Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 814 - 814: A Twisted Thought

Wen Rou's life could be described as extremely uneventful.

Born at the foot of Changbai Mountain, she was only two years old when her master, the previous guardian of Changbai Mountain, recognized her potential.

Somehow, her master convinced her parents to let her go, and she was taken up the mountain. That was eighteen years ago.

Her master had cared for her until last year, when, after celebrating her 200th birthday, her master passed away, leaving Wen Rou to live alone in the vast, snowy mountains.

Just as she reached this point in her story, Ye Fei interrupted her, asking, "Don't you want to go down the mountain and see your parents?"

"Parents?" Wen Rou repeated the word indifferently, and Ye Fei noticed a flicker of another emotion in her eyes—confusion.

Yes, confusion. It seemed as if she had no real concept of her parents.

However, Ye Fei didn't think that was the case. If she truly didn't care, his words wouldn't have elicited any emotional response from her.

Perhaps deep down, she resented her parents for abandoning her.

Thinking this, Ye Fei felt a mix of helplessness and joy.

It seemed he had found another way to help Wen Rou open up.

"Maybe they had no choice. If you have the time, you should go see them," Ye Fei seized the opportunity to advise her.

Sure enough, Wen Rou's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, though it quickly disappeared. "Maybe later," she said indifferently.

Ye Fei knew he couldn't push too hard, so he changed the subject. "This is your first time leaving Changbai Mountain, right?"

"Yes. I didn't expect the outside world to be so complicated," Wen Rou nodded gently and continued her story: After her master passed away, she rarely stayed in the cave anymore. Instead, she lived and trained at the mountain's peak.

It wasn't until more than ten days after Ye Fei and his mother left that she discovered someone had been there and taken her master's belongings.

Fortunately, Ye Fei had left his name behind.

So, to retrieve her master's possessions, Wen Rou left Changbai Mountain for the first time in nearly twenty years to

Wen Rou, however, was used to such quiet moments. She sat there calmly, her beautiful eyes casually scanning the room's decor.

The uniform, mundane setup of the hotel was quite novel to someone who had spent her entire life in the mountains.
