Mu Chen clenched his hands tightly, unable to vent his pain.
Upon seeing this, Song Ning moved to his side and hugged him.
Mu Chen rested his head against her chest as he said sorrowfully, "The person my father wanted to marry back then was my aunt. However, my aunt broke off the engagement and eloped with another man. In order to preserve their reputation, my maternal grandfather and grandmother decided to marry my mother off in her sister's place instead since they were twins. My mother did not want to deceive the Mu family and came clean about her identity to Grandma and my father despite the Liang family's wish."
"After the pain subsided, my father forgave my mother, and Grandma accepted her. To be honest, if there weren't any feelings between my parents at that time, they would not have given birth to me. My mother was stubborn, especially when it came to love and marriage."
