He liked spicy food, but that was because the woman he liked enjoyed it a lot.

He had seen her countless times in her office at YX Brand, enjoying the spiciness of her take out.

After watching her a few times, he would order spicy food and eat it, imagining her eating heartily opposite him. Thus began his love for spicy food.

All while he reminisced this, he did not dare to steal a glance or his feelings would be obvious.

Once in the hot pot restaurant, Yun Xuan suggested to order an extra spicy hot pot.

"Is it really good for your healt to eat very spicy food?" Lin Ye momentarily forgot his place and exclaimed.

Yun Xuan laughed it off and didn't think that he was intruding. "I don't usually eat such extremely hot food. It's just that today, my mood is quite..."

Lin Ye understood her although she trailed off and did not complete her statement.

Today she had met someone she disliked, so her mood was ruined.

"If you are feeling very sad, how about we go somewhere that will cheer you up?"

Yun Xuan finally found something wrong about his attitude today. "Don't you have work to do?"

Lin Ye bit his tongue. It was a small habbit he had learnt to do when he was nervous. "Actually, my boss gave me time off."

Yun Xuan found it plausible. "Alright. However, I can't stay out too long. My child will cry if he misses me."

If anyone were to take close notice, her expression was gentle and her eyes were filled with immense love when she mentioned her child. It was obvious just how much she loved him.

"You love him so much, right? That tiny boy is so lucky to have you as a mother."

Unsurprisingly, Yun Xuan narrowed her eyes. "How did you know it was a boy, and a little one at that? Speaking of which, how did you know that Tyler has two identities?"

Lin Ye's heart raced. Why was she looking at him like he was a stalker? "I saw you shopping for baby clothes before. They were a male clothes. I was in a hurry so I did not come to say hi to you."

He added the last statement so it would not look strange.

"About Tyler, my boss told me. I was out with my boss today. I had just seen you and was coming to say hi when your ex rushed to you. My boss called me back to tell me that man's weakness; his two identities." Since Wan Jia had not said anything about keeping it a secret, he satisfied Yun Xuan's curiosity fully.

"Who is your boss?" Came the obvious question.

"The CEO of MAX, Wan Jia." He again said everything there was to say in response.

Yun Xuan remained silent, secretly smiling. Wan Jia sent him to help her out?

Did that mean that she did not hate her anymore?

In this lifetime, Yun Xuan could not possibly ever deserve Wan Jia's forgiveness. What she had said about Xia Rou back then was way out of line. What made her feel worse was Xia Rou's kindness towards her and Yun Feng.

Ever since staying with the tiny boy a little, Xia Rou who had missed the feeling of taking care of a baby had grown fond of him. She would invite Yun Xuan over once in a while just so she would get to hold Yun Feng.

It made Yun Xuan inexplicably guilty.

"She is lucky to have you as an employee; and you are even luckier to have her as your employer." She said to Lin Ye.

"Is there a disagreement between you and my boss?"

He had realized that Wan Jia had a complex expression that was almost regretful whenever he mentioned Yun Xuan. He was now seeing the same thing on Yun Xuan when he mentioned Wan Jia. Did these two have a fall out?

Yun Xuan laughed as an answer to his question. "Do you know, in movies and novels, as long as you are the main character, you can be forgiven no matter what crimes you commit. However, in real life, you only have to make one wrong move to be doomed as a villain forever."

Lin Ye studied her as she drooped her lashes. From his research on her, the only relative she had in Country G was her baby Yun Feng. She had very few friends, none of whom had lasted more than a year. They were all new.

She had secluded herself because of the mistakes she had made while in Country C, and now that Wan Jia was mentioned, he understood her. Paired with the mistake that he was yet to hear, the one that Tyler made to make her hate him so much, he deduced that she was trying to get away from her past.

Poor thing. .. it must have been too hard on her.

He coughed. "You're wrong."

"What?" She looked up expressionlessly.

"In novels and comics, you only have one chance. If you make one mistake, you become a villain in the audience's eyes. However in real life, you are the main character in your story.

No matter how many mistakes you made in the past, as long as you are no longer as unkind as you were when you made those mistakes, there is always a chance for redemption. If forgiveness exists in the fictional world, why would it not exist in the real world?"

For a moment, Yun Xuan remained silent. What he had just said sunk in. He meant that there was still a chance for her to regain her former friends that she lost back then when she was blinded by power?
