Chương 317: Volume 1] Chapter 316- Jae hyun.

. "If... if Jae Hyun was here, then..." His words trailed off, choked by the surge of emotions that overcame him, and he buried his face in the comfort of Madam Gu's shoulder.

Madam Gu held him tighter, her own heart breaking at the mention of their lost loved one. She didn't say a word, but the sorrow in her eyes and the strength in her embrace said everything that needed to be said. They stood there, holding each other, their shared grief palpable, mourning the absence of the one they had loved so dearly.

Madam Gu's thoughts drifted back to the past, where memories of her husband's cheerful smile filled her with a bittersweet longing. She vividly recalled the day he had excitedly told her he was pregnant, a moment of pure joy that had momentarily erased the horrors of war from her mind. The war had kept her away for so long, but when she finally returned, the servants had handed her a newborn baby wrapped in blue silk.
