Chapter 530: The Secret That Can't Be Told_1

Yan Family.

Yan Ling sat on the sofa, appearing oblivious to Yan Qianhong nearby. She quietly asked Aunt Lan about her life in the Yan household.

Aunt Lan wanted to say something, but when she saw Yan Qianhong next to her, she swallowed her bitterness. She softly asserted that everything was alright.

Yan Ling, naturally, did not believe Aunt Lan's words.

A middle-aged woman barely in her fifties, was now so frail she seemed fainter than an octogenarian.

If this was considered alright, then no one in this world was living a good life!

Yan Ling comfortingly patted the back of Aunt Lan's hand, earnestly saying, "Aunt Lan, I'm not the same girl who could be easily bullied anymore. I can protect you. Whatever matters you have, you can feel safe to tell me."

Aunt Lan felt a mixture of emotion and helplessness.

It wasn't that she didn't want to speak. She feared that if she did, it would bring trouble to Yan Ling.

She was old now, halfway into her grave.
