she loathed, still faintly bore the shadow of Xia Xueyi.

For a moment, He Hongyao didn't know whether she should hate her or not.

He said with a complicated expression:

"Are you Xueyi's daughter?"

"what?"

Wen Qingqing was baffled by what she heard.

Gu Hanyuan explained from the side:

"Qingqing doesn't know about her background yet."

Wen Qingqing hurriedly asked:

"Brother Gu, do you know about my background?"

She never knew who her biological father was when she was a child.

Even asking Wenyi wouldn't yield an answer.

Every time I ask...

Wen Yi could only silently shed tears.

Over time, Wen Qingqing stopped asking.

At this moment, Gu Hanyuan appeared to know the truth.

That's something I can still endure.

Gu Hanyuan no longer needed to hide anything from Wen Qingqing.

He slowly revealed the truth of what happened back then.

The grudges and entanglements between the Wen family and Xia Xueyi back then are revealed through Gu Hanyuan's narration.

Wen Qian and He Hongyao both looked somewhat sorrowful.

However, compared to He Hongyao, who couldn't help but shed tears.

Wen Qian was in a much better mood.

After all, she has moved on and has a new lover now.

Her gaze toward Gu Hanyuan also became tender and affectionate.

Wen Qingqing learned the truth about what happened back then.

She murmured incredulously:

"So my father was the Golden Snake Swordsman."

After all, Wen Qingqing received education from the five elders of the Wen family since childhood, and Xia Xueyi was the Wen family's greatest enemy.

Suddenly, her mortal enemy became her biological father.

This reversal brought her quite a shock.

It's normal to not be able to accept it right away.

Wen Qingqing suddenly asked urgently:

"Brother Gu, where's my mother? Is she alright?"

She wanted to confirm with Wen Yi again.

It's not that I don't trust Gu Hanyuan.

I just want a reason that I can accept with peace of mind.

A hint of amusement flashed in Gu Hanyuan's eyes.

He chuckled and said:

"Wen Yi is fine, I'll go pick her up in a bit."

He comforted Wen Qingqing, saying:

"It's getting late. Qingqing, let's talk about it tomorrow. There's no rush."

Wen Qingqing was somewhat displeased upon hearing this.

But she obediently agreed anyway.

Gu Hanyuan then spoke gently to He Hongyao:

“Miss He, why don’t you stay for the night?”

He Hongyao listened to Gu Hanyuan's gentle words.

I felt a little touched.

The only man who hasn't disliked her over the years inevitably makes her feel concerned.

He Hongyao hesitated.

He Tieshou also tried to persuade him from the side:

"Auntie, just stay here and keep me company."

He Hongyao glanced at Gu Hanyuan and He Tieshou.

I reluctantly agreed.

Gu Hanyuan smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this.

He instructed He Tieshou:

“Miss He, why don’t you take your aunt to wash up? I know the rules of your Five Poisons Sect. But there’s no need to follow them here.”

He Tieshou had long been impatient with the Five Poisons Sect's punishment of He Hongyao.

She said with a charming laugh:

"Since Young Master Gu has given his instructions, I, the humble leader of the Five Poisons Sect, will naturally comply."

Gu Hanyuan reached out and pinched He Tieshou's nose under He Hongyao's surprised gaze.

He chuckled helplessly.

"Naughty."

He Tieshou blushed deeply because of Gu Hanyuan's intimate gesture.

But I felt no aversion whatsoever; on the contrary, I was filled with joy.

He Tieshou said with a charming smile:

"Then I'll take my aunt with me first."

With that, he pulled the still somewhat dazed He Hongyao away.

Wen Qingqing then pouted.

She's obviously jealous again.

Gu Hanyuan was already quite adept at dealing with jealous Wen Qingqing.

He moved closer to her in front of Wen Qian.
