The staff stationed at the corner quickly stopped her while Ye Hao practically rushed over to hold his wife who had completely lost control over her feelings.
“Yan Yan…” he called out his wife’s name and his amber colored eyes showed that he was hurting along with her.
He Xiyan struggled with all her might and tried to wrest herself free from the staff’s grip. Her face was flushed red. She was livid and her eyes were swollen as she glared the judges on the stand.
“How could you hand my child over to them? How could you? You are all shameless and useless officials who are only after money…. You did this deliberately,” He Xiyan yelled angrily and continued her crazed tirade against them.
Those judges pretended not to hear her and left after packing up their things. They didn’t even turn back to look at her.
The court was suddenly silent and it was so silent, there was only the sound of a woman sobbing. She cried so hard that the cries that came out from her throat were hoarse and trembling, and her sobs would tug at anyone’s heartstrings.
Ye Hao placed an arm over her shoulders and dug out a tissue to wipe at the tears that continued to flow from her eyes. He wanted to say something to console her but no words could come out of his mouth while his heart hurt as though it was dripping blood.
Yan Yan, I’m sorry!
He closed his red-rimmed eyes and could only mutter a silent apology to her. It was his fault that she was experiencing such pain.
Nearby, Mo Yixuan remained in court and saw everything that had happened. He saw her losing her composure and watched as she sobbed her heart out. He balled his hands into fists and his joints had already turned pale. He hated himself. If he hadn’t made a mistake, none of this would have happened. Moreover, he always ended up hurting her.
He was the cause of all her pain.
“Yixuan, why aren’t you leaving?” Li Qin had already left but came back for him when she noticed that he wasn’t outside. She tugged at her son’s sleeve and looked coldly at her ex-daughter-in-law. She felt a twinge of guilt but this twinge of guilt was nothing compared to the excitement and happiness that coursed through her.
She finally had a grandson. After waiting so many years, she finally had a grandson to call her own and this happiness was just like a parched land was finally welcoming rain. She hadn’t felt so happy in a long while.
“Let’s go…” Li Qin said as she tugged at her son’s sleeve. She could see that her son couldn’t bear to leave that woman but hadn’t she already remarried? In any case, Ye Hao was there to watch over that woman.
He Xiyan continued to stare blankly at the empty judge’s stand and looked at that row of dark yellow tables and chairs. She stood there dumbly like a fool until the warmth flowed out of her body and her sight blurred and everything became darker.
She stood there until she could no longer see a thing.
All her strength left her and her legs buckled. She slowly closed her eyes and crumpled downwards.
“Yan Yan…”
Someone cried out her name but it was as though she could no longer hear.
She had fainted.

The relatives from the Mo side of the family whispered and gossiped amongst themselves as they pointed at He Xiyan who was carried out of court. They had once been relatives, but they could not be bothered to show any concern for a woman who had fainted from sorrow.
