The tears she had been holding back burst forth the moment Old Madam Chi said, "Your grandparents raised you."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Yunxi buried her head in the pillow and cried fiercely.
Chi Yunxi's mother, Ye Shuping, was Chi Zhenghong's first wife.
Chi Zhenghong and Ye Shuping met through mutual acquaintances. The Chi family, being large and wealthy, did not need a marital alliance or to rely on the woman's family to elevate Dijing further. Moreover, the two elderly of the Chi family were open-minded and never demanded high family backgrounds for girls; good character was sufficient. Thus, after Chi Zhenghong agreed, the two families set a date, and Ye Shuping was married into the family.
Chi Zhenghong loved having fun and often stayed out all night. When men in the elite circle gathered, they either played cards or drank, and having beautiful women around was only natural.
