He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

In an instant, Wei Yinuo was completely stunned, never expecting Zhou Yan to do such a thing.

Her eyes widened, her face filled with astonishment and confusion, her mind blank, completely unaware of what Zhou Yan wanted to do.

Several seconds passed before she came to her senses and stammered, "Uncle... Uncle, what... what are you doing?"

Zhou Yan didn't seem to have any intention of letting go of her embrace. Instead, he gently patted Wei Yinuo's back and comforted her in a tender tone, "Your parents' affairs have nothing to do with you. Don't overthink it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo's breath hitched, her eyes instantly reddened, and her brows furrowed, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Seeing how heartbroken she was, Zhou Yan sighed softly and said slowly, "Nuonuo, you must remember that your father's actions cannot define you. You are you, unique and wonderful!"

Upon hearing these words, Wei Yinuo's tears, which she had been holding back, burst forth instantly, and her eyes turned bright red.

When Song Zhi comforted her earlier, she felt sad, but she managed to hold back her tears.

However, at this moment, faced with Zhou Yan's comfort, all the grievances and pain that had been building up in her heart seemed to find an outlet, and she could no longer suppress her surging emotions.

Large, crystal-clear teardrops, like beads from a broken string, rolled down her fair and delicate cheeks.

She didn't actually want to cry, and she didn't want to show such a vulnerable and helpless side to Zhou Yan. She wanted to always be optimistic, cheerful, and beautiful in front of Zhou Yan.

But at this moment, all that so-called dignity and pride was thrown to the winds; she only wanted to release the heavy sorrow deep within her heart.

Wei Yinuo trembled slightly and involuntarily rested her head on Zhou Yan's broad and warm shoulder, like a wounded child who had finally found a safe harbor.

She sobbed and whimpered, "Waaah... Uncle, why did this happen? Why did things turn out like this?"

In her past memories, her parents were always very loving, and the whole family was filled with a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

She has always been proud of this, believing that she has the happiest and most fulfilling family in the world and the most loving parents.

However, reality struck her like a heavy hammer, making her realize that all the beauty was nothing but an illusion.

Especially since the man who had sworn to love her mother for life had betrayed their marriage vows and chosen the path of infidelity, it was something she found hard to accept.

Zhou Yan silently reached out and gently stroked Wei Yinuo's smooth, black hair, as if trying to convey some strength and comfort to her in this way.

He said gently, "If you want to cry, then cry your heart out. Let all your grievances and resentment out through your tears. Maybe that will make you feel a little better."

"I really just can't understand it. My mother is so kind and gentle, practically the best woman in the world, so why did she have to meet such a terrible man?" Wei

Yinuo muttered to herself, her face full of confusion and resentment, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice trembling slightly.

Zhou Yan gently patted her shoulder and said softly, "Don't be too sad, Yinuo. Your mother is really a very good person, and you are also a very excellent child. None of this is your fault. You can only blame that irresponsible father."

After saying that, he sighed deeply.

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo could no longer hold back, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam.

She sobbed, "But if Mom knew about these things, she would be so, so sad... I really don't want to see Mom sad and in tears."

Just as I finished speaking, I heard someone knocking on the window.

When Zhou Yan looked up and saw the traffic police officer about to issue a ticket, he quickly let go of Wei Yinuo in his arms and fastened her seatbelt.

Just before the traffic police were about to issue the ticket, he frantically started the car, stepped on the gas, and the car shot onto the road like an arrow.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Yan's comforting words had an effect, or perhaps it was because the thrilling scene had distracted her, but in any case, Wei Yinuo's emotions gradually stabilized.

By the time they arrived at the company, she had regained her composure.

Zhou Yan led Wei Yinuo straight to Fu Lu's office, but to their surprise, when they opened the door, they found that only Fu Ya was sitting inside.

Fu Lu, who should have been working here, was nowhere to be seen.

Wei Yinuo stared wide-eyed at her elderly mother, her lips slightly parted, and asked incredulously, "Mom, what are you doing here? Where is Uncle?"

Wei Yinuo's voice was full of doubt and confusion.

Fu Ya smiled slightly, sighed softly, and said, "There was a sudden problem at the company, and your uncle rushed over to handle it. Come here, Nuonuo, come to Mommy."

After saying that, she gently waved to Wei Yinuo.

Wei Yinuo obediently walked up to Fu Ya, and then without hesitation stretched out her hands and tightly hugged Fu Ya's slender waist.

She buried her head in her mother's warm embrace, feeling the comforting warmth, and murmured, "Mom..."

At this moment, she had a thousand words she wanted to say, but the thought that those words might hurt her mother made her feel stuck in her throat, unable to speak.

And so, the mother and daughter stood embracing, and time seemed to stand still at that moment.

After a long while, Fu Ya slowly released her daughter from her arms, gently stroked Wei Yinuo's soft, long hair, and asked softly, "Does Nuonuo already know everything?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo abruptly raised her head, a look of surprise in her eyes, and stammered, "Mom, Mom, you..."

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Ya interrupted her.

"You know about your father's affair, don't you? I heard from your uncle that you saw it all?"

Wei Yinuo looked incredulous: "Mom, you, you knew all along, didn't you?"

Fu Ya nodded and then shook her head: "Actually, I didn't know for a long time; I only found out recently."

"So, Dad really cheated on me?"

Fu Ya nodded: "Mm."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo's eyes immediately welled up with tears, which rolled down her cheeks in large drops.

Fu Ya hugged Wei Yinuo tenderly and whispered, "Baby, don't cry. No matter what, Mommy will protect you."

Wei Yinuo clung tightly to Fu Ya's clothes, "Mom, what will we do in the future?"

Fu Ya's eyes were firm. "Leave him. A man who's tainted is better off without."
