Jiao Chen glanced at Su Yue .
Su Yue frowned and asked, “Why didn’t you ask me where I was hurt?”
Jiao Chen replied, “Where is the wound?”
“My chest . ” Su Yue pointed at her left chest . She answered, “That tattoo is gone . ”
Her awesome cat tattoo that was better than Uncle Ming’s tattoo was gone .
She would feel sad every time she thought of it . But she felt that it might be a good thing that it was gone . That meant that she had nothing to do with Uncle Ming anymore .
Although… she had pure intentions when she first got the tattoo .
But now, their love for each other had made their relationship complicated . The meaning of the tattoo on her chest naturally had changed too .
So, it was a good thing it was gone .

At the thought of it, Su Yue felt as if her wound started to hurt again .
Without a doubt, Jiao Chen should have seen her half-naked photo and her tattoo .
Jiao Chen merely responded as he continued to peel the apple quietly .
Su Yue pouted and complained, “Why do you seem like you don’t care about me at all?”
“Eat the apple . ” Jiao Chen passed the peeled apple to Su Yue .
Su Yue gazed at Jiao Chen’s face . He had worn a deadpan expression on his face and there wasn’t any hint of emotions .
She pursed her lips and received the apple . She took a huge bite .
It was warm in the ward and Su Yue was feeling thirsty . Su Yue happily munched the juicy and crunchy apple .
Jiao Chen frowned as he watched her . “Eat slowly . ”

“Jiaojiao . ” Su Yue glanced at him .
“Huh?” Jiao Chen replied .
Su Yue asked, “Are you nice to other people as well?”
Jiao Chen nodded quietly .
Su Yue took another bite of the apple and waited for his answer .
Jiao Chen quipped, “My mother . ”
He smiled and it revealed rows of his straight and pearly-white teeth .
It was a smile that was rarely seen on his face . He was thrilled, and he seemed cheeky too .
It startled Su Yue .
“Your mother must treat you really well?” asked Su Yue .
“Yup . ” Jiao Chen nodded and pressed on, “She is nice to all of them . ”
“All of them?” It confused Su Yue .
What did he mean by that?
Jiao Chen answered softly, “She works at an orphanage . ”
Her mother works at an orphanage and he wasn’t ashamed of her . He sounded as if he was proud of his mother .
Su Yue’s first instinct was to flinch at the mention of the word ‘orphanage’ . But she didn’t as she peered at Jiao Chen in a daze . She was puzzled and confused .
“Su Yue, I grew up in an orphanage,” Jiao Chen calmly said as he looked at Su Yue .
He didn’t feel ashamed to reveal that he grew up in an orphanage as well .
Su Yue’s eyes were huge with surprise as she stared at Jiao Chen . He had a huge and wide smile on his face . “Jiaojiao…”
Jiaojiao grew up in an orphanage, too .
But why?
She thought he had a sister?
She had met her sister, and she mentioned that they had a grandmother . So, why would he end up at an orphanage?
Jiao Chen knew exactly what Su Yue was thinking of . He smiled as he softly said, “I’m also an illegitimate son that shouldn’t be seen in public . ”
Su Yue was dumbfounded .
She recalled the cryptic words that Jiao Chen had said to her the other day .
‘Su Yue, you’re not the only person in this world…’
So… he was referring to this . He wanted to say that he was an illegitimate child as well .
