Su Wan couldn't help but ask Luo Xiuxiu for the photo album and flipped through it page by page.

The more she looked at it, the more frightened she became.

Without a doubt, this was the photo album of Xuecheng when he was young. It recorded every detail of Xuecheng from the moment he was born.

After all, parents liked to record their children, so it wasn't strange for them to have this photo album.

But the main point was, how could Qiran… be so similar to Jiang Xuecheng?

Su Wan's heart was pounding non-stop, and even her palms were sweating profusely.

She kept feeling as if someone was gripping her heart and pulling it forcefully. An indescribable sense of shock invaded her entire body.

Su Wan seemed to have been possessed.

"Why does even the outline look so similar…"

Su Wan mumbled softly. She thought her voice was very soft, but it still fell into the ears of the people present.

Jiang Xuecheng stood behind her thoughtfully, staring at the photo album. He felt as if there was something pulling him, telling him what the answer was.

Luo Xiuxiu could not help but laugh when she saw that the young couple were so engrossed and confused.

"Xuecheng, Wan Wan, what's wrong with you two? Isn't it normal for your biological son to look like that? Why are you so shocked?!"

Su Wan's lips quivered.

Her heartbeat quickened when she heard Luo Xiuxiu's words.

Biological son, looks like that…

How could that be?!

This must be a joke from God.

They had randomly adopted a child, but it turned out to be so similar to Jiang Xuecheng.

A smile that was uglier than crying appeared on Su Wan's lips.

She did have a child with Jiang Xuecheng, but before that child could be born successfully, it was taken away by that cruel woman, the high priest.

Moreover, she had cut open her belly in such an unbearable way and taken it out of her belly alive.

Su Wan was injected with a large amount of anesthetic at that time. Her consciousness was dizzy, so she did not see the bloody scene when the child was taken out.

She only remembered that her clothes were completely dyed red by the scarlet blood, and terrifying blood-red flowers bloomed on the operating table. It was strange and terrifying.

There were also those lab workers in white coats and white masks. In their eyes, there was not a single trace of human emotion. They were completely dehumanizing!

At that time, she knew that her child was already dead.

It died after eight weeks. It was not even fully formed yet.

She wished that she could die with that child.

-- I used to think that there was a bird that could fly from the beginning until the day it died before it landed. It had never been anywhere. That bird was already dead from the start.

Su Wan's tears suddenly fell. Her eyes were so bloodshot that they were about to split open.

Time might be able to heal all wounds, but those cruel memories would always peel open the scabbed wounds and make them bleed.

Luo Xiuxiu was frightened by Su Wan's crazy look. She didn't know what triggered her.

"Wan Wan, what's wrong?"

She was looking at the photo album very well. Why did she look like this?

Su Wan burst into tears. The photo album in her hand fell to the ground.

Jiang Xuecheng frowned. He turned Jiang Qiran around and handed him to Xu Ziyao. Then, he stretched out his long arms and hugged Su Wan silently.

"Wan Wan, don't be afraid…"

Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips. There was a hint of pain on his face, but his voice was still calm, like a mountain stream.

Su Wan choked and buried her head into the man's arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Our child… our child…"

is dead…

Su Wan did not say the last two words.

However, Jiang Xuecheng understood what she meant.

He and Su Wan knew very well that the day Su Wan was pushed into the operating theater, their child had already died in there.

That was the sin that he and Su Wan would have to bear for the rest of their lives.

No, it had nothing to do with Su Wan. To be more precise, it was the sin that he would have to bear for the rest of his life.

Jiang Xuecheng slowly lifted Su Wan's face and wiped the tears on her face bit by bit. His face was cold, but his gaze was extremely gentle.

"Wan Wan, don't be afraid… Don't be afraid, I'm here, I'm here."

"Xuecheng, I'm afraid…"

Su Wan's tears fell on Jiang Xuecheng's lapels. Jiang Xuecheng had always been a germaphobe, but at this moment, he did not care at all. Instead, he hugged Su Wan even tighter.

It was said that forgetting represented betrayal, but Jiang Xuecheng really hoped that the sad past and those heart-wrenching memories could only be borne by himself.

That was his sin.

What did it have to do with Su Wan?

If there was really retribution in the next life, Jiang Xuecheng really hoped that all of it would fall on his head. His Wan Wan was not wrong at all.

He was the one who had failed to protect Su Wan and their child.

Su Wan's heart was filled with sorrow. When she heard Jiang Xuecheng's steady and powerful heartbeat, the pain in her heart finally dissipated bit by bit.

However, Su Wan's eyes were still red and she hugged Jiang Xuecheng without any hesitation. The two of them seemed to be one.

The people in the living room stared at them with their mouths agape.

Xu Ziyao and Luo Xiuxiu were completely dumbfounded. They did not understand why Su Wan would suddenly act like this.

Anyone with eyes could see the terrifying grief on Su Wan's body.

Moreover, Jiang Xuecheng obviously knew the reason.

What had happened between Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan in the past year?!

Luo Xiuxiu and Xu Ziyao were eager to know.

However, before Luo Xiuxiu could open her mouth, Jiang Xuecheng gave her a cold look.

"Don't ask. Even if you do, Wan Wan and I won't tell you."

Luo Xiuxiu was frightened by Jiang Xuecheng's cold look. She looked at Xu Ziyao as if she was asking for help.

Xu Ziyao knew her eldest son's temper the best. As long as Jiang Xuecheng was unwilling to tell her, no one would be able to get anything useful out of him.

Xu Ziyao turned her gaze to Su Wan.

Su Wan's emotions were clearly in turmoil. Seeing how she looked like she was about to cry, who would have the heart to ask?!

"Xuecheng, I don't know what happened to you and Wan Wan these past nine months, but it's a good thing that you're back. If mentioning the past will make you sad, then it's better not to mention it."

As Xu Ziyao spoke, she sighed softly.

Suddenly, she felt a fair and tender little hand grabbing her collar.

Xu Ziyao was stunned and looked down.

She saw Jiang Qiran looking at her curiously, as if he didn't understand why the people in the living room suddenly became like this.

"Yi yi… ya ya… yi…"

Xu Ziyao was an extremely intelligent woman. She recalled how Su Wan had called her child so mournfully and suddenly asked.

"Xuecheng, did you and Wan Wan have another child who was twins with Qiran, and unfortunately died young?"
