Old Master Li was silent for a moment before saying, "That night, I explained my predicament to her. I told her that I was bankrupt and my wife was pregnant. I couldn't face her. And Ping'er said that she had money, a lot of money. She could help me get through this."
Madam was disappointed. "So you got together with her to be grateful."
Old Master Li was a little embarrassed. "Madam, I was already in my early forties at that time and could already be Ping'er's father. How could I have improper thoughts about her? Even if I did, Ping'er didn't think highly of me. She's the daughter of the Huo family."
Madam was surprised. "You knew her identity then?"
The old man said, "I didn't know. But from her habits, I know she's from a prestigious family."
Huo Xiaoran asked, "Why did my mommy commit suicide?"
