"What went wrong?" Yang Fei couldn't help but ask.
As a son, this was the first time he'd heard about his parents being together, so naturally, he was a bit concerned.
The Fatty Taoist sighed, "If it were up to my arrangements, after they met and got together, all they needed to do was to find a place to hide under my protection and live a calm and peaceful life. They could gradually grow stronger, and once both were powerful enough, any issue could be carefully planned out. Unfortunately..."
On the phone, it seemed that the Fatty Taoist was still immensely regretful about the events of those years. After letting out a long sigh, he slowly continued, "They ran off to Imperial City, and your foolish mother got involved with people from the Imperial City's Duanmu Family. She assumed a new identity, becoming the illegitimate daughter of the Duanmu Family."
Yang Fei silently nodded.
This connected his mother to the people he knew from the Imperial City's Duanmu Family.
