Zhou Chen sought out his mother's long-time friend to inquire about the past.
Initially, the aunt was hesitant, unwilling to divulge any information.
When Zhou Chen mentioned whether there was something between his mother and Chi Chali, the aunt's eyes widened in shock, and she anxiously asked, "You already know?"
After that, the conversation flowed smoothly.
The aunt vehemently denounced Chi Chali, branding him a scoundrel for taking advantage of his mother's inebriation to insult her.
Zhou Chen bid farewell to the aunt, regret coursing through him like a bitter poison.
He suppressed the furious tempest raging within him and paid a visit to his second uncle.
Despite the tumult of the past, the elder man held no grudges against Zhou Chen.
