Chapter 1403 Their Perspective Doesn't Matter.
Back at Feng mansion, after Chen Rui disconnected the call, her gaze met with Yun Yuchun. But there were no warm feelings between them. While Chen Rui’s gaze were sharp and pierceful, Yun Yuchun held a prepared explanation in her eyes that she was desperate to convey.
“Rui, won’t you listen to me? Not even for once?”
Chen Rui stared at her before subtly smiling. “Listen to you? Do you think there is something left that I want to listen to from you?”

“Rui…”
“It’s okay. There is no use of having the same conversations again and again. We have got here to discuss the things related to FenFen and Xiao Xue. Let them come so that we can end it once and for all.” Chen Rui said and her words like that at once made Yun Yuchun frown.
“What do you mean?” She asked but seeing Chen Rui walking back silently to take the seat beside Shin Tingming, she continued according to her own presumption. “Rui, Li Xue might have lost her memory but don’t forget that she loves Shufen very much. She would never agree to stay away from him once she gets to remember everything.”
Hearing her say that, Shin Tingming mockingly chuckled while Chen Rui turned back at Yun Yunchun to say, “Your words surprised me, Yuchun. Like really. From when did you start caring about our Xiao Xue? I mean your history never reminds me of doing that.”
She said and her words were clearly to remind the other that her suggestion was something that was not appreciated.
Faced with indifference, Yun Yuchun was at a loss of words. But still,knowing the need of the situation, she spoke. This time in the most humble tone. “Rui, I know you haven’t liked what I did in the past. But believe me my intention was never to harm Li Xue. She is Tingming’s daughter and I have known it from the beginning. Why would I harm her? I thought it was good for her but…”
Before she could even finish her words, Chen Rui scoffed, “Good for her? Making a girl pregnant at the age when she was at the verge of attaining her dreams … from when it started to be good for her? Leaving her alone to handle all of it and carry the baby for your family, when did it turn out to be good, Yuchun? Are you sure that what you intended for her was good and not something that you planned to settle scores with Zhen Qinrou?”
Chen Rui said and her each and every word was like a jab to Yun Yuchun’s year long friendship that she shared with the couple.
“Rui, you still don’t know many things. And that’s the reason I am asking you to hear my explanation. I never left Li Xue alone. I have always been around, looking after her. It was me who saved her that night from the accident and it has also been me who has helped her in getting out of the misery five years back. I have always been a shadow to her. Believe me.”
She said and even though her words were genuine, Chen Rui was reluctant to buy it. “Were you? Really? But Do you think that it was so simple? Just with you staying around her in the shadows and helping her with safety and others, you think you can redeem yourself?”
“Yuchun, you might have walked away from the family and might have decided to stay away from your children for years. But not everyone’s the same as you. That girl who always craved for the mother’s love had received just her cruelty in return. You did even worse with her. You made her witness the same mother and family disown in the public. Do you think by remaining in the shadows you can compensate for her?”
Chen Rui said and Yun Yuchun was rendered wordless. “I …”
“You still don’t regret it. I know, Yuchun. You will never because you have that hard personality who would simply not budge from their thoughts and decisions.” Xhen Rui knew her friend better than anyone . She knew Yun Yuchun has got the hard headed personality that would never get molded or changed for anyone or anything.
“Rui, you might be right to feel that. I might have done wrong from your perspective. But from where I am seeing, I can see that I helped the two best suited people to get together. I helped Li Xue to get to the family she actually deserved. Do you think she would have been involved in your royal family if I wouldn’t have done what I have done? Do you think she would have achieved what she had achieved today?”
Yun Yuchun said and Chen Rui’s fingers curled up in a ball. Although she knew what Yun Yuchun said was not completely wrong, still at the moment she couldn’t find any better logic in her words. And that was something that was infuriating her more than anything else.
“Yuchun, you are …”
“When one is themselves not involved in the situation, their perspective about it doesn’t matter. Because at the end of the day, it’s not them suffering.”
Before Chen Rui could say anything, Feng Shufen’s cold voice interrupted the air, making his existence known to everyone present in the room.
While Chen Rui paused in her words, Yun Yuchun turned to look at her son. Her eyes got misted at his sight. But in return of her longing gaze, she received nothing but indifference in return.
“Shufen, you are here? “She called but again in response to her words, the man simply stared at her and continued after his previous words.
“Suffering is better felt when they experience the same situation as others. Unfortunately, not everyone can be as inhumane and self centered as others.” He said without mentioning anyone’s name but even without his mention, it was evident to whom all those words were directed to.
